"Bullshit, I asked around too. It cost a lot of money, and they said it was because they're members of the royal family."

"..." x2

He definitely has something! x2

Could it really be my relative? x2

The two were completely baffled. They certainly didn't know if they had a relative named Gao Wen. But the school's arrangements and the information they'd gathered couldn't be faked. Unable to find a solution, they could only ask the newcomers.

Click!

Speak of Gao Wen, and Gao Wen arrives.

Gao Wen opened the villa gate carrying a lot of bags and packages. He had picked up all of them from the South District dormitory management office. In addition to bedding, toothbrush, towel and other daily necessities, he had also bought a new school uniform.

Newcomers are required to receive this, but it's not free, especially the accommodation fee, which costs 1 yuan a year—it's practically robbery.

The robbers risked their lives to kidnap a young master, but they only dared to demand a ransom of 50!

Gao Wen was already dissatisfied with losing money on his first day of school, but he never expected that after spending a lot of money, he would end up in the furthest villa: "They actually assigned me such a remote dormitory just because I arrived last. All the good rooms were taken..."

Gao Wen stopped halfway through his sentence, looking at the two young men in the room with a puzzled expression.

After a little thought, I figured it out. (JPG)

Damn it, I spent so much money, and not only is the apartment out of the way, but I also have roommates!

RNM, refund my money!!

"..." x3

The unexpected encounter was slightly awkward, but Hugh broke the silence first, politely stepping forward and extending his hand, saying, "Hugh Ignis, hello, new roommate."

"Hello, Gao Wen."

“And me, Hill Griffith.”

"Hello, I'm new here. I hope you two will take good care of me in the future."

The names were a bit confusing, and Gao Wen didn't quite remember them after shaking hands with each one. Fortunately, it wasn't a big problem, as the AI ​​assistant was very knowledgeable and had a good memory. By comparing the data collected over this period, Gao Wen quickly got a general idea of ​​the two people's identities.

One is a member of the royal family, possibly a prince, and the other is the young master of the Blue Hair family.

Gao Wen immediately perked up and carefully examined his new roommate.

He didn't care much about looks; no one was as handsome as him anyway. What mattered was their manners and demeanor.

No wonder he's an elite from royal family; look at that fake official smile. He can even make a schoolgirl look like a student. He's a good candidate for the system!

This one is even more impressive. Just look at that unrestrained and flamboyant hairstyle. He's definitely a spoiled brat!

Gawain's education made it difficult for him to feel any awe or reverence for royalty or princes. They all had two eyes and a mouth, and even their excrement had to be cut off. He just thought they were amazing and rare, and that was it.

If I had to say something, I'd say I envy the other person for being born in Rome.

Not only Gawain, but everyone was the same before they wore it. Not to mention royal power, even imperial power had been overthrown. People would pat their brothers on the shoulder and say things like, "The prince is often ill, you should encourage him," or "My son has the appearance of a great emperor." No one thought it was inappropriate.

This kid is really handsome, almost as handsome as me. You can't grow a face like that without the accumulation of generations of good looks.

Hill, curious about Gawain's background, enthusiastically stepped forward to carry his luggage and took it to an empty room on the second floor. He kept talking and soon he was arm in arm with Gawain.

The last one who talked a lot was Holden, who also liked to put his arm around Gawain's shoulder. He's now in the train station morgue, in stable condition, and the school has already sent people to move him.

Beside him was Hugh, who did everything without saying a word, and had already made the bed for Gao Wen.

"Gao Wen, we're all brothers living in the same house. You know who my cousin and I are, so tell me about yourself!"

Hill couldn't keep anything to himself: "You're not an ordinary person to be able to get into this dormitory. Tell me, what's your surname, which nobleman is your father, and where is your family's fiefdom?"

I'd like to know that too!

Gao Wen frowned. The fact that he was arranged to live in this ordinary villa meant that his family was not simple, but he had amnesia and really didn't know anything.

"Gawain, say something!"

"Who my father is doesn't matter, and where my family is doesn't matter either. The moment I stepped into the school gate, the road ahead was only under my feet. I will get everything through my own efforts, not by relying on so-called family." Gao Wen had a clear and serious expression, as if he hadn't been beaten down by society.

At such a young age, he doesn't want to rely on his parents' connections; he insists on working hard on his own. What a wonderful fool!

Hill, who relied entirely on his father, blinked. If possible, he wished the whole world were full of such fools.

The less Gawain said, the more curious Hill became, and he resorted to his ultimate move—corrupting the good kids.

"Big brother, you're right, that's ambitious! Big brother, have a cigarette, the export kind, it's strong." Hill took out his lighter and was about to light it for Gawain.

"No, no, no."

Gao Wen waved his hands repeatedly, firstly because smoking was not allowed in the dormitory, and secondly because he had heard from friends that smoking caused headaches and was harmful to health.

“It’s okay. Many of my friends experienced dizziness and weakness when they first started smoking. Believe me, it has nothing to do with the cigarettes; it’s all because their parents beat them,” Hill advised. He added that smoking is only harmful to health when parents are around.

"It still doesn't work; smoking can cause erectile dysfunction."

"..."

Hill stopped trying to persuade him, silently went to the trash can, and threw away all the cigarettes and lighter.

