Chapter 11 The Yearning of Ordinary Nobles

Phew, the little boy Hawke was drinking the refrigerated sky blue. He spit it out very rudely after hearing Lucien's answer. The expressions of Viscount Turner and several other nobles suddenly became solemn, and they looked at Lucien suspiciously.

Well, they communicated with each other with their eyes.

Kailin smiled subconsciously and wanted to say, "What a coincidence, you are also Lucien Evans", but something seemed to flash in her mind, causing her mouth to open slightly, and she could not say this sentence.

Words come.

Although I have never seen Lord Lucien Evans and his portrait with my own eyes, the nobles who are pro-Magic Council have long spread the appearance of this great arcanist throughout the aristocracy: black hair, black eyes, medium height, handsome appearance,

Outstanding style, gentle and restrained.

Since there were not 10,000 but 8,000 young men who fit this description, Kailin was not surprised when she saw Lucien. But when he announced his name, the description seemed to match the real person. He had the same black hair.

The same black eyes, the same handsomeness!

Wringing her hands together, Kailin asked with a trembling voice: "Is it Your Excellency the Order of Elements?"

The fact that Lucien became a legend is still kept secret, and the professional name of "Atomic Control" has not yet been known. Therefore, after thinking about it, Kailin asked using the nickname "Elemental Order", just like Douglas, the "Magic Chosen"

Nicknamed "Arcane Emperor".

"I don't think anyone will impersonate me." Lucien replied with a smile.

"Really?" Hawke didn't bother to wipe his mouth and looked at Lucien with bright eyes. Lucien was immediately reminded of the look in the eyes of the little crystal Aphris.

Lucien smiled and nodded, but he did not do anything to prove that he would not hide his identity because of other people's praise in person, nor would he take out any tokens or cast any magic to prove his identity because of doubts.

If you want to believe it, just believe it. If you don’t want to believe it, don’t believe it. Anyway, it won’t have any impact on you.

Kailin still had doubts, but her father, Viscount Turner, said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you are the truth of the elements, holding the scepter of time and space. I praise you for the great changes you have brought to our lives. We used to be like

They are barbarians in the west of the Shahran Empire. Only now do they understand what civilization is.

Is he really the Lord of the Order of Elements? Kailin asked her father with her eyes. She remembered that her father had never seen Lord Evans either, otherwise he would have recognized him just now.

Turner quietly nodded to his daughter. Compared to Hawke and Kailin, these sophisticated nobles can think of more things. Not only the description of appearance, but also the origin of His Excellency the Order of Elements. He is from Alto.

One of the brightest stars in the history of music was born in a poor family and is Her Majesty the Queen's lover. The Wellesley family also comes from Aalto and is also born in a poor family and is favored by Her Majesty the Queen...

With so many details connected, they naturally confirmed Lucien's identity, and he had already seen the two fantasy rings on Lucien's right hand, which were vaguely the rumored "Holm Crown".

"I just promoted this process. In fact, with the development of arcana, such social changes are bound to occur." Lucien added in his heart, especially the parliament still needs to fight against the church, as well as the nobles and ordinary people.

support.

Next to him, Hawke got the adult's confirmation. He suddenly became excited and scratched his head vigorously, but he didn't know how to express his feelings. Finally, under Kailin's gaze, he rushed to the mahogany coffee table in the small living room and picked up the tea table.

The paper and pen placed on the lower floor looked up at Lucien eagerly: "Sir, can you sign your name for me? I want to look at it and inspire myself to learn magic!"

In recent decades, as one outstanding opera after another has deeply affected the people of the Kingdom of Holm, their pursuit of outstanding singers and favorite characters has gradually increased. I don’t know when, people have been sending flowers and asking for autographs.

action.

Lucien looked at this scene with amusement, took the pen and paper, and wrote a sentence.

While writing, Lucien cursed in his heart. Sure enough, there are limitations of the times. If he simplifies the magic circle for taking photos, makes a magic camera, or even integrates the camera function into a mobile communication item, then Hawke should not be a simple person.

