There was a chattering sound.
"Eh? Has Professor Mei accepted students again?"
"What student, that should be Teacher Limuru, the fairy tale lord?"
"Oh?!! But he is so small! He looks so cute——"
Snapped!
A cross popped out of Limulu's head, and he looked at Lidelle who was trying to suppress her smile with a black face, and said, "You did it on purpose, right?!"
"How is it possible?" Lidal shook her head quickly, denying, but the smile on her face obviously betrayed her thoughts.
Hmph, Limulu glanced at the parking lot. It's not so much a parking lot as it is an open space. Although the entire Clock Tower is in front of the British Museum, where the basic subjects are located, there are densely packed cars, but those who can drive in are the professors. There are less than five cars above the first name...
Most professors are not against taking a car, but driving is really rare! !
"Teacher." A girl with short blond hair and a curly body about the height of Limuru came over, and eagerly took some of the magic materials that Lidel took down: "For today's class, please invite Lecturer Asta It's over."
"Yeah." Lidal nodded to indicate that she knew. As a monarch, all the lecturers and professors under her command can be temporarily arranged by her, similar to the teaching director, but she usually seldom cares about such things. This time it was purely because of the afternoon The meeting just took up the time of her original class.
The monarch doesn't force lectures, but Lidal obviously belongs to the kind of existence that takes care of the students.
"Hmm..." The blond short-haired girl didn't ignore Limuru's existence. She hesitated for a moment, and then quickly said, "Limulu... Hello, teacher."
After saying hello, she hurried back holding the materials——Limuru searched her memory for a moment, and quickly remembered the identity of the other party, one of Lidale's nominal students, a little girl with a part of witch blood Guy Lina Lilico.
"What?" Lidal took two steps, and suddenly realized that Limuru was still looking at the back of her students, and suddenly smiled lightly: "Speaking of which, you should also accept students, right?"
"Huh?" Limuru was a little confused, he always felt that Lidelle's thoughts were jumping a bit, why did she always think of it as if it came out? !
Seeing Limulu's surprise, Lidal turned around and realized that she was indeed a little anxious... The main reason is that professors basically have students, and it is traditional to have a few students with them, just like a professor with graduate students That way, and she finally saw Limulu come out of her autism, unconsciously she was a little too eager.
"How about I introduce a student to you?" But since she said it, she went on and said: "I have already brought four students, and I really don't want to take any more."
"Don't do it." Limulu said without thinking: "Your student is almost taller than me, don't even think about it!"
The Clock Tower is similar to an advanced university. Although gifted students are allowed to come here to study, due to the fact that most of the magic world itself is a family model, students either come here to study like graduate students, or they are ordinary people. Students come here to study on their own.
But no matter what kind, the education in childhood or even adolescence is generally the same as that of normal people. At most, the magic family is more keen on the inheritance of magic.
So it is really difficult to find a student who is younger than Limulu's current thirteen or fourteen years old.
Besides, even if she found it, Limulu didn't want to be a nanny!
However, Lidal blinked her eyes slyly like a little witch, and then said pitifully: "If you say that, I really have a child that is more suitable for you, you can't refuse..."
"..." Limulu looked at the fickle woman in front of him with a headache. He knew that she was pretending, but there was nothing he could do with her. After thinking about it, he still refused: "Wait a little longer, after all, I am now I haven't even dealt with it well, so I don't want to mislead my disciples..."
Hearing this, when Lidal frowned for an instant and wanted to refute, she heard a chuckle from behind, followed by an unhurried, absolutely haughty voice like a spring breeze. Lai: "This is too self-deprecating, Rimuru-dono."
When the voice fell, the professor who spoke also came to Limuru and Lidal and staggered past him. With his hands behind his back, his vigorous figure was wearing a blue standard windbreaker to set off his tall and straight figure, although his tone was arrogant. , but Wei Wei still greeted the two of them without losing her demeanor: "Well, Ms. Lidal."
"You came quite early." Faced with the signal from the other party, Lidel had no intention of responding, but narrowed her eyes dangerously and said, "Your Excellency Kenneth..."
Chapter 006, what year is this eve
Kenneth didn't care about Lidal's attitude towards him. Although everyone belonged to the family of the aristocratic faction, the El-Melloi faction always wore the same pants as Urifis, the biggest competitor of the Archelot faction. Not once or twice, but traditional magicians like Kenneth prefer to maintain a perfect posture compared to magicians like Lidal who like to release themselves wantonly.
