Demon Lord

Chapter 728 Leaving (2 in 1)

Leaving Ankers with a look of bewilderment, Houdini picked up the newspaper and left without haste. He naturally understood why the other party appeared at this time. After the disaster was over, most mages devoted themselves to the research of marine mutant creatures, and as long as the subject of "mutant creatures" was selected, there was no way to bypass him and Rody's previous research. Wrote two papers.

So with paper after paper, the names Houdini and Roddy became known. At this time, everyone understood why the "ancient sea monster" could be solved by Rody. After taking a look at the detailed research, everyone knew that Rahiman had been left behind by the Karen Kingdom for a long time on the subject of "demonized creatures". distance. Therefore, in recent times, almost all academic journals, periodicals and newspapers have been frantically discussing this topic, obviously putting on a posture of desperately catching up.

Houdini had little interest in this, because Rody had already confirmed the return flight time, and he went out today mainly to finish the things he had done in Laciman.

Walking to the "Collen Mill" magic tower, the building known as the "Eye of Truth" still has several holes that have been smashed and have not been repaired completely, but the various offices in the tower have resumed normal operation. When the apprentice at the door saw him, he saluted respectfully and said loudly, "Thank you for everything you have done for Laximan!"

It is known that Houdini used his magic power to draw writing on the top of the magic tower, and this scene was quickly regarded as a turning point in the entire war. His name and the thesis also became the reason for "rehabilitation". Now the situation of "everyone shouting and beating" no longer exists, but Houdini did not have much emotional fluctuation.

After all, not all rifts can be healed perfectly.

"Master Houdini! The meeting is about to begin, and you can go directly through this passage."

The inner administrative staff came over to greet Houdini and guided him to the "conference hall" where he had only sat on the bench for two weeks. The mage next to him was obviously excited to see Houdini, and couldn't help saying: "You and Lord Roddy are so brave, it's no wonder that the council specifically proposed to let you become the core of Brenka Academy this time." The previous performance of Senator Corey is really disappointing, I hope you can lead Brenka College out of the shadows!"

"hope so."

Houdini calmly stepped into the familiar corridor, and pushed the door at the end to enter.

Under the soft light of the lighting circle, the attendance rate of the seats in the parliament is not high. When Houdini walked in, most of the mages present cast their gazes over, but Houdini didn't realize it, and walked to the front row seats belonging to the "non-senators" and sat in this seat, which actually meant With the identity of "probationary member".

Two minutes later, Speaker Jeremy walked to the center of the venue and announced the start of the meeting. And the first resolution,

It is to announce the adjustment of the position of the member of the Brenka Academy:

"In view of the long-term negative performance of the Corey member during his term of office, lack of ability to lead the academy, and the excessive number of abstentions in various resolutions of the parliament, this motion proposes to resign from the core member seat of Master Corey..."

The vote passed quickly, and the pale Congressman Corey got up on the spot to sign behind the bill, and then staggered away from the venue. Before leaving, he glanced at Houdini with some resentment, but found that the magister was always looking ahead calmly, ignoring his intentions at all.

Then Speaker Jeremy announced that Houdini was recommended as a core member of the Brenka Academy. Such a decision was completely expected. Almost everyone in the venue understood that this was the parliament's "compensation" to Houdini.

Houdini was wronged by the Parliament and the Brenka Academy back then, and they were extremely suspicious from the time the fleet returned. Although the Rotika and Barrenna Academy were the main reasons for this, the "ignorance" of the majority itself was tantamount to A kind of queuing. For Houdini, it was an indescribable humiliation and injury.

Now they took out the report that Houdini sent the first time, and found that the magister was not telling a half-truth. But the distrust of Houdini at that time led to the current result, who can be blamed?

"Master Houdini, as long as you sign, the appointment will take effect. I only represent all members of the council, welcome"

"I have something to say, Mr. Speaker."

Jeremy's words were abruptly interrupted by Houdini. There was an uproar in the venue... After all, Houdini's behavior was not polite. It is enough to bow your head and sign at such a critical moment. Where is there any nonsense?

