Angor asked Tom to stay with the other talents so that they could get to know each other better.
Tom tried his best to hold back his excitement and nodded with a trembling hand.
He wasn't excited about his talent, which he didn't know much about yet. He was excited because he finally understood Angor's intention. Angor was going to invite him to join a wizard organization!
To Little Tom, this was a great opportunity! He had a huge grudge against someone else, and it wasn't just the young leader he used to flatter every day.
The reason why he only targeted the leader was because back then, with his ability, he could only come into contact with the leader's level, and the leader was just a pawn. Hidden behind him were the extraordinary knights, the huge Princess' Castle, and the even more unbeatable Goman royal family.
Before this, Tom never thought about getting his revenge against such a powerful organization. But now, things were different. As long as he joined a wizard organization, he would have a ticket to enter the supernatural palace. Even if he couldn't shake the entire Goman Royal Family, he could at least kill a few more enemies to avenge himself.
Even though Angor never asked for Tom's opinion, the boy didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, he was grateful to Angor.
Tom bowed deeply to Angor. Angor saved him from the gargoyles and gave him a chance to get his revenge. Now, he was given a chance to grow stronger. Tom couldn't express his gratitude in words. He could only bow deeply to show his sincerity.
After little Tom left, Dorcas let out a deep breath and said emotionally, "That's right.
"I was wondering if I could steal him from you. But looking at his attitude, I don't think it's going to be easy." Dorcas paused and looked at Angor. "You and I came to Princess' Town together. When and where did you kidnap this talent?"
"You're not a nature wizard. Why would you want to steal him? As for where he came from … "
Angor didn't hide anything and told Dorcas about how he met Tom.
Dorcas couldn't help but sigh. "So you met him after we parted ways. He met the right person. If I was following him, he wouldn't have noticed me at all. "
Angor was speechless. Dorcas didn't say it out loud, but Angor felt offended.
Dorcas saw Angor staring at him and seemed to realize something. He quickly explained, "I didn't say you're weak. I mean, my stealth ability comes from the shadows and the earth. Unless I use a special sensing method, as long as I stand on the ground and blend into the darkness, I'll be able to blend in with my surroundings. No matter how strong his perception is, he won't be able to sense my existence. "
Even if he ran into Tom first and chose to follow the boy like Angor did, he would not be able to do anything to Tom.
Angor understood Dorcas' explanation. But he still felt that Dorcas was just trying to show off his stealth ability.
Looking at his smug face, one could tell that this guess was basically correct.
Angor wanted to say something to calm Dorcas down, but he held back in the end. The truth was that he had indeed been detected by Little Tom. Even if he explained that he had only used a very simple illusion technique, it would be pointless to say it now.
Besides, he was the one who got the benefits. Little Tom became a talent of Brute Cavern instead of following Dorcas as a wandering apprentice.
With that in mind, Angor looked at Dorcas. "Didn't you just comment on the talents of Brute Cavern one by one? Since you're already doing it, why don't you leave Little Tom behind? "
Of course, Dorcas knew that Angor was saying this on purpose. It seemed that Angor still remembered Dorcas' comments about these talents. Angor didn't care about it back then. But now, with a talent like Little Tom, he immediately had the motivation to fight back.
His ambition wasn't much different from the rumored Sunders. No wonder they became master and student.
Dorcas complained in his mind, but he still nodded. "Alright, let's do it."
Since Dorcas said so, Angor removed the silencing barrier so that their voices could be heard by the nearby talents again.
Dorcas rolled his eyes at Angor and continued, "Ahem, since I've already commented on the other talents, I can't leave Little Tom behind. Alright, I'll tell you about him as well."
As soon as he said that, all the talents immediately pricked up their ears.
Dorcas continued, "If I'm not mistaken, Little Tom is probably the most likely talent to become a wizard among your batch …"
Dorcas didn't mean to badmouth Little Tom. He was speaking from his heart. After all, he already said that he wanted to "cut off" Little Tom's speech. Badmouthing Little Tom was indirectly criticizing his own vision, which was obviously unwise.
After a few more compliments, Dorcas stopped and gave Angor a meaningful look. Is this enough?
He quickly set up a new soundproof barrier in response to Dorcas' request.
"You really let them listen," Dorcas looked at Angor. "Aren't you afraid that they'll do something to Little Tom?"
Angor looked at the talents who were already getting restless. "Like I said, being targeted isn't necessarily a bad thing."
Dorcas: "Alright, that's understandable. But aren't you afraid that Little Tom will change his mind? "
At this point, Madam Merlot also showed a trace of worry and whispered, "It's not a good thing to hear too many good words."
Angor saw both Dorcas and Lady Merlo looking at him. He really wanted to say, "What does it have to do with me?"
But he held himself back. Lady Merlo and Glaus were still here, and it would be inappropriate for him to be so heartless.
Angor sorted out his words and gave an official answer. "Recognizing and breaking the mental barrier is also a kind of training.
Besides, Little Tom won't necessarily have a mental barrier because of this. " Angor glanced at Little Tom. The boy might be at a loss, but at least he didn't have too many worries in his mind.
"Why do I feel like you're being a little irresponsible?"
"Is that so? I'm looking at it from my own perspective. I've heard a lot of good things before, but I still ended up like this. "
Dorcas didn't know what to say.
