Chapter 345: The Real Thing
From Joshua's eyes, the purple-clothed man could tell that the demon was interested in illusion magic.
"This is not all magic in the fantasy system." The purple-clothed man withdrew the inscriptions around him, and looked at Qiao Xiu.
Qiao Xiu gave applause for the illusion created by the purple-clothed man just now. The things presented to Qiao Xiu by the illusion magic just now were difficult to realize even with the technology on earth, but Qiao Xiu was in this world in the middle of the magic industrial revolution. see.
Such a miracle deserves applause as a matter of course.
"And the children of the Lloydell family are very talented in this area. If she learns from me, she will have a very high attainment in this field within five years."
The man in purple had been in constant contact with Ciri's mother when she was still alive. Although Ciri had an older sister, Ciri's talent was much higher than that of her elder sister after the test of the man in purple.
It's just a pity that since her mother passed away, Ciri has almost never appeared in Norlan City.
The man in purple didn't understand why Ciri had such a close relationship with a Chaos Demon, but if Joshua disagreed, Ciri would not agree either.
"She may also be my successor."
The man in purple finally offered a condition that no Nolan resident could refuse, and that was to inherit the position of the sage.
"Can you stand on Nolan's highest point just by nodding? This is really a good deal."
Joshua stopped applauding, and put on a commercial smile again.
"Although I personally want to agree with you, this is not something I can make a decision on."
Joshua glanced at the hesitant Ciri beside him, and knew that the man in purple must regard Ciri as his subordinate, and it was Joshua's right to order her.
Although in a sense, Joshua and Xili did have this kind of relationship, but at this time the right to choose was still in Xili's hands.
But the spell caster lady obviously didn't make a decision, and when she was about to say something, Joshua interrupted Shirley.
"Give us some time to think about it, and we will give you an answer at the same time tomorrow." Qiao Xiu said.
The man in purple nodded in agreement with Joshua's proposal. Xili wanted to say something, but Joshua grabbed her hand and walked out of the art gallery.
The sage watched the backs of Ciri and Joshua leaving, and unconsciously looked at the huge painting behind him.
………………
Joshua pulled Ciri into the carriage back to the Hearthstone Tavern.
This time, Joshua left in a hurry. Ciri sat in the carriage before he could figure out the situation, and Joshua even closed the door of the carriage.
"Why don't you just agree with the purple-clothed man?"
Shirley rubbed his wrist. Joshua's strength was not too great, but what he did just now reminded Shirley of the first time he met Joshua in the Demon Realm.
This demon prince who seemed a bit nervous to Ciri would always do things that Ciri couldn't understand.
But as time went by, Ciri gradually got used to it.
"If the man in purple is looking for me, I will agree without hesitation. After all, it is possible to inherit the position of a sage in the future, but you seem to be very resistant to becoming a disciple of a sage?"
Joshua had seen what Ciri was thinking just now, or he could have seen himself back then.
According to her sister Hellan, Ciri, who has been in a "free range" state all year round, is a standard wild mage. What Ciri did the most in the Spellcaster Academy back then was to put those senior guys Get beaten down, as well as absenteeism and truancy.
Joshua didn't think that this kind of 'good girl' would receive an academic education.
"Your sister once told me that except for the magic course and practical course of the order system, you got full marks, but all other courses were absent."
After thinking about it for a moment, Joshua revealed Shirley's learning status when he was a child.
"I just don't want to learn things that I don't like." Ciri was not ashamed of her behavior of cutting classes back then, and it seems that she still has a clear conscience about it "and those spellcasters who hold books all day can't play at all." beat me..."
"So I should be able to understand that becoming an apprentice of the purple-clothed man is a kind of torture for you, not something to be thankful for?"
Joshua knew that Ciri was notoriously a problem child in the Magic Academy.
"Although the sage's apprentice is a very glamorous identity, the purple-clothed one must be a strict mentor. She will give you all her knowledge within a year, and if you still need to master it, what you want to learn It should be hundreds of times more than before."
Joshua opened the window of the carriage and looked at the Sage's Tower in the distance. This is Nolan's most splendid building, but not everyone has the opportunity to enter the Sage's Tower.
Some spellcasters may not be qualified to enter the tower of the sages even if they spend their whole lives, and no matter how talented Shirley is, if he wants to inherit the position of the purple-clothed man in a short time, the effort he wants to put in cannot be paid for by "hard work". describe.
"I don't want to hold a book heavier than mine from morning to night every day, and I don't have time to rest."
Ciri could also imagine that if she became an apprentice of the purple-clothed man, it would be more restricted in life freedom than the glamorous status. The worst thing was that she might not be able to leave the purple-clothed man's mage tower.
"But, I've made up my mind." Ciri lowered her head and her voice was so low that it was inaudible, "I still want to be the apprentice of the purple-clothed man."
"Really? I want to know why."
Joshua was very calm about the choice Ciri made.
The only reason Joshua could think of at the moment was that Ciri was afraid of the man in purple, and it would not be a wise choice to refuse an invitation from a sage.
"The reason is actually very simple."
Ciri touched the pendant on her neck with her hand, and remembered Joshua's excited expression when he watched the illusion created by the man in purple.
Having been by Joshua's side for such a long time and witnessing the birth of three films in a row, Shirley certainly knew what phantom magic meant to the filming of 'movies'.
Similarly, Ciri has been watching this demon since he came to Nolan. From being unknown to now, almost all the people in Nolan have heard of the names of 'Belle' or 'Leon'.
Behind these well-known movies and movie characters, all of Joshua's sacrifices, Xili also saw them all.
Shirley has been watching Joshua silently as a movie fan, and she also knows that Joshua will not be satisfied with just shooting three movies. This Chaos Demon has even greater ambitions, so...
She lightly grasped the edge of the skirt, as if to cheer herself up.
In the end, Shirley suddenly raised his head, his silver-gray pupils stared at Joshua closely, and his lips moved, pouring out the words that had been buried in his heart.
"I just... want to realize your ideal."
