Chapter one hundred and seventeen, the predicament of Chaldea
In the control room, looking at the blue room and those busy familiar faces, he felt at ease.
At least here, it's still normal.
"Doctor, what are you going to do next?"
He raised this question seriously.
"Huh? Of course, we should continue to pursue the singularity and solve it... Isn't that what you want to ask?"
Dr. Roman smiled bitterly, knowing very well. He frowned with a bitter expression. He was originally a little indecisive and was particularly afraid of taking responsibility, but now he showed a timid expression.
As a friend of the doctor, Yagi Xuezai knew that this was the expression on his face that he wanted to try to escape.
What Yagi Yusei asked was the question of "Chaldea's command authority".
Whether it's a research institute or a team that saves the world, it always needs a leader, otherwise it's just a mess. Without a leader, you have to choose a leader.
Although Fujimaru Ritsuka is the most suitable, after all, she is the one who summons the heroic spirits. But she has to go deep into the singularity and solve the problem personally, and cannot consider the problem from a macro perspective in the control room.
And to be fair, her knowledge is too shallow and she is really not qualified for the position of commander.
Yagi Yusei? Don’t be kidding, how can this guy be so powerful...
Although it is rude to say this, if Noelle died in the explosion in Chaldea, everything would be easier.
The current situation is like this. Doctor Roman himself does not want to be the commander, but there is really no one with a higher official rank than him. According to common sense, now that Chaldea has lost his command,
It should belong to Dr. Roman, the person with the highest official rank.
However, Noelle woke up.
This person's ability is recognized by all Chaldea. Although this person has the character of a typical magician, he hates the weak and despises people with weak backgrounds. But his ability is obvious to all. Whether it is tactical thinking, macro control ability, or multiple test scores
She is also very good, and more importantly, her original position in Chaldea was the deputy to director Olga Marie, which was equivalent to half the director, and she had considerable experience in the operations of the entire Chaldea.
From a capability perspective, Noel should be responsible for the entire Chaldea operations and production of combat plans.
Of course, there is a way to get the best of both worlds. Dr. Roman is responsible for coordinating the overall situation, and Noelle, as his adjutant, provides suggestions and assists him in formulating plans.
However, the problem is that Dr. Roman doesn't really want to be in the spotlight, and Noelle is arrogant and can't bear to be overshadowed by someone like Roman who is so light and soft and doesn't look domineering.
If Noelle hadn't been injured, she might have started plotting to usurp power long ago.
"How should I put it...I really haven't thought about it..."
Dr. Roman smiled bitterly and picked up his own coffee cup placed in the control room. Just as he was about to take a sip, he found that the coffee in it had been drunk long ago, and there was only a little turbid black residue at the bottom of the white porcelain cup.
He doesn't know what to do now.
"If we consider safety, it would be more appropriate to let Noelle be the combat commander, right?"
Dr. Roman smiled bitterly and spoke timidly.
He is the type who is not willing to take responsibility. As long as there is an opportunity, he will definitely retreat to the second line instead of being in the front line.
"If you ask me, Dr. Roman should continue to be the combat commander."
Yagi Xuezai said seriously.
If he is talking to other people, he always talks in a joking tone. The relaxed atmosphere, where no one takes him seriously, helps the topic move forward faster.
However, this won't work with Dr. Roman. If he didn't use a decisive tone, this man would definitely choose to back down.
"Why? From the perspective of ability, she should be better..."
"It's just because she's excellent... If she were to be the combat commander, [poor students] like Ritsuka and I wouldn't be able to survive."
He said this seriously.
Ennoel's attitude of despising the weak will probably become like this. She will definitely do everything possible to exclude Yagi Yukisai.
"...About this...actually...I'm sorry Yagi...I...have seen your file before."
"Ah, I know. As a doctor, you must see our relevant files."
Yagi Xuezhai shrugged and smiled.
"Well...your full name is: Abner Ralist Winifred."
"Yes, but this name is no longer used. There is no Abner in the Winifred family now. My name is neither Abner nor Winifred."
"Yes……"
Dr. Roman's voice was a little hesitant and he didn't know how to continue the topic.
From this surname, we can know that Yagi Yukisai and Noelle are from the same background.
The difference is the treatment of the two people.
Yagi Yukisai is not [orthodox]. His mother is a maid who serves the master in Lelist Castle. She comes from Japan. It seems that she was specially selected because of her diligence in housekeeping.
Such a maid suddenly became pregnant one day.
Everyone in the Winifred family thought that he was probably the child of some servant, so they didn't pay much attention to it.
In fact, when the child was born and saw his dark hair and dark eyes, the German magic family breathed a sigh of relief. If a person from such a big family mixed with such a low-blooded Far Eastern woman, it would be the ultimate
scandal.
Until Yagi Yukisai was about ten years old, he studied and served as a servant in the Winifred family. The lady who liked this mother and son very much would teach this lovely child some magic techniques in her spare time. However... there was
One day, she suddenly felt that this boy's magic skills were too good. So she did a test...
The result is...Abner Lelister-Winifred has the magic circuit of the Winifred family.
In other words, although he does not know who his father is, he is indeed a bloodline of the Winifred family.
Moreover...the magic circuit is quite excellent. Compared with his peers, although he seems a bit poor if he neglects training, his quality is comparable. If he learns magic systematically, he will probably become a very powerful magician.
But……
How can a noble German aristocrat accept that his bloodline is actually related to this Far Eastern monkey?
Unable to accept this, the lady fired the maid and drove her back to Japan.
As for what happened next, no one knows.
After Yagi Yukisai's mother returned, she opened a small restaurant. From then on, the name Abner Lelist Winifred disappeared from the world. Yukisai inherited the surname Yagi from his mother.
They took two characters from the name of the store.
Yagi Sekssai, this is this man's past.
This is also...the real reason why Noelle is so hostile to Yagi Yusei.
By the way, the two of them are both of the tenth generation bloodline, and...if they really wanted to compare their magical abilities, Yagi Yukisai would probably be on par with her.
Presumably, she also read Yagi Xuesai's files from the director.
Chaldea's intelligence gathering ability is too good, which is not a good thing.
"Well, there is still time anyway. Anyway, doctor, please think about it carefully. I...I'm going to check on Noelle's condition. After all, she is also my [former sister]."
