Start As a Lord In a Viscount

Chapter 380 Where is Nafu City?

"Earl Henry, my name is Walker, and I am also a graduate of the Royal Capital Academy of Magic this year. I have reached the level of a senior mage. You see..."

At this moment, on the scene of the recruitment meeting of the Royal Capital Academy of Magic, a young mage in a white robe was pestering a potbellied noble to promote himself.

The nobleman rubbed his chin and replied, "As long as the graduates have reached the ranks of high-level mages, what kind of advantage do you have?"

After thinking about it, Walker continued: "I'm also good at magic inscriptions and enchanting, which are among the top in the entire grade."

"If you're good at alchemy, it's fine. Inscriptions and enchantments are useless to me, and they don't match my industry."

"How is your strength in combat? If you can, it's not impossible."

Walker was speechless for a while, "Uh... I'm a research mage, and I'm not very good at actual combat."

The potbellied aristocrat sighed after listening, "Then you should find someone else, I don't have a place for you here for the time being."

"Earl Henry, I can take a pay cut, can I take less money?" Walker lowered his request.

"Forget it, I have no need for this." The noble refused Walker's request without hesitation.

Walker, who was rejected, didn't want to force it, so he just stood there blankly and watched people walk away.

These graduates of the Royal Capital Academy of Magic, the best destination after graduation is actually to enter a certain noble family in this "school recruitment", become their retainers, and then work for them. With the help and blessing of these noble families, they can have enough funds to sprint to a higher level.

These nobles hold a lot of funds and materials, and once they are on the list, they can basically live and breathe.

Otherwise, the mages spend a lot of money in this line, and their personal income alone cannot support their own research. Some poor people can't even afford meditation, let alone promotion.

Mages who are good at fighting are better. They can go to the Adventurer's Guild to accept tasks and barely support themselves, but if a research-oriented mage like Walker can't find a financial master who can continuously support him, it will be miserable. Basically, after graduation, you will be unemployed.

Of course, it's not that the nobles can't be flattered and go out alone after graduation. But this is equivalent to you studying hard for more than ten years, after graduating from university, rejecting the recruitment of Fortune 500 companies offered to you by the school, and then going out alone to start a business.

One is minimal mode, the other is hell mode, and a smart person knows how to choose.

Even if he has some thoughts, he will work under the hands of those nobles for more than ten years, and his background will be deep and accumulated to a certain extent, and then he will consider going it alone. And now the most suitable way for these newly graduated mages is to find a thigh to hold first, which is to sell themselves.

...

"Harm!" Walker sighed deeply, holding his resume a little confused.

Shouldn't I have chosen the path of inscriptions, there is no other good way out except "entering the factory".

What Walker said by "entering the factory" means taking this as a skill to inscribe and enchant weapons and equipment. If this is the case, he can find a lot of good places, such as the Gunn family, which are weapon manufacturers. There is always a shortage of many inscriptions and enchanted mages.

But Walker wants to do research, so he doesn't want to be a "mechanic".

But these graduates are only high-level mages, and those top nobles can work in the hands of magician-level characters, and they may not be able to look at the archmages.

Just when Walker was thinking about whether to lower his requirements and ask for the next best thing to follow the local lords to leave the capital.

A nobleman who was younger than him came over, looked him up and down, then looked at the piece of paper he was holding, and asked, "Are you Walker?"

"Ah? Yes!" Walker nodded vigorously.

Don't ask why you know that he is a noble or not a mage. The dress of mage and noble is different, especially in this school recruitment, the dress of those mage is more particular.

"Then let me introduce you to..."

Walker was about to speak, but was interrupted by Claire reaching out.

"No, I've read your resume. Your conditions and talents are very suitable for my needs." Claire shook the paper in his hand and said. Just enough to pull back to fight Isaac.

Others don't need inscriptions and enchantments, but Claire knows the importance of infrastructure and manufacturing, so how could she let go of such talents.

"Come with me." Claire said without looking back.

Then Walker followed Claire up involuntarily. He didn't understand why he did it. He didn't even ask who Claire was? But there was an inexplicable convincing charm in Claire's words.

And the Earl Henry, who had just rejected Walker, suddenly began to doubt himself after seeing Claire recruiting Walker away. Is there something Walker didn't discover? Why did Claire see him! As for doubting Claire? Forget it, it's more normal to doubt yourself.

Claire slowly walked towards the selected mage with the list in hand, and Walker finally reacted at this time.

I couldn't help asking: "My lord, I want to ask, what do you do?"

Their graduates also depend on the nobles. The top nobles are better than the average nobles in the royal capital, and the average nobles in the royal capital are also more fragrant than the local lords and nobles. If you really don’t choose, he Walker is a bit small. The place can also mix well, but he is still enterprising, and does not want to make no progress in his life.

"Me?" Claire didn't stop, and kept walking towards the place where the mages gathered.

"I'm the lord of Nafu City, Claire."

"Nafu City?" Walker asked. The mages are all otaku, especially scientific research otaku like Walker. The news has been delayed for several months than the outside world, and they don't know much about the recently developed Nafu City.

In addition, he had never heard of Claire's name, and the speed of the above news spreading down was much slower than expected. Especially in terms of power replacement, the power transfer of a city's mayor is news that ordinary people have never heard of, let alone the power replacement at the top.

The names of these nobles present are still materials that Walker bought from outsiders with bad money. During the graduation season every year, such information materials are sold very hot.

Seeing that the other party was unknown, Claire continued to explain: "A city in the southernmost part of the kingdom."

Walker nodded, and then suddenly reacted, isn't this the local lord? How could I be fooled into leaving with him! And the southernmost point of the kingdom seems to be a very poor place!

Claire finally stopped now, turned around and asked, "Don't you want to be with me?"

Walker pursed his lips and pondered for a moment, and finally nodded and smiled: "No, since the adults appreciate me, then I will follow you."

Although in Walker's mind, this is not the best choice, but it is the most comfortable choice for him. There is no need to beg others in a low voice, this lord seems to value and appreciate himself.

So going somewhere may be a good choice for yourself.
