Celestial Mage

Chapter 208 Let go and do it, boy! (45)

The Castle of Maple Leaf Manor.

He had been here a dozen times over the past few months, and even spent a lovely night with his tutor in the castle's best guest room.

Every time he was in a relaxed mood, but this time, he was in a heavy mood, feeling that he was being pressed down by a boulder, which made him look solemn and concentrate his spirit.

This is the psychological pressure brought by the archmage.

The next conversation will determine his future in Huangshui Highland.

When he came to the hall, the butler greeted him.

"Master Rosen, there are distinguished guests waiting for you in the small sunshine hall on the second floor. The master asks you to go alone."

"Understood, thank you."

Rosen took a deep breath, stepped up the steps, and followed the familiar path to the second-floor corridor. After walking forward for more than ten meters, he turned right and boarded a small curved staircase, and he saw the wooden door of the Sunshine Hall.

Reach out and knock on the door.

'Tuk tuk ~'

"Come in!"

The earl's old but majestic voice came from behind the door, without the kindness of the past.

This is also normal, because his actions today have touched the core interests of the Omisia family.

To put it bluntly, it almost caused the brothers of the Omexia family to fight each other.

It would have been a great kindness for the count not to reward him directly with a moonfire.

Of course, Rosen had expected this scene a long time ago. He also knew that the Earl would never kill him, or even punish him. At most, he would just ignore him, let him stay away from the political situation, and focus on spells.

This is the confidence brought to him by his great reputation and his full knowledge of the Earl's character.

In other words, he now has a little willful capital.

Gently pushed the door open, walked in, and then gently closed the door.

As soon as it was closed tightly, a magical enchantment was formed in the small hall, completely isolating the inside and outside of the hall.

The earl was sitting on the bench, with his legs crossed and slanted to one side, and his hands folded on his knees, which was a standard lady's sitting posture.

Her face was stern, her eyes were like frost.

"Rosen, come to me, kneel on the ground ~ look into my eyes!"

The voice is like the icy cold wind in the north, just listening to it makes people chill.

Considering that the floor of the small hall was covered with cashmere carpet and was spotlessly clean, and the earl was not only a lord, but also a master of spells and his elder, it was only natural to kneel in front of her.

In fact, Rosen breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the elder made the junior kneel in front of him, not only intending to punish, but it also means acknowledging that the latter is his own.

Otherwise, instead of kneeling, he would use the hands of a mage to lift the person up and press him against the wall to question him!

Rosen took a few steps forward, knelt down in front of the earl, put his hands on the earl's knees, then raised his head, and met the earl's dark eyes.

There was a condensed light in the earl's dark eyes, indicating that his mana was surging rapidly, and any thought could release a terrifying spell with high-level power at an almost instant speed!
Rosen's dark blue eyes have both the clarity of a young man and the depth of a mage. Facing the gaze of a powerful mage, there is no flicker in the slightest.

After a long time, the earl said, "Why do you support Xia Bolai!"

Hearing this, Rosen felt relieved, because the other party didn't blame him for inciting brothers to kill each other, which meant that she was also very disappointed in Fubosi.

Rosen answered softly but firmly.

"Because my uncle saved my life when I was weakest, and he even showed me your book "A Brief Discussion on Spell Combat."

"I am very grateful, and I told him that I will definitely repay his kindness greatly. And this sentence, I have always kept it in my heart."

The Count sneered.

"So, the way you repay your kindness is to push him to the opposite of your own brother for your own self-interest, and let their brothers kill each other?!"

Rosen shook his head: "I hope he can become the next heir to the earl, that's right, but if Fubos is really smart and capable, then I have nothing to say."

"Kafubos is not!"

"He only sees fighting and victory, and he completely disregards the lives of civilians. The tens of thousands of refugees outside are proof of this!"

"If such a person becomes the lord of Silvermoon Castle, it will definitely lead to the destruction of Silvermoon Castle!"

"Perhaps, there is a plan for my personal self-interest, but it is also a plan for the future fate of nearly a million human races living in the entire Yellow River Highland for Omexia, Silvermoon Castle!"

The Earl's expression softened a little, the light in his dark eyes gradually dimmed, and his voice softened a lot.

"Do you really think so?"

Rosen nodded heavily.

"Ma'am, I can feel that you appreciate me very much and value me very much. You have helped me get out of trouble more times."

"Without your secret help, I would not be able to achieve what I am doing now."

"Uncle Xia Bolai is kind to me, and you are also kind to me."

"And I can also confidently say that after coming to the Yellow River Highlands, I may have some flaws in personal morality, but I have never done anything to damage the interests of Silvermoon Castle."

"In fact, everything I do is beneficial to Silvermoon Castle!"

"You must be clear about this!"

The count nodded slowly, and reached out to hold Rosen's hand.

"You are right, you have indeed done many great things. Because of what you have done, countless highlanders have benefited from it."

She sighed softly: "But you should have told me in advance."

Rosen also sighed: "Ma'am, you are busy with affairs. Not only do you have to manage the affairs of Silvermoon Castle, you also have to coordinate the interests of the other five towns, and you have to deal with the unreasonable demands of the envoys of Winter Castle."

"And I just finished the task of the temple. Not long after I came back, I noticed the conspiracy of the Sano family, so I started making preparations non-stop."

"Before that, I had been dealing with a group of truly cold-blooded and ruthless murderers in Baima Town."

"Damsis, the necromancer who believes in Vanderlon, the Frost Warriors who believe in the evil god Radha, and the god-given baron who is inhuman."

"I have wandered between life and death many times, and I have also seen the misery of countless civilians."

