it turns out
The matter was settled and Elena wanted to leave.
"Todd, I'm sorry, I have to say goodbye to you. I still have a lot of things to deal with in my territory, so I'll go back first." Elena said with a smile.
Todd immediately greeted her with a smile: "Let me take you out."
Elena hummed, as if remembering something. "Oh, by the way, my birthday is on the 11th of the month after next. Are you free to come?"
"Of course I'm free," Todd agreed immediately. "I'll definitely be there to congratulate you."
Elena nodded. "I'd also like to invite Mr. Bunier. We haven't seen each other for a long time. If possible, I'd also like to invite you and your friends to play at my birthday party."
Mr. Bunier was Elena's musician neighbor when she stayed briefly in the royal capital. Todd met Elena through Mr. Bunier. They were in the same music circle, and Elena was even invited to their small concert.
"I believe they will be very happy." Todd's face was full of radiance. He knew that Elena was trying to save face for him and show the financial staff sent by the owner that she valued him as a friend.
Having a strong network of contacts can increase his value.
Only when there is value can there be respect.
Elena started walking towards the door. When she reached the door, she glanced at the Rainbow Dessert Shop next door. It was neither lunch time nor afternoon tea time, but there were still several tables of customers sitting in the dessert shop.
Elena thought for a moment and said, "Todd, starting tomorrow, prepare five afternoon teas every day, including drinks and desserts. The accounts will be paid from my dividends. I will treat my teacher and senior brothers to afternoon tea."
"Okay." Todd didn't say anything polite about paying from the public account, or asking him to pay to express his gratitude, because he planned to pay the money privately.
The respect and favor Elena gave him today far outweighed this small amount of money.
She treats him as a true friend, and he will return his sincerity.
"Which neighborhood should these five afternoon teas be delivered to?" Todd asked directly for the address.
Elena smiled, a little mischievously, and the ladylike airs she had been maintaining disappeared, and the girl's cunning suddenly emerged.
"No need to send it, someone will come and get it."
Todd nodded and asked, "What's the person's name? Or any sign or token? I'll tell the store manager so we don't send it to the wrong person."
Elena still didn't say anything. She blinked and said, "I'm not sure who is coming, but it must be someone from the Royal Magic Academy."
A question mark slowly appeared above Todd's head.
Is this possible?
Not sure who's coming?
After saying goodbye and leaving, Elena came to the Royal Magic Academy.
She thought about it and decided to go find Teacher Leopold first.
She wanted to give five sets of afternoon tea to the dean, three senior brothers, and Teacher Leopold. Among these five, only Teacher Leopold loved food the most. If she told him that there was an afternoon tea benefit, he would definitely be the happiest.
With her understanding of Teacher Leopold, Elena found him in the laboratory.
Teacher Leopold, with his hair sticking out like a bird's nest, looked annoyed. "What do you want from me?"
Elena didn't care and just took out a box from the space ring.
When I opened it, I saw a few braised chicken wings in the box, with red meat in a white bowl, plump and perfectly shaped, surrounded by reddish-brown shiny juice, and an enticing aroma wafted out.
Teacher Leopold's expression quickly improved at the speed of light: "Great, I'm starving."
As he spoke, his hand reached out for the braised chicken wings.
Elena smiled. Foodies are the easiest to appease. When he is in a bad mood, just serve him delicious food.
Leopold gnawed on the braised chicken wings.
Elena watched him eat quickly and advised him, "Teacher, delicious food should be enjoyed slowly. If you eat too fast, won't the enjoyment of the food be shortened?"
Leopold responded to her in his busy schedule: "I don't have time. If I had time, I would go directly to your place for dinner."
Do you think he doesn't want to eat slowly?
Time doesn't allow it!
He still has to rush to do experiments. If time permits, will he still stay in the laboratory to fill the nutrient solution?
He had already gone to the Viscount's Mansion for dinner.
Elena held her chin with one hand and tilted her head: "Teacher, I have ordered a long-term afternoon tea package for you at Rainbow Dessert Shop, which includes drinks and desserts."
Hmm? Leopold stopped chewing.
"Afternoon tea set?"
"Yes." Elena nodded. "I happened to be there today to discuss something. Seeing that the store's business has been on the right track and getting better and better recently, I decided to order afternoon tea for you. From now on, you, the dean, and the three brothers will all have afternoon tea."
Leopold licked the marinade on the side of his mouth: "Okay, thank you."
Elena smiled faintly: "You're welcome, it's just a small matter. However, since the dessert shop is in the royal capital, it would take too long for the staff to deliver it. So I thought it would be better for you to arrange for someone to go and get the afternoon tea, so as not to waste time."
The long delivery time was just an excuse. Elena's real idea was to use the situation to establish her own authority. If outsiders knew that the archmage of the Royal Magic Academy, or even the dean, was a frequent customer of the Rainbow Dessert Shop and loved its desserts, then who would dare to mess around?
