Looking at the people watching, Juan Javier didn't want to defend himself. He just said to everyone: "It seems that our time together is going to end today. Let's just take care of ourselves from now on." After saying that, he turned around and shouted. Shouted: "Girl, pack your things, we are ready to go home."
The word "girl" was learned from Gablesh Tripwood as a term he sometimes called his own apprentices. Because it is interesting and feels friendly, Juan sometimes calls his student Anmari that way.
As for the girl who walked out of the college gate as soon as she heard the call, she was struggling to carry a large box and walked slowly step by step. When Juan saw this, he smiled and said: "You are ready. Why don't you use the Light Object Technique or the Giant Power Technique? It will be easier to move things."
"Ah, I forgot." Anmari quickly put down the box and took out a short wand to cast a spell.
Novak, who was lying on the ground, said harsh words without giving up: "Don't think you can escape, my people will hunt you to the ends of the earth."
Seeing that there was still blood on the other party's severed limb, Juan's original intention was to teach the person a lesson, not to kill. So he performed a Flame Snake Technique, using cautery to stop the opponent's bleeding while enjoying the sweet scream. Until his voice became hoarse and he no longer had the strength to scream, Novak gasped and scolded, his eyes filled with hatred, glaring at the person in front of him.
But this hatred could not last long before it was replaced by shock. A huge ship fell from the sky, bringing up a strong wind that almost made people unable to stand. That was the highest-level war machine of the Leon District Chapter, the airship Gauss Bertone. Juan Javier looked proudly at the man who fell to the ground with only half life left, and said:
"Although it is not as powerful as the Great Sage's Tower, I still doubt that any of you would dare to chase it. You will need to send someone who can fly, and it will be a war-level mobilization."
After finishing speaking, Juan no longer looked at the fallen man, and walked directly to John Goodman in the crowd, stretched out his beckoning hand, and said: "Old John, in my opinion, you should also be here. If you can’t survive anymore, how about following me? Re-establish such an academy in Leon District to continue that person’s last wish.”
The old warrior muttered: "Lord Tripwood is not dead yet. What is his last wish?"
In fact, the news that someone ran away at night has not yet come. But Juan could probably guess what would happen next, which was that someone died or someone escaped. So he smiled and said: "What's the difference? Anyway, you know what I mean. What do you think?"
After only hesitating for a short moment, John Goodman shook Juan's hand and said, "There's nowhere to go anyway. I originally wanted to devote the rest of my life here, but since I'm not wanted here, let's find another place." What does the place matter?”
"Welcome, my friend. Bring the great fear here to the children of Leon District. Wahahahahaha"
Not only was her own teacher recruiting people, but Anne-Marie also ran up to Sisters Wendy and Charlotte, also stretched out her hand and said, "Let's go together, okay?"
Charlotte, who was not familiar with the world, intuitively got close to this girl who also had no scheming intentions. But she didn't dare to make up her mind, but looked at the sister beside her with hopeful eyes.
In order to protect this gifted sister, Wendy saw far more adults' duplicity and malice hidden deep in their actions than girls of the same age. Just like yesterday, amid the cheers of most people, Wendy felt a chill as she looked at the back of the man who was driven away. She was at a loss and hugged her sister tightly, not knowing where to go.
Now the invitation from Anne Marie is an opportunity for her sisters to escape from this place. But she still had concerns and looked at the teacher who invited her. Wendy understood that Annemarie was not the person who could make such a decision. Another concern is that his parents still live in Xijia District. She doesn't want to see whether her actions will lead to retaliation against her parents.
Sensing her sister's concerns, Anmari also looked at her teacher. Juan Javier couldn't stand the expressions and eyes of his students. So he waved his hand and said: "If you think you want to take them with you, then go ahead. Go pack your things quickly and just take some important things. This is not moving, this is fleeing. You have to run away before the pursuers come." Just drop it."
Someone said it as if it was serious, but in fact Juan just wanted to create some tension and didn't want the two girls to drag their feet. He believed that unless someone could carry the Tower of the Great Sage on his back to hunt down an airship, even the temple warrior captain who also served as the queen would not be able to defeat the Gosbottom, which wanted to escape... It seemed a bit strange to say this. question. In fact, it’s not impossible to give it a try.
"Our parents..." Wendy said.
After receiving her teacher's promise, Anmari said confidently: "Don't worry, take your parents with you, just take a detour on the boat flying in the sky."
