Faced with the increasingly strong sense of oppression, Xiuge frowned and replied: "The mistake mainly lies in the second half."
"I actually left Walter Academy of Magic earlier... Before the annual assessment began, I had been deprived of the right to participate in the assessment. After I was taken away from the academy, I did not return to my family.
He was sent directly to Salem City."
When he told these tragic past events based on the memory in this body, Shuge's emotions were inevitably slightly affected, so his voice became deeper: "Madam, if you trace the time when I left the academy in detail,
, you can probably understand why.”
The female mage's face showed a rare look of surprise. She frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then reacted.
"Ah, I understand...it's the heir ceremony of the Ernst family, right?"
After a little calculation of the time, the female mage showed an ironic smile. She leaned on the bookshelf next to the desk, and then said: "It seems that because of the negligence of the Ernst family, the law
The committee almost lost a spellcaster with outstanding talent, don't you think? Mr. Ernst."
The moment he heard these words, Xiuge reacted.
His left hand that had been hidden behind his back suddenly opened, and the magic disk in the spiritual world began to rotate rapidly. In the blink of an eye, all the magic power that had not yet fully recovered was injected into the grooves engraved with tentacle patterns, but
Before he could make the next move, a cold feeling hit Xiuge's back.
It felt exactly like the night before.
He calmed down, slowly relaxed his left hand, and then sighed: "Madam, if I have that kind of talent, why do I need to make a living by writing these words?"
Just a few days ago, young Wei Lin ended her original study plan. As the last large caravans before the "Armistice Celebration" entered the city of Salem, which was about to be closed, as an important step with the Kingdom of Votel and Enns.
A lake-level magic consultant with "close connections" to the Te family, she was forced to accept a task from the Law Committee branch of the Kingdom of Walter.
"I completed the magic engraving yesterday afternoon."
This is not arrogance, but the result of a long period of study and countless practices.
Generally speaking, as a lake-level magic consultant, she has the right to know the details, causes, and expected results of any task she participates in. But this time, like other stream-level and raindrop-level spellcasters, she
She could only act as an "ignorant executor", and what made her even more dissatisfied was that the process of this mission was filled with a large number of anomalies.
It was under this circumstance that she accidentally met her second mission target.
The female mage's pupils flashed with blue luster, and then she asked: "When did you complete the magic inscription? And how did you complete it?"
Because the Ernst family promised Weilin in that letter that as long as these two things are completed, the Ernst family will give her the first volume of the manuscript of "Poems of the Night" as a reward.
Although the female mage has restrained her magic power, her eyes are still sharp: "It is indeed a good idea to use the gray grass to cover up the traces of magic power. It can also confuse basic detection magic and the average quality magic pendulum, but in
In the eyes of experienced veterans, this behavior is not advisable. Sometimes, the smoke of the gray grass can actually make some small marks more obvious."
At this point, Xiuge knew that there was no need to hide it anymore, so he took a deep breath and asked: "Madam, what exactly do you want to know from me?"
She had already investigated Sugar Ernst before. In her opinion, the image of this illegitimate son was really bad - subtle means of making a living, unpopular writing themes, and many other things that were circulated in the city of Salem.
Ridiculous nickname, and of course, a rather bad attitude towards magic and academics.
Wei Lin never cared about the rewards promised for these tasks, but this time was an exception.
Perhaps it was due to a violent collision or some other situation. In short, an explosion that shook half of Salem City happened just like that. Although with the joint efforts of the Legal Committee and Salem City Police Department,
, this accident did not trigger many subsequent events, but it also made Weilin question the mission she was performing.
As an outstanding member of the Legal Council, Vereen Ernst has always been confident in her magical attainments and skills.
However, after arriving in Salem City and starting this mission, Weilin discovered something was not quite right.
"I am willing to believe what you say, Mr. Ernst... The magic inscription on your body is obviously not stable yet. It must not have been a long time for you to accept it, and it was even a little sudden. Otherwise, you would not have to continue to write for these incomes.
It’s drafted.”
"You used magic in this house not long ago, right?"
"Mr. Sugar, I want to know what you went through last night and before our visit today?"
"Mr. Ernst, you really surprise me."
Xiuge felt a buzzing sound coming from his head.
But even so, Xiuge's mind was still full of doubts.
Xiuge carefully looked aside and saw an extremely complicated expression on the delicate face of the female mage.
The feedback from the magic was clear and natural, without any trace of interference, and the feedback results told her that the answers given by the guy in front of her were all true - neither perfunctory nor a carefully crafted lie.
.
This is how the questioning ended.
This thought flashed through Xiuge's mind, but then he discovered that the metal disc used to inscribe magic in his spiritual world did not seem to be affected in any way, and it still maintained its original state.
, slowly rotating at a steady speed, and the cold magic power released by the other party, which can peek into the consciousness, seems to have no way to break through the blockade of the disc, and naturally there is no way to truly glimpse one's true thoughts.
First, to ensure the safety of a special batch of cargo during the closure of Salem City and the armistice celebrations. As usual, the status of the caravan, the nature and type of the cargo will be kept absolutely confidential, and any attempt to inquire about the escort caravan's information and contact will be kept confidential.
Personnel responsible for such goods must be traced and dealt with in accordance with the rules of Investigation Order No. 6, and violent means such as "intelligent interrogation" can also be used when necessary.
…
That is, the poor illegitimate son who was "sent" to Salem City by the Ernst family.
