"...Good morning, Your Highness Sutrick."

Kolusta frowned, glanced at the water stains lingering on the ground, and evoked a formulaic smile without any emotion, "I hope that when you greet me next time, it's best not to use this Way to 'surprise'."

Sutrick didn't feel offended by her slightly dissatisfied reminder, but instead shrugged his shoulders quite amiably, trying to dismiss the topic as peaceful as possible.

"Okay, for the rudeness just now, I must once again extend my sincere apologies to you—but please allow me to say one more thing, that was really a wonderful water magic, I have never seen one The combat awareness of the graders is so good that they can successfully launch a not-low-level attack on the enemy in such a short period of time..."

In the Holy Light Academy of Magic, the homework arrangement of the first-year students is biased towards theory.

They will mainly adapt to the college environment, and can only focus on learning some basic knowledge, but they have no chance to improve their ability to use magic with the help of teachers.

And the mystery of this wonderful power known as the "relic of divine power"... until they entered the second grade, the academy would not allow students to have a certain degree of contact and exploration.

So, from the perspective of strength, in the eyes of the second graders, the vast majority of first graders...they are really children, the kind that can be poked down with one finger.

——However, Kolusta is different from them.

Satrick had a smile on his face, his hair seemed to be tempered with a layer of dazzling gilt under the sun, his pupils were slightly deep, but by standing against the light, every bit of unclear emotion in them was expressed. are firmly hidden.

A commoner magician who can master natural elements precisely without any guidance from anyone... Judging by Sutrick's keen insight into people, her future is bound to be limitless.

This brown-haired girl is a long sword that has not been drawn out of its sheath. It looks ordinary, but once it is ready to shine, it will be extremely sharp and the light will be exposed.

With such a potential character, either hold her in the palm of his hand and use her for himself; or simply destroy her so that the other party has no chance to stab him back.

As the wise ruler who is both cautious and good at employing people in the future, Satrick chose the former without any hesitation when Kolusta was not a threat to him.

——And because his younger sister Starangui regarded him as a thorn in the side, the decision to "destroy Kolusta by its roots" was probably a manifestation of choosing the latter.

In fact, for so long, Satrick has been hesitating how he should win over Kolusta at the right time. After all, this very vigilant commoner girl has repeatedly rejected his overtures, and in private with Gero. Leah's bond grows closer...

This is really bad for Sutrick's plan.

Because we all know that the Celentdis family is on the same front as Starangui.

In this way, with the prudence of His Royal Highness, it is better to find a way to provoke the relationship between Ke Ge and the two of them first, and then express their intention to solicit after they gradually become estranged. This is the safest strategy.

However, before he could figure out a suitable divorce plan, some accidents occurred suddenly but imperceptibly in the corner.

Sutrick's snatching of the right to distribute invitation letters to the Pharmacy Conference last time seems to have aroused Starangui's awareness and dissatisfaction. The trade of multiple industries under the former's name was all hindered overnight, and even the original easy-going The task of distributing invitation letters gradually began to be full of problems.

It seems that these are all counterattacks from his good sister.

So, once the second princess starts to launch an offensive, I am afraid that a talent like Kolusta who has no background and has not been recruited by Satrick will become the first victim.

This very likely chain reaction forced Satrick to seize the "now" which was not the best opportunity, and when Kolusta was still close to Gloria, once again He tentatively threw an olive branch at the opponent.

And now, this deserted forest path is a wonderful place for conversation.

——The first step in the successor's guide to selecting talents and talents: speak well and wear a high hat.

It is necessary to keep the other party's praises full of enthusiasm and riding a tiger, so as to significantly increase the success rate of solicitation.

"Since I can remember, you are the most talented magician I have ever seen," Satrick said, "If you wait for you to enter the second year... I have to say, I am afraid that the entire Holy Light Academy of Magic students It will be much more eclipsed.”

"..."

Kolusta was stunned, for a moment she didn't know how to deal with the flying hat.

