Chapter 73 Celebration
The weather at the end of November is already bone-chillingly cold, and no one would be surprised if a blizzard breaks out right now, even though the snow season in Thunder City is only a month away.
According to Annie, from this time onwards, the number of poor people in the old city will slowly begin to decrease. The peak is the month after the New Year, and it will take until the spring flowers bloom to stop the trend of deaths. And her ice water stall
I have also switched back to the charcoal shop early.
Colin woke up in a warm room with a fireplace. After washing, he put on the new clothes specially prepared by his senior sister yesterday.
A black single-breasted dress that reaches to the knee, lined with soft animal skins, densely woven cotton breeches, and long boots.
At seven o'clock in the morning, several people who had eaten breakfast went out together.
Tessa took Colin to the King's District in a carriage driven by Bob, while Mrs. Muller took three other servants to the Garden District to wait to watch the parade of King Alan IV - on this special day
, Roman Sagan gave everyone a holiday, and only he and the Glen Knight who didn't like the excitement were left in the entire mage tower.
"Sister, why don't we go with Mrs. Muller and the others?" Colin kept twisting his body to adapt to the discomfort of this expensive dress.
"We need to parade with His Majesty on behalf of the teacher. In previous years, I was the only one and there was no one to talk to."
Tessa held Colin's shoulders to prevent him from twisting: "Don't move, this suit is like this. Just bear with it, and you can throw it away after today."
"threw?"
He thought for a while and asked: "Senior sister, why didn't the teacher attend His Majesty's celebration? I see that even His Excellency Orlando and Ms. Michelle were present."
There was an old man in the third car, but Colin didn't see his appearance clearly.
Colin was shocked.
It was the initiative of Aylan IV to celebrate his birthday as a holiday, but it was not that this king was too narcissistic, it was just that he advanced the New Year process by more than a month. After all, the weather was too cold at that time, and everyone was
They have their own things to do.
…
The daytime ceremony was very tiring. After the motorcade parade, the king had to give a speech to the people in the central square of the Canal Zone.
"But who can tell that I'm wearing it for the second time?" Colin was not reluctant to part with it - this dress is simply anti-human, but it's not worth throwing it away. It's not like the King's birthday will be next year.
Fabian Orlando;
Because he was concentrating on magic, he hadn't seen these old friends for a long time. The last time he wanted to see Annie, he failed because he forgot her schedule.
After all the procedures were completed, even Tessa let out a sigh of relief.
However, now that he has risen to prominence, he has not brought any benefits to his friends. I think that when he was at his lowest, Roy was generous to him.
Colin was secretly ashamed.
The streets were crowded with people on both sides, cheering continuously, and people kept throwing flowers and drinks. Colin didn't know if this was specially arranged.
Although teachers and senior sisters care about themselves as much as family members, there are many things that can only be exchanged between friends.
"This is a portrait dress to be worn on important occasions. It cannot be worn a second time." Tessa said while constantly sorting out the folds of clothes that Colin had messed up.
The first carriage in which the king was seated was as big as a house and was pulled by a giant thunder elephant.
Unfortunately, the convoy was moving too fast, and Colin only had time to wave to them before passing by.
"Who's in that car in front of you?"
The Duke of Violet sat in the second car, which was one size smaller, and the driver turned into a rhinoceros.
"The concert is not tiring. It is the perfect enjoyment to repair the tiredness of the day." Tessa closed her eyes slightly, as if she had heard the melodious music.
"Boyce Hawthorne." Tessa sighed slightly when she said the name.
Winifred Mitchell;
After entering the canal zone, the speed of the convoy increased significantly, and the number of people on both sides increased even more. It was already crowded. Colin found that the Duke of Violet and Boyce Hawthorn in front had sat down, and he
Also relax a little - it's not a pleasant experience to be admired like a sculpture.
It took a full four hours for the convoy to return to the entrance of the palace. Colin could no longer stand still, and he admired Aylan IV, who was neither a magician nor a knight, for being able to persist for so long - by the way, His Majesty the King
Still so fat - Colin, who glanced at Sheng from a distance, cursed in his heart.
This 155-year-old magister lives in the palace all year round and rarely appears in public.
…
finally.
"Isn't there a concert tonight?" Colin asked.
The parade started from the entrance of the palace, passed through the Garden District along the King's Avenue, then entered the Mage District from the main road of the Canal District and the Artisan District, and finally returned to the palace. It's not that the king looked down on the old city, but there was nothing there.
There is only one road capable of carrying this huge parade.
Boyce Hawthorn.
It was the other two magisters of the Tulum Kingdom. For the king's celebration, one returned from the Eversong Forest thousands of miles away, and the other walked out of the mage tower where he had been in seclusion for half a year.
The further back, the smaller the size of the convoy becomes, until it finally becomes an ordinary carriage.
"Everyone can see it except you." Tessa didn't bother to explain to him, and kept stopping her junior brother from squirming around.
In the end, Colin could not hear what the king was saying at all, and he habitually began to practice and build various spell models in his mind - as long as he did not meditate, this practice did not consume 1 hour of practice time every day.
He missed the ease and ease he felt when he and Roy were bragging and having fun.
But because of its large appetite, the entire Tulum Kingdom only raised one.
"It's all tiring for me." Colin cursed inwardly.
The parade is very majestic.
However, in Colin's view, the oldest magister in the Kingdom of Tulum was not as weak as he imagined. Although his back was turned to him and he was far away, his behavior was not much different from his teacher's.
According to the teacher, the Magister still cannot escape the law of time. Boyce Hawthorne suffered too many serious injuries when he was young. At this age, he has basically closed his eyes and waited for death.
Roy, Jennifer, and Anne were all crowded in the crowd, happily watching the lively float parade.
Tessa and Colin were in the fourth car, which, like the third car, was pulled by two unicorns.
Colin didn't have time to think too much, because the motorcade had already entered the garden area, and he also saw Mrs. Mueller, Kelly and several other Master Tower servants.
Practicing the construction of spell models can effectively increase the spell casting speed, but because the mental power does not increase, the power of the spell will not increase.
The Thunder Elephant is named because its cry is like thunder, but its personality is relatively docile among all large monsters. After being tamed, it can serve as a strong laborer.
The great-uncle of Alan IV, one of the four magisters in the Kingdom of Tulum, and the eldest one.
"Well, the most tiring time of the year is finally over."
At first, he was afraid of breaking the etiquette and did not dare to say hello. Later, when he saw his senior sister waving, he also waved to Mrs. Muller and others standing on the roadside.
next moment.
Colin saw a big head waving vigorously at him.
However, in Colin's opinion, Romain Sagan, who has always been doing nothing, would rather stay at home and smoke than show up at the celebration. Thanks to the teacher, he is still known as His Majesty's best friend and staunchest supporter.
Tessa smiled and said: "The reason why His Excellency Boyce Hawthorn is present is to tell the world that he is still alive, including the other two Magisters, Duke Violet and others. It is His Majesty who is proving to the world that Tulum
Don’t be afraid of any provocation.”
"What about the teacher?" Colin asked.
Tessa smiled and said: "The teacher is not attending. Your Majesty is proving to the world that Tulum loves peace."