Huan also had some small complaints about his students casually agreeing to others, and he was led astray. Before meeting that man's apprentice, Ann was such a well-behaved and obedient girl.
While waiting for Old John and sisters Wendy and Charlotte to pack their things, Juan Javier directed the airship to descend in the open space and at the same time lower the connecting trestle. Annemarie first carried the box onto the airship, while Juan was waiting on the ground. At this time, many apprentices gathered around.
The children who came forward all had bewildered expressions. Watching a great magician preparing to leave the academy, the man who took over as the academy's steward was beaten to the ground. No matter how stupid they are, they still feel the uncertainty about the future.
Lenny, as the leader of this group of children, stood up and asked tremblingly: "Master Javier," continuing the rules from the beginning of the academy, before becoming an official magician, the apprentices will all call the teachers "sir" instead of "sir". teacher. The latter title has its sacred meaning and corresponding responsibilities. "Then what should we do?"
Juan just smiled at the group's confusion. Just like his charming smile in the past, he said: "This is your own problem. My responsibility is limited to the work content of 30 gold per month, and the salary I received this month is only to pay me Last month’s salary. If I’m willing not to take this month’s salary, I can do whatever I want as long as it doesn’t hurt you.”
"But this college cannot live without you, sir." Lenny begged, almost crying.
"No, believe me, no one is necessary. If there is, it won't be me. What I can teach, any magician can also teach what they can't teach. Even if I teach you, I don't understand. So don't look at me like your dad ran off with the wild woman outside, and mom ran off with the wild man outside. It won't help. Okay, leave quickly, you have classes later. Come on, you shouldn’t waste your time here.”
"But...the course later is yours..."
"Oh, that's really unlucky. Let's study on our own then."
In addition to Lenny, there were other apprentices who made pleas, many of whom did not cheer for someone's departure yesterday. But Juan Javier seems to have fully utilized his gag skills in addition to magic. He can handle some women who have had one-night flings with ease, but it is not easy to deal with these children. Besides, he didn't want to say too harsh words, because they were all apprentices of other people's families, so it was meaningless.
When the cry of the airship leaving the land sounded, it seemed to echo the early morning wake-up call about a year and a half ago, sounding the closing prelude to Eton College in Chengguo.
Shurion was killed by the Tower of the Great Sage in front of the central tower of the Five Alliance City. Novak, the new secretary-general of the academy who had lost all his limbs, did not come back, nor did the few magicians who were close to him and the warriors belonging to his family.
The four magicians sent to study by the Kingdom of Reunion also left. Instead of trying to revive the Chengguo Eton College, they were preparing to build a royal magic academy belonging to their kingdom.
Even Eli Huber and Madame Du Li, the founders of the academy, have left. They are just employed without a salary, so there is no need to pay. What's more, we have to discuss the issue of abandonment with those children. They want to discuss the issue of betrayal. Lin's forced departure was also a very serious matter in their hearts.
At this point, all the teachers in the college dispersed.
However, because the apprentices were organized into an autonomous internship brigade, they did not disperse for a while. But the purpose of the dozen or so candidates for heirs from the Kingdom of Frank was to have someone give an evaluation of them. Now that the One is gone, there is no need for them to stay. Therefore, people from Frank Kingdom became the first batch of apprentices to pack up and leave.
Then came the nobles or merchants who had families in Wulian City, and finally all the children. Because the funds found in the purser's office were exhausted, and even the most basic food and clothing were in question, no one was willing to guard this dead cemetery.
Lenny, who considered himself the king of children, had some ideas and didn't want the people who had finally gathered together to disperse. Unfortunately, no one wanted to listen to him this time. He once described a bright future, as long as the person who deliberately wanted to drive away the apprentices was not in this academy.
That person is gone, and the bright future promised has not appeared. It can be said that Lenny is indispensable for the academy to fall into this predicament. Children may be inexperienced and easily deceived, but that doesn't mean they can't understand what's happening to them.
When they do face losses, someone must be held responsible for those losses. Blame it on the person who was forced to leave? Something doesn't seem right. Blame the guy who left in the airship...? That One cannot afford to offend. Then it seems that there is only one person left who can be responsible, or who can be blamed.
So this time, no matter what Lenny said, no one was willing to listen to him or follow him. In the end, only the school building was left of this once-famous college, with no living person walking inside.