However, her next words made Xiuge break into cold sweat.
Hearing Xiuge's question, the female mage smiled, and the mage's hand immediately appeared behind her head and quickly tied up her long shawl hair. Then she took out her magic book and put it
Open.
For example, the current somewhat difficult task was brought to Weilin by the cheap surname "Ernst".
At this time, the other party's unquestionable and resistant voice of questioning also came to my ears.
"It's over, I'm exposed!"
The female mage in front of him seemed a little too "reasonable", which was different from the members of the Legal Committee in his impression.
Every word was like an ice pick driven into his mind, so, following the pressure exerted by the other party, Xiuge gave out all the answers he had just thought of.
As a rigorous, conscientious magical consultant who always strictly abides by the regulations of the Legal Committee, Weilin has an extremely keen sense of smell, and this time, she smelled the atmosphere of conspiracy and danger in this series of abnormal phenomena.
While he was thinking about it, the female mage's voice came over.
The moment these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room seemed to be stagnant, and there was no other sound coming from his ears. In the silence, Xiuge could even see fine dust slowly drifting through the light of the mage's hand.
.
The number of words is very small and the feeling of pressure is very strong.
Her tone was very calm, but between these few words, Xiuge found that the cold feeling exerted on himself became more distinct. He wanted to adjust his sitting posture, but found that he seemed to be frozen and could not do anything at all.
move.
Although Xiuge had already understood the power of his magic before, he still did not think that those tentacles could help him solve the current predicament. His intuition told him that if he had chosen to resist violently, the result would probably be
The other party quickly "solved" it on the spot.
Of course, she never cared about this.
She has always believed that those magic books and notes handed down from ancient times should not be left in the hands of noble men as collections. Only people like herself who truly study magic knowledge should own them!
As a result, a bold idea formed in Xiuge's mind at an extremely fast speed.
She raised her hand, and the translucent mage's hand that had appeared before appeared in front of Xiuge. The palm slowly floated over, and stretched out a finger to place it on Xiuge's forehead.
.
First of all, the special batch of goods that Wei Lin was responsible for protecting was transferred privately without notifying her. She couldn't understand why someone would choose to move the goods out of the Legal Committee's premises at night and forcibly transfer them.
She went to a store on the main road in Salem City, and what made her even more dissatisfied was that an accident occurred during the transportation of these goods.
She seemed a little angry, but mostly shocked and incomprehensible.
A cold feeling bloomed in front of his forehead. In an instant, this cold current from his forehead merged with the coolness on Xiuge's back. Xiuge only felt that they were flowing in quickly like running water.
came into his own mind, and what followed was a strange feeling that his thoughts, memories and secrets were completely open to the outside world.
She looked at the illegitimate son of the Ernst family in front of her and narrowed her eyes slightly: "In addition, you can call me by my name next... My name is Weilin, Weilin Ernst."
After all, within the Legal Committee, the so-called family background can only bring more troubles.
The moment he heard the other party's name, Xiuge couldn't help but open his mouth.
The task is divided into two parts.
Seeing the blue translucent palm in front of him slowly dissipating, Xiuge finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The relationship between Weilin and the Ernst family is not actually close, because in fact, she has no blood relationship with the nobles of the Ernst family at all, but her great-grandparents were members of the Ernst family a long time ago.
A mage advisor serving a branch of the Ernst family.
"It was done after a short sleep. I don't understand the principle."
So Xiuge threw out the second half of the answer he had prepared.
In order to maintain close ties with the largest family in the Kingdom of Walter, starting from the generation of Wei Lin's grandparents, suitable candidates with magic qualifications have been selected and sent to the Ernst family for training.
The female mage came to the bed, stretched out her hand and lightly swept the quilt twice, then sat down. She said: "Obviously, in the eyes of the residents of this city of Salem, you are just a person who can help them every month."
As an illegitimate writer who contributes some joy in life, no one knows the changes that have taken place in you."
"Mr. Ernst, answer my question."
So naturally, Weilin also has the family name Ernst, which seems to be quite important.
As the most outstanding magic scholar among the younger generation of the Legal Committee, Wei Lin was completely unable to refuse this temptation.
Secondly, a member of the Ernst family sent a secret letter to Weilin, in which he hoped that she could take care of a certain illegitimate son of the family in Salem City, and that after the armistice celebrations, he would be
Bring back the capital of the Kingdom of Votel.
The magic palm floating in front of Xiuge flashed slightly, and then he heard the other party ask: "What's the process?"
The female mage smiled, she didn't comment.
After a moment of hesitation, she finally believed in the magic she was already very familiar with, so she calmed down the expression on her face, the magic color in her eyes faded, and the magic power exerted on Xiuge was also quickly absorbed by her.
The ground is lifted.
He seemed to really have no idea how he completed the magical engraving.
In Wei Lin's view, even being a magic apprentice in the most remote magic academy is definitely worthy of praise. After all, in the pursuit of knowledge and truth, attitude is more important than talent.
However, an encounter that happened late at night made Wei Lin surprised to find that the target of her mission still had a vague aura of magic. Although it was very weak, Wei Lin was sure that it was left behind by the magic ritual.
imprint.
"Why does an illegitimate son who barely makes a living by relying on vulgar literature suddenly receive the attention of his family? Why does he have the aura of magic rituals on his body? And why does he use ash grass to cover up the traces of magic in his residence?"
