Arcane Lord

After a while, no matter whether they were middle-level or low-level mages, basically all the mages arrived. For this reason, some people put down the repair work at hand, and some stopped their ongoing private experiments.

Even the two mages who were on duty in Savile Town came back.

The mages of the Tower of Time have never gathered together like today. Some of them are relatively indifferent and only use spells to talk to people they know well, while some of the sociable ones are constantly wandering around in various small circles, asking about this time. The real reason for the meeting.

But most of them still cautiously keep a certain distance from others and observe silently, neither getting close nor appearing unfamiliar. This is the normal state of mages.

Chateau is one of them.

Although he is already known by most people, it is precisely because of this and his special status that he cannot show too obvious tendencies.

I just said hello to a few familiar mages and found a corner to stay.

On the other hand, Kaili, a new mage who was almost at the same time as Sha Duo and Ganal, did not follow his mentor. Instead, he got close to Sha Duo, which made Sha Duo feel a little uncomfortable.

"Xia Duo, do you know any inside information? Can you tell me about it?"

Do we know each other well? Xia Duo rolled his eyes at him, and they were somewhat unhappy when they first met. Later, Xia Duo became the winner of the arcane competition, and Kaili's attitude became very enthusiastic again.

However, Xia Duo doesn't like people whose attitudes change so quickly and so drastically.

I casually said, "I don't know" and ignored him.

…

Soon, Aibo hurried over and came directly to the main seat, "Everyone, I have called everyone here just for two things. First, Lord Niyatta was invited by Her Royal Highness the Princess and needs to stay in Severton. Study for a while, and the second thing is related to that.”

Having said this, Aibo suddenly looked at Sha Duo and continued, "During this period, Master Niya Tower entrusted Sha Duo to be the acting tower master of the Tower of Time."

As soon as these words came out, there were almost unanimous discussions in the conference room No. 1, and Xia Duo was even more surprised. Although he has become Niya's husband, is it really okay to leave this kind of thing to him like this?

Before Xia Duo could say anything, he already felt all kinds of scrutinizing eyes focused on him, especially around him. Kaili's fiery gaze almost melted him.

Just now he said he didn't know, and now he is about to become the acting tower master. Xia Duo feels that Kaili's mentality is about to explode at this moment, but Kaili is not the problem, the other mid-level mages are——

"Lord Aibo, are you sure that Master Niyata made this decision under normal circumstances?" Someone questioned on the spot.

Sha Duo knew him, an intermediate mage named Sandur, and it wasn't just him, many people had doubts in their eyes, but they just didn't speak out.

"Are you questioning me? Or are you questioning Lord Niyata?" Aiboike immediately asked.

He was very happy to see Niya stay in Severton, but he did not want to see the chaos caused by the Tower of Time.

And it’s not just the Tower of Time, but also the territory. If you want to maintain the stability of the two, the most suitable agent at present is Xia Duo.

No one else, whether it was him or several of Epps' apprentices, was suitable!

Therefore, this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible. There are still many things to do later!

Aiboke's strong rhetorical question caused Sandur to fall into silence. He hesitated for a few times, but finally said nothing more, and no one questioned him again.

Then, Aiboke said: "Xia Duo, come here!"

Under the gaze of many mages, Xia Duo came to the main seat of the conference room. Everyone else had no problem, so why should he, the client, raise any doubts!

Aibok took out the scepter that Niya asked him to bring back from the dimensional bag and handed it to Sha Duo, "I hope you can live up to Niya's trust."

Really trust? Xia Duo didn't feel much, but what else could he say? He took the scepter and solemnly promised, "I will!"

"Everyone, I brought back some materials from Severton and have put them in the supplies department. Those who have relevant tasks can check and collect them. The repair work of the Tower of Time cannot be stopped!"

After saying that, Aibo dismissed everyone, and in the end only he and Sha Duo were left in the conference room.

"What on earth is going on? Is Niya really invited by Her Royal Highness the Princess to stay in Severton?" There was no one else around, and Sha Duo finally asked his question.

Even if you have to stay there to study for a while, you can come back first. Such a rush is obviously not a normal decision.

"This matter is more complicated and involves a game between many great arcanists. In short, there will be nothing bad for Niya staying in Severton. It's just that you need to treat the territory and the Tower of Time carefully. What's wrong? If you don’t understand, you can contact me at any time.”

Aiboke gave a serious warning, and finally said, "The first thing you have to do now is to take this scepter to Niya's study, and then go to the town office. I have discussed this matter with Sai. The mayor said so."

"Do you still have territory?" Xia Duo looked down at the scepter in his hand, feeling that the acting tower master might not be as easy as he first thought.

Just as he was about to leave for Niya's study, Xia Duo suddenly stopped, "By the way, have the people from the Eagle Chamber of Commerce left?"

One of the things Niya said before she left was to be careful when dealing with people from the Eagle Chamber of Commerce, because when it came to Ava, who had become his follower, Shado was more concerned.

"I just came back from Severton, and I haven't had time to know this yet, but when Niya asked me to bring back the Savile Scepter, she mentioned that the Eagle Chamber of Commerce, and even the Hawk Territory behind it, would be destroyed in a short period of time. Will not become our enemy!"

When he said this, Aibo was also a little confused. He knew very well what the Eagle Chamber of Commerce had done. Although Axel had been killed, the long-standing negative view was not so easy to dissipate. of.

It’s just that he doesn’t know what exactly Her Highness the Princess said to Niya to make Niya say that, or was it just a unilateral instruction from Her Highness the Princess?

"I understand." Xia Duo nodded blankly and left Conference Room 1.

On the way to the elevator, Xia Duo met several official mages one after another, but their attitudes were much more distant than before. He didn't think about it in detail, just thinking that they were jealous of him becoming an acting mage.

This kind of thing is inevitable. After the Midsummer Festival celebration, Shado has accepted this reality. Fortunately, most people are sensible after all.

Of course, the most rational person is Kaili. His attitude changes again and again. No, now he is waiting at the elevator again——

"Xia Duo, Master of Xia Duo Pagoda, we are finally waiting for you!"