From this day forward, he will never tolerate cigarettes again!

Gawain was tight-lipped, and Hill couldn't get anything out of him. Unwilling to give up, Hill invited Gawain to dinner at the shopping street that night. It would just be the three of them; they'd run into each other all the time, so they couldn't let their relationship fade.

He was confident that he could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk and get Gao Wen to tell him the truth.

Someone offered to treat him to a meal, and Gao Wen readily agreed, then went to the bathroom to take a quick shower.

I've been traveling a lot and haven't had a proper shower, so I feel itchy all over.

……

In the living room on the first floor, Hill complained that the newcomer didn't treat him like a brother, keeping quiet even though they were relatives.

Hugh didn't think so. He had a very good impression of Gawain: "The young man has ambition. He's not a good-for-nothing aristocrat who just loafs around and waits to die. That's something we should all learn from."

"Cousin, are you picking me?"

"Yes, people who are more talented than you are working hard, so why aren't you working hard?"

"People more talented than me are working hard, so what's the point of my efforts?"

Hugh was used to it, and he had given up trying to persuade Hill last year. But with Gawain's example, he couldn't help but bring it up again: "Cousin, I remember when you started school, your uncle told you to study hard, and you promised him you would. You also said that learning makes people happy and that you love learning the most."

"That's right. Studying makes my mom happy, and when my mom is happy, the whole family is happy, so studying makes me happy."

"Then you should study properly!" Xiu couldn't hold back any longer.

"My cousin has a narrow perspective."

Hill waved his hand and looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle: "Your uncle also said that there is a right way to study. You can't just blindly study. Those who can get into the Royal Magic University are all geniuses. He told me not to feel pressured. If you don't study well, do what you love and have relationships. You can't force it. You have to be willing to spend money. The more people you have, the easier it is to walk. Only in this way can the family prosper."

"..."

Is that what you mean by "uncle"?

So, out of all that long talk, you only absorbed four words!

Chapter 25 Is it too late to move out now?

dusk.

The setting sun poured down its golden light, bathing the entire university town in a warm amber hue.

Silver City, commercial street.

This is the most bustling area of ​​the city, with wide streets and all kinds of shops lined up one after another.

The windows of magical material shops display crystals and ores that shimmer with strange light; potion shops have glass bottles of various shapes hanging in front of them, the liquids inside swirling with eerie colors; and magical tool shops have colorful lights that rotate constantly beside their entrances, attracting the attention of passersby...

The air was filled with a variety of scents, from the fragrance of luxury perfumes to the strange, pungent smell of magic potions, and the enticing aroma of delicious food.

Pedestrians came in an endless stream, including nobles in fine clothes, members of the mage guild in cloaks, clergy in various attire, and most of all, university students in school uniforms.

The university town gathers the most outstanding magical geniuses in the entire Golden Kingdom. Regardless of whether they are born into nobility or come from remote mountain villages, once they step through this gate, it means that their starting point is far ahead of their peers.

They are all talented individuals, the future cornerstones of the nation!

For this reason, the university town has extremely strict regulations that prohibit brothels, casinos and other shady establishments.

Any attempt to establish such a place within the university city will be subject to the most severe punishment. The Royal Magic University has a high degree of autonomy in this area, and the university insists that Silver City is a pure sanctuary of knowledge, and anything that could corrupt the minds of young mages is not allowed to exist.

Of course, water that is too clear has no fish. Gray areas are not good, but there can't be no room for any friction. Otherwise, the trainees will become hothouse flowers, driven by curiosity, and will find it difficult to resist external temptations in the future.

Therefore, there are still bars, nightclubs, sports lottery clubs, and similar establishments.

We cannot take a one-size-fits-all approach; we must demystify it appropriately.

The school made all the money again!

……

In the luxurious hotel private room, Hill, as expected of the eldest son of the Blue Hair family, was incredibly generous, spending money without batting an eye. He didn't care about the best, but only the most expensive, ordering all the signature dishes.

Gao Wen arrived at school around noon and spent half a day completing the enrollment procedures. By all accounts, he hadn't eaten for three days.

"Gao Wen, don't just eat the food, have a sip of water too!"

"That's not how you drink red wine. You have to savor it like I do. You have to savor it carefully."

"Alright, since you're so generous, I'll go crazy with you!"

Hill's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He had followed his father since childhood, attending all kinds of high-end gatherings, where there was flattery and difficult situations. He had developed a strong ability to drink without getting drunk. He figured that with a little effort today, he could easily take down the clear-eyed freshman.

This is in the bag!

"Ton ton ton————"

Half an hour later, Hill lay under the table clutching the wine bottle, while Gawain, without batting an eye, quickly cleaned up the mess and let out a satisfied burp.

Hugh's eyes twitched. He helped Hill up, who was clinging to his leg and rubbing against him, and said politely, "Gawain, are you full? If not, order a few more dishes."

"Alright, another table, please."

"..."

The next table is the third one!

Hugh's eye twitched even more violently. The goodwill he had built up when he first met Gawain had vanished. His intuition told him that Gawain only looked innocent, but in reality, he was extremely skilled. If he made a rash move, Hill would suffer the same fate.
