Looking at the expression of the disciple beside her, Celie suddenly had a guess.

"You made this ice cream, didn't you?"

"Ah."

"madness."

Celie commented coldly, "The time of a human magician is short, yet you're wasting it on such things. I still have a future with you..."

"That's all."

"Go back. How you use your time is ultimately your own business."

Celia waved her hand and ordered her disciples to leave.

Seeing this, Gut nodded to the teacher and left on his own.

Listening to the disciples' footsteps fading away in the corridor, Celie sighed.

"One or two people, why don't you cherish your own talents?"

Sighing with emotion, Celie looked at the work prepared for her by her disciple on the plate.

"Besides, it's not very tasty."

"Forget it. It's a token of my disciple's appreciation after all. Don't waste it."

On the other side, in Gut's room.

Just as Gut hung his coat on the hanger, he heard the system prompt sound in his mind.

【Ding! 】

[Daily Task: Do one good deed a day has been completed]

Gut was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look in the direction of Celia.

"That's really not candid, teacher."

On the other side, in the city lord’s mansion.

"Is this so"

The city lord, Earl Gulanat, took a deep breath, with a mixture of emotions in his heart.

I should have been excited to learn that the city's greatest threat, Aura the Guillotine, had been severely damaged by the hero and that his entire puppet army had been lost.

At least he no longer had to worry about the demons' massive invasion before handing over the title and territory of [Earl] to his eldest son.

But the brave man Xin Meier's words "Take them home" made the count feel sad again.

Finally, all the emotions merged into a sigh, uttered from the bottom of the heart.

Because the mission was relatively clear, the people in the conference room quickly decided on the time and personnel for the action.

In order not to delay the hero's schedule too much, the action schedule was moved to tomorrow morning;

As for the personnel involved in the operation, the leaders of each city defense force mobilized as many people as possible to accompany and assist, without affecting the defense within the city.

After making all the relevant arrangements, the Earl looked at Miles, the acting president of the Dalemonus Chamber of Commerce, and asked.

"How's the situation, Lady Celia? Is the research and development of purification magic going smoothly?"

"It went very smoothly. The adult has finished it."

Miles said, pulling out a scroll from behind him and handing it to the city lord, explaining.

"Her disciple personally delivered it not long ago."

Unfolding the scroll in his hand and stroking the notes on it, the city lord, Earl Gulanat, could not hide his excitement.

If the actions of the brave Xinmeier resolved the threat from Aura during his term;

Then Celia's magic resolved the threat posed by Aura to every city lord from then on.

"I never thought that the development time for a magic spell could be compressed so quickly."

Thinking of the time that human magicians spend on magic research, which takes years or even decades, the Count couldn't help but sigh.

"The legendary great magician is truly terrifying."

Suddenly, the city lord, with a look of emotion on his face, seemed to realize something. He handed the scroll to an old man who was in charge of managing the magicians in the city and asked.

"Mr. Roy, how long do you think it will take for our magicians to learn this magic?"

The old magician Roy took the magic scroll from the city lord and read it quickly, but it still took him a long time to make a judgment.

"It will take at least two weeks to master everything."

Seeing the earl hesitate to speak, the old magician added another sentence.

"Don't even think about it, City Lord. It's impossible."

"Although I can see that Lady Celia has made excellent optimizations in both the casting steps and the mana consumption."

"But even so, even the elite among our magicians cannot master it in these few days."

"Besides, the amount of magic power required to purify the remains of so many warriors who have been turned into puppet armies in one go is far beyond our reach. Even if all our magicians were combined, it would be difficult to accomplish it."

"unless."

"Unless what?" The city lord asked hurriedly, but Count Gulanat already had a vague guess in his heart.

"Unless you can convince Lady Celie to do it herself."

The old magician Roy said slowly.

After hearing everyone's feedback, I understand the problem and will speed up the main storyline and strengthen the protagonist.

Milo's plot is bloated because I was too greedy. I hope to use this as a starting point to lead to more characters, and then cut it down later.

But the existing arrangements cannot be avoided, so please be patient, there are foreshadowings.

