The quasi-mage Domwall comes from the Fire Emblem organization, and this time he came to Grant Territory because he was originally chasing Thain.
It cannot be said that Thain is unlucky.
"Master, you are very close to becoming a formal magician, are you here this time?" After a brief conversation with the old man in white robe, Earl Grant couldn't help but ask.
The quasi-magician Domwall is much older than Grant, and he is about to enter the first level of life, so Count Grant's words are also very respectful.
Although Earl Grant is also a quasi-knight, his current background is still too shallow.
It is true that he has the potential to be promoted to a regular knight, but potential is sometimes not the same as strength.
Even if Earl Grant is expected to become an official knight in the future, it will take more than ten years at the earliest.
"Haha, I came to Grant Territory this time for your son, Earl."
"It's really not easy. He is only in his twenties and is already a senior magic apprentice."
"When I was promoted to senior apprentice, I was already over forty years old." The old man in white robe shook his head and said.
Immediately afterwards, he pointed out his purpose and said: "Our Fire Emblem organization attaches great importance to such outstanding magic apprentices."
"With the potential of your child, Earl Grant, it is not too much to join the Federation."
"It just so happens that I have to report to the headquarters during this period. If Earl Grant agrees, I can take him there directly." The old man in white robe said.
The Lycian Alliance and several surrounding human countries have many magician organizations.
I won’t mention those small, micro and unpopular organizations. Among the other large organizations that are truly prestigious, the three that rank high and have a resounding name are the Ring of Thorns, the Holy Peace Society, and the Fire Emblem Chapter.
Moreover, these three magician organizations all have their own parent organizations and headquarters.
There must be formal or above-level magicians in the headquarters, and by observing how these three organizations stand out among the medium-sized organizations, the core members of their organizations must be more than just first-level magicians.
The Fire Emblem organization seems to be very sincere. The old man in white robe, a quasi-mage who is about to be promoted to the first level, personally recommended him to join the headquarters.
Thain's treatment will arouse the envy of many magic apprentices.
Is it really because the quasi-magician Domwall values Thain so much because he has reached the level of a high-level magic apprentice at the age of twenty?
Not entirely.
In fact, the reason why the Fire Emblem Seal and the Holy Peace Society value Thain so much is because of his mastery of alchemy.
Alchemy is not something that ordinary magic apprentices can master. In addition to innate talent, persistent practice and guidance from famous teachers, it also requires the consumption of a large amount of resources.
If Thane had not been in the laboratory of his mentor Moshe Duo, where he had direct contact with and closely observed the production process of so many special magic devices, his growth rate in this field would not have been so fast.
Faced with the outspoken approach of the white-robed old man Domwall, Earl Grant showed a hint of emotion.
Befriending the magician organization is the norm for most noble knight families.
Including the reason why Thane’s mother Catherine was able to get together with Earl Grant.
In addition to their status as childhood sweethearts, another reason is that Lady Catherine's family is a magical family.
Although it is a magic family that has fallen into decline, it is said that their ancestors have produced magicians above the first level.
Moreover, there are still many magic apprentices with high levels in the family, so they can be regarded as having a place in the Lycian Alliance.
Earl Grant naturally hopes to have a closer cooperative relationship with the Fire Emblem organization, because this will not only benefit Thane, but also the Grant family.
However, as his father, Earl Grant, he could not immediately agree to the white-robed magician Domwall at this time.
It was just that he didn't know the character of his eldest son before, but after having a fight with his eldest son outside the Earl's castle, Earl Grant knew that this boy could never force him into anything.
The fact that his character is indeed like his own makes Earl Grant somewhat gratified.
But if it is too similar, it will also give Earl Grant a headache.
And after fighting with Thain and knowing his many tricks and trump cards, Earl Grant also guessed that this kid is not simple.
Therefore, whether to join the Fire Emblem organization or not, Earl Grant doesn't have to say, Thain has to give his own nod.
Immediately, Earl Grant came to Thain with the white-robed magician Domwall.
It can be seen that Thane, who has lived in the Black Magic Academy for more than ten years, is not used to this kind of banquet among nobles.
Many noble men and women were drinking and chatting quietly at the banquet.
Only Thain was wearing a slightly out-of-place black robe, standing alone in the corner of the banquet, tasting a strange fruit wine that was green and had a light sour taste.
But since Thain was half the host of this banquet - Earl Grant organized this banquet as a welcome dinner for Thain, the eldest son of the Grant family, who had returned from studying abroad.
Therefore, the small and medium-sized nobles who were invited, as well as the young men and women from the Grant family, were all quietly sizing up Thane, the eldest son of the Grant family.
This situation of being in the spotlight even though he clearly didn't fit in made Thain very uncomfortable.
Except during the period, when some hot and bold aristocratic women ogle at him, which would attract Thain's attention, most of the time, Thain would be bored and shaking his wine glass.
After being brought back to Grant Castle, Thain didn't think about escaping for the time being.
He is not a hypocritical person. Since he is forced to stay, he should stay and see.
As for his future plans, Thain also had some general considerations during the banquet.
When Earl Grant brought the Domwall magician to Thain, Thain was competing with a piece of fruit pastry in front of him.
The life of a nobleman is indeed extravagant and luxurious. Although Thain can cook, he is obviously far behind the chef of the Earl's Palace.
Delicious food and strange fruit wine passed the time of Thain at the banquet.
When Earl Grant and the Magician of Domwall explained their purpose, Thain first put down the cake in his hand, and then slowly wiped his mouth with a white napkin.
Even before speaking, he rinsed his mouth with fruit wine.
It has to be said that although Thain is not very adaptable to this kind of noble dinner, his learning ability is still very strong.
This action just now, whether it is elegance or completeness, marks that he is a pure nobleman.
Of course, if it were anyone else, no one would dare to act so pretentious in front of Earl Grant and a would-be magician.
But Thane didn't care, and neither did Earl Grant and Magician Domwall.
