After his little joy ended, he looked in the direction Roland pointed.

Indeed, the enemy's Duke Peter was their "war hero". If they could get his head, the title of the Twelve Star Knight would be a sure thing!

Scott smiled slightly: "I will work towards that direction!"

Whoosh——

A golden magic circle appeared in front of Scott, and a golden envelope emerged from the magic circle...

Scott stretched out his hand, and the letter landed precisely in his hand.

Hmm... a golden envelope with yellow decoration and a lily pattern.

Confirmed that it was Sheen who wrote the letter.

"Good, he's still alive."

Scott muttered in a voice that only he could hear.

Roland, who has no magical talent, was amazed when he saw this method of sending messages:

"This is the privilege of having magic. I can't experience the charm of magic anymore. It's amazing."

"Is that a compliment? If so, I'd say 'thank you'." Scott looked down at the letter, carefully comparing the handwriting on the envelope as he answered.

Yes, exactly the same as the previous letter.

Sheen is indeed still alive.

Is he going to explain to me what happened during this period?

......

After Scott finished enjoying the cool breeze, he returned to the room and placed the letter on the wooden table covered with two animal skins.

Then he took out a letter opener from the tung oiled bookshelf and carefully opened the letter. He then held the letter in his left hand and read:

"To Scott Impess:

Come to think of it, we haven't been in touch for a long time. Have you heard that I was in a carriage accident and died?

I certainly don't think you'll be surprised.

You see, as long as Uncle Arthur is alive, Haines cannot judge the authenticity of Xi Lun's orthodoxy.

Besides, if I really died, I wouldn’t write this letter to you (hahaha, do you think this is my last letter to you?)..."

Scott showed a helpless look on his face——

You're still joking at this point, how optimistic.

"(The letter continues)... I heard that you are currently on the battlefield, so I can only briefly tell you about my situation:

I was indeed badly injured in the carriage accident, and the doctor said I should need a long period of rest and could not attend to any affairs during this time.

After thinking about it, I decided to announce to the public that Sheen was dead and hand over all the matters in my hands to Ivan.

During the years I was recuperating, my position in the Magic Tower became vacant.

The teacher suggested that I discuss with my senior brother whether we should find someone else to take over my duties inside the Magic Tower during my rest period.

But the decision on everything lies in the hands of my senior brother, and I don’t know what he would think.

Anyway, I'm fine.

May you fight hard and return safely.

Sean Haynes

After reading the letter, Scott was petrified, even as he was glad that Sheen was still alive.

Scott's eyes widened as the letter fell from his hand onto the table.

(Silence, silence...)

so...

Scott had some impression that Eve Esther became famous after conquering the Zephyr Crystal, and he heard that she became the new chief magician.

The second apprentice, Sheen, had to retreat to the second line for recuperation...

Ivan Esther, Esther's younger brother and Sheen's senior, inherited Sheen's property and had to run these businesses with all his strength.

They have a pretty good relationship.

So...

Scott's expression became serious:

"After Eve became the chief, she will be the person with the most say in the magic tower besides the magic tower master!"

Speaking of Esther and her brother, Scott thought of the time when he encountered them as Stella.

It was a "military marriage". And the Duke's words "find a chance to put Scott in the magic tower for internship" -

That means Scott has to choose between these two.

But since he met the brother and sister, and saw Ivan's gentlemanly demeanor and Eve's enthusiastic help: he felt that choosing only one would be a huge loss for him!

Scott almost broke down:

"Uh! They happen to be siblings, why can't I split Scott and Stella into two people? That would be easier!"

Oh, no no...

...

Magic Tower.

The sun was shining but the temperature was not high, and a cool breeze was blowing outside.

Ivan's private residence.

Sean sat on the sofa, eating the egg tarts he had packed and reading the reply letter Scott had written not long ago.

Ada, who came to visit him, sat opposite him and also enjoyed the delicious egg tart.

Due to the temple's reasons, Ada did not "find a job" for the time being after graduation and continued to stay at home in the Magic Tower.

So apart from dealing with the trivial viscount affairs, Ada had a lot of free time at her disposal.

(Sound of pouring tea)

The tea area on the side was controlled by magic, brewing fragrant tea for the two and placing it next to them.

"The egg tarts in this shop are really good. But judging from your posture...did you rob that dessert shop?"

Ada looked at the egg tarts on the plate on the table, and then imagined the egg tarts in the refrigerator.

She shivered.

"What do you mean by robbery? We bought all these with our own money. And the refrigerator developed by the Magic Tower is so powerful that it will stay fresh for several days."

After Sheen finished swallowing the egg tart, he replied nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I can finish it."

Thinking back, the scene when Arthur took him to the dessert shop and packed up all the egg tarts on the counter was really spectacular.

But that was also Arthur's wish, otherwise Sheen would not have let Arthur buy so much.

My uncle's love is like a landslide, which is unacceptable...

"Oh..."

Ada ended the topic perfunctorily.

It was hard for her eyes not to notice the dark green envelope and the used letter opener on the table.

Looking back, Sheen was reading the letter with great interest.

Ada asked tentatively:

"Apparently, Scott wrote to you?"

"To be exact, it was his reply to my letter."

Xien raised the letter in his hand and replied calmly,

"I wrote to Scott last night to let him know I was safe - I thought I'd better tell him I was still alive, so he wouldn't be suspicious about Sheen's death..."

Sheen did not forget to add:

"Of course I made up some lies. I wouldn't be stupid enough to let him know that Ivan or Eve are both mine. Otherwise, what would he think when he comes to the Magic Tower in the future?"

Ada half-opened her eyes and said calmly:

"It's fine if he knew you were Ivan, but if he knew Eve was also you - he would definitely explode."

Xien took a bite of the egg tart and held it in his mouth, then sneered.

You know, the rumors from the outside world are fully known to the Magic Tower: since Haynes can't wait to win over Ivan, it means that Impes' situation is not good.

Everyone guessed that Impess would also use some means, such as Eve officially becoming the chief, and she is only one year older than Scott...

Sheen was stunned: Why did I think of Scott?

Oh, Sheen, what are you thinking about?

Ida tilted her head and muttered:

"Recently, I heard rumors that Haines wants to establish a relationship with Ivan, and so does Impes. And there are also rumors that Impes's close family wants to have a certain lady marry Ivan to gain support for the war."

Marrying Ivan...

An image of Stella appeared in Sheen's mind.
