After carefully introducing the regional distribution and functional facilities of the living floor and assistant working floor to Moriarty, Heyana took him to a door at the back of the assistant floor. Then she unlocked the door, and inside was a roughly
The 20-square-meter room has a workbench, a chair, and a simple single bed.
"Moriarty, this is your room, but it's a little smaller." Heyana said to Moriarty apologetically.
"This is already very good, cousin, thank you." Of course, Moriarty never expected to occupy an entire floor by himself like Schmidt. That is the privilege of the tower owner. Besides, every inch of space in the mage tower is worth every inch.
, now that he has such an independent room, he is already taken care of.
"As long as you are satisfied." Heyana shook her head, and then handed a golden key to Moriarty: "This is the key to the door, please keep it. If you lose it, you can only ask dad to open it.
Already."
"Okay." Moriarty thanked him, took it, and put it away carefully.
"My workshop is right next to yours. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time. It's okay." Haiyana pointed to the room immediately to the right.
"Well, I'll remember it, thank you."
"But please note one thing. If it is not necessary, please do not interfere with the work of other mages, especially dad. Otherwise, it will cause trouble to everyone." At this time, Haiyanna said with special concern.
"Yes, I understand." Moriarty glanced at the other closed doors on the assistant floor and nodded seriously.
Heyna has just mentioned that in addition to Moriarty and her, there are three other low-level mages working in this mage tower. They are all members of the studio and are employed by Schmidt.
.However, these three mages are currently at work, so Moriarty cannot see them immediately.
"Okay, you should get familiar with it here first. I'll prepare lunch, and you can come to dine in a while." Like Moriarty, Heyana is still just a mage apprentice. So in addition to learning magic at Hockenheim
In addition, he also serves as the life assistant of the Mage Tower: "In the afternoon, I will accompany you to the college to go through the admission procedures. Don't worry, with dad's recommendation, it will be no problem." After saying that, the girl smiled at Moriarty again.
, ready to leave.
"Cousin Haina, please wait a moment." Suddenly, Moriarty stopped her softly.
"Well, is there anything else?" Heyana turned around and looked at Moriarty patiently.
"Cousin, thank you for taking care of me all the time. The "First-Level Spell Theory" and "Elementary Alchemy Guide" you selected for me were very useful and almost saved my life." Moriarty first told Haierna
He bowed deeply and said sincerely.
"No, no need..." Seemingly "scared" by Moriarty's formal thanks, Heyana waved her hands repeatedly.
"So, in order to express my gratitude, please accept this gift." As he said this, Moriarty took out a small blue velvet box from his arms and handed it to the other party with both hands: "Although it is not particularly precious.
Something, but I hope you like it.”
"This..." Heyana glanced at the velvet box, then at Moriarty, thought for a moment, reached out to take it, and then opened it. Inside the box was the exquisite mermaid brooch.
"It's so beautiful." Haierna looked at the "mermaid" on her palm and couldn't help but cover her mouth with her left hand, with a look of joy in her eyes.
"Isn't this very valuable?" However, Haiyana did not take out the brooch directly, but asked cautiously.
"No, it's just average." Moriarty shook his head gently.
Eight hundred Erathian gold coins may be a huge amount of money for civilians, but for mages, it is just the price of a basic magic book. So from this perspective, the mermaid brooch is really not an expensive gift. Of course.
, if it were not used as stolen goods, the actual value of such a brooch would definitely be doubled several times.
"Please cousin, you must accept it, because only a beautiful girl like you is worthy of it." Seeing that Heyna really liked this brooch, but seemed to be hesitant, Moriarty lost no time in persuading her.
"Then...Okay. Thank you, Moriarty." The black-haired girl's fair cheeks were slightly flushed, and she lowered her head and whispered her thanks to the gift-giver.
"You're welcome."
"See you at the restaurant later."
"See you later."
After Heyena left, Moriarty walked into his workshop and closed the door.
"Oh, a smart young man who is very good at pleasing girls. It seems that the education of the aristocracy is not without merit." At the same time, Schmidt stood in his laboratory, looking at a silver mirror as tall as a person.
, said to himself in a neither complimentary nor derogatory manner. And in the mirror, it was the door that Moriarty had just closed.
As the master of the Mage Tower, Schmidt can monitor all public areas through the surveillance system in the tower. And if necessary, even the assistant workshops assigned to each studio member can be monitored. Of course, most of the
Some mages do not have the bad habit of stealing money. Because those who cannot successfully control their own desires cannot become a qualified mage at all.
When he saw Hyena accepting the gift and leaving, and Moriarty entering his workshop, Schmidt interrupted the image in the silver mirror, and the mirror then returned to the appearance of an ordinary mirror.
There is no doubt that Moriarty has successfully left a good impression on his uncle. Whether it is his basic magic ability or his way of dealing with people, they actually far exceed the passing line in Schmidt's heart, and can even be called excellent.
