Lord of Arcane

Chapter 301
"Okay, Dean, I don't even know when you got the talent of a bard?" Xia Duo patted Dean on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "On the road of magic, it's not just about how fast you go. It depends on how far it is, work hard!"

As the leader of the organization, Xia Duo, of course, cannot dampen the enthusiasm of the members. Instead, he must encourage them and let them see hope.

But another thing to consider!
The organization's development was restricted because of the fear of obstruction from the higher-ups of the Mage Tower, but now that he himself has become a higher-ups, it's time for the organization to let go of the restrictions.

After talking with the two about the past for a while, Xia Duo brought the topic to the organization and recruiting:
"Dean, Sammy, how many ordinary apprentices want to join us now?"

"Too much!"

Speaking of this, Dean's face was so excited that it made people feel that his fiery red hair was about to stand up with excitement, "You don't know how many people came back from the celebration yesterday to find me! People came to me until midnight!"

As if to prove it, Sammy also talked about the scene when he came back last night, and of course he talked more about those who wanted to join before:
"Before the Midsummer Festival, we have surveyed many people. Whether it is tending to interests or really agreeing with our ideas, there are almost 6 people who performed best. They speak enthusiastically in every discussion and can drive other people to participate. discuss."

Then, Sammy gave the detailed information of these six people briefly, and Dean also added from time to time.

While listening, Xia Duo recalled that it was more than a year ago for him. After listening, he nodded with satisfaction. After he left (open up), Dean and the others did indeed maintain this small organization.

"I have an idea, listen to it and see if it works. Since we have become official mages, er, Dean should be coming soon. I think all the members of the organization can be designated as official mages. Those who have not become official mages can Become a reserve member."

"A reserve member?"

"Yes! You should also feel it now. The gap in understanding of magic is too large, which will affect the effect of the seminar. I think it can be done in layers."

Then, Xia Duo said his plan that he had thought up a long time ago——

"In the future, probationary members can participate in the seminars of regular members, and under the probationary members, they can be divided into 'development objects', or 'prospective members'. The specific name can be thought of at a later time. In short, this probable member can participate in the probation members' discussion."

In fact, no matter how lofty ideals and ideas an organization has, as long as it becomes an organization, it will naturally be divided into classes-team leader-team member, president-member, senior-junior, and so on.

This is inevitable, and Xia Duo has no intention of forcibly fabricating an organization where everyone is equal. In this case, it is actually no different from no organization.

He can treat an ordinary person and a spellcaster equally now, but Dean and the others may not be able to do it, even if they also became spellcasters from ordinary people.

In this world, spellcasters have a natural sense of class superiority. Of course, from another perspective, spellcasters have powers that ordinary people do not possess. It is normal to have such a status and perception.

Originally, Xia Duo created this small organization just to improve the current "academic atmosphere" and provide some convenience for himself to acquire magic knowledge.

But now, the situation has changed, and changing the atmosphere is no longer the main purpose. Xia Duo wants to expand the organization even more. Isn't it a matter of course that the organization he created should be used by me!

Xia Duo's plan made Dean and Sami fall into deep thought. They really felt more and more that they didn't want to pay attention to those ordinary apprentices.

No matter how passionate the ideal was before, when he became or was about to become an official mage, he cooled down.

In other words, no matter how good an ideal is, it needs to be driven by interests.

The bigger the organization, the more formal mages, the more they will get, not just wasting time with apprentices every day.

Regarding Xia Duo's proposal, the two quickly responded, "Great! I (also) agree!"

Afterwards, the three of them discussed the rules of the organization and adjusted some rules that were suitable but outdated in the past. For example, everyone must agree to join the organization.

As the organization expands, this article will increasingly hinder the development of the organization.

Of course, these regulations have to be discussed with other people before they can be finally decided. Now it is just Xia Duo giving them an advance notice.

This is also in line with the organizational philosophy, cooperation, openness, sharing, and win-win.

"Okay, think about it slowly. If you have any other suggestions, we will discuss them when we meet. I have to leave beforehand. By the way, don't forget to supervise their work."

In the eyes of the Tower of Time, no matter whether it is a formal apprentice or an ordinary apprentice, they are essentially servants, and there is still no shortage of work that should be done by them.

Xia Duo briefly explained to the two of Dean, and then left the Arcane Garden directly. He chose to ignore Ta Ling's sentence "Mage Xia Duo, you have left your post, please return immediately".

The small organization needs to develop and grow, which cannot be hidden from Niya. It is best to discuss this kind of matter in advance, so as not to inadvertently touch some taboo and be hunted down all over the world.

Of course, it is also because Niya is in charge of the current Tower of Time that he dared to do this. If it were replaced by Lord Epps, he would not dare to test it at will.

Although he doesn't have much contact with Niya, from the only contact he has, Xia Duo thinks he knows her character quite well!
It is indeed the state of a fledgling young man, not some unfathomable old monster.

……

"Mage Xia Duo!"

"Mage Xia Duo!"

"Ah! Master Xiaduo!"

"Xia Duo, have a drink together if you have time, and introduce you to two friends!"

……

Xia Duo just went to the public floor halfway to receive the monthly share after the elevated authority, and people kept saying hello to him along the way.

There are official mages and apprentices, some of them know each other, but most of them don't. Xia Duo responded to them one by one, saying a few words to the official mages, and nodding to the apprentices.

In the elevator, Xia Duo couldn't help complaining, "It seems that I have become the 'Today's Star' of the Tower of Time!"

When he came to the top floor, although he didn't contact Niya in advance, both the door of the reception room and the door of the study room were still opened for him.

Niya was sitting on the desk, lost in thought, the pen in her hand had dropped to the paper on the desk at some point, and the ink was stained.

"Niya." Xia Duo called softly, but Niya didn't seem to hear it at all, but her eyes flickered for a moment.

"Niya, tutor Niya?"

The almost teasing voice made Niya couldn't bear it any longer. She raised her head and glared at Xia Duo, "Why are you here? Has the Arcane Garden been tidied up?"

Why did I come here? I don't believe you don't know when I leave the Arcane Garden!
Of course, it is impossible for Xia Duo to really say this, and Niya might really turn her face if she said it, "The Arcane Garden is already being sorted out, and production will definitely resume within a week."

After finishing speaking, Xia Duo pretended to ask casually: "Can't a demiplane like Arcane Garden be directly controlled by Ta Ling?"

But Niya just stared at him and didn't say a word for a long time, until Xia Duo felt his scalp itchy, Niya said: "The tower of time has insufficient energy reserves, save as much as you can!"