But they obviously didn't expect Houdini's final choice. The magister reached out and took out a scroll from his pocket, raised his hand and handed it to the magic apprentice next to him, raised his head and said: "Since Brenka Academy rejected me If I have to apply for resignation, then I can only submit another application while all MPs are present."

Jeremy frowned. In fact, when he first saw Houdini's closed courtyard, he had a premonition. Now that the magister in front of him did not change his expression in front of him as a "core councilor", he felt a little bit in his heart. No bottom. Asking the apprentice to take a look at the paper Houdini handed over, he finally understood... Even if the position of "Speaker" is given up, it may not be able to stop the mage from leaving.

On the paper is Houdini's declaration of voluntary withdrawal from Rahiman's magic circle. Declaring that he "withdraws from the Rahiman's magical world" is basically equivalent to "withdrawing from Rahiman's nationality".

However, this kind of statement does not come into effect just by saying a word. As a magister cultivated by the kingdom, Houdini needs to compensate a certain amount of resources, or use a certain amount of arcane energy points for exemption. On this statement, Houdini He voluntarily gave up tens of thousands of Ao Neng points, as well as most of the property he had accumulated over the years.

The parliamentary vote cannot veto the statement itself, only the amount of "compensation" can be discussed, and Houdini's compensation has obviously exceeded the "standard line" by several times, and his heart is beyond doubt.

Speaker Jeremy made a decision for half a minute, then sighed, put aside the original "Appointment Letter of Core Members", picked up Houdini's "Statement" and read it out, followed by a show of hands to vote.

Such a turnaround caught the lawmakers by surprise, but no one who can sit here is a fool. After seeing the speaker's expression, they could not do anything, so they finally confirmed the validity of the statement with more than half of the votes.

"Thank you everyone."

Houdini bowed, turned and left the hall.

The silent venue looked at the back of his departure. Some felt sorry, some were ashamed, but most of them looked indifferent. After all, when the disaster has not befallen them, "empathy" is always just a false proposition.

They think that Rahiman does not lack a mediocre "prophecy" magister, but the future... is often unexpected.

*****

the next day.

The materials transported from Rahiman to Karen Kingdom have already started to be loaded and pulled away towards the military port. The "Boratini" is still the flagship of this voyage, but the fleet of returning ships is very large. There are a total of 30 transport ships alone, and some of them were directly delivered to Roddy. Hundreds of crew members are busy at the pier, excited about the upcoming voyage. After all, the name of the "Kingdom of Karen" has spread throughout Rahiman at this time, and countless people are wondering what kind of rich country this is.

Rody has no time to go to the port to watch, because he has been working hard to complete the "investigation report" promised to Alva in the past two days. It was only when he stayed up all night to finish writing these things that he learned that Naifei wanted to "study abroad" in Rahiman.

"...can you?"

When Naifei asked this question, Luo Di wanted to give a negative answer when he opened his mouth, leaving such a little girl in a foreign country, how could he rest assured?

But when it came to his mouth, he couldn't say it at all. Because he realized that this concept of "for your own good" was exactly what he hated at the beginning. Naifei's position in Luo Di's heart is very vague, and she said "see it as a daughter" entirely because of her current age. But in the final analysis, she is still the woman who left the deepest imprint on Luo Di's heart, even if he is now in another time and space.

Loving someone cannot be reflected in the unlimited desire for control. Roddy understands these principles, but he obviously can't feel relieved when it's his turn. He put away a stack of papers, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Well, I support you if you want to study. Just...how long will you stay?"

"Do you really agree?"

In fact, Naifei was also very reluctant, but she knew that she could not stand under the protection of others for the rest of her life, so she mustered up the courage to continue: "I want to go to Mofengt College to learn the manufacturing and manipulation techniques of constructing puppets. They said they would enroll me for free and study for three years."

In order to reassure Roddy, Naifei added: "Sister Melinsera will also stay here and say she can take care of me."

"She wants to stay here too..."

Hearing this, Rody felt relieved. With Merlinsera around, he obviously doesn't have to worry about anything. However, he still had to take a closer look at this Mofengte Academy. Luo Di didn't even realize that he was just a rigid and cautious parent now, for fear that his child would be wronged at school.

