I'm really not a top magician

Ai Ge no longer knew what to say.

It’s not that I want to lie, but when I tell the truth, no one believes me!

And Weber once again proved to Aika Satiao that Aika Satiao did not need strength.

It's not her fault, it's the world's fault!

"Aige, let me ask you something secretly, what is your current rank?"

Weber couldn't resist his curiosity and asked.

After all, among the ten unsolved cases in the Clock Tower today, one is what rank Aika Sajo is.

It must be said that Weber is very confident in his ability to analyze magic.

For this, he bet on the rank of Aika Sado and even bet all his pocket money for this month, just to make a profit and get funds for the next magic research.

Perhaps because she was quite angry with Weber, Ai Ge couldn't help but smile wickedly when she heard his question, and then immediately said mysteriously:

"I didn't intend to tell anyone about my rank."

"You should know that I've only been in the Clock Tower for a short time. Even though I'm in Teacher Kenneth's classroom, the other monarchs are interested in winning me over. Exposing my rank casually could be detrimental to me."

"But since you're my friend, I'll tell you. But don't tell anyone else, okay?"

Ai Ge leaned close to Weber's ear and pretended to be mysterious.

Weber nodded immediately, and said with a righteous look on his face, "Ai Ge, I'm famous for keeping my mouth shut. Don't tell anyone else, even if my dad asks me, I won't tell anyone even if you kill me!"

"Okay! Actually, I'm not far from the position of pian."

Anyway, to be honest, if you don't believe it, then don't blame Aika Satiao for making it up.

As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, Waver was stunned.

"Dian...dian...dian bit?"

Weber was completely stunned.

The so-called training of a magician is extremely difficult. Even for the best lecturer, it is a remarkable thing to train a student who can reach the level of a magician.

Even Mr. Kenneth, once known as the prodigy of the Clock Tower—now the Lord of El-Melloi—was promoted to the rank of Dean in his early twenties.

It is easy to imagine how difficult it is to become a pianwei before the age of twenty.

Unexpectedly,

Sajo Aika is only fourteen years old and is about to reach the rank of nobility.

This talent...is simply too amazing!

Is this the strength of the Clock Tower’s number one genius?

Looking at the shocked Waver, Sajo Aika felt relieved. She stood on tiptoe, patted Waver's head, and said with a soothing smile:

"Weber, don't lose heart. As the saying goes, God rewards hard work, and diligence can make up for lack of talent. As long as you practice diligently, you will definitely go further and further on the path of magic. Do you understand?"

"I see!"

Weber said this in a very serious tone, but for some reason, he felt a little strange when Aige touched his head with a smile.

My heartbeat seems to be speeding up a bit...

Just because he was hit hard, Weber didn't think much about it.

However, Ai Ge was keenly aware of his emotions and was in a very happy mood.

This was the first time she felt happy after showing off.

We will take this absurd reality,

Call it the world,

And we who are addicted to this absurd reality,

It is this absurdity itself,

Hopeless!

Chapter 7: Nelandriel Workshop

Just now, Weber learned his first lesson in human behavior.

You feel bad when your friends are bad;

Your friend is awesome, and you feel even worse.

Although the question about rank was raised by Waver,

Even though he had anticipated this situation, Weber still felt a little uncomfortable.

Do you even regret asking such a question that makes you uncomfortable?

Webber Velvet is a proud and arrogant guy.

Despise classmates,

Despise the teacher,

Even despise the entire clock tower,

Those lecturers who do not recognize their own talents, since they have the talents to serve as lecturers, cannot fail to understand the excellence of Weber's theory.

wrong!

Those people were jealous because they knew him. They were afraid of his hidden talent, so they were jealous of him, and so they rudely excluded him. Excluding a scholar like me who was constantly studying the ways of magic in public—was that really the attitude a scholar should have?

Can't forgive,

It is so unfair that my talent, which could shock the whole world, was wiped out because of the idiotic behavior of this mob.

But even if I comfort myself with this view, every time I see the song of Sajo Aika,

Weber was still a little shaken.

Because Weber clearly understood one fact:

Sajo Aika is a genius.

Compared to Aika Sajo, Weber's talent is nothing.

But to be precise, Weber, who was a genius, was always unable to show outsiders that he was a bit more talented than others.

Therefore, such external publicity became his only self-consolation.

Thinking of this, Weber suddenly felt a little annoyed, but he also knew very well that he couldn't get angry at Sajo Aika - his friend.

"Hey……"

Weber sighed helplessly, suppressed the anger in his heart, and changed the subject: "Ai Ge, have you heard of the Holy Lake?"

"The one where King Arthur obtained the holy sword (Excalibur)?" asked Aika Sajo tentatively.

After all, as a foreigner and a student who always stayed in the clock tower to study hard, her knowledge of places in Great Britain, apart from the world-famous legend of King Arthur, was limited to the buildings around the dormitory and the clock tower.

"Hmm..." Weber nodded and continued, "Legend has it that King Arthur slew the rebellious knight Mordred on Camlann Hill, but he was also seriously injured after losing his scabbard. Finally, King Arthur arranged for the knight Bedivere to throw the holy sword back into the lake. And this lake became known as the Holy Lake."

Aika Sajo nodded. Having watched the Fate series, she was quite familiar with this story. However, there was a sequel to this story. Artoria (King Arthur) wanted to participate in the four stations in an attempt to obtain the Holy Grail to change history.

However, if Weber knew that King Arthur and Mordred were both women, he would definitely feel disillusioned.

Shajo Aige looked at Weber and asked, "So why did you mention the Holy Lake?"

"Something big happened there recently." Weber said, handing over the newspaper that had just been printed today.

Sha Tiao Aige took it skillfully and saw the front page of the newspaper read:

——The deadly lightning strikes again!

