"Ah? Doesn't she particularly like those dishes? I see that every time she goes to the canteen, she always gets those kinds of dishes."
"Sonia always eats those dishes because those dishes are the most cost-effective dishes, with impeccable taste, nutrition, price, and energy. Even our swordsmanship department often chooses these dishes.
But you have a lot of living expenses and don’t eat much on a daily basis, so you may not notice the price. However, Sonia may not be short of money recently, but she still eats these dishes, which shows that she doesn’t have much pursuit of oral pleasure.
"
"So that's it... Next question, apart from the dormitory, the training building, the library, and the meditation building, are there no other places that Sonia often goes to recently? Since she became a magician, those gatherings in the past
It seems like I haven’t been to any activities.”
When Lois returned to the dormitory, she saw Adele and Ingrid discussing other people's privacy issues very seriously, and couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing?"
"Study Sonia." Adele said...
"I know you are studying Sonia, but what's the point of studying it?" Lois put her backpack on the desk with a strange look on her face: "What do you want to know? Can't you just ask her directly when she comes back?"
"That's not okay. I can't let the head of the Paw Paw Club know that I'm studying her." Adele said, "I'm doing something bad."
"How could you do something bad? That's not who you are."
"Loy!" Adele was very moved: "I didn't expect you to believe in my character so much!"
"What I believe in is not your moral character, but your IQ. You even gave up cheating on the final exam because it was too troublesome. I really can't think of what bad things you can do." Lois sat down and said: "I think your
The upper limit of evil is to just buy puffs and use a straw to absorb all the cream inside beforehand?"
"Luoyi, you don't know me well enough." Adele snorted: "If I buy puffs, how can I stop after absorbing all the cream? I'll leave one for each of you at most!"
Lois: "Okay, okay, Ingrid, tell me."
"Adele's family wants her to collect information about Sonia, such as her connections, eating habits, and places she frequents." Ingulit said calmly: "To put it simply, she is trying to find a way to analyze Sonia's secrets."
Lois, who was opening her backpack, stopped.
"……ah?"
"I can't help it." Adele complained: "When I went home, my mother pulled me into the room and told me how bad the situation at home was. There was still a chance for my father's career and title to be further improved.
, all those things that sounded very troublesome. I finally escaped and went to play with Frey. Frey was fine at first, but when we were hugging each other and looking at the stars, he actually talked to me about Sonia.
Points will be deducted for mentioning other women on a date!"
"The root of the problem is not your parents and fiancé." Lois said: "I remember your father is a shield lord, and your fiancé's family's title is gun lord. There has not been a holy magician in your family for a long time. How could you dare to covet the saint?"
The secret of the domain magician...your family is just a medium, and the person behind the scenes must be a noble from the nearby palace."
The Starry Nobility is also called the Imperial Guard Nobility, because there are two completely different systems of nobility: the Imperial Imperial Palace Nobles and the Imperial Imperial Guard Nobles.
The nobles of the imperial palace are divided into four categories: princes, princes and uncles, while the nobles of the imperial palace are divided into five categories: armor, bow, spear, shield and sword. Not only do the two have different title systems, but even the scope of their positions are also very different: members of the palace council, the legislative assembly, and the house of nobles will only serve from
They are selected from the nobles of the nearby palaces, and most of the positions of administrative officers, law enforcement officers, and city governors in the Government Affairs Department are held by nobles of the Imperial Palace.
It can be roughly understood that the nobles of the Imperial Palace form the national civil service system and execute the Queen's orders; the nobles of the Imperial Palace form the parliamentary cabinet and become the Queen's staff. Although it is not explicitly stated, the nobles of the Imperial Palace cannot serve as political officers, and vice versa.
If the nobles near the palace really want to engage in administration, they must give up their right to inherit the title, pass various examinations like commoners, become the lowest sword lord, and enter the road of political affairs officers.
Moreover, although the nobles of the immediate family are hereditary, they are not immune to demotion. The House of Nobles has its own set of complex calculation rules. To put it simply, if the nobles of the immediate family are too weak, they will be directly transferred to the nobles of the imperial palace.
Generally speaking, the status of the imperial nobles is higher than that of the emiya nobles, but for those who have political ideals and desire to control power, the emiya nobles are the only answer.
The shield lords and spear lords that Lois mentioned are the two levels in the imperial palace aristocracy. There is a big difference between the imperial palace and the near palace. The near palace nobles are often extremely difficult to be promoted, and they are often the same for several generations.
Nobility, but the Emiya nobility is different. No matter what level of title the previous generation has, the next generation will start from Sword Nobility.
