Warhammer Throne

The dinner is very simple, simple ham, steak, delicious fish, vegetable salad, butter bread with ordinary cider, the waiter lights a candle in the room, simple and there is a hole on the wooden table full of Food, Ryan and Teresa sat on one side, Aurora on the other side, Ryan also noticed that Emma, ​​Teresa's formal apprentice, was standing behind Aurora, like a maid.

No, it’s not like, but it’s that the witch apprentices of the Garland Council all started from the mentor’s handyman and servants. The reality is not a fairy tale, it’s not that the girls with magical talent received an offer from the Sky Castle You can enter the nine and three-quarters platform with the notice, and enjoy your college life, no.

After entering the council, the apprentices started from handyman and servant. Many apprentices from young to old age, and will be handyman and servant throughout their lives, learning at most some zero-level tricks and one or two rounds of tricks.

After a considerable number of apprentices have been eliminated, the remaining apprentices will have the opportunity to receive magic education and teaching. This time is not an easy life. While receiving education, they have to be assistants to the tutor. This has already been done before. Having said that, I won't repeat it here.

The huge number of apprentices of witches can truly gain a certain degree of freedom only if they are promoted to the elite level and become official witches. At the same time, they must start accepting apprentices and accept tasks assigned by parliament or other nobles, and earn living expenses and research funds for themselves. Every wizard is a big money-burning player. Someone has calculated that if a wizard wants to be promoted to the legendary rank or even see if he has the chance to reach the threshold of the sanctuary rank, he will consume seven or eight thousand gold crowns, which usually costs It's not surprising that it costs more than 10,000, or even 40,000 to 50,000.

For example, why can Veronica make such a rapid progress within more than ten years of coming to Ryan?

Ryan was willing to pay the capital, he spent a lot of money to help Veronica build the wizard tower, all the needs are fully met.

He put down his face and asked the High Elf Supreme Master to teach Veronica the magic, and at the same time managed to get a lot of magic books for her to study.

At the same time, he continued to inject a large amount of his own psionic energy into Veronica's body in a special way to help her practice. With the help of Ryan's psychic energy, Veronica would be difficult to be affected by the wind of magic. Corrupted and negatively affected.

As for the special way, you know.

Therefore, raising a wizard is indeed a very money-burning behavior.

Similarly, the rewards of successfully cultivating a wizard are amazing. What a powerful wizard can do is already mentioned in the previous article, and I will not repeat it here.

All in all, Ryan, this stinky boy, is really powerful. When he was a baron, he could afford Veronica's huge expenses. After becoming an earl, he was able to raise two wizards in one go. Looking at Ryan Having dinner with Teresa, Aurora’s thoughts went round and round, no matter how she had opinions in her heart, she did not dare to say that she was dissatisfied with the son-in-law of Ryan. In fact, if it were not for the relationship between Teresa and Ryan, , The imperial royal chief wizard Gelter and speaker Margarita had already started.

"Mother, what's the matter, you only ate a little bit." Teresa took the buttered bread from Ryan's hands and pushed the scooped broth to Ryan. The sorcerer was about to enjoy the family of three. A sense of warmth, but found that Aurora stopped eating after eating a little.

"No appetite." Aurora reluctantly took a few more mouthfuls. She squeezed out a smile and shook her head: "You can eat."

Ryan frowned slightly when he saw Aurora. Before he could speak, Teresa immediately grabbed the subject: "Mother, are you not used to the food here?"

Aurora did not speak.

Ryan laughed inwardly. Any lack of appetite was an excuse. The real reason was that Aurora had been pampered for decades and had become accustomed to luxury and exquisite life. This was a small village in the Duchy of Bastogne, even if the villagers had already taken it. Give the best food to them, these foods are still unacceptable to Aurora.

What the Garland Witches like most is the luxurious enjoyment of life. This is the same for everyone. The difference is that Veronica’s early life was difficult, so she can accept both good and bad. Teresa was educated by Ryan several times. She is willing to endure temporarily when she has no choice, but Aurora cannot accept it. She has been here for decades, eating the most exquisite food and living in the best environment.

This is not a common problem among the Garland witches. Each of the Supreme Masters of the Empire and the deans of the academy can have their own private kitchen and special food, depending on whether they need it or not, Lake God Witch Mojianna Not to mention, the caster is always privileged.

