Wizard: I want to be a top student
Chapter 38 Coercion and Inducement
Under the coercion of the guards, Ivan came to this manor-style house located in the center of the city for the second time. The butler was waiting at the gate. The old housekeeper led him into the manor to a place that was obviously the main hall.
"Young man, welcome to Carl Manor again."
A middle-aged nobleman greeted him warmly, it was Baron Karl whom he had met last time.
Ivan said: "Lord Baron, your welcome is really impressive."
Baron Karl smiled and said: "Hahaha, I have no choice but to use this method. I hope the people below will not hurt you with their reckless behavior."
Seeing the baron's attitude, Ivan was puzzled. The guard had almost drawn his sword and threatened him before, but now he was acting like this.
He didn't speak, and Baron Karl didn't care.
"Getting back to the subject, I invited Mr. Ivan here this time because of the last test. Didn't you ask me where I could find a wizard? There is one now. This is a good opportunity."
Ivan asked: "Are you in Feiyu Port?"
Baron Karl shook his head slightly: "The person who came to Feiyu Port is a wizard apprentice and a special adult."
Ivan was surprised: "There is only one wizard apprentice?"
Baron Karl said: "That's enough. They represent a real wizard, and wizards are the masters of the human kingdom, including the Principality of Xiangmai, and even Feiyu Port."
The baron's words didn't seem to be false, and he realized that the nobles were also so afraid of wizards, which showed the terror of the power controlled by wizards, or that the group formed by wizards was extremely powerful.
"Must go?"
"Isn't this what you asked for?"
"But the first batch of people who went there died one after another. I cherish my own life more."
Hearing this, Baron Karl looked a little embarrassed. Who made them not block the news in time and let many people know the inside story? This was a dereliction of duty on his part.
He paused, stared at Ivan and said seriously: "You'd better go. This is the city lord's request."
Ivan took a breath and asked again: "Can you tell me the real situation? I don't want to die in a daze."
Baron Karl did not hide this issue.
It turned out that a few months ago, an old wizard appeared nearby, and the old wizard chose to live on a small island in this sea area. The noble originally thought that this was an old wizard who had retired and had given up his pursuit of power and was willing to teach his students carefully.
This is undoubtedly the good fortune of the nobles near Feiyu Port, so they are willing to send qualified people there, including the niece of the city lord and an illegitimate son of Baron Karl himself.
The result was a slap in the face of all the nobles, and bad news came back one after another.
Now that the other party has come to their door again, they have to increase the scope of testing and give civilians a chance to embark on the path of wizards.
‘Replacing noble children with common people is a shame for what you say. ’
Ivan didn't say this, it was useless, he couldn't even protect himself.
Ivan looked at the baron and asked tentatively: "If I am willing to take a trip to Feiyu City, what benefits can the Marichaton family get?" The baron was surprisingly easy to talk to today, so he dared to ask.
Baron Karl said: "I can promise to let your father serve in the Political Bureau and become an official of Feiyu Port."
"Lord Baron, there is no sincerity in your proposal."
After hearing the conditions, Ivan sneered. Officials are not nobles, and they do not have nobles as backers. This is a very embarrassing thing. It is difficult for Lie to achieve anything in his position. What's more, in the future, Lie was unable to carry out missions and would need to abandon Marichaton's foundation, the Giant Shield Mercenary Group.
If you want to join the Cavaliers and play for Earl Hobson, the conditions are more reliable.
Seeing that he was not fooled, Baron Carl revealed the real condition: "If there is a chance, I will recommend you to go to the Wizarding Academy, or recommend another member of the Marichaton family. This is a guarantee made by the Lord of the City on the honor of the Hobson family. "
Ivan understood what the baron meant. If he never came back, he would give the other members of the Marichaton family a chance and send them to a place where they could truly learn how to practice wizards - the wizard academy.
He thought of another question and asked, "After this batch, there won't be a third batch, right?" God knows if other members of the Marichaton family have wizard qualifications.
"I promise you in the name of the Karl family that I will not look for anyone from your Marichaton family in the future."
This question seemed to sting the Baron's pain. Baron Karl's face turned a little dark, but he still gave his assurance.
Ivan nodded silently, accepting Baron Karl's request.
"Someone once asked me whether the pharmacist had any students, and I said no."
"In addition, this time the wizard is not only looking for apprentices, but also servants. Your relatives and friends will not go. I can send your enemies as a gift to you."
Before asking the butler to send him away, Baron Karl gave a few instructions and said he would give him a gift.
Ivan ignored this and only regarded it as a warning and threat.
"Hey! It will take about fifteen days, so we have to make some preparations as much as possible."
Leaving Carl Manor, Ivan let out a long sigh. He really had no choice.
Even though Feiyu Port is just a small and medium-sized city, it has a team composed entirely of knights - the Feather Knights. This knight team is directly under the jurisdiction of Lord Hobson. It is said that there are twenty or thirty people in total, at least half of whom are high-level knights.
Flying Fish Harbor also has patrol and city guard regiments. No matter which force, he and the Marichatton family cannot compete with it. Even if he can escape from Flying Fish Harbor, he will have to become a wanted refugee and live in exile in the wilderness under an assumed name. The Noble Alliance is not talking about this.
It is better to take advantage of this. He has a letter in his pocket, which is branded with the golden salary flower mark and the emblem of the Hobson family. This is the guarantee given by the Lord of the City and a promise of the Hobson family.
On the other side, the old butler returned to the manor to report to Baron Carl.
The old butler is the Baron's confidant, and he couldn't help asking: "Lord Baron, why do you need to be so polite to that civilian boy? His father is just a mid-level knight, and he only has a useless mercenary group under his command."
Carl looked up at the roof, as if thinking about something.
After a pause, he answered: "David, have you forgotten the horror of wizards?"
"But he is not a wizard, not even a wizard apprentice."
"But he has the opportunity to become a wizard, even the city lord is willing to offer a condition in exchange, why should I offend him to death, if he really becomes a real wizard in the end, the Karl family will become the dust in history because of a negligence."
Baron Karl investigated Ivan's experience and found that he was a young man who was good at learning and creating surprises. Such a person should not be ignored for his future value, which is why the city lord is willing to give some benefits.
"You are right, your wisdom makes me feel ashamed."
Thinking of the horror of wizards, the old butler wiped the sweat from his forehead and had to admit that what the baron said and did was the wisest.
