Lord of Arcane

Chapter 166 Private Mage Advisor
Does she mean that she understands, or that she agrees?
Xia Duo added, "If Mrs. Patty wants revenge, she can find someone to investigate in private, instead of publishing the task in the Mage Tower as it is now, which will easily arouse the attack of black hands."

"Well, I know." Mrs. Patty said calmly.

unusual!
If it was so easy to talk, then Niya wouldn't need Xia Duo to persuade her, and Xia Duo didn't know what happened to the people in the mage's tower.

Niya is not normal, and Mrs. Patty is not normal either.

Regarding this, Xia Duo was at a loss, but he was sure that neither of them was crazy, and any behavior would have a motive that they thought was reasonable, but Xia Duo didn't know this motive.

For a while, Xia Duo lost interest. Since he has nothing to do here, he might as well go back to study the [Steam Ray] scroll, or make some preparations for the arcane competition.

Xia Duo is very interested in the arcane competition, but he actually refuses to show off, but there is no way, Niya named Ganal and him to participate.

There are also two other newly promoted mages within the last year who will also participate.

So, Xia Duo was about to say goodbye and leave.

"Since Mrs. Patty has made all the decisions, I won't say any more."

"Wait." Mrs. Patty interrupted him suddenly, "Master Xiaduo, I want to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

"I would like to invite Master Xiaduo to be my personal mage advisor."

"This--" Xia Duo was moved, but he hesitated. Mrs. Patty had been in the Mage Tower for several days. If there was a time difference in Xia Duo before, but not this time.

He couldn't believe that Mrs. Patty hadn't inquired about his situation during this period of time. Otherwise, how would Nya know that Mrs. Patty wanted to see him?

The current Xia Duo is not the mysterious mage he pretended to be before, but a low-level mage who has been promoted for less than half a month. Even if he has a little talent, his own ability is flawed.

As if seeing Xiaduo's doubts, Mrs. Patty quickly explained: "Master Xiaduo, I have already learned about your experience in the Master's Tower, and I am very optimistic about your future development."

So, is it just an investment?Xia Duo asked again: "What do private mage consultants usually do?"

If it would take up too much time, then he would definitely refuse it. Now that he even had to deliver three meals a day, he naturally wouldn't let other trivial matters take up too much time.

Unless the price is too high for Xia Duo to resist, he is willing to give up his principles.

"My lord, the mage consultant only needs to provide some advice, and it won't take up too much of your time."

Then, Mrs. Patty explained in detail what Xia Duo usually needs to do. In short, it is to chat with her, of course, it must be when Xia Duo is free.

And with Xia Duo's full daily schedule, this actually means that you don't have to do anything, and you can get gold coins for nothing just by making a name.

It is human nature to get something for nothing, and Xia Duo is no exception. He is now very interested in this personal mage consultant!

"Then what can I get?"

"The initial investment of 500 gold coins, and the basic salary of 100 gold coins per month, as long as Lord Xiaduo passes the spellcasting level certification of the Territorial Mage Union, the salary will increase by 100 gold coins for each level up."

The words of hundreds of gold coins were casually uttered from Patiff's mouth, Xia Duo's heart was pounding, he really wanted to say, I don't want to work hard anymore!
But this salary itself is based on his continuous efforts and continuous progress. It is really a happy trouble!

"Okay! I agree!" Xia Duo agreed immediately without any hesitation. As for whether Mrs. Patty had any conspiracy, he was not worried.

People can lie, but gold coins can't lie. Anyway, he spends most of his time in the mage's tower. As long as he stays consistent with the mage's tower at all times, how many plots can an ordinary person have against him!
Just treat this as a simple transaction, but if you think too much, you will fall into an endless loop of suspicion.

And Xia Duo simply agreed, which also made Mrs. Patty very happy, but this happiness did not have a smile, it was just a little sunshine in the sadness.

"Lord Xiaduo—"

"No, Mrs. Patty, just call me Xia Duo, or Master Xia Duo." Xia Duo is quite polite to his job, not to mention that the majesty of a mage does not need to be based on words at all.

Magic is the source of the mage's status.

And not only the magical power possessed by him personally, but also the magical power mastered by the entire caster class.

A low-level mage like Xia Duo may be nothing in front of ordinary rich people, but the caster class behind him is a mountain that cannot pretend to be invisible.

The two discussed again, and finally made a formal contract. After that, Xia Duo left the No. 600 research room with the first 34 gold coin exchange voucher.

And when the door was closed, Mrs. Patty finally couldn't help crying on the back of the chair.

……

On the other side, on the top floor of the Tower of Time, Lord Epps also hastily dismissed his daughter who came to ask questions, and Eberke, who had long been hidden by the side, couldn't help laughing.

"Look, Epps, Nya is exactly the same as you were when you were young, she is so innocent and kind."

"Yeah, if possible, I also want her to grow up slowly, but unfortunately—"

Ebuke couldn't laugh anymore, and his expression gradually became serious, "Epps, are you really going to find Lord Auron?"

"If you don't go, what can you do?" Lord Epps smiled wryly, "Felbers needs to understand this matter after all, if the man behind the scenes can't be found for the time being, he can only bear the responsibility himself.

"Leaning against Her Royal Highness is actually not as serious as I imagined. Didn't you see the revelation when you advanced? I was hit by an elf spell, and my life and death are unknown, but if Her Royal Highness is behind me, maybe it won't be like this of the future."

Epps' tone was relaxed, but Eberke could hear his old friend's anger towards the unknown black hand, his unwillingness to turn to the princess, and his resistance to the known fate. Eberke didn't know how to persuade him, maybe he didn't need to persuade him at all. .

So he changed the subject, "Do you know what I found today?"

"What did you find? Tell me! I'm going to go right away!" Epps was a little impatient.

Of course, he didn't need to walk from Savile to Severton, or take a boat or a car. There is a portal directly to the Arcane Federation in the teleportation room of the Tower of Time.

But there are many restrictions on the opening of the portal. If you want to go from here to there, you must first apply here, and the other party agrees before you can arrange a specific transfer time.

If you miss it, you will have to reapply.

Lord Epps even sent his daughter away quickly, and was in a hurry to leave!