Instead of asking for an autograph, "Sir, can we take a photo with you?"

Unexpectedly, the person he admired in his heart was actually willing to sign his name. Hawke's little face turned red with excitement. He took the paper handed back by Lucien with thanks and anxiously glanced at what he had written. Kailin next to him was also curious.

He looked up excitedly.

On the paper are two rows of fancy words:

"I hope little Hawke will study hard and make progress every day."

"——Lucien=Evans"

Huh? Both Hawke and Kailin were stunned for a moment, feeling that the grammar and sentences were a bit strange, but they were soon covered up by their happy emotions. They carefully admired them over and over again as if they had obtained the most precious treasure in the world, and then carefully folded and put them away.

Put it in your pocket.

Although Viscount Turner was also excited, he still smiled calmly on the surface and said: "Hawke has always wanted to learn magic since a few years ago, but the radical sect was still there at that time, and we small and medium-sized nobles did not dare to cross the line too much.

Now it's fine, we can finally send him to Alline to study openly. Mr. Evans, don't know which magic school to choose?"

The most important thing is that if you become a magician at that time, you will have no inheritance rights.

"Really?" Hawke became even more excited. He looked first at his uncle and then at his father, Stevens, Baron Hawke, with sincere and bright eyes. After receiving the affirmative answer, he was so happy that he seemed to be suffering from agitation.

Lucien simply said: "It depends on which magical fields Hawke's ideal is?"

"Elements! Alchemy!" Hawke said decisively.

"Douglas Magic School and Aalborg Magic School are both fine." Lucien had been a teacher at a magic school, so he knew a lot about it.

Kailin summoned the courage to ask: "Sir Evans, is it too late for me to learn magic now? I'm already an adult... If you want to learn medical magic, which school should you go to?"

"As long as you have perseverance and basic talent, it is never too late to learn. Medical magic belongs to the necromancy system, and it requires an understanding of the structure of the human body. It is inevitable to deal with corpses. You have to think about it, Arlinge Magic School

I'm relatively good at this aspect." Lucien said frankly, and then asked a little curiously, "I heard you discuss alchemy items before, and it seems that you know more about this aspect and like it more. I wonder what other types of products you want?

Say whatever you want, don’t be afraid, I’m just looking for more inspiration.”

"I want to fly, alchemical items that ordinary people can fly!" Hawke was very envious of magicians and sky knights who could fly, and he also yearned for airships.

Hmm, airplane, or Doraemon's bamboo dragonfly? Lucien smiled and looked at the others.

After Kailin heard that she was going to deal with corpses, because she was prepared, she did not turn pale with fear. Instead, she looked at her mother worriedly and deliberately deepened the exchange of alchemy items: "I hope that magic phonographs can be popularized, and I hope there will be more

Image magic items like it allow us to enjoy opera at home."

Turner smiled and said: "What I hope most is of course the popularization of alchemical potions that can extend life, but..."

He believes this is difficult to simplify.

"Magic steam trains are not common enough. Ninety percent of the cities are not connected yet, and there are no similar alchemy items to replace them from cities to small towns, villages, and cities. We nobles can use carriages, but the burden on ordinary people is higher.

Big." Baron Stevens heard that Lord Evans was more concerned about ordinary people, so he deliberately raised his opinion in this regard.

During the exchange, rapid footsteps came, and Alisa appeared at the door, her eyes still red: "Little Evans and Little John are back!"

When she called, the staff on duty said that John had returned early, so after notifying Joel, she hurriedly went to the door to wait. Fortunately, within a few minutes, John arrived home on horseback.

John's figure appeared behind Alyssa. He looked quite burly in silver-white full-body armor. After seeing Lucien, he quickly stepped forward with an excited smile on his face, then raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist.

It seemed that he wanted to give Lucien a slap on the shoulder like he used to say hello, but he became sluggish just halfway through the movement, and his expression was quite stiff. It seemed that the change of identity, the relationship between the magician and the knight, and the unfamiliarity of several years, made him

He is a little reserved.

