"Haha, welcome, welcome. Choosing the necromancy major was the correct decision!" Gene hurriedly stood up with a chuckle when he saw the young students heading their way. He took out a few small booklets and handed one to each of them. He smiled, "Fill in your information. Heh heh, our necromancy major doesn't have that many rules and the tuition is the lowest."
These youths had obviously come because of Han Shuo's fame. When they heard this, all of them excitedly leaned on the table and filled in their information.
There were a few youths that had been pacing back and forth in the distance. They didn't seem to be with this group of people, but their goals were the same. They were also searching for the necromancy major's location. When they heard the shouts, all of their expressions shook and they also walked towards the necromancy major's corner.
"Hey, Carlisle, your mental strength is excellent and your affinity with the dark element is also extremely high. As long as you're willing to practice dark magic, you'll definitely become a dark grand magus. Don't leave, our dark major has many benefits for students like you." A dark major teacher hastily shouted when he saw a youth walking towards the necromancy major's corner.
"My apologies, I came because I thought that the dark major and necromancy major were together. I didn't think that the necromancy major could recruit its own students. My apologies, I came because I want to become a grand magus necromancy like Marquis Brian, not because of your dark major!" This youth was able to know of Marquis Han Shuo's identity so quickly. His family background was definitely not simple. He responded in a manner that was neither overbearing nor servile, performed a standard bow, and strode away from the dark major recruitment point without a trace of hesitation.
Dark archmage Deo, who was sitting at the back of the dark major's seat, gradually had an ugly expression on his face. Carlisle was a student that he had his eye on for a long time. When Carlisle had first entered the Babylon Academy to take the test, Deo had immediately determined that Carlisle was good material for practicing dark magic.
In order to get Carlisle, Deo had even sent a few teachers to persuade him. Carlisle had also shown great enthusiasm at the beginning and had been very happy all along. Who knew that at the last moment, Carlisle would directly walk towards the necromancy major without even looking back. He even said that the reason he had been friendly with them was purely because he had misunderstood the relationship between the dark major and necromancy major. This was simply a slap to Deo's face.
"Isn't it just a lowly slave who got lucky? What's so great about that? Hmph." The dark major teacher who had been rejected by Carlisle couldn't help but snort angrily, trying to vent the resentment in his heart through this method.
"Deo, isn't the necromancy major subordinate to the dark major? No matter how I look at the situation, it seems that the necromancy major is faintly suppressing the dark major. I didn't think that after I wasn't in the dark major for so long, you wouldn't have made any progress. You actually managed the dark major to this extent? " Beside Deo, a tall and skinny middle-aged magus frowned as he berated the person in charge of the dark major.
"Crowley, although you've become a dark grand magus, you've always been away from the Lancelot Empire. You used to be very famous, but the youngsters who know of you have long since disappeared. However, this Brian has recently been like the sun at high noon. In the hearts of the young children of the Empire, he is the true hero. Your era has passed. "Deo shot a glance at the middle-aged magus and replied with a bitter smile.
Crowley was once from the dark major of the Babylon Academy of Magic and Force just like Deo. Back then when Crowley was in the dark major, the dark major dominated the competitions between the various majors in the Academy for a few consecutive years. This person had advanced to an adept mage and became a dark archmage very soon after graduating, causing a sensation in the Lancelot Empire for a few years.
However, Crowley had been unable to break through to become an archmage. Not long after, he left the Lancelot Empire and traveled to various countries on the Profound Continent. It was only a few years ago that he became a dark grand magus. Deo was in the same batch as him back then, but he clearly didn't have as much talent as Crowley. Up until now, he was still a dark archmage. This time, it was only because he heard that Crowley had returned to the Lancelot Empire that he invited him over to support him.
It was a pity that Crowley had left the Lancelot Empire for too long. Even some of the elderly had forgotten his existence, not to mention the young students who worshipped him as a hero. He had been standing there for so long, and although Deo had deliberately introduced him, no one had noticed him.
"Deo, that kid called Brian, has he really become a grand magus necromancer in such a short period of time?" Mages that practiced dark magic would naturally have a sinister aura lingering around their bodies. Candide, one of the three heavyweights of the Dark Mantle, was like this. This grand magus Crowley was also the same. He looked at Deo with a gloomy expression that would definitely cause an average person to feel some fear.
