I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

The underground space of Matou's house has been renovated and expanded several times, and is currently divided into three floors and seven workshops.

The first workshop is the exclusive workshop of Justessa and Scathach, and outsiders are not allowed to enter.

The second workshop is the teaching workshop, where Scathach taught his apprentices and where Kenneth previously taught Webb.

The third workshop is the training ground, where Shinji and others practice magic and martial arts.

The fourth workshop is the alchemy workshop, used to make various props.

The fifth workshop is the experimental workshop, used for magic experiments.

The sixth workshop is the medical workshop, where Kenneth receives regular treatment.

The seventh workshop is a spare workshop and will only be activated when all workshops are occupied.

Shinji knocked on the door of the fifth workshop.

A slightly harsh voice came out of the workshop through the special magic loop.

"Who? Didn't you tell me not to disturb me until noon?"

"Mr. Kenneth, it's me, Shinji, with something urgent."

"Wait for me for three minutes. When you come in, remember to prepare magic to resist poisonous gas."

It seemed that Kenneth was conducting some kind of dangerous experiment.

180 seconds later, not a second more, not a second less, Kenneth opened the door of the workshop. Punctuality was his good habit.

The workshop was filled with silver mist. Because the workshop was isolated by a barrier, the fog did not drift outside the workshop.

"What are you—?"

"While trying to transform the 'Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid', what you see is the result of failure, half mist and half liquid. Is there something wrong with the pressure adjustment? Forget it, think about it later, what do you want from me? ?”

Kenneth, standing in the center of the workshop, said as he activated the pre-prepared spell to gradually recover the escaped magic mercury.

"I received a message from Weber last night. Someone guessed the connection between him and you."

Having said this, Shenji took a special look at Kenneth and found that his expression basically did not change.

"Why don't you seem surprised?"

"Yes." Kenneth nodded, "Although the fact that Weber and I participated in the Holy Grail War at the same time is hidden, it can still be found out with the ability of the Clock Tower nobles if they really want to. Because of Weber's low magic qualifications, basically No one will doubt him. But recently, in order to stabilize the hearts of the El-Meloy faction that is on the verge of being broken, you have had several papers published in my name——"

"Yes, with your consent."

"——The problem lies here. Even if the paper has not passed through Weber's hands, the fact that I declare my sense of existence will arouse the suspicion of interested people. I have lost contact with the El-Meloy faction for such a long time, and since Where did you obtain the intelligence? Of course, there are many possible ways, and the option of obtaining intelligence through Webber ranks low, but as long as it exists, someone will investigate, and it will be a matter of time before it is discovered."

"I see, the factional struggle in the Clock Tower is really troublesome." Shenji sighed while secretly applauding his two wise decisions.

One of the wise decisions was to save Kenneth. Although this Lord has an arrogant personality and is difficult to get along with, he is, after all, the leader of a faction and is familiar with the various factions and rules of the Clock Tower. Without him, Shen Er's various actions would never have been so smooth, and he might even have been influenced by the giants in the Clock Tower to influence him.

The second wise thing is to accept things when they are good and never be greedy. If he is really greedy and wants to swallow up the Archibalud family, let alone whether he can swallow it up smoothly, even if he does swallow it up, he will not be able to defeat the conspirators from other forces. Cooperating like this on an equal footing, working hard in exchange for benefits, and letting the professionals deal with the professionals is the wisest choice.

After explaining the reason clearly, Kenneth finally showed a hint of doubt: "The only thing that surprises me is that it will take some time before anyone will doubt Weber. Which sect has such a good nose? Is it Bartholomew? Or is it Bartholomew? Sophie?"

"None of them." Shenji smiled and shook his head, "She is the little princess of the Archizolti family, the branch of your Archibalud family."

"It's Lenis?" Kenneth's expression changed more obviously than ever.

"You know her?"

"You know, I am her half magic teacher. She has excellent magic qualifications, especially in magic induction. I have never seen anyone better than her among her peers. She is also very smart, although she is from a separate family. , the possibility of taking charge of El-Meloy in the future is not high, but there is still no problem in taking charge of a classroom. I originally planned to hand over the El-Meloy classroom that you asked Weber to inherit in the future. But since she Judging from her performance, a classroom seems to be a bit underwhelming. Should we train her to be an assistant to the lord? Or directly improve her succession. No, it depends on her compatibility with the Archibald family lineage."

Detailed analysis, grasp of talents and planning fully prove that Kenneth is a qualified family owner. Perhaps he performed very poorly in the Fourth Holy Grail War, but this performance does not represent everything about him. For a scholar-type leader who is in a high position and is pampered, the Holy Grail War is really not compatible with him. In fact, being able to become one of the twelve lords of the Clock Tower and lead the El-Meloy faction to glory, Kenneth is definitely a qualified faction leader and family leader-excluding personal involvement in danger.

After the blow of the Holy Grail War, Kenneth has learned from the pain and realized his character flaws and weaknesses. The Clock Tower will usher in a more powerful and invulnerable lord. Shinji has full confidence in Kenneth like this.

"What do we do next?"

"Now that we've been discovered, there's no need to hide anymore. Prepare to build momentum and return to London in seven days."

"Your treatment."

"The regeneration of the magic circuit has ended, and the subsequent adaptation period is the same everywhere."

"Okay, I'll contact Weber right away to reassure him."

Shinji said as he took out his cell phone and dialed the transoceanic number to London. There is a nine-hour time difference between London and Japan, and it is exactly the time when Weber should go to bed, which is a small revenge for the harassment last night.

The call was quickly connected, but the voice on the other end was not a familiar male voice, but a girl's voice.

"Is this Mr. Kenneth? I am Lenise from the Archizolti family. You taught me magic."

"Don't take my phone. I told you that's not Mr. Kenneth." This was Weber's voice.

"Hey, is anyone listening?"

"I told you all——"

Shenji and Kenneth looked at each other, and after exchanging expressions and eyes, Kenneth spoke.

"Webb, there's no need to stop Lenis."

"Teacher Kenneth (His Excellency)?"

"It's me. Weber, Lenis, I won't ask why you are staying together at this time. I have something to give you."

"What's up?"

"Please give your orders."

"Spread the news that Kenneth El-Meloy Archibalud, who has been missing for three years, is coming back."

I don't know if it was a coincidence or intentional, but when the word "come back" was spoken, the silver mist completely shrank and gathered behind Kenneth, adding a special aura to this lord.

Another new book by a two-dimensional author from the same period as the treacherous (harmony) boy is on the shelves. It is called "The Demon of Naruto". Friends who are interested can go and support it. **At least the same, updates and integrity are guaranteed.
