Chapter 285: A discerning eye for talent?
"Leon! Leon!"
James looked at the cheering wizards in the audience with a slightly solemn expression.
Since when...
"James, what are you looking at?"
Daniel's question brought him back to reality, "They're cheering."
"Haha..." Daniel smiled, his tone full of disdain.
"and then?"
James exhaled a breath of foul air, "They are cheering for Leon. If Leon finds them..."
Daniel understood what James meant, but he still said nonchalantly: "Of course they will cheer, bet on Leon, and then earn two or three credits, haha..."
Daniel said, and suddenly laughed.
"James, you don't think... these low-level guys can help Leon, or... threaten us, right?"
James was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
Subconsciously, he also felt that these people were insignificant...
However, Leon defeated Alexander... Even through this, James felt that Beatrice's death might have something to do with him.
I didn't want to doubt Leon before because I thought Leon didn't have the ability to hurt Beatrice, but now it's different...
Since there is strength, there is suspicion.
"James, let me ask you, what did Vice President Lamos say to you just now?"
James frowned slightly, "Nothing..."
"I advise you to tell me the truth, otherwise the one who comes to question you tomorrow will not be me, but your father."
James: "..."
After a few seconds of silence, James slowly said, "Vice President Lawmos probably wants us all to calm down..."
"I want to hear the original words!"
Daniel seemed like a different person at this moment, with a very tough and bad attitude.
But James has actually gotten used to it. When it comes to loving family, Daniel is definitely at the forefront.
This was one of the reasons why, even though James wanted to stay away from Daniel, he still forced himself to stay by his side and do things.
James took a deep breath and told him roughly what Lawrence had said to him at that time.
"Dean Lamos said... the academy will not forget the Sig family. The two complement each other and benefit each other..."
"laugh……"
Daniel's sneer interrupted James's speech, then he restrained his smile, nodded slightly and said: "Sorry, I couldn't help it, you can continue."
"..."
James paused and continued, "Dean Lamos also said... the relationship between the two sides is a bit strained... that's basically it."
There are some things James naturally can't say exactly, such as the sentence "There are always some people who can't see these things clearly"...
This sentence is almost mentioning Daniel and his father's name directly...
After hearing what James said, Daniel sneered again, "Last time, when they were chatting with me, they were showing goodwill to me in their words, but! James, don't fall into their trap. They just want to paralyze us. If we let our guard down... hmph!"
Daniel glanced at him, then took two steps closer to James, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, James took three steps back.
Daniel's palm froze in mid-air, "James, do you really... hate me so much?"
James didn't respond.
Daniel sighed, "Ah... James, you know, I treat you..."
"Professor Daniel, if there is nothing else, please allow me to return to..."
"Don't go! Stay with me a little longer!"
James frowned, "Professor Daniel..."
Daniel quickly said, "At least... wait until they've all dispersed before you leave. What if something else happens?"
James lowered his head and said nothing more.
The spacious VIP box fell into silence.
But James' heart was not at peace. He thought about a lot, about his past, his future, and Beatrice's affairs...
Beatrice...
I will find the murderer, I will!
……
After Bai Morgan announced the end of the first-level lower-level group stage of the College Cup, Leon chatted with him for a few more words before retreating from the duel stage.
As soon as I walked down the next step, two excited shouts came over!
"Leon! Leon!"
Leon looked over when he heard the sound and saw Billie and Graya running towards him quickly.
"Leon! You win!"
Leon looked at Billie, smiled and nodded, “Senior Sister, I win.”
Billie was about to say something else when she was pushed aside by Graya.
"Junior brother, you really did it! From today on, you are the vice president of our Potions Club!"
"???"
What... This is too sudden...
"Senior, what are you doing..."
"That's settled for now. You don't have to worry about anything, just put your name on it, but you won't lose any benefits!"
Before Leon could answer, Billie snorted, “Today is a happy day worth celebrating, why are you talking about these things?”
"I just want to make my junior brother happier!"
“Bah!” Billy said with a smile: “Just a vice president, can he be compared to Leon’s number one?”
Graya chuckled, then leaned close to Leon and said, "Of course one vice president is not enough, so... don't you still have me, Junior Brother? Tonight, I will listen to you in everything. No... not only today, but also in the future. Are you satisfied with this?"
Leon smelled a familiar fragrance and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Under Graya's gaze, Leon nodded.
"Great!"
Billie was immediately annoyed, "Junior brother, I was here first!"
Graya laughed out loud, "Billie, it doesn't matter whether you come early or late, what matters is... eh?"
Leon had also noticed Professor Robinson flying over. Leon's impression of Robinson, the "commentator" of the event, was really average.
So, when Professor Robinson landed beside them, Billie took a step forward and spoke first: "Professor Robinson..."
Robinson smiled and nodded, then said concisely: "Mr. Leon, Professor Dora wants to see you. She's upstairs."
Leon was stunned for a moment, then looked in the direction Robinson gestured. That direction... was indeed the private room he had visited after his first duel...
After glancing at Dora and Graya, Leon nodded, "Okay, thank you for troubling Professor Robinson."
Robinson quickly waved his hands, "No trouble! Not at all!"
Just now, Dora wanted to come over by herself, or just send a message, but he persuaded Dora with all his might, and then he took the initiative to fight for this task which was not considered a task.
Looking at Robinson and Leon going to the VIP viewing room one after another, Graya frowned and asked in confusion: "Professor Robinson and Professor Dora... are they familiar with each other?"
Billie shook her head. "No, we haven't met much before."
