"Co, co, co, let's raise a toast to our Rosa for being successfully admitted to the Daran Magic Academy!"
The pot-bellied middle-aged nobleman raised his glass, trying to straighten his body with a smile.
The two won sitting on the other side were much more beautiful in comparison.
One was older and one was younger. From their features, one could see so similar contours, clearly a mother and daughter.
As Earl Nicholas's wife, the middle-aged noblewoman also imdiately stood up to echo, smiling, "Indeed, the Daran Empire is recognized worldwide as the land of magic. When you told the news that our daughter was admitted to the academy there, I was really shocked, I never expected it."
"Hey! What are you saying! I have always believed in my little angel. I knew from a young age that she was definitely a magical genius, so I'm not surprised at all by her success today. I even think it's a matter of fact, haha!"
Being praised and flattered by her parents like this, the young girl in formal attire at the end of the dining table also lowered her head in a bit of shyness.
However, Rosa quickly pouted and looked at her father with a puffed-up expression.
"Liar! If you really cared about back then, how could you have engaged to that waste of space, hmph!"
Seeing his daughter unhappy, Earl Nicholas quickly consoled, "Uh, this, about this, hey! It's all Dad's fault. It's indeed Dad's fault. I misjudged. I originally thought that boy had potential, but... Sigh, let's not ntion it, let's not ntion it."
"What do you an not ntion it! This concerns your daughter's reputation! What if in the future, when I go to Daran Academy, my classmates there inquire about these rumors? How... how will I find soone I truly like at Daran Academy then!"
Rosa threw a tantrum, and the originally joyous dinner party seed to have cooled down because of this.
It was the noblewoman on the other side who acted as a diator, "Don't worry Rosa. Your father has already added more manpower and increased the bounty for Reji's wanted notice. This ti, even the Black Lion rcenary Group has taken on the task, so you can rest assured. After all..."
The noblewoman gently stroked her daughter's beautiful hair, but the words from her mouth were very poisonous.
"After all, a dead man can't pester my precious daughter anymore."
"Yes, yes, yes, he's just a clown, a toad wanting to eat swan at. Rosa, Dad promises you, within three days, the Black Lion rcenary Group will definitely bring that boy's head to you!"
"Hmph, I'll forgive you for now. Alright, let's not talk about it. Just hearing that na makes feel sick."
The graceful noble girl's expression finally softened a bit.
Rosa knew about the Black Lion rcenary. Each of them was ruthless and had considerable strength. With them hunting down Reji, just based on that waste's ability, it was definitely a dead end for him.
In fact, she didn't hate Reji that much originally.
After breaking off the engagent, she even planned to give Reji so cultivation materials or gold coins as compensation.
But... Thinking of this, hatred now flickered in Rosa's originally lovely eyes.
But that ungrateful waste actually dared to take the initiative to divorce first in front of everyone?
Wasn't that just slapping in the face?
Forget it.
Why bother with a dead man?
Rosa changed her mood, and the noblewoman mother beside her also imdiately brought up another new topic.
"Rosa, you just said you want to find soone you like at Daran Academy. Could it be that you already have a target? Quick, tell Mommy about it~"
After her mother's words, the noble girl seed to think of sothing, and her face suddenly turned shy. She stamred a bit embarrassedly, "Yes... yes, he is the youngest instructor at Daran Academy and also the most powerful mage in the world in my opinion. He is... he is..."
"Professor lvin!"
Rosa mustered up the courage to say this resounding na, which was also the man of her dreams whom she had secretly admired for a long ti.
Hearing this, Earl Nicholas pondered for a mont, then suddenly slapped his thigh, as if he was also very familiar with this na.
"Oh! I know, I know! He's the champion of the previous Daran Empire's Arcane Tournant, right? My, my, I also watched the projection of that magic competition. It was really amazing! lvin was on a completely different level compared to the other contestants.
There were hardly any who could last more than three moves against him!"