"He wants to compliment you and bring hatred to you, temporary carrier." Before Kolusta could figure out why, the system in her mind exploded as if she was very experienced, "Keep rational, Recognize yourself! Even if Sutrick praises you as a flower, you must not believe his nonsense!"

"I know, don't worry."

Kolusta appeased the system, and said coldly: "It's just a few sugar-coated shells with ecstasy hidden in it - after being tricked by Kvitt to take away a whole box of conch shells when he was ten years old. , I will learn from the painful experience and never do this again.”

But the opposite side was also a prince, even though Kolusta had already seen through most of his tricks, he couldn't just block him back without hesitation.

So, she showed a sweet smirk dedicated to business, and she said in a panic-stricken way: "Your Highness is really absurd. Which of the seniors and sisters in the second grade is not better than me? I accept this compliment—— But you still don't want to say these things deliberately to help me relax just because I'm about to go to the exam."

This sentence seems to be polite, but it implies wit, and it is easy to take off the high hat Sutrick put on her, and make it a "frivolous praise" that is light but not easy to be disgusted Label.

Kolusta is a majestic flower of Westside not for nothing. She has been praised since she was a child, and she doesn't even blush at all. Would she still succumb to Sutrick's two harmless compliments? ?

But Satrick, who was standing opposite her, narrowed his eyes slightly at the same time that Kolusta's words fell, and looked at the brown-haired girl with a pure face and a scheming smile. , a little doubt whether the other party is open-minded or old-fashioned.

... Judging from the expression and eyes, it seems to be really humble.

Perhaps it was the prudent words and deeds of a good student that allowed her to maintain her sanity by accident and not swallow this sweet talk?

But Satrick didn't show any disappointment. He curled his lips calmly, stared at Kolusta's innocent eyes intently, and said in his heart: If there is no plan, there is still more to come. Count down.

——The second step of the successor's guide to selecting talents and talents: using both soft and hard tactics, coercion and temptation.

It is necessary to firmly grasp something that is difficult to let go of the other party, and to ask questions precisely, directly hitting the deepest desire buried in the heart of the target that is the most irresistible temptation.

Children from commoner backgrounds are often pure and simple. Generally speaking, as long as their lives are not too bad and life is too miserable, then "family" must be their most vulnerable weakness.

Kolusta's appearance doesn't look like she is being treated badly by her family, so Satrick decided to use "family" as the content of threats, and the empty promise of "everything is for a happy life in the future" is As the carrot hanging in front of the donkey.

After making a decision in his mind, the young prince blinked and said with a smile: "You are right, the exam naturally requires calmness...as long as you have a good attitude, be calm and careful, you can bring a beautiful report card back to see you." family."

"What Your Highness said is very true." The brown-haired girl's eyes moved slightly, but she still maintained her usual attitude, nodding her head in agreement.

"Speaking of which, I seem to remember that Miss Kolusta, you came to the academy from a place called 'Seaside Town'?" Sutrick said by the way, "It's a very remote town, right... ...You live with your father, do you usually have a hard time?"

Kolusta's fingertips trembled, and she looked at him blankly, and said with a little hesitation, "It's not hard."

But he was quite inconsistent in his heart. As early as when the other party mentioned the name of Westside Town, he gave the system a full-screen roar, "What is he trying to do? He wants to threaten my dad and ask me to give it to him." He's working?!"

"...I'm afraid that's the case." The system was also a little displeased, "Hey, a shrewd politician—he really should let him strike himself with a lightning bolt to defeat that vicious person."

"Good idea," Kolusta agreed blankly, "If I can't beat him, I really want to throw him in the lake and drown him."

However, even though his idea of ​​soliciting objects has begun to spread his wings on the verge of crime, Sutrick's routine has not yet been completed.

Seeing Kolusta's dazed expression, he felt a little relieved, and even raised his eyebrows, realizing that the other party was obviously shocked by his detailed information.

"But also as far as I know, you have never been home for so long, have you?—Excuse me, don't you miss your father?"