"Just five years ago, the head of the Galadriel family bought a piece of wilderness, which is the remains of ancient Britain, or the remains of the Holy Lake." Weber pointed to the front page of the newspaper and gave a brief introduction.

"Nelantir Workshop?" Shajo Aige recalled. "I heard they turned the entire wilderness into a magic workshop. In terms of magical power, it's even comparable to the legendary temple."

"That's right." Waver nodded, his finger tapping the front page again. "But the Nelandriel workshop went out of control. The magic went haywire, causing anomalies in the area. Due to the successive lightning strikes, not only did the magicians in the family die, but even more than a dozen people in the surrounding area died. The last person to die was the head of the Nelandriel family himself."

"Someone died?" Sajo Aika said in surprise. "The Clock Tower should take this matter very seriously. After all, according to the principle that magic cannot be leaked, if magic involves ordinary people, or there is a risk of exposing the magic, the Clock Tower will take action quickly."

"The Clock Tower has already sent people there." Waver suddenly lowered his voice, as if not wanting others to hear. "But strangely, every magus sent there has either mysteriously disappeared or been killed by lightning like everyone else. I heard that so far, over ten magi have died in the Law and Politics Department."

"However, the most troublesome thing about this incident was for ordinary people. Initially, the media simply reported it as abnormal weather, even bringing up issues such as environmental protection. Although the Clock Tower secretly provided various guidance, the incident did not initially cause much of a stir. After all, while one or two people being killed by lightning is unusual, it is not exactly miraculous news. The Clock Tower did not care much about the matter, simply notifying Chief Nelandriel to handle it properly."

"But with the Nelandril Workshop losing control, lightning-induced deaths became frequent, with five people even dying in a row. Even ordinary people noticed something was amiss in the Holy Lake area, and surrounding residents panicked and even moved away. Many media outlets also realized this situation was no longer simply abnormal weather, and began reporting on it."

"You know what happened next. To prevent the magic from being leaked, the Clock Tower was very eager to deal with this matter. However, the situation seems to be a little out of control now, and many talented instructors are afraid to go."

Sajo Aika nodded, agreeing with Waver's statement.

Although Weber does not have much talent in magic, he does have very strong logical thinking when it comes to analyzing and deconstructing events.

Such a powerful mind is also the main source of such unorthodox ideas.

But as far as this matter is concerned, not many magicians dare to go there.

A magic workshop that is comparable to a temple in terms of strength, when it loses control, is no longer something that ordinary magicians can handle.

"It's quite ironic, though," Sajo Aika sneered. "As a magus, being killed by his own magic is foolish, no matter how you look at it. A magus who can't even control his own power is ultimately just a vassal of that power. But... you're not just bringing this up to me for a chat, right?"

Weber nodded. "I suspect the Legal Affairs Department will invite you to handle this matter soon."

"Why? Am I such a loser?" Shatiao Aige blurted out.

"..."

Weber's eyes twitched. If you're considered a dish, then the rest of us are trash.

"Because in the Clock Tower, you are the only magician who can control the weather. Whether it's magic system or strength, you are the best candidate at the moment."

No, I'm really a foodie.

Although she really wanted to say that, Sajo Aika knew no one would believe her, so she just waved her hand and said, "We'll talk about it later."

Sajo Aige stood up and gathered the books she wanted: "Let's go."

"Walk slowly."

Weber didn't leave immediately because of his paper. Sajo Aige walked out of the library. But as soon as she left the library, she ran into Teacher Kenneth.

"Shatiao, I have something to talk to you about. Come here."

Teacher Kenneth's voice reached Sajo Aika's ears.

She suddenly felt a sense of uneasiness.

"I can't be that unlucky!" Saitiao Aige said in grief and anger.

However, Shajo Aige didn't know that in the darkness, two pairs of eyes were actually staring at this place.

Chapter 8 Existence Beyond Dimensions

In the shadows, the two watched as Aika Sajo was taken away by Kenneth El-Melloi.

"How is she?" a female voice sounded.

"Excellent," another man said, his voice sounding a bit frivolous. "But, still too young."

The woman nodded. Although she hated this snake-like man, she still agreed with this statement.

A genius who has not yet grown up is just a "genius".

"The Age of Gods is fading, the Phantasma are retreating to the inner world, and the fading of magic is inevitable. We must continue with the plan, Polleman. We need Sajo Aika now. The leader says her body is very special. According to intelligence, she can manipulate the weather at will because she is connected to the Root."

"She reached the source?" Fareus frowned immediately.

The girl shook her head and explained, "It's just a connection. I've been observing her for some time. My Mystic Eyes can easily see through the other party's magic structure. Even the magic of the monarchs of the Clock Tower, although it is a great burden, I can still see through some of it. But when I stared at Sajo Aika, there was no reaction at all."

"No reaction at all?" Fareus was surprised. "She is an ordinary person?"

The woman shook her head. "No, but that's the strangest thing. When I observe other monarchs with my magic eyes, I can clearly feel a huge pressure, a force that seems to be squeezing my magic circuits and brain."

"But Satiao Aige didn't feel anything. I even started to doubt whether the person I saw was really Satiao Aige."

"But the near-miraculous visions she constantly emanated from me constantly reminded me that she was absolutely, absolutely an extremely powerful magician. This contrast always puzzled me, but later, I understood!"

"Understand what?" Fareus asked curiously.

"I can't see through Aika Sajo, simply because there is some kind of dimensional gap between her and me, just like the existence of the two-dimensional world cannot interfere with the existence of the three-dimensional world. Aika Sajo, this guy, is already above a dimension higher than everyone else. This is why I believe that Aika Sajo is connected to the root." said the woman.
