Chapter 211 Prince Seleu's Thoughts
Harris quietly looked at the prince who was immersed in his own thoughts.
Ever since escaping from Cecilia, the prince has lived only for hatred, his whole body is like a fully drawn bow, always tense.
And now, he is relaxed, calm and happy, as if he has returned to his childhood, his whole body filled with happiness and joy.
"Prince, who is that person?" Harris asked involuntarily. There were ten magic apprentices who had just passed by, and he didn't know which one had transformed the prince.
"I'll tell you once I'm sure." Selyu suppressed his extraneous emotions, opened his deep black eyes, and regained his usual calm demeanor. "By the way, do you have any news about my sister?"
"Princess Cecil?" Harris sighed. "I got the news this morning that she went to the Pros Empire."
Seryu lightly clenched his fist and asked, "She still doesn't want to see me now?"
It has been eighteen years since he and his sister were separated.
Ten years ago, after receiving the news that she was still alive, he wanted to meet his sister, but his sister refused.
Harris comforted: "Cecil has her concerns."
Seryu smiled bitterly: "She's just afraid that I'll get her into trouble."
Although he is a high-level magician and a mid-level greatswordsman, he has never left the courtyard to adventure elsewhere on the continent.
It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't.
He could only survive until now because of the protection of the God of Law. Once he leaves the atrium, the wanted order issued by the Cecilia Kingdom will be activated, and he will be hunted down by the Black Knights again.
On the other hand, his sister is more capable than him. She put aside her dignity as a princess, disguised herself as a commoner and mingled with the crowd. She cleverly avoided the wanted order and traveled around the world. Over the years, she has been accumulating wealth and persuading various forces in preparation for revenge.
Harris advised: "The prince is worrying too much. The princess would never think so."
Seleu suppressed his frustration and looked up at the blue sky. "I know, I just miss you too much."
Half a month ago, he asked the God of Law when he could embark on the road of revenge.
The God of Law looked at him with a pair of wise eyes and replied meaningfully: "When you meet the right person, you will understand."
At that time, he didn't think anyone could influence him, but today, he found that the words of the God of Law were correct.
As to whether the black-haired boy is the right person, it remains to be verified.
Seleu took out a box of herbs from his storage ring and handed it to Harris. "This is for you."
Harris looked down at the box handed to him and asked in confusion, "Prince, what is this?"
Seryu said, "Didn't you say last month that you wanted to buy some Star Spirit Grass to make potions? The day before yesterday, I went to the auction house and found one, so I bought it."
Harris was surprised: "How much did it cost?"
Star Spirit Grass is a rare herb that only grows in the Fairy Forest and is hard to come by. Those that appear in mainland auction houses are generally of unknown origin.
However, for some unknown reason, some herbs from the Fairy Forest have frequently appeared at auction houses in the past decade, attracting frantic bidding from buyers.
The Star Spirit Grass that the prince bought for him must be worth a lot of money.
"Don't worry about money." Seleu's hand gently pressed the sword at his waist. "The money I won in the arena is enough for you and me to spend."
"Prince..." Harris couldn't help choking.
When they first arrived in the Central Courtyard, despite the protection of the God of Law, they still had to rely on themselves for survival. At that time, he was seriously injured and unable to earn money for a long time. It was the fourteen-year-old prince who saved up money bit by bit by completing tasks to buy medicine for him.
Later, the prince learned magic and swordsmanship and fought in the arena to make money.
When Harris first learned that the prince was going to the arena, he strongly objected.
However, the prince said to him, "The arena can both make money and quickly improve your strength. Why give up on something that kills two birds with one stone? Harris, I know my limits and won't joke with my life."
Harris looked at the determined young man and sighed in his heart.
The prince grew up.
From then on, Seleucus frequently competed in the arena, and as his level increased, his opponents became stronger and stronger, and the prize money doubled.
Seryu pressed the box into his hands. "You go ahead and do your work. I'm going to work."
Harris took the box and bowed respectfully to him.
