Hilbert actually knew that he was a little soft-hearted again.
But he also knew that after getting to know Carpenter better and better, it was basically impossible for him to treat him as coldly as before.
He was still able to stick to the rules of the magic tower that were only taught in books but not carefully, all because of Frank's previous teachings, which were very effective.
What Frank worries most about Hill is that he acts too much according to his own preferences when it comes to people and things.
When you treat people well, you ignore the rules.
But in the world of mages, when teaching students, those with better talents and abilities receive more resources than others.
This cannot be said to be fair or unfair.
Some people can be mages, while others can only be mortals. Fate has already given the most unfair choice at the beginning.
Humanity can only respect this fate.
Therefore, the magic tower will divide the mage apprentices into three, six or nine levels according to their talents from the very beginning.
Let them know from a young age that the reason why they are inferior to others is because their innate abilities are not good enough.
Otherwise, if children are allowed to feel that they are no different from others before they grow up... then when the most important time comes, seeing themselves inferior to the person next door who used to be just like him will actually make some people...
No, it should be said that most people have an unbalanced mentality.
Of course, the Magic Tower will not completely deny opportunities to those who have talent but are not strong enough.
The open library of the Magic Tower, faced with various acquisition conditions for these apprentices, gives them the opportunity to struggle for their future.
Moreover, children who perform well enough may also have the opportunity to receive rewards from a mage who appreciates them... But whether it is secrets or resources, they are just objects.
But even if no mage will focus on these children who are not qualified enough, those children who are strong enough, persistent and motivated may find their own path one day.
As for the vast majority of the rest, they will naturally follow their own inevitable destiny.
Therefore, the Magic Tower has always had a strict order... No matter which world, whether good or evil, it is almost always like this. It is formed by the experience of countless blood and tears.
Even if there are occasional exceptions, the apprentices actually understand what those exceptions have cost... People who don't want to take that path, and those who don't care about that path, will actually form an alternative order.
Therefore, even though Hill is always easy to be soft-hearted, under Fran's repeated orders, he can still stick to the principles that a mage mentor should have.
Even if he occasionally goes out of his way, it's just a little bit, never too much.
In the years that followed, Hill actually kept warning himself: You didn't even let Bonn go, so why should you be generous to those who don't even have a finger in Bonn?
Even when he became a legend and decided to leave Trasil, Hill went to give Bonn a lot of good things, even enough to let him go to the path of archmage.
However, he also adhered to the bottom line.
The only thing Hill could do was to ask Bonn if he wanted to believe in Aglaia.
Unfortunately, after much deliberation, Bonn still refused.
Although belief in Aglaia would allow his soul to belong to him after his death, Bonn still did not want to sacrifice his faith for such a thing.
Bonn, although he looks very gentle, in fact, he has always lived a very determined life.
Just like at the beginning, knowing that his existence would bring some troubles to Hill, he left resolutely when he could not give up his parents.
Later, after confirming that his parents had lost their rationality and consciousness because they had paid too much for the twins and could not recoup their sunk capital, Hill even dared to make a move. He turned around and left.
Very determined.
After living in Central City, Bonn, for so many years, I really have never looked back.
In his heart, if Hill becomes a god one day, he may give up his neutrality as a mage and choose to embrace the gods.
But just having the daughter of his Master Hill is not enough to make Bonn give up his long-standing principles.
Hill is actually very sorry.
But it is impossible for him to ask Bonn to give up his principles for this.
Although Bonn also smiled and comforted him, saying that maybe at the end of his life, when he felt his own aging and watched death approaching him step by step, his principles would be abandoned in an instant, so Hill would not have to be sad so early.
sad.
However, Hill could only choose to smile bitterly.
Hill simply doesn't believe that time can change Bonn's mind.
Therefore, even after Hill left Toril and met many admiring people and saw many good children, the defense in his heart would not be broken.
No matter how satisfied Carpenter's character Hill was, he would never have given more than this book.
