Chapter 179: puppet

Epps even felt that the person in front of him was a puppet. He heard that there was a puppet country in the far east that could produce puppets that were comparable to real humans.
But only the elves of Komanso knew how to contact them, but as the Great Arcanist Brod, it would not be difficult to obtain a puppet from the elves.
With this idea in mind, Epps deliberately observes the look and behavior of the butler Miller, hoping to find out any doubts.
"Lord Epps, are there any other questions?" The Butler Miller asked again, as if as long as Epps didn't answer, he would leave.
Epps quickly said, "Are the other students of Lord Broad's free now?"
"I can't disclose without authorization, but if you don't mind, Lord Savile can wait here now. In four days, they will attend the regular meeting of the Mage Tower."
This time, the butler Miller said more, and Epps did not see any sign that the other party was not a real person, but he could not wait for four days, so he asked:
"Can I post missions in the Wizard Tower?"
"Sorry, you don't have the relevant authority." Miller butler refused with a smile as always.
The expression Epps expected began to become distorted. No matter how good his mentality was, he couldn't maintain it. He was extremely disappointed.
He originally wanted to find a few high-level mages to support the scene through the form of publishing tasks, but he did not expect to be rejected again!
Epps tried to restrain his emotions and said goodbye, "If this is the case, then I will leave first."
"Lord Saville, please come with me."
Without a little bit of retention, Miller's straightforward attitude made Epps very frustrated.
To leave, you need to borrow the space door of the Mage Tower. Epps is not worried about this. The Mage Tower of the Great Arcanist Brod hardly restricts anyone's visit and departure, as long as you pay.
Epps was very dissatisfied with this trip. He couldn't help but wonder if his grandfather was still alive, would he still be treated like this?
No one can answer his question, Epps can only go to the teleportation room with a heart full of disappointment.
When he arrived at the teleportation room, Butler Miller waited quietly at the door. At this time Epps finally reacted. Regardless of whether Butler Miller was a puppet or not, he was always a high-level mage.
Letting a high-level mage come to receive him is a kind of importance in itself. If only an ordinary person is used to receive him, he has no room for objection.
Thinking about this, Epps stopped leaving for a while, turned around and said, "Thank you for the hospitality of Miller butler."
After speaking, he stepped into the teleportation room, activated the teleportation circle and left the white tower.
Outside of the teleportation room, the butler Miller, who watched Epps leave, suddenly had a more procedural expression on his face, "Eps Savile? What a lucky guy!"
As soon as the voice fell, his expression returned to his usual expression, and his entire body disappeared under the cover of a white light.
...
Savile collar, town hall.
When the lord returned, there was a lot of movement, and all the heads in the territory received the news and rushed to the town hall to wait for the lord's instructions.
The new Arcanist Ebbock also teleported to him as soon as possible. The mayor Thain was already waiting in the meeting room. After seeing Ebbock, he asked:
"Cecili came back and told me that Niya hasn't even had time to rest recently, what's the matter with you?"
Ebbock, who was asked, hadn't reacted yet. He was taken aback for a while, and Thain complained for a while, "I said I want to take it slowly. What are you doing to push Niya out too early?"
It turns out that this is the matter, Ebbk almost understands, "Brother Thain, don't be angry. Recently, because of the arcane competition, Nia also wanted to do something! As for the matter of letting Nia take over the territory, this is Epps. It’s decided, I don’t know."
Abbock, the lord Epps and the mayor Thain, grew up together. Although their later developments were different, they had always been in a good relationship and knew each other quite well.
If he told Saienya that it was because he got some revelation when he advanced, Eps made a decision. Although Saien would eventually agree to this decision, Saien would definitely complain about him again.
Therefore, he simply pushed to Eps, and Abbock knew that Thain could not be angry with Eps.
Sure enough, when Ebbock mentioned Epps, Thain's anger was mostly gone, and the rest was directed at himself and Ebbock.
The two chatted for a few words, and then talked about the upcoming celebration. Ebbock didn't want to be so high-profile, but the things that Lord Epps had decided can only continue.
As for the arcane competition, Ebbock is even less interested, restricting the range of new wizards and spells that can be cast, turning the originally romantic and unrestrained arcade competition into a stereotyped performance by a crappy bard.
It's really disappointing!
But he also understands that the current influence of the territory alone is not enough to hold a true arcane competition. He only hopes that the lord’s side will go smoothly, otherwise the arcane competition may end in a farce. .
Not long after, the military chief of Savile came, and Abbock stopped chatting with Thain. After that, everyone who was eligible to participate in the meeting came.
Eberk took a look, and now the people on the side of the temple have not arrived, and of course Lord Epps is also.
...
The Tower of Time, Lord's Study.
Lord Epps, who was planning to go to the town hall for a meeting, was blocked by his daughter in the study, and Niya put a few pieces of parchment in front of Eps.
"Father, during your absence, I received this from the communication room!"
Epps took the parchment and turned it over. The expression on her face was surprisingly wonderful, but Niya who noticed this scene immediately asked: "Father, is this true?"
The information on these pieces of parchment came from Seventon. Archmage Oron gave a notice to Savile that he will take his apprentices to participate in Abbock’s advanced celebrations and later in the next month. Technical competition.
Along with this notification, there were also information about the participating apprentices. The quality of these apprentices can be said to far exceed the mage of the territory.
This is also the main reason why Niya has to train Chardonnay and Ganal severely.
Seeing his daughter’s implicitly worried gaze, Lord Epps showed a warm smile on his face,
It’s true, but don’t worry, I have visited Grand Master Olong in the Austrian Law Federation before. We support it!"
Although the truth is that Epps didn't mention any arcane competition with Oron Archmage~EbookFREE.me~, the notice came, indicating that the princess must be stable.
Maybe there will be other people participating in the competition besides the people brought by Master Olong!
The only pity is that he didn't see the Great Arcanist Lord Brod this time, otherwise, even if he only talked about it at the celebration, he could add some influence to the Savile leader.
"Alright Niya, I'm going to a meeting." Epps stood up and left the desk. Before the teleportation, he said again, "Don't forget to eat lunch, I will let Taring supervise you! "
After speaking, he disappeared.
"Father--" Niya only had time to shout for a while, but was interrupted by Taling's urging sound--
"Niya, the inheritor, the master ordered-don't forget to eat lunch!"
The second half of the sentence was clearly the voice of Lord Epps. When Niya heard it, she kicked her father's desk, picked up the message from Grand Mage Olong, and ran out, covering her ears.
