"Okay, I understand, sir, you can rest assured that there is no problem in leaving it to me... What, messed up, how could it be? I have been following you for so long, you can't still trust me... That's it...
Because of this? No, no, no, I will never quarrel with Miss Delphine. I am an authentic gentleman and aristocrat. How could I quarrel with a beautiful lady? Last time? It was just an accident last time. Okay.
Okay, sir, I understand—"
"It's really as unhuman as Darus -" the young wizard said to himself, taking away the communication crystal and holding it up high. The light from the sun on the sea shone on the crystal through the arched window of the tower.
It reflected a dazzling light that was intoxicating. He squinted his eyes slightly - even though it was an extremely ordinary thing, there were also beautiful and dazzling moments, just like this quiet bay, under the ordinary day after day.
, but it contains everything in this world that is most worthy of people's cherishment. When one day people lose it, they will regret it.
Those ordinary and real days will be people's most precious memories. Charles silently looked at the bay shining with sparkling golden light, as if he wanted to remember this moment firmly in his heart.
He turned around, and behind him was a small space in the tower, a desk covered with spell scrolls and star charts, a crystal ball on the corner of the table, and a small toy - a metal piece bound to a breeze.
The disk kept blowing several feathers up and down - behind the desk was a wooden bed and two rows of bookshelves. The bookshelves were filled with parchments and books in a messy manner. From a distance, it looked like a garbage dump, and a
The uncontrolled brush swept up and down the bookshelf, constantly driving spiders or other insects out of the corners. They fell to the ground and then crawled away quickly.
Mordenkainen was still standing in the room. These first apprentices who followed him are now official wizards. The best among them have even touched the threshold of gold. Stepping into gold is the most critical threshold for wizards. Entering gold.
After the realm, the world of wizards will be vast. As long as they don't die unexpectedly, they have a great chance to get involved in the world of elements. Unlike swordsmen who stay outside the strong walls of elements, many wizards spend their entire lives in the world of elements.
He lingered outside the gate of gold and achieved nothing in the end. But among his group of students, many talented people stood out and began to touch this mysterious field one by one.
Ciel could almost smell the aura of magic power in the air. He didn't know what was happening in the "outer sea". The tide of magic power was rising like there was no end. The magic factor permeating the air in Warnd had exceeded the highest level in thousands of years.
At that time, in the past week, many babies born in Fatan Port showed magical talent. It is said that the same is true in Tonigel.
The people of the world are living a busy life without noticing the changes around them, and the nobles are busy fighting for power and gain, and they have also ignored the most unusual changes in Warnd in this year. Only the wizards are the most sensitive to this change - for thousands of years, Warnd
The stars in the summer night have never been so bright as this year. The gods in the sky are telling the mortals something. However, the astrologers' divination of the future has been thrown into confusion due to the horoscope changes caused by the turmoil in the Witch Country.
In the huge fog, the future is hidden under a huge shadow, making everyone who cares to notice all this feel deeply uneasy.
"What are you looking at?" Charles looked at his students with squinted eyes.
"No...it's nothing. Sir." Mordenkainen and the others tried their best to appear serious, but the expressions on their faces that wanted to smile but did not dare to smile truly betrayed their thoughts. Mr. Charles is the chief wizard of the Fir Territory.
Mentor. He is also the right-hand man of the lord. He is kind and never puts on any airs. He also behaves well in front of the nobles. He looks more like he comes from a pure noble family than the lord. This is what most people think of this wizard.
The Lord has a superficial acquaintance, but only a few people know such a secret. Just like the scene where he had a conversation with the Lord before, it was often staged.
Sir Charles was really eaten to death by the lord. He is worthy of being a lord. Even an outstanding and powerful guy like the Grand Master is no match for the lord.
This is probably what these people really think.
"You should have smelled it." Charles was very dissatisfied with his students' dullness.
"Smell something, my lord?"
"The smell of war -" Charles lectured slowly. He pointed at the heads of these idiots one by one and reprimanded: "You idiots, haven't I told you before that wizards need a keen heart, so they can detect
The dangers and changes around you. The wizard's game is the pursuit of the hunter and the prey in a dangerous jungle. Your wisdom determines how far you can go - and the remaining people can only become stepping stones for others.
The kind of guy who takes pride in mastering two spells can only be called a liar and a charlatan."
Several students replied with great embarrassment: "Sir, we have long been accustomed to the smell of war. We have not slept with one eye open that day along the way. If you insist on asking us if we smell the smell of war."
, we should have had this awareness from the moment the lord opened the door of the Cruz people with one sword."
Ciel looked at his students, and after listening to their words, he became silent in a rare moment. Mordenkainen and the others originally thought that they would have to wait for another storm, after spending so many days with the wizard.
When they came down, they had long been accustomed to each other's character, but when Ciel suddenly stopped talking, they felt uneasy: What's going on? Is the mentor really angry? Several people looked at Ciel cautiously,
But he noticed a lonely look on the latter's face, and couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Charles shook his head: "Forget it, I don't understand even if I tell you. If you just go on living like this stupidly, it would not be a kind of happiness. But remember this day well, I'm afraid from now on,
There are no more sparkling waves in the outer sea, only endless storms and showers."
Mordenkainen and the others were a little confused when they heard this. They asked uneasily: "Sir, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? If the lord scolded you, please don't take it to heart -"
Charles almost lost his temper because of these idiots. He waved his hands angrily: "Shut up, get out of here, and go inform Miss Delphine that I want to see her."
"Sir... if you want to find someone to quarrel with... the Lord just said..."
"Shut up and get out!"
…
When, when, when.
A burst of rapid bells suddenly resounded throughout Fatan Port.
