Chapter 897: Did I Disturb You? (Thirty-Three)

clock tower.

It is a department regarded as the headquarters of the Magic Association. It is nominally a self-defense group composed of magicians from different countries and schools. It has the function of managing and concealing mysteries, and regards the development of magic as its own mission.

Although magicians are essentially scholars who conduct intensive research in order to "reach the source", in order to protect themselves from those who threaten themselves, such as the church and other magic organizations, the Clock Tower also possesses powerful force.

For example, sealing the designated executive bureau and so on.

Moreover, although the magicians' wish is to reach the source, in the final analysis, it is limited to themselves. Therefore, the interior of the Clock Tower is still trapped in the vortex of hostility and opposition, suppression and killing, and the struggle for money and power.

Because during the Fourth Holy Grail War held in the Far East Island Country ten years ago, the El-Melloi faction unexpectedly lost its participating monarch, El-Melloi I, and the El-Melloi family, one of the twelve sects, immediately fell apart.

Not only was he robbed by outsiders, but the split family also left after the lion opened his mouth, leaving only the name of El-Melloi and a large amount of debt, and even the magic seal of the El-Melloi faction recovered from the monarch. All were destroyed to the extent that only 10% remained.

After that, due to various fateful encounters, Lenis, a girl from one of the remote branch families, Achi Zolti, inherited El-Melloi's magic seal and became the new head of the family.

However, in order to stay away from the power struggle in the Clock Tower and buy herself time to grow up, the young Lenis chose to promote Webber Velvet, one of the former monarch's students, to the position of monarch.

At this point, Weber Velvet became the famous El-Melloi II of the Clock Tower.

today.

A month has passed since Lu Xia left, and the time has come to mid-January 2004. There are only more than ten days left before the fifth Holy Grail War is about to begin.

But El-Melloi II, who had long been determined to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War, could not leave the Clock Tower as he wished until now.

The teaching building of the Modern Magic Department and the monarch's office.

"Lenise!"

El-Melloi II pretended to be calm and took out the cigar from his arms, cut off the filter with a knife, put it into his mouth tremblingly, and then drank loudly at the blond girl in front of him.

"I don't remember teaching you like this!"

The second's face was livid, and he kept yelling and cursing at the blond girl.

The reason was that his nominal sister suddenly ran into the office today and opened a barrier without saying a word, locking him in the barrier.

Then something happened that made him dumbfounded.

"Ah? My good brother, I do all this for the continuation of the family!"

Standing opposite Nisei is a blond girl about 15 years old. She has a standard Western face.

Wearing a beret on his head? Although he is still young, you can still see his gorgeous appearance.

At this moment, she had a proud expression and a devilish smile on her face, and she confidently rebutted the second son's scolding.

"Didn't you also say that a magician should always focus on maintaining the prosperity and glory of his family?"

As she said this, she took the initiative to approach the second generation, with an unusually happy look in her eyes.

"If you insist on participating in the ceremony in the Far East? I won't stop you? But you must also leave behind a child who will inherit your magic circuit. Didn't I say so?"

To some extent, magician's talent is heritable.

The more excellent the elders' magic circuits, the children born to them will generally inherit this excellence and be born with high-quality magic circuits.

Therefore, magicians pay more attention to bloodline and inheritance than anyone else. The older the bloodline, the more powerful it may be and the better the qualifications it has.

The second generation's magic circuit is undoubtedly third-rate, and his qualifications are very ordinary.

After all, the Velvet family was only the third generation to his generation. Even the first two generations were amateurs and dabblers in magic. They only officially entered the Clock Tower when he came here? It is impossible to accumulate such a long inheritance.

But because he is a celebrity in the Clock Tower and has very rare talents, he is fully qualified and necessary to collect his genetic information.

Seeing the master's expression of confusion and fear as he was about to be pushed down, the hooded girl who had been standing in the outer room could no longer remain calm.

"That...Miss Lenise...the master doesn't seem to be very willing..."

The girl wore clothes with a hood, hiding her face under the hood.

That slender body that seems to be weak and boneless, and the timid speech like a small animal, will make people involuntarily have the urge to take good care of her and prevent her from being aggrieved.

"Gray, this is not a question of whether you want to or not."

Lenis continued to approach the second son with a smile full of success in mischief, and while admiring the ugly appearance he showed like a forced little daughter-in-law, she replied in a good mood.

"Magicians are such cold-blooded freaks. Even if they don't want to, they have no right to refuse, so don't come in my way!"

Answer in a concise and concise manner.

But such an answer made Gray lose her sense of proportion. She only felt that the tongue in her mouth was very stiff, and she didn't know how to retort at all.

Her character is a bit timid, so when facing strong people, she will be at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.

"Dong dong dong!"

At this moment, a rhythmic knock on the door suddenly sounded from outside the door and reached the ears of the three people in the house.

"Guest! A guest is coming!"

El-Melloi II suddenly seemed to have found a savior, and he shouted loudly, trying to divert Lenis's attention, "It must be work! Let's talk about anything later!"

"He's probably a student, so don't worry about him!"

Lenis raised her shiny black silk legs and wanted to sit on him. The maid made of mercury behind her even turned into the shape of a rope, tying the whole person to the chair. He couldn't move.

Her emerald eyes shone with a carnivorous light, as if she planned to practice her words right here, frightening the second generation.

"Crack!"

Although Lenis said she didn't need to worry about him, Gray, who was standing at the door of the room and eager to save his teacher, quickly opened the door, letting the figure of the person outside come into view of several people in the room.

"...Am I disturbing you?"

As soon as Lucia walked into the room, she saw Nisei and Lenis standing in strange postures. After a moment of silence, she asked tentatively.

Why are you playing this trick with your sister in broad daylight? And leave such an innocent disciple Gray in the room?
