"I'm the princess's man."
This sentence, like a frozen bomb on the frozen lake, exploded in the classroom, leaving all the students silent.
The entire classroom fell into dead silence for an instant.
Most of the students at the Royal Academy of Magic come from prestigious families with prominent family backgrounds.
They are at the top and have some understanding of the future situation of the empire.
Especially the fact that the emperor was planning to let the princess inherit the throne, even if it was just heard by people, it was basically spread everywhere.
However, many students were still dissatisfied with the emperor's decision.
In their hearts, the eldest prince who is known as the "perfect hero" should be the successor to the throne.
The eldest prince has guarded the south for more than ten years and made great military exploits.
He protected the territory of the empire and safeguarded the lives of the people.
Moreover, the eldest prince has a gentle personality, has the demeanor of an emperor, and enjoys a high reputation among the people.
After all, what people like most is a hero, especially such a perfect hero.
Although, today's Princess Aurelion, her fame and influence are indeed growing.
But many people think that this is just because her private teacher is Victor.
Her own contributions and achievements were obviously not outstanding enough compared to those of the eldest prince.
However, no one said it, and no one dared to stand up and say it.
Because as Professor Victor said:
"I'm the princess's man."
After hearing this, the eldest prince, who had been preparing to say something, was suddenly speechless.
He lowered his head and thought for a long time, then suddenly smiled with relief:
"I understand, Count Victor."
After the eldest prince finished saying this, he turned to face the students and slowly walked to his seat.
The golden armors collided with each other, and a slight sound of metal collisions sounded intermittently in the classroom.
Amidst the looks of shock and confusion, the eldest prince walked to the lecture seat.
As a result, I looked around and couldn't find an empty seat.
He smiled bitterly a few times and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
As expected of Victor's class, the seats were packed.
In desperation, he walked towards the last corner of the classroom.
At this time, the students on one side took the initiative to stand up after seeing the eldest prince searching for a seat in vain.
With reverence, he mustered up the courage to ask the eldest prince:
"Your Highness, why don't you sit here?"
The eldest prince turned to look at him, showed a kind smile, and shook his head:
"No, thanks."
"You are a student, so you should sit here and study hard."
Even rejection is filled with inexplicable affinity, making the students feel particularly friendly.
The students all looked at the prince who was walking back, and their eyes followed the golden armor to the end of the classroom.
The eldest prince leaned against the wall, folding his arms and smiling.
His eyes were gentle and thoughtful, quietly observing the front, unwilling to break the tranquility in the classroom.
This quiet atmosphere immersed the students in a mysterious atmosphere.
They gradually regained their composure and turned their attention to the blackboard full of magical knowledge.
The students were concentrating on recording what was written on the blackboard.
Their pen tips slid quickly across the paper, recording every piece of wonderful magical knowledge.
Even if Professor Victor did not take the initiative to teach, these students showed a high degree of self-discipline.
The huge blackboard in front of the classroom also looks mysterious and attractive.
It became even more magical under Victor's use, and the originally boring content seemed to be given life.
Whenever the students seemed to have finished recording, the white writing on the blackboard would be gently ignited by a red flame.
Like a dancing elf, it keeps changing its form.
This cycle continues, and the students are busy writing under the urging of time.
With the rustling sound of pen and paper, time passed quietly.
A crisp ringing of the bell marked the end of Professor Victor's lecture.
The students quickly packed up their notes and stationery almost simultaneously and prepared to leave in an orderly manner.
Perhaps out of awe of the eldest prince, they organized things much faster than usual.
On leaving, each student would pass by Professor Victor and bow to him with deep respect.
Thanks to Professor Victor for giving them this wonderful course.
Although he didn't say a word the whole time.
It wasn't until the last student bowed and left that the eldest prince loosened his arms and walked slowly towards Victor:
"Count Victor."
"Do you have time now?"
Victor did not raise his head, gently closed the magic book in his hand, and responded calmly:
"Very good, Your Highness."
"At least you didn't disturb my students."
He stood up from the wooden chair as he spoke.
The chair under him also turned into scattered rattan, gradually floating into his windbreaker.
"Maybe I can give you a moment to talk."
Hearing Victor's words, the eldest prince breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Victor looking around.
"It's just, are you really going to talk to me here?"
Victor's words stunned the eldest prince for a moment, and then he followed Victor's line of sight and looked around.
The doorways and windows of the classroom were packed with curious students.
They leaned forward, almost squeezing together.
It seems that as long as the students below are not careful, the students behind will rush into the classroom and fall to the floor.
It was the same situation at the windows, where students pressed their cheeks against the glass, eyes wide.
His ears were perked up, as if he was observing the conversation between Victor and the eldest prince attentively.
The eldest prince smiled awkwardly and said with some embarrassment:
"I'm so sorry, Count Victor."
"I didn't notice that."
Victor then turned around and took another look at the eldest prince.
Then, he gently raised his arm and made a crisp snap of his fingers. A blue magic formation was constructed instantly, and complex runes and shining light spots quickly covered the two people's feet.
The complex and clear light spots suddenly overwhelmed the blue formation, and thick lines gradually climbed up the ankles of the two people.
The light flashed, and the two of them turned into tiny shimmers of light that rose into the sky and disappeared.
There was only a moment of silence in the entire classroom.
The students watched in stunned silence as Victor and the eldest prince turned into light and disappeared.
The swaying crowd lost their balance and collapsed to the ground.