When Deo heard Crowley's question, although he was extremely unwilling to admit it, there was nothing he could say. He could only force a smile and nod as he replied, "That kid is a monster. He really did become a grand magus necromancer in such a short period of time. What's even more frightening is that he basically didn't stay in the necromancy major for too long. He only appeared once or twice during crucial moments. Nobody knows how he actually trained."
"So it's like this. Hehe, it's really somewhat interesting. It's a pity that this person isn't here. Otherwise, I would really like to meet him. I've been forgotten by the people of Lancelot Empire for far too long. I really need to find an expert to practice my skills. Only then will more people know that I've returned. "Crowley muttered to himself with a pensive expression.
Deo glanced at Crowley and instigated, "That's right, Crowley. Right now, that kid's reputation is like a rainbow in the Lancelot Empire. If you want to make a name for yourself, defeating him will be the fastest way. Hehe, you really can try. That kid has just advanced to grand magus necromancer. I think he definitely isn't your match."
Deo and Crowley were in the same year. Deo was very clear about Crowley's personality. He knew what Crowley was thinking with a single look at his expression and couldn't help but instigate Crowley. Back when Crowley was in the dark major, he was also a well-known arrogant character. Even after so many years, Crowley's temperament hadn't changed. Deo could see this.
"It's a pity that that kid didn't come today. Otherwise, I could take advantage of this opportunity to kill his spirit!" Deo's suggestion was exactly what Crowley wanted. He had absolute confidence in his own strength and couldn't help but become restless.
While the dark major was muttering, the teachers of the other major were also silently cursing. This was especially true for the light major. At this moment, the person in charge of the light major, archmage Voigtlander, also had a deflated expression as he angrily shouted, "What's going on!! Lika is so close to the light element, yet she actually went to the hostile necromancy major. Could it be that she doesn't know that the light major has the best future for her? How could a dark creature like the necromancy major be a match for light magic? This is simply preposterous! "
Behind the light major's seat, sat a familiar figure to Han Shuo — one of the three heavyweights of the Dark Mantle, light grand magus Amyes. At this moment, Amyes was sipping on a pot of good tea, leisurely sitting there and looking at Voigtlander with a smile. He didn't express any opinion.
Behind Amyes, there were two swordsmen protecting him. The two were doing their best to protect Amyes and didn't pay attention to Voigtlander's words. In their eyes, Amyes' safety was the most important.
Voigtlander angrily grumbled, before turning to Amyes who was invited over. "Lord Amyes, don't you think this matter is preposterous? A small necromancy major, actually snatched our light major's student source because of a little errand boy's luck. "
Amyes had originally graduated from the light major and had become a minister of the current Lancelot Empire who wielded great power. In the eyes of any noble in the Lancelot Empire, Amyes was a god of plague that everyone feared. Once Amyes set his sights on a noble, that noble would definitely suffer a great misfortune.
However, to Amyes, although he didn't have a good impression of Voigtlander who was two realms younger than him, he still had some feelings for the light major. Therefore, after receiving Voigtlander's invitation, Amyes did the honor of coming over. Now that he heard Voigtlander's complaints, Amyes only smiled slightly and said elegantly, "Brian is a marquis of the Empire and is highly regarded by His Majesty. You better be careful with your words."
Han Shuo was a member of the Dark Mantle. Voigtlander didn't know this and rashly ridiculed Han Shuo in front of Amyes. Hearing Amyes' words, Voigtlander looked at Amyes with some astonishment, not understanding why a person like Amyes would speak up for Han Shuo.
"Hehe, you better busy yourself with your own matters. Those students who enter the necromancy major all do so out of blind worship of heroes. After a few days, when they discover that they aren't suitable to practice necromancy magic, I believe they will still recognize the truth and return to the light major. You don't have to worry so much. "As a member of the upper echelon of the Dark Mantle, Amyes could see through the crux of the matter with a single glance and couldn't help but console Voigtlander.
"I, I just can't take this lying down!" Voigtlander thought for a moment and understood that Amyes' words were reasonable. However, he still angrily shouted in a low voice.
Amyes shot an obscure disdainful glance at Voigtlander. In his heart, he thought that the current Brian wasn't someone a mere light major teacher could contend against. After thinking for a moment, Amyes reminded Voigtlander out of consideration for his relationship with the light major, "Voigtlander, I'll give you a word of advice. This Brian isn't someone you can provoke. Even if you can't take this lying down, you have to forcefully swallow it down. Otherwise, it would be self-destruction."
