Chapter 465 The layers of fog in the Tower of Black Mystery
Hilbert only gave Oliva a cold smile: "Are you... telling me? At this time, here?"
Although he didn't speak clearly, everyone could understand what Gilbert was asking Oliva: Are you planning to use Lute's face to suppress him in front of Archmage Lute?
Root shook his head helplessly: Gilbert didn't explain clearly, just to give him the greatest face as a teacher.
As for Oliva, she can never change her habit of being at a loss when encountering trouble.
Of course he doesn't really think that, but because of his nature of not wanting to take responsibility, what he does is no different.
The reason why Oliva's upper limit is only as high as it is now is inseparable from his somewhat weak character.
His extraordinary talent can only take him so far. What's left of the rest... his willpower and determination that even Kamanteta can't match?
It would be nice if Aisling could give Oliva a little bit of her cruel and ruthless nature.
Of course Lute knew about the flaws in Aisling's nature... Otherwise, look at those mages who are in love troubles. Regardless of men and women, how many of them would be as defeated and defeated as Aisling?
Once is enough for them to be decadent for a long time.
Not to mention, those who betray Aislin will not end well...the final death may be a relief for them.
But Aisling placed the only kindness and humanity in her heart on him as a teacher.
This is a child who will not let anyone in the world feel sorry for him.
Therefore, no matter what Lute did, he could not give up this apprentice who was a bit extreme and always caused trouble.
After all, he is not a good person, and he will not be swayed by whether others will suffer pain.
Of course, the most important thing is...
Root cut off his thoughts instantly and turned to look at Gilbert who looked disdainful: "Gilbert, you are planning to help Oliva share some of the burden..."
"Ah~" Hilbert directly interrupted Root's threat and looked at Oliva with a smile: "What is in the past is in the past, Mr. Oliva, just be careful in the future."
Everyone in the hall, regardless of their relationship with Gilbert, couldn't help laughing at this moment: This guy really hasn't changed at all.
He does have a bad temper, but he also really doesn't want to meddle in other people's business.
And in order not to be dragged into those troublesome things, Gilbert is always willing to take a step or two back... Of course, if it were anyone else, he would never take these two steps forward.
Oliva and Aisling were helpless and at a loss when facing Gilbert, but they would not show it to them.
Just like the same thing, Root would never say it to them so gently... It was a troublesome job for Gilbert, but it was a big piece of fat for them.
But similarly, with Gilbert's powerful control over the magic circle, there is really no need to waste time.
When he needs resources, selling two magic circle blueprints is what this guy does to meet his daily needs.
In Gilbert's case, it was Root who wanted him to come out and do things, but he didn't want to... That woman Aislin was always the most wary of Gilbert, wasn't that the reason?
Although Root's words were obviously just hoping that Gilbert would give up the pursuit of Oliva... They all knew the nature of their senior brother to say the wrong things when he was in a hurry.
Therefore, Root's students are accustomed to handling their own affairs. If they really have no choice, they go directly to Root, instead of Oliva, who is logically responsible for managing their junior brothers and sisters.
The fact that Aisling never regarded him as a threat has something to do with his characteristics... Logically speaking, they should all have the best relationship with Oliva, the senior brother who managed them during their apprenticeship.
Oliva is really responsible for the junior brothers and sisters that Root entrusted to him to look after: he is fair and just, and resources will never be released a second late, let alone a little less.
However, he doesn't have many people behind him to support him... One can imagine how serious his indecisiveness is.
All good feelings were completely defeated when I couldn't count on him at the most important moment.
------------------
After Hilbert completed his social task, he fell silent again.
Of course, he doesn't really have that much dissatisfaction, but he must show his dissatisfaction and sense of existence, and, expressly imply that he still doesn't intend to meddle in other people's business in the future.
Root really wanted to drag him out to do something... Although that sentence seemed like a threat, it was actually a thread thrown to him.
As long as he is willing to take over, he can become the person in charge of the Lute faction in an instant... Aislin will definitely have to be quiet for a while.
Those tasks can indeed be left to people Aislin trusts, but they can even be left to people Root trusts.
Especially when Root understands a little bit about the special characteristics of the Heinalson family.
For a person like Gilbert who is relatively lucky, once he is completely integrated into his faction, the benefits that can be brought to him are definitely not small.
It's a pity that Hill didn't intend to satisfy his little wish.
Fortunately, Root understood better... People with extraordinary luck like Gilbert cannot force things.
Letting him do something he doesn't want to do will only bring about the opposite result to what Root wants to achieve.
Hill even had some suspicion that the reason why Root allowed Aisling to offend him with her actions and Oliva to provoke him with words was because he wanted to arouse Gilbert's rebellious mentality.
As long as Gilbert couldn't tolerate those two guys standing above him and acting wild, then he would naturally accept the favor that Root kept insisting on.
Ha~ Otherwise, Hill would never believe that a mage like Root would always be so gentle to a student with a somewhat extreme personality and temper, but a good talent.
Even someone like Hill can't do it.
Although Hill's attitude is a bit unruly, compared to the previous Gilbert, it can be described as gentle!
Gilbert, who had just become an official mage, suffered from the constant shock of his spiritual sea, his violent temper, and his extreme personality... Just look at the nonchalant attitude of Oliva who was insulted by Gilbert. In fact, it was enough.
Understand, he didn't even feel too offended.
Hill didn't intend to ridicule Oliva.
But he suddenly felt something was wrong... He always felt like someone was observing him.
Not Root, then...Nicholson or Camante?
Or even the so-called Rommel?
Hilbert cheered up, used his brain, and mentally sketched over and over again how Gilbert would behave after he regained his health, and then he suddenly spoke several times when necessary.
Now, he has completed his performance.
Silently feeling the eyes that had moved away from him, Hilbert forced himself to lean on the chair, crossed his legs, and seemed to listen casually to what Root told Oliva.
Except for him, who attracted attention because of the so-called mental soothing potion, all those attention seemed to be focused on Aislin.
The woman looked unhappy. Listening to the tasks Root assigned to Oliva, she sometimes gritted her teeth and sometimes sneered disdainfully... She probably felt that Oliva would definitely not be able to do it, and she would have to let her handle it in the end.
.
Oliva is actually a bit baffling.
If he is asked to do serious things, he will do well, but when it comes to people, especially when the people inside have a certain relationship with him, he will not know what to do.
Hill didn't know that such people existed...but in the world of mages, such people were too rare.
Of course, it may also be because in the previous worlds, mages like this ended up living in seclusion and had no contact with people at all.
What Hill is now a little curious about is why the only two students who can be used by Root have this kind of personality.
This is not normal.
You know, Root is the real person in charge of the main tower of the Black Mystery Tower. Even if his chief disciple is not the successor, he must be a person with brains and skills, right?
Either Lute's real disciple is not here... Although Hill thinks this is unlikely, the secrets that have been emerging in the Tower of Black Mystery during this period make him not so sure.
Or, there is something wrong with Root himself.
In other words, Root, was he the heir to the main tower of Mist of Night from the very beginning?
From Root's style of doing things, why does Hill feel that he is more suitable for the dark mystery occupied by the Tower of Carmant?
Nicholson, on the other hand, has a confusing style that goes well with Hazy Moon.
