Felipe's gloomy and pale face suddenly became solemn, in his heart, the "professor" was the most worthy enemy, the opponent who really made him completely lose confidence in his arrogance and self-confidence, an elemental mage who was even deeper than Larry, and probably the first person in their generation of young geniuses to step into the realm of high-level magicians.
He said in a low and solemn tone: "Director Rogerio, has the professor returned to Alinge?"
Rogerio smiled and did not answer directly, but said something else: "Originally, in the journal "Magic" published the day after tomorrow, my paper on electromagnetic interference with souls in necromancy magic will be ranked first, which is an unprecedented honor I have received, but the day before yesterday Mr. Alan Gard, the editor-in-chief of the journal "Magic", made a special trip to the city of 'Heidler' to apologize to me, and my paper can only be ranked second.
Felipe was also a person who could calm down, and did not ask about the news of the "professor", as if his sick face was first puzzled: "Which is your new arcane paper?"
"Yes." Rogerio nodded slightly regretfully, "The storm dominates Your Excellency."
Hearing this name, even the gloomy Felipe showed a little fear, because in addition to his achievements in the arcane and magical fields, this great arcanist was also known for his short temper and perverted personality, and no one dared to explain the omissions in the theory and process of magic construction in front of him, because he would mercilessly ridicule and refute, regardless of the other party's level, the momentum that seemed to be storming was a little unbearable even for the legendary magicians in the Supreme Council.
"Was Your Excellency Ballista's Arcane Research Paper submitted recently? Otherwise, Mr. Alan Garde would not have put Director Rogerio's paper first and told you." Felipe is quite concerned about the latest results in arcane and magical research, which is an era where you will fall behind if you don't learn.
Rogerio poured himself a glass of white water and held it in his hand: "I am also very curious, so I went to the Arlinge Basic Arcane Library to inquire about this paper that has just passed the review, which is about the application of electromagnetic waves, which is very pioneering and shows the possibility of electromagnetic waves being applied in various magical fields.
"Of course, what I want to tell you is not to recommend this paper, but to mention it in His Excellency's Storm Domination paper, which he was inspired by another paper. Out of curiosity and learning, I found the unpublished paper in the library, a small experiment on high-frequency sound waves, according to the instructions cited."
Felipe did not speak, listening carefully and attentively.
"This paper is Lucian Evans X's." Rogerio smiled, "If it's just this name, I wouldn't have any doubts, but he doesn't have an official arcane level, which made me think about it, so I went to find out when he joined the Magic Council, which was a week ago. In other words, Felipe came to Alinge more than three months after you came back."
Felipe frowned slightly: "Director Rogerio, do you want to say that it is that big musician? But maybe it's just a coincidence of the name?"
In the original Wilfrid Territory, the professor and the great musician appeared at the same time, so that the "pale hand" who found out about this matter connected the two like Viscount Karen Erdia, thinking that it was Natasha who asked the professor to protect Lucian on the way, so when he heard this name, he thought that the topic of the conversation was the professor, and Felipe naturally thought of the great musician.
"The broken ring, the seven-element alloy, and the relationship between the great musician and Her Royal Highness Princess Natasha, can we boldly guess that the professor at that time showed Viscount Karen Erdia the Holm crown ring 'Mo'"?" Rogerio, like all gentlemen who like to show off their esotericism, changed the topic again, "Let's look back and think about when the professor first appeared? It was when a certain magic apprentice tested the great musician Mr. Evans. The Silver and White Horn kidnapping plan is sabotaged by the professor, who benefits? It's Mr. Evans, a great musician."
He called Natasha His Highness, not because of her status as Countess Violet, but because of her blood relationship with a certain Excellency.
Felipe thought seriously: "Director Rogerio, do you think their relationship is closer than we had previously guessed?"
"Why not? A musician falls under the temptation of an evil magician and forms a close relationship. If there is no elemental will behind the scenes, how can Lucian Evans become the music advisor to Her Royal Highness Princess Natasha with only an imperfect "Symphony of Destiny" without holding any concerts?" Rogerio clasped his hands, "After that, Mr. Evans quickly won the favor of Her Royal Highness Princess Natasha with his talent, and also deepened his relationship with the Elemental Will and the Royal Magic Academy of Holm. Maybe that's the purpose of the elemental will in itself! and took advantage of our plan!"
Felipe nodded lightly: "It makes sense, but it's a bit strange." He and Rogerio seem to know something secret.
"There is always a solution." Rogerio shook his head without paying much attention and continued, "Her Royal Highness Princess Natasha is said to be going to penance in the monastery for three years, so our great musicians will hurry to Alinge to receive formal magic education to raise their level as soon as possible to cope with future changes."
Felipe touched his chin with his left hand missing a finger: "But it's all Mr. Rogerio's guess, there is no evidence that the Lucian Evans X who published the paper is a great musician."