Ryan deliberately didn't let Aurora take her private kitchen during this trip. When returning home, the special food provided by the Sanctuary Witch had already been eaten.

After the meal, the attendants came in to clean and evacuated the table.

Outside the house, the snow was heavy, and the ancient land and villages of the Duchy of Bastogne once again ushered in heavy snow with goose feathers. The white snow covered the distance as far as you could see, and dyed the fields and forests of Bastogne. A piece of white ground, in the dark, except for the torch outside the house and the army patrolling the village with the torch, the night sky and the forest in the distance are all black.

Ryan stood alone in front of the window, looking at the snowy scenery in the distance. His figure was like a straight pine tree. Duke Moussilon didn't say a word, he seemed to be thinking about something.

Teresa stood up, she walked to Ryan and closed the window: "Ryan, there is so much snow outside, why are you standing in front of the window."

"I'm thinking about something." Ryan shrugged.

"Don't think outside the window if you think about it." Teresa took Ryan and sat down in front of the fire in the middle of the big house. The sorcerer whispered, "It just so happens that my mother has something to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Ryan cast his gaze to Aurora.

"That's it." Aurora's beautiful legs of black silk swayed in front of Ryan: "Ryan, many nobles and knights in your territory are unmarried, right?"

"Well, that's right." Ryan nodded.

"Then, can you help me? I have many formal witches and even congresswomen who are unmarried." Aurora said quietly, "Can we... have a party? A bachelor party?"

"Um..." Ryan had a strange expression on his face after listening. After listening, he shook his head repeatedly: "Ms. Aurora, do you know Sally?"

"I know, what's the matter?" Aurora's mature and beautiful face was slightly surprised: "An official witch in the council, Sally Kohler, what's wrong?"

Ryan smiled and talked about a past. When he was a ranger knight in Nord, one of his colleagues once pursued this official witch. This official witch thought Ryan’s colleague was a kingdom knight. Also promised to get along first.

The communication on the first side was pretty good, and the two sides had a very happy conversation, and both felt that they could get in touch with each other further.

Then the nightmare of that kingdom knight began.

The witch has high expectations for love. She requires the two sides to exchange at least one love letter every day. Once a kingdom knight went out to fight and was too busy to write a love letter, she was thrown a black face. The witch asked the knight to use a bouquet of flowers to make amends.

Nord is only warm for three months each year, and the remaining nine months are cold and cold. Where can I find flowers?

Seeing that there were no flowers, the witch had a black face. In the end, the knight had to sneak into the flower garden with magic blessings in the palace, and secretly picked a few roses at the risk of being executed, and she was satisfied.

After that, a famous imperial theater company came to Nord to perform. Tickets cost ten gold crowns. The witch said that he wanted to see it. The knight reluctantly paid for it after thinking about it for a long time. But because the money was not decisive enough, the witch directly I ignored him for five or six days. On the day of the play, the knight himself rode a horse and led his followers to her residence and begged her to come downstairs for nearly two hours. By this time, the play was halfway through.

After watching the drama, it was getting late, and heavy snow began to rise in the sky. The witch named Sally must also require the knight to be a knight and must send her home. The knight had to brave the heavy snow to send her home, but he did not wear it. The cloak was covered with snow.

The next day, the knight fell ill as he wished and was admitted to the Lady Mercy Nursing Home.

"This is... a bit too much, right?" Aurora and Teresa frowned when they heard this, especially Teresa directly said: "Did she not go to see your colleague?"

"Yes, she went to see it." Ryan smiled and nodded again and again: "She went to the Saria Nursing Home and sat in front of my colleague's bed for two minutes, and asked warmly. I was there at the time."

While talking, Ryan's expression began to change more subtle: "Do you know? The expression of this Ms. Sally when she visited, she was moved by herself. When she was condoning, the lines were filled with loved ones. Happiness, I can see that this colleague who keeps tossing me makes her feel very satisfied."

"But my colleague is not an idiot. After this incident, he found an excuse that it might not be appropriate, and offered to interrupt the relationship, and then my dear Ms. Sally became furious and proclaimed that my colleague was a scumbag, among men. Scum."

