In the darkness, Andonara's eyes reflected a faint silver luster.
Roland was silent for a moment and asked, "So I've been curious just now. Since you're not even afraid of a few great Mages, who can take you away?"
"I did it on purpose." Andonara hugged her legs, rested her chin on her knees, and said indifferently, "Because my husband has always been cold to me. I just wanted to see if my husband would care if I was taken away. "
Roland was speechless. Wasn't there a very common saying in today's society … Human nature can't stand the test.
Looking at Roland's helpless expression, Andonara chuckled a little desolately. "Just as you imagined, after I disappeared, my husband didn't actually try to find me at all. And after I returned to the palace, the first thing he did was to send a trusted Mage over and use Lie Detection on me, asking if I had been bullied and if I had betrayed the interests of the royal family. Isn't it very cold? Shouldn't a normal husband care about his wife first? "
Roland sighed. He didn't really want to hear these things.
Although Andonara was indeed more miserable, in any case, Kaka was identified by her, and this was an unchangeable fact.
No matter how pitiful Andonara made herself sound, Roland didn't have much of a good impression of her.
Seeing that Roland didn't have much of a reaction, she turned her head to look at the man next to her and asked softly, "Do you also think that my husband's behavior is right?"
"I didn't say that." Roland shook his head slightly. "I'm just thinking about other things."
"I'm right in front of you. Can't you be more gentlemanly and think more about me?" Andonara's eyes were bright.
"I will when I have time."
Andonara clicked her tongue. "What a perfunctory answer."
Then the two of them fell silent at the same time. Andonara had already discovered that the man next to her was indeed not very interested in her (sexually).
She had never had a good way to deal with such a man. Just like her king husband, they were both the type who didn't care much about women.
Did this count as coming out of one pit and almost jumping into another?
Is my life so bitter?
Andonara couldn't have been more resentful.
On the top floor of the headquarters, Dalton Wyon, the general chairman, was looking at the spell model before him.
The derivative diagram submitted by the youngest son of the Bard family was filled with the imagination of a genius, and there were no redundant steps in the arrangement and connection of the spell nodes. Such a simple and perfect spell model was very, very rare.
After reading the spell model, he snapped his fingers, and a blue magic puppet holding a shield appeared next to him.
Taking a deep breath, he pointed at the magic puppet and launched a Chain Lightning at it, which the puppet blocked with its shield. Then, Inferior Fireballs, Arcane Bullets, and even Acid Spray couldn't break the magic puppet's magic light shield. In the end, Dalton had to cut off the magic power supply himself, and the puppet finally disappeared.
"It's at least a Level 2 Summoning Spell." Dalton nodded in satisfaction. "Also, the magic puppet has inherited part of the common knowledge of the spellcasters and is very intelligent. This kind of magic is definitely not something that Kaka can analyze. "
"Who's behind him?"
Just as he was feeling puzzled, there was a knock on the door. Without looking back, he said, "Come in."
A young man walked in from outside the room. He was dressed in a robe and had a thin figure. His appearance was above average, and he had a buzz cut. He looked quite spirited.
"Father, you wanted to see me?"
"Yes. Take this spell model and learn it in three days. There are notes below, as well as the effects and abilities of the nodes. Memorize them all. This spell will be your own creation, and it will be called 'Rourke's Anti-Puppet Summoning.' Got it? "
Though somewhat confused, the young man named Rourke picked up the spell model and read it for a while. Then, his eyes gradually glittered. "It's indeed a level-two spell that has never been seen before. Father, where did you get it? "
"That's none of your business." Dalton looked at his only son kindly. "Memorize it without a single mistake, and you have to understand all the principles in it. After you understand it, I'll apply for a magic certification for you. That way, you may catch the attention of the Green Magic Tower. "
Rourke nodded excitedly. "Got it, Father. I'll go back and study it now. "
"Okay, go ahead." Dalton smiled gently.
After Rourke left the room, Dalton continued reading.
Very soon, someone knocked on the door again. This time, it was a middle-aged man who came in with a blank expression.
"General Chairman, the shadow of the royal family took action not long ago. We investigated and found that they seem to be looking for Her Highness. "
"The queen?" After a brief daze, Dalton smiled. "The queen is missing again? It wasn't done by the Association of Mages. Are they looking for her? "
"No, the shadow of the royal family is not looking for us, but for the Golden Sons?"
Dalton was briefly stunned. "Since when did the Golden Sons reach out to the queen?"
"I don't know yet."
"Then investigate it immediately." Dalton snorted in dissatisfaction. "Do you need me to teach you that?"
"Yes."
The middle-aged man was about to leave, when Dalton suddenly said, "Wait. Send a few people to the Bard family and tell their master that this incident is over. This matter is over, but remember, don't be a fence-sitter. If you want to take advantage of both sides, you won't be able to take advantage of either. "
"Yes."
After the middle-aged man left the room, Dalton sat in the room for a while and then walked to the balcony.
After a spell, he was surrounded by a gentle wind, and then he soared into the night sky.
About thirteen minutes later, he landed in front of a white Magic Tower.
The soldiers who guarded the gate saw him and immediately welcomed him to the sixth floor of the Magic Tower.
Tobian, the bear-like Mage, was about to go to bed. Hearing that the general chairman was here, he had to meet him in his white pajamas.
Sitting in the study, Tobian scratched his bald head and said, "It's late. What can I do for you, general chairman?"
"Take a look at this spell model."
Dalton handed over the derivative spell of Spell Puppet. He intentionally deleted a lot of node annotations and the basic connection principles of the nodes. Those things were written on the edge of the blueprint by Kaka. Without them, the spell model was just a simple spell model. He could learn it, but he didn't know why.
It was impossible for Tobian to get magic certification with it.
"What an exquisite blueprint." Tobian knew his stuff well. His eyes gradually glittered.
"How about it? This is a new spell that my son developed. "Dalton smiled." Do you want to learn it? "
Tobian's eyes had been full of excitement, but all of a sudden, he put on a weird expression. Then, he closed the blueprint and returned it to Dalton. "Sorry, I suddenly realized that this spell is not suitable for me."
Huh?
Dalton found it odd that Tobian wasn't interested in such a simple and practical level-two spell, and a new one at that?
But seeing that Tobian didn't seem to be joking, he could only suppress his curiosity and leave after chatting with Tobian for a while.
