Chapter 74: The Shocked Capital, The Hereditary Earl

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

The exchange match between the two imperial academies had come to an end.

The news of Joelson turning the entire match around with his own strength spread throughout the capital the next day.

The capital was shaken.

16 years old, dual-element sixth-rank.

Shocking results.

Joelson had also become the youngest sixth-rank magic shooter in the history of the Alcott Empire.

In the space of the Dragon God’s Ranch.

Joelson was testing his true strength.

A blazing red combat aura burst out from his hand, leaving a deep ditch on the ground.

At the edge of the ditch, the soil had a slight burn mark.

Fire attribute combat aura.

It was also rank 6!

Thinking back to the crazy act of taking two bottles of dragon blood potion at the same time, Joelson felt his heart palpitate.

The pain of taking the dragon blood potion the second time was magnified compared to the first time.

It was as if there were countless red-hot steel knives scratching every inch of his skin and bones.

He almost could not hold on any longer.

When he woke up, his spiritual power had successfully broken through to level 6, and so was his knight realm.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to avoid Don Quixote’s pursuit so easily on the duel stage.

Other than these obvious benefits, there were many other changes in his strength that Joelson had not expected.

After taking the potion, a trace of ancient dragon bloodline appeared in Joelson’s bloodline.

The benefits were obvious.

Strength, speed.

Joelson guessed that although he was only a tier 6 knight right now, putting aside his strength, in terms of strength and speed, he might not be inferior to a tier 7 or tier 8 knight.

This was also the reason why he broke the record of the Mage Tower.

Most of the power that he used was the power of a knight.

If it were not for the fact that he had not learned any advanced knight fighting techniques.

He could even take off his mage robe and fight with Don Quixote with his bare hands.

The level-6 dragon-shaped spell that he summoned also had a hint of true dragon’s might, more than ordinary mages.

Dragon’s might!

With this, the power of his dragon-shaped spell instantly doubled.

Three days had passed since the exchange match, and the outside world’s praise for Joelson had reached a peak.

In these three days, countless nobles had almost crushed the doors of the Tulip Academy.

Now, the magic talent that Joelson displayed had completely surpassed that of the young Harriet Terrence.

He would definitely become a saint-level mage in the future!

Therefore, they were all eager to build a good relationship with the future saint-level mage, Joelson, as soon as possible.

If they knew that Joelson was also a sixth-tier knight, they might be so scared that they would all go crazy.

This time, the gifts sent by the nobles were enough for Joelson to upgrade three large-scale dragon nests, more than 300,000 gold coins!

However, all of them were rejected by him.

He left all the trivial matters to Leas to handle while he hid in the magic laboratory below and entered the space of the Dragon God Ranch for three days.

Now, he finally could not hide anymore. Today, Charles III would hold a grand farewell dinner for the Knights of the Yheng Empire.

At the same time, it was also a celebration dinner for him.

The Tulip Academy had won the exchange competition and produced a super genius like Joelson. It was said that his precious daughter had feelings for him.

Charlize III’s mouth was almost crooked from laughing.

It had only been a few weeks since Joelson had been conferred the title of Life Earl. Charles III could not wait to remove the word “Life” from the title.

It would be changed to a hereditary title.

This meant that the descendants of Joelson Edward would always have the title of Earl.

This was almost the most important title that Charles III had conferred in the past ten years.

Someone could not help but sigh and say, “If Joelson Edward really becomes a saint-level mage in the future and marries Princess Dayshannon, the hereditary earl will probably rise to at least a hereditary marquis, or even a hereditary duke.”

Because Harriet was a duke, and also a hereditary duke.

Unfortunately, Harriet did not have any children.

Of course, if such a day really came, it also meant that the next five hundred years of the Alcott Empire would be guarded by the Edward family.

Joelson slowly walked out of the basement and saw a scene that surprised him very much.

The smaller Leas sat in the living room, surrounded by nearly twenty women.

They were all dressed like maids.

These young and beautiful noble maids seemed to be talking about something.

Leas’s face was red and a little reserved as if she was the guest here, but the center of everyone’s conversation could not get away from her.

It seemed that they were the personal maids of the other students in the academy. They had all learned from Morton’s method and asked them to come over to Leas’ side to curry favor with her.

When Joelson appeared in the living room, Leas saw him at a glance.

Her eyes were filled with joy. She stood up immediately and shouted happily, “Young Master!”

The other maids also stood up immediately and respectfully asked Joelson, “Young Master Joelson.”

Did they steal a glance at Joelson? Their eyes were filled with curiosity, worship, respect, and even admiration.

Leas’ Luck was really good.

“Yes.”

Joelson nodded and replied faintly.

The maids also took their leave.

When they walked out of Joelson’s residence, they immediately sighed with envy.

“This is the first time I’ve seen Young Master Joelson with my own eyes. He’s really more handsome and younger than the rumors say!”

“It would be great if I could be Young Master Joelson’s maid.”

“Sister Leas, I’m So Jealous!”

Joelson sat down on the velvet sofa. Leas quickly poured him a glass of water.

Joelson patted the seat beside his hand and signalled Leas to sit down.

Leas’s face was red. She carefully sat down beside Joelson and quietly moved to the side.

“It’s good to have them accompany you, but…” Joelson said hesitantly, “Don’t trust others too easily.”

Leas was an elf who came out of nature and had only been in contact with human society for a few months.

He was afraid that Leas was too naive and would be deceived by those shrewd maids.

Leas hurriedly stood up and stammered, “Next time, I’ll never… never let them come again.”

Leas thought that Joelson was blaming her.

Joelson smiled and said gently, “I didn’t mean that.”

Looking at Joelson’s clear eyes, Joelson felt a little relieved.

“Knights can also go out with them.”

Joelson flipped his hand and took out a black cloth bag full of gold coins. “Buy whatever you like.”

Leas’ eyes were filled with great surprise. She said in disbelief, “I… Can I go out?!”

“Of course!”

Joelson nodded with a smile.
