Plane Merchant Fancy Death

Chapter 68 The Mage
"Are you interested in magic?" Selena asked Ye Junwen in the room.

"Indeed." Ye Junwen also nodded, "The spells on your side are very different from ours, so I'm still very interested."

"I see." Selena nodded, "Although you are a little interested, it's better not to become a mage."

"Why?" Ye Junwen asked a little strangely.

Selena also knew that Ye Junwen didn't know what was going on inside, so she gave Ye Junwen a popular science.Ye Junwen roughly listened to it. The simple meaning is that in this other world, mages are not as respected as he thought.

Ye Junwen's knowledge of magicians comes from the novels he read before. Those magicians in them are very powerful and admired by thousands of people, but not here.In this world, those mages are relatively heretical existences in most people's cognition. They do have powerful power, but most people only think they are weird and afraid of them, and they don't worship them.

The magic of this world mainly comes from three colleges, Hollem College, Gulong College and Gray Robe College.Through Selina's narration, Ye Junwen roughly understood that the situation of these three colleges was somewhat similar to the situation of various schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods in ancient China, that is, three colleges represented three schools of thought.The mages inside will indeed be born, and then help various forces, but they can never become a true affiliation with the forces, because once it involves the academy, they must stand firm.

It is obvious that such a system makes the rulers of various forces not like these mages very much. Although they sometimes need the power of mages, they are not their own people after all, and they always feel that they are separated by something.In this case, almost all forces have reservations about mages.In their St. Welland Empire, the situation of mages is similar. Due to the official propaganda, the atmosphere in the entire empire is relatively alienated from these mages. The people generally think that these mages are relatively weird existences, and they love them more And worshiped are those warriors who fought bravely and gained glory on the battlefield.

Of course, after all, these mages have relatively powerful powers, so the empire still needs these powers.Under normal circumstances, the nobles in the empire would send their children without inheritance rights to the academy to learn magic and become magicians. In this way, they could gain great power without posing any threat to the inheritance rights. Because in the eyes of the people, it would always be strange for a magician to become a lord, and most people would not accept this situation.The true successor needs to accumulate merit on the battlefield in order to gain everyone's support.

So Selena has been preventing Ye Junwen from becoming a mage. After all, Ye Junwen is now a member of the Clovis family and has already obtained a title. If he becomes a mage at this time, it will have an impact on his orthodox identity.Originally, she didn't care whether Ye Junwen wanted to learn magic or not, but now she was pretending to be her, so it was naturally related to the Clovis family, so she had to remind her.

"The situation of the water god is..." Ye Junwen probably understood, but he also mentioned the matter of the water god. If the empire has this attitude towards magicians, then the current situation of the water god is rather strange. He is a legion Legion commander, if the empire is biased against mages, why would they let him hold such a position?

"It's not clear, but there is actually a precedent for mages to inherit titles. After all, if the orthodox heir dies, there will be no other heir but mages." Selina said, "The Kalesel family We don’t know the situation very well, maybe there is no suitable successor other than him.”

Ye Junwen nodded. If he said this, he probably knew the reason why Water God's credibility in the legion was not high. It might be because of the mage's identity. Most generals were probably dissatisfied with a mage leading them. After all, In their view, mages are just weird scholars, and only those who actually fight on the battlefield deserve to be called great people.And this assassination may be more or less related to this reason.

Now some strange things can also be figured out. For example, although the water god is a mage, he still has a sword on his waist, and he seems to be good at swordsmanship. It seems that it is also to reduce the others brought by his mage status hostility.If you are proud of your identity, you can just wear a mage's robe and hold a staff in a swaggering way.

"And once you decide to become a mage, you must go to the academy to study for at least a year. Can you accept this situation?" Selina asked.

"Is that so?" Ye Junwen really didn't know about it. If he had to study for a year, Ye Junwen didn't want to do it a little bit. Although he was really interested in magic, his primary goal now Or to build your own business empire, it is really unacceptable to study for a year.

