Overlord, I don't want to be the Holy Queen's Great Sword

Most of the applications of magic are related to warriors, but there are very few applications related to magic.

Fluder's search for his disciple also reminded Karko of something.

Is it true that there is no one with a slightly higher level of magical attainment who can study this kind of magic?

The head of the priest corps is too old. Although High Priest Marianna is of the fourth rank, she is not a warrior.

Who else has a high level of magic and is suitable for this path?

Karko narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of rebellion.

By the way, dad... seems quite suitable!

Karl couldn't help but look at the ring in his hand.

It just so happened that she asked a person from the Wind Flower Holy Scripture to go and develop the city. It seems that several months have passed, so the person should be here soon, right?

Karl couldn't help but think.

At the same time, in the palace of the Holy Kingdom, a burly man as big as a brown bear couldn't help but sneeze a few times.

"Strange, who is talking about me?"

Sarah II couldn't help but pinch his nose and said in confusion.

Chapter 124: Ai Xue on the Coaster (4,200)

I... survived?

Inside the pitch-black tower, the girl stood blankly in the center. Countless magic casters quickly shuttled around, surrounding each other, leaving only an open space in the center where the girl was.

But the girl knew very well that this was not because of her.

The figures passing by seemed to become reins, pulling her wandering consciousness back bit by bit.

Finally, the girl's dull gaze fell on the old man in front of her, whose face was old but whose eyes were as full of vitality as a teenager's.

Compared to her, the Imperial Grand Mage Fluder is the core of the entire Mage Tower and even the entire empire.

Only thanks to the other party, she and her family may be able to survive in the future.

As the girl was cheering herself up in her heart, Fluder slowly put down the documents in his hand and set his eyes on the girl.

"Aishe Evelierfield, you are seven years old this year. Your parents are both nobles. Not only do you have the same natural supernatural power as me, you can see through the magic eyes, but your magic performance is also ranked first among your peers in the academy."

"Geniuses like you are rare even in the Imperial Magic Academy. However, those who are on the same path as you, or even those who are less talented than you, chose to leave after hearing my request. Why did you choose to stay?"

"Could it be that the people I sent to the magic academy were worried about being punished by me, so they didn't tell you about the content of this experiment?"

Fluder passed the information in his hand to the side, and immediately a magic apprentice not far away came up in an orderly manner to take the information, then stepped back and stood respectfully in his place.

In response to Fluder's question, Arche silently shook her head.

"No, respected Grand Mage, I know the content of the experiment. I need to be your apprentice and learn martial arts and the three existing systems of magic. I know all these things."

"Please rest assured. Before I came here, I had already learned the first-level magic knowledge of the Faith Department and the Spirit Department, and also conducted some warrior training. I will definitely not disgrace your reputation, Grand Mage, and join this experiment as an excellent apprentice."

Archue lowered her head at this time, and although her voice was calm, everyone could hear the suppressed tension and anxiety beneath it.

It was as if the experiment before her was the girl's last straw.

But in fact, that's how it seems to Arche herself.

After the turmoil in the empire not long ago, the fourteen-year-old emperor regained power and immediately began to deal with those nobles who once stood with his mother.

Although there was still a large number of nobles who were not dealt with, they were only asked by the emperor to stand up and survive.

But Aixue always felt that there must be more to the story. However, her parents still looked as arrogant as before when faced with this situation, and they insulted the Emperor from time to time.

Archue knew that this was wrong, but no matter how she tried to persuade her father, it was of no use.

Even her own father always used the family's history of more than a hundred years to scold her when she tried to persuade him.

She had no choice but to struggle and instinctively find a way out for herself.

When other noble students were dissatisfied with the need to learn other systems of magic knowledge and martial arts, thinking that this would stifle their future talents and thus chose to give up, she was the only choice!

But Arche knew very well that the magic academy did not only have aristocratic students. Compared to those aristocratic students who would consider their future, those students of common origin did not care about the so-called future.

There are not many of them who are talented, and they do not have abundant resources and backgrounds like the nobles. Compared with the future, they care more about the present.

Moreover, compared to being assigned to some idle positions after graduation due to lack of background, who dares to say that there is no future for being a magic apprentice of the Imperial Master?

So if they came, Arche had no doubt about their decision.

It’s just that because of the previous screening test, those people were not selected.

She must seize this opportunity to get this spot.

Moreover, she is the top student in theoretical knowledge of the first level in the current Magic Academy. There is no reason why the Archmage would give up on her!

Archue's heart was almost clenched into a ball. No matter how much she comforted herself, she still felt fear, the fear after failure.

Fluder looked at the girl in front of him at this moment, his eyes calm and he was not moved by the words she said, but continued to question her in a cold tone.

"From what you said, you seem to be very attentive, but my experiment does not require you to be attentive to join."

"I still have the same question. As a daughter of a noble family, why did you choose to accept so many conditions and join my experiment?"

At this moment, Fluder's gaze seemed to turn into two sharp swords piercing Arche's heart.

Under tremendous pressure, the girl opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when the words came to her lips, she still didn't have the courage to say them.

Fluder was not surprised at all by this, and even had the leisure to wait here slowly.

Just as Arche thought, as the controller of the Empire's Ministry of Magic, Fluder, who was eager to train magic casters who could communicate with him in the magic academy, how could he not know the situation in the magic academy?