But before Rody could lead Nafie out, Alva, the Frost Dragon, came to Rody's manor as promised. After transforming from a giant dragon into a human form, he saw the two of them at a glance, and asked curiously, "What? Is this going to go out? This is... eh?"

Alva's eyes lingered on Nai Fei for a moment, and his eyes suddenly became very strange: "Your daughter? Oh no...sister?"

The dragon family is not very sensitive to age. After he finished speaking, he realized that Luo Di was only in his twenties, and he didn't look like he had a daughter.

"The most important sister," Rody smiled, and said truthfully: "She is going to stay in Laximan to study magic. Come, let me introduce Nefer Camilla, this is His Excellency Alva of the Frost Dragon Clan."

Naifei looked at Alva curiously, and stepped forward to say hello obediently. But the latter obviously had something to say. He reached out his hand to signal Roddy to the other side, and said in a low voice, "This little girl is a genius, do you know that?"

"Um, she's pretty amazing..."

Roddy was very surprised that Alva would give such a high evaluation. Looking back carefully, Melinsera seemed to have said similar words. Could it be that the Dragon Clan could see something different?

"Very powerful? Don't believe me when I say it. I'm afraid the nest of incompetent guys in the Frost Dragon Clan can't compare to her. It's rare for humans to have such a physique. Is she really a human?"

"Of course it is."

"you sure?"

"Uh..." Rody hesitated suddenly, and he suddenly realized that he had never asked who Nefei's father was, and Camilla obviously kept this question secret and never talked about it, which made him unable to give Having given an affirmative answer, I had to shake my head: "I'm really not sure."

Alva is very satisfied with this answer: "She wants to study here? But I suggest that she change places after she has finished her studies. I am afraid that a college like Laximan will not be able to satisfy her soon."

After he finished speaking, he patted his chest: "But as long as you are in this land, if you have any questions, just come to me."

Rody was very surprised at his attitude of taking the initiative to give favors, but Alva's next sentence dispelled his doubts: "After the 'Devil's Gate' was opened, my father and the others held a meeting to adjust a lot of strategies. The cooperation in the human magic world will be gradually opened up. After all, some things are really difficult to rely on the dragon clan alone. We are not large in number and cannot take care of all the lands. And the cooperative operation between you and my sister is obviously a successful example. Discussions over and over again..."

Hearing these words made Rody feel a little ashamed, because the content seemed to involve the secrets inside the Dragon Clan. Although he wanted to listen more, he was also afraid that this was a temptation from the other party, so he hurriedly interrupted Alva's endless chatter with the excuse of "going to get the investigation report".

In a few minutes, Rody handed over a stack of reports and the thesis he had written to Alva. The latter briefly looked through it and said in surprise, "Hey! Father must be satisfied now, and I will give it to Alva. You handed in this paper together. If there is any notice at that time, I will come to you again."

"It will probably be next year. I'm going to leave the day after tomorrow and go back to Karen Kingdom."

"That's okay." Alva winked at him strangely, and said in a low voice: "Dragon people are not allowed to wander around in the human world when they have no mission. If you go back to Efta, then my sister just has a reason to go." Take a walk around."

When Luo Di heard it, he immediately smiled and said, "Leave it on me, and let her eat, drink, and have fun."

"terrific!"

Alva stopped talking nonsense, waved hands with Rodney Nefert, turned around with the report and turned into a dragon and flew away.

This conversation gave Rody a lot of information, but the most important thing is that Naifei should not have to worry about Laximan in the future. To put it bluntly, with the support of two dragons behind her, who would dare to find her unhappy?

"Come on, let's go to Morphant College." Rody took Naifei's hand, and the two walked out of the manor. After getting into the carriage, he suddenly asked, "Don't you have any impression of your father?"

"No, I don't remember at all."

Naifei hadn't heard Alva's words before, and didn't realize the meaning behind it at this time: "I asked my mother when I was a child, and she said that I am different from others, and I don't have a father at all..."

"No father?"

Roddy frowned, lost in thought.
