Arcane Lord

Does she mean she understands, or does she mean she agrees?

Shado added, "If Mrs. Patty wants revenge, she can find someone to investigate secretly in private, instead of announcing the task in the Mage Tower like now, which can easily provoke a strike from the black hands."

"Yeah, I know," Mrs. Patty said calmly.

unusual!

If it was so easy to talk, then Niya wouldn't need to ask Sha Duo to persuade her. Sha Duo didn't know what happened to the people in the mage tower.

Nia is not normal, and neither is Mrs. Patty.

Xia Duo was confused about this, but he was sure that neither of them was crazy. Any behavior would have a motive that they thought was reasonable, but Xia Duo didn't know this motive.

For a moment, Xia Duo was a little less interested. Since he had nothing to do here, he might as well go back to study the [Steam Ray] scroll, or make preparations for the arcane competition.

Xia Duo was very interested in the arcane competition, but actually refused to be in the limelight. But there was no way, Niya named Ganal and him to participate.

There are two other newly promoted mages within the past year who will also participate.

So Xia Duo was ready to say goodbye and leave.

"Since Mrs. Patty has made all the decisions, I won't say any more."

"Wait a minute." Mrs. Patty suddenly interrupted him, "Master Shada, I want to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

"I would like to invite Lord Shada to be my personal mage advisor."

"This -" Xia Duo was moved, but he hesitated. It had been several days since Mrs. Patty arrived at the Mage Tower. If there was a time lag in Xia Duo's previous visit, there was no time difference this time.

He didn't believe that Mrs. Patty didn't inquire about him during this period. Otherwise, how could Niya know that Mrs. Patty wanted to see him?

The current Xia Duo is not the mysterious mage he pretended to be before. He is just a low-level mage who has been promoted for less than half a month. Even if he is slightly talented, his own ability is flawed.

Seemingly sensing Sha Duo's doubts, Mrs. Patty quickly explained: "Lord Sha Duo, I have learned about your experience in the Mage Tower, and I am very optimistic about your future development."

So, is it just investment? Xia Duo asked again: "What does a private mage consultant usually do?"

If it would take up too much time, then he would definitely refuse. Now that he even has three meals a day, he naturally wouldn't let other trivial matters take up too much time.

Unless the price is too high for Xia Duo to resist, he is willing to give up his principles.

"Sir, the mage consultant only needs to provide some suggestions and will not take up too much of your time."

Then, Mrs. Patty explained in detail what Sha Duo usually needed to do. In short, it was to chat with her. Of course, that must be when Sha Duo was free.

And with Xia Duo's full daily schedule, this actually means that he doesn't have to do anything, just show his name and get gold coins in vain.

It is human nature to get something for nothing, and Xia Duo is no exception. He is now very interested in this personal mage consultant!

"So what do I get?"

"With an initial investment of 500 gold coins and a monthly basic salary of 100 gold coins, as long as Lord Xia Duo passes the spellcasting level certification of the Territory Mage Guild, his salary will increase by 100 gold coins for each level."

The words of hundreds of gold coins were spoken lightly from Mrs. Patty's mouth. Sha Duo's heart was beating fast. He wanted to say, I don't want to work hard anymore!

But this salary itself is based on his continuous efforts and progress. It is really a happy trouble!

"Okay! I agree!" Sha Duo agreed immediately without any hesitation. As for whether Mrs. Patty had any conspiracy, he was not worried.

People can lie, but gold coins cannot lie. Anyway, he spends most of his time in the Mage Tower. As long as he stays consistent with the Mage Tower at all times, how many plots can an ordinary person have against him!

Just treat this as a simple transaction. If you think too much, you will fall into an endless loop of suspicion.

Chateau agreed straightforwardly, which also made Mrs. Patty very happy, but this happiness did not have a smile, it was just a little sunshine in the sadness.

"Lord Xia Da——"

"No, Mrs. Patty, just call me Sha Duo, or Master Sha Duo." Sha Duo is quite polite about his job, not to mention that the majesty of a mage does not need to be based on words at all.

Magic is the reason why mages have such a status.

And it's not just the magical power that he personally controls, but the magical power that the entire caster class controls.

A low-level mage like Xia Duo may not be a big deal in front of ordinary wealthy people, but the caster class behind him is a mountain that cannot be pretended not to be seen.

The two discussed it again and finally settled on a formal contract. After that, Xia Duo left Research Room 34 with the first exchange voucher of 600 gold coins.

And when the door closed, Mrs. Patty finally couldn't help lying on the back of the chair and cried.

…

On the other side, at the top of the Tower of Time, Lord Epps also hastily sent away his daughter who came to ask questions. Aiboike, who had already been hiding aside, couldn't help laughing.

"Epps, look, Nia is exactly like you when you were young, so innocent and kind."

"Yes, if possible, I also want her to grow up slowly, but unfortunately -"

Eberk couldn't laugh anymore, and his expression gradually became serious, "Eps, are you really going to find Mr. Auron?"

"If you don't go, what can you do?" Lord Epps showed a wry smile, "Finally, we have to find out about Fairbus. If the mastermind behind it can't be found for the time being, we will have to bear the blame ourselves.

"Leaning to Her Royal Highness is not as serious as you think. Didn't you see the revelation when you advanced? I was hit by an elf spell, and my life and death are unknown. But if Her Royal Highness was behind me, maybe this wouldn't happen. ’s future.”

Epps' tone was relaxed, but Ai Burke could hear his old friend's anger towards the unknown black hand, his unwillingness to surrender to the princess, and his resistance to the known fate. Ai Burke didn't know how to persuade him, and perhaps he didn't need to persuade him at all. .

So he changed the subject, "Do you know what I discovered today?"

"What did you find? Tell me quickly! I'll be ready to leave soon!" Epps was a little impatient.

Of course, he does not need to walk from Savile to Severdon, or take a boat or a car. The teleportation room of the Tower of Time has a teleportation door that leads directly to the Austrian and French Federation.

However, there are many restrictions on the opening of the teleportation gate. If you want to go from here to there, you must apply first and the other side agrees before the specific transmission time can be arranged.

If you miss it, you have to apply again.

Lord Epps had quickly sent away his daughter just now and was in a hurry to leave!
