I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

clock tower.

That, is usually the word that should be understood as a tourist attraction in London.

However, the words have completely different meanings among magicians.

It is the heart of the "Association" that manages a large number of magicians, and at the same time, it is also the highest institution for the purpose of nurturing young magicians.

In particular, the ancient landmark building is a holy place in the hearts of magicians. It is the dream of countless magicians to occupy a place in such a place.

On the upper floor of this holy place, at the position corresponding to the scale IV of the ancient clock, a man and woman in the golden period of their lives stood by the window, quietly staring at the square below, and no one spoke. .

It wasn't until a capable woman with short dark red hair and a suit carrying a handbag passed by the square in front of the clock tower that the man sighed.

"It's not too late to regret now, and you can still stop people."

"What's the use of stopping him?" the woman asked with a smile.

"Asking knowingly." The man looked at the woman helplessly, "Of course I will go to Fuyuki on her behalf. I have kept the sacred relic in the study, and you can take it away at any time. After arriving at Fuyuki, you can go directly to Shenji. As long as you don't Destroy his plan and he will cooperate with you - he definitely has a way to keep the servants in the world forever."

"Aren't you jealous at all?" The curve of the woman's mouth became a little deeper, and there was a little more joking in her voice, "I am your wife."

"Jealous, of course." The man's voice was low. It contained a will that was unwilling and lonely but unshakable. "But after experiencing that close call, I have figured out a lot of things. Now I just I want your wish to come true.”

"It was a wish in the past, not now." The woman shook her head, and the lines on her face became softer and softer. "You have figured out a lot of things, and I have also figured out a lot of things. Every woman dreams about a white horse when she is young. Prince, I dreamed of a handsome knight. But it was just a dream. I will wake up eventually, and when I wake up, I will feel ridiculous. Although I will not regret having such a dream, I will not pursue it again. .”

"You can pursue it."

"What's the point of chasing after me? It's just an afterimage of the past. Compared to the past, I value the present more, the people in front of me and our home."

"Sora, you have really changed a lot."

The man smiled, like the warm sunshine in winter.

The sharp edge, the pride, and the defiance of the past have all become smooth and accessible due to the polishing of time, just like a peerless sword with a scabbard.

"Same to you, Kenneth."

Women, on the other hand, are calm and show their charm to the extreme.

There are many beautiful women in this world, but as time goes by, the beautiful faces will gradually grow old and become one of the ordinary women.

Sora was once such a woman, but after a series of changes, she grew up a lot. Now she is no longer the vase with nothing but beauty. Even if her appearance is gone, she can still rely on her temperament. Her life accumulation over the years has become an elegant peony flower.

Therefore, this pair of men and women have an unshakable status today and are so prosperous.

"However, if you decide to go, I will accompany you to the battlefield. After losing so miserably ten years ago, you will be somewhat unwilling to accept it. It is not that no one will attack you with this matter, saying that it is the only one in your life. stain."

After hearing his wife's slightly provocative words, Kenneth waved his hand casually.

"Whatever they say, I don't need to prove anything to anyone. There is definitely some reluctance, but it also makes me realize the reality. It's better for me to just stay in the workshop and do research. Fighting is not suitable for me. Moreover, If you and I are gone, who will take care of Weber? Although he didn't say it, I know that deep down in his heart he really wants to go. To say the least, even if he goes, the protagonist of this war will not be me, then But for Shinji’s base camp, you don’t need to think about it to know how much preparation he has made. But——”

Having said this, Kenneth glanced below and saw that the woman in a suit who had attracted the attention of the two people had disappeared.

"——I can see things that Bartemero can also see. Why would he send her to Fuyuki? She is the best 'executor', an extremely precious talent. If she died in Fuyuki, Bartemero The pressure you bear will never be small.”

"Will she be asked to assist Shenji?" Sora asked.

Kenneth shook his head: "No, the identity of the executor is too sensitive. Why not choose someone from the Clone team?"

"If you care so much, you can ask directly."

"You're right, I'll contact Bartholomew right now."

As he spoke, Kenneth picked up the dedicated communication line on the table.

"I am Al-Meloy, and I want to see Barthelmero."

"What? She's not here? Where did she go? When will she come back?"

"Okay, I understand. Let me know as soon as she comes back."

"Are you not here at this time?"

Sora let out a surprised sigh. She knew how many things had happened recently. Fu Hailin, the Magic Eye Collection Train, Hatteras, the serial murder case seven years ago, nothing is trivial. These matters need to be handled by her personally, and she should not leave at this time no matter what.

"It's said that there are strange movements in the Death Apostles circle, so I took the Clone Brigade to investigate."

This is the reason given to Kenneth by the Legal Affairs Department, and Sola thinks it is reasonable.

"Previous incidents have more or less traces of Death Apostles. It is normal for Bartholomew to do this."

"But I still feel like something is wrong. If I continue -"

"Dong dong dong." Someone knocked on the door in the office.

Kenneth straightened his clothes, sat back at his desk, and then responded: "Come in."

"Excuse me." A girl in a blue dress walked in through the door.

"It's Edelfeldt, what's the matter?" Kenneth knew her name, Luvia Selinta Edelfeldt, a freshman who had just entered the ore class not long ago, and was favored by many people.

"There is an emergency in my hometown and I have to go back and ask you for leave." Luvia handed over the leave request.

"I understand. You can go back and make up for it after you get back from class."

This kind of situation is common in the Clock Tower, and Kenneth has no reason not to approve it.

"Thank you." Luvia nodded politely, stood up and left.

"Continue the topic just now——"

"Ring, ring, ring." The phone rang, and I looked at the caller ID - Weber Velvet.

"Decided? I knew you would do this."

"Go, you don't have to worry about things here, Sora and I are here. We will secretly send people to assist Lenis. After all, that is the El-Meloy classroom."

The communication ended quickly. Neither Webb nor Kenneth were the kind of people who were procrastinating. After a few words, they would not waste any more time. Kenneth put down his phone and prepared to continue discussing Lorelaia with his wife.

However, fate seemed to be playing tricks on him. As soon as his hand left the table, his phone rang again.

The person who called this time had a higher status than Weber. His name was Marisbili Animusfia, one of the thirteen departments in the Clock Tower and the Lord of the Celestial Science Department!

At this time, Kenneth only had one thought in his mind - what is going on? one by one.

PS: Kenneth is no longer averse to technology, and is very comfortable with various high-tech methods.
