Feel the touch of the staff in his hand, Skoll, who just turned 30 this year? Savi took a few deep breaths of the fishy sea breeze mixed with Neosfia, which calmed the beating heart in his chest a little.

He knew that the person he was going to ambush tonight might be the most formidable opponent he had ever faced in his life. As a result, even this elite mage born from a famous arcane family could not suppress the tension in his heart at all. However, to my surprise, I never had too much fear.

"Sure enough, I was born to be born for big scenes." He thought about it so beautifully, but he didn't realize that although he was a descendant of a famous family of Alpha, he actually experienced a very limited "big scene". In comparison, his friend, who is also a battle mage of the Learned Alliance? Carter, on the other hand, had a completely different opinion.

"I don't think you're right." The battle mage who was a year older than Young Master Skaul said, "In this year, the one we heard the most in the Federation was Lu Xi? The name of Berencaster, the blue bird over Farahals, the guardian of the Black City, the liberator of Henas, the crusade against the demon gods, the person with so many titles, it is impossible for him to be just a lucky person by chance, as the son of the Weitbach family said. Even the old man has a very high opinion of him. ”

"Duyd is an idiot, I already knew that! Poor Lord Turner, the hero, but the son is an incorrigible waste, and the daughter is just a submissive little cutie, well, although it is indeed a poor beauty. Oh, poor Violet Weitbach family, the next generation can only count on the talents of the side line. It is impossible to stand at the head of the faction again. "Skoll? Savi sneered: "I've never underestimated Lu Xi? Belencaster, so not only did the two of us come, but we also brought our minions and the elite night owls seconded from the Dalster family. No matter how strong he is, there is only one person after all. ”

You're underestimating him right now! Birla? Carter thought. A man who can kill seven in and seven out on the battlefield of Farahals, and can lead the remnants of less than one-tenth of the local troops to hold the Black Man City. A person who can go deep into the dark canopy of Henas to kill the demon god, even if his exploits really have a lot of luck factors, his own ability and quality can also be seen. Such a genius may have already exceeded the limit of the imagination of mortals of my generation, how can a "large number of people" do it?

However, Skoll? Savi wasn't convinced. In his bones, he thinks Lu Xi? Berencaster is just a young man in his twenties, and even if he is a genius, he is definitely not much stronger. Ingrained common sense as a hereditary Arcanthocracy. Let Master Scowl trust his own judgment.

I haven't been to the front line, I haven't faced a real test, I haven't fought with the real top strength, even if I have a good background, I'm just a frog at the bottom of a well. Carter thought so secretly.

However, after all, he was only a retainer of the Savi family, and he was not in a position to make irresponsible remarks about a descendant of the family who might compete for the position of the eldest patriarch in the future. Yes, although Carter is also a magician, he is a commoner born in the territory of the Savi family, and the boy has been tested for excellent magical talents. He was accepted as a disciple by the head of the Savi family, and was also sent to study at the Central Academy of Magic. In that period. Also studying at the Central Academy of Magic, there is also his young master, Skoll? Savi.

Bora and his young master get along quite well, and the relationship between the two is so good that it seems to be wearing a pair of pants, and with his own assistance, Skoll? Savi was also a man of the year in the Central Academy of Magic during that time. And in many occasions that are not too formal. Skoll also very solemnly addressed himself as "my friend",

But that being said, Bora? Carter himself knew very well that he was a retainer of the Savi family, a close friend of the Scowl son, and in fact a master and servant through and through. He knows better. The young master may have a little bit of friendship with himself, but it is more of a very traditional means of buying people's hearts. This is normal, whether it is a big man or a prep big man, in fact, they like to use this method very much, except for the mouth cannon, there is no cost at all, and you can also brush a lot of loyalty.

Actually, to Bola? A magician of Carter's identity and position is not a minority in a federal society with extremely serious class solidification. Most people like them, who were born commoners but have a talent for magic, will not have the opportunity to get a full arcane education, and can only be buried. Only by swearing allegiance to the nobles of the Gate Valve as a disciple but actually a retainer can it be possible to find a benefactor to cover the high cost of learning magic, and in contrast, you must give all your loyalty to the Gate Valve. Of course, if you are lucky and appreciated, you may be able to get the marriage of the young lady of the main family. Although he was a wealthy member, he became a member of the family, and he could be regarded as entering the upper class of the Federation.

