In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

They are respectively—

Lord of Creation, head of Balyereta, one of the three great noble families, a famous heroine in the democratic camp, and former teacher of Aozaki Touko, Inole Balyereta Atolohom.

Lord of the entire Basic Sciences, McDanell Tramberlio Elrod.

Lord of the Minerals, Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald.

The plant monarch, Lord, May Lydèle Archerlot.

Lord Marisbury Animusfiah, the Celestial Sovereign.

Lord Rufreus Nazele Euripis, the sovereign of the Spirit Conjuring Department.

The current head of the prestigious Finnish Edelfeld family.

Darnik Preston Yggdmillennia, a representative of the prestigious Yggdmillennia clan of the Clock Tower.

And the last one...

Lord Barthezmello Loreleia, the monarch of the Law and Politics Department.

No one expected that such a small study would be as lively as the Grand Rank Decision.

The three noble families of the Clock Tower gathered together, and the monarch faction sent seven members at the same time.

If Webber had actually listened to Rowe's suggestion to come and broaden his horizons, he would probably be so terrified by this scene that his legs would go weak and he wouldn't be able to move at all. How could he possibly be sitting in the main seat in front of so many important figures, looking down at these challengers like Rowe?

Besides the seven extremely renowned Clock Tower monarchs, there are two other magical families.

Both Edelfelt and the Thousand World Tree are unparalleled prestigious families. The former, like the Crowley family, originated in the Renaissance period. However, unlike the Crowley family, which accidentally picked up the legacy of Aleister, this family rose to power through plunder. In addition, their magical foundation was too shallow, and they were full of worldly desires, so they were often despised by the magicians of the Clock Tower.

And the other one...

When he saw that the Yggdrasil Clan had also come to join in the fun, Luo Wei was quite surprised. However, after the qualification assessment, the Yggdrasil Clan could indeed meet his needs, so he did not refuse and brought them along as well.

In short, everyone who came was a familiar face.

The scene in the room at this moment can truly be described as a gathering of wise men and immortals, lined up like hemp.

After all, opportunities to bring together the three great noble families are rare... Even negotiations between two factions might not be as lively as this.

"Heh, wasn't this a bet proposed by you aristocrats? How come you and I, the initiators, are involved? Is it to prevent us from obtaining the Gem Eye? This really is full of aristocratic arrogance and shameless behavior..."

Upon seeing five families arrive from the aristocratic side, Monarch Balyeleta let out a sarcastic remark without any politeness.

"Are you all such sore losers?"

"Hehe, Baruyeleta... After all these years, your tongue is as sharp as ever... However... the democracy you value... doesn't seem to have achieved anything significant... nor has it produced any noteworthy leaders... How about it? My grand-disciple surprises you, doesn't he?"

The one who responded to her was Euryphus, who was also over seventy years old and looked very old.

Of all the people present, he was the only one whose age was not much different from that of the old woman, so only he could be so blunt in his sarcasm.

"Alright, more than that, your simultaneous appearance has made me understand something."

Compared to Baruyeleta's sarcasm, another democratic monarch, Transpelio, saw more clearly. He said, "This child definitely didn't consult with you. Otherwise, you wouldn't be so eager to get involved, and you certainly wouldn't allow him to do such a thing. In other words... this bet was an addendum, and no one knew about it. It was an accidental bet."

"Am I right? Mr. Lowe?"

While mentally deducing the correct answer, Monarch Transberio then turned his gaze to Rovi in ​​the main seat, and his attitude was extremely proper, clearly placing Rovi on an equal footing with himself.

"Of course, after all, this is a bet, and the most important premise for a bet to begin is fairness, isn't it?"

"Moreover, I can guarantee that none of the aristocratic monarchs will know about this beforehand, so you two can participate with peace of mind."

In response to the other party's words, Luo Wei nodded slightly and then frankly gave the answer the other party wanted.

"Then thank you very much."

