Chapter 240 Prince?
Although Bridget's personality seems cold, she is actually very gentle. She never fights or competes for anything and is a complete Buddhist girl.
So when Paven pitifully asked to switch places with her, Bridget thought about it and agreed.
By the time Leon reacted, Paven had already sat next to her with a smile on his face.
"Leon, do you need any help with the third round?"
"..."
Paven was not at all annoyed by Leon's silence; instead, she became even more enthusiastic.
"Leon, do you want some potion? I have a bottle of it..."
"Pawen!"
It was not Leon who interrupted Paven, but Graya who was sitting in the first seat.
Graya looked at Pawen with a forced smile, "Miss Pawen, please be mindful of the occasion."
Pawen nodded nonchalantly, "I know. A banquet is a place for everyone to connect and strengthen their relationships..."
"That's enough! I haven't settled the score with you for what happened in the past two days!"
Pawen said with some confusion: "Ah? What happened recently? What happened to me?"
Graya's face showed a bit more anger. She took out two palm-sized magic array plates and set up a high-intensity isolation magic array.
"Skipping the House Cup is a disgrace in itself. It would be fine if you just behaved honestly, but what are you doing? Spreading rumors?"
Graya's chest heaved with anger. "Do you want others to laugh at our Potions Club?"
Pavin took the wine glass next to him and turned it around twice casually.
"Our Potions Club? Is this our Potions Club now? Graya, this is your Potions Club, isn't it?"
Paven took a sip of the red wine and said, "You're using the power of the Potions Club to negotiate with the family and even suppress me, aren't you?
You deliberately indulged me and let me test Leon, didn't you?
And this time, you knew I was spreading the news, like Leon was my man... but what did you do? You also helped me, didn't you? "
Graya was silent.
Not only her, but Leon's three "outsiders" also pretended not to hear anything.
Pavin placed his wine glass in front of Leon. "Mr. Leon, what do you think? I wonder if I have helped you that much. I would be honored if I could help you see the true face of my sister."
After saying that, Pavin drank the wine in his glass in one gulp. "I was also tricked before and offended Mr. Leon. I hope Mr. Leon can forgive me."
Hearing this, Graya's fingers on the table trembled twice.
She did know that Paven was going to spread rumors, but she did not come forward to clarify or stop it.
She even pushed it secretly, fearing that it would not reach Leon's ears.
There are two reasons for this. On the one hand, she really didn't want to escalate the matter and let others laugh at their Potions Club.
on the other hand……
She still has selfish motives.
She deliberately let the rumor go because she knew that no matter who believed it, at least Leon, the person involved, would not believe it...
Then, when she confronts Pavin in front of Leon, maybe Leon will dislike Pavin even more...
This brought her and Leon even closer...
However, she didn't expect Pawen to be so brave and ruthless!
Memories flow, and the trauma in Graya's mind is revealed again...
In order to prevent herself from losing control, Graya was about to stand up, but Billie beside her held her thigh.
"Boss, it looks like my plan failed. Sigh, I'm so sad. I won't do this again."
Billie increased the strength of her left hand a little, then turned her head and put her right hand on Leon’s shoulder. She said to Leon, “Junior brother, you won’t blame me, right?”
Leon: ...
Alas, in order to just get by on the surface, he has to play dumb again.
Leon shook his head, "Of course not! Senior Sister is testing me!"
Billie: ...
"Hmm... um hahaha, Junior Brother is right! Otherwise, why do people say Junior Brother is smart? By the way, after the banquet, Junior Brother, remember to come back with me. I have something to give you."
Billie winked at Leon, who nodded seriously.
"understood!"
With these two sisters and brothers providing cover, Graya's mood quickly calmed down.
"call……"
Taking a deep breath, Graya looked at Paven expressionlessly, "This is father... this is his idea for you?
No, if it was him, it wouldn’t be that simple. It looks like it’s your mother…”
Noticing the change in Paven's expression, Graya confirmed her judgment.
"Oh, today's situation is special. I won't bother with you, but you'd better be careful."
Paven made a "tsk" sound and moved closer to Leon. "Mr. Leon, she's so fierce, I'm so scared! Can you protect me?"
Leon was not moved at all by this kind of primary green tea.
Unless she can give him a whole lollipop, he will believe that she really loves Giegie...
Leon leaned to the side helplessly, trying to keep himself as far away from Pawen as possible. "Ms. Pawen, please don't waste your time here. I'm just a rough guy..."
Paven's eyes suddenly widened. "Rough man? Great! I like... people!"
Leon and others: "..."
Unable to bear Paven's aggressive words, Graya snorted coldly and then directly put away the isolation magic circle.
Seeing Graya's actions, Pawen restrained herself a little. She sat up straight and became an elegant young lady again.
The moment the magic circle withdrew, Leon felt dozens of gazes focused on him.
Besides the members of the Potions Club, the nearby wizards also showed curiosity, and some were already whispering to each other...
Leon knew without thinking that they were teasing him.
Because Graya put her arm around his shoulder and Pawen stuck close to him, everyone realized that what had just happened must be related to Leon.
He was sitting among a few people, which was already eye-catching enough, and now he was even arousing the jealousy of some people.
Leon glanced at Kaiyan, who seemed about to burst into flames, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, maybe he really liked Pawen...
Paven, who was closest to Leon, noticed Leon's gaze and raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
Then she lifted her hair, smiled and said to Leon: “Mr. Leon, what I said just now is still valid.”
Leon was stunned. “What words are still valid?”
Pawen seemed to be choked and replied awkwardly: "I can also help you. No matter what you need, I will do my best to help you..."
Pawen thought for a moment and added, "Although the Lannion family is not as wealthy as the Sig Chamber of Commerce, we have long-term partners in the central and even eastern parts of the continent.
