    Although Hathaway's mathematical knowledge is already very advanced for his peers, in the eyes of Douglas and Fernando, this is really not a problem worth spending too much mental energy on, so Hathaway kept flipping through the books.  , kept pointing at one of the questions with her slender fingers without saying a word, and then waited for the standard, simple answer, and every time, she was not disappointed.

    Knight teacher Sharp, who was eating grilled fish with honey and drinking strong wine, was gradually attracted by the situation here. He forgot to reminisce with Old Green, frowned slightly, and looked at Douglas and Fernando carefully.

    Perhaps because of a little excitement, Hathaway's face was slightly rosier than before. After a long time, she closed the book, lowered her head, and whispered: "Thank you."

    Just when Fernando was about to laugh, Sharp suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand, stood up from the high chair, and said with a smile: "Old Green, I didn't expect that your guest here is not only a philosopher, but also a mathematician. I  He looks better than those palace teachers"

    He was speaking to Old Green, but his clear blue eyes were staring at Douglas and Fernando.

    Old Green picked up Sharp¡¯s drinking glass and put it into the sink to clean. At the same time, he muttered: ¡°What¡¯s weird about this? Many guys who are good at mathematics and physics have some philosophical thinking.¡±

    "Yes, mathematics is the ultimate expression of philosophy." Douglas laughed along with Old Green's words.

    Fernando curled his lips and turned his head to the side, as if he disdained talking to Sharp, a barbarian.

    Sharp chuckled, no longer staring at Douglas and Fernando, but walked slowly to Hathaway's side, smiling as he watched her take small bites of the already cold honey grilled fish: "Hathaway, grilled fish here  How does it taste?"

    "Not bad." Facing his knight teacher, Hathaway remained concise and to the point, refusing to say even half a word more.

    "After tasting it, it's time for us to leave. You have to go back to enjoy dinner. I can't let them know that I took you to eat randomly." Sharp said with a smile.

    Hathaway took off the white handkerchief hanging on the left side of her knight uniform, wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully, and then nodded lightly: "Yes."

    "Take your knight's sword and don't throw it away at will, but remember that you can't affect yourself for it. The life of a knight lies in his creed, his spirit, and his will, not the sword in his hand." Sharp finally said:  What happened before taught Hathaway two things.

    Hathaway picked up the giant sword that was taller than herself and frowned slightly, as if she still didn't agree with this statement. However, she did not refute it directly, but followed Sharp to the hotel door with some contemplation and staggering.

    Just as she stepped out of the door, she suddenly turned her head, still expressionless, but the coldness and ruthlessness in her silver-gray eyes seemed to soften a little. Then, she nodded slightly to Douglas and Fernando, as if to thank them again for their work in mathematics and physics just now.  Guidance on issues.

    After they left, Fernando spoke with a half-smile and a half-humor: "With silver-gray pupils and indifferent eyes, is she a descendant of the Hoffenberg family? I wonder what her relationship is with the 'Sword of Truth'?"

    He looked at Old Green from the corner of his eye, waiting for his answer.

    "The Sword of Truth" is King Wilhelmsson of Holm?  The title of Hoffenberg, he is a legend more powerful than the "Heart of Time" Ctonia. He is the first knight to follow the "Religion of Truth" to resist the rule of the Magic Empire, so the "God of Truth" specially sends down divine grace.  , "gifted" him an epic sword consistent with his bloodline, which was also named the "Sword of Truth."

    "You don't need to know." Old Green replied without raising his eyes.

    Fernando snorted: "This kind of thing is easy to investigate. Not everyone thinks it is a secret like you, an old guy waiting to die."

    Old Green turned a deaf ear to his taunts and concentrated on wiping the wine glass in his hand.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Early the next morning, Fernando knocked on Douglas¡¯s door because after he woke up, he found that he had new ideas about a certain magic issue, so he came over excitedly to communicate.

    "I admit that my opinion yesterday was a little wrong" Fernando said sincerely as soon as the door opened, but he stopped abruptly in the middle of his words because Douglas was not the only one in the room. "Vice President, what are you doing?"  here we go again?"

    Sitting on the armchair in front of the desk was Vice President Rigg who was "roared" away by him a few days ago!

    "Can't I come?" Rige touched his aquiline nose and said in a gloomy tone.

    Fernando chuckled, and was about to speak sarcastically.He was so shameless, but was interrupted by Douglas: "President Rigg is here to give me a task."

    "Task? What task does you, the Nine Ring Archmage, need to do? Study Arlinge?" Fernando's expression began to become serious.

    Douglas smiled peacefully and said: "Let me find a way to become Hathaway's math and science teacher, privately, and test her magic talent by the way. If possible, guide her on the path of magic."

    "She has a high status in the Hoffenberg family?" Fernando's first reaction was this. He had no doubts about the union's action plan to win over the nobles.

    "Her father is the youngest and most beloved child of the 'Sword of Truth'. His name is Ludwig. He is also the knight who has placed hope on the second legendary strongman of the Hoffenberg family. Unfortunately, he died unexpectedly at a certain ruins.  , so, 'The Sword of Truth' transferred his feelings for him to his only daughter Hathaway. He loved her very much and did not dislike her lack of knight talent at all." Rigg introduced the general situation in a smooth voice. After all, Fernando  Yesterday I also participated in "teaching" Hathaway.

