Greetings, Mister Principal: True body

Claire was still eating a lot of food, completely ignoring the surprised looks of the people around him. On the table, there were mountains of genuine food. Although the variety was not as complete as Claire said before, basically, Reiner ordered all the food on the menu. One serving even alerted the restaurant’s lobby manager to come and check on the situation.

At first, the lobby manager thought he was the kind of guy who specializes in eating Overlord meals, but Reiner took out a gold coin, which quickly changed the lobby manager's confusion into a flattering smile, and he happily asked the waiter to serve the food.

Reiner watched Claire devouring the food while he ate something casually. He did not dare to tell Claire that he had eaten plain chicken, otherwise he might be torn apart by the big eater.

Just when Claire finished eating a whole roast chicken and was about to take action on the steak on the table, a man came to their table.

"Reiner Ingle, it looks like you're okay."

Reiner turned around and realized that it was none other than the high-level mage of Mercury Scale, Eaglesfield.

Your Excellency Field has dealt with Reiner several times and has high expectations for this newcomer. This time he happened to be doing business near Olmsted. He sensed the news about the Hohenheim Gold Cup and flew here directly. .

"Your Excellency Field."

Reiner hurriedly stood up and saluted, but was quickly stopped by Mr. Field.

"Be low-key."

Mr. Field pointed at himself. He was not wearing a mage robe with a rank mark, but was dressed in ordinary clothes. It seemed that he did not come here as a high-level mage.

"Okay, okay."

Reiner nodded, and then asked the waiter to bring another chair.

"Your little lover enjoyed the meal very much."

Mr. Field sat down, looked at Claire who was enjoying her meal and even ignored her, and smiled.

"Well, woo woo woo woo."

Claire still had torn beef in her mouth. After hearing Mr. Field's words, she was a little anxious to explain something, but she couldn't say a complete sentence.

"Swallow it before you speak."

Reiner said helplessly, while picking up the napkin on the table and wiping the corners of Claire's mouth with sauce still on it.

"Not a lover!"

Claire hurriedly chewed faster, swallowed, and repeated it again.

It was only then that she noticed that there was an extra person, and then she whispered to Reiner.

"Who is this?"

"Eaglesfield, Your Excellency the High Mage."

Reiner replied in a low voice, which made Claire almost choke. She drank a lot of juice before she recovered.

"Did you encounter something just now?"

Mr. Field looked at Reiner up and down. He was not injured, and he was enjoying dinner with Claire. If he hadn't sensed the abnormal movement and knew Reiner as a person, Field would have doubted Reiner. Was Na playing a trick on him?

"Yes, Your Excellency, I met a member of the Serpent of Chaos. He called himself Sloth and his name was Ambekos. He wanted to avenge his companions and attacked me."

Reiner said briefly that they didn't need to worry about people around them eavesdropping, because the moment Mr. Field sat down, he had already cast a suggestion spell to make others ignore their table.

"I immediately used the Hohenheim Gold Cup to send a message and used magic to deal with it."

He had no intention of hiding anything and told Mr. Field exactly what happened at that time.

"At this time, a high-level mage suddenly appeared. He repelled Ambekos, and then took me to a place where I didn't know the location. The gentleman exchanged with me the theory of magic. Then I was sent back to Olmsted."

Hearing Reiner's words, Mr. Field nodded slightly.

"What does that gentleman look like?"

he asked.

"Very old, with white hair, beard, many wrinkles on his face, and wearing a tattered robe. By the way, I have seen him once before at the annual meeting of the Mercury Scale, on the shores of Lake Wagner. , he was dressed like a tramp and was kicked out of the pub."

Reiner said while recalling, and felt a little strange in his heart. It seems that the high-level mage just did not come here after receiving the information about the Hohenheim Gold Cup. Is he really just passing by?

"What theory of magic did he discuss with you?"

After hearing Reiner's description, Mr. Field nodded slightly and continued to ask.

"Well, regarding the utilization rate of magic for magic power, and why magic power is spontaneously attracted and used by high-level magic, your Excellency was just vague and didn't say anything valuable."

Reiner was even more confused. Judging from Mr. Field's attitude, the high-level mage seemed to be really outside the Mercury Scale, or even outside the Magic Association.

After thinking about it carefully, Reiner also discovered that many of the questions asked by the old man showed that he had not been exposed to the most cutting-edge magic theory for a long time, which was abnormal for a high-level mage. . ~IndoMTL.com~ It was as if he had been sleeping for many years and had only recently awakened.

"By the way, he also mentioned that he has a daughter, but he didn't go into details."

Reiner didn't dare to mention the marriage joke in front of Claire. He was worried that Claire would bite his head off.

"Sir Field, do you know this gentleman?"

Reiner asked. Unexpectedly, this question made Mr. Field a little embarrassed. He thought for a long time before speaking.

"You can say you know it, or you can say you don't know it."

Mr. Field sighed and continued.

"Speaking of which, this is also a mercury scale, no, it is the wound that the entire High Council least wants to mention."

"What do you mean?"

Reiner had a vague premonition, but still waited for Mr. Field's answer.

"Once upon a time, there was an Excellency who loved and understood magic more than anyone else. Together with Braggs, he became the cornerstone of modern magic."

Mr. Field said, his tone was long, as if he came from the past.

"That Your Excellency was obsessed with exploring the nature of magic. He explored many ancient ruins and traveled hundreds and a half planes. But in the end, that Excellency did not realize the truth he was pursuing, or maybe someone This special existence affected him, maybe because of the early death of his beloved daughter. In short, he fell into madness, his magical power was greatly reduced, and he left the High Council. Since then, we have never seen him again. ."

"Who is this?"

Reiner asked curiously. He was completely unaware of such an existence. This was so unreasonable.

"You must have heard his name."

Mr. Field sighed softly and continued.

"Aurioles von Hohenheim, the founder of the alchemy department and one of the legendary mages."