Whether it's the attitude towards people, or the inevitable success.
"After all, this year's students are coming soon, and they're going to get busy..." Unlike Lidell, Kenneth is not only the monarch of the ore department, but also the first-level lecturer of the descendant department under his tutor's banner ——This also means that he has fixed courses to teach every week.
Limulu looked at this strange acquaintance slightly, and his mind suddenly floated... It was not until he saw Kenneth that he suddenly shifted his thoughts from how to survive himself to the plot... At this time, Kenneth and his impression The image is almost the same, but obviously the sharp aura on his body has not yet settled down like in the plot.
Limulu's eyes drooped slightly, and her fingers tapped unconsciously: "After traveling over, I have been struggling with the environment I am in, and I almost forgot that as a prophet, the most important thing I should figure out is the timeline and timeline. The plot point—"
"There are too many events in the Xingyue world and it is too messy. Even if you hide, there is no absolute guarantee, and if you want to go home... you must take the initiative to pursue these things. The night of the magician has passed. According to the Great Sage Obviously, I am not as lucky as Aoko Aozaki to be able to pry into the root cause..."
"But the younger Kenneth in front of me obviously told me what I should focus on next..."
"The Fourth Holy Grail War."
"Information: You don't have the nuclear power plant storm dragon in the original book, so I suggest you try to get the Holy Grail...it's a good energy source."
"Emmm...Speaking of which, if I eat the Holy Grail...will I really not suffer from indigestion?" Hearing the words of the great sage, Limuru's face became weird instead.
The abilities possessed by the great sage include all things, accelerated thinking, etc., so the conversation between the two, including Limuru's thinking, only passed for a while in reality. At this time, Kenneth, who had finished greeting Lidal, Once again, he looked at Limulu, who was looking at him and was a little distracted, and interrupted Limulu's train of thought by raising the corner of his mouth: "Your Excellency Limulu, it's better to say less about such remarks that mislead your son. After all, the Entpest family has passed down dozens of generations of magic knowledge, even if you just teach them a little bit, it is enough to make them grateful."
"Speaking of which, if you're worried about the quality of your disciples, our Archibald generation has a few talented little guys—"
He didn't go on, but the meaning was self-evident.
"Ah?" Hearing this, Limulu was a little dazed at first. He could understand Kenneth's praise of his family inheritance, but now he seriously doubts whether he has some rumors that have been passed around in the ears of these monarchs and professors. ?Otherwise, why are they all crazily stuffing children like me...?
But I have to say, what Kenneth said made Limulu's heart tremble slightly. If it is about the members of Kenneth's family—then the most famous one must be the disciple of the future princess, who also played with Weber in his hands The black silk girl in the room!
This made Lim Lu's eyes light up, and he almost blurted out in agreement immediately: "Lainis?"
"Lynice?" Unexpectedly, when Kenneth heard this, a trace of doubt flashed across his proud and indifferent face. He thought about it for a long time, but in the end he didn't remember that there was a child in the family named Reinis the name of...
Sounds like a girl's name...but it's not.
Kenneth narrowed his eyes slightly, and confirmed with certainty that, as a genius rarely seen in a century, no matter what the outcome of anything must be success, Kenneth thought that it was impossible for him to make mistakes in such a trivial matter—but, Leni Silk is indeed a good name.
He silently put the name in his heart, then shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, there is no one named Reinis in our family, it seems..."
He glanced at Limuru and Lidel meaningfully, took the other party's reaction as a refusal and smiled, "Your Excellency Limuru already has someone he likes."
"I don't think you need to worry about the disciple's affairs, Professor El-Melloi!"
Lidelle almost gritted her teeth to say this sentence, digging the wall in front of her, she felt that her majesty was greatly offended!
This made her change her name directly, directly raised the topic to the level between magic factions, and reminded Kenneth to get out of here.
"Oh? I think so too." Kenneth chuckled without hesitation, turned around and said, "Although there is still some time left for the meeting, obviously I still have some things to do. See you later, Professor Achelotte .”
"And, I wish you a wonderful afternoon at the Clock Tower, Your Excellency Rimuru."
