Magic Mech Wars Steel Torrent-Chapter 51 Cooperation and Utilization

"Are you satisfied with this result?"

In a restaurant outside the school at night, Su Lian and Nalin were having a meal here. This was a high-rise restaurant, and the open-air area at the very top could only be enjoyed by spending a large amount of money. Dining here allowed one to overlook most of the city where Polaris Academy was loc

ated.

"Aren't you having a great time?" Nalin retorted.

"I asked you to teach me blood magic. Naturally, I have to bear the troubles brought by your beautiful appearance. Otherwise, if I let you deliberately keep away from me according to my wishes usually, and you still have to patiently endure the harassment from that guy, I would feel a bit guilty." S

u Lian was quite candid about this.

He knew very well that once he reached a cooperation with Nalin, there were certain things that he would inevitably have to face.

Whether Nalin had actively caused the trouble with Conny for him or not, in the end, Conny, that noble playboy who only thought with his lower body, would take the initiative to come looking for trouble.

So, in fact, from the moment he asked her to teach him blood magic, he had already made up his mind to face Conny.

That was why he had asked for Nalin's opinion before taking action today.

If she was willing to act as if he didn't exist and deal with Conny's subsequent harassment on her own, then he would naturally choose to back down.

If she wasn't willing, then he would naturally handle it in a way that completely resolved the issue, just like he did today!

"However, this will also make the low-key campus tone you've maintained disappear. You won't be angry, will you?" Nalin asked with a smile.

"That's okay. As long as no one knows my true strength. Instead, I can just see how Duke Alfred will handle this matter. He will definitely be able to find out my identity. As one of the three great dukes of the kingdom, how will he choose when facing the weakest prince?" Su Lian actually had other

plans in mind.

"What if he chooses a direct confrontation?" Nalin asked.

"Grandpa just needs someone to establish his prestige. He's not the best candidate, but it would be nice if he's willing to come on his own initiative." Su Lian said frankly.

"Not only are you accumulating the highest prestige within your territory, but you're also making preparations to establish your prestige throughout the entire kingdom? You really are comprehensive in your actions." Nalin was a bit surprised.

"Five years ago, when Grandpa and Father saw my talent and ambition, they had already started paving the way for me. Do you still think the things I told you are just jokes?" Su Lian said.

"Alright, then what if Duke Alfred acts as if nothing happened?" Nalin asked again.

"Then Father will naturally seize this opportunity and secretly visit him in the form of an apology. Using the convenience of magic-powered vehicles for transportation as an incentive to draw him into cooperation. At that time, we will have an additional duke as our support. Coupled with someone to

establish our prestige, we will overall enhance our prestige in the kingdom." Su Lian was very clear about the subsequent results.

In such matters, since we've done it, we definitely can't act without meaning!

...

Nalin took a closer look at Su Lian again.

"Alright, I underestimated you again." Nalin admitted frankly.

"So in the future, you should also stop these attempts to test me just to satisfy your curiosity. I can clearly tell you that you can completely regard me as an uncle who is nearly forty years old." Su Lian also said frankly.

"Don't be so serious. Didn't you really want to teach that guy a lesson because of that classmate's death before?" Nalin actually knew about this as well.

Thinking about it carefully, the reason why there was an empty seat in their class was precisely because Abel Marcus had died in the magic disaster.

"Come to think of it, I do feel a bit guilty. If I hadn't wanted to keep a low profile and had taken the initiative to invite him to join our team at that time, he wouldn't have been dragged by Conny to be his servant, and there's a high probability that he wouldn't have died because of them in the

end." Su Lian didn't hide his feelings.

"Although it wasn't your obligation in the first place, today's duel can be considered as making up for it, right?" Nalin smiled.

"The way you comfort others is really special." Su Lian also smiled.

"Was I comforting you? Don't be so full of yourself, you lolicon uncle." Nalin feigned confusion.

Su Lian just smiled. After getting to know her a bit better, he didn't need to care too much about her mischievous quirks.

There was a brief moment of silence.

Nalin noticed that Su Lian seemed to want to say something.

"You should have very strong magical talent. You've only reached the rank of Grand Magician in thirty years. Is it because you've been specializing in other aspects of research, or is it that for long-lived species, the growth of magical power is restricted by physical growth?" Su Lian asked.

It's probably both. Firstly, I'm not of pure blood. And every time after breaking through, we even need to find a safe place to sleep for a while." Nalin explained.

That is to say, the growth of magical strength is indeed somewhat restricted by appearance? Coupled with the limitation of needing to sleep, it actually wastes a lot of Nalin's time.

So what about the research during the spare time...

"What have you been specializing in?" Su Lian asked.

"Probably about ten years of alchemy and potion-making. I haven't really gone to get it certified to see what level I'm at. I just used the books at home or in the library to study and pass the time." Nalin said.

"Then are you interested in going to the Affa Empire with me to further your studies for a year next year? I'll focus on mechanics and magic array studies, and you can continue to strengthen your alchemy and potion-making skills?" Su Lian asked.

"The Affa Empire?" Nalin was puzzled.