Not bad. However, all this is just the beginning. Moriarty may still have a long way to go before he can truly gain the trust and approval of mid-level mages who are rigorous by nature and even somewhat rigid and dogmatic.
After staying in his new workshop for about two and a half hours, Moriarty came out and headed to the living floor on the first floor.
Because the teleportation array between floors in the mage tower has already been programmed, you only need to cast a trace of mana as a catalyst to activate it and go to the floor you want to go to (of course within your own authority).
On the contrary, if you are not a mage, you will not be able to use the teleportation array to travel within the mage tower, unless there is another person with magic power who is willing to carry it through.
Having begun to gradually get used to the dizziness caused by the teleportation of the magic circle, Moriarty just concentrated his attention before stepping out of the circle and standing in the living layer.
"Moriarty, are you here? Sit on the sofa over there, lunch will be ready." The living floor is basically a large room, but it is divided into several functional areas of different sizes with different furniture and furnishings, so you are in the kitchen
The busy Heyana saw Moriarty at a glance, and then said with a smile.
"Okay, no rush." Moriarty also responded with a smile, and then walked to the leisure area on the side unceremoniously, poured himself a glass of water from a small bar, and then sat down on the sofa.
Of course, in addition to water, there are three or four other juices in the bar, but there is no alcohol. Because most mages are prohibited from drinking alcohol, because alcohol can paralyze people's nerves and affect the mages' spellcasting. But at this point
, Moriarty would not have done a good job. And if Moriarty is caught drinking by Uncle Schmidt in the future, he will definitely receive a severe reprimand.
About ten minutes later, Haiyana prepared lunch and brought it to a long dining table on the other side.
"Moriarty, it's time to start dinner." Heyana greeted while setting the tableware.
"Okay." Moriarty put down the water glass and came to an empty seat at the dining table to sit down. At this time, the plate in front of him was already filled with a portion of creamy salmon pasta. At the same time, in a mug next to him,
And a large glass of fresh tomato juice.
"It smells so good!" Moriarty leaned his head forward, took a big whiff of the white mist rising from the macaroni, and immediately praised it loudly.
"Haha, thank you. Eat it quickly, otherwise it won't be good if it gets cold." Haierna smiled nicely and sat down opposite him.
At this time, the girl had already pinned the exquisite and beautiful mermaid brooch on the chest of her robe. Seeing this, Moriarty also smiled with satisfaction.
"Well, it tastes really good." Moriarty took a piece of fried pink salmon and put it into his mouth along with the creamy macaroni, chewed it, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
"Are you still used to it? I heard that the nobles in Erathia are very particular about their diet, but in Bracada it's much more casual. So I'm worried that you won't be used to it." The attentive black-haired girl kept observing Mori carefully.
When Artie's expression confirmed that he really liked the lunch he made, he smiled happily.
"This macaroni is delicious, Cousin Heyana. Your cooking skills are really good." Moriarty put down his fork and smiled at the girl: "Actually, in Erathia, the meals of the nobles are not as legendary.
So luxurious. In some places, the pulp is cooked in a pot before eating the fruit. Haha, I can’t imagine it.”
"Really? Can fruit still be eaten like this?" Haierna immediately showed an incredulous expression, obviously attracted by such interesting rumors.
"It's true." Moriarty nodded, and at the same time inserted a large piece of macaroni: "So if cousin, you are willing to go to Erathia to work as a chef, there will definitely be many nobles vying to hire you." Moriarty said
Artie said with a slight exaggeration, and then swallowed the macaroni on the fork in one bite.
"Haha, I don't believe it." Heyana shook her head cutely. She didn't seem to be that easy to deceive, but her smile became even brighter.
"Eh? Cousin, do you only eat so little?" At this time, Moriarty looked at the dinner plate in front of the girl and asked strangely. Because there was only a piece of white bread and a few slices of apples.
"That's...a lot." When hearing this question, Haiyana couldn't help but blush.
"Oh." Looking at the girl's shy expression, Moriarty understood something. It seems that whether it is the earth world or the magical world, losing weight is an unavoidable and eternal proposition for girls.
"So, aren't the other mages coming to dine? And where is Uncle Schmidt? Is it too rude for me to eat first?" Moriarty quickly turned around without intending to arouse the black-haired girl's shyness again.
Picked up a topic.
"Dad, they are fine. You will know in the future that mages are like this when they are working. They will not be hungry or thirsty. When they can't stand it anymore, they will naturally come down." Said Haiyanna.
There was a little helplessness and a little bit of loneliness in his eyes.
Yes, a girl lives in such a cold mage tower with no friends and no one to talk to every day. How can she let her go when she is lonely?
"Cousin Heyana, if you don't disturb me, I hope to eat delicious food here every day. Whether it's breakfast, lunch, dinner, or midnight snack, is that okay?" At this time, Moriarty suddenly became serious.
He looked at Heyana and said.
"Of course, okay, every day." The girl was stunned for a moment, then slowly laughed, very happily.