Kenneth put his hands into the pockets of his uniform, his straight steps and upright posture always made Limuru think that the other party looked like a German soldier——
"What an annoying guy." Lidal narrowed her eyes slightly and muttered while looking at the other person's back.
"I feel okay?" Limulu looked at the back of the other party. To be honest, he didn't have a deep impression of Kenneth, but vaguely remembered that the other party was an unlucky guy who was killed by the tauren.
But these words obviously offended a certain beautiful pink-haired girl. She pinned Limulu's head and twisted it up bitterly: "That's the way you've never seen him when he was mean!"
"His attitude towards you is only because he recognized your family background. If you don't have the surname Entpest, you will know how annoying he is."
Lidal's family is a magic family that only emerged during the Industrial Revolution. When she said this, Limulu immediately understood why Kenneth looked so rude to Lidal, who was also a monarch.
Limulu, whose head was held down by Lidelle, obviously had no intention of admitting defeat honestly. While pulling his head up, he blinked his eyes curiously and said, "So, my status...seems to be higher than yours. high?!"
"??? You bastard!!" Lidal frowned instantly, and regardless of being in the corridor of the clock tower, she directly used her arms to clamp Limulu's head with her height advantage, and put her hands against his. The small face squeezed wildly: "Are you still talking sarcasticly here? You can explain to me who Reynice is first, huh? Are you looking for some flirtatious thing, huh?"
"Oh! Ni let me off the hook first!!!" Limulu, who was caught off guard, was caught immediately, and quickly pulled his head out of the opponent's arms through mimesis into a soft dumpling, and said dumbfoundedly: "I just made it up How about a name?"
Having said that, Limuru's thoughts became clearer and clearer.
Kenneth's reaction showed that Reinis hadn't been born yet... In other words, Matou Sakura and Tohsaka Sakura, who were about the same age as Reinis, hadn't been born either!
From this point of view, the time of the Holy Grail War is far away from where he is!
Chapter 007, There is a magic family named Matou
"Really?" Lidal looked at the blue fur being coiled into a puffy ball like a bird's nest by her, and she felt a lot better for no reason: "I see that you seem to be tempted, if you really have your own plan , I will not interfere."
"Really." Limulu shook his head lightly, looked at more and more students around him and cast a sound-proofing magic before continuing to walk forward: "Speaking of which, if Kenneth puts students in my place, he won't be afraid of causing confusion. Is Reeves dissatisfied?"
"Why do you ask that, of course not." Lidal said strangely: "Kenneth is the successor of the El-Melloi faction, but it doesn't mean that his family is the El-Melloi faction, the Archibald family It also has a magic seal..."
"But the Archibald family is actually... just like that." Lidal smacked her mouth and said with disdain: "If it weren't for the genius Kenneth, this family would not have been known , that’s why I don’t understand where Kenneth has the arrogance to despise other people’s families.”
Having said that, it is obvious that Archibald should not be used to measure Kenneth's family line, but El-Melloi should be used... Limulu slandered helplessly.
After all, although it is a family lineage, in fact, the family lineage in the mouth of a magician is generally based on the magic engraving, not the blood relationship. In addition, the engraving of the magician can only be passed on to one person, which leads to the choice of spreading magic. On the contrary, there are relatively few masters, which makes it easy for magic families to fail to inherit their own blood, so they find other people to pass on as the family line.
In other words, the El-Melloi faction has no offspring who can inherit the talent of magic engraving in this generation, so that after Kenneth inherits it, then Kenneth will be regarded as a member of the El-Melloi family first, and then as a member of the El-Melloi family. It was Archibald.
"Uh..." But looking at the girl who started to get angry again, Limuru closed his mouth wisely, and turned to ask another question he cared about: "That... Lidal Duck!"
"Say."
"This year... what year is it?"
Lidal: "???"
The next moment, Limulu felt an extremely gentle touch on his forehead, and Lidel touched his head with a worried face...
Rimuru: (ー`?ー)? !
"What are you doing?!" Limuru looked up in dissatisfaction, and saw Lidel's eyes as if she was looking at an idiot, and muttered, "It's okay..."
"..." Limulu only felt a little sad. To be honest, he didn't want to ask such a question!
But in this broken era, smart phones have not yet appeared, and even the Internet and computers are still DOS systems, not to mention the billboards and time reminders that can be seen everywhere in later generations.
