In the next few days, Claire has been teaching Sirian the knowledge of spell configurations. Sirian also studied it very seriously, and finally released it successfully as Claire expected.

Just as Claire guessed, after Sirian practiced that "Frost Ghost Technique", it was easier to master Ice Element's spells.

The few days of leave ended quickly, and Claire sent Sirian back to the Knight Academy. For the current Sirian, Knight Academy is the most suitable place for him. There are some things here that Claire cannot teach him.

Although the Magic Swordmaster lineage has good prospects, it does not mean that the Battle Aura lineage is not good enough. If it can be passed down for hundreds of thousands of years, it must have its own uniqueness. And there is no conflict between the two, so you can practice dual cultivation. However, although dual cultivation is possible, Claire still advised Sirian to focus on Battle Aura's cultivation.

After all, the current magic line is still in its infancy, so there is no rush. Problems may arise if you practice too quickly.

"Marquis Hubert?"

As soon as Claire and Sirian entered Knight Academy, they saw a familiar figure.

"Hey, Viscount Claire!" Hubert also said hello to Claire unexpectedly. He just happened to come over today and didn't expect to meet Claire.

Claire walked over with Sirian. After Sirian approached, he concealed his inner shock and said hello, "Mr. Dean!"

He thought to himself: Lord Claire actually knows the dean of their college?! That is a sword master level existence!

Hubert's eyes fell on Sirian, then returned to Claire, and said, "This is the friend you mentioned in the Knight Academy."

Claire smiled and nodded, "Yes, good friend."

"I heard from the people below that you used the voucher I gave him to ask for several days of leave."

Claire pursed his lips and said, "Something happened, but it won't happen again."

"Hahahahaha, misunderstood, I don't mean to blame you." Hubert smiled heartily again, "Although Knight Academy is a little strict inside, it is not so strict, not to mention that this is what I promised to help you."

As Hubert spoke, his sentence suddenly paused. He glanced at Sirian suspiciously, then pointed at Sirian with his finger, and said uncertainly, "Is the fluctuation on his body magic power?"

A strange color flashed in Claire's eyes. If the mage noticed that Sirian had magic power fluctuations, he wouldn't be surprised. But Hubert, how could a Battle Aura practitioner be so sensitive?

Claire didn't say anything directly. He waved his hand first, indicating to Sirian to go in first.

"You go back first and I'll talk to your dean."

Sirian glanced back and forth between the two of them, and finally replied, "Yes!"

After Sirian walked away, Hubert joked, "Listening to his tone, it seems that you two are not good friends, but more like superiors and subordinates."

This is not surprising. Although most of the students in the Knight Academy will join the army after graduation, some are sent by noble families to cultivate their own private power. Moreover, many of the students who join the army are children of various families. So Hubert didn't think there was anything wrong with Sirian's tone just now. It was just that Claire didn't want to disclose their relationship.

Claire waved his hand and said with a smile, "They are really friends. I just saved his life before."

Hubert smiled, said nothing, and brought the topic to the topic just now.

"I just felt the magic power from his body, right?"

Claire raised his eyebrows and replied, "That's true. But don't worry, it's just that his magic talent is quite good, so I let him practice it for a while, which is just a small taste, and it won't affect his Battle Aura practice."

Claire had no intention of exposing the matter of Magic Swordmaster like this, and practicing magic was a good excuse.

"I don't mean that. It would be nice to have the talent to learn magic, but I don't have it."

"You are already a sword master level expert, and your talents in this area are not something ordinary people can possess."

He didn't know if it was because Claire felt wrong. He felt that when Hubert said that sentence, his tone was a little emotional, as if he was feeling regretful.

"Oh, by the way, you are High Mage now, right?" Hubert said suddenly.

Claire was a little surprised, but still replied, "Well, it's also the result of that fruit."

"You don't have to be so modest. You are already High Mage at the age of sixteen, which is already more than most mages." Hubert praised.

Claire felt that today's Hubert was a bit strange, but he couldn't tell what went wrong, so he could only continue to reply, "It's just good luck."

"Luck." Hubert sighed, "Luck is also a part of strength. Some people are just a little bit unlucky."

Claire had a vague guess in his mind. At this time, Hubert patted Claire on the shoulder and said earnestly, "With your talent, you will definitely be able to advance to the Archmage level before you are sixty years old."

After hearing the other party's words, Claire finally confirmed his guess and replied, "I'd like to lend you some good advice."

Hubert patted the clothes on his body and said, "I still have something to do, so I won't talk to you anymore. I'll talk more next time when I'm free."

"Goodbye!" Claire waved his hand.

Hubert took a few steps forward and then suddenly stopped, turned around and said, " Are you going to the wedding banquet of the heir of the Duke Charlie family?"

Duke Charlie is a hereditary title. The old Duke is about to abdicate, so the one who is getting married now is his heir, the new Duke Charlie.

Claire thought for a moment and replied, "I think Shane's invitation should be able to take me in, so I should go."

Claire originally planned to leave that matter to Shane himself, and there was no need for him to go to the scene. But now that Hubert's words are an invitation, it's not like he can't take some time to go and take a look.

Hearing Claire's humorous answer, Hubert laughed heartily and said, "Hahahaha, it's okay. You'll be stopped at the door by then. I'll take you in again, and I'm sure no one will stop you."

Claire bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Thank you very much."

"Hahahaha! It's so interesting to chat with you." Hubert laughed loudly again, "Let's talk about it at the next party. I really have something to leave."

In the innermost lounge of Tulip Shop, Claire was lying comfortably on the recliner and sofa, looking at Shane who was busying himself and asked.

"When was Duke Charlie's wedding held?"

Shane put down the gift box in his hand, turned around and said unexpectedly, "When will you pay attention to this kind of thing? Aren't you always in the library and not listening to anything outside the window?"

Hearing Shane's joke, Claire just smiled and said, "Go and have a look. If you are idle, you are idle."

Shane did not stop the work in his hands, and continued to be busy and replied, "It will start the day after tomorrow. Look, I am not preparing the gift box to be sent out at that time."

"Does a gift box have to be so particular? I see you have been busy for more than half an hour." Claire stood up and walked over.

Shane spread his hands helplessly, "Isn't this gift already selected? Then I can only work more on the gift box."

As he spoke, Shane suddenly remembered something, "I gave our product a new name. It was based on the content in your story. It's called - Cupid's Gift! How about it?"

Claire nodded after hearing it, "It's very good. This name sounds very straightforward, but it's not conventional."

Shane looked proud after hearing this and turned his head away, "Don't even look at who I am! I have already done the preliminary preparations and the reputation of the product has been established. As long as our products are famous at Duke Charlie's wedding banquet, we will definitely not have to worry about customers in the future."

"Yeah." Claire responded a few times, and then asked, "Tell me about this Duke Charlie. I don't know him very well yet."
