MTL - For Thousands of Years, My Weakest Brother Has Become a Demon King (1000 Years Later, Even My Weakest Follower Has Become A Demon King)-Chapter 257 do me a favor
"Your Excellency Dean, I have just received a notification. The first batch of magic general teachers from Ava Continent are expected to visit at the end of this month, which should temporarily alleviate the current shortage of teachers in the college. Of course, this is only theoretical..."
"Why is it only theoretical?"
The dean of Blackwater Law School, Green Gordon, annotated the document and asked without looking up.
"On the one hand, their equipment can't be delivered together. Now the Broken Sea is completely blocked by the Imperial Navy, it is already reluctant to send people smuggling ships. But the bigger trouble is... I doubt that the people in the academy have any regard for the high school. The acceptance level of the elves, after all, we have always been raised with a hostile high elves education. To be honest, I suggest starting to prepare for security-related matters now.”
"You mean to protect the personal safety of those high elf teachers?"
"No, I mean protecting the personal safety of those radical students. The teachers sent are said to be led by legendary magic-level casters, and there are mages of all disciplines. Their personal safety is completely out of our hands. "
The eagle feather pen in Green's hand stopped, he raised his head to look at his newly promoted secretary, and asked with interest:
"Why, do you include those who have opinions on the high elves?"
"I just think it's absurd. Let the high elves be responsible for our magical education... Don't you think it's dangerous, Mr. Green?"
The secretary replied in a resentful tone.
"As for this, I actually…"
Green nodded with a subtle expression, intending to agree. However, in the next instant, he straightened his face, and then began to correct the opponent's immaturity in political consciousness with a serious tone.
"No matter what... Since the high elves have an advantage over us in this magic general education, then we should study their model well. Besides, this is also an order assigned by the above, and it is what we should do to implement the order resolutely. obligation."
"That's what I want to say, Lord Dean. How could the above make such a decision? Isn't this a complete nonsense?"
"The above decision has its own deep meaning, we can't..."
"But that's the high elves. Let those aliens come into our classroom, God knows what else they will teach besides magic... Even if the high-level announces an alliance with Avazhou, they can't directly hand over the educational position to those pointed ears, right? I don't know what the people above think, anyway, I will definitely not give my daughter to those elves for education."
Seeing that he couldn't stop the other's open mouth, Green could only look behind the man nervously, trying his best to suppress the spasms of the muscles on his face.
did not notice a person standing silently behind him at the moment, the secretary seemed to be venting his long-standing dissatisfaction and said:
"If you want me to say, the current policy on magical enlightenment is not as good as when the Star Council was in charge of it in the past. At that time, whether it was screening or enlightenment, it was much more careful and efficient. Like now, it is required that all people over 12 years old. One-year-old children are tested, and even children with talent the size of mung bean require magic enlightenment—24 hours a day, seven days a week, and now the wizards who are in charge of enlightenment are too busy to work…”
In Green's eyes full of "You can say a few words less", the man continued selflessly:
"That's fine. It's just that everyone is tired. But the solution to the shortage of manpower is to seek help from Avazhou... I don't think about how many years Avazhou has been in military confrontation with the Empire. I heard that for so many years. The ruler who came to Ava Continent has always been the same person. The hatred that has been fermented for so many years, I really thought that a few meetings and a few contracts could be changed? The Rose Palace is too naive, the one from Ava Continent sent Will the high elves who come here really complete the general magic course with due diligence as they advertise?"
The young secretary said, moved his chair back and tried to stand up, but accidentally bumped into the man standing behind him.
"I'm sorry, I was a little fascinated by your conversation, I should have reminded me in advance."
The man apologized very politely.
"It's alright, I'm done with things on my side, please take a seat. Dean Green, I'm going to the Mokezu Lighthouse next. Do you have anything you need me to help with?"
The secretary smiled and gave his seat to the Stormtrooper-looking magic caster behind him, then turned around and asked the dean whose face suddenly turned ugly for some reason.
"There's nothing to take with you... But after you finish the work on the lighthouse side, put the rest of the work aside for the time being, and go home and have a good rest. But don't go too far, just stay with your daughter at home. , otherwise it will be troublesome to find you when something happens."
The man gathered the information in his hand, bowed from the heart and thanked:
"Thank you so much, Headmaster, my family has been complaining that I can't find time to accompany them... Hey, I haven't had a good rest since the previous wave of undead. It's all the fault of the masters above, you say right?"
He said, looked back at the new visitor, and asked as if he had been approved.
"Yeah, the people above like to mess around."
The man smiled and nodded in agreement.
In response, Green barely covered his face.
Do you have to say the second half of the sentence?