"Yes, Professor lvin is a genius among geniuses in the entire world's magic community. He has also researched and invented countless spells. I... I actually worked so hard to apply for Daran Academy just for Professor lvin. I... I want to beco his apprentice!"
The noblewoman took the opportunity to interject, "Although Lord lvin is a professor, he's only around thirty years old and is very handso, right, Rosa?"
"Mm-hmm, Mom has also paid attention to Professor lvin before!"
Rosa's eyes sparkled, and her cheeks seed to turn red as well.
The noble girl's expression of admiration and adoration for lvin was completely different from the disgust and contempt she had shown towards Reji before, two extres.
"Hahaha, good, good, good. Dad believes you have this ability. Don't worry, Dad will fully support you! If you can really do it, our whole family will rise to prominence. Go for it, my sweetheart~!"
-"Unfortunately, she may not have this opportunity anymore."-
The lively atmosphere at the dining table was interrupted by this sentence.
The three mbers of the Earl Nicholas family were all stunned at the sa ti.
Hmm?
Who was talking?
"We et again, Rosa."
Reji leisurely tore through space and walked out from the void.
With a wave of his hand, the expensive champagne on the wine table floated towards him, along with an empty glass from the wine cabinet. They seed to be controlled by a magical spell, elegantly pouring a glass of wine for Reji.
Holding the wine glass, Reji approached the Earl's family, who were now staring with frightened eyes, possibly still in shock and not reacting yet.
"Hm!? Miss Rosa doesn't want to let join this celebration?"
Bang!
The first to co back to his senses was Earl Nicholas.
He suddenly slamd the table, his plump body under his uniform abruptly standing up. He glared at Reji, shouting angrily.
"You... how did you get in here! Guards! Where are the guards!"
"Don't bother shouting. I've already placed a sealing spell on this room. Without my permission, nothing that happens in here will ever be transmitted outside."
The stubborn Earl nervously ran towards the door. Reji didn't stop him and instead sat in the Earl's original seat at the head of the table, drinking the champagne in his glass.
Hmm.
Not bad.
The wine chosen by the nobility was indeed good.
Click, click!
At the door, no matter how Earl Nicholas turned the doorknob, the door remained motionless. And when the Earl wanted to use violent ans to forcefully break through the door and escape...
Buzz!
A powerful repulsive force directly blasted the Earl back. His plump body crashed onto the dining table full of dishes, causing the sauces to splash and the shattered plates to fall to the ground with a piercing sound.
There was a magical barrier in front of Reji, blocking all of this, but it wasn't so good for the Earl's wife and daughter.
"Ahhh!!"
The noblewoman and the beautiful girl, who had been elegant just now, were now in a sorry state, hugging each other in fear, trembling as they looked at Reji sitting in the main seat.
"Who... who are you? What do you want to do? And why are you using that person's appearance!!"
Obviously, they didn't believe at all that Reji was the "waste" Reji they knew.
Did this matter?
It didn't matter.
Reji didn't intend to waste more words either. He ca here just to make up for his regret from the first playthrough and...
To do another experint.
On the way, Reji had changed his mind. Directly killing the Earl Nicholas family was too simple. Moreover, this was actually different from killing Tabor. The Earl's family had too much influence. Even if he was the only witness "at the ti," the impact "afterward" would still be affected.
Unless...
"Co, look into my eyes."
"Yes, just like that."
Reji's voice seed to have a magical power. Rosa and the Earl's couple felt their willpower being rapidly stripped away. Their minds were leaving their brains. The deep eyes of the young man in front of them were like black holes, depriving them of their souls.
Indeed.
The eighth-tier spell "Mind Control" was indeed a bit overkill for these level 20-30 nobles.
But Reji didn't care.
Anyway, under the Demon King's fate track, all his mana consumption was zero.
Seeing the Earl's family's expressions gradually becoming dazed and confused, Reji nodded in satisfaction.
He first approached Rosa's well-mannered mother, using his hand to lift up the noblewoman's chin. His mind entered the other party's mind that had already turned blank. With an unquestionable absolute voice, he slowly said, "Madam, listen to ..."