Haruze is practicing magic skills with Ms. Medusa in the room. They carefully maintain the magic ripples between the two people's magic triangle area. This is the most common method used by witches to train magic skills and is also used to practice black magic.
Basics. Among the people around the little prince, Lesmeka is one of the few people who knows that he has the talent for black magic. Among the remaining people, one is Brando and the other is Princess Griffin.
, one is Antitina. The other is Miss Roman. Princess Griffin has always been quite worried about her brother's black magic talent. After all, for ordinary people, this talent is a little troublesome at best, but for
For the royal family, it means that it will be a lifelong secret, but Brando persuaded her that the power itself depends on what kind of person it is in the hands of. Rather than blindly suppressing it, it is better to channel it appropriately, especially
The little prince must understand the meaning of the power he possesses so that he can treat his own power correctly.
And Antitina is one of the few trustworthy people around Brando who has complete and systematic experience in learning magic (from the personal teachings of Sifah's chief palace wizard Garlock after the battle of Ampelsel),
And she was also his staff. So the secret was never hidden from her from the beginning. When she was in Tonigel, Antitina actually often acted as the teacher of the little prince. As for Charles, it was also out of the same consideration.
It's just that as a master wizard whose gold is close to the manifestation of elements, Charles is obviously not suitable to teach a beginner like the little prince. Besides, there are many students around him, so this kind of secret is not suitable to be placed in his mage tower.
Among the few people, only Lesmeka was an accident. However, this scheming woman served the little prince day and night. It was too easy to get some secrets from the simple little prince, so she threatened this
After the woman talked about it, Brando simply left the job of teaching the little prince to practice black magic to her. At least this woman has an outstanding mind and is cautious. This job that requires keeping secrets is just right for her, not to mention that at least so far
Brando hasn't found anything unusual about her so far.
When this magic practice reached the third stage, a small fluctuation suddenly appeared, and then the magic ripples between the two disappeared instantly. Haruze blushed a little and apologized quickly: "I'm sorry, I
Lost my mind."
Listening to the rapid ringing of the bell outside, Lesmeka smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, don't worry about it. If you want to go out and have a look, just continue practicing later."
Haruze nodded vigorously. He had long been disturbed by the sound of the bell. Although he was well-behaved and obedient, he was still a child after all. He was very curious and wanted to go out and see what happened.
Ms. Medusa squinted as she watched the little one hurried out the door, then raised her head and glanced outside with her prismatic pupils.
"The changes in the outer sea have already affected the surface world. I don't know how long it will take..." She looked out the window at the panic scene in the entire city and the panicked people on the streets, and murmured to herself. She lowered her head.
, I don’t know when there was a bright gem in my hand. The gem was shining brightly, and it seemed that there was a blue brilliance inside.
In just a moment, Lesmeka closed her palm and put the gem in her hand. The dazzling light seemed to exist in the room for only a moment before returning to darkness.
She sighed quietly.
"The Tip of Ashes, Idenheim, my god Tiamat..."
Haruze ran out of a long corridor. Before he could step out of the door, he first saw an eldest lady holding a skirt and running out of the door from the other direction. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and hurriedly shouted
Said: "Miss Roman!" The eldest businessman seemed to be shocked, and quickly looked around guiltily, then turned around and saw the little one, and immediately raised his eyebrows and said: "Haruze, why did you run out?
Got it!"
"I..." Haruze was at a loss for words. He even forgot to mention that the other party did not address him as His Royal Highness: "Ms. Lesmeka agreed for me to come out——"
For safety reasons, Brando did not arrange the little prince in the baron's castle, but found a place in Port Fatan for him and Lesmeka to live, while living with the witches.
In this way, if anything happens, Babasha, the sugar bowl and the white mist can protect the prince, and there is no need to worry about the worst case scenario.
But before he could finish his words, Roman grabbed his arm and pulled him over. The businesswoman bared her teeth and claws and made a threatening gesture at him. At the same time, she put her fingers to her lips in a silencing gesture: "Shh, no.
Noisy, Baiwu is at work, you know! Don’t disturb other people’s work, Brando said, this is basic courtesy, do you understand?"
Haruze instinctively felt something was wrong, but with his temperament he couldn't say anything was wrong, so he hesitated and didn't know how to answer.
"Luo, Miss Luoman, what happened outside?" he asked hesitantly.
"I don't know, the daughter of the prime minister's family seems to be summoning the bishops in the city. I don't know what she wants to do," Roman said as he dragged the little prince out of the door: "Anyway, let's not stay here for now.
Here we are, do you want to know what happened?"
The little prince nodded passively, although he deeply suspected that even if he didn't nod, the teacher's fiancée would pretend not to notice.
"Okay, I'll take you to see it, but you must remember to say good things about me in front of Brando." Roman quickly added very smartly.
Haruze didn't know how to deal with conversations outside this situation. However, after he was dragged out of the door, he immediately saw some changes in the direction of the port. He quickly shouted: "Miss Roman, look over there.
.”
"Huh?"
Roman was slightly startled. The business lady naturally didn't care about what happened outside. Anyway, even if the sky fell, there would be tall people to hold it up. A short person like her didn't have to worry at all. She was just covered by the white mist.
Forced to be locked up in this place to deal with the relationship between witches, she was already on the verge of collapse, and her head seemed to be bigger than usual. She finally seized the opportunity to run out, so she naturally had to seize the time to breathe the free air.
But after listening to Haruze's exclamation, she raised her head and saw that in the airport of Port Fatan, Valhalla's fleet was actually moving. Silver warships were sailing out to sea and leaving.
berth, sail to the airspace outside the port and start lining up.
"Hey," she said softly, "Is there going to be a war?"
