"That's the gatekeeper of the Well of Mercury. As long as he has authority, there is no danger."
The pressure on her body suddenly disappeared, Mu En took a deep breath and couldn't help asking:
"What if there is no authority?"
"No?"
Professor Prang raised his tone for a moment, as if mocking.
"Any enemy who wants to invade the Well of Quicksilver, the first thing to do is to hide from the gatekeeper's eyes.
If you can't hide it...
Those who can't hide it are already dead. "
He glanced at the ground near the elevator, where there was a huge dark red spot, like dried blood.
For decades, the ground where many strong men have been turned into fleshy mud has not been wiped clean.
Shocked by Professor Prang's words, Mu En shrank her neck, glanced at the steel giant, and hurriedly stepped up to follow Professor Prang's pace.
The sound of footsteps was crisp, echoing layer after layer in the empty and quiet corridor, like countless people beating the beat in the dark, a little scary.
Mu En rubbed her arms, trying to bring up a topic, in order to dispel the chill in her heart, but because the person in front of her was that old-fashioned and serious Professor Prang, she didn't know what to say.
"Your father is also my student." Professor Prang said suddenly.
"Eh?"
Mu En made a slight sign, and then quickly came back to her senses:
"Father also studied at Santa Maria College?"
"Since the establishment of the college, all the heirs of your Campbell family have been studying in the college."
Professor Prang paused and said:
"After all, the Campbell family is one of the founders of the college, and it is still one of the major shareholders of the college, holding the right to decide some major events of the college."
"I didn't even know that the Campbell's family was still a shareholder of the college." Mu En exclaimed.
"Don't think too much."
Professor Prang said coldly:
"According to the original agreement, only the Duke of Campbell can interfere with some of the college's affairs, so no matter whether it was your father back then or you now, entering the college is just a student, and you didn't dictate to the college. s right."
"I don't think so."
Mu En scratched her head harmlessly.
There seems to be no benefit to pointing fingers at the college, except that it is easy to be slapped on the wall by Professor Prang and can't be buckled off.
He is not the kind of unruly nobleman who would take advantage of his privilege to pour champagne all over the swimming pool, and use the name of the ball to peek at the smooth thighs of girls under their white skirts.
He prefers black silk.
"Then what was my father like when he was studying in the college?" Mu En asked.
"Your father."
Professor Prang paused for a moment, seeming to be lost in a distant memory.
Then, there was a trace of sob in his tone.
"At that time, Ron Campbell was just like his current title."
"title?"
Mu En thought for a while: "The Lion King?"
"Yes, the Lion King, the leader of the pride."
A gleam flashed in Professor Prang's old eyes, and said:
"From the time he entered the academy, he was like a lion king standing above a hundred beasts, radiant and extremely dazzling.
Humility, bravery, studious, dedicated, these qualities that a good nobleman should have, shone like a badge on his chest.Many students are impressed by his character and follow him sincerely, and he always keeps moving forward surrounded by everyone.
And those things accumulated in his student days became an important cornerstone for him to quickly carry the banner of Campbell in that turmoil, that is, the incident where your grandfather died unfortunately.
He is a man who makes everyone admire him at the first sight and lives up to Campbell's name.
so……"
Professor Prang turned to look at Mu En with a complicated expression:
"I was so disappointed when I first met you in the academy a year ago."
[WEB] 53. Road
The old man can still recall the scene from a year ago.
At that time, he was standing in his office in the big clock tower, just like at the beginning of this semester, looking at the energetic students as they walked in through the gate.
He had a little expectation, because he knew that the heir of the Campbell family would enter the academy from there, and what he hoped to see was a young man who was shining like the lion king, showing his brilliance in this academy again.
and so.
When the blond boy who was surrounded by a group of maids and got off the carriage pulled by the griffin appeared in sight, he felt sincere disappointment.
Because with just one glance, he could tell what kind of person that young man was.
Just like the aristocratic sons that have never been lacking in this academy, he is conceited, arrogant, with his eyes above the top, full of the smell of money, and the unique pretentiousness of the aristocrats.
Only in the mind, there is nothing.
Later, what that Mr. Campbell did also confirmed his vision.
If you use four words to describe it, it is that the mud cannot support the wall, and it is unbearable.
After trying to correct it to no avail, he had already given up.
Just didn't expect...
Professor Prang glanced at Moon now,
In the end, it turned out to be me who was mistaken.
……
"So my father was so good in college?"
