Eye The Storm #4

‘Quattro,’ was a word which meant the number ‘4’ and also symbolized the four magic towers. It was a division made up of the tower master candidates!

Theodore was now the head of a unit which would be the next generation of leaders of the kingdom, except for the king. Theodore rose from his seat and accepted the appointment. “I will do my best, despite still being immature.”

“I look forward to your work in the future, Captain Theodore,” Kurt III said while nodding.

Then Theodore sat down again. However, there were many differences from when he rose from that seat and when he sat down.

Although he hadn’t created a ‘Sorcery’ yet, Theodore’s magic abilities, cumulative accomplishments, and attainment of the 7th Circle were clearly too much for him to stay as a Prime. Theodore was already qualified to sit at the same table as a tower master.

For him to become the head of ‘Quattro’ was a suitable justification.

“It is decided,” Kurt III said. Then after some light applause, he calmed down the crowd and declared, “From now on, we will raise the authority of Prime Theodore to the same level as the other tower masters. He will be guaranteed the right to participate in important meetings, and he can spend a portion of the budget allocated to the magic towers. He will also have free entry to the Zero Library. Are there any objections?”

““…….””

“Tower Master Veronica.”

After the crowd’s silent affirmation, Kurt turned to the still silent Veronica, who glared at him.

However, Kurt was accustomed to this and didn’t shrink back as he asked, “It has already been implicitly agreed, but do you accept Prime Theodore as the next Red Tower Master and agree with this decision? If you disagree, we can think about other ways.”

“No.” Regardless of whether it was a positive or negative acknowledgment, Veronica leaned back in her chair. Then she looked strangely at the box in Theodore’s hands and nodded. “I’m in favor of it. He is qualified and deserving of that type of treatment.

“Okay, it is a unanimous decision.” An expression of satisfaction filled Kurt’s face, then he looked back. “Chamberlain, send them in.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.” The chamberlain bowed and opened a small door in the corner. It was designed so the door could only be opened from the inside. This meant the door wouldn’t have been opened if Theodore or the tower masters had objected to the position.

Then two people walked in through the side door. One was a man with brown hair and dressed in white robes, while the other person was a girl with blonde hair and dressed in yellow robes.

They were from the white and yellow towers.

Surprisingly, the patterns on their robes indicated that they were a Prime and a Superior. The male Prime seemed to be in his early 30s, while the girl, who looked the same age as Sylvia, was surprisingly already a Superior.

“I will introduce you to your colleagues, Captain Theodore.”

As Theodore expected, Kurt III introduced the two people as members of ‘Quattro.’ That meant…

“This is the tower master candidate for the White Tower, Prime William. This lady is the Yellow Tower candidate, Superior Para.”

‘I knew it.’ Theodore looked at the two people in turn.

Since there were people from the White Tower and Yellow Tower, that meant there was one tower left.

Unsurprisingly, Kurt pointed to Sylvia next. “As you know well, Blue Tower Master Blundell’s disciple, Superior Sylvia, was named as the next tower master. Unless she refuses, the four of you will work together as part of Quattro.”
