"Is it very troublesome?" Roland was a little curious.
Aldo nodded. "Quite troublesome."
A mocking expression appeared on his face. "Unlike most of our regional branches, those guys from the headquarters have their noses on their heads. In their eyes, other organizations and individuals, even branches like ours, are all magic deserts, and the people are all barbarians. They're not worth their attention at all. Handing over the blueprint of Hand of Magic now is tantamount to slapping them in the face. "
"So they'll be very hostile to me?" Roland asked rather curiously.
Aldo sat down across from him. He twisted his upper body to make his sitting position more comfortable, then said, "They definitely won't believe that such an outrageous spell model would come from a branch of magic in a remote area. Raising a level-zero trick to the level of a level-two spell is something that hasn't happened in hundreds of years. So … they'll do everything they can to make things difficult for you to prove that the node diagram of this model didn't come from your hands. "
Roland looked at him for a good while. "You seem to want to see such a scene?"
"Of course!" Aldo said without hiding it. "I'm a coward, I don't dare to challenge the authority of the headquarters, but you can! I want to see the people from the headquarters hit a wall here, hit until their scalps bleed and they lose all face. "
At this moment, Aldo's body exuded an obvious malice, and there was even a slightly twisted smile on his face, as if he had already seen the end of those people from the headquarters.
Roland observed him for a few seconds, then asked, "If the headquarters really wants to deal with me, they don't have to fight me head-on, they just have to conceal my magic model. One is a small Mage, the other is a large organization, anyone would believe the latter. "
"If such a thing really happened, what would you do?" Aldo leaned forward and asked curiously.
There was a strange light in his tawny eyes, like an invisible sharp blade, cold and threatening.
"Just let them conceal it for now." Roland smiled and said, "When I'm strong enough, I'll find a few good friends and fight my way to the association to reason things out."
His words were very gentle and light, but there was a force in them.
"You're that confident that you can deal with the Association of Mages?" Aldo sat back down and asked with raised eyebrows.
"You also know that we will not die, so I will have countless chances."
Aldo shook his head enviously. "Yeah, you guys won't die, so you guys can do whatever you want most of the time. I'm glad that most of you are in the good camp. Otherwise, there would be more disasters in this world. As for the model nodes, don't worry, they won't be able to hide it. "
Roland didn't say anything and continued to look at him.
Seeing that Roland did not take the initiative to ask, Aldo suddenly felt a little disappointed. The other party's refusal to cooperate with his pretentious act made him extremely unhappy. "It's actually very simple. Before handing over the model nodes to the Guild of Magic, I had already sacrificed a copy of the node model to the Goddess of Magic in your name. And the Goddess accepted it. "
"The Goddess of Magic?" Roland asked subconsciously.
"Well, it's said that all magic in the world was created by her." Aldo shrugged. "But the elves say that the Goddess of Magic used to be a human! So we can't say for sure whether the Goddess of Magic used to be a human or a god. However, it is true that she dominates the magical elements. This is not wrong. "
"So the Goddess of Magic approved that model node diagram?"
"Yes." A gloating expression appeared on Aldo's face again. "If those reviewers want to hide the model node diagram, they have to prove that you don't have the ability to make the model node diagram. This is exactly what I want to see. They target you crazily, and if they don't succeed, they might even threaten you. "
"And I just happen to be immortal. Then you can watch the show from the sidelines and watch us fight until our heads bleed?" Roland sighed. "You're using people like this and saying it in such an arrogant manner in front of the person being used. Aren't you afraid that I won't cooperate with you?"
"Now that the situation has been set, you can't avoid it." Aldo smiled. "I know you'll be a little unhappy, but I'll compensate you. As long as it's within my power, you can ask for it."
Roland thought about it and said, "I want to know, why are you targeting the headquarters?"
"Must I know?" Aldo narrowed his eyes.
A faint, oppressive aura emanated from his body.
Roland shook his head. "Just curious. If you don't want to say it, then forget it. But I can't guarantee that I won't leave here. "
The smile on Aldo's face faded. He looked at Roland for a moment and suddenly said, "Do you think Vivian is cute? Considerate? "
"Huh? What does this have to do with her? " Roland frowned. He couldn't understand why Aldo's topic had suddenly jumped to someone else.
Ignoring Roland's expression, Aldo immersed himself in his memories. "When I was still a magic apprentice, I knew a girl apprentice in the same batch as me. She was as cute and considerate as Vivian. I liked her very much. Can you guess what happened later?"
Roland seemed to have guessed the reason for Aldo's hostility toward the headquarters. "That girl was a genius. She developed a magic model, or she made a great contribution, and then the results of her research were hidden by the headquarters?"
According to Roland's habits of thinking, this should be the main plot.
"Hahahahaha!" Aldo let out a burst of wild laughter.
Roland felt that he seemed to have poked at Aldo's sore spot. He even felt that the girl might already …
In the end, Aldo's laughter suddenly stopped and his expression turned 180 degrees. He said with a cold face, "No, you guessed wrong. The one who really had the results of the research was me. I was so happy at the time that I told my theory to the gentle girl and showed her the blueprints. The next day, she disappeared from the magic tower. Then a genius magic girl appeared in the headquarters. "
Damn!
"I went to the headquarters to confront her, was humiliated by them, and found out her identity. It turned out that she was a distant relative of the headquarters' chairman. I'll never forget that scene. At the time, she looked down on me and threw twenty gold coins at me, saying it was a charity for me. "Aldo began to cover his face and laugh wildly again. His laughter was sharp and unpleasant." Do you know? The more angry I was at the time, the more cowardly I was! I didn't even have the courage to look at her face. "
"You didn't resist?"
"I didn't dare!" Aldo's eyes looked at Roland through the gaps of his fingers, like the eyes of a beast imprisoned in a cage. "I still have parents, and friends, I didn't dare! I couldn't harm them because of my anger. But you're different … You Golden Sons aren't afraid of death and have a good heart. "
Roland closed his eyes gently. After a while, he opened them and asked seriously, "So, in fact, you wanted to use me for a long time!"
"After seeing the craziness of your two compatriots, I had this idea, but they weren't Mages and didn't have a good way to cut in. Just when I was in a dilemma, you came. " Aldo stood up and said with a hint of apology, "I knew as soon as you entered the city. Even if you didn't come to me, I would have gone to you. We're both Mages, and even if you didn't come out with the model diagram this time, I would have found a way to guide you to stand against the association. "