Therefore, the title of Emiya does not represent your family background, but only relates to your personal rank. In the political and judicial system, promotion often equals promotion. Even if your parents are ordinary people, as long as you become a city governor, you must be
Kaijue; Even if your parents are Kaijue, but you are an ordinary operator, you can only be a Sword Lord. The main significance of the title is related to how many conveniences you can enjoy, how many permissions you can unlock, and your benefits after retirement.
It can be seen that the name of the Five Lords of Emiya comes from cold weapon warfare. Shields are better than swords, spears are stronger than shields, bows have the advantage, and armor is the most important. Adele's family is a shield lord, and her fiancé's family is a spear lord.
, which can be regarded as a good match.
The Emiya nobles are not afraid of 'falling down', but the situation is different for the close palace nobles. The House of Nobles has a very strict indicator for the latter: the number of magicians trained. Every time a magician is trained, he will receive
A certain number of points. The points for silver, gold, sanctuary, and legend are different. To put it simply, the duke must train a saint every thirty years to extend his title (sacred from generation to generation), and the viscount can relax it to one hundred and twenty.
Ten years (four generations after leaving the sanctuary).
Although you can offset the quota by recruiting sacred magicians to worship you, firstly, the holy magicians themselves can become nobles, so they may not pay attention to you; secondly, if you want to rob the holy domain, the dukes and marquises are also vying for it, so you may not be able to rob it.
Therefore, those earls and viscounts who knew that they would be demoted sooner or later would take the initiative to become palace nobles to avoid wasting their lives in the parliament.
This is also the reason why Lois is so sure that the Adele family is just a middleman. After all, the Emiya nobles have a very low desire for the sanctuary, and they have the attitude of 'live well if you don't have anything'; only the nobles close to the palace will aspire to achieve success.
The secret of the sanctuary, because it's really about class fall.
"Hey, I'm burdened with pressure that doesn't belong to my age." Adele sighed: "The taste of maturity turns out to be so bitter."
"Stop pretending." Lois went over and split her head, took her notebook and looked at it: "These contents you recorded, if you send them to the Paw Paw Club, others will dislike them. They are all Sonia.
The trivial things around her! Cross out this one, her underwear brand has absolutely nothing to do with Sanctuary."
"Why? You can't jump to conclusions!"
"She and I are from the same brand. She copied mine."
"But your size"
Snapped!
Adele covered her painful head, took back her notebook, and shouted: "Then you should guess what Sonia's secret is!"
"Why should I guess with you..." Lois sighed, moved her chair over, and analyzed carefully: "The most unusual thing about Sonia now is that she achieved the Holy Realm too quickly."
"From the time she summoned the first magic spirit in April to the meteor catastrophe five days ago, it totaled more than seventy days. If we count the day when she showed off her two-wing combat power in the friendly match, she went from one wing to
It only took Eryi more than twenty days, which means that it only took her fifty days to cross the time continent and climb to the other side of the sky."
"But Time Continent is different from the Sea of Knowledge. The Sea of Knowledge has a shortcut called whirlpool. If the magician's talent is amazing enough, he can complete the transformation of Silver Wings and faction realm in a short time. However, Time Continent does not have such a mechanism as whirlpool.
."
"The record of the fastest breakthrough from two wings to three wings recorded by the stars is the 'Hundred Days Sanctuary' of the legendary magician Mags five hundred years ago, but this was based on Mags' proficiency in moving miracles, and his
The soul energy is twice that of an ordinary magician, which means that his exploration time is twice that of an ordinary magician."
"Sonya not only broke his record, but also shortened the time to half." Lois sighed: "It is natural for everyone to suspect that she has mastered the powerful miracle of exploration."
In the world of magicians, talent cannot explain everything.
After all, no matter how talented you are, you can only break through the faction realm and delete bottlenecks from your dictionary, but magic power is a hard indicator directly linked to exploration time. It is almost like pregnancy. It takes a year to become a genius. You only need half a year, and everyone can
Think of it as if you are gifted; you only need a hundred days, and everyone will see that you are different from ordinary people, and they can barely accept it; you only need fifty days, and your appearance is almost the same as a normal person, who will believe that there is no miracle in it!
"But most of the purpose of exploring miracles is to repair the damage to the soul and offset the cost of death." Ingrid thought for a moment: "But speaking of it, Sonia did recover very quickly after she died in the virtual realm several times."
Lois nodded: "I felt it vaguely at that time, but I didn't expect that she still hid such a big trump card... Condensing the golden wings in fifty days, or she masters a method that can move safely and at high speed in the virtual realm.
A miracle, or she has a way to increase the speed of absorbing magic power, and no matter which one it is, it is the dream of the nobles nearby."
Some people may wonder that no matter how slow it is to condense the golden wings, it only takes four or five years. What is the point of saving this time? If this time is saved, can the faction realm break through to the holy realm?
