"If I help you, can we split it 50-50?" Sophia looked directly at Claire with a charming look.
Claire: "..."
"Actually, it's not a big deal, so I won't bother you, madam."
Sophia covered his mouth and laughed, "I'm just kidding you, but how did you know that I have a relationship with the Magic Academy? Did this little guy tell you?"
As he spoke, Sophia glanced at Shane, who was still lowering his head to eat. Shane still didn't raise his head and continued to deal with the plate of food in front of him.
"Isn't it easy to see?" Claire said softly, "Madam, the reason why your chain stores can open throughout the kingdom is because the transportation channels must be very developed, and which noble in the entire royal capital doesn't know that your transportation channel is Magic Academy's Light Chasing Bird, and this kind of bird is unique to the Royal Capital Magic Academy. Except for your August Family, no other noble has ever obtained this kind of magical creature. In addition, aren't many of the magic items in the magic shop you open also come from the Magic Academy?"
"Just based on these few points, you can conclude that I have a relationship with the Magic Academy?"
"Aren't these points enough?" Claire replied confidently, but the truth is what Sophia guessed. Her relationship with the Magic Academy was indeed what Shane told him. Claire deduced the cause from the result.
"Enough, my family does have some relationship with the Magic Academy." Sophia dragged his chin and asked, "Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"
"It's not a big deal. I want to study in the Royal Capital Magic Academy for a while." Claire said. The collection of books in the Magic Academy is definitely more than what he has at home. They are richer and more advanced. He has seen the Magic Book in his home many times, and he won't gain much from reading it any more. This time he finally came to the capital. He wanted to gain more magic knowledge, and the best way was to join Magic Academy.
Magic Academy Not only has books, but being able to talk to the mages inside is also an extraordinary gain for Claire.
Sophia looked Claire up and down and asked, "Aren't you also a magician? With your strength, it shouldn't be a problem to enter Magic Academy."
"Royal Capital Magic Academy's enrollment has ended and we are no longer accepting people, and I won't stay in the capital for a long time, so I thought of troubling you."
Sophia didn't speak. He stared at Claire's eyes for a while and suddenly smiled, "Okay, you can report to the Magic Academy tomorrow."
"Thank you ma'am!"
"You're welcome, you owe me a favor."
"Okay." Claire nodded. It would be really difficult for him to find a way to get into the Magic Academy. Shane is now doing business on his own. He can't use his family connections to help him at all. He is also unfamiliar with the place and doesn't know anyone in the Magic Academy, so he can only ask Sophia for help.
"You are an interesting person. That's it for today's conversation. We will meet again in the future."
"I'm looking forward to this day." Claire nodded slightly.
Sophia walked towards the door of the restaurant with his long legs. At this time, Shane finally stopped pretending to be dead and quickly stood up and followed Claire out.
At the entrance of the restaurant, as soon as Sophia walked out of the door, the passers-by on the roadside were stunned, stopped and looked over. It was difficult not to attract others' attention with his aura.
"There's no need to send it away. I'll have someone send the contract to you tomorrow."
Shane smiled and said, "It is our honor to cooperate with you, madam."
"The little guy is really good at talking."
As soon as Claire walked out of the door, his eyes unconsciously looked towards the alleyway before, looking for the figure of Beggar Boy.
The other party did not move away, he was still lying there, but he seemed to have no strength to even raise his head.
Sophia looked at Claire, "Huh?"
Then he followed Claire's gaze and saw the dying boy. He showed a smile and asked, "Do you want to save him?"
Claire looked away and shook his head slightly. "No, there are so many suffering people in the world. I can't save them all. I'm just curious. There is actually a beggar here, but he has not been driven away."
"It's just something done by the small gangs in the underground. Some children have been trained to steal since they were young. If they are caught stealing and have their limbs broken and cannot steal, they will be thrown into these places to gain sympathy and beg. Those small gangs are still the white gloves of some nobles, so no one has ever cared about them."
Claire The corners of his mouth turned up slightly and he said with a smile, "How could Madam know so much."
Sophia laughed, "You don't think I have any connection with these small gangs, do you?"
"That's not true." Claire believed that the other party, a count, would not even care about this kind of money. He was just teasing the other party.
"Naughty." Sophia tapped Claire's nose with his finger, "I won't talk to you anymore. I have something else to do and leave first."
"Madam, walk slowly!"
Shane also said quickly, "Madam, walk slowly!"
Claire and Shane breathed a sigh of relief after the backs of Sophia's carriage and the more than 20 guards gradually became smaller and disappeared.
"Huh!" Shane let out a long breath. When Sophia was present, he felt as if a big stone was weighing on his heart.
Claire's reaction was not that big, but he felt relieved.
"Lord Viscount, I really admire you for being able to talk and laugh with someone like Lady Sophia."
Claire glanced at Shane, "If you were more reliable, I wouldn't have to deal with it alone. I would have seen you eating during the whole process."
"Then I have to dare. When I see her, it's like seeing my father. I feel so oppressed that I don't dare to talk to her."
"Indeed." Claire nodded. It was true that the other party gave her a great sense of oppression. Although he talked to the other party as if he were having a casual conversation, anyone with some experience could feel the oppression caused by the other party's every move. This kind of thing is difficult to explain. Just like some high-ranking officials in previous lives, if they sit in that position for a long time, they will naturally exude an aura called Authoritative Aura.
"But I see that Lady Sophia is very fond of you." Shane joked.
Claire rolled his eyes, "Do you dare to do it for me? It's almost as good as me being eaten by her. Who can be a good person who got to the position of earl by himself, and she is too smart."
"What do you mean?"
"Between lovers, either both are idiots, one is smart and the other is stupid, or you are smart and she is smarter than you, otherwise it is impossible to be together."
"I'm interested, please elaborate."
"People can be backward compatible, but they cannot be upward compatible. If two idiots are together, they will be happy every day. If a stupid person and a smart person are together, the smart person can be downward compatible with each other, and life can be very comfortable. But it is impossible for two people who are both smart to be together. The other person will know the meaning behind your random actions, and you can guess what she wants to do with her random words, and life will be very difficult."
Claire continued to ask, "You are also very smart. Will you find a wife who can see through all your thoughts and is evenly matched with you?"
Shane was stunned, shook his head and said, "Indeed not, what you said makes some sense."
It took a few seconds for Shane to react, "No, you mean you are as smart as Lady Sophia?"
Shane is still a little unacceptable. In his opinion, Sophia is on the same level as his father. Although Claire is more powerful than him, he is about the same age as him. How could he be so powerful?
Claire shrugged and said with a smile, "You can understand that, don't think so much, our carriage is here, let's go."
