Proof of the Sun King

Dinner is very simple, simple ham, steak, delicious fish, vegetable salad, butter bread with ordinary apple cider, the waiter lights the candle in the room, simple and a large wooden table with a hole is filled with For food, Ryan and Teresa were sitting on one side, Aurora was sitting on the other side, and Ryan also noticed that Teresa's official apprentice, Emma, ​​was standing behind Aurora, like a maid.

No, it's not like, it's just that, the witch apprentices of the Garland Council all started from the tutor's handymen and servants. The reality is not a fairy tale, it's not that the girls with magical talent received an offer from Sky Vault Castle With the notice, you can enter any platform nine and three-quarters and enjoy your college life, no.

After the apprentices entered the council, they all started as handymen and servants. Many apprentices grew up from young to old, and would be handymen and servants all their lives. At most, they learned some zero-level tricks and small spells of one or two levels.

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

A large number of witch apprentices can truly gain a certain degree of freedom only when they are promoted to the elite level and become official witches. At the same time, they must start accepting apprentices and accept tasks from the council or other nobles, and earn living expenses and research funds for themselves. , Every wizard is a big money-burner. Some people have calculated that if a wizard wants to be promoted to the legendary rank or even to see if he has a chance to touch the threshold of the sanctuary rank, the gold kroner consumed is seven or eight thousand, which is usually spent. More than 10,000 yuan, and even spending 40,000 to 50,000 yuan is not surprising.

For example, why was Veronica able to enter the country very quickly within more than ten years of coming to Ryan?

Ryan was willing to pay, he spent a lot of money to help Veronica build the wizard's tower, and all the needs were all provided.

He put down his face and asked the High Elf High Mage to teach Veronica the magic, and also managed to get a lot of magic books for her to study.

At the same time, he also continuously injected a large amount of his own psychic 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 any particular way, you know.

Therefore, raising a wizard is indeed a very expensive behavior, very expensive.

In the same way, the rewards brought by successfully cultivating a wizard are also very amazing. What a powerful wizard can do, this has been said before, and it will not be repeated here.

All in all, Ryan, this stinky boy is really powerful. When he was a baron, he could afford the huge expenses of Veronica. Later, when he became an earl, he was able to support two wizards in one breath. Looking at Ryan Dining with Teresa, Aurora's thoughts went back and forth. No matter how she had opinions in her heart, she didn't dare to say that she was dissatisfied with Ryan's son-in-law. In fact, if it wasn't for the relationship between Theresa and Ryan , the imperial royal chief wizard Gelt and the speaker Margarita have already started.

"Mother, what's the matter, you only ate so much." Teresa took the buttered bread from Ryan's hand and pushed the scooped broth to Ryan. The sorceress was about to enjoy the family of three. Feeling warm, but found that Aurora would not eat after eating a little.

"No appetite." Aurora reluctantly took a few more bites, she squeezed out a smile and shook her head: "You guys eat."

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

Aurora did not speak.

Ryan smiled inwardly. Anything without appetite is an excuse. The real reason is that Aurora has been pampered for decades and has become accustomed to a luxurious and refined life. This is a small village in the Principality of Bastogne, even if the villagers have taken Dedicate the best food to their group, which is still unacceptable to Aurora.

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

This is not a common problem with the witches of Garland. The supreme mages and the deans of the academy in the empire can each have their own private kitchen and special food, depending on whether they need it or not, Morgiana, the witch of the lake god. Not to mention, spellcasters are always privileged.

On this trip, Ryan deliberately did not let Aurora bring her private kitchen. When he returned, the special meals for the Sanctuary Witch had already been eaten.

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

Outside the house, it was snowing heavily, and the ancient lands and villages of the Duchy of Bastogne once again ushered in heavy snow. The white snow covered the distance as far as the eye could see, dyeing the fields and forests of Bastogne. A piece of white land, in the dark night, except for the torches outside the house and the army patrolling with torches above the village, 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 Musillon didn't say a word, he seemed to be thinking about something.

Teresa stood up, she walked to Ryan and closed the window: "Lane, it's so windy outside, why are you standing in front of the window."

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

"Don't think about it at the window." Teresa took Ryan to sit down in front of the fire in the middle of the house, and the sorceress whispered, "Just right, mother wants to tell you something."

"What's the matter?" Ryan turned his attention to Aurora.

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

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

"Then, can you do me a favor? I also have a lot of official witches and even female congressmen who are unmarried." Aurora said calmly: "Can we... have a party? A bachelor party?"

"Uh..." Ryan had a strange expression on his face after hearing this. After listening, he shook his head again and again: "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 the past. When he was still a ranger knight in Nord, one of his colleagues once pursued the official witch. The official witch saw that Ryan's colleague was a kingdom knight. He also promised to get along first.

The first exchange was not bad. The two sides talked very happily and felt that they could make further contact.

Then the nightmare of the kingdom knight began.

The witch has high expectations for love. She requires both parties to exchange at least one love letter every day. Once the kingdom knight went out to fight and had no time to write a love letter, but she was slapped in the face. The witch asked the knight to make amends with a bouquet of flowers.