    Fernando curled his lips: "Why don't you let me go? I think I will be a very good teacher."

    He was just talking casually. He was still very young relative to his rank and he had no intention of teaching students yet.

    "You? Haha." Rigg replied without a smile.

    Douglas also shook his head slightly, as if he also felt that the irritable and arrogant Fernando could not be a good teacher.

    Fernando snorted, expressed strong dissatisfaction with their attitude, and struck: "Sharp is probably the Golden Knight, be careful if his identity is discovered, it will bring serious consequences of the destruction of the entire union, and, 'The Truth  Jian' is a very, very devout believer. Even if he can really tempt Hathaway to embark on the path of magic, I doubt he will support us secretly, but will directly kill Hathaway. He has always been very decisive."

    "There has always been a contradiction between a devout believer and a qualified king. I noticed that the 'Sword of Truth' is becoming more and more like the latter." Rigg said meaningfully, then stood up and walked out the door.

    Fernando was stunned for a moment, and after he passed him, he said firmly: "It's not that stupid"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The top-notch breakfast at the "Grilled Fish Hotel" is a piece of white bread, a lump of butter and a grilled fish. Fernando muttered "Why is it again?" while eating it. For him who has not performed any life extension ceremony,  He said his appetite was as strong as ever.

    After swallowing a few mouthfuls of food, Fernando struggled to concentrate and asked vaguely: "How do you plan to become Hathaway's private math and science teacher? Since her position is so important, I don't think 'Blue Demon' Sharp will  Leave her alone with a stranger and let you guide her down the path of magic."

    He has figured out Sharp's identity, the deputy leader of the "Sword of Truth" Knights, the ninth-level golden knight "Blue Gift". Among magicians, this title has been replaced by "Blue Demon", which shows that he has been  How many mages have been killed!

    "We must first find a chance to see Hathaway again." Douglas swallowed the food gracefully before smiling and said, "I don't know how she gets along with Sharp yet, so I can't make a plan in advance."

    Fernando took a sip of ale and said, "Isn't that reckless"

    At this time, there was a gentle knock on the half-closed door of the small hotel. Then, Hathaway, who had changed into a little princess costume, walked in holding a book with a light blue cover. She still had straight bangs and shawl hair.  Behind her, Sharp, who had a protruding nose, put his hands behind his back and followed with a half-smile.

    With a kick and a glare, Hathaway ran lightly to Douglas and Fernando's "dining table".

    "Same hands and same feet" Fernando was still so tongue-tied.

    This made Hathaway subconsciously slow down her pace, slowly walked to the two of them, spread the book on an empty space on the table, and turned to a page that had been folded long ago.

    She poked at one of the questions with her slender fingers, raised her palm-sized face slightly, and looked steadily at Douglas and Fernando with a pair of indifferent silver-gray eyes, without saying a word.

    "This is a question" Fernando spoke first, and at the same time secretly glanced at Douglas. Look, you don't need to find a way to see Hathaway again, she just came to your door!

    Sharp walked up to Old Green casually, sat on the high chair, ordered a glass of strong wine, and drank while watching the three people's "teaching".

    This morning, Douglas and Fernando tried their best to answer Hathaway's questions. She was no longer limited to the original topic, but continued to explore in depth during the explanation process.Continuing to raise questions that do not exist in the books, of course, this will not trouble Douglas and Fernando.

    When it was almost noon, Hathaway put away her books, papers, quills and ink bottles, bowed her legs seriously, and thanked her in a cool and gentle voice, as if she were facing a real teacher.

    "I will stay here for another month. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. It's rare to see a child who loves mathematics and science so much." Douglas said deliberately before leaving.

    Hathaway nodded slightly, indicating that she understood.

    Sharp laughed and said, "Why don't you just become Hathaway's tutor? I think this will be better than any previous job you had."

    He didn¡¯t wait for Douglas¡¯s answer and turned around and left as if he had just made a joke.

    After watching them go away, Fernando sneered: "Things are easier than expected. She really loves mathematics and science!"

    Douglas looked thoughtfully at the corner where Sharp and Hathaway disappeared, ignoring Fernando's question.

    Then, the two returned to the room to continue their communication and study. Except for lunch and dinner, they never stepped out of the room again.

    It wasn¡¯t until late at night that Fernando said goodbye and left. Douglas rubbed his forehead a little tiredly and looked at the starry sky outside the window. Even if he was an archmage, such high-intensity thinking and communication made him feel like it was too much.

    "Tomorrow looks like it will be sunny again" Douglas whispered as the night was like a curtain and dotted with stars.

    Suddenly, all the stars were covered with a layer of blue color, hazy, like a reflection on the sea. Then, the sound of rushing tide came from the sky, the sea tilted upside down, and the water curtain fell from the sky!

    Douglas reacted very quickly, and a huge translucent palm suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the tide. Then, circles of silver lightning shot up from his body, pouring into the rushing "  "in sea water".

    At the same time, Douglas disappeared.

    Suddenly, the blue water faded away like an illusion, and Sharp¡¯s half-smiling voice came from all directions:

    "He is indeed a magician" (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
