On the fourth day after returning home, Cody had not had a moment of leisure in the previous two days. Starting from the second day, Cody, who was still lying in bed dreaming, was forcibly dragged up by his younger brother Brandy, and was raped before his eyes were opened. Waiting to dress and wash. I really don’t know what his father is up to. He just went home and insisted on throwing a big banquet. He invited the city lord and many of his own comrades and brothers to the house for dinner, saying it was to celebrate Cody’s return as a magician. But Cody knew that his father I just want to show off.

Show off, show off, and insist on asking Cody to accompany him, saying that he is an adult, and it is a banquet held for him. Cody, who was not very good at drinking, was drunk to death by a group of old drunkards from the Legion, and almost settled on a wife. Fortunately, Cody, who was still a little conscious, heard the other party's name and was immediately attracted by the comparison that appeared in his mind. My waist was even thicker and my thighs were so frightened that I sobered up. I quickly said that my college had regulations and I couldn't get married before graduation.

However, after a few drinks, it was not meaningless. At least I met the three magicians I met by chance a long time ago. But before, I only glanced at them from a distance. This time I had a close contact and found that they were three magicians. There were three old men who looked about the same age as Master Gan.

The three arrogant old men put away the arrogance on their faces and softened their tone after learning that Cody was studying at Barton College. Cody tried several times and found that the three of them were all low-level magicians. Only one of them was stronger than him and could cast two intermediate magics. Cody didn't understand how someone with such strength could graduate from Barton Academy. To graduate from the academy, one had to reach the level of a great magician. He didn't notice the envy in the other person's eyes at all.

In any case, the three of them were all magicians, and they were all seniors, so Cody still gave them enough respect.

Cody, who had been tortured for two days, was now free and no longer had to socialize. Although Lant doesn't usually have much to do, he is the senior leader of the Third Legion after all. He spends a lot of time supervising the training of soldiers in the legion. At most, he can only spare these two days to entertain other people at home to show off. Everyone has basically been invited, and now they have to return to the legion at important times every day.

In the backyard of the Viscount's Mansion, Cody put down the heavy wooden sword in his hand, went bare-chested, took the towel hanging on the shelf next to him and wiped his face. Then he looked at the cloth who was slumped on the ground and breathing heavily. Randy was a little relieved. This little guy who only knew how to wipe his nose after his butt when he was a child has really grown up now and dares to challenge himself. Although the age gap between the two is not small, he does not use his fighting spirit and then uses training. The big wooden sword used for strength could not defeat him for a while.

But after all, Brandy was still young, and she was far behind Cody in terms of experience and other physical aspects. After fighting hard for a quarter of an hour, she was still unable to fight anymore. However, Cody was also very tired. Two years of rest had made his body much weaker than before, and he had to be careful not to really hurt Brandy or let him take advantage. But to be honest, this boy is becoming more and more like his father. I don’t know how much he has learned secretly.

Seeing Brandy who was able to get up after taking a break, Cody smiled and said: "How is it? Can it still work? Do you want to continue?"

Brandi shook his head vigorously, his voice a little weak and hoarse: "No, I'm exhausted. Brother, you are still as good as before. When I fought with other people, I have never been so strenuous."

Cody rubbed the towel in the basin for a few times, wring out the water and threw it to Brandi, "What the hell, your brother, I ate and slept every day at Barton Academy. At most, I just practiced magic and did The most strenuous thing in my life is grabbing food in the cafeteria, and now my stomach is starting to bulge, and I feel very tired after walking a few steps."

After wiping her face, Brandi put a towel on her head, walked over to Cody and said, "Brother, is the magic academy really what you said? Why don't you understand anything about it from the book?" Same."

Slapping Brandy on the head, Cody laughed and scolded: "What's the point of lying to you? Didn't I tell you that night? Don't believe books in the future. Books are all lies. How can there be any All noble magicians are deceiving others, and none of them are normal people. It's a pity that the academy does not allow outsiders to enter, otherwise I would have taken you there."

