Chapter 4. How could you lay hands on an underage girl!
—Gwen came surrounded by servants. Victor very gentlemanly extended his hand and invited her into the conference room.
He walked side by side with Gwen. Along the way, Gwen sized up Victor and incidentally caught sight of the extremely dark one-eyed crow on Victor's shoulder.
After the two entered the conference room, Victor gave a look to the servants beside him, and the servants knowingly left.
After the conference room door closed, Gwen and Victor took their seats.
Gwen coldly asked, "Did you receive the invitation from the academy?"
Victor tapped on the table with his finger and said, "Received it."
After answering, the air in the room suddenly cooled down.
At this moment, Victor completely couldn't figure out what attitude the woman in front of him had towards "himself".
Although the two had an engagement, it was also she who killed Victor in the end. Victor felt that Gwen had no feelings for him at all.
But Gwen had also helped him.
The professor's invitation sent by the academy was naturally also nominated with the help of the Delin family.
The more Victor thought about it, the more confused he became.
In short, if he could improve his relationship with Gwen, perhaps he could avoid the death ending.
Victor waved his hand, and five bottles of blood-red life potions appeared on the table and were placed in front of Gwen.
"Please accept these."
Gwen just glanced at them and had no intention of accepting them at all.
Victor looked at her proud appearance and sighed, then continued, "This is a thank-you gift for your help. I heard Lia say that I don't want to owe you a favor."
He looked into Gwen's eyes with his jet-black eyes.
Gwen turned her head away, bit her lip, hesitated for a while, and asked,
"Yesterday, did you really confess to the duke's daughter?"
Victor remained silent. Did he do that thing yesterday... He himself didn't know.
That was done by "Victor" of yesterday, and it was completely different from Victor of today.
Seeing his continued silence, Gwen really thought he had done such a thing. Her cheeks flushed red and she scolded,
"Victor! How could you do such a thing? The duke's daughter is only seventeen years old! You actually laid hands on an underage girl!"
Victor:...
Now it seems that everyone knows that he tried to flirt with an underage girl but failed.
Gwen is an extremely just knight in her heart and naturally can't tolerate such a thing as flirting with an underage girl.
If this matter cannot be properly resolved, it is very likely to be the fuse that causes Victor and Gwen to completely fall out in the future. So he must handle it properly.
Victor felt a lot of gloom in his heart and said to her, "I hope you can understand that I don't like the eldest lady of the duke's family."
Gwen glared at him and continued, "This matter has already become known to everyone."
Victor looked into her eyes that revealed anger and helplessness and replied heavily, "I will handle this matter well and won't let the public opinion continue to haunt us."
Victor himself was very clear that with this matter coming out like this, not only his Clevenner family but also the Delin family with whom he had an engagement would naturally be disgraced.
The Delin family helping him was also helping themselves.
Gwen opened her mouth but couldn't say a single word. Looking at Victor, she always felt that there was some change in him now, but she couldn't say exactly what had changed.
Gwen stood up, accepted the medicine bottles, turned around and was about to leave. At the moment of opening the door, she said to Victor, "If you have any difficulties, come to me and I will help you."
After saying that, she pushed the door and left.
Victor heaved a sigh of relief.
When Veigar saw him like this, he couldn't help but 吐槽 in his ear in a loud voice, "Who is this person?"
"My fiancée."
Victor spread his hands, somewhat helplessly.
The one-eyed crow gave him a pitying look and stroked the feathers on its body with its beak: "She is very sensitive and her eyes are very terrifying. It's like she can see through me. Fortunately, I just look like an ordinary crow."
Victor was really speechless.
"A one-eyed crow is not ordinary at all."
...
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day. Victor arrived at the academy as promised.
The Royal Magic Academy, as its name suggests, are all young masters and ladies who are either rich or noble who can study here.
There is also a special group of people. They have superior magic talent and can be exempted from tuition fees and study magic here.
The tuition fee is not exempted for nothing. As a price, in the future, these geniuses will naturally become people who work for the royal family.
Looking at the magnificent magic academy, Victor thought of the scenes in the game:
He remembered that there was a huge library here for mage players to learn magic of various ranks.
Victor planned to go there and learn.
He urgently needed some very powerful skills to support his magic level. Although Victor's own magic was already sufficient, as a player, the quantity of magic could naturally provide him with more security.
The contract had been delivered to Victor yesterday. He was now a high-level professor at the Royal Magic Academy.
