Lucifer [Rebirth]

Chapter 17 The Grand Ceremony

Lu Xuan came back from the street exhausted physically and mentally. The simple Chanel didn't know that the ring he wore around his neck and hung on a thin chain was worth thousands of gold, but because the ring started to take effect, Chanel went into the candy store again At that time, he was not driven away by the howling of the pet bird, and he happily bought a lot of candies and handed them to Lu Xuan for him to keep.

Without going back to the room to rest, Lu Xuan saw three children who were about to take the test in the dining room. Everyone changed into neat clothes. It turned out that the owner of the hotel heard that they were about to take the magic test, so he couldn't put his children into it. They took out their old clothes, even if they were old clothes, they were much more decent than what they had worn before.

Now the three of them were sitting at the dining table, holding the milk glass awkwardly, and reluctantly sipping.

Lisa is the oldest of the three, 15 years old, and the other two teenagers are only 13 years old.

Lu Xuan borrowed a hollow earthen jar from the kitchen, and he asked Lisa, "Do you still remember the game I couldn't finish for you?"

Lisa nodded brightly.

Lu Xuan smiled and said, "What do you see me doing?"

There was no sunlight in the empty earthen jar, but when he put his finger in, after a while, tiny halos of light danced along his fingertips.

One of the teenagers leaned over the edge of the crock and yelled, trying to salvage the jumping galaxy, "It's light magic!"

Lu Xuan smiled and said: "You are still young and have never learned magic. In fact, it is difficult to resonate with the corresponding utensils, but it doesn't matter. The method of meditation and breathing is the same. Tomorrow you will accept the orthodox magic test. You only need one With a little bit of talent, the magic circle will respond, so be sure to practice meditation a lot today."

A teenager asked, "What if there is no response?"

Lu Xuan remembered his face, "Is your name Simon?"

The boy hummed and blinked his big eyes. Although his face was always dirty, when he looked carefully, he seemed to be more delicate than Lisa.

Lu Xuan smiled and said, "You asked a good question."

"Does that mean we can go home?" Another teenager asked.

Lu Xuan was puzzled, "Carter, don't you want to stay?"

Carter said cautiously: "My mother is sick, and my father's legs and feet are not good. I think I can take care of them in the future."

Lu Xuan touched his hair, "If you can stay, maybe you can bring a good life to the family in the future."

Carter laughed naively, "Sister Lisa said the same."

"I'm going to try it." Simon's eyes lit up.

Lu Xuan guided him to touch water cups, candles, and earthen pots one by one. This was originally just a game for practicing meditation. In addition to the talent of the experimenter, he paid more attention to the induction of elements. However, what he did not expect was that when Simon When he put the candle holder on his little hand, he clearly felt that there was an imperceptible element of fire jumping in an instant.

Simon couldn't perceive the fire element, he put down the candlestick regrettably, but Lu Xuan said: "Wait!"

At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the restaurant. Lu Xuan saw that it was Earl Will. He walked over with a dinner in his hand, "Hey, everyone, is the pre-dinner meeting over?"

Lu Xuan guessed that Earl Will might have something to ask him, so he said to the children in relief, "Go and play."

The three children had to gulp down the milk and ran away like the wind.

The two of them were left at the dining table, and Chanel squatted by the corridor not far away, watching the fish raised by the owner of the hotel, and would not run around.

Lu Xuan withdrew her gaze, and her eyes fell on a steaming cup of milky white soup in front of her.

"This is?"

"Lord Lucy, do you mind if I call you by your name? You seem to have a bad appetite today. This is sour mushroom soup. I just ordered the kitchen to make it." The young man was tall and tall, with a straight back like a javelin. The shoulders and back muscles wrapped in armor are strong but not strong, the short pale blond hair complements his appearance, and the smile is innocent and pure.

"Okay..." Lu Xuan responded, but didn't pick up the spoon. He was wondering what the man in front of him meant, and it seemed too intimate just to order a soup.

"I've already had someone make your identity document, and I'll send it over right away." Will said.

When filling out the paperwork, it is natural for the mage to provide relevant identity information. Lu Xuan had already handed the paper information to Will, the key word—"Lu Xi, male, 25 years old, unmarried."

Will said: "Master Lucy, you are younger and more handsome than I imagined. You must know that most of the seventh-level magicians in the academy are already bad old men."

"Excuse me, Sir... what's the matter?" Lu Xuan cut straight to the point.

Will's cheeks were a little red, "Master Lucy...it's like this. Although it's very difficult to say, I still have the cheek to invite you to the dance."

