The Lord of Ashes

Chapter 917: Each Side Takes a Step Back

It is not easy to ask for money from a rebellious fifth-level magician.

Fortunately, this holy tower belongs to Dark Fire's own property. No matter how much money is spent, it will eventually be spent on Dark Fire.

Otherwise, this fifth-level magician is not a good person to talk to.

After a long silence, Dark Fire asked: "How much more do you need?"

Sean and Kester looked at each other, handed over the holy tower construction plan they had drawn up before, and Sean said: "Another one million magic coins should be enough for the time being."

"If possible, it would be best to directly inject two million magic coins into the public fund pool of the holy tower."

"In this way, Dean Kester and I will not often trouble you because of the financial affairs of the holy tower." Sean said.

After getting along with Kester and others, Sean knew that Master Dark Fire was not a magician who was enthusiastic about the construction of the holy tower.

Unless there is an extremely important event or decision, the deans usually don't see the tower master.

This tower master never attends the regional Saint Tower Academy war, which takes place every fifty years.

Last time, the Dark Fire Saint Tower Academy achieved a good result of second place in the overall ranking, and the tower master didn't show up to encourage the apprentices of his own academy. He just instructed his deans to give more rewards to the apprentices of that class.

Sean didn't want to bother the tower master every time he needed funds.

It would be good for everyone if all the funds could be in place at once.

After hearing Sean's answer, Dark Fire glanced at him.

After reading the plan in the crystal ball in his hand, Dark Fire did not even have a tone of negotiation, and directly said bluntly: "The expansion plan of the Holy Tower Library will be put on hold for now."

"It's fine as long as the previous operating status can be maintained."

"As for the operating funds of the Holy Tower you need, I will inject another... 100,000... um... 200,000 magic coins." Dark Fire said.

As expected of the tower master, he reduced 90% in one breath.

Sean doubted that if the tower master was not worried that he would be frequently "harassed" by Deans such as Sean and Kester, he would really only invest 100,000 magic coins.

100,000 magic coins is already a huge sum of money for an individual.

But for the construction of the Holy Tower College, this amount of money is really nothing. Before Sean did not get involved, he did not know it. Now that he has personally invested in all aspects of the construction of the Holy Tower College, he knows the difficulties involved.

After hearing the tower master's statement, Dean Kester showed a look of "as expected" on his face. He was used to the tower master's style.

But how could Sean agree to it?

If it had nothing to do with him, it would be fine, but since Sean took on this responsibility, he really wanted to hone himself and accumulate experience for the future.

How could he give up so easily!

If Sean had come here to mess around at first, he would never have accepted the offer from Dark Fire to become the dean of this Saint Tower Academy!

As expected, young people have young tempers.

On the battlefield of the Gumo plane, Dark Fire, who was suppressing three fourth-level gods from other planes, proved his toughness with actual results.

But then, this fifth-level great magician encountered fierce resistance from the younger generation.

"If you don't give me this money, I will resign as the dean of the Saint Tower Academy!" Sean threatened directly.

"Hehe, don't forget that you have signed a magic contract." How could Dark Fire be easily threatened by Sean? He snorted twice.

"The contract will never really restrict both parties. If it really comes to that, I will ask my mentor, or even my master, to help me erase the punishment brought by the backlash of the contract." Sean said resolutely and refused to retreat.

Sean's answer made Dark Fire look at him a few more times.

Indeed, a contract will never be the basis for restricting both parties.

Let alone an ordinary magic contract, even if it is a higher-level law contract, there are gods above level 4 in the star realm who dare to tear it up.

The magician group in the wizard world has always been a representative of the spirit of contract.

But it is rare to meet a magician like Sean who is unreasonable and does not take the tearing of the contract seriously.

As the dean of a holy tower academy, it is really a strange thing to go against his own tower master directly.

Another dean, Kester, obviously also supports Sean's decision, but he is not as decisive as Sean.

"What a young man." Kester looked at Sean and couldn't help thinking.

"As expected of a young man I like, hehehe..."

"One million magic coins are too much, I can only give you 500,000 magic coins." Dark Fire laughed gloomily a few times and then said. He was giving in.

Dark Fire was not stupid, of course he knew that Sean and Kester's actions were indeed for the good of the Holy Tower Academy.

It was just that Dark Fire himself had no intention of building the Holy Tower. The fact that he agreed to invest 500,000 in one go was the result of Sean daring to contradict and disobey Dark Fire.

This fifth-level magician, who had a bad reputation in the surrounding areas, also had an unpredictable code of conduct.

Deans such as Kester were usually respectful and conscientious, and he had never been seen to have extra respect for him.

On the contrary, Sean, who had just become the dean, dared to contradict the tower master as a representative, but aroused the tower master's appreciation?

In short, whether it is the tower master with a rebellious personality or the extremely young dean, they cannot be judged by common sense.

The tower master gave in half a step, and Sean certainly would not be stupid enough to continue to stick to the principle.

Five hundred thousand is five hundred thousand, which is also a considerable amount of money.

It should be impossible to expand the Holy Tower Library.

However, it is barely enough to increase some of the Holy Tower's collection of books and simply upgrade the various equipment of the Holy Tower Academy.

How to spend the five hundred thousand magic coins, Sean decided to let the more experienced dean Kester be responsible.

After several years of getting along, Sean found that Dean Kester's execution ability in specific matters was indeed far better than his own.

This kind of experience brought by time is not something that a young man like Sean can quickly master.

Just as Sean agreed to accept the original intention of Dark Fire's employment, he still has many aspects to learn.

After leaving 500,000 magic coins to Sean and others, the tower master Dark Fire quickly disappeared.

The Dark Fire Holy Tower should also have its own subspace, which belongs to the tower master's private space.

In addition, because the Dark Fire Holy Tower is built on the basis of several continuous black volcanoes nearby, and the sky is covered by volcanic black clouds all year round.

Sean guessed that there is also a private laboratory built by the tower master in the inner wall of the bottomless black volcano.

Except that this place is not suitable for building an academy, other aspects, especially personal practice and experimental research, are full of advantages.

Even Sean himself has considered more than once to build a private laboratory in the depths of the deep and continuous black volcano, dedicated to studying the mysteries of fire element magic.