The students posted on the windows had shocked expressions, their eyes widened and their mouths opened, as if they were still reminiscing about the scene just now:
"I said... did you see it?"
"That teleportation magic... I don't think I saw the professor release it early."
"Is this the value of a chief professor?"
"What are you thinking about? None of you have forgotten the sea battle before, Professor!"
Amid these whispers, the students gradually came to their senses.
Originally, they were expecting to overhear some of the conversation, but now not even a figure was seen.
Hey, it's gone.
Just as these students stood up from the ground, ready to leave.
Suddenly, three figures walked over from not far away.
They were walking through the crowd towards the classroom where Victor was just now.
Seeing this, the students suddenly became a little confused.
Associate Professor Heni, Chief Erica, and...who is the person behind Associate Professor Heni?
As soon as the students saw Heni, they stepped aside and consciously made way for a passage.
Sephiroth, who was wearing a robe, followed closely behind. As she walked between the students, she felt many curious eyes.
The students all looked at this mysterious woman curiously, secretly guessing her identity.
At this time, Erica happened to glance at the empty classroom and shook her head at Henie.
"No one is here."
Seeing this, Heni had no choice but to turn around, look at the students avoiding each other, and asked them in a gentle tone:
"classmates."
"Did you see where Professor Victor went?"
…
Two glimmers of light fell from the sky like threads,
The moment it touched the ground, the blue light gradually formed two familiar figures.
Victor and Albany appear together in the Arcanum.
The eldest prince felt dizzy, and his eyes were filled with blue light spots.
He managed to steady his body, but his head was still filled with a dizzy feeling.
His legs were shaking, as if the ground beneath his feet had become as soft as cotton.
There was no way, he had rarely experienced magic like teleportation.
Victor raised his head and his eyes fell on the eldest prince who had just recovered.
Obviously, his dazzling golden armor looked particularly dazzling in the arcane hall.
This has just landed, and it has attracted the attention of many students.
They gathered around and discussed secretly.
The appearance of the eldest prince attracted countless glances, and Albany also turned his gaze back to these students.
It's obviously noon now, so logically, it should be the students' meal time.
But there were still so many students in this arcane hall, which surprised Albany.
Don’t you mages actually have lunch?
Having lived in the army for a long time, he really didn't understand these students who forgot about food and sleep.
However, Victor seemed to have no intention of slowing down and waiting. As soon as he landed, he was already walking towards the center of the Arcane Pavilion.
Seeing this, the eldest prince also hurriedly quickened his pace and followed Victor.
Seeing the two people gradually moving away, the students began to guess with confidence:
"Is that golden armor the eldest prince?"
"I heard that the eldest prince went straight to the academy just after he came back today. It turns out this news is true."
"Why does the eldest prince want to find Professor Victor?"
But the two of them were destined not to hear their speculations.
At this time, Victor had already brought Albany to the center of the arcane hall.
What fell in the center of the arcane hall was an extremely huge formation glowing with blue light.
A hazy shimmer rose from the edge of the formation, as if forming an illusory ring in the sky.
The wave totem engraved on it is beating randomly under the influence of magic power.
Victor had already stepped into the center of the magic circle and turned to look at the eldest prince:
"What do you want to say to me?"
The eldest prince was slightly startled and looked around.
Looking at the many students around him, he knew this was not the place to talk.
Just when he was about to remind Victor, he also stepped into the huge magic circle in the center.
And almost instantly, a wave of power surged around.
The water level rising from the center of the formation gradually submerged the two people standing in it.
After the wave rolled for several meters, it returned to the center of the formation and gradually faded away.
The two people standing among them also disappeared.
The surrounding space seems to have experienced the distortion of time and space, and the hazy starry sky and tumbling magic waves are intertwined in this illusory space.
The eldest prince slowly opened his eyes, looked at the strange changes around him, and couldn't help but said to himself in surprise:
"This...could this be..."
Recalling Victor's lecture at the academy, the eldest prince was also present.
At that time, he also personally experienced what Victor said was called a 'copy'.
The special world formed by these independent spaces not only allows students to practice practical skills, but also ensures absolute safety.
Although the experience in the lecture theater was only a simplified version at the time, it is said that copies will be continuously refined and housed in the academy.
But now, the world he sees is more magical than ever.
After the news of this novel thing spread throughout the royal capital, it was the first time for the eldest prince to see it with his own eyes.
He once thought about how amazing the effect would be if this technology could be applied to the military to train soldiers to deal with various crises.
However, despite the emotion, the eldest prince quickly recovered his emotions.
He looked embarrassed, took a deep breath, and solemnly said to Victor:
"Count Victor...no, Senator Cravenna."
At the same time, a terrifying magical scene emerged in the eldest prince's mind.
That was the first time Victor entered the monster's crack.
The black dragon suddenly entered the crack, and the terrifying magic burst out from the crack.
To this day, Albany still remembers it very clearly.
Thinking of this, he raised his head and spoke firmly to Victor:
"I hope you can assist me in resolving the current war in the South."
Victor put his hands in his pockets, turned his back to the eldest prince, and turned his face slightly.
He looked at the eldest prince calmly and said calmly:
He looked at the eldest prince calmly and said calmly:
"Your Highness, I think I have stated my position before..."
"I won't embarrass you, Senator Cravenner."
The eldest prince stretched out an arm and knocked three times on his chest.
Boom, boom, boom.
The golden armor made a dull echo, echoing in this silent and illusory space:
"I will voluntarily give up the throne."