But don’t forget that people’s learning ability has a golden period. The age of 20 to 30 is the best breakthrough period for magicians. The sooner you gather the golden wings, the more magic power you have to train magic spirits and the chance of breaking through the faction realm.
The bigger it is. What’s more, the punishment for the magician’s death in the virtual realm is heavy or light. Although it will not affect his actions, it will make it difficult for the magician to concentrate on honing his skills.
Even if a magician only dies three or four times a year (which is already a small number), almost half of his life will be wasted, and the golden ten years will soon pass. Those nobles in the near palace who master the miracle of exploration have a probability of giving birth to a magician in the holy realm.
The reason why they are far superior to ordinary families is because they have greatly reduced the death penalty for magicians.
Now that there is a miracle that is suspected to be able to speed up the concentration of magic power, how could the nobles nearby not covet it? How could they not use some means to obtain this secret?
but……
"No matter how much those people want, the most they can do is put pressure on Adele's family like this and force her to explore Nia's secrets." Ingrid smiled and said: "Sonia already has the ability to protect her secrets.
Able."
If Sonia is still a two-winged magician, even if the Starry Nobles cannot break the law, there is still a way to control a two-winged magician within the rules. Among other things, Adele's parents are two-winged magicians, but they
As a political affairs officer, he would be under pressure that he could not refuse.
But the problem is, Sonia is already a Holy Domain magician.
Even if she hasn't built a sanctuary yet, it's only a matter of time.
The Holy Domain magician itself is equivalent to a noble, and this level is enough to make most methods ineffective. Unless the Queen personally threatens her, not even the five Dukes can make Sonia bow her head.
"Yes," Lois lowered her head slightly: "She is no longer the same as us."
"Hey, aren't you here to help me? Come on, come on, come on, help me think of something else to write so I can take it back and hand in my homework." Adele bit her pen and urged.
"Adele, why don't you seem to care so much?"
"Why don't you care? If I didn't care, I would be in bed watching Deida Rose's new show."
"I mean, you don't seem to care about being caught between your family and Sonia." Lois said: "You don't intend to hide Sonia's information, but you also just want to perfunctory your family... I
I thought you were in this situation, either secretly collecting Sonia’s privacy, or feeling aggrieved that you were coerced by your family.”
"Because it's useless to care, it will only make it hard for me to watch dramas with peace of mind." Adele said: "I can't do such a thing as collecting privacy. My tracking skills are so bad, Sonia will definitely notice it at a glance.
."
"As for being coerced by my family...well, I'm a little aggrieved. I finally went home, but my parents and Frey actually asked me to betray my friends. But Sonia is my friend, not theirs. They
It's natural for this to happen. In addition, they still love my father and mother, and my fiancé who grew up with me. I was sulky for a while and it disappeared."
"What's more, it's not like they don't know who I am, and they wouldn't come to me if there was any other possibility. They must have been under pressure that I don't know about to bother their most lovely daughter and fiancée.
, how could I blame them?”
"So I have to write more carefully so that I can hand in my homework and they can hand in their homework."
Lois couldn't help but look at Ingrid, who shrugged and continued to guide Adele in her homework.
No wonder the fake and aloof Ingurite would help...
"But it's so bad of you to do this. If Sonia finds out, I don't know what she will do to you. Last time you used her wooden sword to chop at random, you howled so loud that even the next building could hear you."
Adele clasped her hands and begged: "Luoyi, please don't tell me! Ying Gu has promised me not to tell anyone!"
Lois did not disturb them and went back to tidy up the housework. She did not come back for several days, and the desk was covered with dust.
After the college league ends, Jianhua University is out of school for five days, and then there is a two-month 'magician independent training period', also known as summer vacation. Students can train at home or go back to school. Students with some ambitions will
Back to school, after all, the training environment at school cannot be compared to that at home.
So Adele must have half escaped and half been forced to come back. Anyway, she is always following dramas wherever she goes, and the bed at home must be more comfortable than the bed in the dormitory.
Originally, Lois should have stayed at home. She had already prepared many party activities for her summer vacation. But after Sonia and Ingrid's stimulation, she also wanted to pursue her dream of being a waterbender.
Moreover, she also had a reason to come back.
As the star set in the west, Adele put down her pen and stretched: "I'm so tired!"
Ingrid: "I've always said, why are you tired?"
"I'm so tired just writing!" Adele stood up and said, "Let's go eat! Roy, should we go to the canteen or go out to eat tonight?"
"You guys go ahead." Lois looked down at the book: "I ate a little too much when I got home and need to control my weight a little. I can just eat fruit at night."
"I think you should eat more, otherwise you won't be able to catch up with Sonia. I mean you can't beat me in terms of scale. Ying Gu, leave quickly!"
