Throne of the North

"Ryan?"

Ryan didn't need to move. Someone with vision would naturally come to him, but Ryan didn't expect that he would meet an acquaintance.

"You are... Jovan."

Ryan was a little surprised. Jovan Dean was a scion of Viscount Dean's family in the empire. He was neither the eldest son nor the second son. Of course, he was not qualified to obtain any rights. It could be said that he had a similar status to Ryan back then.

Eating and waiting to die, living a peaceful life with the wealth given to him by his family.

The two were considered friends, but in the past, it could be said that every heir of a noble family like them was friends with each other.

So, it's not close.

Jovan looked at Ryan in shock, who was dressed gorgeously and had a guard by his side.

Of course he knew what Ryan was doing. He went to the poorest and most miserable place in the North to become a baron. In the past, people in the circle often made fun of Ryan.

But Jovan knew that the reason why those people would never forget Ryan who left was because they were envious.

Baron, nobles of the empire, no matter what, Ryan's future is different from theirs.

They laugh simply because they think this is the only way to make themselves superior.

"Look, Ryan, who is just like us, went to the poorest and coldest border of the empire and became a baron. It's so miserable."

How much he disdains Ryan on the surface, but how unwilling and envious he is on the inside.

But now, when Jovan looked at Ryan's appearance, there was no hint that he would be transformed into a embarrassed barbarian by the wind and snow in the north. He knew that those people were not qualified to even express superficial jokes and disdain.

Jovan has grown up. He is one or two years older than Ryan, so he knows that there is a huge difference between his identity and Ryan's.

Nobles... Once the Lordship system is implemented, the status of the fifth-class nobles will be even higher. At that time, they will not even be qualified to see Ryan.

Thinking of this, Jovan felt a little bitter and reserved. In the Dean family, he was not favored because of his poor talent. The wealth distributed by the family could only allow him to maintain a normal life. If he wanted to live a better life, he would just Can work hard...

The Dean family is not considered rich, and because it has been passed down for too many years, many of its rights cannot be inherited by even the children of today's viscount.

If they could, then couldn't their grandfather's children, their father's brothers? What about their grandfather's brother?

Aren't they all sons of more ancient nobles?

"Lian... Baron, do you want to enter the magic academy?"

Jovan smiled, as if he had forgotten his previous relationship with Ryan.

"Jovan, you don't have to do this."

Ryan sighed and then spoke.

"Do you know which mages in the magic academy are good at training mounts? Especially when it comes to war horses."

Listening to Ryan's inquiry, Jovan was a little confused and did not dare to make bold guesses. He could only pretend to be cheerful and speak truthfully.

"Ryan, there are no magicians in the Magic Academy who are good at what you mentioned. There is, and there is only one."

Jovan raised his hand and pointed at a tall tower. Ryan looked over and saw that the tall tower was completely dark red and was incompatible with the architecture of the Magic Academy.

"Arch Mage McCann has refused the royal family's invitation three times. He was unwilling to go to the Highland Mage Tower, so he became the only mage in the Magic Academy who is good at Beast Life Potion."

"but……"

Jovan looked at Ryan with some embarrassment.

"Ryan, you should understand that if many mages cannot stay in the mages academy and rely on the archmage after graduation, then it is best to become a vassal of a noble and worship them."

"And the nobles all want to get the life potion that the war horses take. If you can learn something from Archmage McCann, the magician will be very popular among the nobles after graduation."

"Even before they graduate, nobles will come to their door."

"So, if you want to see Archmage McCann, it will be difficult even for apprentices within the Magic Academy. If you want to see him..."

Not every magician will do it for powerful power and spells. There are many magicians from poor backgrounds in the magic academy. They are very precocious, so they understand that their talents are not high, so pursuing benefits becomes the only option left.

Of course the nobles want to own expensive war horses on their own, so the mage apprentices or assistants in the magic academies are of course willing to learn in this area.

But obviously, Archmage McCann, who would refuse invitations from the royal family and other great nobles, is not a person who only cares about money.

"Is there any way you can get Archmage McCann to see me?"

Ryan asked, but took a step back after hesitating.

"Just let him know that I want to see him. Not to mention that he was bred for war horses."

Jovan also hesitated. He was just an intermediary. In addition to the owners of dozens of towers, there were many magicians in the magic academy that he was not qualified to see. Ryan's requirements were a bit too high for him.

"One hundred gold coins, regardless of success or failure, if you can let me see the great mage, I will give you another two hundred gold coins."

This price is undoubtedly high, but who knows that there is only one person in the Magic Academy who can meet Ryan's requirements.

"Ryan, how about... I will help you contact an assistant of Archmage McCann, who is a magician."

Jovan said still hesitantly.

"Can that magician meet my requirements?"

Jovan stopped talking. The reason why he was sure that the answer Ryan wanted could only be obtained from the great wizard McKen was because the great wizard had a strange personality. The other people in the wizard tower were just tools, and no one became the great wizard's disciple.

So, he couldn't be sure.

"I..."

The gap between him and the great wizard was still too big, but looking at the other party's appearance, Ryan still understood the difficulty here.

"Forget it, one hundred gold coins, you help me contact the wizard, and I will talk to him."

"Really?"

Jovan's eyes suddenly widened, and then he left happily and ran towards the gate of the magic academy.

It seems that these intermediaries are also recognized by the magic academy.

Soon, Ryan saw a woman with fluffy hair, as if she had just woken up.

But Ryan was more inclined to believe that this woman had not slept for many days, and the eyes between the dark circles did not have much spirit.

"Sister Yelena, this is Baron Ryan, a... powerful nobleman, who has the blood of the Earl of Clayton family."

Jovan said the best things about Ryan as much as possible, although he didn't think Ryan could do anything in a place like the frozen land.