Amyes controlled a department of the Dark Mantle and had a close relationship with His Majesty the King. He could already see some clues from His Majesty the King's series of arrangements today. He understood that before His Majesty the King died, no one in the Lancelot Empire would be able to touch Han Shuo. Even he, Amyes, couldn't do so, let alone a mere light major teacher?
"This, this, Lord Amyes, why do you say this?" Voigtlander was startled in his heart and asked somewhat strangely.
"You can figure it out yourself. Hehe, the reason why I'm giving you this advice is because you invited me here. Look at those dark major fellows on the other side. I guarantee that they will suffer a great loss sooner or later. Oh, it's not sooner or later. Perhaps they will suffer a great loss very soon. Ha, that fellow actually came. Didn't he just leave His Majesty's place not long ago? " Amyes first warned Voigtlander. Suddenly, he took a glance and discovered a tall and imposing figure in the distance. He couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
Following Amyes' line of sight, Voigtlander also saw Han Shuo walking over from afar. He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Heavens, how did this fellow grow so tall!"
The last time Voigtlander saw Han Shuo, he wasn't even 1.8 meters tall. Every time Han Shuo came to the necromancy major, he would directly look for Fanny. An average person wouldn't even have the chance to see Han Shuo. Han Shuo, who cultivated in demonic arts, was currently as imposing as a demon god, naturally exuding a demonic and alluring aura.
Even in a sea of people, Han Shuo's tall and imposing figure and aura would attract everyone's gazes, causing people to uncontrollably focus their attention on him. As a matter of course, he became the focal point of the crowd.
"Master Fanny, it's Brian!! Brian is here, he really is here! " Lisa had originally been looking around in boredom, not expecting Han Shuo to really return. When she saw Han Shuo's handsome figure appear from the corner of her eyes, her heart was thrown into chaos and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"It looks like only when I truly see him will I know that my forgetfulness these days was all fake. I, I still haven't forgotten him!" After Lisa exclaimed in surprise, her charming face suddenly dimmed as she sighed in her heart.
Under Lisa's exclamation, Fanny's bright eyes exploded with the light of inconceivable joy. Her delicate body couldn't help but stand up, but then she remembered that they were in full view of the crowd and couldn't help but blush and sit back down. She cursed herself for losing her composure in her heart as she pretended to take a sip of water. She tried to keep her tone as calm as possible and said to the excited young boys and girls in front of her, "Yes, that's Brian. He counts as your senior."
The dozens of necromancy major students who had come because of Han Shuo's name had just completed the procedures to join the necromancy major. Hearing this, their faces all flushed red as they stood on their tiptoes, desperately trying to see further, searching for traces of the hero in their hearts. Their tender hearts were filled with excitement and agitation.
As Han Shuo walked over, he discovered that due to his appearance, numerous gazes were uniformly focused on his body. However, Han Shuo's eyes swept around in a circle and didn't immediately see the necromancy major's recruitment point. He couldn't help but feel puzzled for a moment.
However, Han Shuo understood that the necromancy major was affiliated with the dark major. The dark major's position was rather conspicuous. A mystical demon suddenly pulled up and looked down, only then did Han Shuo see Fanny's existence in a corner behind the dark major. Five skeletal warriors were holding a banner. The words on the banner made Han Shuo feel somewhat amused. He thought to himself, Why does the largest magic academy in the Lancelot Empire look like a vegetable market when it comes to recruitment?
As he pondered, Han Shuo walked towards the necromancy major. Just as Han Shuo was about to pass by the dark major's recruitment point, Deo hastily pulled Crowley and said in a low voice, "That kid is Brian. If you're planning to seize this opportunity to become famous, defeating him is a good method!"
Crowley followed Deo's line of sight and couldn't help but be speechless, "Deo, are you mistaken? Is this kid really a necromancer? Why do I feel that he's even taller and more muscular than a barbarian warrior? "
Deo was somewhat at a loss for words, his expression ugly as he explained, "That's right, it's him. However, it's said that he also practices a mystical martial technique and last time defeated Brut Merchant Alliance's Leah Cain. Crowley, you're not afraid are you?"