This is also why when he first came up with the idea of selecting an apprentice, he did not think of looking for another genius like Cecilia, but rather looking for an upper-middle-level person as an apprentice to experiment with these things.

In addition to the possible problems with qualifications, magic power, and battle spirit conversion itself that need to be considered, another thing is that most of the top geniuses in the magic academy are actually aristocrats.

For the nobles, apart from their family, there is nothing that cannot be sold, even the empire.

Therefore, he did not intend to select those nobles at the beginning. In fact, those nobles would most likely not risk ruining their own future to join this experiment.

The nobles all understood the principles of specialization and mediocrity.

If the research yields any results, they will be shared with the empire. As members of the empire, the nobles will most likely also be able to obtain these results. So what reason is there to let their descendants get involved in this mess?

It would be better to let those peasants go. After all, they can be put to good use, right?

Fluder happened to think the same thing.

Fluder was well aware that he would most likely not stay in the empire, and he had even completed communication with some of his disciples.

Even His Highness Karko had returned to the Holy Kingdom and was making preparations for the reception there.

Is it possible that at this time, he is going to find an imperial noble to join the experiment, and then let him leak the matter, causing an uproar throughout the empire?

Fluder merely left the empire, but he did not wish for it to collapse.

At least a healthy empire can still retain a complete magic education system. No one knows what the rebuilt empire will become.

Even for Fluder and Karko, the leakage of magic conversion technology was nothing. Sooner or later, this thing would be seen by the public. It was just a matter of time.

This thing is just like the open source Android system. What Fluder and Karko need now is communication and a lot of experimental feedback.

But what Fluder really hated was that after the nobles got this thing, they did not spread it around, but instead held it tightly in their hands.

But how many nobles can there be? And how many commoners can there be?

Instead of this, he might as well leak the matter to Jill.

So he didn't think highly of the nobles at all, and even preferred the common people.

Even if the other party wants to resist, they will only tell the empire instead of the nobles.

It just fits in with his original plan.

But there seem to be some unexpected things happening right now.

Fluder looked at Arche and couldn't help but recall her family.

With a family heritage of more than one hundred years, this is no small noble family of the empire, which has only a history of about two hundred years.

In a sense, this was already considered a relatively upper-middle class noble. In addition, the girl in front of him was indeed quite talented, and even had the same natural abilities as himself...

Could it be Jill, or someone sent by those nobles?

Just as Fluder was thinking, the girl in front of him took a deep breath and spoke tremblingly.

"Respected Archmage, I...I...I am here for myself, or for my family."

As Fluder listened to the girl's words, he slowly stopped stroking his beard and did not interrupt her, allowing the girl to continue explaining in a disjointed manner.

"My family... accidentally stood on the opposite side of His Majesty in the previous incident. Although His Majesty let my family go, but..."

"But our family has no one to rely on. Although my parents don't care about this matter, I am always a little worried, so I want to... I want to take this opportunity..."

Archue couldn't say the rest of the words.

After all, at least the girl is not shameless enough to say in front of others that she is seeking refuge with them just to avoid disaster.

And she wasn’t entirely telling the truth, nor could she tell the truth.

Everyone knows that this great wizard has a particularly close relationship with the emperor. If she really said what her parents said in the manor, then even if their family was fine before, it would be in trouble now.

"So, Grand Mage, please rest assured that I will definitely do my best to cooperate with your magic experiment!"

Arche hastily reveals her worth to Fluder.

Because their family has problems, or something in it, she must be more serious than others in cooperating with this experiment.

Fluder watched Arche turn her original disadvantage into an advantage, and for a moment he felt a hint of admiration in his heart.

With his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that these words were improvised by the girl in front of him. It was a talent that she could achieve this at the age of only seven.

Fluder couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. He suddenly became interested.

"Then can you promise not to tell your parents or your family about the contents of this experiment?"

Hearing this question, Ai Xue nodded without hesitation.

"My parents don't understand magic, and they don't usually care about my achievements in this area."

Fluder nodded in disbelief.

In fact, he will send someone to investigate this matter later and will not completely believe the other party's words.

"Then can you endure only communicating with your family through letters for a long period of time from now on?"

Hearing this question, although it was a little difficult, Archue gritted her teeth and nodded firmly.

"No problem. If it is your request, Grand Mage, I will do it to cooperate with the experiment!"

Seeing this, Fluder nodded again, and then asked the most crucial question.

"Then, even if I ask you to betray your family and the empire, are you willing to do so?"

Arche froze in place for a moment and subconsciously looked up at Fluder. It was the first time she looked up since entering the Mage Tower.

Glancing over, she did not see any joking expression on the face of this old man who held the supreme position in the empire.

On the contrary, all she saw was seriousness and solemnity.

At this time, Aixue looked around belatedly.

At this time, there were people moving around in the Mage Tower. Most of the people here had heard about this incident, but they remained indifferent.

In a trance, the girl seemed to understand something, opened her mouth, and asked as if she was trying her best.

"Excuse me...Excuse me, can I bring...bring my family with me then?"

"As long as they're willing to join you."

The girl fell silent for a moment. She was terrified and wanted to refuse because her parents would definitely not give up the glory and wealth in the empire.

If she really left with the Archmage, then given her father's original character...

In a sense, she chose a dead end for her family.

But she didn't understand why the Grand Master of the Empire would want to betray the Empire?

What happened in the meantime?
