The Lord of Ashes

Chapter 126 Welcome Dinner

The quasi-mage Domwall comes from the Fire Emblem organization, and this time he came to Grant Territory because he was originally chasing Thain.

It can't be said that Thain is unlucky.

"Master, you are very close to becoming a formal magician, are you here this time?" Earl Grant couldn't help but ask after a brief conversation with the old man in white robe.

The quasi-magician Domwall is much older than Grant, and he is about to enter the first level of life, so Count Grant's words are also very respectful.

Although Earl Grant is also a quasi-knight, his current background is still too shallow.

It is true that he has the potential to be promoted to a regular knight, but potential is sometimes not the same as strength.

Even if Earl Grant is expected to become an official knight in the future, it will take more than ten years at the earliest.

"Haha, I came to Grant Territory this time for your son, Earl."

"It's really not easy. He is only in his twenties and is already a senior magic apprentice."

"When I was promoted to senior apprentice, I was already over forty years old." The old man in white robe shook his head and said.

Then, he pointed out his purpose and said: "Our Fire Emblem organization values ​​such outstanding magic apprentices very much."

"With the potential of your child, Earl Grant, it is not too much to join the General Association."

"It just so happens that I have to report to the headquarters during this period. If Earl Grant agrees, I can take him there directly." The old man in white robe said.

The Lycian Alliance and several surrounding human countries have many magician organizations.

Not to mention those small, micro, and unpopular organizations. Among the other large organizations that are truly prestigious, the three that rank high and have a resounding name are the Ring of Thorns, the Holy Peace Society, and the Fire Emblem Chapter.

Moreover, these three magician organizations all have their own parent organizations and headquarters.

There must be formal or above-level magicians in the headquarters, and by observing how these three organizations stand out among the medium-sized organizations, the core members of their organizations must be more than just first-level magicians.

The Fire Emblem organization seems to be very sincere. The old man in white robe, a quasi-mage who is about to be promoted to the first level, personally recommended him to join the headquarters.

Thain's treatment will arouse the envy of many magic apprentices.

Quasi-magician

Is it really because Domwall values ​​Thane so much because he has the potential to become a high-level magic apprentice in his twenties?

Not entirely.

In fact, the reason why the two magician organizations, Fire Emblem Seal and Holy Peace Society, value Thain so much is because of his mastery of alchemy.

Alchemy is not something that ordinary magic apprentices can master. In addition to innate talent, persistent practice, and guidance from famous teachers, it also requires the consumption of a large amount of resources.

If Thane had not been in the laboratory of his mentor Moshe Duo, where he had direct contact with and closely observed the production process of so many special magic devices, his growth rate in this field would not have been so fast.

Faced with the outspoken wooing of the white-robed old man Domwall, Earl Grant showed a hint of emotion.

It is the norm for most noble knight families to be friends with the magician organization.

Including the reason why Thane’s mother, Kathleen, was able to get together with Earl Grant.

Apart from the fact that they were childhood sweethearts, another reason was that Mrs. Catherine's family was a magical family.

Although it is a magic family that has fallen into decline, it is said that their ancestors have produced magicians above the first level.

Moreover, there are still many magic apprentices with high levels in the family, so they can be regarded as having a place in the Lycian Alliance.

Earl Grant naturally hopes to have a closer cooperative relationship with the Fire Emblem organization, because this will not only benefit Thain, but also the Grant family.

However, as his father, Earl Grant, he could not agree to the white-robed magician Domwall at this time.

It was just that he didn't know the character of his eldest son before, but since he had a fight with his eldest son outside the Earl's castle, Earl Grant knew that this boy could never force him to do anything.

The fact that his character is indeed like his own makes Earl Grant somewhat gratified.

But if it is too similar, it will also give Earl Grant a headache.

And after fighting with Thain and knowing his many tricks and trump cards, Earl Grant also guessed that this kid was not simple.

Therefore, whether to join the Fire Emblem organization or not, Earl Grant doesn't have to say, Thain has to give his own nod.

Immediately, Earl Grant came to Thain with the white-robed magician Domwall.

It can be seen that Thane, who has lived in the Black Magic Academy for more than ten years, is not used to this kind of aristocratic society.

banquet.

Many noble men and women were drinking and chatting quietly at the banquet.

Only Thain was wearing a slightly out-of-place black robe, standing alone in the corner of the banquet, tasting a green and slightly sour kiwi fruit wine.

But since Thain was half the host of this banquet - Earl Grant's name for hosting this banquet was a welcome dinner for Thain, the eldest son of the Grant family, who had returned from studying abroad.

Therefore, the small and medium-sized nobles who were invited, as well as the young men and women from the Grant family, were quietly looking at Thane, the eldest son of the Grant family.

This situation of being in the spotlight even though he obviously didn't fit in made Thain very uncomfortable.

Except for the time when some hot and bold noble women flirted with him, which attracted Sean's attention, most of the time, Sean was just shaking his wine glass out of boredom.

After being taken back to Grant Castle, Sean didn't think about escaping here for the time being.

He was not a hypocritical person. Since he was forced to stay, he would stay and see.

As for his future plans, Sean had also made a general consideration at the banquet.

When Earl Grant brought Domwall Magician to Sean, Sean was struggling with a piece of fruit cake in front of him.

The life of the nobles was indeed extravagant and luxurious. Although Sean could cook, he was obviously not as good as the chef of the Earl's Mansion.

Delicious food and exotic fruit wine passed Sean's time at the banquet.

When Earl Grant explained his purpose to Domwall Magician, Sean first put down the cake in his hand, and then slowly wiped his mouth with a white napkin.

He even rinsed his mouth with fruit wine before speaking.

It must be said that although Sean is not very accustomed to this kind of noble dinner, he is still very good at learning.

The actions just now, whether elegant or complete, all indicate that he is a pure noble.

Of course, if it were someone else, I'm afraid no one would dare to pretend like this in front of Earl Grant and a would-be magician.

But Sean didn't care, and neither did Earl Grant and Domwall.