As he spoke, Cody thought of the weird senior Moses, Lily who didn't look like a mentor, the crazy and untrustworthy vice-president Sfulin, and many students who could be seen everywhere in the academy every day and would suddenly scream strangely. In comparison, , I still feel that Master Gan is the most normal, he just talks less.

Brandy shook her head and said: "I'm not going. I'm going to the Zhanzhan Academy. I want to be a sky knight like my father. My father said that magicians are just a bunch of skinny bamboo stalks and sickly seedlings. If the wind is strong, they can blow." Run. Moreover, the Alton family has always been a knight, and it was not until my father received the title of Viscount that he became the first sky knight in the history of the family. My father said that there is no hope for you, and I want to continue the glory of the family."

Cody's mind was confused. How had this kid been brainwashed by his father? He was already like a piece of wood. "You're a bastard. Just listen to his nonsense. The only knights in our family are my grandfather and father." Well, if you go up a few generations, you won't even be able to find the three words Alton, and the glory will continue. Also, if the magician is so miserable, as for the past two days, he has just seen people all day long. Showing off that I am a magician? Besides, Brandi, glory does not need to be extended, but must be fought for by oneself."

Cody wanted to teach him a few more words to dispel all the knights and glory in this kid's mind, so that when his mind gets hot, he would be on the battlefield. If something unexpected happened, he would be the only one left with the task of continuing the family.

But before he said a few words, the old butler trotted over and said, "Master Cody, someone is looking for you outside."

"Who's looking for me?" Cody turned around in confusion, not knowing who it could be. After all, I found out that the three people from Keda had returned to the Zhan Zhan Academy after this year's vacation. It was during this time that I was on my way home. Because I took the wrong road, I could avoid the opportunity to meet on the way. Except for Between the three of them, Cody didn't seem to have any other close friends.

Suddenly Cody said something foul and said: "I almost forgot, Giroud, are there two people of the same age as me, shorter than me, and a little skinny. Well, I should be able to tell that they are civilians."

The old butler Giroud replied: "Yes, Master Cody, they are two civilians. I thought they were ordinary civilians at first, so I didn't plan to tell you, but I remember you said that there are two classmates of yours at Barton College in the city. , I’m worried that they are the classmates you mentioned, so I’m here to ask you.”

"Yes, yes, it's them. You bring them in quickly. I'll take a shower and change clothes. Ask them to wait for me." He almost forgot about the appointment with the Solo brothers, so he said that he couldn't remember anything. Things happened, Cody hurriedly ran to where he lived, shouting as he ran, "Brandy, hurry up and change your clothes. I will take you out to dinner later and introduce you to my friends."

In the reception hall, Zoro and Jet were sitting a little stiffly, with their hands on their thighs feeling a bit at a loss. After having been in contact with Cody for a long time, they no longer have the inferiority complex they had before, and they could not feel the superiority of nobles when facing civilians from Cody, but when they returned home, they were reminded of their own identity.

Originally, the two brothers were still debating whether to come to Cody or not. After all, the Viscount Mansion they were going to was a place they had never imagined before. However, after their parents went out to work, the two brothers who were the only ones left at home came to the Viscount Mansion on the appointed day. When they told the guard that they were looking for Cody, they saw the suspicion and ridicule in the guard's eyes. The two brothers couldn't wait to see him. Turn around and leave. Fortunately, an old man came out and asked me to wait while he went to report. Soon the old man came back with a smile on his face and respectfully invited the two of them in. Only then did he enter the mansion for the first time under the suspicious eyes of the guards.

The two of them looked at the pastries on the table and ate them. They were used to eating the food in the college, but now they were really not used to it when they returned home. Although they didn’t dislike the food they had eaten at home for more than ten years, they just felt that It's not satisfying enough, I just want to be able to make enough money like the tutors in the college in the future, so that my parents who gave birth to me can live a life that they didn't dare to think about before. The two of them just sat there, swallowing their saliva and drinking tea. Speaking of which, the tea in the Viscount Mansion tasted very good.

