What's happening here?Why is the second prince by Victor's side?

Naturally, she didn't see the picture at the beginning, and she was a little puzzled.

Could it be that the second prince is planning to win over Victor now?

The second prince smiled at Victor and gestured.

"I'm sorry for this situation, Viscount Victor... Sorry, it should be the earl now."

"I apologize for Cousin Jess' reckless behavior."

He bowed slightly, and after apologizing, he left in a hurry regardless of whether Victor would respond to him or not.

It was as if he had simply come to save Victor from a siege, to help him show off in front of the guests.

Didn't even stay to say anything.

Seeing the second prince's departure, the guests also gradually dispersed, wondering what to do.

Many young nobles looked at Victor with something wrong in their eyes.

They really wanted to come up to say hello to Victor, but no one dared to come up to say hello to Jess when they thought of Victor's attitude towards Jess before.

But correspondingly, Liya became the target of many people's chats.

"Miss Liya."

Hearing the source of the voice, Liya turned her head and saw several nobles walking towards her.

She smirked habitually.

"I'm Hansel, and these two are Mr. Tick and Mrs. Anne."

Liya responded with a kind smile and shook hands with one.

Liya handles these nobles with ease.

While communicating, she looked at Victor with boredom.

I saw Victor sitting in the corner expressionlessly, but no one dared to chat with him, and I felt a little envious.

It's nice to just put on a poker face and not be bothered.

Ugh.

Thinking of this, Liya sighed heavily, quickly adjusted her mood, and then squeezed out a smile to chat with the nobles.

Kefla leaned against Erica, amazed.

"I didn't expect that Victor would hook up with the royal family."

"Teacher of Her Royal Highness, I heard that the princess is also very talented. I don't know if it is true."

As she was talking, Kefla saw Gwen on the other side, and looked at her blushing, she looked like she had drunk too much, so she couldn't help but walked over and grabbed the wine glass in Gwen's hand .

"Okay, okay, stop drinking, little Gwen."

"No one will take care of you if you drink too much."

Only Erica stayed where she was, staring blankly at Victor in the corner.

On the side was Her Royal Highness, she didn't seem to dislike Victor, and she was still smiling when chatting with him.

Where is Victor?He's still the same poker face, nothing has changed.

As if thinking of something, she came back to her senses and walked towards Victor.

The Duke had been standing aside. Seeing Erica's movements, he couldn't help but sighed, shook his head, and went to chat with the nobles around him.

"Mr. Victor, thank you very much..."

"That...professor."

While Her Royal Highness was chatting with Victor, an inappropriate voice came in.

Both the princess and Victor followed the voice.

Erica clenched her fists tightly on her chest, her face flushed slightly rosy.

She seemed to have made a decision, lowered her head, and said boldly:

"I want to be stronger too!"

"I want to, too, I worship you as my teacher!"

Chapter 60 I Won't Let You Snatch Him

The gazes of Victor and Aurelian looked at Erica at the same time.

The atmosphere gradually fell silent.

Erica was a little shy being stared at by both of them, but her gaze remained firm.

Victor was silent for a while, then said:

"Erica, you were originally my student."

"That was not what I meant!"

Erica said anxiously.

"I can learn the easy-to-understand knowledge taught in the college sooner or later."

This is not Erika's bragging. In the entire Royal Academy, even if it is a student in a higher grade than Erica, most of them are only first-tier mages, and there are very few second-tier mages.

Erica has already reached the second level after entering school for only one year.

The college can't teach her anything anymore, otherwise Erica wouldn't have to ask Victor for extra lessons every night after class.

Her talent is obvious to all.

But no matter how talented she was, after going through these life-and-death situations, she also understood a very important truth.

No matter how much simulation training there is, no matter how much knowledge there is, no matter how much mana can be controlled.

The academic mages are also destined to be inferior to those experienced mages.

Thinking of the situation where she almost died several times in a row, Erica would feel a wave of fear.

She is still too weak.

Victor stood up and looked down into her eyes.

As if frightened by Victor's indifferent demeanor, Erica took half a step back slightly, but still met Victor's eyes without timidity.

She wants to be stronger!

but……

"I won't accept you as a disciple."

Victor rejects Erica's request.

Erica was taken aback by his quick decision, and felt a little cold in her heart.

For some reason, a sense of grievance welled up in my heart.

But she didn't show it, even though there were a few tears in the corner of her eyes, she still refused to admit defeat at all, raised her head, and looked at Victor stubbornly.

"why."

Even if she was rejected, Erica wanted a reason.

At the very least, she also needs to understand her own shortcomings.

Victor said lightly.

"Always remember that you are the only heir to the Duke..."

"Then I'll go and convince him!"

There was unquestionable confidence in Erica's tone.

"I will be able to convince my father, I promise."

Victor narrowed his eyes and let out a chuckle from his snort.

"Is it?"

"Then, let's talk about the next thing."

A raging flame suddenly ignited on his body, as if half of the night sky was ignited.

He turned around, looked at Her Royal Highness who was in a daze, and bowed slightly.

"I still have something to do, so I will leave early."

"Have fun, Your Royal Highness."

As he spoke, his body gradually solidified, turning into a statue made of ashes.

The strong wind was like a sharp blade, peeling off his body piece by piece until it completely dissipated in the air and went away with the wind.

He just carried the ashes and dissipated in the banquet hall.

Erica stood there slightly stunned.

Victor, did you agree?

She doesn't know, but at least she has a purpose.

Convince your father!

But at this moment, Her Royal Highness's delicate voice sounded:

"I know you. You are Erica, Erica du Chloe."

Erica came back to her senses, looked at the princess, and then remembered that she hadn't said hello to Her Royal Highness yet.

Among noble etiquette, this is undoubtedly somewhat offensive.

She was just about to bow when she saw the princess staring at her.

It doesn't seem very friendly to her.

"People say that you are the youngest genius in the capital."
