Chapter 599, Royal Chief Wizard

Hearing this mature voice, Ryan froze for a moment, and he quickly stood up.

"Emilia?"

A beautiful and charming imperial female aristocrat appeared from the door of the room. She was wearing a lace hollowed-out classic princess, lined with a black crystal buckle lady's woolen trench coat, her long golden hair was tied high behind her head, and a pair of wrapped clothes were exposed under the skirt. Straight legs in black velvet stockings, and a pair of black suede high heels with stiletto bows and skull decorations staring at her jade feet.

Just below her shoulders, there is a golden lion coat of arms on a black background that symbolizes Nur. The lion holds a golden scale in its hand, representing Nur's lofty status and just laws. In addition, there is another side holding a golden scale. The white lion coat of arms of the Yanyang Banner, which symbolizes the will of the Wessenland to never surrender to foreign enemies.

Emmanuel von Lebowitz Bernardino's exquisite face appeared in front of everyone, Her Majesty the Countess of the Empire, she stared at Ryan with resentment and joy in her eyes: "My child's father, where are you?" It was very early, I thought I would have to wait for you for a while."

"Emilia!" Ryan was a little excited, and sure enough, this child was his own! He picked up the little boy who was hugging his calf and put him on the sofa chair, then turned around and opened his arms towards the woman in front of him: "Long time no see."

"Hmph! I'm Emmanuel now, I hope you can call me that in the future, Your Excellency Ryan." The countess raised her head, and she walked up to Ryan step by step: "If it wasn't for the child crying and crying Looking for Dad, I won't rush over right away."

"Okay Emilia, no problem Emilia!" Ryan had a smile on his face. He still opened his arms and stood still, waiting for his little maid.

"...You man!" The baroness gave Ryan a blank look, and finally went up to hug Ryan with some awkwardness: "Long time no see, Ryan, you should call me Emmanuel from now on."

Embracing Ryan lightly, smelling the familiar scent, the countess' face turned red instantly, she trembled a few times, quickly pushed Ryan away gently, got out, and took a few deep breaths before calming down.

After thinking about it, she and Ryan have also been separated for two years.

Emmanuel suppressed her restlessness, she pretended to cough twice, and greeted Suria first: "Sister Suria! Long time no see, congratulations!"

"Congratulations, Emmanuel." Su Liya also got up from her seat quickly. Today, the female knight is wearing a long dress with a hollowed-out carved iris pattern and a corrugated neckline, paired with a red agate ribbed unicorn velvet coat. Her long legs are wrapped in black velvet pantyhose, a pair of beautiful feet are wearing a pair of knee-high high-heeled boots, her long golden curly hair shawls fall straight down to her waist, and there is a gentle smile on her glamorous oval face. Walking in front of Emmanuel, he held her hand: "It's been a long time!"

The two mothers clasped hands, with polite smiles on their faces, but Ryan, who was watching from the sidelines, always felt that there was a smell of sparks flying in the air, and there was obviously something different in the eyes of the little maid and the female knight .

Time has passed, both of them have children, and some things have become different. When they reunited after a long absence, the female knight and the little maid seemed to have a lot of differences, and their conversation became more polite.

Lane's eyes fell on the two children at play, Devonhill, by Suria, and Frederick, by Emmanuel, who was delighted to see Lane looking at him , he pulled Ryan's sleeve: "Dad! I finally met Dad! Dad, will you play with me? You haven't played with me yet!"

"What do you want Dad to play with you?" Ryan hugged his son and said with a smile. He always felt that he owed the mother and son.

"Play with hot water!" cried little Frederick happily.

"What is hot water washing hair?" Ryan didn't understand very well.

"That's it!" The little boy stretched out his hand towards the beer on the table, and saw spiritual fire burst out of his eyes, and then the whole bottle of beer flew directly towards Ryan's face at an extremely fast speed!

"This is hot water shampoo!"

"!!!" Ryan immediately stretched out his hand into the air,

The father's eyes also burst out with psychic fire, the beer bottle was fixed in the air, and then returned to its original position.

This process is only a moment, and everyone present has not even reacted.

"Great! You really are my father!" The little boy yelled twice in surprise, he became even more excited, and stretched out his little hand to grab Ryan's face: "As expected of you, you have the same ability as me! "

"Crack!" Ryan turned blue with anger, and pinched little Frederick's face. What does it mean that Dad is like me? Only sons are like Lao Tzu, how can Lao Tzu be like sons?

"Emilia, how did you teach our children?" Ryan said dissatisfiedly to the Duchess of the Empire, "Wash your hair in hot water?"

"How do I know, your son's magic was taught by the great alchemist." Emmanuel couldn't help laughing when she saw that Ryan was upset: "If you have any questions, go to Gelt, don't ask me."