"Prom?" Lu Xuan was stunned, and immediately refused, "I'm very sorry, I can't dance."

I don't know how these words touched Will's heart, and his expression moved slightly, "It's okay, Mrs. Lucy, the first time we met, I found that you were so incompatible with everything around you... You are noble and bright , Elegant, at that time, I fell in love with you at first sight, although I have been restraining myself today, I still remember the feeling of heartbeat..."

Lu Xuan: "Huh???"

He caught off guard and choked on his own saliva, "I... I already have a child!" He had to use Chanel as a banner to refuse.

Regardless of whether the person in front of him is an earl or an aristocrat, he only had the experience of falling in love with beautiful girls in the 25 years before his life. Although love in this era is not limited to gender, and same-sex marriage and childbirth have been open for nearly 400 years in the real society, he has not yet opened up to it. The degree to which you can date an NPC you just met.

Will persisted, "You are still unmarried."

"But I have already conceived a child with my partner." No wonder, Lu Xuan's heart collapsed.

Will smiled and said, "This is not a conflict, Master Lucy. After all, you haven't entered into marriage yet. If you like a stable relationship, I can also treat the baby as my own."

Lu Xuan was overwhelmed by him, and said righteously: "No need, Your Excellency Will, you are busy with work, so go back."

Will seemed a little disappointed, "I don't think your lover is considerate enough to you. An excellent mage like you should not be confined to a relationship. If you want, you can stay here for a long time. The college recommends you to become an honorary professor."

But Lu Xuan wanted to escape and said, "Your Excellency, please be sober, I'm just passing by here, I won't stay for long!"

Will stood up aggrieved, "Okay, Lord Lucy, please forgive my uncontrollable excitement when I heard the news that you are single. If you change your mind, you can always find me."

After that, he bowed to salute and left.

The veins on Lu Xuan's forehead twitched.

No matter how he goes in the future, feelings will never be a constraint on his footsteps, let alone develop an unstable relationship with a noble from a certain country, after all, this is just a game.

The game imitates the West in the Middle Ages. The territory is divided up by the nobles. The people in the territory are only loyal to the lord politically, and they are also dependent on the lord economically. They directly pay rent to the lord and the Holy See, which has the right to tax. The super lords eventually formed a feudal system of enfeoffment and allegiance.

Although the system is a bit outdated, magic has brought about the rapid development of the entire society in the past hundred years.

The consolidation of the Holy See's faith requires magical talents, and the royal power and secular academies also need to develop their own power, so Will will be so attentive to him, a mage who has no fixed allegiance.

The annual magic test is also an important occasion for the three parties to rob resources. The biggest nobleman in Nada County is Duke Reggie Gordon of the Rainbow Kingdom. This time, the ceremony before the start of the magic test will be presided over by him.

The Duke of Leiji is a successful middle-aged man, and he managed the territory in an orderly manner. The faction is thriving. This time, the School of Magic and Martial Arts gathered all the nobles and lords in the county to watch. more grand.

In the early morning, in the hotel, Chanel was sitting limply on a round chair, with his hands raised high, and the white robe naturally fell to his chubby feet——Lu Xuan was helping him to dress!But after only persisting for a while, the little guy couldn't sit still and twisted around.

Lu Xuan comforted: "Okay, okay, I have to wear formal clothes today."

The two took a luxurious carriage to the site of the magic ceremony - the Magic and Martial Arts Academy in Nada County.

Pass through the wide square and enter the Forest of Light, which is half-enclosed in the academy. This forest has a long-standing reputation, because there is an Alphonse Magic Echo Terrace built in the center of the forest. It is the most beautiful magic test point in the current Rainbow Kingdom rumors. , only opens in July every year.

Under the terrace, King Quan Xungui and the clergymen in fine attire arrived. The directors of the Mowu Comprehensive College had been waiting for a long time. Everyone chatted with each other as if they were at a reception, enjoying themselves happily.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime event for kids!"

"Isn't it!"

Rhodes and the three children had successfully arrived. So far, Lu Xuan felt more at ease. As long as the names were recorded on the spot, the quota for the magic test would be confirmed.

At present, Rhodes could only barely stand on the edge of the crowd according to the level of authority. After Lu Xuan greeted the three children, the three children were taken by the school management staff to line up in front of the Echo Terrace.

The tense atmosphere at the test site was intensified.

Because Lu Xuan is wearing a seventh-level mage robe, his status is comparable to that of a professor in the academy, so even though he looks strange, he has attracted many clergymen and nobles from the Holy See to talk to him. Nothing less than that.
