Chapter 265 City of Silence (2)

 Chapter 265 City of Silence (Part 2)

Kislev City, this is the second time Rhodes has come here. I have to say that coming to this city again, even though it was only two years ago, feels like a lifetime ago.

I still remember that when I first came to the city of Kislev, the Erengrad rebellion had not yet occurred. At that time, my daughter Denis was discovered to be a witch and was forcibly taken to the Kislev Magic Academy to become a witch apprentice.

He traveled thousands of miles to Kislev to plead guilty to the queen.

This is the second time I have come to Kislev City. Compared with the last time I arrived here, everything seems to be different. People's mental state is even more numb, and life seems to be as simple as survival. Every piece of numbness

The face passed by Rhodes, so that Rhodes doubted whether he came to the same city.

After revealing his identity, the guards took him to Bandaga Palace. The Tsar Avenue was still wide, and it seemed to be wider than before. Rhodes looked at it for a long time and finally found that there were fewer people, not that the road had been widened. Those

The buildings and stores are still there, but there are fewer pedestrians. The sonorous sound of forging iron still comes from the Iron Maiden Blacksmith Shop, and the rich aroma of wine still wafts from the Gem Calendar Brewery, making drunkards salivate.

The ice spring in the Winter Garden is still exuding bursts of cold air. The late winter snow keeps falling, and the white smoke rises from the fence and dissipates in the air. It is a bit beautiful, but also a bit cold.

When they arrived at the palace, the attitude of the guards was obviously much better than when they first met. After all, the famous Chosen One from the Erengrad Rebellion had arrived, and his status was even better than that of ordinary lords.

Rhodes found that the ice wall seemed intact, and the power of magic restored it in a short time. However, the outer wall of the Bandaga Palace was shattered. Traces of being penetrated by a ballista could be seen. From the extent of the scars

If you look at it, you can probably get a glimpse of the scene when Grand Duke Cohen rebelled that day.

"Please come in, Lord Rhodes."

Captain Krem Guard said, and personally brought Rhodes into the palace. The improvement in status was in many aspects. Rhodes remembered that when he first came to Kislev City, he was directly arranged to a hotel. Although

It is a national-level hotel, but it is a hotel after all. But this time it was different. He was directly invited into the palace. Bangada Palace has rooms for accommodation. Rhodes knew this, but he was not a very important guest. Generally,

He will not stay overnight in the palace, and he has undoubtedly become a "very important guest".

The person who received Rhodes in the palace was a Frost Witch. According to her, she was also the great tutor of the Magic Academy, named Irene. Rhodes remembered where he had seen this beauty. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered that this

A frosty witch is always by Katarina's side, serving as her first assistant.

"On the day of the disaster, ghouls broke into the school. Your daughter was very brave. She took the initiative to stand up and used her immature magic to block the ghouls' invasion and protect her classmates. Dennis is indeed a genius. I am in her position.

When she was young, she was still a little apprentice, and could only do chores like carrying water and food. But she can already take on the important task of protecting the people around her."

The female mentor said, always with a faint smile on her face. Her graceful figure was hidden under the beautiful robe, with a pair of towering peaks naturally bulging, and her long waterfall-like hair coiled up to her waist, exuding radiance all over her body.

He had an aristocratic temperament, and his speech and behavior were quite elegant. However, Rhodes always felt that something was wrong. There seemed to be some kind of danger in those eyes, a familiar look.

"It's good that she's okay. You know, as a father, what worries most is his family. Dennis is my only family, and I care about her very much."

Rhodes whispered. Of course, this was actually meant for Catalina. Rhodes knew that the conversation he had with the witch mentor today would be conveyed to Catalina in the next moment. Rhodes thought

Let Catalina know that Dennis is already in her hand as a bargaining chip, so she should rest assured.

A satisfied smile flashed across the Grand Tutor's face. She nodded and chatted with Rhodes about Dennis's performance in the academy and her daily life at the Magic Academy in the past two years.

"Denise is good at everything. She has amazing talent, a pair of beautiful eyes, and a beautiful face. She is just too naughty. She and her two classmates can be said to be the 'stars' in the magic academy. Where are they?

They must be everywhere in the news. This is really a headache... It is precisely because of this that they were locked up in the solitary room that day."

The Grand Master continued. Her blue eyes never left Rhodes.

"Confinement room?"

Rod asked.

"Yes, this is not the first time she has been in solitary confinement. She has made many mistakes, but later the dean of the college and even the Queen herself forgave her. She is very loved and loved by Her Majesty the Queen.

Attention. Judging from the time when she entered school, she is still in the lower grade, but she has already taken classes with her senior classmates. For this reason, she will be bullied by those senior classmates from time to time. But don’t worry, since this incident happened

After that, no one dared to bully her anymore. They all regarded her as their savior."

Erin said with a smile. It can be heard that although the great mentor is strict, he also has a slight preference for Dennis. Generally speaking, genius boys are loved, and this has become a fact. Rhodes couldn't help but recall that he was

It was the first time I saw Dennis casting a spell. To be precise, it was not called spellcasting. It was just an outburst when a person was threatened. But it was that unconscious outburst that made him awaken. Even the castle guards could not

The beastman she dealt with became fragile and vulnerable in front of her, and was frozen into an ice sculpture by the cold... At that time, Dennis was only eight years old.



At night, Rhodes slept in the palace. Although the palace had luxurious furniture and interior decoration, Rhodes could not fall asleep. A cold, deathly air always came from all directions, flooding the entire room.

, the fire in the stove could not dispel the cold air. Therefore, even though the palace was magnificent, Rhodes preferred to live in a tavern and hotel outside the palace. At least there was peace of mind and a sense of popularity there.

Of course, there is another reason why I can't sleep. When I see my daughter tomorrow, how should I explain Caroline to her? I'm going to find a stepmother for her? And it's a very young stepmother, not much older than her.

Years old...Will Dennis accept it? Rhodes is completely unsure about this.

The night is getting dark, the windows are covered with snowflakes, and the whole city is shrouded in a chilling atmosphere, lifeless and hopeless...