"Why did you arrange for Gelt to teach?" Ryan put down little Frederick, and the little boy carried him to play with his half-brother Devin Hill.

"Because Ms. Elspeth thinks that in terms of Frederick's talent, handing it over to Gelt is the best choice. This child has a talent for metal magic." Speaking of her son, Emilia's His face was full of pride. Although Frederick was less than three years old, his IQ was already about the same as that of a seven or eight-year-old child.

"Okay." Ryan thought about it for a while and thought it was okay. The great alchemist is a great wizard taught by the emperor himself. Both his strength and character meet the requirements. Since Emilia thinks it's okay, then let's do it.

After exchanging pleasantries, the three of them walked to the sofa chairs in the room and sat down. Olika went to stand behind Ryan, while Sylvia took the initiative to go up and play with the two boys.

"I have already made Frederick recognize Emperor Karl Franz as godfather." Emilia has been in Nur for two years, and the original greenness and innocence on her face have gradually faded away, and now she appears in Ryan The person in front of me is already a mature and beautiful lady with a touch of majesty on her face, full of wisdom and charm. If it weren't for her eyes full of emotion when she looked at Ryan, perhaps no one else would be able to compare that little maid with the current Queen of the Empire. Link: "It's a compromise, Ryan, don't blame me."

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire asked?" Ryan smiled playfully.

"I asked for it." Emilia stretched out her hand unnaturally to straighten her skirt: "This is good for Frederick's future, and it is also my compromise. You know, I don't trust the empire, nor Trust the Kaiser, I just trust the man Karl Franz, he needs me to sit in this position, so I will sit."

"So do you trust Ryan?" Suria asked, and the Duchess's sea-blue eyes fixed on her son and Emilia's son.

They are building blocks.

"I only trust Ryan Malcador." Emilia replied meaningfully: "I know what Ryan wants to do when he comes to Brunswick at this time."

"I was just invited to watch the game to see who is the next chief royal wizard." Ryan also smiled.

After a slight pause, Ryan continued: "I thought you would support Nuer's black lady."

"From my standpoint, it is true." Emilia nodded first, then shook her head: "But now I support Gelt, the great alchemist of the empire."

"Understood." Suria nodded, and the female knight hesitated for a moment before saying, "So do we."

"You can support whoever you want, Sister Suria." Emilia reached out and caressed the gold ring on her left hand, and His Excellency the Countess of the Empire smiled and said: "But I can't, if Ms. Hei wants to fight , I have to support it, but Noor compromised, so I have to compromise too."

"Gelt's little gift?" Ryan said in a muffled voice.

"A new gunpowder formula, a new miracle of engineering, and a covenant with the Amethyst Academy." Emilia sighed softly: "It's enough to make the officers and professors of the Nuer Gun Academy admire it, but also There's the Black Lady, and she's allied with Gelt."

"Hmm..." Ryan stood up, and Duke Mousillon, the most powerful man in Brittany, stood in front of the window, frowning silently.

Emilia looks similar to Lane, and all three of her titles are sealed, as are Lane's three knighthoods.

However, she is still fundamentally different from Ryan after all.

After all, Nur only needs a noble lady to maintain the existing order, and the new order in Brittania was created by Ryan, and the internal and external troubles of the entire kingdom have also been destroyed by him.

There are some things that Emilia must agree to after the Nur Iron Armored Army and Nur's Black Lady agree.

But for Ryan, this is no longer the case, he no longer has to look at anyone's face.

"Odo of the Academy of Light has the support of Vikmar, the Archbishop of the Justice Church, and also the Supreme President of the Sky Academy, the Supreme Nebula Master Skohn - the Radiant Radiant." Emilia said what she knew The intelligence passed to Ryan.

"Grand Alchemist Gelt has won the support of the Nur Iron Armored Army and the head of the Amethyst Academy, Ms. Elspeth, and at the same time, some people in the Brunswick army also support him."

"The current Supreme Dean of the Flame Academy, Senus Gehrman, has received support from a large number of lower-level troops, the Supreme Dean of the Amber Academy, Mattak, and the Green Academy. In addition, the attitude of the Shadow Academy It’s still unclear, but the shadow mage is destined not to become the chief wizard of the royal family, these people like to hang out in the market, so their opinions don’t need to be considered.”

Historically, the position of chief wizard of the royal family has generally only flowed in three colleges, Guangming College, Flame College, and Sky College. The power of the army has always been the focus of contention among the wizards of the empire.

Ryan couldn't help laughing at the thought of this, which was not the case for Brittania.

"So who does Carl belong to?" Ryan then asked.

"Not sure." Emilia shook her head: "At least until the birth of the chief wizard of the royal family, Karl Franz will never express his opinion lightly. All I know is that he respects Odo and Gehrman Respect, rely on Gelt."

