"What bastard is so rude?" Allen complained silently in his mind, "Didn't you see my doorbell?"
But despite saying that, he still stepped forward and opened the door.
There is a person standing outside the door.
The man was alone, wearing a simple linen shirt and shorts, without a cane, and without an entourage. He was incompatible with the gorgeous and prosperous environment of the Xicheng District of the capital.
"Why are you here?" Allen quickly recognized this person and was a little puzzled by his sudden visit.
He remembered that during the assessment in the Mage Tower, it was this person who closely followed him and the noble lady Selina Solomon and became the third person to climb the three thousand steps.
Allen was deeply impressed by him, on the one hand, because this man had dark skin, slightly curly hair, and seemed to have colonial origins. His temperament was so forthright that it was almost violent, which was completely different from the Braden people who paid attention to gentlemanly demeanor;
On the other hand, it was because this man was kicked out of his half-plane by the "Father of Steam" Mr. Walder before he had time to introduce himself, which made Allen feel a little funny and a little sympathetic to his experience.
"Who is he?" Howard took a step forward and asked Allen with a frown.
"I don't know either," Allen shook his head, then turned to look at the visitor, smiled awkwardly, "How about... you should introduce yourself first?"
"Gary Buegaard, from the cyberspace," the man said, "you must be the famous magic wizard Alan York!"
Allen replied humbly: "I am Allen, but I am far from a wizard. I am just an ordinary student who is about to enter the Mage Tower to study."
"As long as I'm not looking for the wrong place," after hearing this, Gharib couldn't help but cursed, "Damn it, how many properties does your family have in the capital? I asked dozens of people to inquire about it and made countless mistakes.
, I just found it here.”
"To be honest, I don't know," Allen said apologetically, "I'm sorry for causing you such trouble."
"Anyway, I just need to find you in the end," Garib waved his hand impatiently, and then said angrily, "Alan, do you know? That old guy Walder kicked me out without even giving me a chance to take the test.
It's a hell to be out!
"What's wrong with brute force cracking? Why am I destined to not be an alchemist if I use brute force cracking to crack the 'Gate of Wisdom'? This is simply discrimination! Humph, I reached the finish line earlier than that damn bastard Howard."
"Gharib, you should speak more tactfully in front of the parties concerned!" Allen couldn't listen anymore, so he coughed dryly and interrupted Gharib's words.
Only then did Garib notice that there was another person standing next to Allen.
The man was not very tall, had a thin build, wore a monocular eye, and had neatly combed short chestnut hair. He looked distant and indifferent.
"Are you Howard?" Gharib asked with a frown.
"Exactly." Howard nodded.
"Well," Garib said, taking off a glove and throwing it at Howard's feet, "The reason why I came here today is to challenge Allen. However, since you are here too,
Then I might as well challenge you.
"Of course, we have no grievances and there is no need to fight to the death. As long as we defeat each other, we will end the duel.
"I just want to prove that old man Walder's concept is wrong. As long as I have absolute power, I can use brute force to beat the shit out of you guys who are playing tricks."
According to the rules of Braden Kingdom, throwing gloves in front of the other party means "proposing a challenge", which is a humiliating behavior. The party whose gloves are thrown can either accept the challenge or admit to being humiliated.
Under normal circumstances, gentlemen will not refuse such a challenge for the sake of their own honor.
Moreover, looking at Gharib's attitude today, it seems that as long as Howard does not accept the challenge, he will continue to pester them.
Thinking of this, Howard was ready to pick up the gloves.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he bent down, he was stopped by Allen.
"Let me do it," Allen said calmly, "He is already an official magician, and he has learned meditation. You can't beat him."
Official magician?
Howard raised his head and glanced at Garib, feeling a little surprised that this person had already advanced quietly before entering the Mage Tower? Is there more than one pervert like Allen?
As for Ghalib, he snorted coldly, feeling extremely unhappy that his biggest trump card had been exposed all at once.
Half a year ago, while going out to buy groceries, Garib met Hester, the famous wind magician from the Mage Tower, and was taken in by the other party and accepted as his student. Therefore, the Mage Tower in the demiplane of Merlins
The assessment is just a formality for him.
Later, as soon as he passed the examination, Magician Hester couldn't wait to teach him the method of finding the Destiny Star together with the meditation method, making him an official magician in advance. And now, he has begun to use meditation to
Drawing magic from the void, and learned to use magic spells that are truly powered by magic.
This is also the biggest source of confidence for him to come to find trouble this time. No matter how strong Allen's mental magic is, can it be stronger than real magic?
"You come here, come here, don't wait any longer!" Garyb shouted, "After all, you are Walder's student. Your teacher insulted me, so it's up to you to repay the debt!"
"Alan, are you so unsure of me?" At the same time, Howard smiled and said to Alan, "Although he is an official magician, I have also learned several mental powers from you in the past few days.
Magic spells, and my magic talent is still 'excellent'. It should be more than enough to defeat him."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
Seeing Howard's confident look, Allen stood aside silently and stopped trying to stop him. Anyway, with him on the side to take care of everything, there was no chance of any accidents in this duel.
"I accept your challenge." Howard said as he bent down and picked up the gloves that Garib threw on the ground.
"Very good," Gharib raised the corners of his mouth, showing a surging smile, "Then I will take action."
After he finished speaking, he raised his right hand while reciting the incantation.
Then a simple and crude wind blade made a "swishing" sound and flew straight towards Howard's head.
Seeing such a scene, Howard's expression did not change and he read a word calmly.