"He also practices a kind of martial technique …" Crowley stared blankly for a moment before letting out a mischievous smile and saying, "This kind of inattentive mage is the easiest to deal with. If you didn't mention this, I really would have some misgivings. Now that you mention it, I can be at ease."
Han Shuo walked towards the necromancy major and was a little surprised by the gazes of so many people in the surroundings. He didn't expect that his appearance would actually cause so many people to be startled.
The light major's recruitment point was located in an extremely conspicuous location. Han Shuo easily discovered Amyes' existence through a mystical demon. When Han Shuo passed by the light major's recruitment point, he couldn't help but nod his head in greeting to Amyes who was leisurely sipping his tea. Amyes was one of the three heavyweights of the Dark Mantle and could be considered as Han Shuo's immediate superior. In addition, Amyes was also Emily's blood brother. Whether it was official or private, Han Shuo had to show some respect when he saw Amyes.
Amyes who was originally sitting there leisurely sipping his tea didn't dare to be the slightest bit arrogant when he saw Han Shuo nod his head in greeting. He actually stood up from his sitting position and returned a greeting to Han Shuo with a smile.
With Amyes' position in the Lancelot Empire, to be so respectful towards Han Shuo, this upstart, caused Voigtlander beside him to be somewhat astonished. Recalling Amyes' advice to him just now, Voigtlander suddenly understood something. On the contrary, he looked towards the dark major's side with some schadenfreude. Seeing Crowley's restless appearance, Voigtlander started to watch a good show.
Facing Amyes standing up to return the greeting, Han Shuo was similarly astonished. No matter how he looked at it, with Amyes' status, returning the greeting by sitting there was already giving Han Shuo face. He really didn't expect that Amyes would actually stand up to show respect to him.
This meant that Amyes treated Han Shuo as someone on the same level as himself and didn't have the intention to treat Han Shuo as a subordinate. Otherwise, no matter if it was his age or his qualifications in the Dark Mantle, there was no need for him to stand up to return the greeting.
Revealing a brilliant smile, the somewhat baffled Han Shuo headed straight for the necromancy major, not bothering to investigate the reason why Amyes was so friendly.
Suddenly, a sinister-looking middle-aged magus blocked Han Shuo's path. Crowley glanced at Han Shuo's body and suddenly said, "You must be Count Brian? Hehe, let me introduce myself. I am Crowley, a graduate of the dark major of the Babylon Academy of Magic and Force. I have always been fascinated by the exploration of magic and have only recently returned to the Lancelot Empire … "
"If you have something to say, just say it!" Han Shuo creased his brows and didn't wait for Crowley to finish his string of words, directly interrupting him.
Crowley's expression froze, his expression somewhat awkward. He didn't expect that as a noble Count, Han Shuo would actually rudely interrupt his speech. This caused Crowley to stare blankly for a moment.
"I heard that Count Brian is a necromancy grand magus. I wonder if Lord Count would grant me the honor of comparing notes with me in magic?" After Crowley's speech was interrupted by Han Shuo, he was somewhat displeased and straightforwardly issued a challenge.
When these words were spoken, the expressions of some of the dark major's students and instructors were all shaken. Not far away, the attention of the various majors were all focused here. When they heard Crowley's relatively loud challenge, they all became excited in that moment, hastily abandoning what they were doing and rushing over.
On the necromancy major's side, when Han Shuo had appeared, Fanny had been staring at Han Shuo and had clearly heard Crowley's challenge from the dark major. Without waiting for Fanny to express anything, Lisa and some students had already rushed over. Fanny hesitated for a moment before turning her head to say to Gene, "Master Gene, please look after this place, I'll go take a look!"
"Alright, go ahead, I'll look after this place." Gene understood the true relationship between Fanny and Han Shuo and nodded in understanding.
"Let's go, we'll also go take a look. Haha, where did this fellow come from, to actually challenge our hero." The new necromancy major students who had heard of Crowley excitedly ran over.
Amyes, who had just sat down, fiercely spat out a mouthful of tea. He looked awkwardly at Voigtlander who had been sprayed all over him and said with an embarrassed smile, "Sorry, sorry, I really guessed correctly that fellow. He wanted to take the opportunity to stand out, hehe."
"It's fine, it's fine. My Lord is indeed formidable." Voigtlander used a tissue to wipe the tea stains on his body as he flattered Amyes with a smile. How would he dare to blame Amyes!
