I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

It was another bright morning. After breakfast, Bennett came to Helen's room, which was Aimee's room before.

Helen had been dressed by the maid and was eating breakfast at the table.

Bennett breathed a sigh of relief. Eating normally was a good thing, but being half dead was a problem.

He pulled up a chair and sat opposite her, picking up the dragon leather book and waiting for breakfast time to end.

This wait lasted for an hour, but Bennett was not in a hurry. He thought, "Just take your time, okay? Go ahead and take the whole morning if you can."

"Give me another one."

Maureen glanced at Bennett and stood there motionless.

Helen threw the plate directly at Bennett, and Bennett was soaked by the soup.

"I'm going to go change my clothes. Maureen, clean up the house and don't let this happen again."

"Okay, Master."

Maureen glanced at Helen with a smile and called the maid outside.

When Bennett returned, there was nothing left in the house to throw away.

"Let's start now."

"I have to go to the bathroom."

Bennett looked at Helen with her nose in the air, and the corner of his eye twitched.

"Maureen, take her there for 30 minutes. Be careful that she doesn't do anything irrational again."

"Yes."

A group of maids followed Helen into the bathroom and prevented her from leaving the room. There was a commode in the bathroom.

After half an hour.

"Young Madam, calm down. Aaaaaaah!"

"Help!"

“No, ahhhh!”

……

After a while, Maureen came out covered in shit and urine.

"Master, wait a moment. The young mistress is taking a bath."

Bennett watched with a twitching eye as Maureen went out to call a new maid. Now he had a headache.

Let's just forget it, Bennett felt a little depressed, and his mind flashed back to the image of the girl climbing the wizard tower, the gray soul burning in his spiritual perception that day, the eyes shining in the sunset, and the notes drifting in the red sea.

You can have a better future, Helen, instead of dying in this gloomy manor, you have to work hard.

His eyes became firm again, and Bennett opened the dragon leather book to preview what he was going to say.

Even if you want to give up on yourself, as your teacher and your master, I have the responsibility to pull you back.

Maureen changed her clothes and came back with a pile of clothes, her hair wet.

After saying hello to Bennett, he went into the bathroom again.

Bennett sighed. The one who worked the hardest was not him, but these maids.

Helen was brought out again, tied up and placed on the chair opposite Bennett.

"Untie her. I need to go to class."

"That's right, let me go."

The maids hurriedly released Helen and observed her carefully. When they saw that she didn't do anything else, they all breathed a sigh of relief and stepped aside.

Unfortunately, the rebellious girl was not so easy to control, and when she saw that the maids were no longer surrounding her, she jumped directly onto the table and rushed to the door under Bennett's stunned gaze.

What a great Powerpuff Girl! There is another chaos.

Bennett was helpless. He could only use tough measures to deal with this situation. Appeasement was only moving himself. He said coldly:

"Secure her legs and waist to the chair."

This was the most unkind sentence Bennett had said. No matter what happened before, he had always been gentle.

The maids were stunned for a moment, then happily brought a rope, tied it around the girl's waist, and fastened her to the chair firmly. They shook the chair, and after confirming it was secure, they stepped back with a look of satisfaction on their faces.

Helen was also stunned. Ever since she became Bennett's apprentice, his tone towards her had always been bad. Even if he disliked her, he had never been so cold to her.

The person may be just mean. When he treats her well, she will ignore him, or even if he knows about it, she will feel safe and secure. But when he treats her badly, she will start to think about this and that, thinking that the person has changed his heart and that what he said before were all lies.

Only women and villains are difficult to raise. If you get close to them, they will be disrespectful; if you keep them far away, they will complain.

Looking at Bennett's serious face, Helen seemed a little at a loss. She dejectedly let the maid do what she wanted and became the abandoned little seal again.

Bennett looked at Helen tied to the chair and nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, let's start the class. But before the class starts, please do this test first so I can see how much foundation you have."

Helen looked at the paper in front of her, feeling somewhat bewildered. Not only was she confused about Bennett's attitude, but she was also bewildered by the content of the paper.

This test paper is not difficult. It contains knowledge from elementary school to high school. There are no particularly difficult questions, just basic knowledge points.

Picking up the pen, Helen began the first pop test in her life.

Unfortunately, there are more people daydreaming than writing.

Half an hour later, Bennett rubbed his aching head as he looked at the test paper on which he had hardly done any work.

"Didn't your family give you basic education?"

Helen looked at Bennett in confusion and said as a matter of course:

"Yes, but what they teach are history, poetry, and the origins of various noble families."

"Is this why you only know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide?"

"Isn't that true for everyone?"

Now Bennett was frustrated, as this was very different from the aristocratic education he and Aimee had received.

"Don't you teach mages in your territory?"

Helen finally reacted this time, and said with disdain: "What can the Truth Mage teach me? Can you teach me how to carve weapon runes for those cannon fodder knights?"

"This……"

Bennett was a little confused by the rebuttal.

"Who said that the Truth Mage can only carve weapon runes? Look at me, I'm fighting against the God-Given Knight alone."

Helen said sarcastically, "Without Mervyn, how can you cast such a powerful spell? What can you teach me?"

In fact, what Helen said was right. Ordinary truth mages can only carve weapon runes, and armed knights can only carve at best, because the runes they can see are limited and only involve material aspects. Runes such as theorems and rules can only be observed by natural disasters. Many of Bennett's spells are ideas provided by himself, and Mervin provides runes to complete them.

"My magic was not given by my teacher, I studied it myself."

"hehe."

Only then did Bennett understand why Helen was so resistant to having him as her teacher. Deep down in her heart, she didn't want to believe in Bennett's abilities.

Not knowing how to respond to her, Bennett had to skip this step.

"My teacher is the Scourge Mage. I have all the runes he knows. But what you need to learn now is not those complicated runes, but the basic knowledge of spellcasting."

Helen didn't reply, but just stared at the table to express her protest.

The biggest conflict between teachers and students is trust.

Helen doesn't trust Bennett.

Bennett also realized this and had to teach her something practical, but in order to produce results, the first step was to let her become a magical wizard, simply having the ability to cast spells. When she succeeded in casting a spell for the first time, she naturally understood the difference between Bennett and ordinary wizards.

Looking at Helen who was in a state of confusion, Bennett persuaded her, "I am your teacher, you have to trust me. I will teach you the knowledge of breakthrough first, and when you have the ability to cast spells, you will naturally understand it."

Seeing Helen still playing badly, Bennett was not discouraged:

"Okay, let's start teaching."