And if Carpenter can learn the initial form of the Mystery Lock on her own, then she will have the capital to be on an equal footing with Russell.
The qualification level is not insurmountable, but it can only be overcome by themselves.
Hill could only wait on the other side of the level.
Mentors like him who are willing to wait are very rare.
But this is something that people from the Flan family can do.
How should I put it, although the rules are strict, there is still a little bit of human kindness left.
Hill looked at Carpenter, whose eyes were full of emotion and whose face was full of determination. He could only cheer her up in his heart.
Then he touched his pendant again.
Although he still couldn't make an artifact as powerful as the Ring of Mysrien, after studying it for so long, he still made a finished product that was at least half as effective... of course not a ring.
Hill hasn't been able to be that meticulous.
But Hill still made a lot of larger gemstone jewelry, such as large bracelets, crowns or pendants composed of many gemstones.
If Carpenter could finish the first chapter of his research on the Mystery Lock before he left this world and gain a little understanding of it, Hill would probably leave Carpenter a Mystery Lock artifact.
This is the only thing Hill, as a teacher, can do for Carpenter before she crosses that hurdle.
Hill actually didn't know that his affection for Carpenter had something to do with his experiences in the previous world... He had the same lack of qualifications, but with a little bit of luck, Carpenter's performance was so outstanding.
It was so good that Hill put aside his doubts about whether female professionals from noble backgrounds were a little too conceited.
Carpenter was not the kind of girl who was extremely smart from the beginning, nor was she the kind of girl who knew everything about the world. She even made a lot of mistakes, but she relied on her own efforts to finally become what she is today.
Standing in front of Hill, Carpenter moved him a little.
——
"Mage Drifos!" Aisling's suddenly raised voice on the giant screen attracted Hill's attention.
The female mage in red was asking aggressively: "Are you still talking nonsense?
Let me ask you, out of the many followers and students you have arranged outside, can’t you find even one who can be used?”
"Haha~" Dreyfus's face froze, "Mr. Aisling, do you think my students of the seventh and eighth rings can be used in any way?
Even if there are eight rings, it is probably, at most, about the same strength as you.
What's the use?"
Russell and Carpenter couldn't help but look at each other and verified each other that Dreyfus was indeed not holding back and was quarreling with Aisling.
After all, Aisling from the Tower of Black Mystery has always been the most popular of the Eight Rings. This is a fact recognized by the whole world.
Dreyfus compares his students to her... the disparagement is obvious, both sides together.
It seems that even if he avoids Aisling, Dreyfus is still the arrogant Derryfus.
"Teacher, why doesn't Dreyfus want to get his men here?" Russell was a little surprised, "He is not someone who will not use his men just because they are not strong enough."
"How could a man like Drifos not leave a way out for himself?" Hill smiled softly, "After discovering that there was something wrong with the rare object in his hand, he still hadn't escaped. There must be something wrong with him.
A safer escape route remains elsewhere.
It was impossible for him to touch the followers and students who stayed outside.
Otherwise, if there are only one or two people in one or two places and he doesn’t transfer them, then wouldn’t there be something obviously wrong?”
Russell nodded suddenly: "That's true.
I just said that Dreyfus was too stable.
Even if his other soul has any influence on him, he shouldn't be so honest."
Aislin on the giant screen became furious after understanding this, and a burst of silver light suddenly appeared on her hands: "Ha~ do you think I am still the same person as I was in the past?"
Hilbert was surprised.
Is Aisling crazy?
No, is that Silver Moon goddess crazy?
Didn't she see Rossello's eyes nearly pop out of their sockets?
No matter how stupid Rossello is, he wouldn't think that Gracia would let his clone become the incarnation of the power of Silver Moon, right?
No... Hill clicked his tongue.
This should be that 'Aisling' woke up because her soul was occupied too much by another person, so some of her mechanisms were triggered?
Therefore, every word Aislin says now does not necessarily mean who is saying it, right?
This is really...
Even Hill couldn't deduce what Aisling's future would be like.
