Greetings, Mister Principal: Mockery
Reiner hurriedly opened the envelope, and it was indeed Claire's handwriting. ◢Щщш.sUimEnG.lā
The content is very simple. The student president of Crescent College, Alymia von Albiore, who was originally scheduled to take the magic test, did not appear in the magic test room. After Claire settled the other candidates, she contacted He asked the other party's family, but the reply he got was that Emiya gave up participating in the magic test.
In desperation, Claire could only write to Reiner for help.
"That girl..."
Reiner read the contents of the letter again before putting it away.
Student Council President Alymiya had always criticized Reiner before, and even did not take part in the mock exam. Reiner always thought that this was just a simple personality incompatibility, but now it seems that the problem seems to be serious.
If Alymiya's family is a noble or wealthy businessman, and they only want their children to receive magic-related education without intending for them to become mages, then it would be understandable not to take the magic test.
Lovely Lymiya's family, the Albiore family is not a merchant's family. Not only that, her family is a pure-blood family with a long history of more than 800 years. I am proud of my identity, why is this so?
This Ernest meeting is coming to an end. Reiner weighed it up and decided to leave immediately for Berger City, Ammonai Province, where Elbiore's family is located.
In any case, he is also the principal of Crescent College and cannot abandon his students.
Before setting off, Reiner first wrote a letter to Lord Dmitry, explaining to him the reason for his early departure and hoping to gain understanding. Then he picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Claire asking him to After supervising the magic test, she also went to Berger City to meet up.
Early the next morning, Reiner took a regular ship from the airport to Toronto, the capital of Ammonai Province, and then took a steam train to the city of Berger, located in the eastern part of the province.
This city is smaller than Prest. Reiner carefully read the contents of the tourist brochure on the train and learned that Berger City is mainly based on agriculture and its economy is not that important. developed.
The reason why the city was built here was because of the relationship of the Albiore family. This family with a long history was regarded as the overlord of the ancient Magic Empire. At that time, the entire family's ruling area occupied almost half of the province of Ammonai. It extended to a small piece of territory in neighboring Bunajien, and Berger City was the central city of that era.
Until now, most of the indigenous people in Berger City are descendants of the servants of the Albiore family. Most of them are proud to be the servants of the Albiore family. Although in the ancient magic empire After the destruction, the Albiore family surrendered to the Magic Association and handed over most of their territory, but their influence in this area is still far-reaching.
As he walked out of the station, Reiner saw a large castle built on the mountainside on the outskirts of the city. It cast a huge shadow in the afternoon sun, as if it was about to cover the town. It was clearly midsummer daytime, but The castle looked extremely gloomy, with an indescribable chill.
"It really looks like a castle where a vampire lives."
Liner said to himself, the improved robes he wore attracted the attention of passers-by. They all saluted to Reiner, but there was a bit of awe in their eyes, which made Reiner feel a little uneasy.
He checked the time and then came to the hotel where Claire, who had arrived first, lived.
"What, she went out?"
However, when arriving at the hotel, Reiner learned from the hotel owner that Claire, who checked in last night, left early this morning and never came back.
"Where will she go at this time?"
Reiner pondered and turned his gaze to the old castle outside the window.
......
"I have been waiting here for half an hour. If Mr. Albiore is not here, please tell me directly."
In front of the iron door with a thick metallic texture, a woman wearing a mage's robe suppressed her dissatisfaction and said.
"Sorry, my husband is really busy, but he will definitely make time to see you, Miss Sullivan."
A middle-aged man dressed as a butler said, although it was an apology, there was no trace of apology on his face, and his tone was cold and perfunctory.
"Why do I feel like you are playing tricks on me..."
On the other side of the iron gate, Claire curled her lips and whispered.
In order to meet this traditional pure-blood mage, Claire specially put on a traditional mage robe. However, the weather was hot and the long wait made her robe soaked with sweat, which made the teacher even more irritated.
She held her hands in front of her chest and kept tapping her elbows with her fingertips. Suddenly, Claire looked over the butler's shoulder and saw a middle-aged man walking in the garden with several maids. There was also a man beside him. A young man was talking about something.
"Hey, isn't that Mr. Albiore?"
The housekeeper turned his head following Claire's words, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then replied.
"No, that's not the master, just an ordinary guest."
"..."
This was obviously lying with open eyes. Claire knew that she had been deceived, and she immediately shouted loudly.
"Mr. Albiore, I am Claire Sullivan, the dean of education at Crescent College. Regarding your daughter Alymiya..."
Her shout attracted the attention of the man who was walking around with the maid. The man looked here, frowned, said a few words to the young man next to him, then turned around without looking back. walked away.
"..."
Claire was about to explode when she heard a frivolous voice coming from behind the housekeeper.
This is the young man who was talking to Mr. Albiore just now. He is wearing a classic mage robe. He looks like a second-level mage. The man has light golden curly hair and a decent appearance, but his eyes , full of contempt.
"Haha, you're just a **** mage, and you actually want to meet my father. Who gave you the courage? Hagrid, why can't you handle these things well, and why do you bother me to come here in person?"
He asked accusingly. The family crest on the robe showed that this man should be from the Albiore family. Judging from the meaning of the words, he should be the son of the Albiore family. Love Lymiya's brother.
"Bastard? What do you mean!!?"
Obviously insulted, Claire stamped her feet angrily. She tried to take a step forward, but soon, a magic barrier appeared on the iron door, blocking her steps.
The defense above is at least a fourth-level level. Claire, a first-level mage, has no way of breaking through.
"I said you are a bastard, don't you understand?"
He said, looking at Claire like he was looking at an animal.
"I have heard that you are just an orphan. Only with good luck can you pass the examination and become a mage. In our eyes, this kind of existence is a **** among mages and is not worthy of being called a mage at all! To be honest, although that guy is also It's not that clean, but now it seems that sending her to that **** Crescent Academy was really a mistake."
In the eyes of the pure-blood faction~IndoMTL.com~Only the mages who have descended from the ancient magic empire are authentic mages, and those mages who are promoted through the magic academy and are born from ordinary people are bastards, but this word It is extremely insulting. Pure-bloods will not say such words casually in formal occasions, otherwise it will be easy for the insulted person to appeal to the Magic Association.
"You!"
Claire was extremely angry, but the other party was standing behind a safe magic barrier, and she couldn't do anything at all, which made her jump anxiously.
"Hongrel?"
It seemed that a familiar voice came from behind Claire.
Claire turned around and saw Reiner walking towards here. She felt finally relieved and hurriedly explained to Reiner what had happened.
"Before you insult others casually, it is better to think carefully about yourself first."
After listening to Claire's explanation, Reiner said to the man with an expressionless face and a cold tone.
"Are you worthy?"
