Platinum Throne

When Norma saw Caroline for the first time, she was not really young.

At that time, Norma was more than a hundred years old. To be specific, it was a secret that women used to keep, the kind that could not be easily revealed.Of course, as far as the abyssal demons are concerned, she is still a cub, but for humans, this length of time is enough to make her famous throughout the continent.

As the Tower of Platinum, a talented person who has always occupied the top spot in the mainland, a large number of countries and celebrities invite her every year. It is no exaggeration to say that the name cards sent every year can be sold just by scraping off the gold foil on them. It's a lot of extra money for Norma's assistant.Sometimes the Tower of Platinum would assign her such tasks, traveling to various countries. Although the practitioners were far away from the secular world, their eating, drinking, and research funds still had to rely on secular forces to operate.

Norma is not good at dealing with people, and sometimes Rudolph will deliberately arrange such behaviors for her to help her integrate into the human world.It was under such circumstances that Norma came to the Holly Principality.

It was spring, maybe summer, Norma couldn't remember exactly.She only remembered that the Holly Principality at that time was lush and full of greenery.On the white corridor are the lord and her relatives. A large number of nobles piled up behind them, watching Norma cautiously, looking at her indifferent face like a stone sculpture.

The young Caroline was among the children of the lord.At that time, the king was nearly 30 years old, not too old, and he had not too many children.As the daughter born in the middle, Caroline was hardly favored.In Norma's memories, she couldn't even remember what kind of clothes Caroline was wearing at that time, and what kind of expression she had, but she only remembered that little ball nestling aside.With a little curiosity and awe, he looked at her probingly.

Exactly the same expression as everyone else.It's just that Norma took a look at her more, because there was a piece of black mud on the corner of her skirt, and Norma had a slight cleanliness, so her memory was more vivid—the kind of bad impression.

"I am Norma Hill, the spell operator sent by the Platinum Tower this year. In the next three years, I will be responsible for teaching you the basic knowledge of spell operators. If there are outstanding candidates, I have a recommendation quota for you I recommend you to the Platinum Tower."

Norma said this as a matter of routine, and the king showed a satisfied smile.

The children were pushed in front of Norma one after another, and they would all be taught by Norma until someone withdrew voluntarily, or Norma had someone he liked, and thus climbed up the big tree of the Platinum Tower.

Norma doesn't care who the king pushes in front of her. For her, this is just a three-year task. As soon as she completes it, she walks away. She will not see these children in the future, nor will she become his She refuses to be anyone's mentor, she just wants to stay in her own laboratory and do her own experiments quietly.

At the first meeting, Norma did not leave a deep impression on Caroline.She educated this group of children as always, and she didn't care at all that these children secretly competed under her nose for the possible recommendation quota.She always came here with a straight face to give the most basic teaching, and then left without any regrets afterwards, never communicating with anyone.

But my impression of Caroline deepened on a sunny day in the afternoon.This kitten-like child was pressed into the mud and turned into a dirty kitten.

Children are sometimes innocent and sometimes cruel, perhaps it is because of the cruelty of innocence that they appear particularly pure.For Caroline at the time, that was it.

Norma watched the group of children from a distance, from quarreling to pushing and finally pushing Caroline into the mud.She watched quietly and silently, until she saw the child jump up suddenly, kick the boy who was holding her down, into the mud, and at the same time jump on him, grab his hair, and then He was firmly pressed in the mud.

Caroline's ferocity stunned the others. Someone yelled, and a group of children ran away out of sight.

At the trial time, he was vicious, fierce, and calm.This is Norma's first perception of Caroline.After Caroline taught her enemies a lesson, Norma said calmly, "Stop it."

The girl raised her head abruptly, her lake green eyes looked in the direction of Norma from afar.

"Do you also think I did something wrong?" Caroline yelled fiercely at Norma, she wiped her cheek vigorously, there was a little blood, covered with mud, it didn't look good.

"No, you've done a good job. You have to be merciless when dealing with the enemy." Norma replied with a serious voice, as if she was giving a serious report.She clapped her hands, and Caroline involuntarily let go, and then the boy who had almost fallen into a coma was sent aside, all the filth disappeared, and not even a scar could be seen.

"But if you can't be killed with one move, you'd better learn to be patient. Otherwise, you'll only startle the snake." Norma tapped Caroline again, and Caroline's body also became radiant.

