To be king and magician

The reason why Xia Chuanhu was able to enroll was because Kenneth El-Mello, one of the Twelve Monarchs of the Clock Tower, had sent him a special invitation to enroll directly.

And now, a month after high school graduation.

After more than ten hours of air travel, Xia Chuanhu finally set foot on the land of London.

Pulling the suitcase out of the airport, I stretched my waist hard: "Hmmm! It's comfortable, my buttocks are numb after sitting on the plane for more than ten hours. By the way, it should be here Alright, my pick-up guy."

Xia Chuanhu looked towards the side of the road while talking to himself.Before coming, Kenneth had told him that there would be someone waiting for him at the airport to take him to the clock tower.

"what......"

"Yo......"

At a glance, Xia Chuanhu recognized the pick-up person arranged by Kenneth——Webber Velvet.

"Are you... Rider's master? Are you here to pick up the plane? I remember you weren't going to..."

A year ago, after the Holy Grail War ended, Xia Chuanhu and Weber were actually placed in the same ward, but when Xia Chuanhu woke up, Weber was about to leave.

After being discharged from the hospital, Xia Chuanhu remembered that he was not planning to go back to the clock tower immediately, but was planning to go back to Iskandar's Eastern Expedition before going back.

It's only been a year since you came back?

"Have you finished your journey to the East?"

"Well, I came back half a year ago, although it turned out that I was arrested." With a wry smile, Weber opened the door behind him, "Anyway, get in the car first, there is a distance from the clock tower, let's talk about it on the way .”

————————————————————————

The airport is not close to the clock tower, so during this period of time, Weber briefly described his experience of the past year to Xia Chuanhu as he said before getting into the car.

"After the Holy Grail War ended, I left Fuyuki City. Although I was affirmed by the king and became his subject, I actually didn't know that king very well, so I followed the path he conquered back then. route, and started traveling in reverse."

In fact, there is another reason why he felt ashamed to go back to the Clock Tower. After all, he borrowed travel expenses to Japan from a classmate in exchange for [will definitely bring back interesting stories] to participate in the Holy Grail War. In the end he still couldn't do anything.

Combining various factors, Weber decided to travel.

After leaving Japan, I went to India first, then set off from India to Persia, and then went to Macedonia. I used my own eyes and feet to see all the scenery that Iskandar had seen, and traveled all over Iskandar. every inch of ground.

"That was really not an interesting trip. Punks, thieves, thieves, robbers... Really, every time I meet, I feel like I have to explain where I am. After finally escaping , In a blink of an eye, I found that the luggage was not stolen. It is really full of bad memories.”

Weber smiled wryly as he said it, but there was no complaint or dissatisfaction in his eyes. If he could go on the road of conquering the king again, he must have got what he wanted.

"And you came back?"

"No, I was captured by Teacher Kenneth."

Mentioning this matter, Weber sighed helplessly.

"My last stop was the ruins of Babylon in Iraq, the city built by Gilgamesh and the last city where Rider died of illness. I wanted to use it as the end of my trip. However, I was rejected on the third day there. Teacher Nice blocked the door, saying that because I haven't gone to the classroom for a long time, the credits of this semester are at risk of dissatisfaction, so I personally came out to arrest me and go back to class."

The dignified monarch actually went out in person to arrest a student and go back to class?

Xia Chuanhu was stunned in surprise, and then couldn't help laughing: "Haha, is it true? That Mr. Kenneth is so interested in you? He traveled all the way to Iraq to find you? No way!"

"Right, you also think it's outrageous."

It happened to be a red light, so Weber simply lay on the steering wheel.

"In this way, I was arrested back to the clock tower half a year ago. Now I have obtained the third-level lecturer's license. While working as an acting lecturer in the El Mello classroom, I am also an assistant to Mr. Kenneth, helping him deal with some problems. business."

"Assistant? You?"

"[Your magic talent and level are indeed only third-rate, but there are gains and losses. Even though your magic ability is not outstanding, you also have another talent, so let this talent be used for me]——I don’t know if you say so If you look down on people or praise them, they directly made me his assistant, and also dumped part of El-Mello's debts on me, saying that after all, I accounted for part of El-Mello's debts Responsibility or something... I've been getting some stomach pains lately because of it."