Seleu stood under the tree and watched him leave until he could no longer see his figure, then he walked towards the teaching building.
"Wow, this is the Kotlin Temple?"
In front of the magnificent building stood a row of young magic apprentices, all with their heads tilted upwards, curiously gazing at the temple where daily tasks were issued.
"I told you, you'll be right if you follow me." Siti said proudly.
After leaving the gate of the Magic Academy, Kumandi wanted to buy a map at a nearby shop. Siti waved her hand and said that she knew how to get to the Kotlin Temple.
After being in the atrium for half a month, she has already visited all the streets and alleys. Everyone follows her to ensure that they reach their destination as quickly as possible.
"It saves me money on maps." She blinked her beautiful blue eyes.
Kumandi, who had originally insisted on buying a map, decisively gave up.
Siti was indeed a living map. She brought them to the Kotlin Temple as quickly as possible and with the least amount of money.
"Let's go in." Shu Li took the lead and stepped onto the stairs, followed by the others.
The lobby of the Kotlin Temple was crowded with people who came to accept tasks, most of them were magic apprentices and trainee magicians, and a few were magicians.
The Light Team had just arrived and was completely confused and had no idea about the process of accepting missions.
Fortunately, there is an information desk in the lobby. Newcomers need to register their information and receive a task card before taking on a task.
"New students at Saint Villiers School of Magic?" The staff at the registration office looked at the ten magic apprentices lined up in surprise.
"Yes." Shu Li, who was standing in the first position, answered honestly, "I have the magic instructor's permission certificate here."
After dinner yesterday, Zephir gave them a note with his signature and seal. With this certificate, Team Light could leave the Magic Academy without any problems.
The staff member took the paper and saw that the signature was Zephir Reid. He was stunned for a moment, but did not ask any more questions and issued a task card for them.
The Light Team that successfully obtains the mission card will go to different windows to accept the mission according to the attributes of their own magic.
Angel of the light element and Kumandi of the wind element teamed up and took on the errand task.
Budno, who is of the water element, and Amanda, who has both water and light elements, accepted the task of watering the flowers in the city.
The fire-type members Discio, Nasha, and Siti, along with the earth-type member Hector, went to the garbage disposal site.
Shu Li from the Seventh Element and Ace from the Wind Element took on the task of cleaning up ten streets.
Stepping out of the gate of Kotlin Temple, Shu Li raised his fist and shouted excitedly: "Team Light, let's go!"
"Set off!"
Except for Kumandi and Ace, everyone else followed suit and pumped their fists.
Everyone who passed by them smiled playfully.
It’s great to be young and full of energy. It’s my first time doing a task and I don’t feel the boredom of the process yet.
Ten people, walking in four directions.
Shu Li held a map of the atrium in her hand and walked side by side with Ace to the first street that needed to be cleaned.
The Kotlin Temple was really nice, giving each person a free map, which saved them a lot of money.
The first street is nearby, just a five-minute walk away.
First, they have to hand over the work to the street leader, receive a garbage truck, and send it to the garbage substation after it is full. Someone from the substation will make a special trip to send it to the main garbage station for processing.
After Shu Li understood the process, he was deeply impressed by Danlov's management skills. With him in charge, the courtyard would prosper for thousands of years without any problem.
After receiving the garbage truck, he said to Ace, "Let's get started!"
He was very familiar with using magic to clean up garbage. The little elves living in the sacred tree had to participate in the cleaning work every week. Sometimes, if they made a small mistake, they would be punished by cleaning branches covered with bird droppings.
There is no way. The sacred tree is too big and the biosphere is complete. In addition to fairies, there are many other creatures living there, such as birds, snakes, insects, small climbing animals, etc.
Shu Li raised his magic wand and chanted a wind magic spell. When the spell ended, two small whirlwinds appeared on the street, like rollers, sweeping away the dust and garbage on the ground.
When the garbage in the tornado became more and more, he waved his magic wand, and the tornado "spit" the garbage into the garbage truck and finally disappeared.