This practice has been widely exemplified in the society of the Federation and the Confederacy, where the Gatekeepers can get new blood, and the talented young magicians at the bottom who are not willing to be ordinary finally have room to rise.

It must be known that not every child of the lower class who has the gift of arcane law is like Sehirus? Miss Moore was so lucky that she was favored by the old headmaster who occasionally passed by her hometown, and gave her a letter of recommendation for the entrance exam to the Central Academy of Magic, plus a sum of money for the journey. It was impossible to be as talented and hardworking as her, and she could enter the school with the first grade, so she was favored by the federal government and became an excellent propaganda prop to promote the "Sky Dream" of equality for everyone, and finally won a full scholarship.

Exceptions don't mean anything. Magicians born in high-class families still monopolize the vast majority of resources and ascending paths, and only the truly lucky ones, or the kind of peerless geniuses who only come out once in a few decades, can break through this invisible ceiling. In the final analysis, in the realm of the caster, power and wealth will become the shackles of the closed class, but in this world where the super-powerful can break the army with one swoop, the person with the big fist has innate appeal and influence after all, and can easily be converted into political and commercial capital. A genius who has the potential to become a person of extraordinary inhuman strength, as long as he has a little luck and has the opportunity to learn, he has the possibility of soaring to the sky.

Speaking of which. The original Russell? Master Clement is also of this type. Although he was born as a commoner and did not have any background and resources, he still climbed to the point where he could barely compete with the powerful and opposition-leaning Alpha Gate Valve today...... And even more than that. At least, before leaving the Federation this time, Bora? Carter skimmed over the administration's new poll report and read it as it was. There is a good chance that Master Russell will win a landslide victory in the general election at the end of the year.

Lu Xi? Berencaster is that type of genius, right? Even if he didn't become a disciple of that master, he might be able to climb to the top with his talent and strength. Boura, who participated in the dangerous battle of the Battle of Farahals, is different from him, the young master Skaul, who has been holding an important position in the center of the country, and is actually very convinced of the young hero of the Federation who fell from the sky and saved the whole army.

Such a character, with such a teacher and background, and we have to attack him now?

Thinking of this, Bora? Carter felt that his life was indeed overflowing with unspeakable pain.

"You're thinking too pessimistic. Bora, my dear friend. Who said that we must be with Lu Xi? Belencaster fights too. All magicians should be smart people who know when to compromise and when to cooperate. The people of the Dalrest family were rude first, and in his capacity, of course, there was a position of revenge. Skoll continued: "Now that he is out of breath, he should understand what it means to take a step back and open the sky. ”

"Huron? Dalrest personally went to reconcile. But he was still severely humiliated. ”

"Huron? Dalrest is not an Arfa nobleman, but I am. Skoll said: "He won't pay attention to a merchant and the children of the **** family." But they won't turn a blind eye to the friendship of the Savi family. ”

"Yes, but it's a friendship with the Savi family, not with the Dalests. At the end of the day, we don't have an obligation to endorse them! Bora said.

"However, we will never give up our alliance with the Dalesters." Skoll took a deep look at his "best friend" and felt that it was time to make a confession to him. After all, this is an important team that he can rely on for a lifetime, so he said: "You also know that the family has not been too outstanding in the operation of the territory and domestic industry, and the reason why it has become the first-grade gate valve of the Federation in these decades is largely due to the close cooperation with the Dalester family." ”

Plainly. The capitation money earned by partnering with the Dalrest family as a human trafficker was a very important source of funds for the family to gain a foothold at the pinnacle of federal power.

"Also...... Since I have said that I am going to get married, as a noble Arcanian nobleman, I also have the obligation to bring up my fiancée's maiden family to clear up trouble. He said in a half-joking, half-serious tone: "My fiancée is also the best of the Dalrest family's generation, and if I don't prove my excellence to her, I won't be able to hold my head up in the future." ”

Birla? Carter suddenly said, "I'm going to you, you're not going to be serious, are you?" They looked at each other.

