Sirian asked anxiously, "Aren't you in the royal capital?"

"Of course, I am the Field Viscount and of course I have to return to my own territory."

"Where is your territory?"

"Griffin Barony—Nafu City!"

Sirian looked puzzled. He had never heard of this city, and Claire also saw his doubts.

"Don't worry, within a few years, this name will spread throughout the kingdom."

"That's natural. After all, it's your territory."

"Oh, by the way, since you can read, I'll give you this Battle Aura Cultivation Method." Claire took out Nafu City's Battle Aura Cultivation Method worth five hundred thousand Gold Coins.

Sirian was overjoyed and quickly thanked, "Thank you Lord Claire!"

Although there is a general Battle Aura Cultivation Method circulating in the world, it is only the most basic Cultivation Method. It would be good to be promoted to the trainee Battle Aura. If you want to advance further, either Become a noble knight and obtain Cultivation Method in that territory, or take on tasks in the Adventurer's Guild to earn Gold Coins, and then buy a more advanced version of Battle Aura Cultivation Method.

"Emmm" Claire pondered for a while, and then took out the skill book that he bought from Spatial Ring, "I'll give this book to you, too, to help you practice Battle Aura faster. After reading it, give it to the owner of this store, and he will return it to me. I hope that when we meet next time, you are already Silver Knight."

After the other party gained a certain status, he still thought of coming back to be loyal to him. Based on this, Claire felt that he could give him a certain amount of trust.

Sirian preciously took the ancient book handed over by Claire and promised, "I will not disappoint your expectations."

Sirian thought to himself: Sure enough, his intuition when he was about to die that day did not deceive him. Lord Claire is indeed a noble person who can change his destiny.

"Come on, I'm leaving."

"Sir, walk slowly!" Sirian bowed slightly.

After Claire rode the Wolf King away, Sirian still stood there for a long time, watching him leave.

After a while, a man who looked like a younger brother ran over, leaned next to Sirian and whispered, "Boss, who is this? Why do you respect him so much? I feel like he is not older than you."

"Zheng!" The razor was pressed against the neck of the person who just spoke. Sirian no longer had the humility he had when facing Claire.

He said coldly, "His affairs are not yours to inquire about. If there is a next time, don't let your head dwell on it."

That near-death experience made him feel like he was reborn. The world was not kind to him, and there was no need for him to embrace the world with kindness, except for Lord Claire, who saved himself.

The man was sweating coldly and nodded in agreement. He was panicking. He had always heard the cruelty of the new boss from other people's mouths. The rumors about the ruthless man who massacred the entire gang and broke the bones of other gang bosses could not match his appearance, a pretty boy who was popular with girls. However, when the razor was pressed against his neck, he could really feel the real killing intent.

Sirian looked down at the two books in his arms, then looked at the direction Claire was leaving, and said to himself: I will grow to the point where I can help you.

Maybe Claire didn't expect that a beggar he randomly saved would be so loyal to him.

Claire stayed in the Magic Academy's library for another two days. During the process, many girls wanted to ask him out, but they were all rejected. How can women have fun with magic?

In the afternoon of the next day, Isaac ran over excitedly and said excitedly, "You are too awesome. Today my instructor relented and said that as long as I don't regret wanting to go, I can go!"

Claire Feng Qingyun nodded calmly, "I told you that there are senior officials who know Magic Academy."

"Great, when my diploma comes out tomorrow, I can go to Nafu City with you!"

"Did the graduation certificate come out too?" Claire didn't expect Sophia to be so fast and also get the graduation certificate done.

"Well, I'm surprised too. I didn't even plan to get a diploma, but my instructor still sent it to me." Isaac scratched his head.

"It's a good thing anyway." Claire shrugged.

"That's right."

"By the way, can you help ask Teklin? Ask him if he is willing to go to Nafu City?" Claire said. He is too greedy for the dwarf's forging skills. If such a blacksmith goes back with him, it will be even more powerful for Isaac who has the guidance of Claire.

"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult. It has been in the capital for more than ten years, and it may not want to leave." Isaac is also a little embarrassed.

"I'll give him twice the salary he earns here." Claire never thought of using Isaac's friendship with the other party to impress him.

"Then that's easy. Dwarves usually go wherever they can make money, not to mention that they will definitely be willing to do it if I'm still there!" Isaac also smiled. If a familiar acquaintance goes with him, he can adapt faster.

"I'm going to ask it right now!" Isaac ran out again in a hurry.

Claire also left the library not long after Isaac left and returned to the store. At this time, Shane had also helped him find all the people he wanted, a total of six Magic Apprentice, the four junior mages, are all grey-bearded old men who have spent most of their lives unable to break through, but they all have a specialty, such as junior inscriptions and refining potions, which are the basic requirements of Claire.

The rest are professional talents, such as several accountants, metallurgists, architects, etc.

Back in the lounge, Shane was the first to mention. "Lady Sophia has sent people out to buy Nightmare Flower. All the Nightmare Flower in the royal capital have been bought out, and some rumors have spread."

Claire touched his nose and said, "There is no rush yet. We will wait until various gossips spread before we start buying it, otherwise it will be too conspicuous."

"My father sent someone to remind me, saying that it is best not to touch the recent business related to Nightmare Flower." Shane said with a smile. Now Shane has an inexplicable sense of superiority. Although he knows that he is not as good as his father now, but for so long, this is the only thing I know. I have more inside information than you. Things that you think are dangerous, I think I can do it!

"As expected of a big family, they managed to stay vigilant so quickly with just a few actions."

Claire doesn't think that Shane's father discovered Sophia behind it. They are all bosses of the same level. It is impossible for Sophia to be discovered by the other party so quickly, so at most it is just intuition that has been experienced in shopping malls.

"When do you expect it to be over?"

"No more than three weeks."

"Why?"

Claire spread his hands, "The shelf life of those Nightmare Flower is only three weeks. They come and go. Even if they want to continue playing, it depends on whether the flower can bear it."

Speaking of this, Claire reminded him uneasily, "Remember what I told you, when it doubles, you will withdraw your hands, and don't continue to mix in."

More than half of the two million was his money. After it was squandered by Shane, what else could he use to build a beautiful countryside?

"Don't worry, I won't be greedy." Shane promised.

After getting the other party's assurance, Claire relaxed and lay down on the sofa.

"I will go back to Nafu City tomorrow, and I will leave it to you to take care of things here. Do you remember the boy you rescued a few days ago?"

"Oh, right! If you don't tell me, I almost forgot. He came over at noon and asked me to give this book to you. And let me tell you, he is different from before. It seems that he has cultivated Battle Aura."

Claire sat up in surprise, "So fast?" He only gave the book to the other party at noon yesterday, and he cultivated Battle Aura in one day?

"What's so fast?" Shane was confused.

Claire took the ancient book and put it into Spatial Ring, and said casually, "It's okay, just saw it. If he comes over and asks you for help in the future, just help him if you can."

Shane nodded slightly, "Understood."

The trip to the royal capital is finally over, now we can go home and continue farming.

There should be another chapter tonight, after all, we promised to update it