He has tried his best to pay attention to the surrounding environment, but in the end, he can only infer that it is London in the late 80s based on the age of Lidelle, who has passed seven or eight years since Witch's Night!What can he do!He is also very desperate!
But fortunately, although Lidal didn't quite understand his pain and sourness, at least she answered honestly: "1987, what happened."
1987!The Fourth Holy Grail War is 1994! (Some people think that the time of the Fourth Holy Grail War is 1990, and Baidu Encyclopedia used to be at this time, but the UBW version shows that the fifth Holy Grail War is 2004, and the second episode of the previous zore also said that Clinton was already president at that time Well, Clinton came to power in 92, so here is the setting in 94, hereby pointing it out, to prevent misunderstanding...)
After getting the correct answer, Limulu's mind raced quickly, and he was a little disappointed and relieved at the same time.
Disappointed because there are still seven years before the Fourth Holy Grail War, which is quite a long time, which means that within seven years, he must develop obscenely because the knowledge of the prophets in his brain is useless at all, relieved , naturally because seven years is a long time, but it is also enough time for development——
The only thing that makes him a little disappointed is that this also means that he will have to stay in this world for at least seven years...
seven years
In a person's life, there are several seven years...
Seeing Limuru's expression suddenly relieved and then suddenly lost, Lidel became more and more confused: "Is there any problem with this time?"
"No... just thought of something suddenly."
The two gradually went deeper into the clock tower, and the already rare students became even rarer.
"You said... Is it difficult for you to help keep an eye on a family of magic?"
"Huh? It depends on which family of magic it is." Lidal stopped her footsteps and stopped immediately, her whole face became serious and she looked at Limulu and said, "If it's someone like Kenneth..."
"No, no, no! It's just an ordinary family in the Far East. It used to have some reputation, but it has declined."
Limulu blinked, paused slightly, and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter to me whether to stare at the other party or not, but if I don't do it, I always feel a little uncomfortable—"
"Land of the Far East?" Lidal was silent for a moment, she didn't know why she suddenly thought of her best friend, a certain Kuyuanji, indifferent, black-bellied, Youzhu who likes to wear black long dress...
She glanced at Rimuru suspiciously, always wondering if he did it on purpose, after all, compared to Kuonji Yuzu, who has a great say in the Far East, the Archelot family whose headquarters are in England It's really...too exhausting! !
Even if one is a big capitalist in the city and the other is a broken squire in the countryside, but the emperor is far away... But then again, you can let go of other things, but Lidel really doesn't want to let her matter about Limuru This childhood friend...
"But if it's just an ordinary magician's house, it shouldn't be a problem..." Lidal said to herself: "At worst, I can use the name of the concert to go there myself..."
"Did you misunderstand something?" Limulu saw that the other party was lost in thought, and Lidel, who was planning how to enter the Far East, quickly stopped him: "I just ask you, and let you keep an eye on it by the way. As for I have other plans of my own!"
Good guy, let a monarch go to Fuyuki City in advance, the ghost knows if there will be any changes in the Holy Grail War——
"Just stare?" Lidel continued to stare at Limuru suspiciously for a while, and said softly, "Really, Limuru, I mean it, if they mess with you, trust me, For Archelot, or your previous Entpest family, just exterminating a magic family in the far east is like breathing a sigh of relief, there is no difference—"
"So, Limuru." There was a trace of indifference in Lidel's eyes, and she said coldly: "If someone tramples on your authority, you don't need to be patient, even if it is a bloodbath in the extreme east..."
"..." Looking at the extremely serious Lidal, a warm current flashed in Limulu's heart, but she still touched the cold sweat on her head and said speechlessly: "It's not that serious, it's just that there are some things I need over there. But now...is not the time."
Also, by the way, see if you can change the fate of that poor girl.
"Is that so?" Lidal rubbed her chin, although she felt that Limuru's thoughts were still going astray. If his family really regained its glory, what would it take to return to the position of monarch? Really.
But she still chose to respect Limulu's opinion, it's good to have her own opinion... It's good to have her own opinion!
It's much better than the crazy autistic state a few years ago!
"Okay, I agreed, but if it's surveillance, I still have to ask Youju...By the way, what are the characteristics of that magic family?"
"Features? No, the Matou family in Fuyuki City should be quite famous, right?"
"The Matou family?"
"Yes, Matou."
