Chapter 15 The Deathly Enemy

Brando could hardly believe his ears.

"I was fired? I was fired?" Brando, who was slumped on the ground, didn't have any strength anymore. He just lay down on the floor of the hotel lobby without any aristocratic style, looking at him with unfocused pupils. The ceiling is in a daze.

After being disqualified as an apprentice by the Royal School of Magic in Stormwind City, he is still a nobleman, but he can only become a laughing stock in the noble circle.

He was not the eldest son in the family, and according to the law of succession from the Stormwind Kingdom and even the Arathor Empire, he could not inherit his father's title. Conferring titles with military exploits or climbing to high positions in other ways, these are the only two ways for nobles to climb up.

Stormwind City is located in the south of the eastern continent of Azeroth, close to the western coast, and the north is a completely undeveloped mountain. Only Elwynn Forest, which wraps Stormwind City in a half-moon shape to the south and east, is the most ideal fiefdom.

It's a pity that after thousands of years, the Elwynn Forest, which is the core area of ​​the Stormwind Kingdom, no longer has any spare land to host more nobles. To the southwest of Stormwind City is the barren Westfall, to the south is the gloomy Twilight Forest, where there is always night, and to the east is the barren Redridge Mountains.

For the aristocrats who are greedy for pleasure, no matter which direction it is, it is a ghostly place. Once the military achievements are obtained, if one wants to become a real noble with actual fiefdoms, then one must divide them into these three directions and survive in that bitter cold place.

So knighting is not a good idea.

It is not easy to climb to the top. The military is now firmly controlled by Anduin Lothar. As the last blood of Emperor Thoradin and one of King Ryan's best childhood playmates, Lothar's position in the military cannot be shaken by any nobleman.

It can be said that the military is so strict that the nobles cannot even insert a needle.

And the position in the internal affairs is completely a radish and a pit. Even if the Brando family wants to support it, it will only support his eldest brother, and it is impossible for Fam Brando to take his turn.

It is no exaggeration to say that Brando's rise in status is purely due to his mage aptitude.

Now he was sentenced to death by the old man Norton.

Do you think Brando will go crazy! ?

After a short period of enlightenment, the eyes that seemed real, full of murderous intent and endless hatred first fell on the old man Norton, and the next second, Fam Brando shyly shifted his target and landed on Duke's back.

"Hey, I feel the hostility of your old enemy, Fam Brando. Your reputation in the Brando family will always be [Death Enemy]!"

Regarding the reminder from the system elf, Duke snorted softly, and said in his heart: Don't think that the hatred that killed me once can be wiped out so easily. Just right, if you want to kill me, I will kill you too. I don't believe that I can be resurrected. I can't beat you, a little Brando family. Let's see who has the last laugh.

Thinking about it, without knowing how to supplement morals, oh, human nature, Duke would not do such a stupid thing to waste his precious morals to fight desperately with the little Brando family.

Now that he offended Fam Brando to the death, and even the hatred has solidified, then there is no need to reconcile God. Even when he walked out of the hotel, Duke held his head high.

The people around were whispering, Duke couldn't hear clearly, and he didn't care. It wasn't until he got into the carriage that Old Norton had already prepared that he realized that things had changed a lot.

He slapped Brando twice and heard no applause or cheers. As the precious son of the local lord, no one dared to applaud him openly. But when the carriage passed by, Duke was surprised to find that many people silently stepped forward, gave him a smile, and handed him various souvenirs.

A few eggs, a basket of potatoes, or a box of bacon... The villagers' thoughts were so simple and honest that Duke's throat choked unconsciously.

Since birth, lived 18 years. Didn't do anything bad, and didn't do anything good. Suddenly being worshiped as a little hero, Duke feels very delicate.

Just when Duke was about to say something, he suddenly remembered the system prompt.

"Congratulations, you have received the gratitude of the people of the North County Abbey. Your reputation in the North County Abbey is [Respect]. Due to unknown reasons, your humanity has been slightly restored, and your humanity has increased by 1%. Your current soul power is 98 , human nature is 94%."

This... this... this... Could it be that he has done a good deed and won the approval of the people so that he can restore his integrity?

For a moment, Duke was in a daze. He suddenly thought of a lot. As in games, reputation is a very important thing. Unexpectedly, after time travel, reputation is equally important.

It wasn't until he got into the carriage prepared by old man Norton a little dizzy and was jolted up and down, that Duke came back to his senses.

Hell, although horse-drawn carriages in this era are definitely a luxury for ordinary people, for Duke, a traveler who is used to flat asphalt roads and comfortable cars with springs, it is simply suffering .

Once in the car, the atmosphere changed again. The three apprentices sat obediently in a row opposite old Norton. The damn old man got a pipe out of nowhere and blew smoke rings out of the window in front of the three little guys.

"Little guys, old man, I used to be as young and vigorous as you. Although I agree with your actions from the bottom of my heart, unfortunately, I have to tell you some news. You are in big trouble."

The expressions of Daniel and Itana beside them changed suddenly. At the beginning, they stood next to Duke almost subconsciously, but when the excitement passed, fear rose from the bottom of their hearts.

They have offended the nobles. Although the status of apprentices can temporarily make them forget about it, if one day they are not promoted to official mages, one day they and their family will be at risk of being threatened by nobles.

The old man Norton continued: "Duke, the two of them are not you. In the world of mages, what we pay attention to is equivalent exchange. Our Stormwind Royal School of Magic is not Dalaran, which simply explores the truth of magic. Here, every There is a fee for each class. And every necessities for learning magic, every spell you want to learn, you have to pay for it yourself."

Speaking of this, the two of Daniel's faces were already pale.

Duke said: "May I ask, how did the apprentices of the Magic Academy deal with it?"

I was so stunned today that I forgot to bring the USB drive back to work, so I can update it when I get home.