Lucien stepped forward with a smile. He also raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, moved straight forward, and hit John on the right shoulder:

"haven't seen you for a long time."

John laughed from the bottom of his heart, extended his right fist forward, and also gave Lucien a shoulder blow:

"Just come back."

He didn't say much, just one simple sentence melted away all the alienation over the past few years.

The dance had officially begun, Alyssa went out to greet the guests, while Lucien, Joel and John continued to reminisce in the small living room.

"Little Evans, was it your recommendation that I go to the Musicians Association?" Joel said with a ruddy face and a drunken look, and his blond hair had turned gray.

Looking at his very happy father, John smiled and said: "Dad, the dance has just started and you drank a bottle of golden rum. This is not okay."

"I, I'm happy, little Evans is finally back!" Joel said with a thick tongue.

Lucien chuckled: "Uncle Joel, I think you took the opportunity to drink. Aunt Alisa must have limited your alcohol intake."

"Little Evans, you haven't answered my question yet." Joel looked around and talked to him.

Lucien shook his head: "Natasha thinks that Uncle Joel has good skills and can give lessons to the musicians in Rentat."

"Her Majesty the Queen is really discerning." Joel is quite proud of the improvement in his musical level.

"Where's Alvin?" Lucien suddenly thought of Alvin.

Joel smiled and said: "Evan doesn't want to attend this dance, and went to the manor outside the city with a few noble companions. Alas, he has never been able to stimulate the power of his blood. Recently, he has become very interested in alchemy items. I wonder if he can still learn magic?

"

"Send Alvin to Douglas Magic School to try, and I'll talk to them." At this point, Lucien added, "I don't have much time to be a teacher now, and the method of teaching students tends to be simple and crude, not solid.

If it’s basic, you can’t adapt to it at all.”

"I know, so I just want to send Alvin to magic school." John understood.

Joel glanced at John: "Before you care about Ivan, you should care about yourself. You are more than a year older than Little Evans. Go to the dance quickly. I will accompany Little Evans."

John, who had always been calm and composed, couldn't help but blush slightly at this moment, and froze in his seat, not knowing how to react.

Lucien saw this and deliberately helped him resolve the awkward atmosphere. He took out a key and handed it to Joel: "Uncle Joel, this is my villa in Arlinge. You can go on vacation when you are free. It is dangerous."

I’ll go there sometimes...This is the address of my magic tower..."

Joel nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Under the urging of Alyssa outside, John finally stood up and said: "Lucien, let's talk after the dance."

"Go quickly, I'm about to get married, and you don't even have many female friends." Lucien smiled and pointed outward with his chin.

Joel was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Then I wish you and Her Majesty the Queen the best."

John then sighed with emotion: "The scene of my childhood seems like it was just yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, everyone has grown up and has their own family. Time is really full of emotions, and gives everyone a different future..."

Yes, sometimes the memory of Aalto is very clear, as if it happened just now, and sometimes it is very blurry, as if it had happened in the previous life. Time is like water, leaving its mark but diluting the taste.

On New Year's Day, 825, the cold wind was steep.

Annick walked into the villa with many periodicals such as "Arcana" and "Magic", his expression was full of contemplation: "There are more and more repairs to the electronic energy levels, orbits and quantization of the new alchemy, but it seems to be getting more and more...

It deviates from the normal direction and even goes against the original idea.”

"Is it time to look for another direction? Have we forgotten something?" Splinter in the hall also frowned.

During this period of time, including those questioning Grand Arcanists and High-level Arcanists, they have been tinkering with the model of the new alchemy. However, as more problems were discovered, they all had a hunch that the new alchemy would

Alchemy seems to have reached a dead end, and some of the original things must be abandoned in order to find its true direction.

Annick closed the door and looked at the location of Lucien's Magic Tower: "The teacher seems to be aware of this problem. He has not published a paper in the past two months."
