After I became a real young master, I became famous for my bad behavior

Eric reluctantly put the suitcase by the door, then straightened up and looked at Sheen:

"Well, you haven't gone through the same preparation process as me... or you are naturally gifted in magic..."

Eric muttered:

"As expected of someone blessed by God - you remind me of my brother."

From Eric's perspective, his brother is also a gifted guy:

Not only does he have an innate talent for governance, he is also an extremely rare magic swordsman in Impresia.

Is it really true that “hard work is nothing compared to talent”?

Sheen sat up suddenly and rolled his eyes at Eric:

"What? I've also put in a lot of effort. Look at the pile of review materials on my desk!"

Of course he also knew that this body was growing—

The system display behind him showed Xien the current binding qualifications:

Force: 38

Stamina: 40

Courage: 31

Mana: 46

Prestige: 36

Strategy: 42

Wisdom: 44

Eloquence: 41

Talent: 39

Emotional Intelligence: 37

Sheen is 16 years old, and the required qualification score is 35.

Having all his qualifications pass the test was a big step forward in Xien’s life, especially his emotional quotient, which had reached 37.

Finally it’s not 0!

When Sean turned around to check these qualifications, he still thought of his dark history of having zero emotional intelligence. And...

"Military power, physical strength, but magic power, prestige...

They have not yet reached the level required to transform themselves into containers of magic power."

But don't worry too much.

There are still nine years before the real drama of "The Mediation Game" begins, and this period of time is enough for me to do a lot of things to improve myself.

When Sheen was lost in thought, Eric's question brought his thoughts back.

"I said--"

Eric asked his question in a roundabout way:

"Winter vacation is coming soon, where are you going?"

"what..."

Sean blinked twice at Eric in confusion:

"I?"

A digression:

Due to climate issues in the north of the empire and Pereo's location, the academy has a two-month winter break and a one-month summer break.

The summer vacation in the north is not hot, so most students choose to stay in college to escape the heat.

But winters in the north are extremely cold, with blizzards even lasting more than half a month.

Two months is enough for students in the south to take the train provided by the college to go back and reunite with their families and spend the winter.

Thinking of this, Xien pointed at himself in confusion.

His current situation is "having a home but unable to return":

"You know, I will never go back to Duke Haines's Palace. Otherwise, they will try to take away the reward given to me by the royal family when they see me."

Although the emperor assured him that Haines would not know anything about the reward given to Sheen, he could not guarantee that the fact that Sheen received the royal reward would not be accidentally revealed to Haines by other officials.

Sheehan said:

"I can't afford to offend, but can I avoid him?"

(Chatter mode)

"Besides, Xilun failed to summon Iris a while ago. It would be embarrassing if we told others about it...

"If I go back at the height of the storm, won't he tear me apart in a minute?"

When Eric heard Sheen describing his biological family in this way, he immediately turned his back to prevent Sheen from seeing the smile on his face.

(The scene of Sheen putting the Duke of Haines's Mansion on the blacklist played in his mind)

After Eric calmed down, he turned around and asked Sheen seriously:

"So, you're going back to your uncle?"

"Maybe?"

Sheen tilted his head.

“As for the royal rewards, I just need to be clear about it. Giving them is a favor, and not giving them is my duty.

"I want to do my duty, so it's best not to see them while I'm studying."

And Uncle Arthur was the only "friendly force" Sheen could think of - it was better to spend the winter there than to stay in Haines.

Eric clasped his hands together and said calmly:

"I understand that you don't want to have anything to do with them, but...

"If I don't see Haines... wouldn't the northern part of the empire be safer?"

Eric covered his mouth to hide his smile.

“Although Arthur is your uncle, we all know that the Earl of Eaton is a famous businessman in the north.

"The Earl of Eaton was busy trading with the nobles in the south during the winter vacation, and you were left alone in your empty room after you returned."

...

This is a factor Sheen hadn't considered:

No wonder I didn't see Arthur for two months during the three years I stayed in the magic tower...

Seeing Eric's smug look, Sean felt that Eric was hiding some little secret:

"I see that you look like you are looking forward to something."

Of course Sheen did not refute Eric's point of view -

Haines would never risk being disturbed by the severe cold weather to come to the north to find Sheen, say something to him, and share the royal reward.

"Yes~"

Eric slapped his hands together, making a snapping sound.

He smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits! This scared Sheen a lot.

Eric took a few steps forward and sat on the sofa not far from Sean, then said to Sean calmly:

"Come to my house to spend the winter this winter vacation."

Staying at someone else's house for two months under the pretext of spending the winter there sounds like a good idea.

but...

"No, your house is the Duke of Impess's Mansion!!"

Sean really "struggled to death and sat up in shock". He stood up again and again and shouted at Eric, his eyes full of:

"Dude, are you serious?"

Eric raised his left hand in front of him:

“Sheen?

"Do you think I would joke with you in this way?

"You know, in order to make you feel at ease to come to my house, I specifically asked Mr. Arthur for his opinion. After listening to my thoughts, he said,

Eric pretended to be mysterious and turned a blind eye to what Arthur said in response to him:

"'Let Sheen get familiar with the living habits of the Impes family as soon as possible. It is also a rare cognitive training for the heir...'"

(Low EQ: I agree)

Sheen said that at that moment he seemed to see Arthur saying this in front of him.

"This kid...actually learned the essence - Arthur's mysterious look and coaxing tone!"

Sheen suddenly realized what was happening and touched his pocket.

!

"Where's my communication stone?" Sheen's eyes widened.

"Here ~ hahaha!" Eric held Sheen's communication stone in his hand.

"Oh my God!"

Xien grabbed the communication stone.

Then he lowered his head and rubbed it several times, and only raised his head after confirming that it was fine:

"You stole my things and you're still right?"

Although Eric's hand hurt from being hit, he was not angry:

"Just now, there's a hole in your school uniform pocket. This thing fell to the ground."

He pointed with a smile to the inconspicuous patch on Sheen's coat: This was his masterpiece.
