Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

However...

Since Alex was able to control the opponent, they decided it was feasible to detain him first.

"That's right, Alex is quite adept in that area. Additionally, he has a good grasp on the punishments for cultists," added Langgeler, the captain of the Razor Squad.

Reine looked at the delicate and handsome Alex somewhat astonished and thought to himself that this young man, seemingly gentle and quiet, was actually an expert in interrogation.

"That would be most ideal, thank you for your efforts, Alex," Reine nodded to Alex.

"Viscount Reine, you are too kind. I am merely doing my modest part. Comparatively, you are the one who has been through the most," Alex bowed slightly to Reine.

Clearly, the fierce battle that Reine and Holdan had just engaged in had thoroughly impressed the three members of the Razor Squad from Norman Province.

Although Earl Habbs' Mansion lacked a large detention facility, there were specifically three detention rooms available.

There were two next to the cellar in the basement of the main building.

After handing over Holdan to the Razor Squad, only Reine and Alexandrina were left in the hallway.

"Lord Reine, what do you think, should we sit in my room, or should I come to yours?" Alexandrina asked Reine, her eyes shifting as if they could draw silk.

However, feeling that her words were too direct, she sweetly added:

"I'd like to ask you about Hammer Skill. Your mastery of the Hammer Skill is unmatched, could you give me some pointers? Look, I also practice Hammer Skill,"

As she spoke, Alexandrina patted the single-handed hammer at her waist.

"This..."

Being fervently invited by such an attractive female Great Knight, it was obviously false to claim that Reine was completely unmoved.

After all, it was quite normal for a colleague to seek guidance on Hammer Skill and to provide some tips.

Only...

This place did not seem quite appropriate.

Reine thought that if he and Alexandrina were deep in conversation and suddenly, Cleya, having successfully been promoted to Great Knight, came knocking, it felt like being caught cheating!

At that moment, Olena stepped forward and said, "Lord Reine, do you think it would be convenient to chat? It's my first time knowing that you are a wizard, perhaps I could..."

Upon saying this, Olena paused, glancing at Alexandrina and then stroking her hair by her ear.

Metal-based wizardry?

Reine's gaze sharpened.

Reine naturally understood the meaning behind this capable woman's words, which must involve the secrets within the Sword Bearers. Therefore, he turned, his face showing an apologetic expression toward Alexandrina:

"Sorry, Alexandrina, it looks like we'll have to discuss Hammer Skill another time."

"Alright, Lord Reine, we can talk about it tomorrow then," Alexandrina said, disappointment showing on her face, but she had overheard Olena's words and knew that metal-based wizardry must hold significant importance for Lord Reine.

"Lord Reine, would you like to sit in my room?" Olena asked Reine, watching Alexandrina leave, then turning to Reine.

But the very next second, she seemed to realize something, her face flushing as she said, "I mean, just a proper sit-down!"

This caused Reine to look at the capable woman with an odd expression, saying, "Lord Olena, either works for me!"

...

"Lord Reine, if I may ask, when did you become a formal wizard? And what is your backing sect?" Olena pondered before speaking.

"I couldn't find any related records in your file, according to the requirements of the Sword Bearers, this information is necessary to be reported when joining,"

"Hmm? Reported when joining? But no one ever asked me!" Reine couldn't help but express his confusion.

He recalled that since he joined the assessment for the Sword Bearers, although he hadn't actively reported that he was a Wizard Apprentice, the main reason was that no one had ever asked him.

That is to say, he wasn't going to take the blame for not disclosing it deliberately.

"Didn't anyone ask you? Then, did you use any wizardry during your assessment?" Olena asked, puzzled.

"No! For the assessment, I just used a secret technique, swung a Warhammer, uh... and then, I passed the assessment,"

"Right, I was also exempted from the retest," Reine explained.

Hearing Reine's earnest explanation, Olena was taken aback!

Then, she recalled why Reine was nicknamed 'Meister Siege Hammer.'

Indeed!

He passed both the assessment and the retest with a single swing of his hammer.

No one even thought to ask Reine!

The person responsible for the assessment was truly negligent!

However... on reconsideration, facing a might G...