When he came to the academy for the first time, he took the initiative to meet the dean. After a simple greeting, the dean asked him to teach in the best class in the entire academy to prove his strength.
After leaving the dean's office, he came to the mage tower according to the memory in his mind.
The mage tower, also called the trial tower. Players can take a trial here once a day. If they pass the trial, they will obtain a large amount of experience points.
The tall tower was very imposing, reaching straight into the sky. The walls were covered with all kinds of magic arrays. Looking up further, the hazy ripples covered people's eyes, as if containing some kind of mystery.
Victor approached the magic tower and touched the barrier. The magic power on his body trembled slightly.
[Identity verification successful. Professor Victor, welcome back to the mage tower.]
A slow black mist appeared in front of him. When he came to his senses, he was already inside the tower.
"So that's the teleportation array."
After walking up the stairs, all kinds of ores containing powerful magic were all over the tower. The books were in perfect order, completely different from what he saw outside the tower.
Looking at the spotless floor, Victor immediately realized that someone had cleaned here.
He heard a cry of surprise from behind and turned to look.
A woman with short shoulder-length hair appeared in front of Victor. A pair of fluorescent yellow eyes stared at Victor. Maybe because Victor was staring at her, her cheeks were red and she asked in a trembling voice,
"Are you Mr. Victor?"
Victor turned his head back and admitted it.
The girl then said, but the nervousness didn't decrease at all:
"I... I am Hennie, your teaching assistant", and then handed Victor a speech manuscript, "You only need to memorize this before class in the afternoon and then lecture according to the content on this speech manuscript."
Victor took the speech manuscript, glanced at it lightly and nodded: "Thank you."
Hennie suddenly became at a loss and trotted out of Victor's office.
Victor thought to himself: "The academy has really done everything flawlessly."
Now no one in this school knows exactly what Victor's real knowledge is like. Although he is a very powerful third-rank mage.
Even if the school gave him the position of professor, it was only because of his magic talent.
If Victor was just a waste, even with the nominations of two families, this professorship wouldn't fall on him.
What he needs to do now is to give a speech based on the school's manuscript. As long as he is flawless in this regard, at least when people outside see it, they definitely can't find any faults.
Our professors of the Royal Academy are definitely not half-baked!
Victor picked up the speech manuscript again and read it for a while.
After all, if there is something ready-made that can be used, why not?
The time at noon passed in an instant. The weather in the afternoon was even brighter.
People from all walks of life were waiting for the appearance and speech of the young professor of the Royal Magic Academy. They were also very curious whether this talented professor who had been silent for many years was just a gimmick created by the academy.
Victor arrived at the classroom. He had already memorized the speech content thoroughly. He only needed to take out a part of the content and talk about it to easily pass this level.
Originally, Victor thought so.
But when he scanned the classroom and saw a blond enchantress sitting in the first row, he changed his mind.
At seventeen years old, she is the most talented student in the Royal Magic Academy in recent years.
Her family background is also particularly prominent.
Second only to one person, the duke's daughter.
Elika Du Croix.
He didn't expect that the object he had provoked the day before had become his student.
Elika naturally noticed him too. There were continuous colors in her beautiful eyes, and it was impossible to guess what she was thinking.
'This is the little beauty on yesterday's newspaper headlines. She's quite beautiful. Let me see... Tsk tsk, she's not very old, but she's already a second-rank mage. There's something special.'
Veigar on Victor's shoulder secretly said to Victor.
The reason why Veigar could come to the classroom with Victor was that the Royal Magic Academy never prohibited keeping pets and did not limit the types of pets.
The dean himself raised a watermelon with eyes.
Compared with that kind of thing, a one-eyed crow is not a rare species.
Victor cleared his throat and said to the students in the classroom,
"I am Victor Clevenner, a professor at the Royal Magic Academy, and now I am your teacher."
"The course content to be taught today is: "The Influence of Array Composition on High-Level Magic Systems"."
...
Victor gradually became proficient and immersed in it. Time passed quickly.
About forty minutes later, he looked at his watch. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon and waved his hand.
"Class is over."
He couldn't help but feel a burst of relief in his heart:
Great, there's nothing wrong with this class, and no one asked questions. It's very smooth.
Victor was about to leave. Suddenly, Elika sitting in the first row raised her hand and smiled.
"Teacher, I have a question. Can you answer it for me?"
After hearing this, Victor's face darkened slightly.
Sure enough, someone is looking for trouble.
