Chapter 158: Living Together

Unions between close relatives were very common among nobles.

As long as they are not biological siblings from the same father and mother.

Cousins ​​and even cousins ​​often unite to form families.

This situation happened, on the one hand, as the Ferelen family said, for the sake of the purity of the family bloodline.

On the other hand, it is also because it is not so easy for nobles to find a suitable family for marriage.

If they reach the age and cannot find a suitable family to marry into, the young children of these nobles will often be "digested internally".

The wizarding world has always paid more attention to bloodline.

The Knight family is particularly concerned.

The magic family, which has experienced thousands of years of development, does not pay as much attention to the inheritance of bloodline as the knight family, but they also care more about the purity of the direct bloodline.

If she can rely on Thain, it would indeed be a good choice for Selena.

More importantly, Selena also has a favorable impression of Thane whom she met for the first time.

She didn't fall in love with Thain's handsomeness, but Selena felt more secure when she was by Thain's side.

Especially after coming all the way from the Lycian League, it seemed that the only person Selina could rely on was Thane.

…

Thain's residence is very large, not just a single-family dormitory.

There are multiple rooms on each floor, and the interior space is not small.

There's even a basement.

Thain arranged several rooms on the first floor for Selina.

The main second floor is Thain's laboratory, meditation room and other rooms, and the third floor is where he usually lives and sleeps.

So it seems that the only way to make room for Selina is on the first floor.

Selena's arrival has a great impact on Thane's daily life.

After all, no matter how big his apprentice dormitory is, it cannot be compared to the count's castle.

The two of them meet each other without looking up, and they always have something to say when they meet.

It’s hard to treat someone like a complete stranger.

Of course, in addition to the impact on Thane, Owl Xiaoqi was also affected a lot.

Several rooms on the first floor were originally Xiao Qi's activity areas and could also be regarded as his nest.

With Selena's arrival, Xiao Qi of course had to move.

However, Xiao Qi was not some pretentious monster. From beginning to end, it didn't say a word. It just opened its brown pupils and looked at the girl who broke into Thane's life.

Even Selena is very curious about Xiao Qi.

This form seems to be more mysterious, knowledgeable and powerful than expected.

Not only do he know high-ranking official magicians, but he also has an obviously powerful monster as a pet.

"Starting from tomorrow, you can go to the center of the academy to take public classes."

"Although you are an intermediate apprentice, the variety of knowledge in Holy Tower Academy is definitely beyond your imagination."

"Even some entry-level courses can be of great benefit to you as a new apprentice who has just entered the Holy Tower." During dinner, Thain gave Selina some advice.

"Well, cousin!" Selena nodded heavily and replied.

This dinner was prepared by Selina. It was hard to tell that this aristocratic girl who had not been away from home for many years actually had good cooking skills.

At least the sweetness of the fruit soup and the crispness of the toast satisfied Thain.

This should be one of the few conveniences Selina can bring to Thane after moving into his apprentice dormitory.

Selena is very obedient and behaves well-behaved and sensible, which is something that Thain can recognize.

If it was a more unruly and willful woman, even if the other person was his cousin, Thain would kick her out.

The next day, early morning.

When Thain walked downstairs, several exquisite breakfasts were already placed on the table.

Selina didn't know where she went, but there was a piece of white paper next to her breakfast.

Thain walked over and picked up the paper, which was the handwriting left by Selina.

The paper stated that she had already eaten and now planned to visit the teaching building and library and get familiar with the environment of the Holy Tower.

He took a sip of the juice left by Selena. It was the taste that Sean liked, and ice cubes were added to it.

"Yes, he is a guy who can make people worry-free." Thain nodded and said.

After finishing the juice and eating a few bites of breakfast, Thain immediately returned to the laboratory on the second floor.

More than five years of study experience at Jizhiyuan Holy Tower has already allowed Thain to complete basic courses in various departments.

Even advanced courses that require additional payment, Thain has not heard of many courses over the years.

Now, he does not need to go to the teaching building to learn knowledge for the time being.

"The advanced transformation of the Eye of the Sun magic was almost successful last time."

"I must completely perfect this magic this time to achieve the effect I expected!" Thain walked into the laboratory with high spirits.

In recent years, Thain has only been so excited and excited when he was exploring the truth and the mysteries of elements.

Speaking of which, Thain does need someone of the opposite sex to adjust his life.

It seems like he hasn't touched a woman in several years?

…

The cohabitation life of Thain and his cousin Selena is not as complicated as some people imagine.

This is a very peaceful life, and Thain and Selina seem to be two nearly parallel lines.

Except during breakfast and dinner, when the brother and sister might meet briefly and exchange a few words.

Most of the other times, they don't even see each other's face.

It was mainly because of Sean, who either stayed in the lab all day or went to the library to look up materials.

He was always elusive.

As the magic of the Eye of the Sun was close to perfection, Sean went to the library to look up materials more frequently.

Sometimes he would even go out in the middle of the night, waking up Selina, who lived on the first floor and had a light sleep.

Selina didn't care about it. She went to various public classes to learn knowledge as usual every day, and insisted on preparing breakfast and dinner for Sean.

Maybe the best way to keep a man's heart is to keep his stomach?

Because Selina prepared food for Sean every day and took on the cleaning work at home, Sean gradually talked more about this cousin who was originally unfamiliar to him.

With Sean's knowledge as a quasi-magician, he was enough to give Selina some advice on her homework and magic learning.

And it was during a casual chat at a dinner that Sean, the irresponsible cousin, realized belatedly that the magic department that Selina had originally studied was mainly fire and light.

It seems to be mainly light magic, supplemented by fire magic.

Selena's situation surprised Sean.

Considering his recent experimental topic, Sean said to Selena at the dinner table: "Do you have an important public course tomorrow?"

"If not, can you come to the laboratory to help me?"

"It's just a simple experimental data record. I am also studying fire magic, which should be of great benefit and inspiration to you." Sean said.

Sean's inquiry made Selena's face show a trace of surprise and joy. She answered without hesitation: "Okay, it happens that I don't have a public course to learn tomorrow."

Selena has been curious about Sean's laboratory for a long time since she moved here.

She even cleaned Sean's room, but she had never been to Sean's laboratories on the second floor.

Sean nodded to his cousin's answer and said: "I won't let you help for nothing. I will pay you."
