Chapter 191 Invited Guests
On the day of the exam, Kira brought the three kids into the exam area, then turned to find the head of the academy.
Not far from the gathering point for the entrance examination in Hams City, in an isolated European-style villa, sat several people who held extremely high status in the Kingdom of Fiore.
Kira pushed open the door of the villa, and a noble and elegant atmosphere hit her in the face.
The floor is paved with bright tiles, and a gorgeous crystal chandelier hangs high in the center of the villa; the fragrant wood table, white porcelain cups, and leather chairs are the high-end life that countless people at the bottom of society yearn for; the expensive carpets, exquisite stone carvings, famous oil paintings, and verdant vegetation add more color to the interior. But the most amazing thing is the dazzling magic books placed on the rows of bookshelves, which fully demonstrate the low-key luxury and connotation.
Kira nodded secretly: It is worthy of being the reception office of Demisol College, the decoration is really different!
A tall, plump, fair-skinned, wrinkle-free woman with a cold face like abstinence and elegant manners like aristocracy came forward and said to Kira, "Mr. Kira Hoplite, welcome!"
The woman had long light golden hair combed back from her head, her eyes were charming and clear, and she was wearing a white slim long dress that half-exposed her chest, outlining her exquisite and graceful curves.
On her shoulders was a long cape that was white on the outside and blue on the inside and reached her knees, which was the standard equipment for a strong person. Under her neck hung an emerald-colored gem necklace, and upon closer inspection, one could see the luster of the gem, like an oasis in the desert, full of vitality.
Kira couldn't help but admire the sculptor's superb craftsmanship, because this didn't seem to be an ordinary gem, but some kind of magic prop. This reminded him of Marvel's Doctor Strange. Fortunately, there was no such thing as the Time Stone in this world, otherwise he would have wanted to borrow it from the other party to take a closer look.
She was wearing a pair of black leather gloves and a pair of white boots. Kira could tell at a glance that both were magic props with special functions, but his specific uses were not known for the time being.
Judging from her face and figure alone, this woman should be around 30 years old, which is the age of maturity and intelligence.
Kira politely returned the greeting: "Thank you for your invitation, Dean Conas!"
According to Marklov, this woman named Conas is the current dean of Demisool College. She also has another identity, one of the Ten Holy Wizards.
Conas looked at Kira and nodded repeatedly: "'Fairy Tail' has a successor, is Marklov-san okay?"
"President, I am in good health. Thank you for your concern."
After a brief greeting, Kira noticed that there were two other people in the villa, one old and one middle-aged, both men.
The old man had a long white beard and looked to be in his sixties or seventies. He wore a wizard hat and a reddish-brown cloak. He held a snake-head staff in his hand and his hands were wrapped in bandages. He was the new Speaker of the Council, Gulan Doma.
The middle-aged man had short dark purple hair, four red marks on his left forehead forming a "cross", a few bangs on the right, red eyes, and a small mustache between his nose and lips. He was dressed like an aristocratic gentleman, wearing a white and purple shirt with a blue bow tie at the collar, a black high-collared cloak, and holding a goblet in his hand. He looked like the legendary vampire.
What Kira found most awkward was that the goblet contained not red wine or other red drinks, but milk.
Hmm, this face looks familiar too, it’s Haiberion who is ranked second among the Ten Saints.
With the idea that personal image cannot be lost and the guild's personality cannot be abandoned, Kira greeted everyone one by one.
Grandoma half-put on airs, narrowed one eye and said: "When I heard that you were from 'Fairy Tail', I thought you were also a lawless boy. Now it seems that you are much more stable than Markrov."
The new president of the Council seemed to have little .
Haiberian stood up and said, "Don't say that, Speaker Gulan, Marklovsan is sometimes very reliable!"
That's the kind of person the old man is in your eyes...
After chatting for a while, Kira got to know the three people in front of him.