After confirming his thoughts, Monarch Tramberlio nodded slightly.

"Very well, is this the spirit of contract between nobles? Hmm, now that I see Mr. Luo Wei is so frank, I'm relieved about what you said earlier regarding those two pairs of 'gem' magic eyes."

"I believe that even if you lose the bet, you will ultimately keep your promise and frankly hand over the Demon Eye."

At this moment, it was a beautiful woman with blonde hair and blue eyes, whose figure was as elegant and noble as a jewel that spoke.

She is probably in her early twenties. Although her beauty cannot compare to the bewitching beauty of Rita Rojaan, she is still considered a rare beauty.

His true identity is the current head of the prestigious Finnish family, Edelfeldt.

only……

"You're already fantasizing about dividing the spoils before the bet has even started? No wonder your family started out as a plunderer; your arrogance and barbarity are practically overflowing... Today, everyone gathered here is a magician from the Clock Tower. I don't know what you, an outsider, are doing here? Do you really think you can win the Magic Eye in front of so many people?"

She had barely finished speaking when she was met with an undisguised sarcasm.

The other person was a stylishly dressed young woman.

Luo Wei looked at her and saw that she had a stunningly beautiful face that was in no way inferior to his. Her dazzling pink hair cascaded down in waves, like a burning flame, flamboyant and full of vitality. Her eyes were clear and blue, like a lake under a clear sky, seemingly hiding endless cleverness and cunning.

However, her presence here indicates that she is not just an ordinary girl.

Her name is May Lydel Archerlot, and she has her own unique title, "Lord of the Plant Family (Yumina)". She is also a maverick in the aristocracy. She does not like to study magic. Instead, she calls herself "a beautiful girl from the UK" and "a legendary witch with many suitors, the first in history to have more than 100 million fans, and the world's number one super idol in the association". She usually holds concerts all over the world as an idol singer.

He was the number two figure who was a headache for the aristocracy.

Originally, it was number one, but Luo Wei managed to take its place with his incredible skills, so it had to be relegated to number two.

After all, she clearly inherited the blood of a witch and possessed exceptional talent. With patience and dedication, she could have reached the "Grand Rank" in ten years. However, her willful actions prevented her from making much progress in magic, completely wasting her talents.

However, due to the special advantages of her plant family, which monopolized too many resources, and the outstanding achievements of her family in multinational corporations and media, even though she did not like to manage affairs and did not accomplish much, the plant family was still the richest department, which annoyed many monarchs.

Moreover, the person Aozaki Aoko, whom he met in Northern Europe who insisted on becoming his older sister, was the one he was introducing to right in front of him. Therefore, even for Luo Wei, it was difficult to guarantee whether this monarch of the plant family knew anything about Northern Europe.

"After all, everyone has a chance, right?"

Faced with Lydia's sarcasm, the head of the Edelfelt family also retaliated without hesitation.

"Even if we lose, it's only a matter of losing most of our assets. There's still a chance to recover slowly in the future. And compared to someone like you, who clearly possesses unparalleled resources and unimaginable talent but doesn't know how to cherish them, wielding the Magic Eye, I think the 'Gem' should fall into the hands of the right person to be truly effective."

"Since you like being an idol so much, why don't you leave the world of demonic cultivation and live a peaceful life? You haven't been focusing on demonic cultivation, yet you're standing in the position of monarch because of your father's protection, and you even start to criticize others on the grounds of bloodline. It's really ironic. The so-called monarch doesn't let someone with more responsibility and strength take the position, but instead chose a little girl like you."

"...May I take your words as the barking of an incompetent person?"

"Of course you can think that way, after all, you're just a defective product who betrayed the demonic path."

"It's incredibly ironic that even a defective product can be in a better position than you."

It's true what they say, "If we don't see eye to eye, even half a sentence is too much."