Elena only wants to make money and doesn't want to get involved in other people's calculations.
Taking advantage of the situation can make people afraid to act rashly, saving time, effort and worry. What a good thing.
However, the change of partner in Rainbow Dessert Shop did remind Elena from another perspective.
It’s not okay to just focus on making money.
As her business empire grows and generates more and more wealth, more people will notice her and want to get a piece of her pie.
Although outsiders knew that Leonard was her friend, and although they would have some reservations, after hearing the conversation between Harun and his trusted subordinates in the destiny prediction, Elena still had a knot in her heart.
It is not enough for her to just be a friend to Leonard, especially when they are a man and a woman. This kind of relationship will inevitably make outsiders look down on her and think that she is a dodder that depends on Leonard for her existence.
Dodder has no power. Once the tree leaves the dodder, death is the inevitable end of the dodder.
But if outsiders knew that she was still the dean's student and they had a formal teacher-student relationship, then their evaluation of her would be different.
The thought of moving up arose in Elena's mind again, and this thought was even a little urgent.
She must have her own strength. People without strength are not protected, especially since she is a girl, an underage girl, who is too easy to become a prey in the eyes of outsiders.
Strength is the foundation of life.
After hearing Elena's suggestion, Leopold nodded readily: "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to pick up the food." It's just a small matter, no problem.
The thing that the Royal Magic Academy has the most is wizards, especially student wizards, of which there are a lot. As the archmage, Leopold has many student wizards who can work for him. You can just order one of them to pick up the food.
As soon as he finished speaking, a look of sudden enlightenment suddenly appeared on Leopold's face.
Elena:???
Leopold looked at her with a gleaming gaze. "Now that you've reminded me, I can arrange for someone to pick up the food from your place. This way, I don't have to feed you the nutrient solution."
Elena: "Uh, that's right."
After thinking for a moment, Elena said, "I can prepare easy-to-eat meals for you, such as buns, fried cakes, hamburgers, wraps, and pizza, so that you can eat them easily even if you are in a hurry."
Leopold slammed the table: "Yes, that's it!"
The next day, at three o'clock in the afternoon.
Todd sat in a corner of the Rainbow Dessert Shop, anxiously waiting for someone to come and pick up their afternoon tea.
Who could it be?
Why did Elena say that she didn't know who would come?
As another five minutes passed, Todd changed his sitting position.
The shop door opened and the bell hanging on the door rang.
"Welcome." The clerk greeted the customer with a business smile.
The person who came in was a student wearing the Royal Magic Academy uniform. When he saw the clerk coming towards him, he said directly, "I'm here to pick up five afternoon tea sets. I've already ordered them in advance. The name on the order should be Archmage Leopold."
Well, that should be the case. The student was not quite sure. It was indeed Teacher Leopold who asked him to come and pick it up, but it was for five people, including the dean and three other great wizards. He didn't know whose name was written on the order.
Perhaps it was Archmage Ansiel? Or Archmage Sidney? Or Archmage Dewitt?
It can't be the dean's name.
The students felt increasingly insecure.
Archmage! The clerk was shocked and subconsciously looked at the store manager.
"Manager, has a great wizard ordered five afternoon tea sets?" asked the clerk.
The store manager frowned. There were five afternoon tea sets, but Miss Viscount Field didn't tell the guests' names.
The store manager looked at one of the owners, Mr. Todd.
Todd thought for a moment and walked towards the customer: "Hello, customer, I am the owner of this store."
Student: “Hello.”
Todd said, "Someone did place an order for five long-term afternoon tea packages yesterday. The person who placed the order was Miss Viscount Field. I wonder if you know her?"
The student frowned slightly. "Miss Viscount Field? I'm not sure if I know her. Could you tell me her name?"
"Her name is Elena," Todd said.
"Ah, it's this lady." The student's frown relaxed and a smile appeared on his face. "That's right, she is a student of my teacher, Master Leopold."
A student of Master Leopold?
Todd was confused. Didn't Elena say that she was taking classes in the territory?
It's impossible for a great wizard to lower his status and become a tutor for a viscount.
Although he thought it was impossible, Todd still asked carefully to be sure: "Elena is only a viscount. She said that she received family education in the territory, not at the Royal Magic Academy."
The student smiled and nodded. "Yes, Archmage Leopold is here to teach the class himself. Besides Archmage Leopold, Archmage Ansel is also here."
There is also a great wizard!
Two great wizards serve as Elena's tutors!
Todd found this information too much for him to bear. No prince of the empire could possibly receive such treatment. How could Elena be so highly regarded by the Grand Master?
"Ms. Elena's identity is very special. She is actually the dean's student. Archmage Leopold and Archmage Ansel are just teaching on her behalf." The student dropped another big bomb.
Todd was knocked unconscious.
Elena is actually the dean’s student!
A student of Carlo Pillar!