Among the three, the old man Gran is serious and rigid, decisive and tough. He cares for the new generation, but he doesn't have much affection for Fairy Tail; Haiberion is mature and steady, and he is humorous when talking; Dean Conas looks cold, but she is actually gentle. She values the academy and her students very much, and she is a bit dark in character.
After the conversation, Kira also learned the reason why Dean Conas invited the three of them. Gulan represents the Council, the largest official magic organization in Ishgar; Haiberion represents the Holy Ten, the high-end combat force of Ishgar; and finally Kira represents Fairy Tail, the oldest magic guild in the Kingdom of Fiore.
Simply put, Kira and the other two are representatives of several forces in the magical world, which makes Kira a little flattered.
Conas said, "I have invited you all here for several important reasons, which have been mentioned in the invitation and the letter. I hope that after this enrollment meeting, I can invite the three of you to give a speech to the students in the college, and then continue teaching for another month."
The three of them nodded silently when they heard this. Since they were here, they naturally agreed to the conditions in the letter.
Kira raised his hand and said weakly: "I have a question, why didn't the dean invite our president Markov, but invited me instead?"
Dean Conas was silent for two seconds and said, "In previous sessions, we did invite President Markov, but in the end... It may be a bit rude to say this, but he did cause a lot of trouble for the college. After a month of his teaching, many students began to become lawless and difficult to discipline."
Thinking of Markov's occasional rebelliousness and arrogance, Kira suddenly understood and complained wildly: Good fellow, old man, I didn't expect you to be such an old man...
"Although I am in the academy, I have also heard about Mr. Kira's deeds: he relied on magic props to open up trade routes, promoted economic development with neighboring countries, and single-handedly improved the level of magic technology in the Kingdom of Fiore. He was nominated as one of the Ten Holy Mages several years ago, and recently defeated Joseph and Gerald in succession. Whether in terms of strength or reputation, he is enough to be an invited guest."
In view of Disper's own request, the people of Fairy Tail revealed the news when reporting the situation to the Council: Joseph was defeated by Kira.
Although these words were mostly polite, Kira was still secretly happy, especially since the other two did not refute or question him, which made him very satisfied: "As expected, big shots are different. They can tell at a glance that I am gifted. This eye alone is worthy of praise."
"No, no... you are so awesome... Dean, you are also amazing..."
It is better to be humble. Kira responded with a burst of praise. There is nothing shameful in mutual business praise.
After that, the four of them conducted in-depth discussions on magic in the villa.
Gulan is an old man in the Council. He has rich magical theories and profound magical knowledge. He has been conducting various magical researches and continuously improving them all year round. He can almost be said to be an important representative in academia, but he himself has no combat power.
Haiberion uses indirect blood-sucking magic, can control the opponent's blood through the air, and has a lot of experience in the use of magic power and magic. Although he was killed instantly by the god Celena in the original plot, he was the only one who caused him harm, not to mention that his magic was praised by the magic king Ogast.
After the exchange, Kira could only sigh inwardly that there is no false reputation.
Finally, after being told by Marklov, Kira knew that Dean Conas was using aging magic, which could make things age rapidly. It was a very scary kind of magic, which reminded Kira of Bylergan in the Deathly Hallows next door.
As the dean of the Demisool School of Magic, her knowledge is not much weaker than Gulan's. On the contrary, with the history of the school as a foundation, her understanding of certain magic is more profound than that of Gulan, an old man who has studied it for most of his life.
For her, Kira would also admire the hidden talents of the Kingdom of Fiore.
Finally, they talked about Kira.
"Word magic? I didn't expect there is such a strange magic in this world..."
After learning about the magic used by Kira, the three of them were amazed and said that it refreshed their views on magic.
"Speaking of which, I'm currently researching a topic," Conas' words regained the attention of the three people. "This is one of the reasons why I invited you this time. I hope you can join me in the research of this topic."
Kira asked curiously, "What topic?"
Conas smiled sweetly: "About the second source of magic in the wizard's body!"
