Chapter 540: Behind the Scenes of the Great Magic Festival(1/2)
"Your Highness, this is the information sent back by people lurking among humans."
In the castle of Xilu Cliff, a pale but extremely handsome man presented a secret letter to the girl sitting on the big velvet bed.
The girl snapped her fingers slightly, and the secret letter floated in front of her and opened it on its own, revealing the contents inside.
After browsing the letter with few words, the golden eyes, which were originally somewhat indifferent, suddenly became more and more energetic.
"Haw, it seems that Adrick's magical human friend is planning to do something interesting again."
She jumped up from the soft bed, and her loose nightgown floated high due to inertia, revealing a large piece of snow-white and tender skin that made people imagine.
Then she snapped her fingers again, and the wrinkled nightgown disappeared, replaced by a bright red princess skirt and a gorgeous parasol that must be decorated with tassels.
"Your Highness, do you also want to participate in the inexplicable vulgar activities created by that cunning human being?" Asashare, who was covered in black robe, said in surprise and disdain.
"Assacheer, have you ever participated in this event called the Great Magic Festival?"
His Highness, the Great Princess of the Dark Night noble, glanced at his chief servant with blood-red eyes and asked in a quiet and sweet voice.
"This is the first time this event was held, and of course I have never participated." Although the girl's question was a bit inexplicable, out of her absolute loyalty to her master, Asashare replied to the truth: "It's just that the activities of lower creatures like humans do not need to waste time and energy to pay attention at all."
“It is not a good tendency to deny something new without having experienced it personally.”
The girl used the parasol as a crutch and leaned on the ground and said to her domineeringly.
"But, but...humans are just food for vampires..."
"But all of our vampires have learned from humans." Asashael seemed to want to argue, but was scolded by the girl: "Asashael, you are too impetuous recently. Go back to the abyss for our family and calm down in the Styx!"
Asashael slapped his lips a few times, but in the end he didn't dare to contradict the girl, so he could only bend over slightly: "I understand, I'll let those lichs prepare to open the door to the abyss."
The gate to the abyss is not so easy to open, otherwise the vampire princess would not have to spend so much effort to get those abyss demons to the main material plane.
Even though the abyss forces have now stabilized in the eastern plains to a certain extent, it is still difficult to open the portal and it will take some time to prepare.
"I don't know when that devil will come. Our family is tired of living in the castle..." It can be seen that the girl is in a very good mood now: "Adric is really a good guy."
"But Your Highness the Princess."
The handsome vampire who just presented the information looked as if Asashare was under the hood, and asked hesitantly: "Is it really okay for you to suddenly run into the human territory like this? Isn't it any other thing. Just causing trouble to that human Adrick will also affect future cooperation, right?"
I did a lot of work. Your Highness, Princess, please give up this unreliable itinerary!
Asashare cried in his heart.
"Dokaru, you're thinking too much. Our family will play with a human identity. I think that as long as you don't reveal your identity, Adrick won't be stingy with a place."
The vampire princess waved her hand. Then she said as if she had remembered something: "By the way, if Asashare goes back to the abyss, I will lack a personal guard, and you can do it."
So the handsome vampire could only accept the appointment with a bitter mouth in Asashaer's gaze that seemed to be slashing at any time.
It feels not good to be missed by a big demon...especially when he is just a duke-level vampire.
——Adrick College. Restaurant—
Even if Sivi did not ask, the entire Morag residents still spontaneously decorated the lights and decorated this city that was still alive not long ago like the grandest festival.
Walking on the street with bright lights, no matter who you are, you will feel infected by the joyful atmosphere, and even your mood will become particularly happy.
It’s a pity that no matter how happy I feel, I still can’t eat it.
"Professor Yiwen Jielin, you are the former eldest princess of Huoli'an after all. Can you be a little more reserved in eating?" Alice pushed the dining cart to the dining table where Yiwen Jielin was. While collecting most of the empty plates on it, she put the new plates containing delicious food on it. At the same time, the maid girl said with a wry smile: "A lot of students who originally longed for you showed the disillusioned expressions of idol image..."
"There's no way, the food in the Horngolat Empire is really bad!"
Yiwen Jielin finally stopped eating before, put down the plate in her hand, and with debris still on the corner of her mouth, she complained with confidence to the maid girl who had just returned to Adrick's position as the chief maid not long after, and said, "If you are used to Adrick's food, how can you eat those shits?"
Although the Horngolat Empire was the largest country in the eastern plain, because their country adhered to the rules passed down from generation to generation by the emperor, both royal and noble people lived a relatively hard life in private life.
It is said that this is to prevent them from indulging in enjoyment and always keep a vigilant about the position they are in... Although most people don't know what the relationship between food, clothing, housing and transportation is related to vigilance...
In fact, many nobles in Hohengorat have begun to ignore this principle and enjoy a good life - of course, they are only private, and on the surface they have to abide by this rule of asceticism - and do not know if it is due to the imbalance of "How can I practice it, and you don't want to eat it well if I can't eat it well". The food in the VIP guesthouse of the Hohengorat Empire is also very good.
It is obviously full of dishes, beautiful appearance and rich in nutrients. But it is very unpalatable...
"Sorry, the food in our country is not very good. If you have any comments... come and beat me!"
Although the empire did not make any statement, the above sentence is almost their default attitude.
Damn, who can beat you in that circle of countries around you!
In short, it is because of this that I was used to eating Adrick's "delicious + 2" food, and then went to the Horngolat Empire Guesthouse to eat the food that I ignored. It is no wonder that Yiwenjielin was so out of control.