Only three months of the year are warm in Nord, and the remaining nine months are cold and freezing. Where can I find flowers?

The witch saw that there were no flowers, and the whole process was black. In the end, the knight had to sneak into the magic-blessed flowerbed in the palace, and risked execution to secretly pick a few roses, and she was satisfied.

Afterwards, a famous imperial theatre troupe came to Nord to perform, and the ticket cost ten gold kronor. The witch said to watch it. The knight reluctantly paid for it after thinking about it for a long time. As a result, because the money was not decisive enough, the witch directly He ignored him for five or six days. On the day of the play, the knight personally rode a horse and brought his squire to her residence and pleaded for nearly two hours before letting her go downstairs. By this time, the play was already halfway through.

After watching the play, it was already very late, and it was snowing heavily. The witch named Sally must have required the knight to be chivalrous and must send her home. The knight had to take her home in the heavy snow. He didn't wear any clothes. The cloak was covered with snow.

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

"This is... a bit too much, right?" Aurora and Teresa frowned when they heard the words, especially Teresa said directly: "Didn't she visit your colleagues?"

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

As he spoke, Ryan's expression began to change more subtly: "You know what? The expression on this lady's face when she visited, she was moved by herself. When she condoled, the words were full of loved ones. Happiness, I can see that by constantly tossing this colleague of mine, she feels very satisfied."

"But my colleague is not an idiot. After this incident, he made an excuse that it might not be suitable, offered to cut off the relationship, and then dear Ms. Sally became furious, and went around preaching 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 and still alone."

"After going through that incident, I didn't have any good feelings for you witches of Garland at the time." Ryan nodded with a smile: "I thought at the time, I wouldn't find you witches if I asked anyone."

"That's not right." Aurora immediately captured the core of the whole problem: "Then why did you choose to become a partner with Veronica? Are you not contradicting yourself? What about your chivalry?"

Ryan shook his head with a wry smile: "People always can't escape the law of true fragrance, but please listen to me patiently first."

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

"Consumption tends to focus on biology, I don't need her to do anything for me, white skin, beautiful long legs, high-heeled glasses girl with stockings, this is my biological preference, in this case I don't have much requirements for women. Gao, as long as you are 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 Ryan's words, Aurora, who was wearing a pair of gold glasses, immediately turned red, and Teresa thought of her own clothing preferences, and she also blushed and nodded to indicate that she knew: "So Victoria Does Ronica satisfy your spending propensity?"

"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, the biological Learning is not so important, but what I want to emphasize is that in this case, I will neither be a licking dog nor provide care and accommodation, and I will not spend real money for no reason, both of us. It is an independent individual, there is no clear division of labor, and both parties are equal."

"The witches of Garland can neither satisfy my consumption tendency, because the witches like to be independent and have their own careers and magic to study, and at the same time they cannot satisfy my tendency to help, because the witches of Garland like to be coaxed all the way. After all, they are noble spellcasters, not ordinary people."

"Only Veronica is different, she is... different." Ryan finally made a conclusion: "Besides her, Suria is also unique, a good match that can satisfy both my needs at the same time, So when Francois offered to get engaged, I didn't even think about it and immediately agreed, but now it seems like Olica and Emilia have become like this, God knows what happened."

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

"That's not it." Ryan looked at the flames splashing in the fire, he smiled and shook his head: "When I knew that my partner was you, I refused at first, but I found out later that although you have some princess temper, but generally It's barely okay, not to the point where you can't get along, but it's okay to communicate, in fact, if you didn't come to my territory and take the initiative to find me, we would be ordinary friends for life."

"Your Excellency Ryan is so proud. Do you know how determined Teresa is to come here to find you?" Aurora said angrily, "Do you really think you are so amazing?"

"How amazing am I? Ms. Aurora ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ You can go to the old world and ask anyone at random, how amazing am I?" Ryan sneered and looked at his mother-in-law: "Why, I will allow you to Witch Lan is picky and doesn't allow me to have my own conditions?"

"..." Aurora was speechless for a while.

"Mother!" Teresa always felt very embarrassed. Why does Aurora and Ryan always have the smell of gunpowder?

"Ms. Aurora, I want to say that the marriage and love market is essentially a competition between men and men for women, and women and women for men." Ryan stood up: "It's not a competition between men and women."

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

"The reputation of the Garland witches in my domain is not very good." Ryan shook his head: "I admit that a large part of the reason is that some men are constantly frustrated trying to pursue these witches and witch apprentices, so they vent their anger everywhere, secretly There are rumors that are unfavorable to you, and I wish to demonize you so that your reputation will be damaged, so that their hearts will be balanced, I will send someone to rectify this, but also, many small nobles and old guards are arguing with you. Dissatisfaction and complaints from Witch Lan's extremely poor experience in getting along are also one of the reasons."

"I will strengthen management." Teresa said seriously.

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

"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 set up my own intelligence department?"