Aurora:"…………"

Teresa: "..."

After a pause, Aurora held her forehead weakly: "No wonder Sally is almost forty years old or alone."

"After experiencing that, I didn't have any good feelings for you Garland witches at the time." Ryan smiled and nodded: "I thought at the time that I would not find you witches."

"No." Aurora immediately caught the core of the whole problem: "Then why did you choose to become a partner with Veronica? You are not contradicting yourself? What about your chivalry?"

Ryan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "People always can't escape the law of true fragrance, but please be patient and listen to me first."

"As a man, I have only two tendencies to choose a spouse. The first is the propensity to consume, and the second is the propensity to help."

"Consumption tends to pay attention to biology. I don’t need her to help me do anything. White, beautiful, long legs, stockings and high-heeled spectacles, this is my biological preference. High, as long as I am obedient and resolve my physical and psychological needs, I will give each other care and accommodation, as well as care and a certain degree of tolerance."

Hearing what Ryan said, Aurora, who was wearing a pair of gold-wire glasses, immediately turned red, while Teresa thought of her clothes preferences, she also blushed and nodded to express that she knew: "So Wei Ronika satisfies your propensity to consume?"

"The second is the helper tendency." Ryan ignored Teresa's question: "The helper tendency is also very simple. I need the other party to be able to help me in adventure, war, and internal affairs. In this case, biological Learning is not so important, but I want to emphasize that in this case, I will neither be a licking dog nor provide care and accommodation, nor will I take out real money for no reason. Both of us are It is an independent individual without a clear division of labor, and both parties are equal."

"The Garland witches can neither satisfy my propensity to consume, because the witches like to be independent, have their own careers and magic to study, but also cannot satisfy my tendency to help, because the Garland witch likes to be slapped with money, kneeling, licking and coaxing all the way. So, after all, they are noble spellcasters, not ordinary people."

"Only Veronica is different, she is...different." Ryan made a final conclusion: "Apart from her, Su Liya is also unique, a good match that can meet my two needs at the same time. So when François proposed the engagement, I immediately agreed without thinking about it, but now it seems that Olica and Emilia have become this way, and God knows what happened."

"Then...what about me?" Teresa asked unwillingly: "Am I so unbearable?"

"That's not true." Ryan looked at the flames splashing in the fire, and he smiled and shook his head: "When I knew my partner was you, I refused at first, but later I discovered that although you have a princess temper, you are generally Reluctantly, it’s not to the point where you can’t get along with each other, but if you want to associate, it’s fine. In fact, if you didn’t come to my territory and take the initiative to find me, we would be ordinary friends all our lives."

"Your Excellency Ryan is really a big face, do you know how determined Teresa is willing to come here to find you?" Aurora said irritably, "Do you really think how great you are?"

"How amazing am I? Ms. Aurora, you can go to the old world and ask someone to ask, how amazing I am?" Ryan sneered at his mother-in-law: "Why, you are allowed to picky Garland Witch, not allowed I have my own conditions?"

"..." Aurora was speechless.

"Mother!" Teresa always feels embarrassed. Why is the gunpowder between Aurora and Ryan so smelly?

"Ms. Aurora, I want to say that in the marriage and love market, men compete with men for women, and women compete with women for men." Ryan stood up: "Not men compete with women."

"So you promised to have a bachelor party?" Aurora said impatiently, and she was a little confused when Ryan said so.

"The reputation of the Garland witches in my territory is not very good." Ryan shook his head: "I admit that a large part of the reason is that some men try to pursue these witches and witch apprentices and are constantly frustrated, so they vent their hostility everywhere, secretly. There are rumors that are unfavorable to you, hoping to demonize you so that your reputation will be damaged, so that their hearts will be balanced. I will send someone to rectify this point, but also, many little nobles and old guards are talking to you. The dissatisfaction and complaints caused by the extremely poor experience of Lan Witch’s getting along are also one of the reasons."

"I will strengthen management." Teresa said seriously.

"Very well, understand long live, when the time is right, I will arrange it." Ryan lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "Yes, Teresa, and Ms. Aurora, I have a request, you can help me NS?"

"What request? If my mother and I can do it, we will definitely help you." Teresa also said seriously.

"You guys, can you help me form my own intelligence department?"