The slap was already raised high, so naturally the sweet dates should be taken out, Satrick smiled at the surprised brown-haired girl who looked slightly vigilant, and said tolerantly, "It's because my hometown is far away from the royal city. Why? In fact, this is a trivial matter, and you don’t need to take it too seriously... As long as you are willing, I can immediately prepare a residence for you and your father in the royal city, and keep the two satisfied."

Hmm... Forget it, this kind of promise seems too stingy in the eyes of Kolusta, who is no longer what he used to be.

If Sutrick had pointed out these two points so meaningfully before, she would have hesitated a little bit, fearing that Satrick would do something to Sogeta.

But now, the invitation from the Amirim family has been delivered, and there is at least a 50.00% chance that Kolusta will be backed by this golden mountain. Naturally, he doesn't care about the little bit of favor that His Royal Highness shakes from his fingers.

——Besides, even if it is not possible to recognize relatives, there is still Gloria.

Even if Le Kesi, her behind-the-scenes boss, is so mad that she wants to continue to harm the town of Seaside, but before the war starts and the two really confront each other, it is still easy to arrange some people to protect her father from being killed by Satrick. arrived.

Therefore, the second tactic of coercion and temptation has no effect on her.

"Thank you very much for your kindness," Kolusta lifted up her skirt and saluted, and declined in a grateful tone, "But my father and I are family lovers, and once we live in a different place, we will feel uncomfortable... I also plan to return to my hometown after graduation, and if I don't stay in Wangcheng, it seems that I can only regretfully miss His Highness's kind wishes."

Sutrick: "..."

Even refused the free real estate?

This hard bone is a bit too hard to chew, right?

The suspicion in his eyes became stronger, but it was still difficult to find clues from Kolusta's sincere attitude.

...Could it be that I was really thinking too much, this girl just happened to not fall into his routine because of her own noble qualities - modesty and simplicity?

After all, she looks so silly and sweet, she doesn't look like the kind of scheming person at all.

Sutrick, who was confused by the appearance, struggled for a while, but decided to put down his guard for the time being and continue with his third strategy.

——The third step of the successor's guide to selecting talents and talents: exchange sincerity with sincerity.A qualified leader must know the truth of giving and receiving, learn to make full use of the resources and opportunities at hand, and show kindness to his subordinates in exchange for their gratitude and loyalty.

"Well, if this is your wish, of course I respect it," Sutrick also put on a regretful expression, and sighed, "But I still insist that you are really a person with great potential, Ke Lu Miss Star—if you want to return to your hometown after graduation, it will be a great loss for the kingdom."

"..." Kolusta, "???"

Good guy, you are a little expert in wearing a high hat, I am a bit afraid to answer these words.

She kept silent cautiously, staring closely at Sutrick's expression and movements, and saw that the other party suddenly raised his arm, covering his heart with the right hand with the white glove.

... A sense of foreboding suddenly surged in Kolusta's heart.

Sure enough, in the next second, Satrick, who was saluting, handed his left hand hanging by his side to Kolusta, sighed softly, and said gently:

"Since you are unwilling to accept either spiritual praise or material gift, then I can only indirectly express my appreciation for you..."

Kolusta's expression was slightly stiff, as if he had realized something, his toes touched the ground and backed away a little, his head was full of the green word "grass".

And the next sentence of the blond prince was exactly as she expected.

"Miss Kolusta, I would like to invite you to participate in this year's royal ball - I wonder if it is an honor to be honored by you?"

The author has something to say: I've been very busy recently, and I probably only glanced at the comments. I'm so sorry, and bow down to everyone.

In this article, my idea is to carefully portray the role of Kolusta, so that the interaction between her and the supporting characters will increase, to ambush or pave the way, so as to lead to the next plot in a logical way; and Similarly, if you want to tell the plot as complete as possible, you will inevitably sacrifice some emotional drama. Just like the current confession plot, it is very important for the heroine, but it is for Xiaoge. A largely unrelated matter, so naturally she would not be required.

I know the babes want to see them send candy, but I still plan to finish the QAQ of this already set plot... If you don’t like to watch this plot, you can temporarily nourish and fatten it, and wait until about five chapters later Xiaoge will appear on the stage Reorder, thank you very much for your understanding, thank you!
