Type-Moon, the Path of a Magician

After spending so much time with Xia Yuan at El-Melloi Manor some time ago, the work that no one was dealing with at the Clock Tower naturally piled up, and Kenneth had no intention of helping him reduce the burden.

So when he just returned to the office, he saw the piles of documents and schedules on the desk. Weber felt dizzy, but because of Kenneth's arrangement, he could only take stomach medicine and devote himself to work.

This is the path he chose, and he has to finish it even if he has to grit his teeth.

Regarding this, Xia Yuan shook his head helplessly.

Although he wanted to help Weber share some of the work, when he picked up the document on the table and took a look at the densely written ancient English that looked like incomprehensible language, he silently put the document back.

Sorry to bother you.

He is very self-aware.

This is not my job, and I am not cut out for overtime. If I force myself to stay and help, I will only make things worse.

He left after bringing some fruit to Weber. He couldn't help much anyway, so he didn't stay for long.

The place he was going to was still the library. Just like he lived in the Great Library when he was in Kenneth Manor, he also lived in the underground library of the clock tower these days.

There was no need for him to go through the tedious task of arranging a dormitory.

Anyway, his body is now able to maintain normal functions even without sleep or food, so nothing will happen. Kenneth is also very clear about this.

So he gave Xia Yuan a special key to the underground library. That was the room he had applied for when he was studying. He knew that there were few people there and he would never be disturbed. There were also basic daily necessities in the room. Compared with the student dormitory, it was more suitable for Xia Yuan.

Kenneth has already sent someone to deliver the books that Xia Yuan will need for his next step of study. If he has any questions, he can just look for him or Lanis after class.

All basic subjects are the basic subjects for Western European magicians to embark on the path of magic. In the Clock Tower, if magic students want to officially join the appropriate subject classroom, they must complete their studies from all basic subjects and then pass a specific magic exam to be eligible.

These include many basic magical knowledge such as the science of the origin of magic and the science of magic operation.

Regarding Xia Yuan's condition, the basic knowledge of magic and the theories of magicians could not be applied to him at all, so Kenneth was very open-minded and directly joined forces with other monarchs to help him graduate from all basic subjects and specially invited him to designated subjects.

I looked down at the time - [London time - 9:00] It was the spirit-calling class.

The Lord of the Spiritual Exorcism Department is Rufreus Nazirae Euripides, who is Kenneth's teacher and father-in-law.

Weber had introduced this elderly Lord to himself not long ago.

The Lord of the Spiritual Summoning Department, an old man who controls countless spirits and even gives off an aura of the dead.

He holds an important position and presence in the Clock Tower that is no less than that of the monarch of Tranberio. Teacher Kenneth respects his father-in-law very much both in terms of status and knowledge.

The subject of summoning spirits plays an important role in the Clock Tower, the Spiral Pavilion, and even the entire mysterious world. It is a very important subject. Even the essence of summoning heroic spirits in the Holy Grail War is actually a type of summoning subject. So it goes without saying that this subject is very suitable for Xia Yuan. Kenneth arranged him into this subject out of considerable consideration.

As the Lord of the Mineral Department, Kenneth certainly wanted Xia Yuan to stay in the department, but he was well aware of the uniqueness and mysterious nature of Xia Yuan himself, and the Mineral Department alone could not accommodate this giant Buddha.

Compared with the Mineral Department, the Soul Calling Department is more suitable for him. What's more, he is also the son-in-law of the monarch of the Soul Calling Department. The relationship between him and his father-in-law is not just a simple family relationship. The relationship as both are root explorers also makes the two of them very close. They can definitely be regarded as family members.

So he chose to send Xia Yuan to his father-in-law. As a third magician, with the special properties of the humanoid self-propelled Holy Grail, he would not be surprised at any achievements he could make in the Spiritual Summoning Department.

Even the identity of the next monarch, as long as Xia Yuan wanted, they could decide it at any time, whether it was the Mineral Department or the Spirit Summoning Department.

Moreover, his father-in-law had also met Xia Yuan, and he had met him in person in front of Bao Shiweng. Some time ago, he often wrote to him to ask about Xia Yuan. Now there was no need to hide it any longer, so he could just send Xia Yuan over and let him stand on the clear side.

The appearance of the third magician will definitely rewrite the structure of the Clock Tower.

And they will also take advantage of this favorable situation to rise.

……

……

Not far from the spirit-revelation classroom.

"Boom boom boom——"

As he passed by, a big door in the corner suddenly made a strange noise.

Xia Yuan asked, "Who?"

There was no answer from the other side of the door, only a sharp "creak!" sound, and then the door slowly opened, revealing a dark room inside.