Speaking of this, tears welled up in Rosen's eyes, and he stared into the Earl's eyes.

He looked earnest.

"Madam, you are a benevolent and wise lord. You should know how much damage the lives of civilians will suffer when an incompetent but ruthless lord comes to power."

"I used to be a commoner, and I have suffered the most in this world. With your gift, I got rid of the fate of a commoner, but I can't forget my past experience."

"I hope that I can do my best to prevent the tragedy from happening."

The Earl did not expect that Rosen would have such an experience in Baima Town. Hearing what he said at this time, he felt that he was sincere.

Because there are many aristocrats who can speak beautiful words in this world, but if they put beautiful words into practice without putting their lives in danger, then the beautiful words are not beautiful words, but the quotations of heroes and saints!

What shocked her even more was that there was absolutely no need for Rosen to do this.

He had every reason to refuse the recruitment of the temple, but he did it anyway, which meant that everything he said was true.

No conspirator would risk his life, only a hero would!

She held Rosen's hand tightly, and sighed: "Lawson, do you really think Xia Bolai will be a good lord?"

Rosen shook his head: "Not yet, but I will try my best to persuade him. If words can't persuade him, I even plan to let him suffer a big loss and use actual experience to persuade him."

After finishing speaking, he hastily apologized: "Ma'am, I have presumptuously."

Sophia shook her head: "No, you didn't overstep. You are a talented mage, a hero who fulfills your promise, and a wise man with far-sighted vision. You are qualified to persuade this rambunctious bastard!"

"It is Xia Bolai's honor to be supported and advised by you!"

Hearing these words, Rosen knew that the earl had passed the test.

He asked softly: "Marshal Fubosi is very angry now, did he go to Mochiyue Garden to complain to you?"

The count nodded and snorted coldly: "Of course he is angry, because his younger brother who has always looked down on him has greatly robbed him of his fame."

"But what he's done has greatly disappointed me."

"The situation in New Moon Town did not take shape in a day or two. In fact, there were signs a long time ago. I taught him privately many times and told him to pay attention to his tactics, but he ignored them!"

"After learning about the riot, the first thing he thought of was revenge rather than the aftermath, and he didn't have the consciousness of a lord!"

"If I hadn't stopped him, who knows what would have happened!"

"Now, knowing that my younger brother has cleaned up the mess, I don't want to find out the dark hands who secretly opened the city gate, but complain to me that my younger brother has done too much!"

Speaking of this, the count's face was already full of anger, obviously extremely disappointed in Fubosi.

Rosen was silent.

It took a while for the count to calm down a little. When he looked down at Rosen, his eyes were full of emotion: "Actually, I often think that it would be great if you were my nephew, or even my son."

"In this way, I can teach you with all my strength and pour all my wisdom into you."

"I believe that you will grow rapidly and become a master of spells in the Glorious North Territory, and even in the entire Golden Land!"

"I believe that for you who can fully focus on spells, the master of spells may not be your end point. In the extraordinary realm, your name may be preserved."

"such a pity!"

It can be seen that these words are from the heart of Sophia
Rosen was also greatly shocked.

He couldn't help but put his head on Sophia's lap, sighing softly.

"Master Sophia, I am also very sorry."

"If I could meet you when I was ten, or even five or six years old, become your apprentice, be enlightened from an early age, and focus on spells, maybe I wouldn't be disturbed by the world."

"Perhaps, I will not be an intermediate mage now, but a high-level mage."

It's a pity that fate has no choice.

The two mages, one old and one young, all had expressions of emotion on their faces.

Afterwards, Rosen knelt on the ground with his head resting on the earl's knee, and the earl held Rosen's hand with one hand, and gently stroked his hair with the other hand, like a kind woman caressing her children and grandchildren.

After a long silence, the count said, "I will give Xia Bolai a chance to prove myself, but this is the last time!"

Rosen straightened his body and said in a concentrated voice: "Master Sophia, thank you for your selfless trust in me."

The count shook his head: "Don't be too happy, I haven't finished talking."

Rosen's heart shivered, knowing that the pure spiritual communication between mages had ended, and the laws of the world had returned.

"First of all, the mistakes in Crescent Town were made by Samler, and Samler has already paid the price with his life. Therefore, I cannot blame Fubosi too much."

"Fubos is still the commander-in-chief of the Second Legion, and he still has the opportunity to become the earl, but it has changed from the previous first pick to a two-person competition."

"I will set the bottom line of competition and ensure that there will be no brother-in-law situation.

"But I won't give Xia Bolai and you too much support, not only to avoid strong resistance from Fubosi, but also to block everyone's mouths."

"From now on, it's up to you to clean up the mess in New Moon Town."

"If the clean-up is good enough to satisfy the highland lords, and Chapple does reform himself and get rid of his bad habits, then he will be the next Earl."

"If it is not done well, Chapolet will still be notorious, and the Earl will still be Fubosi."

"have you understood?"

Rosen nodded seriously: "Understood."

But then there was a hint of apprehension on his face: "Madam, because of what happened today, I'm afraid I've completely offended President Fei Lun."

The earl snorted coldly when he heard the name Faerun.

"Don't worry, I still have the final say in Silver Moon Castle. I will warn him, if he dares to touch you, I will let him taste my Silver Moon Fire!"

After a pause, he said slowly: "But this person is good at conspiracies and tricks, you should be more careful yourself."

With the assurance from the archmage, Rosen felt at ease immediately.

"Madam, I will try my best to assist Chapolei and make him a qualified high lord."

The count stretched out his hand and gently touched Rosen's head, with a kind smile on his face again.

"Let it go, boy, I believe in you."
