"You have a good student."
In the huge drawing room, Count Gremory and Maester Lemon sat opposite each other, with Eli standing aside.
The Earl was holding a glass of bright red wine in his hand and looking at Eli with admiration.
"Yes, Eli is indeed a studious student, but I didn't expect that he also has unique experience in horse training." Bachelor Lemon also smiled and looked at Eli with relief.
With Eli's help, he successfully kept the count's donation in the library and solved the salary problem of dozens of people at the bottom of the library. In addition to being a good thing for the library, it was also a good thing for him.
He felt that he should reward Eli well after returning.
"Eli, you sit down too!" Seeing Eli still standing, the count hooked his hand and motioned for him to sit down.
"No, Lord Earl, I'd better stand." Eli refused with a smile.
In addition to being polite, a slightly further distance would also help him observe the count more carefully.
If you look closely at Eli's eyes, you can see that the mysterious witchcraft in his eyes is being used, and the invisible spiritual power is collecting the count's data.
This was his first time observing the Great Knight.
He has observed low-level knights, intermediate knights and high-level knights, and found that there is no essential difference between them. They are nothing more than an increase in blood and physical fitness.
But the great knight in front of him, the Earl, seemed to be slightly different.
Although he also had no use of mental power, Eli observed through witchcraft that the count's body had definitely experienced the infiltration of elements. The traces of elements escaped into the flesh and tissue, which not only allowed him to explode with power that exceeded that of a senior knight. Strength, even if Eli guessed correctly, the Grand Knight should have the power to use elements.
It may be rough, but it works.
This is probably why Sarin Metatlin made the knight extraordinary.
"What a polite child!" The Earl nodded, thinking of his unlucky child.
But what he didn't know was that the polite boy he was talking about had almost taken out his pants.
The Earl and Bachelor Lemon chatted for a long time, and then they remembered the business. He smiled and asked Eli: "It's like this, I have a group of wild horses from the Mi High School in my hand, which have not been tamed. I want to get rid of them." Can you help me tame it?"
"Uh..." Eli hesitated.
"One horse has ten silver tals, so the total number should be around fifty." The earl said with a smile.
A horse is ten, and fifty is five hundred silver tals, which is five gold tals, equivalent to almost eight years of Eli's salary, which is enough to carry out several experiments.
"My lord, I am willing." Eli agreed easily.
He made money and had a relationship with a count, so he had no reason to refuse.
"Okay!" The earl patted the sofa and laughed, feeling very happy. The servants also brought tea and snacks at this time. Eli would occasionally reply and drink tea and eat cakes. Lemon and the earl had a good chat.
Soon, the sun slowly sets and dusk is approaching.
After the count and Eli agreed on a time, Eli left with Lemon.
When they walked around a corner, Rias and the others happened to pass by.
They had just finished hunting, and most of their bodies looked a little messy. Some of them still had some blood and mud hanging on them, making them look extremely dirty.
Suddenly Eli was a little glad that he was called away by the earl.
hunt?
Is that thing comfortable for drinking tea?
"Eli, what did you and my father talk about?" Rias walked over and asked curiously.
"Children should stop prying into adults' affairs!" This sentence made Rias completely crazy.
"Hmph, if you don't tell me, I won't tell you. I'll ask myself then." Rias snorted and left.
"Eli, I'm looking forward to meeting you next time." Alex, an earl, also passed by Eli with a smile, but the dirt on his face made him look a little less elegant.
"Yeah." Eli nodded.
Many other nobles also said hello to Eli, with a completely different attitude than when they first met him in the banquet hall, including Klein, the nobleman who looked down on Eli, also said hello to him.
"You seem to be quite popular!" After everyone left, Bachelor Lemon said with a smile.
"Maybe I'm more handsome." Eli said, touching his face.
Not far away, Kurt was already sitting on the carriage waiting for them. Bachelor Lemon and Eli got directly into the carriage and left Moore Manor.
Sitting on the carriage, Eli looked at the scenery outside the window and took stock of what happened and what he gained this time.
At the ball, he gained the goodwill of many noble children, and during the horse training process, he prevented the red-haired man from taming the wild horse, and successfully obtained investment. The most important thing was the count's order, which finally gave him the money to start the preparation of spiritual potions.
What a perfect day.
Eli smiled.
"Why do I feel like we forgot something?" Kurt, who was sitting next to Eli, suddenly said as the carriage was walking.
Eli looked at the senior and understood what he meant in just a moment.
"Ah! Why did you leave me behind!!"
At this time, in Moore Manor, Herman, who had just changed his clothes, faced the sunset and shed tears of grief.
…
Just as Eli and the others were walking back.
Imperial Knight Academy.
Principal's room.
"Didn't you get this donation?" Sitting on the luxurious sofa was a middle-aged man with half-grey hair and simple clothes. In front of him were an old man and a red-haired man.
"Tell me, what happened?" The middle-aged man held a pen in his hand and asked the two of them.
Then the two told what they had seen.
"What, you actually lost to a scholar in horse training. No, he is not even a scholar. Do you think you are suitable as the Imperial Knight Academy? And you, you are going to be an intermediate knight soon, and you can't even get a mixed-blood horse. It can't be tamed!" The principal was so angry that he yelled.
"Principal, you also know that it is generally impossible for such low-level hybrid monsters to use elemental power. I also..." The red-haired young man also felt a little aggrieved and said through gritted teeth.
"Yes, yes, don't deny your mistakes, but this does go against the rules." The principal also frowned, but he couldn't think of the reason.
And from the red-haired student's mouth, he also knew that he had tamed the horse immediately, but the horse suddenly lost control, which was undoubtedly a bit suspicious.
Could it be that someone influenced Mustang?
But how is that possible? Even the Great Knight only uses it inside or on the body.
The red-haired man was also thinking, thinking of Eli who could easily tame the wild horse, but then he shook his head, how could a library scholar be so able to influence the mixed-breed horse.
"Okay, stop making excuses. From today on, your equestrian classes will be added to three extra classes a week!" The principal finally made the decision to add extra classes to the already full Knight Academy.
As for where to add it, it is naturally during their rest time.
"Young people, you should practice more and have enough rest time." The principal decided to take the opportunity to rectify the school's school spirit.
The same thing happened in the monastery, but they added courses in the understanding of potions.
