"Ah, it's a good thing they thought we were ordinary people. The older one should be Lord El-Melloi II of the Modern Magic Department."
"I have a feeling that something interesting will happen today."
3:00P.M.
"What? In the end, apart from the big gift bag in the morning, there was nothing else for the whole day."
Perhaps because their luck had run out in the morning, Allen and Romani did not find any other magicians after walking around the British Museum, which disappointed them greatly.
"I went around in circles but still didn't see it again." Alan was a little frustrated to find himself back at the Egyptian Museum. "Sure enough, this is a low probability event."
"Well, let's just treat what happened this morning as an Easter egg." Romani looked relieved and even wanted to pay tribute to Louis XVI.
"The Rosetta Stone, the most precious trophy that Emperor Napoleon obtained from Egypt." Looking at the heirloom in front of him, Alan was unable to muster any respect.
"That..." A slightly immature voice called out to Alan.
"The Rosetta Stone is very precious. Please move away from the display case. You are too close now."
Alan looked up and saw a girl with long orange hair calling them. Her left eye was as blue as the Mediterranean Sea and had an equal amount of melancholy, but her right eye was covered with an eye patch. Her neat women's suit, black stockings and black boots were a real eye-catcher.
"Sorry, this is our first time at the British Museum." Alan immediately stood up from the display case he was leaning against. "You look young, are you here to be a volunteer?"
"Volunteer...ah, yes. I come here every holiday because I live nearby." The girl was confused for a moment as she didn't understand the meaning of the word, but she reacted quickly.
"Then I wish you good luck, girl." Alan waved goodbye to the girl he had only met once.
The girl breathed a sigh of relief when she saw them leaving the British Museum.
"Ah, we almost let those ordinary people in."
On the other side, Allen and Romani were on their way back.
"You must have won the prize, Romani." Alan, with a smug look on his face, walked away without caring about his relatives.
"In many ways, you are really lucky, Alan." Romani recalled the scene of the conversation just now. "And you have good talent. It seems that you have met a genius."
Yes, that is a true genius.
There is absolutely no mistake. The girl with the eye patch just now is one of the seven members of Team A in the future, a genius of the Spiritual Department of the Clock Tower----
Ophelia Farmsolone.
Chapter 10 Miss Mary, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much.
After the New Year holiday, Alan Horomani returned to Chaldea, which is located at Dome-A, the highest point in Antarctica at 4083 meters, and is also one of the best astronomical observation sites on Earth. It is no wonder that Marisbury, the monarch of astronomy, chose to establish Chaldea here.
After entering 2009, the new recruits recruited by Chaldea last year have gradually become familiar with their work and their proficiency is also increasing. Seeing all this, Allen couldn't help but sigh that if it weren't for that incident, he would not have the opportunity to come here.
"Daily use, calculation and maintenance of the near-future observation lens Sheba and the event-recording computer demon Laplace, daily food supply expenses for everyone in Chaldea, Mr. Marisberry and Professor Leif's experimental expenses, and then... it's over, Alan."
"So, Ernest. We in the finance department are really idle, otherwise why would two people be enough?" He took a sip from the goblet in his hand. "97 Romane Conti, how about a glass?"
Ernest took a can of beer from his wine cabinet. "Sorry, as a German, I am a loyal fan of Original Oettinger, but the Bordeaux from Haut-Brion is very much to my taste."
"I do have a 82 Bordeaux, but it doesn't make sense for me to open another bottle after I've opened one."
"Come to think of it, Alan, you've only been here for half a year. How did you change from an ordinary college student to the upper-class person you are now?" Ernest has always been puzzled by this.
"It's fate. After 2009, I have too much free time. Apart from moving my fingers a few times a day, I have to attend management lectures three times a week. How can I not make good use of so much free time?"
In the finance office, the British who were slacking off and the Germans who were also slacking off were drinking, and it seemed very peaceful - as long as they didn't talk about football.
"How good are you Bayern? When will you be able to take off?" This is Alan who is drunk.
The Bayern fans were not to be outdone. "Your Ronaldo is gone, he's going to Real Madrid, Manchester United will not have the Champions League in the future..."
"Why don't I see any Bundesliga teams in the Champions League now?"
“5:3、5:3、5:3......”
"1999, 1999, 1999..."
"Champions League Champions League Champions League..."
"Solskjaer Solskjaer Solskjaer..."
At this time, Romani from the opposite side came over to visit and asked Allen to go to the cafeteria together, but he heard an arguing coming from inside at the door.
"Here again? These two really never get tired of football." Romani pushed the door open and his face suddenly changed.
"Alan! You're drinking again! You had potential symptoms of high blood pressure in your last physical examination!" Romani snatched the wine glass and looked at Alan, with the words "I'm angry" written on his face.