"Da da da--"

Soon, accompanied by a sound of muffled footsteps, a tall figure leaning on a cane walked out of the dark room.

The figure gradually revealed its full appearance. He looked to be an old man in his seventies, a magician with a very conjuring style.

She wore a piece of jewelry inlaid with several gemstones on her chest, and two rings on each of her fingers that looked like dead branches.

Although he wore a lot of rings and pendants inlaid with gemstones, he did not give people the impression of a nouveau riche or vulgar person. Instead, he had a strong sense of darkness, and it seemed that these ornaments were more like burial objects for the dead than decorations for the elderly.

With his frail appearance and lifeless aura, this old man gave Xia Yuan the feeling of a melancholy old goat.

"It's been a long time since we last met, respected disciple of Bao Shi Weng, the new third magician, Xia Yuan... Your Excellency."

The old man respectfully performed aristocratic etiquette towards Xia Yuan, and controlled his demeanor and attitude very well.

It's just that he seemed to think of himself as the disciple of the old man with the gem.

Did he make such a guess after hearing that they were in the clock tower? However, he did not explain, but just let the old man who suddenly appeared continue to talk, and then he briefly introduced himself to Xia Yuan.

"you are?"

"My name is Rufreus Nazaire Ulphius, one of the twelve lords of the Clock Tower at the headquarters of the Magic Association. I am in charge of the Netherworld Department (Ulphius)."

When facing Xia Yuan, the old man named Ulysses kept a very low profile and only talked to the third magician as a Lord of the Spiritual Summoning Department, instead of claiming to be Kenneth's teacher.

Family is family, relationships are relationships, and here in the Clock Tower we only talk about magic.

When Xia Yuan heard the old man's intermittent and somewhat awkward pronunciation, he didn't say anything, but just answered normally.

"So you are Euripides, the monarch of the Spiritual Adoration Department. I have heard of your name for a long time. I heard Teacher Kenneth mention you. He said that you are a mentor he admires very much."

"If we go by seniority, I should probably call you Master."

"I don't deserve it... I don't have the qualifications... and my son-in-law also doesn't have the qualifications... to call himself a teacher in front of the Third Magician. That would be... too offensive and disrespectful..."

Ulysses shook his head and did not accept Xia Yuan's address.

"So, is it Teacher Kenneth's arrangement that you came to see me, or is there something else?"

"...That's right." After a pause, Ulysses said, "It was arranged by my son-in-law."

"Excuse me for acting on my own initiative... You don't need to go to that lecture room for the subsequent study of the spirit summoning department. I (Ulyphis) have already arranged everything for you. Next... please move with me to a place where I have prepared a gift for you..."

After saying that, he stretched out his arm and pointed at the dark door behind him, making a gesture of invitation to Xia Yuan, "...Please move a little, everything you want is...prepared."

Gifts...

"Really? That's really thoughtful."

Seeing Ulysses in this posture, Xia Yuan knew that this was a confession between Kenneth and his father-in-law. This person also wanted to tie him up so as to get some of the cake.

I have just returned to the Clock Tower, and there are many people who know me and are spying on me. Ulysses is the first one to find me, but he will definitely not be the last.

But he had no reason to refuse this convenience. He didn't dislike this mutually beneficial balanced relationship. It was reasonable that there would be rewards only if there was effort.

"I am looking forward to the gift you prepare."

Xia Yuan nodded: "Then I'll trouble you to lead the way, Mr. Ulysses."

"...I don't deserve it. These are...what I should do."

Ulysses nodded.

Then Xia Yuan followed Ulysses into the door and entered the room behind.

At this time, those who were hiding nearby and thought they were following well also came out from the shadows.

Although he had noticed it a long time ago, there were too many people and he couldn't handle it, so Xia Yuan ignored them. As long as they didn't do anything out of the ordinary, he would turn a blind eye and let them follow him.

Now that Xia Yuan entered Ulysses' territory, they could no longer follow him and could only walk out of the shadows and go back to report the situation to their respective masters.

Walking into the exclusive activity room of the Spiritual Exorcism Department, the dark room was nothing special, it was just a lounge with no windows and no lights on.

As Ulysses manipulated the books on the bookshelf, the wall filled with countless gorgeous instruments slowly opened, and a tunnel appeared on the wall that led to an unknown place.

"...Please come in."

"it is good."

Xia Yuan walked into the tunnel without changing his expression and stepped inside.

Ulysses followed.

Walking into the dark tunnel and looking at the magic restrictions and traps scattered everywhere, Xia Yuan couldn't help but glance at him and said, "Lord Ulysses, the place this tunnel leads to is not simple."