Chapter 57: The Disciples' Positions and the Message Brought by the Meteorite Bird

"Bang-bang-"

Outside the house, two light knocks on the door interrupted Gut who was sitting cross-legged on the floor meditating.

Standing up, he picked up his coat from the hanger and put it on himself. Then he opened the door and looked at the visitor.

"Uncle Myles, and Milo?"

Gut looked in surprise at the noble young man Milo standing next to his junior sister's housekeeper, and the two uncles following behind them.

"Why are you here? And who are those two people behind you?"

Gut asked, his eyes passing by Myles and Milo and locking onto the brave Xinmeier, thinking to himself.

What's going on with this slightly bald uncle? He has a gentle and kind look on his face, but I feel a lot of pressure from him.

Although it's not as good as the feeling I had when I first met Teacher Celia, it's definitely not something I can compete with now.

"Mr. Magician, we meet again."

Milo, standing in front, greeted his savior with a smile, "Let me introduce you."

"This is my uncle, Earl Gulanat, the Lord of the Earldom."

As Miro introduced him, the count nodded slightly to Gut as a courtesy.

"And this is the brave man, Sinmer, who defeated the Demon King."

"After we parted ways in Apertido, it was thanks to my chance encounter with the Brave Lord that I was able to survive the danger and successfully reach the Earldom."

Compared to the strictly polite Earl, the brave Sinmel greeted Gut in a much more casual way. He stretched out his hand and bumped fists with Gut, which marked the end of their first meeting.

After learning that this uncle with sparse hair was the middle-aged form of Xin Meier, Gut couldn't help but look at him twice more.

No wonder my intuition felt such strong pressure from him. It wouldn't be surprising if it was Xin Mei'er.

but

Gut glanced at Milo. This kid's luck is really amazing.

First it's yourself, then the brave one. Once you are in danger, there will be strong people to help you. This level of luck is not something to be exaggerated.

Could there really be something good in the secret realm he is going to explore?

Shaking his head and erasing the groundless speculation in his mind, Gut looked at the four people in front of him with a slightly solemn expression.

It would be fine if it was just Miles and Milo, but the arrival of the city lord and Xinmeier must mean that they have something important to say.

Without any useless greetings, Gut went straight to the point and took the initiative to ask the four people outside the door about the purpose of their visit.

Seeing that Gut was so decisive, the four people outside the door looked at each other, and finally the city lord took the lead and told Gut the plan they had discussed earlier in the meeting room of the city lord's mansion.

"Teacher's guess turned out to be correct. Has [Aura] really been made real?"

"They even abandoned the puppet army in order to escape. Tsk tsk."

"According to the hero's original plan, he was to bring back the remains of the warriors and find a church within the city to bury them there, relying on the city's defense barrier to isolate them from the demons' control, and relying on the church's holiness to gradually erase the enslavement effects brought about by the [Scales of Obedience]?"

"That's not bad."

"But now, thanks to the teacher's [Purification Magic], things have changed."

In fact, when the city lord said this, Gut had already roughly guessed the purpose of their group knocking on his door.

As expected, after the city lord explained that his magicians did not have enough time to learn the [Purification Magic] in time and that their magic reserves could not keep up with the consumption of purification, the city lord made a request to Gut, hoping that Gut, the disciple of Master Celiai, would also join the lobbying team and ask Teacher Celiai to take action together.

Looking at the sincere expressions of the people in front of him, Gut hesitated for a while and still chose to stand where he was.

He neither stood with the four nor refused their request, but spoke.

"Everyone, I understand how you feel. If I had the same power as your teacher, I would be happy to help."

"But whether to agree or not is up to Teacher Celiai."

"Just as the teacher never interferes in the private affairs of her disciples, as a disciple, I will not influence the teacher's decisions."

After expressing his attitude, Gut continued.

"I will take you all to meet Teacher Celiai, but if your request is rejected by the teacher, please understand."

"After all, there's an important magician exam in the Holy City of Heutraru waiting for the teacher to preside over on time."