After listening to Professor Prang's description of his father, Mu En exclaimed in surprise.
I thought it was true, as the rumors said, that the Campbells of all ages were the ultimate reckless men through and through.
"A reckless person with power is called brave and courageous, and a reckless person who lacks strength is called reckless. It just so happens that the Dukes of Campbell in all generations have not lacked the word strength."
As if seeing through Mu En's thoughts, Professor Prang explained leisurely.
"That's it." Mu En scratched her head.
Also.
How could a man who was able to secure his position as the duke, let the emperor sign a marriage contract between his daughter and his son, and even now command the army on the border, be just a simple reckless man?
only……
Will such an excellent man be blinded by excessive love and lead to raising and crippling his own son?
So the word parents...
Mu En couldn't help sighing.
"So, Professor Prang, you hate me so much, isn't it because I only learned one lighting technique last semester?"
Mu En then asked.
click.
As soon as Mu En finished speaking, Professor Pu Lang froze suddenly.
"Of course, why would I hate you for such a trivial matter? After all, your Campbell family has long been prepared for your magical attainments and talents."
Professor Prang's tone was still very flat, and he seemed to have no waves.
"Your excellent father only has magic as a subject, and he has never passed. The only magic he learned seriously is the magic that can make flowers bloom at any time in order to pursue your mother."
"Really, it seems that father is also a magic idiot hahaha..."
"But even for him, it only took two weeks to learn the lighting technique."
Professor Prang turned his head, expressionless and deep in tone.
It's just that when he moved his five fingers holding the cane slightly, he could see the clear fingerprints on it.
"By the way, I taught my cats this magic in three days."
"..."
He also said that he didn't hate it, it feels like you are going to hit me with a cane at any time now, okay!
Mu En felt that a big danger word would pop up above her head at any moment, and began to think that if Professor Prang really wanted to beat himself to death in such a place, he should use that posture to beg for mercy, which would be more in line with the status of the Duke's son.
"However... I admit that you have indeed changed, Moon Campbell."
In the end, Professor Prang didn't do anything, he just sighed leisurely, then turned around and continued to walk towards the depths of the passage.
"Since you can improve your general introduction to magic to this level within a month, I believe that for you, the curse of the Campbell family's lack of magic can be easily broken.
You might actually surpass your father as the best Duke of Campbell that ever lived. "
"That's an exaggeration." Unexpectedly, Professor Prang would suddenly praise himself like this, and Mu En was a little shy.
"Really? I used to be sure, but after witnessing your changes, I don't trust my presbyopia anymore.
but……"
Professor Prang suddenly changed his voice:
"I didn't expect, Moon Campbell, that you would make such a decision."
"Ok?"
A question mark appeared above Mu En's head, and she looked at Professor Prang's back in puzzlement.
Then he realized that Professor Prang was talking about...Mr. Meera?
"Although I don't know the details of the road that Meladomir is pursuing, I know that it is not a bright and smooth road.
At least for you, Moon Campbell, the promising son of the duke, that is not a path worth choosing. "
Professor Prang continued:
"You should have a better and more stable choice. If you want to gain strength, the inheritance of the Campbell family is not weak. You just need to go on steadily step by step. Even if you still only get three points in the basic introduction to magic, In the future, the achievement of warriors, breaking through the coronation level, and becoming a crown wearer is also a certainty.
Even if you don't like the name of the Campbell family's brash, as the son of a duke, your resources and starting point are far beyond ordinary people. As long as you show your tenacity and hard work to rush to an excellent level in a month, take other paths, and your future will be brighter. Achievements, certainly not too low.
But you seem to be in a hurry, so anxious that it makes people curious..."
Professor Prang turned his head again, his old but still sharp eyes showed a trace of exploration:
"As the heir of the Campbell family, the absolute pillar of the future empire, and even the partner of the princess, Moon Campbell, what are you afraid of?"
"I……"
Faced with Professor Prang's question, Mu En opened her mouth silently.
afraid of what?
Of course, it's just the word fate.
If possible, he doesn't want to work so hard, he also wants to step towards a bright future step by step, and marry the person he likes amidst the church bells and rose petals.
He also wanted to be an ordinary son of a duke, and when his father was old or ready to retire, he would take over from him, obtain the inheritance of the Campbell family, and live out his life with the legendary surname of Campbell.
He wants to live.
He wants to be happy.
So Easy.
However, fate does not allow it.
