"Caruso, just wait for me..." Maren stood up unsteadily and limped away into the distance.
Nimer looked at his back and couldn't help feeling distressed.
After all, he is her biological brother.
[Boss Ka, what’s going on? ]
[Yes, Nimer never said she had a brother]
$[It seems that there is no such family in her memoirs]
[Did Grand Duke Kolia really forcefully buy her away? ]
"Nimer's talent is a burden to the Proudmoore family." Caruso explained: "Even if the Kolya family does not accept Nimer, other families will absorb Nimer."
Caruso's eyes were directed towards Bai, but the commentary knew who he was explaining to.
"Burden?" Bai looked at Caruso puzzledly.
She thought that Caruso was embarrassed to explain directly to Nimer, so he used her to tell Nimer something.
"Well, Nimer and Maren are both very talented people. The Proudmoore family has long been in decline. If they want to rise again, they need a powerful heir." Caruso said: "They can only train one of these two people. Of course, a man is the best choice."
"Then why not let Nimer go through with the marriage?" Bai was puzzled.
For the nobles, doesn't marriage solve many problems
Niemer's body trembled.
Marriage? She had never thought about it.
How old was I when I was sent out
"It's best if the marriage is between two families of equal strength." Caruso said, "The Proudmoore family only has two children, one is Nimer and the other is Maren. What if Nimer goes to the marriage and his heart is not with his family in the future? If the other party is ambitious enough, the Proudmoore family may be annexed."
“Rather than risking being swallowed up, it is better to use Nimer as a bargaining chip, make a one-time deal, gain more benefits, and cultivate Mullen.”
If it weren't for the barrage wanting an explanation, Caruso wouldn't even bother to talk about it.
It can be seen that it was not unfair at all for Nimer to leave Caruso in the original timeline.
"So that's how it is, that's why Nimer was absorbed into your family." Bai suddenly realized.
"That's right." Caruso nodded. "Two years ago, Maren came to see Nimer, and I didn't stop him. He took the two-star legendary staff that his father had given her from Nimer."
"So excessive?" Bai's eyes widened.
"Yes, that's why I say he is a waste." Caruso said in a deep voice: "With his ability, he can get what he deserves by going to the dungeon more often. But he is afraid of death and never dares to go to dangerous places. He wants good equipment and even has his eyes on his own sister. Doesn't he know what Nimer will face if he takes away the staff?"
"Brother, you know..." Nimer's eyes widened: "At the beginning I told you that I lost it accidentally..."
"I put you in solitary confinement for a month to let you reflect on yourself. I didn't ask you to take good care of your things, but to let you reflect on your relationship with your former family!" Caruso glanced at Nimer coldly, "But you still haven't learned your lesson. After this exchange with card makers, you will be put in solitary confinement for three days!"
"Yes..." Nimer lowered his head.
"Are you so sure that Nimer will believe you instead of him?" Bai said playfully.
"Nimer understands me. She is not worth my deceiving." Caruso snorted coldly.
Niemer shuddered.
She regretted it now. Why did she almost believe Maren just now
She knew that Caruso disdained lying, and even more so, he disdained lying to her.
And Maren, he said he was only borrowing it for a month... and he never returned the staff to me.
My brother is very strict, but he always does what he promised me.
It's over. My brother must be angry. Will he think that my heart is still with the Proudmoore family and then abandon me
Nimer looked at Caruso with some fear.
Although Caruso has been very good to her recently, he left without saying goodbye last time, and this time...
Is he testing me, and I haven't passed his test yet
In the past, Nimer was more afraid that she would not know how to survive if she left the Colias' house, but now she was more afraid that Carlosso would not want her.
"She is a person, not a machine." Bai patted Caruso's shoulder: "Don't be too harsh."
"Will you wait until she dies at the hands of the Proudmoore family before you regret it?" Caruso said firmly, "I have the responsibility to nurture her. I will nip in the bud all unfavorable factors for her future."
"The punishment last time wasn't enough, so she made the same mistake again."
"So, you are simply doing this for her own good, wanting her to grow, rather than punishing her because you are angry at seeing her in contact with Maren, right?" Bai said.
"Hmm..." Caruso frowned.
Seeing her contact with Maren, Caruso was indeed very angry, and he was angry that Nimer did not learn his lesson.
"You're not jealous at all, right?" Bai smiled like an aunt.
"I..." Caruso was a little confused: "What is jealousy?"
"You were just angry when you saw them together. You felt that Nimer belonged only to you and you should not have anything to do with that person anymore." Bai smiled.
"Of course Nimer belongs to me." Caruso said firmly: "She really shouldn't have anything to do with that man anymore."
Niemeyer's heart was like a roller coaster.
Caruso's words made Nimer's heart beat wildly.
It was also a punishment for her. According to Caruso's previous statement, it would make Nimer worry that Caruso didn't want her anymore.
Bai's change of words, coupled with Caruso's almost straight-ball attack, made Niemeyer no longer afraid of punishment.
Is this punishment because my brother is jealous
Looking at Nimer's appearance, Bai dared to guarantee that even if Caruso put her in solitary confinement or even beat her with a stick, she would gladly accept it.