"No, no, no, high blood pressure has many causes, and that was an abnormal phenomenon caused by accompanying you in practicing Taoism. It was back to normal a few days ago." Are you kidding? How could a Jindan-stage cultivator be so fragile?
Then in the near future, the invincible Allen fell.
"Anyway, pay attention to me!"
"Please don't take my wine, Romani."
The German watched the couple bickering and suddenly felt redundant. "You two have a really good relationship."
“No.”×2
The German felt that he had been fooled. Ernest, who had asked for trouble, stood up, opened the door and walked out. "I won't be a light bulb anymore. You guys continue."
"Tsk, this guy." Allen curled his lips as he watched Ernest leave.
"So, Romani, are you here just to take me to the cafeteria?"
"Actually, there is another reason. It's about Mr. Marisbury. He just said that he wants you to go to him this afternoon, but I don't know what you're going to do specifically."
"I understand, let's go."
"Hey, look at this kid Allen. He always comes with Romani. I don't believe you if you say there's nothing going on between them."
"Ahhh, I'm so jealous. How come this kid Allen managed to kidnap Romani in just half a year? Romani may be a little average, but he's good in other aspects."
"Don't mention it. I heard they went traveling together during the two New Year holidays. I saw that they became a couple while traveling."
"Come on, come on, it's time to make your bets. The odds on Allen confessing first are 1:1.6, and the odds on Romani confessing first are 1:1.8."
Listening to the conversation of his colleagues on the road, Alan felt helpless. Since the New Year holiday, everyone could see that he was pursuing Romani, and judging from Romani's reaction during the last physical examination, she was not without interest in him. He still remembered her panicked expression at that time.
The problem is that the two of them are now getting along more like good friends rather than lovers, and Allen is racking his brains on how to break the impasse.
So, I did everything a couple should do except the last step, but I found out that my first kiss was still there! ? ?
"Did I see something just now?" Looking at a famous British dish in the cafeteria window, Romani's face darkened and he recalled some bad memories.
"Don't think too much. After I finish the first period, I will take you to taste the delicious food from the East." Alan gently stroked Romani's hair. Although he has been practicing Taoism for many years, his hair quality is still very good, which is really enviable.
"Ahhh, my eyes, my eyes." Several more wailing sounds were heard.
2:00 PM Marisbury's Office
"Mr. Marisbury, what do you want to talk to me about?" Allen looked at Marisbury who had just finished the experiment, his tired eyes still couldn't hide his excitement. "Is the Guardian Heroic Spirit Summoning System o Destiny about to be completed?"
"Oh, yes. It is expected to be completed in the second half of this year and put into use next year. This way, I can restart my experiments."
"Without further ado, Mr. Allen, please come back to London with me now. I will tell you the details on the plane."
"Is it a bit too hasty, or is there something happening in London again?" Alan was puzzled by Marisbury's decisive decision.
"I am sorry for being so abrupt. To be honest, I want you, Mr. Allen, to be my daughter's teacher. This is her personal information."
"I'll take a look at it on the plane. If you're really in a hurry, Mr. Marisberry, I'll go back and prepare and then leave."
London, Animusphia's house, our director said goodbye to Lanis after a day of magic training and returned to her room. Just as she was about to start preparing to do something as a girl, there was an expected knock on the door by the butler.
"Miss, the master of the house has returned from Chaldea, and he wants you to go to his place."
"Mr. Marisbury, how many people know about your own physical condition?" Alan was eager to know the level of confidentiality of this matter.
"You know, Mr. Allen is the only one at the moment. When we go back, Rafe and Romani will probably be included." As the price for making a wish to the Holy Grail, Maris Billy was mentally prepared.
"So you are going to entrust your daughter to me?" After getting confirmation, Alan began to think about the chain reaction this matter would cause in the future.
"She is my daughter, destined to become the future Lord Animusphia. There are many rumors in the Clock Tower that she will be my apprentice, but little do they know that this is just a deception."
"Father, are you looking for me?" Olga Marie knocked on the door and then pushed it open.
"Mary, you came at the right time. The person next to me is Mr. Alexander Allen. He will be your teacher from now on."
Allen? Olga Marie couldn't help but think of Mr. Allen, whom she had met at the end of last year.
“It’s probably just the same name.” The girl thought.
Then she took back her previous thoughts.
"Hey, Miss Mary, long time no see."
Chapter 11 The Tragedy Caused by Olga Marie
In April in Antarctica, it is a luxury to be able to see the sun. Before long, this place will fall into darkness.
"Winter has arrived in Antarctica. Although the ice and snow have not melted and everything has revived, it is still the season for animals to reproduce. Groups of emperor penguins crawled ashore from the sea. Male and female penguins snuggled together and made hearty sounds..."
Seeing a sea of dark figures filling the Antarctic coast from the helicopter, Alan recalled the classic opening line in "Animal World" and Zhao Zhongxiang's magnetic voice.
