Arcane Lord

Why do you say "again"?

Because this is not the first time Niya has done this. The previous training materials for "Astral Mage" and "Plane Scholar" were brought back from Giles Tower.

Although the Tower of Time has yet to produce true "plane scholars" and "astral mages", those materials are undoubtedly very precious.

Although the "Star Mage" is called a mage, he is also a clergyman, which is equivalent to a "dual cultivation of Sin and Olympus". These information are not of much use to Shado himself;

But "plane scholars" are very important. After all, this is very rare knowledge in the plane field!

And the main research direction he chose in the future is the plane field.

In addition, there is a spell specifically used for plane exploration, [Plane Synchrony], which Niya also brought back from Giles Tower.

So, what books did Niya bring back this time?

Xia Duo looked at Niya expectantly, constantly guessing about the possible types of books. It would be great if there was information related to the creation of demiplanes!

But Niya’s answer was a little regrettable:

"Don't look at me. This time is different from before. I told the teacher before. This time I didn't go to the teacher. I just picked some ordinary books that don't need to be kept secret. They can also be found in the Austrian Law Federation."

It can be found in the Arcane Federation, so it is most likely a popular product, but it can be brought back by Niya, which is presumably something that the current Tower of Time does not have.

Aibo asked again: "In what direction?"

Niya replied: "These are apprentice-level knowledge, very simple. Isn't the Tower of Time about to transform? I think these books may be useful."

She knew that in Xia Duo's plan, the focus of transformation was to cultivate reserve forces. She had picked these books for a long time and brought them back after finding them useful.

Just hearing this, Aibo couldn't help showing a disappointed expression. He hoped that Niya would bring back high-level magic books instead of just apprentice-level books.

However, Niya's words made Xia Duo's eyes light up. He was worried about when the library's exemption zone would be opened. With the books Niya brought back, he could at least buy them first.

The mysterious magic book from Giles Tower, I think even a formal mage would be curious about it!

At least Shado is very curious. He really wants to know the difference between the books read by the apprentices in Giles Tower and those in the Tower of Time!

Of course, it was impossible for him to stand here and ask Niya for books to read, but he had already thought of his words, "I have temporarily closed area 12 of the library. Niya, please put the books you brought back in area 12." Well, the zoning exemption will be opened soon!”

"Okay, I'll do it now."

As she spoke, Niya took out about twenty or thirty books one by one from the dimensional bag, divided them into two piles on the desk, and then a white light flashed, and all the books disappeared.

"It has been sent to Area 12, but it has not been linked to the protective circle yet."

"It doesn't matter, I'll find someone to handle it."

While talking, Sha Duo glanced at De Parker out of the corner of his eye. He is now the personnel director of the Tower of Time. Of course, this is just his job title, but in fact De Parker's job authority is very wide.

He has the right to participate in decisions ranging from the appointment of various mages to the number of apprentices to be recruited each year.

In other words, Depak is in charge of the "politics" of the Tower of Time, while Cecily, the materials manager, is in charge of the "finance." As for Warren, the foreign affairs manager, he is actually similar to the "chief guest".

If it hadn't been for the Tower of Time's transformation, which required all non-staff mages to be absorbed, in the past, Warren would have had little say in the Tower of Time.

Except for the part he brings as an intermediate mage.

As the Tower of Time grows, it will naturally be inconvenient for Depak to be in charge of "government" affairs alone. Shado plans to appoint multiple "administrative officers" for the Tower of Time. Of course, this will be done gradually as the Tower of Time grows.

However, what would Depak think about this kind of thing that is equivalent to splitting Depak's authority?

…

Sha Duo stayed in Niya's study until noon. During this period, the five people discussed various situations that might be encountered during the transformation of the Tower of Time.

Although several small goals for the first phase of transformation have been announced, the future is changing all the time, and transformation needs to keep pace with the times.

At noon, Cecily invited everyone to her house for lunch. Niya and Aibo happily accepted the invitation, but Depak refused on the pretext of something else.

As for Xia Duo, because he was worried about the books that Niya brought back, and because De Parker had already refused, he also refused. It was not until he arrived at the library that he suddenly realized.

It's not necessarily because Depak refused because there was something really wrong, but Cecily's invitation was obviously a luncheon similar to a family gathering. Shado knew about Lord Epps, Aibo and Cecily's father, Thain Town. The three of them grew up together and have a good relationship, just like family.

Cecily invited Niya's husband Shado, not the mage Shado. He shouldn't refuse, but since he has already refused, there is not much point in rushing over now.

Just pay attention next time.

…

On the other side, Aiboike crossed the portal first and arrived at Savile Town. By the time Nia and Cecily came over, Aiboike had disappeared.

"Uncle Aibo must have gone to the town hall to find my father. Let's go directly to my house!"

"Um."

Niya responded, then pulled Cecily and disappeared, reappearing in a quiet manor villa.

The servants had long been accustomed to the arrival of the lord, and one of them went to inform the mistress of the villa. The others did not come forward to entertain them, but allowed their ladies to lead the lord around the manor.

After a while, a group of maids surrounded a middle-aged woman who looked like she was still in trouble. She walked out of the room. Looking at the two familiar figures in the yard, she couldn't help but call out, "Cecilia, Nia!"

"Mother!" Cecily trotted into the woman's arms, acting coquettishly.

Niya followed, looking at the two people with some envy, and called, "Aunt Selina!"

"Lord Lord!"

Selina took off her daughter from her body, and wanted to step forward to grab Niya's hand, but she didn't know what she thought of, and her hand that was halfway raised suddenly dropped.

A hint of sadness flashed in Niya's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. She took the initiative to hold Selina's hand, no longer caring about the taboos of spell casters, and leaned towards Selina like she did when she was a child.

When the two bodies were leaning against each other, Niya clearly felt that Selina's body was a little stiff, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She didn't say anything more, but just pulled Selina towards the inner room.