Before participating in the Holy Grail War, in order to ensure the safety of the Holy Grail War, Kenneth borrowed a lot of magic dresses and magic furnaces from other schools. All the heirs were blown up.

Therefore, the El-Melloi school directly bears a huge debt, and I don't know how many years it will take to pay it off!

Patting Weber on the shoulder, Xia Chuanhu smiled and said, "Come on, Weber, I believe Mr. Kenneth must be kind to you, Don`tmind."

"That's what you say...hah..."

Weber let out a long sigh.

2. Mr. Kenneth, you are so kind to me

The Clock Tower, an academic city of the Ore Division, and the office of its lord, Kenneth El-Mello Archibald.

Xia Chuanhu and Kenneth sat on the sofa on both sides of the coffee table and looked at each other.

"It's been four months, Tiger." Kenneth said first, "Although it's not a long time, it seems that you have changed a lot after the Holy Grail War."

"Ah, do you mean these locks of blond hair? On a whim, I want to imitate delinquent boys."

Xia Chuanhu touched the golden fringe on his forehead.Because of the fusion of Arthur's spiritual foundation, Xia Chuanhu's whole person began to gradually move closer to Arthur's direction, which is specifically manifested in physical characteristics. In a few years, his hair will completely become the same as Arthur's. As golden as the sun.

Xia Chuanhu was originally a handsome boy, and with these strands of blond hair, he was often approached by girls in school. Unfortunately, Xia Chuanhu really couldn't be moved by the faces of ordinary passers-by.

"Let's get down to business, Mr. Kenneth. Thank you very much for inviting me to study at the Clock Tower, and for helping me pay the tuition fee for the first semester."

"Hmph, my dignity and pride do not allow me to be in debt to you all the time. Moreover, your talent as the first generation magician is very outstanding, coupled with the gem-level magic eye that is comparable to the miracle of God's Domain, this kind of talent is placed in that A small country in the Far East is really a waste.”

In fact, Kenneth's idea was that he would guide Xia Chuanhu to get started, and tie him up with the love of mentor and apprentice and the kindness of knowledge and understanding, so that he could be lured into the El-Melloi School in the future.An excellent female magician is the mother to raise better offspring, and this is the same for male magicians. If Xia Chuanhu can join the Archibald family, it will definitely be beneficial to the development of the family.

Helping Xia Chuanhu pay the tuition in advance is also to make Xia Chuanhu owe him favors in turn.

"I have already handled most of your admission procedures for you, and you must go through the rest by yourself, and then let Webb take you through it. It is still a holiday, and the official start time is next week , and make all the preparations before then.”

"Ah."

"In addition, regarding the subjects... In theory, every student must first study the basic knowledge in all basic subjects for five years, and then transfer to other subjects after completing the credits. But I don't allow you to be so talented Five years wasted."

If it is mainly five years, Kenneth instinctively feels that Xia Chuanhu may grow beyond his control, just like Aozaki Chengzi who came out of the creation department before, as a student, he eventually surpassed all the teachers. Reached the highest rank of magician.

Even though Kenneth didn't think Xia Chuanhu had that ability, he still hoped that he could safely control this talent.

"Two years, I want you to graduate from all basic subjects, and then transfer to the mine—"

"Spirit Science, right?" Xia Chuanhu interrupted Kenneth's speech, "Oh, I'm really bothering you, Mr. Kenneth, I'm just a student in your name, but I'm bothering you to work so hard for me, even in the future. The direction has been planned, thank you very much.”

Looking at Xia Chuanhu who was smiling heartily, Kenneth knew that this kid had seen through everything, and he was obviously playing against him.

However, it doesn't matter about the Jiangling Division. After all, he is the son-in-law of the emperor of the Jiangling Division. Xia Chuanhu is still under his control when he goes to the Jiangling Division. The difference is only the degree of control.What's more, his magic eye can only be better played and developed in the Spiritual Division.

"Hmph, it's good if you understand." Kenneth snorted coldly, "I will say hello to the Spiritual Division, and you should also get in touch with people from the Spiritual Division. With your magic eyes, you can develop If it is good, it will definitely be one of the candidates for the next monarch.”

"Understood, thank you for these suggestions and preparations for me, and I will trouble you."

"Forget the flattery. Hurry up and finish what you need to do. I will ask Weber to pick you up tonight. Anyway, I invited you to the Clock Tower. I have prepared a dinner for you tonight."