This is Bai’s teaching method. She believes that teachers should not only teach students knowledge, but also help them understand some principles and solve problems they encounter.
[Fuck, I'm really good at this, right? ]
[As expected of my sister]
[Just a few words made Nimer excited?]
[Shit, the way Bai laughed just now is similar to me. I feel like I am more immersed in the game.]
Looking at the barrage and Bai, Caruso was a little confused.
Did I do anything wrong, or say anything wrong
"Okay, let's go, we are going to participate in the competition." Bai smiled and touched Caruso and Nimer's head.
She always thought that this couple was very loving, and now it seems that they are indeed very loving!

Soon, Shiro brought the two children to a large classroom where Sora and many students were already waiting, including students from two other academies.
The students of Avalon College were all dressed very formally, with solemn expressions, and they looked like elites at first glance.
The Bear Empire Academy of the Precia Empire is much more relaxed, but each of them has a murderous look on their face, and the clothes they wear all look more suitable for combat, which is in line with their country's teaching policy of a fighting nation.
Although card makers are rear-line logistical professionals, the people of the Presia Empire have warlike blood flowing in their veins, and the probability of their country's card makers appearing on the battlefield has always been the highest.
I remember a war a long time ago, a country had already reached the doorstep of the Presia Empire, and a card-making laboratory was about to be exposed to the enemy's artillery fire.
At that time, a group of card makers had run out of magic power. They took turns to rush out with alchemical equipment and fought desperately with the enemy...
Finally, it was the turn of the card makers from the Mal School of Magic. Not only were the seats scattered, but they were also sitting far away from each other. No two people sat together.
For example, there are only seven people in Caruso's class. There are not many people in the S class in each grade. There are even only four people in the third grade. They are all talented card makers, have their own pride, and don't like to associate with others.
It seems that Avalon College is the most team-oriented.
"Coming?" Sora said to Bai, "A little slow."
"There was a little incident." Bai pointed to the seat and said, "Go ahead."
Caruso nodded and sat down in a random seat, not sitting next to anyone else.
"That's Caruso..."
"The person who can be respected by Her Royal Highness the Princess is actually a card maker?"
=1}～3-=3/7{$2$6&*“I thought they were warriors when I saw them fighting.”
"You are misleading young people. It's a pity to let such a wild boy be a card maker."
Caruso looked over there and saw all the card maker students of Precia waving at him.
Like Theresa, they all admire the strong.
Seeing how polite they were, Caruso smiled and nodded.
Soon, Merlin also walked in from outside.
In this exchange between card makers, she had reasons to win in the end, so she led the team personally, just to get in touch with the card maker named Alita.
[I don’t know why, but I suddenly teared up when I saw this scene]
[Blank and the old woman are on the same stage. I took a screenshot and will ask a big guy to draw one]
[The old woman is either with Sora or Shiro. There are very few group photos of the three of them.]
"First of all, welcome all the card makers to the Mal School of Magic." Sora stepped forward and said, "For this exchange meeting, the cards we are going to make are three stars, limited to one card, and the theme is universal, with no restrictions on professions."
“Simply put, this card needs to be used by more people, so that more people want to put it in their decks.”
“All materials used must be selected only from those provided by the college.”
"You are allowed to blow up your card three times. If you exceed three times, you will be eliminated."
After hearing what Kong said, many people present were shocked.
"What's going on? Versatility? This is too cheap for those with poor basics. They can't make legendary cards, so they restrict us from making legendary cards?"
"Damn it, I already prepared the materials and planned to make a legendary card on the spot."
"Let more people be willing to use it? This is not my research direction. I am researching cards specifically for priests."
"I study warlocks."
"This game is unfair to us!"
Sora looked around at everyone present: "I know that you all have some unique skills."
"But, the profession of card maker used to serve nobles and wealthy people, but now it serves more ordinary people."
"I assume that not everyone present here is a noble, and they all have sufficient backing to allow you to squander materials, right?"
"I know you all want to research, and you all have the ability to research good cards."
"But are legendary materials that easy to obtain? If that's the case, I think we should just see who has more money."
"This card maker competition is a test of your creativity and basic knowledge."
"Otherwise, why hold an exchange meeting for grades below 3? Wouldn't the 5th and 6th grades be able to make better cards?"
"That's what I meant." Merlin said, "The use of cards has entered everyone's life. Adventurers and soldiers all use cards to fight."
"So, I hope everyone will go all out in this competition."
The people at Avalon College thought about it carefully, and suddenly they understood.
This game is very beneficial for them!
Each of them is a card maker, and each of them is also a card making assistant. Anyone can find someone who can complement him or her.
It is equivalent to other schools having one card maker and one assistant, while each group in their school has two card makers together!
"If you have any opinions, you can keep them. I'm going to release the list of materials." Kong said, "The card making time is three days. Each group will have a card making laboratory provided by the school, and will be equipped with a priest to replenish magic power and energy."
"Three days, isn't that a little short?" Merlin frowned.
"It's not a small amount, it's just a third-level card."
Snap, snap.
Bai clapped his hands twice at this time.
Soon, materials were projected onto the huge blackboard.
[Quick, take a picture!]