"That water god, you also need to be on guard." Selena said again, "You don't know these things, but of course he knows, so he suddenly invited you to become a mage, and the intention is unknown."

Indeed, the water god invited himself to become a mage knowing that he was the owner of the earl of Clovis, and his intentions are indeed somewhat doubtful.But maybe it's not for harming yourself, maybe it's just a way to screen out your companions.Yes, the empire has reservations about the mage, and of course the mage also has reservations about the empire. Maybe the water god thinks that only people who are in a similar situation to him can understand his situation and become a true sympathizer with him, so he let him Ye Junwen went to learn magic.

However, it is impossible for Ye Junwen to become a mage now. He really cannot accept this one-year study period.For now, I'm still learning swordsmanship, fighting spirit, etc. I'll try to do magic if I get the chance in the future.

"I understand, I will reject him." After understanding the situation, Ye Junwen also said to Selena.

"That would be the best." Selena nodded, if Ye Junwen really insisted on learning magic, it would be very troublesome.

The two chatted for a while, mainly about Todd and the pistol. Ye Junwen also explained a little bit.It was getting late soon, probably because Ye Junwen hadn't responded, Selena couldn't help but said, "Should we do something serious now?"

"Business?" Ye Junwen was slightly taken aback, what is the business?
Selina's face suddenly darkened, but she quickly turned red again, and lowered her voice slightly and said, "Heir."

"Oh." Ye Junwen understood at once. The two said before that if they could survive the previous rebellion, Selena would consider marrying Ye Junwen. The next generation of heirs of the Wei family, this is a deal.

Regarding this, Ye Junwen has no opinion. After all, Selena's help is needed now. Of course, he is also very clear about the process. He has done everything he should have done when he was with his ex-girlfriend before. It's the same as the first brother.It just so happened that the atmosphere was pretty good right now. Ye Junwen looked at Selena, and then directly pressed her shoulder.

Selena probably hadn't experienced these things before. Seeing Ye Junwen's movements, she also quickly closed her eyes. Looking at her, she was very nervous, and her whole body was trembling slightly.It seems that although I have made a good decision mentally, I still can't help being a little scared when I really meet him.

"Dong dong dong." As a result, just when Ye Junwen was about to work, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.Ye Junwen frowned, this annoying situation happened to him, and he didn't know who was causing trouble for him.

When he opened the door, he found that it was a soldier. When he saw Ye Junwen opening the door, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, the General wants to see you."

"Water God?" Ye Junwen asked.

"Yes, it is Lord Water God." The soldier replied.

"I know, I'll be there right away." This water god was probably not looking for trouble with him, it seemed like he was really into something.Ye Junwen nodded, then closed the door and looked at Selena.Of course she also heard the conversation between the two, and showed a slightly annoyed expression.

"I knew I wouldn't have said so much nonsense just now." Ye Junwen said, "I don't know what's going on when you come to me so late."

"I heard that many nobles have a good manly style..." Selina said quietly.

"..." Ye Junwen looked at Selena, and said a little dullly, "No...would...well..."

"I don't know, but this time is indeed strange." Selena said, "I think you should be careful."

"Fuck..." Ye Junwen held his forehead, but this time was indeed a bit strange.His sexual orientation is nothing special. If this happens, even if the water god is still useful, Ye Junwen said he would kill him first.

"Anyway, let's go take a look first." Ye Junwen thought for a while and decided to go take a look first. After all, it's not easy to refuse now.

After leaving the room, Ye Junwen was also led by the soldiers to the Water God's side. What made Ye Junwen feel relieved was that the other party did not meet him in the room, but in a place that looked like an office in the City Lord's Mansion. .Although this place didn't look like a place to do that kind of thing, there was no one in the room, so Ye Junwen said he should be careful.

"You are lucky." The Water God said as he came up.