"Oh, what an embarrassment—I will definitely go! Then please allow me to take my leave first, teacher."

Standing up and bowing to Kenneth, Xia Chuanhu walked out of the office.

In the corridor outside, Wei Bo leaned against the wall and looked at Xia Chuanhu who came out and closed the door: "You are so bold, you dare to interrupt the teacher."

"I did this when I was in Fuyuki City a year ago, what's so bold about it?"

Xia Chuanhu shrugged.

"You are the first one to interrupt Mr. Kenneth's speech, thank you for your courage." Weber sighed tiredly, "Come with me, I will take you to go through the final admission procedures , and then take you to where you live."

"Did Mr. Kenneth push everything other than research to you?"

"Yeah. Ah, my stomach..."

Handling all the daily affairs of a monarch except for research, and also taking care of his studies, is this the awakening of the essence of overtime work more than ten years in advance?

————————————————————————————

There are not many final admission procedures, just to register all aspects of Xia Chuanhu's information, magic circuits, magic attributes, etc. After all, the clock tower is the base camp of almost all existing magicians. In order to carry out effective management, this level of registration is still Necessary.

However, there were still some episodes at the end of the formalities.Seeing that Xia Chuanhu was the first generation, the magicians of several famous nobles habitually came to provoke and humiliate them. This is a very common thing in the clock tower. Originally, Xia Chuanhu was not prepared to fight with these capitalist and feudalist guys. wrangling.

He came here only to learn magic, and he would not stay here even after graduating from the Clock Tower in the future, and he had no intention of making deep friendships with the people here.

"You might be in some trouble."

Looking at those noble magicians who were directly ignored by Xia Chuanhu, Weber lowered his voice and said.

"There are many factions in the clock tower. I probably know what you think, but if you do this...forget it, I think you won't listen to what I say."

"Don't you know my character very well?" Xia Chuanhu smiled, "Where shall we go now? All the procedures are done, do you need me to get a textbook or something?"

"There is no such thing as a textbook. If you want a book, you can just go to the library and go directly to the library. Moreover, the learning of magicians is more about self-study than teaching by others. The Clock Tower will not teach you much."

"Is that so... Then the next itinerary?"

"I'll take you to where you live."

3. Lilyn May

Kenneth's preparations for Xia Chuanhu not only included the various procedures required for enrolling in the Clock Tower, but also helped Xia Chuanhu prepare a place to live.Xia Chuanhu has no idea what Kenneth's attitude towards him is. There is no such thing as a magician giving for no reason. Since Kenneth is so kind to him, it means that he must be thinking about something.

However, even if he knew, Xia Chuanhu couldn't do anything.To put it simply, he is now back to the situation where the Holy Grail War just started, and what's worse, he has now lost the advantage of foresight. Be prepared to deal with it.

In the future life, he can only take one step at a time.

"We have arrived."

And when Xia Chuanhu was thinking about the future, as the car stopped, Weber's voice came to his ears.

Withdrawing his attention, after getting off the car, Xia Chuanhu appeared in front of an apartment with a very old-fashioned appearance. The exterior was covered with creepers, and the walls were red, white, and black. It looks like the bricks have fallen off over time.

Xia Chuanhu had read magazines about the English countryside before, and now the apartment in front of him was extremely similar to the country houses he had seen before.

"This is the apartment Mr. Kenneth arranged for me?"

"To be precise, it is one of the student dormitories under the name of the clock tower."

Helping Xia Chuanhu take out the luggage from the trunk, Weber replied with a smile.

"Although the magicians in the Clock Tower are almost all nobles and famous families, there are always a few outliers, such as you and me. In order to accommodate people like us, the Clock Tower will buy some old magicians. Apartments let us live in them, and this is one of them, and I'm currently living here."

"You live here too?"

Xia Chuanhu raised his eyebrows. Weber is now the official lecturer of the Clock Tower, and Kenneth's assistant. Does he still live in the student apartment?

As if seeing Xia Chuanhu's doubts, Weber spread his hands: "I can't afford to live in the lecturer's dormitory. After all, I'm in debt now, and the rent there is very high. Compared with it, it's almost cheap here." It can be said that it is for nothing, but correspondingly, the conditions here are only average."

"I don't have any requirements for housing conditions. Anyway, I sleep in a rented house in Japan."

"That's good."