Because of prejudice against the Edelfeldt family and the proud personalities of the two representatives, the most likely clashes between democracy and aristocracy did not escalate. Instead, the two men, both accomplished in the secular world and pursuing different women, engaged in a war of words.

However, Luo Wei hadn't summoned them to watch a fight, and the two women, knowing they were from prestigious families, promptly accepted the excuse Luo Wei offered and didn't let others continue to laugh at them.

After seeing that everyone had quieted down, Luo Wei nodded and got straight to today's topic.

"As I predicted before, this will be an exciting bet. I've already written the details and will bring them up soon. Let's confirm the stakes first."

After speaking, Luo Wei didn't say anything more. Instead, he took out two pre-prepared containers from the sealed drawer and placed them on the table.

Blue and green, two jewel-like beams of light emanated from the container in an instant. The dazzling luster and immense magical power caused everyone present to involuntarily swallow hard.

"Gem" level magic eye! !

—This is absolutely true.

Having just witnessed this magic firsthand, they were naturally very familiar with it, so they could immediately tell that the two containers in Rowe's hands were special storage containers for gem-grade magic eyes.

In a mere instant, because they had seen three different "gem-level" magic eyes at the same time tonight, the magicians present had already unleashed their magic power uncontrollably along with their emotions.

Some of them even couldn't help but think, "Could we secretly kill him and then steal the Gem-level Mystic Eye?"

However, this idea was quickly rejected by Lovi himself. In front of all the monarchs, he activated the spell on the container, a self-destruct spell with the power of a small hand grenade.

This scene terrified everyone, and it also calmed them down.

What they feared was certainly not the explosive power of a mere grenade. As top magicians, each of them possessed their own terrifying, trump card techniques, and the explosion of mere firearms would be of no use to them.

But... the Demon Eye is afraid!

Even a gem-grade magic eye can only unleash its miraculous power when used. If no one uses it, its fragility is only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary eyeball.

If this really explodes, the result is obvious—both pairs of gem-grade magic eyes will be destroyed simultaneously.

"..."

For a moment, all the magicians present fell silent.

They understood that this was Luo Wei's way of keeping them in check; if anyone dared to act recklessly, he would detonate the Demon Eye. Even if they won then, they wouldn't get their hands on the Demon Eye.

The one who committed the outrageous act also had to bear the responsibility of destroying the Demon Eye and suffer punishment from everyone else. This was indeed a clever move.

"Please rest assured, this is just a small guarantee for the smooth conduct of the bet. I hope everyone can abide by it and not think of any other methods. I will dispel the spell after everything is over."

Everyone fell silent.

They knew they absolutely could not pressure Lowe any further.

The consequences of destroying the "Gem"-level Mystic Eye were too great for any of them to bear.

However, this did reassure all the magicians involved in the betting. After all, they no longer had to worry about anyone using underhanded tactics; everyone could compete fairly, and the Magic Eye would surely remain under their control.

"That concludes the opening remarks. Now, let's take a look at the contents of the bet."

Seeing that everyone in the room had already made up their minds, Luo Wei didn't delay any longer.

Using magic tricks, a stack of pre-prepared magic contest essays on the table is distributed to each magician.

These contracts are all signed by Lo Wei, and they take effect as long as the magicians write them down. Even if the contracts are torn up, they will have no effect.

The best proof is that Loewe directly used his own blood and the Origin Imprint as collateral, and the object of his oath was actually the "Root".

This discovery caused all the magicians to frown, but they also knew that there was no turning back now. They skillfully picked up their contracts and read every word and phrase on them, analyzing them carefully.

Then no one spoke...

"..."

Upon seeing the contents of the contract, everyone frowned, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Time passed second by second.

Loewy leaned back in his chair, fiddling with the magic eye in his hand, while awaiting the outcome...

And in the end, things did turn out exactly as he predicted.

Kenneth, the teacher, was the first to lose his temper. He stood up and smashed the porcelain cup in front of him.
