Barthemelo.
A name with a history almost equivalent to the Gregorian calendar, an extremely profound name.
A person whose name alone is enough to overwhelm most magicians of so-called noble family.
This family has too many halos.
The First Family of the Clock Tower, the headquarters of the Magic Association;
The leader of the three great noble families, the core of the largest faction of aristocracy, the only way for the other two noble families to fight against it is to unite;
He can stand on equal footing with the legendary first magician;
The family of the Lord of Law and Politics holds the greatest authority;
An existence that has dominated the Clock Tower for more than a thousand years can crush the lower-ranked families of the Twelve Lords without paying too much of a price.
As long as you are active in the world of magicians, it is difficult to bypass this family, even the self-enclosed Atlas Academy and the mysterious "Wandering Sea" are difficult exceptions.
Such a family, which has lasted for nearly two thousand years and is still standing strong and maintaining its glory, naturally has its own unique features.
In addition to the unimaginable amount of resources at his disposal, he is also extremely strict in the training of his offspring.
Bartmero is a typical old noble family, proud of their family name and bloodline, and will not allow themselves to do anything that would tarnish their family's history. Therefore, most of the members of Bartmero are pursuing perfection, and each generation of the family head is a typical perfectionist.
If you don't have enough skills, you are not allowed to leave the family, and you can't appear in front of others unless you become a formal magician. Once you enter the Magic Association, you must have the ability to lead a department.
The current heir to the family head, Loreleija, is no exception.
As soon as this slender-looking girl appeared in London, she shocked the entire clock tower.
Perfect.
Perfection without any shortcomings.
A powerful, noble, and overwhelming magic circuit.
Although he has no special abilities, he has extremely high standards in all aspects and can achieve excellent results no matter what the situation.
It seems like the crystallization of Barthelmero's history, making everyone look up to him with his inherent nobility and irreparable gap.
Of course, if you really want to find faults, there are some. This girl is very cold in humanity and acts too coldly. But this is Bartmero's usual style, and the magicians are already used to it.
Lorelaia herself didn't think it was a big deal, as she had been educated like this since she was a child. She was also given a title because of this - Her Majesty the Queen.
A person's performance is more worthy of attention than his personality.
Compared with outstanding talents, the so-called parents and relatives are not worth mentioning at all.
Noble people have a higher right to rule. They are the best and the most noble, so they should lead and control everything.
There simply would not be a magician who could stand on equal footing with him, including the other eleven lord families, the other two noble families, and El-Melloi, an ally who had always been on good terms with Barthelmero.
Loreleija firmly believed in this and implemented her own ideas.
Whether he was handling the work of the Law and Politics Department or forming his own unit, the E-Brigade, or even when he was caring for his subordinates, he was always condescending.
Until one night, she received a message and went to a second-rate family to mediate the conflict between this family and El-Melloi.
In Lorelaia's eyes, this was a task that couldn't be simpler.
How many people would dare to refuse if I personally came forward? Moreover, El-Melloi had been seriously injured after three years of civil strife.
At worst, some resources can be allocated to El-Melloi. After all, the current head of the family, Kenneth, is an outstanding magician who is bound to reach the top of the "crown throne" and an important figure who can promote the advancement of magic.
However, the reality was far beyond her expectations.
The assassins sent by El-Melloi did not take him seriously at all and planned to kill the target in front of him.
This made Lorelaia angry. Since her debut, she had never been looked down upon like this before. I want to see what you are capable of. How dare you look down upon me and Barthelmero!
The result was once again beyond the girl's expectations.
This killer was indeed very capable and had extremely strong fighting power, so strong that even she had to take him seriously. This was a situation she had never encountered before.
Who is she? She is destined to become the pinnacle of contemporary magicians. Even if she has not inherited the origin mark of Barthelmero and is not strong enough to compete with some old monsters, how can a killer do that
But the fact is that he can! Not only can the invisible guy fight with him, he also has a powerful treasure that can kill him.
For the first time, the first time since arriving in London, she felt a fatal threat.
It was from this moment that the situation began to get out of control.
The person whom he had invited to mediate with great effort suddenly changed his previous humble attitude and showed his vicious side. Not only did he force him into a desperate situation, he also claimed that he would kill him and the killer.
The killer was even more excessive. He had a way to break the situation, but he didn't use it. He also said that he didn't trust himself, and he didn't trust Barthelmero who was in charge of the legal department.
She, Barthelmero Loreleija, the first heir of the Barthelmero family, had never been treated like this before.
The emotions that had been suppressed since childhood grew wildly, almost breaking through the defense line built by reason. But in the end, she calmed down.
The situation was stronger than she was. Although she had a trick, the success rate was not high. So she made an amazing decision. Not only did she compromise with the killer, but she also let him knock her unconscious. This was the first time she made such a choice.
This decision was undoubtedly correct. The killer brought himself out of danger and destroyed the enemy.
From the moment she woke up from her coma, Lorelaia had her eyes on this mysterious killer. She had never been so interested in a person before.
There are not many people who dare to question Bartomero, and even fewer who dare to speak out to his face and knock him out, not to mention his strength - well, his weird personality.
Although he has such powerful strength, he would fuss over trivial matters.
He seems greedy for money, but he is loyal to his duties when faced with the olive branch extended to him.
I really don't understand it at all.
The less I understand, the more I want to figure it out.
She is the queen who is destined to rule the Magic Association, and she cannot allow such an unstable factor to remain at large.
She will definitely make use of this mysterious killer for her own benefit. This is the queen's duty.
She began to gather intelligence on him, started negotiating with his faction of El-Melloi, and managed to obtain the assassin's basic information.
Matou Shinji, male, 11 years old, address...
My first reaction was that he was young, younger than myself.
What followed was greater curiosity.
What kind of person would he be
What kind of life do you usually lead
Where does such powerful strength come from
What will his expression be when we meet again
What should I say
Then she met him.