Caroline froze for a moment, her eyes suddenly lit up, just when the child was about to say something.Norma turned her head in disinterest and left.

When did Caroline become the most frequent person around her?Norma couldn't recall it anymore, all she knew was that before she knew it, the children she taught had disappeared around her one by one, replaced by Caroline.

Only Caroline.

Norma doesn't care how many children have become. She just goes to class every day, and thinks silently after class. It's just that sometimes, she also feels a little annoyed.

This child never stops chattering, and Norma sometimes thinks she is annoying, but the moment before the outbreak, the child immediately shuts her mouth, so Norma can only suppress her emotions reluctantly .

This child will give her a lot of things, some she doesn't like, some she just throws away after a few glances, and occasionally there are things she looks at a few more times.What she didn't like no longer appeared around her, and what she looked at more quickly disappeared, only those dispensable things remained.

At the beginning, Norma didn't understand why, but later she knew the reason, but she easily forgave Caroline, because those things were not important.

She once comforted herself that as long as these three years passed, she would never see the child again.Three years later, she handed over the place of Platinum Tower to this child.At that time, she was very relieved, but she didn't expect that after many years, she saw this girl in the White Pyramid. The girl had grown up, and she grinned at her with a youthful smile and said: "My mentor, I coming."

"My mentor, what are you thinking?"

Caroline's voice was playful and cute, her head tilted slightly, and she suddenly poked her head in front of Norma's eyes, her fingers grasped Norma's hand tightly, and forcefully squeezed her fingers between her fingers, and the two were tight Hold each other tightly.

Norma looked down at her hand and shook it slightly. Caroline tightened her fingers and held Norma's hand tightly.So Norma stopped moving and turned a blind eye.

"Your brother..." Norma was silent for a moment, she suddenly didn't know what she should say, she had said not long ago that this was Caroline's private matter, she shouldn't ask more.This violated her nature, and also violated the established rules of the human world.

Norma frowned in embarrassment.

"Don't worry, he won't affect our trip. This is just a small episode, a little fun." Caroline said, she smiled, her smile was innocent and pure, like a child, with pure malice .

"Do you still remember when you saw me later? The one I pressed into the mud?"

Norma struggled to recall, but she only remembered the kitten that was buried in the mud, and the pair of eyes that suddenly brightened and stared at her.

Norma shook her head.

"It's okay, it's not a big deal." Caroline replied indifferently, she shrugged her shoulders, as if she didn't care about the upcoming meeting between siblings.

But Norma knew that Caroline was more than that. Caroline was a rational and calm person. Since she did this, there must be a reason for it. Maybe it was hatred, or something else, but it was not The affection between siblings.

Caroline made a gesture to move forward, but with a slight wave of her hand, she was tightly grasped.Caroline turned her head in surprise. She met Norma's golden eyes. These eyes, once inhuman and indifferent, were now filled with inexplicable emotions.

Norma paused every word, speaking with great difficulty and full of confusion: "I'm a little... worried, yes, yes, worried."

Caroline paused, then opened her mouth and smiled brightly: "What do you have to worry about me? I am the magister of the Platinum Tower. I am a student of your demigod."

Norma was not confused by Caroline's words. She looked at Caroline seriously and said firmly, "I'm by your side."

After saying this, Norma seemed to feel that the stone that had been lifted in her heart was finally put down and fell steadily, and she felt a sense of peace of mind.She gave a small easy smile.Caroline stood there quietly. She looked at her mentor's smile. After a long time, she also raised her lips, walked into her mentor, opened her hands, and embraced her mentor vigorously. inside.

Caroline's strength was a bit strong, and she pressed Norma tightly into her arms, which made Norma feel a little uncomfortable.But Norma didn't resist. She didn't even know why she didn't resist. Maybe it was because when two people embraced, the feeling was safe and beautiful, as if it could be extended infinitely.

"My mentor..." Caroline seemed to want to say something, but she finally swallowed the words in her throat.Soon she raised her head.Smiling at Norma, with her usual heartless look, "Let's go, it's been so many years, and I haven't seen him for a long time. I'm a very vindictive woman."

So it seems that there is still a deep hatred between the two, Norma said, and followed Caroline, if his kitten wants to beat the first heir of the Holly Duchy, it is not a big problem, as long as Just don't kill people.Norma thought slowly, she has everything anyway.