After the secretary happily hummed a tune and pushed the door open, Green immediately got up and said:
"Lord William, I can explain about this..."
"Those things will be discussed later, you open the 'door' first."
Before Green wanted to explain, the "higher" who came from a thousand-year-old myth and was also the true "higher" of the entire Blackwater Swamp raised a hand and interrupted him.
"Door?"
may be because the scope of the topic is too large, and Green didn't react all of a sudden, he asked suspiciously.
"Go to the door of the 'Library of the Dead'. I opened a direct portal for Blackwater Austrian University before. Isn't the key under your control?"
For the first time, a somewhat impatient expression appeared on William's face. It seems that compared to the previous secretary who was behind his back, he didn't realize this matter at the first time, which really made him feel unhappy.
"Ah, ah, yes, I'll 'open the door', please wait..."
Green immediately rolled up his sleeves when he heard the words, and there was a key-shaped luminous rune on the inside of his arm. He pressed his finger on the rune and chanted the opening incantation.
An arch made of thunder light spread out beside him. Seeing this, William didn't say much, and stepped directly through the arch. And Green watched nervously from the side, don't say what he should do for a while, and even didn't seem to know how to put his hands.
"What are you doing? You come here too."
A slightly hoarse voice suddenly came from the other side of the door, and Green hurriedly followed after hearing this. After he passed through the archway made of electric light, it immediately dimmed and disappeared in place, as if it had never existed.
Under the huge dome full of stars, the two walked one after the other in the ornately decorated library. They didn't say a word, one was temporarily in the mood for something important, and the other was afraid to speak.
Passing by the vast collection of documents, the two walked up the spiral staircase to the second floor of the library under the guidance of the "Archiver" whose eyes were stitched and his hands tied.
Until this time, Green summoned up the courage to ask:
"Excuse me, what did you come to the Austrian Law School for this time..."
"Some things need to be checked in the library. It will save a lot of time by walking through the direct portal that you keep."
William answered as he gently brushed the spine of the books on the bookshelf, which shone with enchanted brilliance.
Then he asked casually as if he had remembered something:
"By the way, about the new policy, do many people have the same attitude as the previous person?"
Green heard the words and immediately shook his head like a rattle.
"No, no, no, absolutely not, he is just a very few dissidents. Lord Judge, please rest assured..."
"Lying."
William briefly interrupted the other party's next speech.
"If you are really a very individual dissident, you will continue to express dissatisfaction without any scruples after seeing me? Do you think I am easy to fool?"
After the other party noticed that a stranger had listened to his speech all the way, not only did he not panic at all, but he seemed to see an audience and spoke more vigorously. This shows that what the other party said is already the consensus of many people to some extent.
"Don't dare... I mean, although there are indeed some dissatisfied remarks, they will definitely be able to understand your intentions in the future."
In this regard, William sneered and said:
"The future? As far as that person's attitude is concerned, I can't see that within two months, the entire system will be shut down."
In this regard, Green did not dare to answer.
William continued:
"By the way, don't make your own decisions, go back and dismiss your secretary. If the general atmosphere is like this, it will be the same for anyone who comes up. Although they say I am fooling around, don't do it. Really messing around."
"Yes... Lord Judge."
The dean who followed behind William answered cautiously.
Immediately, William continued:
"But don't worry too much. Whether it's your trust in the high elves or the current shortage of magic casters in the academy, it should be resolved within a month or two. What you are responsible for is to ensure that In the past two months, don't let those people make too much trouble, can you do it?"
"can do it."
Green nodded quickly and replied.
As for the specific solution, William did not say, and the other party did not dare to ask. The two circled the spiral staircase again and came to the door of the third floor of the library.
"Speaking of which, you don't seem to have been to the third floor before?"
pushed open the old and outdated wooden door, William asked casually.
The other side nodded.
"You have said that the third floor stores all legendary and divine-level magic books, and also seals many moon-level monsters and powerful spiritual bodies. It's not a place I can set foot on for the time being..."
William gave a "hmm" and then said:
"But today is an exception."
"why?"
Grimm, who should have been happy, asked nervously for some reason.
"It's like this, in the deepest part of the third floor, there is a book called "Unforgettable History". In that book, the devil general 'secret-keeper' under the taboo sage is sealed. Because what happened in the past Some things, after it senses my breath, will it be very willing to show up, and if it doesn't come out, the book can't be opened and read."
William said, and patted the other person on the shoulder as if encouraging a junior.
"So, I need you to do me a little favor..."
"Wait, Lord Judge, you don't mean..."
Green's face turned pale.
"Well, just go to the deepest part of the library and help open that book."