"How is it?" Shu Li turned to ask Ace.
Ace clapped his hands in approval, "Excellent."
Shu Li raised his chin and chuckled, "Of course, I'm our...village's cleaning expert."
As a seventh-level magician, you need to provide a one-stop service for cleaning, washing and garbage disposal, so you don't need to be too skilled.
Ace smiled: "Looks like I have to work harder."
He raised his magic wand and cast wind magic at the uncleaned section of road. Four small whirlwinds worked at the same time, shooting left and right, and leaving everything clean wherever they passed.
"Wow, that's awesome!" Shu Li gave him a thumbs up and, not wanting to be outdone, joined the cleaning.
After sweeping one street, the two men sent a garbage truck and then continued to clean the second street. They were fast and efficient and completed the task in just one hour.
The station manager in charge of collecting garbage was secretly shocked when he saw them sending a truck full of garbage every ten minutes.
The students who are qualified to study at the Saint Villiers School of Magic, except for a few from commoner families who can do rough, heavy and dirty work, the others are basically pampered young masters. The task of cleaning ten streets cannot be completed in one day, or even two days.
The two freshmen in front of him had outstanding looks and great temperament. They were obviously young masters of the nobility. He was looking forward to the show.
Unexpectedly, they completed the task in just one hour.
The administrator didn't believe it, so he cast a wind-type flying spell and checked around ten streets.
He had been on the job for three years, and this was the first time he had seen a magic apprentice clean the streets spotlessly clean, even the bricks on the pedestrian street had been washed clean to a gleaming shine.
"You did a great job." The administrator took the task card and injected magic power into it. In an instant, the light representing the highest degree of task completion lit up.
"Thank you for the compliment." Shu Li took the task card back, happily took Ace's hand, and ran towards the Kotlin Temple.
"Let's go and hand in the task."
The reward for cleaning a street is two gold coins, and twenty gold coins for cleaning ten streets. If the two people split it equally, each person can get ten gold coins.
Earning ten gold coins in an hour is not bad!
Ace glanced down at his wrist that was being held, but did not struggle, letting him hold it. It was not until they rushed into the gate of the Kotlin Temple that Shu Lifang let go of his hand.
"After we complete the mission, let's take on another twenty streets!" Shu Li put his hand on Ace's shoulder and whispered in his ear.
"Okay." Ace nodded without objection.
Shu Li stared at his perfect profile with sparkling eyes. "You have such a good temper. You don't even contradict me."
From the time they met until now, he had discovered that no matter what he said, Ace would support him unconditionally.
"I can't think of a reason to object." Ace tilted his head slightly, his green eyes meeting his gently.
"That's right." Shu Li grinned. "It's a good opportunity to make money. There's no reason to object."
The two squeezed through the crowd, found the window for handing over the task, and successfully received twenty gold coins, plus five rewards for excellent reviews.
"Great!" Shu Li divided the gold coins on the spot, with each of them taking twelve, and the remaining one was confiscated.
Afterwards, they took on the cleaning work of another twenty streets and were very busy.
The atmosphere in the principal's office of the magic academy was solemn, with three imposing magicians sitting on three sofas.
Principal Gabriel Muse, Zephyr Reid, and an expressionless middle-aged man were in a three-way confrontation, refusing to give in to any of them.
After a while, Zephir said lazily, "There's no need to make a big fuss over just a joke between the younger generation, right?"
The middle-aged man sneered when he heard this: "Playing around? That's easy for you to say. The one who got frustrated isn't your nephew, so of course it doesn't hurt."
Zephir spread his hands and asked, "So, Fritton, what do you want?"
The middle-aged man named Fritton had a cold look in his eyes. "Send those magic apprentices back to where they came from."
Hearing this, Gabriel frowned and refused: "That's impossible!"
Fritton said arrogantly, "That's all I ask."
Zephir sneered and said, "Fritton, you have to understand that this is the magic academy, not your place of dictatorship."
