I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

After cleaning the room for a while, Roland noticed a magical fluctuation in the crystal ball in the living room. He walked over and activated the crystal ball, and Catherine appeared within.

"I've heard about it, Roland. Is everything alright at the manor? How do you feel about it there?"

Catherine was particularly gentle today, and also seemed somewhat tired, as if she had been troubled recently.

She said, "For the Ballet Ghost, we can only use Wallace's method for now. Please wait for me, and I'll free up some time to help you get rid of this trouble."

She chatted with Roland for a while, and after learning that he was doing well, she felt relieved.

Ever since the trip to the ruins, Catherine had regarded Roland as her closest person. She told herself that this was only because they were comrades who had experienced life and death together. But what this 'Princess' truly felt for this 'Little Knight' who had saved her from danger several times, perhaps only she herself knew.

Catherine had been very troubled recently.

After returning to the family this time, she realized that she no longer had any 'relatives'. The only people left by her side were Roland and Wallace.

She could only strive to maintain the declining family like an ordinary heir.

The pressure from the outside world and the pressure from the elders were both very great.

Even the White Queen (White Chess Queen) had intervened in this matter.

These past few days, the family elders had brought up the matter of the heir's marriage contract again. The family hoped that Catherine, this 'genius', would become the current head of the Nightshade family, so that this increasingly powerful aristocratic force would once again become a vassal of Alexandra, giving the family a new lease on life.

To Catherine, this was simply laughable!

What angered her even more was that Catherine discovered that the elders were colluding with the Nightshade family.

That day, Catherine clashed with the family elders. She, along with Nall and Anna, killed an elder on the spot, and then fled to the White Chess Palace, offering the Holy Grail to the 'White Queen (White Chess Queen)'.

There were not many fourth-tier Radiant Moon Wizards in the entire Eastern Territory, and the White Queen was one of them.

She was Catherine's current mentor.

After taking the Holy Grail, the White Queen played with it for a while, curiously asking about Catherine's request.

Catherine explained the matter, and the White Queen was furious upon hearing it.

In her eyes, Catherine was a descendant of Alexandra's witch's younger brother. She was also the only direct descendant of Alexandra's generation.

And those elders were outsiders, so she would naturally protect Catherine.

She immediately took Catherine as her apprentice, sending people to help Catherine clean up those traitors, and stated that she would help Catherine regain control of the family.

But she then brought up one more thing to Catherine—the White Queen had a direct descendant, who was very outstanding, 22 years old this year. With a similar level to Catherine, he was a rising star in the White Chess Academy.

Catherine felt a headache coming on.

Helplessly, she could only bring up Roland, as well as the past agreement between the Alexandra and Aleyah families.

This excuse temporarily appeased the White Queen. But she also flew into a rage.

The Aleyah family was a large family a thousand years ago. But now it has declined into the secular world.

The bloodline of Aleyah today is probably no longer pure. That kid named Roland is probably a mudblood.

The White Queen values bloodlines the most, so she strongly disapproves of this matter. If Roland performs poorly again recently, the White Queen will definitely bring up the old matter again.

In a while, she will awaken her magic power, and her realm will leap, possibly even stepping into the realm of a second-tier wizard. At that time, no one will use this kind of thing to disgust her again.

So, she needs to discuss with Roland and let him cooperate with her, so as not to expose the matter.

But how should she say this... Tell him that she has been telling others everywhere that he is her future husband? And then cooperate a little, shining in the academy? For example, winning a place in the upcoming inter-academy competition?

Alas, Roland probably doesn't even know that he has inexplicably become her fiancé. Hopefully, he didn't read the newspaper today.

Catherine naturally did not tell Roland the above details.

But she contacted Roland today to talk about this matter.

After chatting absentmindedly with Roland for a while, Catherine asked very nervously, "Ro-Roland, I-I want to tell you something."

Roland didn't know what his senior wanted to discuss with him, but judging from her stammering appearance, Roland guessed that it was probably not a good thing.

He deliberately put on a stern face and spat out a word: "Speak."

Catherine's face turned red.

Originally, as Roland's mentor, she was one step above Roland. She would either make fun of Roland all day long, or put on airs and reprimand him.

But what about now? Only a few days have passed, and the offense and defense have been reversed.

If it had been before, Roland would have used such an arrogant tone to talk to his mentor, and the mentor would have had to turn around from the fireplace and teach him what it means to respect the teacher and value the Tao.

But now, she can't hold her head up a bit in front of Roland.

She stammered for a long time before saying: "Roland, I may, may need to borrow... I mean, I may need to temporarily borrow your reputation and right to choose a spouse (very quietly)."

Roland had already made some guesses. Hearing this, he immediately understood.

Wallace had secretly told Roland about this before.

Senior Sister must have been planning to hide it from him before, but now it seems that she can't hide it anymore.

The latest and most complete novels are available on Liиg 9 Shu Вa dot Com. First published!

Roland frowned and said, "Senior, even if I disagree, is it useful? You've already told everyone!"

Catherine was shocked and asked in a panic, "You already know? Did you, did you see it in the news? That new issue of the newspaper that came out at noon?"

"News? It's even on the news?!"

Roland was not well. He thought before that his relationship with the Alexandra family was not deep, and not many people would pay attention after he ran away in the future.

As a result, now, his affairs with the Alexandra family are on the news!

"You didn't read the news? Then how did you know about this?" Catherine frowned slightly. She had only told Wallace about this before. Roland couldn't possibly know.

Roland naturally couldn't betray his old brother Wallace, but his mind was turning very fast.

He said, "Do I still need to read the news? Everyone in the school knows now! When Helena and I went to the admissions office this morning, that Benjamin already said everything."

Roland passed the blame to Benjamin.

But Senior Sister's focus was not on this.

She frowned and chewed on Roland's words, her face gradually darkening: "Who is Helena?"

Roland: "?"

Senior Sister suddenly showed a look of realization, and she said: "Oh~~ I remember. Helena, the Helena you saved. Her family background, bloodline, and talent are all top-notch. She is a leader among the heirs of the White Chess family. In all aspects, she is very good."

Roland heard a hint of sarcasm in Senior Sister's words, and felt a little unhappy, and said: "Not that good, a little clingy."

Catherine was slightly stunned, and then her eyes were full of fire: "You toad, stop daydreaming. With your family background and status, would people look up to you?!"

Roland sighed: "Senior Sister, it's useless to say this now."

The more Catherine heard, the more angry she became. At this time, her face was as cold as frost, and her eyes were full of murderous intent. She said in a deep and cold tone: "Roland, you should make it clear to others. So as not to delay a good marriage. The things in the news are just scandals, don't take them seriously! If you want to leave the family, I can also let you leave Alexandra at any time! And give you a piece of territory!"

Roland's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "Is this true!"

Catherine's body swayed slightly, and she trembled with anger.

Her face was like ten thousand years of cold ice, but her eyes were like raging fire and lava, she sneered: "Keep dreaming, Roland. No senior sister will marry you, you have lost the right to choose a spouse in the academy. No, not only in the academy, you will never have the right to choose a spouse in your life and it will be held in my hands!"

Suddenly, Catherine realized that what she said was a bit problematic, and she smashed the crystal ball with a bang.

Roland knew that Senior Sister had gone berserk, and he was so scared that his face was pale, staring at the fireplace, for fear that she would kill him.