"Hehe, yes, everything is just speculation, at least that paper does not conflict with Lucian Evans X's strength level and ancient magician inheritance, it can only be said that he has very good arcane talent." Rogerio suddenly laughed, "But don't forget, I met that big musician in Alto, so I went to Douglas School of Magic and confirmed my idea."
Then he said in a definite tone: "He must be a proud student of the 'professor'! From him, we can uncover the true identity of the professor!"
"The professor's proud student? Well, from this point of view, it seems to explain why Lucian Evans was able to write a paper that was quoted by His Excellency the Great Arcanist, because he had only been exposed to the basics of arcane and magic for more than a month." Felipe is not a fool, so it is natural to think of this aspect.
Rogelio knocked on the table with satisfaction: "Another point, that paper discusses the application of high-frequency sound waves, and the professor's signature magic, Felipe, do you remember what principle it was based on?"
Felipe recalled with a serious expression: "According to the description of Viscount Karun Erdia and Amorechuk, it should be a low-frequency sound wave. Although it is not clear why there is such a large vibration effect, it is at least certain that it is a low-frequency sound wave. Hehe, one is the application of high-frequency sound waves, the other is the application of low-frequency sound waves, saying that he is not the professor's proud student, I don't believe it."
"Yesterday I listened to Lucian's lecture in the corner, which was very interesting, and it was an innovative way of lecturing that was completely consistent with his musical transformation. It can be said that this is his personality and characteristics, and perhaps because of this, he is valued by his professors."
Rogerio recalled yesterday's "Introduction to Magical Creatures" class, Lucian's humorous and inspirational lecture made him feel very good, even if the apprentices wailed and practiced, he was equally satisfied, genius needs a solid foundation!
The two of them said a word to each other, and it was basically confirmed that Lucian was a proud student accepted by the "professor" in Alto.
They don't spend as long as Natasha does, and they have been through many things and are very knowledgeable about lies and details. And Natasha still doesn't know the arcane level of the "professor", and can directly regard Lucian as a professor, and in their opinion, the professor who can design an experiment on synthetic urea is definitely not Lucian, who has only been exposed to magic for more than a year.
This is a blind spot in their thinking.
"Find an opportunity to use charming humans to get Lucian to 'Heidler' and use magic to investigate thinking?" Felipe asked Rogerio about the direction of his actions.
Rogerio shook his head: "The professor is probably perfecting his experiment and wants to produce decisive results, if we deal with Lucian rashly, it is likely to make him alert and difficult to achieve his goal. Leave this matter to me, Felipe, you concentrate on your research, if you can produce decisive results before the professor, then we don't need to consider violent methods."
Felipe frowned: "Actually, it's hard for me to understand, if the professor is in Alinge, why don't he publish a paper on synthetic urea first, although it is easy for us to overturn the concept of non-living matter, but such a controversial topic can bring him a lot of arcane points?"
"Maybe he wants to have a decisive result, and then take it slowly step by step, first cause debate, get a lot of arcane points, and finally throw out a conclusion." Rogelio laughed, "Actually, Felipe, why don't you just publish a paper on synthetic urea? If we overthrow it ourselves, it means that we are constantly surpassing ourselves and always walking on the path of arcane truth."
After some magical ritual improvements, Rogerio has tended to indeed synthesize living matter, but there is no conclusive result yet.
Felipe shook his head solemnly: "My pride does not allow me to do this, just like Mr. Rogerio, you did not try to design a similar experiment to complete the decisive result first. Moreover, without anything truly convincing, I am afraid that there are many gentlemen within our pale hands who will angrily reprimand or even punish me. Not every gentleman is as enlightened as Director Rogerio, and you are a very promising member of the Supreme Council in the future."
Rogelio smiled and accepted Felipe's compliment, then said, "Those necromancers, I will let them continue to study until you get a decisive result, yes or no. Lucian, I will also use the ghost to monitor closely, hoping that he will not disappoint me and lead us to the professor. Hehe, what a coincidence, if it weren't for His Excellency the Storm Lord quoting that paper, where would I have seen it? I don't subscribe to the Ordinary Arcanist Monthly."

"Principal Donald, what do you want me for?" Lucian asked suspiciously.
Donald smiled first and said: "It's pretty fun to get along with K, right? How does it feel to have someone with the same name and surname? I have the same name and surname as His Excellency Donald of the Supreme Council, which often makes me not know whether to cry or laugh."
Donald of the Supreme Council is the Nine-Rings Elemental Mage who pioneered spectral analysis to discover new elements and won the Holm Crown Award, one of the two presidents on the surface of the Elemental Will.
After Lucian casually said a few funny words, Donald's expression became serious: "Lucian, a teacher jointly complained that you violated the school rules, taught the apprentices in an inappropriate way, and issued a declaration that seriously violated the school rules, making the apprentices think that it was okay not to listen. After verification, their complaints are true and credible, so I want to punish you and suspend your course for a month, hoping you will reflect on yourself."