"Don't worry, although I have never been on the battlefield of the undead, I have been responsible for the work of suppressing large-scale bandits and rebellions in the country several times, and my achievements have been highly praised. If you really have a chance, you really won't necessarily lose to Lu Xi? What about Belencaster. ”

…… However, you said that those bandits and rebellions were the uprisings of slaves, landless peasants, and bankrupt citizens in the Federation who were forced to survive, and what were they compared to the army of undead orcs in Blackman City in Iron Rock Canyon?

These disciples who have never experienced a desperate situation always take it for granted that everything turns according to their own will...... Birla? Carter looked at his "best friend" and saw that it was actually the young master, although he didn't speak anymore, but naturally he couldn't calm down in his heart.

Most of the children of the Alpha Gate Valve of the Federation are actually the kind of young master of the Violet family. Compared to them, the young master of the Savi family is already a very good talent. However, compared with the top talents of the gate valve aristocratic family, such as the current one of Dandelion Dandy Lane's family, it seems a lot more mediocre. To put it bluntly, Scowl? Although Savi also has some undeniable true skills, he is also like most of the gatekeepers, with the typical characteristics of being over-eyed, arrogant and frivolous, and he has always felt that he has taken his opponent very seriously, but this is just his assumption.

In any case, the Savi family and Skoll also have great favors to themselves, and no matter what they want to do, they must follow to the end, which is the duty of human beings. Birla? Although Carter likes to complain about his "best friend" in his heart, he is actually a person who pays attention to the tradition of loyalty, or rather, a powerful eagle dog of the gatekeeper aristocracy who has been brainwashed quite successfully. He touched one thing in his arms, and then he felt that he had a little bottom, and with this thing, even if a conflict really inevitably broke out, his side was not completely without the strength to fight.

What's more, Lu Xi, who is also a member of the Arfa nobles? Berencaster will still pay attention to a little incense, and will not be too ruthless, right? Probably......

Birla? Carter was stunned by the thought until the alley across the street had appeared for the night's target. Mr. Carter, the battle mage, must not know if he has experienced the Battle of Farrahals, so he has an innate affection for this young man who has turned the tide and saved the entire battle, almost equivalent to his own life-saving benefactor, but he must admit that there are people in this world who have the kind of dreamlike beauty that can transcend gender and race, and even almost completely transcend the scope of human beings.

He was the only one who walked out of the alley, wearing a very simple and light summer dress, with a relaxed and casual step. Probably because of the summer, the neckline of the other party is very large, and the sleeves are rolled up halfway, revealing a large area of fair and delicate skin that is even slightly crystal clear...... Of course, if someone has to say that this is a "beautiful girl" with scarce elements, it will be more convincing.

He was accompanied by a large cat that was round and smooth and smooth. Well, although it is obviously an elegant and ferocious predator on the snowy mountains, it perfectly exudes a strong aura of a pet cat, and it is cute but not a little evil. In a sense, the existence of this perfect large pet cat has added a bit of perfect charm to his owner.

From the point of view of ordinary people, this is naturally a beautiful young man who walks slender and gorgeous to the extreme...... Uh, or a beautiful girl who is dressed and behaved neutrally. However, Bora who has really fought in the fiercest battlefields? Carter could feel it, with a slender figure and sharp skin. The lazy demeanor, hidden beneath it, is indeed extremely explosive and highly staying streamlined muscles.

The peerless famous sword, even if it is placed in a rusty scrap iron scabbard, it is still difficult to hide its peerless weathering.

All in all, Lu Xi? The image of Belencaster is actually very much in line with Bola? Carter's imagination, of course, as a qualified battle mage, would never admit that he had actually been a fan of that person since the Battle of Farahals. If it weren't for the different hostile positions now, he might have gone up to ask for an autograph a long time ago.

Bora who was born a commoner? Carter was still in a knot, but his young master was already smiling and strode towards the other party. Bora was well aware of his "best friend's" habits, and at this moment, his steps seemed to be easy, but one hand clutched the staff of the temporary cameo gentleman's civilization, and the other hand pressed against the belt around his waist, where there was a lock that could insert more than ten combat magic scrolls.

He was completely on the verge of battle.

"I bring with me the friendship of the Savi family, Master Belencaster Jr." He was followed by two of his own heavily armed servants, but they made a hearty and cheerful voice: "I hope you can seriously consider your actions." We're all glorious Arcane nobles, and we're supposed to be friends, aren't we? Dear Master! (To be continued.) )