"Then why... Professor Robinson has to convey it for Professor Dora..." Perhaps because she felt that the word "convey" was not a good word, Graya changed the wording, "Why does Professor Robinson help Professor Dora..."
Billie shook her head. "How would I know? But... did you feel that the way Professor Robinson looked at Leon just now... was a little strange?"
After hearing what Billie said, Graya also felt that it was true.
Moreover, she was very familiar with that look because she often saw it around her.
It was a very kind look, one could even say it was one that wanted to please...
It's an illusion, it seems.
Professor Robinson, that shouldn't be the case...
Billie and Graya didn't know that if they hadn't been watching, Robinson's attitude towards Leon would have been two levels higher...
……
"Oops! Gone!"
Nash was so angry that he slapped his thigh twice!
He and Dick wanted to go up and greet them first, but when they noticed Billie and the others, they all stopped.
The new team members found this very strange.
Durant asked with some confusion, "Isn't that President Graya? It doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with us going together."
Seeing Billie, Pamerkin added, "That should be Mr. Leon's senior sister, the multi-armed witch Billie..."
Nash nodded, "Yes, it's them!"
"One is Mr. Leon's president, and the other is Mr. Leon's senior sister... Can't we go over there?"
Having just joined Leon's camp, they felt like they were all one, so they wanted to get to know Graya and Billie, at least to get to know them and tell them that they were Leon's men...
Nash sighed, then said in a tone of regret: "Remember, these two ladies are not just the president and senior sisters. You must be respectful!"
In fact, they would be very respectful even without Nash saying anything, after all, neither of them was an ordinary wizard.
But now seeing that Nash had some hidden meaning in his words, several people couldn't help but guess that there was a complicated relationship between Leon and them.
As for wizards and witches, apart from that little bit of relationship, there seemed to be no other connection, so everyone was so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
Oh my god...
How on earth did Leon do it?!
Hehe! As expected of their boss...
In this case, doesn't it mean that President Graya's family... also supports Leon? !
I'm... again...
Leon! Strong! Leon! Steady!
The giant dragon in the swamp has begun to fly!
……
"Pawen really has a keen eye for talent, hahahahaha!"
In a luxurious hall, Pavin sat quietly at the table.
In addition to her, there were two other people sitting at the head of the long table, and another one standing next to them.
The person who spoke just now was a middle-aged man in a golden robe.
But if you look closely at the corners of his eyes and other parts, you can still see wrinkles that are not consistent with his age.
Pavin slowly stood up, "Grandpa Xavier, thank you for the compliment."
Xavier smiled and said, "Isaac, Pavin's house arrest should be lifted, right?"
Isaac, who was sitting at the head of the group, was a middle-aged man with a pale complexion. At first glance, he looked several years older than Xavier.
But Isaac is actually Pavin's biological father and Xavier's nephew.
"How could I possibly give the Jinzhu Ring to an outsider so carelessly..."
"Hey!" Xavier interrupted, "How is it sloppy? What's sloppy?"
Xavier turned around and waved his hand, motioning for Pavin to sit down first.
"It was obviously little Pawen who discovered his potential. He has potential himself, and the teacher is still Dora. I see, it's not hasty at all!"
Isaac: “…”
Isaac had no idea what to do when facing Xavier, who was very protective of Pavin.
So he could only sigh, "The house arrest can be...can be lifted, but you can't participate in the next battle!"
Pawen frowned. "No! I want to join too! Graya..."
Isaac slammed the table with a "boom!" and said, "Justice!"
Pawen: “…”
At this time, Isaac said to the butler Sibo beside him: "Keep an eye on her. If she dares to leave, bring her back!"
Sibo quickly bowed and said, "Yes!"
Paven gritted his teeth and said, "I have Leon to protect me!"
Hearing this, Isaac actually laughed out loud.
"Hehehe, Pawen, do you think Leon will protect you?"
Without waiting for Pavin's reply, Isaac answered himself: "No! He has others to protect! Even if he is willing to protect you, you will be the last one in line!"
"..."
"Don't think I didn't investigate him. From what I've heard, he doesn't seem to have much of a fondness for you, does he?"
These words were already quite powerful. Seeing that Paven's face was red with anger, Isaac slowly added the last sentence to her.
"I was scared to tears by Leon. I thought you were a princess and he was your knight?"
"Haha, Isaac, stop talking. No matter what, Pavin gave the Golden Pillar Ring to Leon. Even if Leon is reluctant, as long as the thing is with him, that's enough."
As he spoke, Xavier praised Pavin again.
"Pawen, you did a great job on this matter. Leon has great potential, and Dora behind him is also very powerful. You have a good vision."
After being praised by Xavier, Pavin's anger immediately dissipated.
"Thank you, Grandpa Xavier!"
Looking at the two people in harmony, Isaac snorted coldly, "Does she have good taste? It's clearly a blind cat catching a dead mouse. If she wasn't angry with Graya and competing with her, do you think she would notice Leon?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Pavin's face, which had been red just now, turned pale in an instant.
Because...what Isaac said is basically true.
"Isaac!"
Xavier's voice unconsciously rose a few notes. "I just said, no matter what, the ring is already in Leon's hand. In other words, he and our Lanyon family are inseparable!"
"Ugh……"
Isaac sighed, then said to Sibo, "Take the young lady back to her room."
"Yes!"
……
After Sibo left with a sad and unwilling Pawen, Xavier asked doubtfully, "Why did you say this to Pawen today?"
"Two days ago... to be exact, on the very night after the dinner, I received a letter from Graya."