After drinking several pots of tea, Cody and Brandi, who had already packed up, walked out dressed in smart clothes, walked up to the Solo brothers, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, there were so many things going on when I got home, I almost... I forgot about the date I made an appointment. By the way, this is my brother Brandy." He grabbed a piece of pastry from the table and stuffed it into his mouth, and said dissatisfied: "The chef needs to learn his skills. The pastries at home are really good. It's not as good as those in the college. No wonder you don't eat. Just eat a little to cushion your stomach. Let's go out and find a place to eat. With your help, I asked my mother for a lot of money. Usually when I go out by myself, she I can't bear to give you much." He then stuffed a few pastries into Solo and Jet's hands and led them outside.

The old housekeeper looked at the people leaving and suddenly realized that no wonder the two classmates of the young master were just drinking tea. It turned out that they didn't like their own cakes. They were really like magicians. It seems that we really need to let the guys in the kitchen learn more, otherwise the young master will make people laugh if he brings his magician friends home in the future.

The best hotel in Norma City is of course the Shenghui Hotel. However, Cody weighed his wallet and found that it was really not enough for four people to spend money there, so he had to settle for the next best thing. Except for the decoration, service and background, everything else could not be beat. Lose the Jinkarai Hotel of Shenghui Hotel. Although it is lunch time now, and the guests in the hotel are already crowded with each other, Cody still wears Carter's tiger skin and reserves a private room. In Norma City, the name of the Alton family still plays a big role. .

Cody quickly ordered a lot of things, waved his hand to the waiter to go out, and said to the two of them: "It may not be as good as the Shenghui Hotel, but the taste is not bad at all. The main reason is that I am short of money, otherwise I would invite you to come." Let’s have a meal at Shenghui Hotel.”

Seeing Cody ordering a lot of dishes, Jet and Solo looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and said helplessly: "This is already very good. We are different from you. We were born in a wealthy family. For us, is it cold?" It's good to not be hungry anymore, but it's extremely difficult to improve the food once in a while. At your house just now, you thought we didn't like to eat those things, but in fact, we just saw those pastries you disliked before going to the academy. .You don’t know how much saliva we both swallowed. If I weren’t afraid of embarrassing you, I would have handled those plates of food by myself.”

Only then did Cody remember their previous identities. In the academy, no one cares about other people's identities and family backgrounds. Everyone is treated equally, and only magicians who are better than themselves will be respected.

Cody waved his hand and said: "I don't care about this, just come to my house to eat whatever you want from now on. If you don't have money or treasures, you will have enough food. Besides, your status is different now. Study hard with Instructor Omus and wait until you graduate." Are you still short of money? I have heard that some outstanding students can stay in the college as acting tutors after graduation, and the remuneration is also very good. Even if they fail to stay, as a magician, no matter where they go , if you want money, it’s just a matter of waving your hands.”

Zoro nodded and agreed with Cody: "Indeed, Jet and I also feel that we are lucky to be able to get such an opportunity. We had already accepted our fate. After all, our bodies have been weak since childhood. Not to mention the War College, even if We didn’t have the chance to get into other colleges. It’s just that something went wrong on the day of the Zhan Zhan College selection. I still applied for a try. Who knew that Zhan Zhan College was not selected, but I became a magician inexplicably. You know, before that, I I don’t even know what a magician is.”

"I don't know what's so strange about magicians, and I don't know either. At the beginning, I just had the idea that no matter where I go, as long as it's not the Zhan Zhan College. You don't know, I have been full of fear of the prison-like place of the Zhan Zhan College since I was a child. It wasn’t that I really didn’t dare, so I ran away from home on the day of the selection. You don’t know, but on the day of the selection, when I heard that I had passed the review, I felt like the sky was falling. I originally went to Barton College with the idea of ​​​​escape, Who knew that I would be accepted as a disciple by a teacher? What does this mean? It means that I am extremely talented. No matter where I go, people are rushing to get me."

The two made contemptuous gestures to Cody, and Brandy turned her head to the side, shameless to look at her brother.