Angor was the fastest wizard in recent years, and he was also the most popular person in the magazines. Dorcas knew exactly how Angor had been treated in the past two years.
After Angor came into contact with Mystery levels as an apprentice and became a member of the research department, almost all wizard magazines were talking about him with all kinds of praises.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was a deliberate attempt to kill Angor.
But Angor didn't let this go to his head. He quickly broke the mental barrier and became the judge of the Rising Star Competition under the title of Dimensional Wizard.
Angor's personal experience proved that mental barriers were also a kind of training. The higher you were praised, the less likely you would fall. You could even soar to the sky.
But could Angor really compare with Little Tom?
Dorcas really wanted to ask this question, but on second thought, he didn't understand why they couldn't be compared. In terms of age, experience, and experience, Angor wasn't much better than Little Tom.
Dorcas really didn't know what to say. Angor already brought up his own experience. Could he still argue?
Obviously not.
Besides, Angor also said that he was looking at Little Tom from his own perspective. If Angor could do it, why couldn't Little Tom?
Dorcas couldn't refute this.
On the other hand, Lady Merlo was also convinced by Angor. Angor looked at Little Tom with his own standards, which was also a kind of respect. As long as Little Tom didn't lose himself, everything would be fine.
"Let's stop talking about Little Tom. What will happen to him in the future is up to him. You're thinking too much about his future, "Angor said lazily. "Let's get back to the topic. Didn't Glaus say he wanted to tell a story? Since Lady Merlo is here, let him do it."
Glaus, who had been ignored all this time, thought to himself, Not a story … It's my experience …
"Glaus's story? What do you mean? "Lady Merlo still didn't know what was going on.
"Listen to him yourself," Angor said.
Everyone looked at Glaus. Glaus took a deep breath and slowly began to speak.
However, he didn't tell his story right away. Instead, he apologized again and put all the blame on himself.
Lady Merlo's reaction was almost the same as Angor's. Glaus was partly to blame, but definitely not the main one. It was already good enough that he could face the guilt in his heart.
Moreover, Lady Merlot even felt that she was more responsible than Gloros. She was the representative of Brute Cavern, after all. Her arrest was considered a breach of duty. Besides, since she became Glaus' guide, she failed to protect Glaus and the other talents. She also failed to make proper decisions. This was also her fault.
She would report this to her superiors when she returned to Brute Cavern and take responsibility for what happened.
"It's still too early to talk about responsibility. Everything will be decided when we return to Brute Cavern. Let's talk about your own story first," Lady Merlo said.
Glas nodded, and began to recount his experience.
After hearing this, everyone understood why there was a relationship between the Gloros and the Empress.
Glaus' story was similar to White Bear's. It was one of the many tragedies caused by Goman King's arbitrary decision and the cruelty of the royal family.
Glaus' father used to be one of the assistants of the Minister of Discipline in the kingdom.
The Minister of Discipline was in charge of the kingdom's culture and discipline, which included the dissemination of literature and art.
And Glas's father was in charge of the arts.
Glaus' father knew the situation of the kingdom well. He knew that Goman King was an arbitrary man who would never allow literature and art to be spread freely. Glaus' father kept a tight watch on literature and art, which was why he was favored by the Minister of Discipline. Logically speaking, someone like him, who placed discipline as his top priority and had an extremely precise grasp of the situation, would not be implicated in the tragedy of the royal family.
Unfortunately, Glaus' father approved an opera performance. At first, there was no problem. But later, it was revealed that the author of the opera had contact with dissidents in the kingdom. That alone angered the Goman King.
The author of the opera, as well as all the actors and people behind the scenes, were all affected. A large number of people died. Glaus' father was also executed because he approved the performance of the opera.
It could be said that what happened to the Glorussian father was an unpredictable natural disaster.
Fortunately, because Glas's father was a slick and sly person, he was trusted by the Minister of Discipline. Thus, the Minister of Discipline was lenient towards him and didn't punish his entire family like other criminals. Glaus' father took the punishment alone. The rest of the family only had their property confiscated and were banished to the border provinces. They would not be able to set foot in the capital for several years.
That was the background of Glaus' family.
Back to the main topic. Since Glaus' father was the Minister of Discipline's trusted deputy, Glaus had indirectly or directly come into contact with many descendants of the royal family or ministers when he was very young.
It was also at that time that Glaus met Maudia, the daughter of the Eldest Princess and the current owner of the Princess' castle.
At that time, Maudia was only three or four years old. She was already very domineering and would forcefully take anything that caught her eye.
However, because Maudia was quite cute, many people just laughed it off.
At first, Glaus was also deceived by Maudia's appearance. He thought that she was a cute little sister and often took the initiative to give her things.
Later, Maudia suddenly said that she did not want anything else. She only wanted Glaus as a person!
— — —
At that time, Glaus thought that it was a joke. He did not expect Maudia to be serious.
However, this was a blessing in disguise. It was also at that time that something happened to Glaus' father, and Glaus was banished to the border provinces. This allowed him to avoid direct conflict with Maudia.
However, after so many years, Glaus had been living in the border cities. Just as he was about to forget Maudia, Maudia once again came to find him.
At this time, Maudia had already become the owner of Princess' town.