"...Yes, Master Magician. This tunnel leads to the most confidential place of the Spiritual Science... and is also where important books are stored..."

"The secret of this place... is only known to a few people in the Spiritualist Department. Even my... daughter and son-in-law have never been here..." Ulysses replied.

"Ok?"

Xia Yuan asked, "Is it really okay to bring an outsider like me to such a confidential place?"

"That's nothing... Since we want to gain your trust, we naturally have to show the corresponding... sincerity. However... empty words can't move you..."

"The rules of the Clock Tower... have always been based on strength. The power of a family or the power of a magician can be used as a bargaining chip, and you... have enough chips for us to go all out."

"So there is no need to hide it. You can have everything. When... the time is right, everything we have... the assets will naturally belong to you. As long as you are willing, even if you lead us... I won't have any complaints." Ulysses answered in a cold but serious tone.

"To lead you, does that mean I can establish my own faction in the Clock Tower? That sounds good."

Xia Yuan glanced at the old man and said, "But there is no need. I am not interested in this, and I don't want to stay in the Clock Tower as a monarch forever."

"But since you treat me with sincerity, I will naturally give back. Whether it's my name or something else, feel free to use it. If you want to build a larger faction, go ahead and do it. I won't ask."

"Thank you for your generosity. Don't worry, we won't trouble you with anything. Just leave these trivial matters to us. You just need to stand behind us...which will be our greatest support."

After getting Xia Yuan's agreement, Ulysses smiled slightly, and then continued: "I believe you have already noticed that the other monarchs of the Clock Tower... have also noticed something about you. At this moment, they are still looking for clues about you from various clues."

"Indeed, there are all kinds of messy eyes spying in the dark every day. But there are too many flies and we can't drive them away, so we just leave them alone."

"Hehe... please don't worry. We have already sent our men... to teach those families who dared to spy on you a lesson. I believe they will receive the lesson soon. I promise you... that they will never dare to disturb you again in the future."

Xia Yuan nodded slightly and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"No, this is what I should do... It is our honor to serve Your Excellency..." Ulysses continued.

What stands behind Ulysses is by no means a faction or a simple family, but a huge force composed of multiple factions and forces connected to each other. Their stance shows their position.

Kenneth and Ulyphis had only revealed a portion of it to them, and they all chose to place their bets on this new magician.

People are greedy, and magicians are greedy too. No one is content with the status quo and wants to get more.

This is a chip as big as the Gem Old Man, and just like the Gem Old Man, it is a chip that no one can move. When the chip is large enough, only the Clock Tower can revolve around it.

Ulysses was convinced that as long as Xia Yuan stood on his side, the rise of a new magic faction capable of breaking the inherent balance of power in the Clock Tower would be a foregone conclusion.

Kenneth and Ulysses took the initiative to know his identity and value, so they immediately took the chopping board and made a decision to invest in this new magician at all costs. Although the other monarchs had some guesses, it was too late. When the mystery was revealed, they would find that the two largest pieces of the pie had been divided up.

So what Ulysses and Kenneth have to do now is to secretly win over some of their trusted forces to join their team and continue to divide this piece of cake. At the same time, they also have to act as the watchdog of this piece of cake, intimidating other forces so that they dare not act rashly.

Now, the Third Magician is the real master of the Spiritual summoning Department and the Mineral Department. They are just stewards who manage wealth and are also waiting to become stewards who can manage more wealth.

"Please come in...Mr. Xia Yuan...Everything is prepared for you inside." Ulysses performed an elegant noble salute and said.

"I believe you will like... the special gift I prepared..."

"Thank you for your trouble."

Xia Yuan nodded, pushed open the stone door in front of him and walked in.

First, a dazzling white light pierced through the darkness, accompanied by a pervasive bitter smell. There was also a rotten smell in the room that had not been cleaned for a long time. The scene in the room gradually emerged.

"here it is……"

Chapter 84: Soul Binding Demon Eye (Monthly Ticket Plus)

When they pushed open the heavy door, what they saw was not an empty room, but just a bare metal wall.

"Huh?" Xia Yuan was stunned. He did not sense any magical aura on the wall.

Just a purely physical creation?

No, that's not very realistic. It's unreasonable for a purely physical creation to appear in a place like the Clock Tower where so many magicians gather.

This iron wall is probably some kind of special magical tool.

"Please... wait a moment..."

Ulysses said this respectfully, then stroked the metal wall with his hands that were like dead branches, and then pressed his crutch into a certain spot on the wall, creating a deep hole.
