Chapter 91: Disclosure
After Duke left, the deck fell into silence and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Allen was the first to break the silence and said to the senior sister beside him:
"Duke is different from me. After all, he is born into a noble family, a descendant of the dragon vein, so it is inevitable that he is arrogant."
"Brother Marvin asked Duke for a quota. Doesn't that seem... inappropriate?"
Marvin heard his question and turned around to sneer.
"Brother Allen, it seems that you have also been fooled by that bluffing white-haired boy."
"How can he be from a noble family? Even compared to you who comes from a small shop owner's family, he is even lower class!"
With disdain on his face, Marvin revealed Duke's true background in front of Alan and Tanya.
"Duke's father is a quack doctor who sells fake medicine from door to door. His mother, haha, is a street prostitute!"
"This is his self-proclaimed 'aristocratic origin' and 'ineffable wealth'."
"Brother Allen, after learning the truth, do you also think that Duke is hypocritical and ridiculous?"
Alan's face remained calm, but he was quite shocked in his heart!
Marvin couldn't, and had no need to, lie about this.
In order to successfully obtain a spot to enter the secret realm, Marvin must have investigated Duke's background in advance.
Like investigating his origins as Alan Panthers.
Make sure they don't have any powerful background so that it will be easier to threaten, bribe, and control them in various ways.
Since Marvin is so sure, Duke must have lied about his background!
Allen recalled the details of his encounter with Duke.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that this person is extremely bold and has an incredible mental quality!
This Duke, from the moment they first met on the ship, was the most pretentious among all the apprentices.
He always implies that he is of noble birth and extremely wealthy.
His white dragon bloodline does give him the qualifications to show off.
So much so that no one doubted that this guy was actually bragging.
After entering the Warlock Academy, Duke was still the same, always acting like a young master from an aristocratic family.
Not only Allen, but also Felin, Angel, his classmates in the academy, and even his tutor were really fooled by him.
I always thought he was from a noble family .
It was not until I heard Ma Wen's revelation that I realized I had been deceived.
Duke lied about his background to satisfy his vanity.
In Allen's opinion, it's not a big problem.
Which young person can completely overcome vanity?
The problem is that Duke is being too pretentious and he can’t hold it back!
If you brag in front of your friends and pretend to be a rich second-generation, after being exposed, at most you will be ridiculed and lose face.
However, after Duke entered the Warlock Academy, he was not honest and continued to falsify his background, deceive people, and gain benefits through his forged noble background.
This is of a serious nature!
The Warlock Academy is the private domain of the aristocratic families, and the most important thing is family background.
Other things are easy to deal with, but you can't be cunning about this matter.
Duke, you have committed a big taboo!
Alan had to worry that this kid would soon pay a heavy price for his pretense and vanity.
Do you want to say a few good words for Duke in front of Marvin?
This thought lingered in Alan's mind for a moment and then disappeared.
If Angle or Ferrin got into trouble, Allen would do his best to help.
But Duke?
Sorry, we are not that close yet.
Alan has never been a sanctimonious person.
His friendship and favors are not that cheap.
Duke chose the path of opportunism, and as a result, he received preferential treatment in the past that he should not have enjoyed.
Now that it’s time to settle the accounts, all I can say is… wish you all the best.
…
Return to college.
Before entering the secret realm, Angel came to find Allen and returned the storage bag to him.
"Do you know what's here?" Alan asked Angel, shaking the storage bag.
"have no idea ."
"You really don't know?"
"I lied to you!"
It's so rare that Angel can play a prank and wink at Alan playfully.
"Actually, I secretly opened it and took a look!"
Ever since the conflict with Andy, Alan has exchanged storage bags with Angel.
Alan asked Angel to take his storage bag and help him keep something.
Just in case you are forced to search me and get caught red-handed.
"Also, I put something in your storage bag as a token of my gratitude for your care on Magic Stone Island." Angel said.
"Oh? What is it?" Alan asked curiously.
"Don't look at it now..." Angel smiled mysteriously, "Open it when you get back to the dormitory, lest someone finds out. That would be bad."
"You still want to give me a surprise?"
"Um!"
"Then I have to treat you to a nice meal."
"OK!"
"You eat too little, that's why you are so thin." Alan touched his head and said with pity.
"My stomach is small and I can't fit it in."
Angel smiled sheepishly.
"But it doesn't matter. I like watching you eat. It makes me feel like I have an appetite and am satisfied."
…
Allen treated Angel to a nice lunch.
For each dish, Ingres only took two bites and was full.
He eats as little as a cat.
So this meal, as always...
It was mainly Allen himself who ate and drank lavishly.
Angel was watching from across the table.
He is really a good audience who likes to watch "eating broadcasts".
He watched with great interest and fed Alan from time to time...
It seems that watching him eat and drink heartily can make you enjoy the joy brought by delicious food more than tasting it yourself.
After lunch, Alan said goodbye to Angel.
Return to the martial arts dormitory and lock the door.
Open the storage bag and count the gains from the trip to Magic Stone Island.
First take out two large bags of attributeless magic stones.
The total amount is nearly 200 yuan.
Trophies from hunting down Necromancers Moss and Rhett.
Alan fumbled in his storage bag and pulled out a medicine box.
There is a blood harmonizing reagent in the paper box.
And an instruction manual handwritten by Ingres.
After injecting the reagent, if nothing goes wrong, you will automatically master the "Second Level Meditation Secret Technique".
This is Ingres's thank you gift to him...
Alan sighed.
This gift is too precious.
Angel is about to enter the secret realm of time and practice for four years, which is equivalent to one year in real time.
Alan sent him a letter of thanks through a secret barrier, but he didn't know whether he would receive it.
Finally, Alan took out the bone-carved statue of the God of Plague from his storage bag.
This was the key item he had entrusted to Ingres for safekeeping.
Ever since he learned of the value of the statue of the God of Plague, he realized that he had fallen into the dilemma of "being guilty of possessing a treasure".
So, prepare for the worst in advance.
For example, being forced to be searched by Pamela, Andy, or the Beast Cultists.
After giving the statue of the god of plague to Ingres, he dared to say to Moss and Andy with a clear conscience:
"The evil statue is really not in my hands!"
Jesus is here, Buddha is here, and he dares to say this!
Andy and Moss, both dead.
Now that Alan has temporarily overcome the crisis, he can enjoy the spoils with peace of mind.