"Alas, it's a pity that there is still a difference between the buyer's show and the seller's show. The current mobile phones are not as good as those later. The animal world without Just Blue is soulless." Allen was very dissatisfied with his impromptu performance. "And there are no slow-motion shots of leopards running, penguins falling, and two gorillas cutting each other..."
"Puchi." The adolescent girl's low voice echoed in the cabin.
"Mary, what are you laughing at? Was my performance just now terrible?" Alan looked at the owner of the laughter. The most important thing for him and Maris Billy on this trip to London was to invite this person from the clock tower to the freezing cold Antarctic continent. The two of them were ready to knock him out and take him away, but they didn't expect Olga Mary to follow them without even thinking about it.
"This is where my father works, Chaldeas..." Olga Marie looked at the huge building and was shocked and speechless for a moment.
"In order to ensure that human history can continue long and tenaciously, researchers from various fields, regardless of magic or science, have gathered at this research institute and observatory. The purpose is to observe this world that cannot be fully understood by magic alone, and cannot be fully measured by science alone. This is the organization that guarantees the continuation of human nature, Fenis Chaldea."
No matter how many times you have seen it, Chaldea's design is extremely perfect. The semi-elliptical outer wall is connected to the mountain, and the space in the middle is reserved for observing the movement of celestial bodies and astrology. After all, this is the closest observation point on Earth to space.
"The Atlas Institute, one of the three major departments of the Magic Association, is located in the Atlas Mountains in Africa. It is the originator of magic and gathers a group of alchemists who analyze the principles of the world." Marisbilly looked at his masterpiece, his pride beyond words.
"But Mary, if Atlas represents the origin, then we, Chaldea, represent the future."
"Chaldea will become one of the four major departments of the Magic Association in the future. It will not be controlled by the Magic Association and will be independent of this Antarctic continent, the largest desert in the world."
Marisbury has high hopes for the future of Chaldea, but unfortunately he does not have the time to see that day. Fortunately, his daughter can take over his mantle and continue along this path.
"Mr. Allen, I'll leave my daughter in your care. I have some things to do myself. Sorry, Mary." Maris Billy hurried to his magic workshop, where another rare treasure was about to be born.
Seeing her father leaving, Olga Marie pouted her lips in protest, but was pulled away by Alan the next second. "Come on, Miss Marie, let me, a newcomer who has been in Chaldea for half a year, take care of you, a super newcomer. Chaldea is not as simple as you look."
"Hey, did you see that? Allen was just showing a little girl around Chaldea."
"This little girl doesn't look that old. Could she be Alan's sister? I remember him saying he didn't have any brothers or sisters."
"Think about it, isn't it more than enough for Alan to bring someone in with his ability? But if this new girl doesn't have some skills, Alan won't be interested in her."
"I just want to say about this scene - there is not much time left for Romani, wake up Romani, your boyfriend is going to be gone!"
The news spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. When it reached Romani, who was playing Tomb Raider, the news became "Alan brought his mistress in." Romani was so angry that he permanently killed his PSP.
"Alan--" Romani was searching for him in Chaldea with a dark aura visible to the naked eye. When others saw this, they didn't even dare to breathe and could only silently wish Alan good luck in their hearts.
"Okay, I can confirm that this time I am interested, but my lover ran off with someone else. Tsk tsk, the drama of the year is about to begin."
At this moment, Allen was entering Olga Marie's file in his office.
"The file entry is complete, Mary, welcome to Chaldea." Looking at the 'Completed' pop-up on his computer, Alan took the coffee beside him and tasted it.
"Tsk, I forgot to add sugar." Alan looked at me with a look of failure. "Would you like a cup too, Mary? This is Blue Mountain."
Seeing Allen's bewitching look, Olga Marie rejected the suggestion without hesitation. "As a British, I prefer black tea. As for coffee, I..."
"I have both Ceylon black tea and Darjeeling black tea here."
"Give me Ceylon." Olga Marie was killed.
"Alexander Allen!" Our Romani kicked the door open and walked angrily to the confused Allen. He placed his hands directly on Allen's desk.
"I know everything. It's not too late for you to explain now."
"Romani, what do you know now?" Alan was puzzled by Romani's abnormal behavior today.
"This woman is the one you brought in from outside, right?" She pointed casually, and it was Olga Marie who was ready to watch a good show.
Our director, no, our future director, had no idea why he had been in the game for no apparent reason. "Alan, what's going on?" Olga Marie asked Alan in an attempt to get an explanation.
Then Romani exploded.
"Alexander Allen! I didn't expect you to be such a person. I, Romani Achiman, have misjudged you. From now on, we are no longer friends!" Romani, who was very disappointed with Allen, said this and prepared to leave.