Of course, there is another big reason. After removing the burden of being a princess, her cold shell as a disguise was also gradually melting and peeling off when she got along with Adrick's innocent and pure students, revealing her true relationship.
"Professor Yiwenjielin, why do you want to go to the Horngolat Empire?" In fact, there is still some distance to lunch time, and there are not many people in the restaurant, so Alice simply took the time to ask Yiwenjielin.
"Actually, what I'm looking for is not Horngolat, but the King's Parliament."
Yiwen Jielin bit the spoon and said vaguely.
As one of the three major forces in the Eastern Plains (not counting the Timothian Dark Alliance), the permanent decision-making place of the King's Parliament is in the Horngolat Empire.
Of course, the emperors and dukes of various countries cannot stay in Horngorat all the time. So most of the time, the composition of the king's parliament is actually composed of the spokespersons of the empire, and Ivengelin was also one of them last year.
This time I went to the King's Council, Yiwenjielin's mission was not difficult. She just asked the other party to borrow all the land within a radius of 20 kilometers around Morag. During this period, no one was allowed to enter with any excuses. When the great magic festival was over, they would return it.
As a magic technology, it is known as a member of the Adrick Academy of the Seven Stars Mage Association, and it is comparable to that (in fact, it is already ahead of it). At that time, there will naturally be a way to monitor that area.
Although some people who wrote about Adrick Academy were not disgusted with opposing it, most people, especially Morag's original country, agreed, and the proposal was successfully decided.
"What do the teacher want to do?" After listening to Yiwen Jielin's statement, Alice held the dining plate in one hand and held her cheek in the other, and there were even more question marks in her head.
"Isn't it just a great magic sacrifice? Aren't the students outside preparing?"
Yiwen Jielin has no confusion in this regard at all.
Not long ago, all the tasks on the bulletin board were cancelled, leaving only the last task called "Preparation of the Great Magic Festival!".
The task requirements are very simple, allowing students to create programs they think are interesting: games, competitions, strange levels, stall sales, exhibitions, performances, etc. When the great magic festival is time, all programs will be included in the evaluation list, and the top ten will receive gifts carefully prepared by Siwei.
So since the mission was announced, the students began to work hard to prepare for the Great Magic Festival.
"I think the teacher will definitely not just create a hodgepodge of students' programs as the main activity of the Great Magic Festival." Alice put her index finger against her lips and guessed: "There must be other activities. Teacher Yiwen Jielin, you should also know the truth, right?"
"It's Alice, I really know our dean."
Finally, Ewen Jielin, who had wiped out the food on the table again, sighed contentedly, and then naturally enjoyed the black tea after meals brought by Alice: "What you want to say is indeed not a 'sacrificial sauna for students' programs' but a 'sacrificial sauna of dozens of magic academy programs'. In addition, Mr. Siwei also arranged some other things, which is not my responsibility. If you want to know, go and ask the other person in charge."
"Huh? Are other academies not invited to participate in the event?" the girl blinked and asked in confusion.
"Don't forget the real name of the Great Magic Festival: the Joint Exchange Conference of the Great Magic Academy. If only we are working hard and the other academies are just enjoying it, the word "communication" is completely meaningless, right?"
Yiwen Jielin held the teacup gracefully and said softly, "It's completely impossible to associate her with the hungry ghost-like appearance just now."
"If other academies are also participants, what should the guests do?" asked the maid girl in confusion again.
"have no idea."
This time Yiwen Jielin simply replied: "This is not my responsibility. In addition, compared to this, Alice, have you decided to have a program for the Great Magic Festival?"
"I should serve the guests as a maid?" The maid girl thought for a while and smiled, "The teacher should also need us to guide the guests."
"Hey... it's so boring."
"Please don't participate in the magic festival with the mentality of watching your students make a fool of themselves. Professor Yiwen Jielin, you are the teacher that students admire."
After putting all the dishes together, Alice pushed the dining cart away with a smile: "Lunch time is coming soon, I'll go to the kitchen to help prepare. See you later."
Yiwen Jielin waved her hand casually to show that she knew.
After Alice pushed the dining car out of the restaurant, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared. The maid girl touched her lonely face and murmured to herself: "Is the show... No, I just need to be able to help the teacher... Well, that's enough."
——Adrick College. Dean’s Office—
"So, what are you doing for so much!" Sofia slapped the thick budget report in her hand on Sevi's desk.
As mentioned before, Adrick Academy has long implemented paperless office work, and these budget statements were only printed by the girl to increase her deterrence.
"In this event, I didn't see any vested interests at all! Even if our academy is rich, money and magical items cannot be wasted like this!"
"Oh, Sofia, did you eat it?"
"Not...not right, don't get out of the topic!" The girl who was teased by Siwei is in a tendency to evolve into an active volcano.
"Don't be excited."
Xiwei pushed his hand. In order to prevent himself from being burned by the volcanic lava, he made a "please" gesture to the sofa.
The girl raised her head and snorted, but finally sat on the sofa with a reluctance.
Sure enough, being arrogant is so coaxing.
Xiwei sighed in her heart about something that was completely incompatible, and said with a serious expression on her face: "Actually, the one who benefited the most in this activity is not the others. It is precisely us."
"What? Judging from the budget statement, even in the best situation, it is just that you lose less. Where can you benefit?"
The girl retorted impatiently.
Although Sofia is indeed doing a good job as a housekeeper, she is just a girl who grew up in a magical world, and the books she read are mainly technical. Her forward-looking and overall view are still a little bit worse.
"Sofia, why do you think the Seven Stars Mage Association can stand out among many mage joint organizations and finally become such a dominant company?"
Instead of answering the girl's question directly, Siwei asked another seemingly unrelated question.