So you can totally trust us.”
This is solicitation, blatant solicitation.
Because Pavin did not hide anything, the wizards around him also heard the generous conditions offered by Pavin... or the Lanyon family.
Faced with Pavin's proposal, Leon just smiled slightly.
"If I remember correctly, President Graya is also from the Lanyon family, right?"
Paven nodded reluctantly, "Of course, but this is the condition I fought for you..."
Pawen looked at Leon, then at Graya. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind. She leaned over to Leon's ear and said, "Mr. Leon, do you like Graya?"
Even though her voice was low enough, the people nearby were not ordinary people, so they all pricked up their ears and heard their conversation...
Leon was startled by this sudden remark, and then he waved his hands repeatedly and said: “Ms. Pawen, I told you not to spread rumors!”
Pawen curled his lips and said, "If you are willing to accept my help, I might try to help you."
"Ah? Fighting for what?"
Looking at the somewhat confused Leon, Pavin chuckled.
Graya stretched out her hand and poked Leon hard in the waist.
"Why are you talking so much! Just eat your food!"
Although he was full, Leon could only use food as a cover.
These nobles were quite particular. When they saw Leon eating, they generally didn't disturb him. If they wanted to communicate, they would wait until he finished eating...
But Leon didn't feel comfortable eating because Pavin was staring at him all the time.
Fortunately... the banquet finally began.
To be precise, the speech began.
Interestingly, James is the host...
"Everyone, let us welcome Dean Lamos!"
Vice Dean Lawmos spoke first. Perhaps he was satisfied with the way James addressed him, so he nodded appreciatively at James before beginning to speak.
"First of all, congratulations on becoming the winner of the second round of the Academy Cup..."
After Lamos finished speaking, it was Daniel from the "sponsor" family's turn.
Even though Daniel is very busy now, as the "spokesperson" of the Sig family in the Black Bone Forest, it is still necessary for him to be present.
The content of the speeches was actually pretty much the same, all saying that they were outstanding talents and wizards worthy of being vigorously cultivated by the Black Bone Forest.
Therefore, everyone should continue to work hard and let the academy see you, so that you can be cultivated faster...
In addition, Daniel also mentioned one point, which is to be careful in what you say and do.
At the same time, as a professor, he also set a task - the Burbank Jungle Search Plan.
Although Daniel didn't say it explicitly, everyone understood what he meant.
And after hearing some of the rewards revealed by Daniel, many wizards were indeed tempted.
The professors spoke one by one, and by the end, Leon actually felt like he was in class and felt drowsy for a while.
But soon, James' words made Leon perk up, and a burst of surprised voices were heard around.
"Finally, let us welcome the genius from the Vis Islands—Mr. Alexander!"
Leon was numb.
What’s going on? How did he suddenly become a “student representative”?
No wonder he got a professorship right from the start...
Alexander still felt a little lacking in confidence when facing such a situation.
He subconsciously glanced at Lamos, who led the applause in an encouraging manner.
Leon: ...
This is too obvious...
Although he complained in his heart, Leon still joined everyone in applauding Alexander.
Alexander heard the warm applause, took a deep breath, and then slowly said:
"Hello everyone, I'm Alexander..."
The speech was in a fixed combination. Alexander first introduced himself, followed by a series of thanks.
Thank you to Hei Gulin, thank you to Lamos, thank you to Hemeri, and thank you to everyone present.
But in the end, Alexander revealed a piece of news that surprised everyone.
"To meet new challenges, I will establish a new club. No matter your level, as long as you pass the test, you can join..."
Before Alexander could finish speaking, a wizard in front suddenly stood up.
"Hey! Alexander! What's the name of your club and what does it do?"
Leon looked at the wizard who was speaking and thought that he was a true warrior.
Alexander was not at all unhappy about being interrupted. He smiled at the wizard who asked the question.
"I know you. You are Mr. Paidaxing. When you were at the intermediate level of the first level, you defeated two advanced first-level wizards..."
Paidaxing seemed to have not expected Alexander to do this, so he bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Alexander, I was rude just now."
Alexander waved his hand nonchalantly, "Mr. Paidaxing, your question is very good, and it also reminds me of something.
The club I founded is called... the Hunting Club."
When they heard the name, the atmosphere in the auditorium became solemn.
Alexander glanced at Lamos, who had closed his eyes as if sleeping, and continued, "As for what the society does...
It's very simple, just hunting, but what exactly I'm hunting for... Sorry, Mr. Paidaxing, please allow me to keep it a secret for now."
Paidaxing nodded, "I see! But unfortunately, I already have a club..."
Alexander waved his hand. "Mr. Paidaxing, that's not the case. According to the instructions of Vice President Lamos, he will serve as the honorary mentor of our society...
At the same time, the Hunting Club... has already cooperated with most of the clubs in the college, so you can definitely join both clubs at the same time!"
Paidaxing clapped his hands suddenly! "I see! In that case... I'm willing to join the hunting club!"
Leon: ...
Damn! This isn't a warrior, this Chunchun is a shill! He's an actor!
But you know what, with the first-level advanced Paidaxing as a demonstration, and the presence of a powerful wizard at the level of the dean himself as an honorary mentor, several wizards expressed their desire to join the hunting group on the spot.
The scene suddenly became very lively!
As for James and Graya...
Their faces turned green...
The three major societies in the Black Bone Forest, eh??!
Thinking of this, Leon suddenly realized, where is Hilda?
Why isn't she here?
So...she already knew this in advance?
Inexplicably, Leon once again thought of the "seed" Dora mentioned...
This isn't a seed, it's a prince!
So, Alexander and Hilda, the championship has been booked by them?