"..." Ryan thought that given the current situation, it is natural that Gelt's superiority is beneficial to him, but he still doesn't know whether Gelt's strength can be crushed.

Because the election of the royal chief wizard is not simply a matter of magical ability, the Alchemy Academy can be said to be the least powerful of the eight magic academies before the rise of Gelt, and the Bright Academy has countless legacy left by Teclis. Wolan, the chief wizard of the royal family, is also a wizard of the light department handpicked by Teclis.

(By the way, Wolan was a great swordsman before he revealed himself as a wizard.)

The Flame Academy is currently the most powerful and influential academy among the eight academies, and the number of flame wizards is also the largest among the wizards of the empire, because the flame magic is simple and brutal and extremely lethal (both to the enemy and to our own people). ).

"Ryan, we should follow Emilia's suggestion and look at the situation first." Surya said calmly, "After all, we are guests, not people in the imperial court. If we participate rashly, it will easily backfire."

"Let's put this question on hold for the time being, Emilia, how have you been doing in the past two years?" Ryan thought for a while, and felt that Suria's opinion was reasonable, so he changed the subject and asked Ai How is Milia doing.

"Nur's palace is huge, but very cold." Emilia originally wanted to emphasize that she could live well without Ryan, but the little maid looked at Suria's half-smile eyes, and finally Decided to tell the truth: "There's nothing but the banquet and Frederick."

"You and Frederick will live here for a while." Ryan felt moved after hearing this, and he smiled and said, "It happens that there is nothing to do during this time, we can play around."

"Then you want a bowl of water to keep it level!" Emilia glanced at Suria, and Her Majesty the Countess of the Empire said softly, "Me too, and so does Frederick."

"Hehehe, Emilia, you always deal with the Nuer City Council like this?" Ryan laughed heartily when he heard this, and after hearing what Emilia said, he understood why his little maid could sit so high location.

"Election is nothing more than that." Emilia also laughed, and she said sarcastically: "The majority of stupid people use votes to coerce a few elites."

"But this is one of the few ways to prevent a few elites from completely monopolizing the entire court." Suria said, the female knight still had a gentle and pleasant expression on her face: "It is not always possible to listen to to all voices."

"So are we going to choose a creditor, or a co-owner?" Emilia complained.

"What we want to elect is an excellent leader, not just one leader." Suria replied.

"Ryan doesn't come often." Speaking of this, Emilia said in a slightly sour tone: "You have taken advantage of it, Sister Suria."

After this sentence was finished, all three of them laughed, and that was enough.

it is more than words.

…………I am the dividing line that speaks for itself…………

At the same time, Emperor Karl Franz was sitting behind a large desk in the imperial palace. The emperor was looking at the documents on the surface, but in fact, the emperor was talking to Archbishop Vikmar the Resolute who was sitting opposite the desk. to chat with.

"Odo proved to be a strong man capable of resisting chaos and corruption. It was he and Kant who discovered the corruption of Egrim and saved the Pyramid of Light." Archbishop Vekmar sat on the sofa opposite the desk, he emphasized Expressing his own point of view: "So I think that Odo is the best candidate for the next royal chief wizard."

"But even if the chief wizard of the royal family is appointed, the election and competition must be carried out according to the basic laws left by His Excellency Teclis..." The emperor tried to emphasize something with the archbishop: "I think the results of the competition should be respected."

"The competition only determines the strength of the contestants." Vikma disagreed with Karl Franz's thoughts: "Strength may be a good thing, or it may be a bad thing. You also mentioned the example of Egrim earlier, Karl , don't you think that Gelt's strength is growing so fast?"

"Gert had an adventure," the emperor emphasized.

"Is it an adventure? Or a sign of corruption?" Vikma is still relentless: "Many wizards have a sudden increase in power due to corruption. Obviously, Charlemagne pointed out a broad road for us, but the corruption of the old world by the evil gods will never stop. Unknowingly going on..."

"My lord! Report something!" At this moment, a Rick guard walked in from the outside. He was fully armed and walked in quickly.

"It's Rudolf? What's the matter?" Karl Franz immediately stopped talking, seeing that the topic was interrupted, Archbishop Vicmar frowned and stopped, he reached out and held his commanding authority stick.

"...It's about the match of the royal chief wizard, that...Your Excellency Senus Gehrman has arrived in Marienburg by sea boat." Rick's guards didn't expect the archbishop to be here. His voice trembled, but he quickly calmed down.

Rudolph took a deep breath, and seemingly recklessly touched the ink bottle with the quill pen on the table.

Emperor Karl noticed this detail.

"Oh? Cernus is here too?" The emperor had a hearty smile on his face. He seemed to take this matter seriously, and even leaned forward.

In this way, the ink bottle was delivered to Rick's guard, along with a piece of parchment.

"Tell me carefully, how is his exploration on Obion Island?"