Where was the Affa Empire?

If it wasn't for its "empire" status, probably the people of the Avissu Kingdom wouldn't even know about this country.

Why?

Because the Avissu Kingdom was located in the far northwest corner of the main continent of the Saint Continent, while the Affa Empire was in the largest peninsula area in the far southeast corner. Further east was another continent.

Was it really necessary to go so far away to study these things?

...

"Among the four great empires of the Saint Continent, undoubtedly the Orance Empire is the most powerful, and it only occupied the entire Garberry Sea region ten years ago and is currently in a stable truce period.

"But at the same time, they keep a very close eye on people from other countries who come for exchanges and studies. Those who achieve something may even find it difficult to return to their own country for various reasons. And those who haven't achieved anything or are judged to have no talent will

also find it difficult to learn the real things.

"The Kenremi Empire is even simpler. It's too close to us. Once they sense that I've learned something and applied it in the army later, they will immediately regard us as a threat. I'm not so arrogant as to face an empire so soon.

"The Sypo Empire might be a good choice, but they are currently in a fierce battle with the Kostyeno Military Republic in the south, and the Vorkoidlo United Kingdom in their northern front and the Nuxing Military Republic in the western front are in complete chaos. It's too dangerous to go there fo

r exchanges and studies.

"Although the Affa Empire is far away, it only takes three days at full speed when riding a domesticated flying magical beast. Under normal circumstances, five days is completely acceptable."

Su Lian analyzed rationally.

"Is this one of the things you talked about with your grandpa and the others the night before last when I was asleep?" Nalin asked.

"Yes, but they didn't trust you. Inviting you to come along was something I just considered." Su Lian didn't hide it.

"Oh? What's the reason? Don't tell me you just simply want me to accompany you." Nalin was curious.

"First of all, I think blood magic is very useful, but I already know that it's not something that can be easily learned. Even though I'm a werewolf with a bit of vampire bloodline, it's best for you to be by my side for a long time. Conversely, it's the same for the blood combat skills you want to

learn.

"Secondly, I need more comprehensive knowledge, but one person's energy is终究是有限的. Your answer just now is exactly what can be used to complete the things that I currently don't have the energy to specialize in.

"Thirdly, I have other plans besides specializing in studies, and I don't have the experience of staying alone outside for a long time for training and the like. With your powerful blood magic, you may be able to provide great help in many aspects. Uncle Ryan will need to protect Sylvie later, so he

won't go with me."

Su Lian stated his reasons.

"To put it bluntly, a large part of it is that you want a bodyguard or helper, right? What about the issue of trust?

"How can you trust me?

"And how can you be sure that I will rely on you for a long time to maintain my future life? I'm a vampire. I can still use blood magic to have a good life in another place in the future."

Nalin asked and looked seriously into Su Lian's eyes.

Two pairs of eyes with a blue tint met, as if both were trying to see clearly the thoughts deep in the other's eyes.

Was it true or false? How sincere was it?

...

"I won't be so arrogant as to say that I understand you or something like that, but I know that at least you have no reason to harm me. And I can also handle the subsequent study expenses and your identity for you. This is the most basic benefit you can get.

"As for the future..."

"Just think of me as taking a gamble. At worst, you will leave me once you've achieved something in your studies, and all I'll lose is just the tuition fees I advanced for you. I'll just continue to learn what I should learn by myself later, and it won't have any impact, right?"

Su Lian didn't directly explain.

He couldn't very well say that your life experience was very similar to my past life, so he had a feeling of being in the same boat or something like that, which was a rather inexplicable reason, right?

At least this answer was not bad, wasn't it?

"Hmm—" Nalin drew out the sound and looked seriously into Su Lian's eyes.

"Could it be that you've really taken a fancy to me, or to the future me? You're taking a gamble that you can chase me in the future, and then everything I've learned will be yours?" Nalin teased.

This kind of thought seemed to have a bit more romance to it.

"I admit that your current beauty allows you to be so confident about your future.

"But don't you think that for someone who can rule the world, your beauty isn't quite enough for me?

"Miss Beautiful Nalin?"

Su Lian retorted.

"Hmph? Arrogant lolicon uncle. My beauty is obvious to the naked eye. Your arrogance is only on the surface." Nalin said.

Su Lian smiled and wasn't in a hurry to refute, except for the title of lolicon.

"However, I'm really interested in your proposal." Nalin said.

"Then Miss Nalin, I'm honored to invite you to join us. Please take care of me in the future." Su Lian picked up a glass of beverage and gestured.

"As long as it's interesting." Nalin also raised her glass.

The two reached a cooperation once again.

...

Even though both of them knew that the cooperation wasn't limited to the surface benefits.

For example.

Su Lian knew that she wanted to get to know the powerful vampire of the blood clan behind him, that is, his grandmother, even better. And she could even take a gamble that Su Lian really had the ability to stand on the world stage, and she wouldn't lose out.

Nalin also knew that he wanted more opportunities to get in touch with the vampire of the blood clan, that is, his father, August. And he could even use her to avoid or deal with some rather special troubles.

Utilization was a very simple thing.
