Having become so much stronger in just one night, Chai Anping was in a very good mood all day long. He also bought some gadgets that Lux might like along the way and planned to take them back to her.
They will be able to return to Xiongdu in one more day, which means the mission is truly successfully concluded.
Of course, he would have to be summoned to the palace afterwards because of Fiddlesticks' appearance, but he was the only one in the scene at that time, and no matter what he said, no one could prove that he was lying.
The two knives obtained in the illusion still require more practice in reality. After all, there are too many factors that affect it in reality. If you want to complete such an attack, you must carefully consider the weight of the black fire.
There are many people in the team, and there is Fiona, so it is not a suitable place for practice.
Moreover, my first master of swordsmanship deserves a nicer name anyway. Chai Anping, a bad namer, spent half the time sitting in front of the carriage mumbling about a suitable name.
"My Lord Count!"
Finn came close on a big horse.
"Hmm? What's the matter?"
Chai Anping raised his eyes, but in his head he was still debating whether it was better to "Yan Hui" or "Double Dragon Flash".
"I estimate that I will be able to reach the capital in one day. After the capital has settled down, I will have to visit the Count again to thank him!"
Chai Anping raised his hand when he heard this and couldn't help but look at Finn twice.
In fact, there is an invisible consideration in Demacia's invitation to these mages - mages with no fixed abodes are given priority!
Finn is the key figure on this list. Demacia not only hopes that these mages will bring knowledge, but actually hopes that they can stay in Demacia for the rest of their lives and continue to shine for the emerging group of mages.
Finn has a reserve of magical knowledge that is unmatched by others, has outstanding abilities, and has a high emotional intelligence.
According to the investigation by secret agents, Master Fenn also has lofty ambitions, and believes that the opportunity to become a mentor for a country's mage group is a temptation he cannot ignore.
Maybe he is so eager to get close to him now because he is starting to pave the way for his own connections.
After several days of traveling, Chai Anping had a pretty good grasp of this mage's character, so he naturally had no ill feelings in his heart.
Especially after a period of banquets among nobles, he could not understand this kind of behavior.
Besides, having such a person to guide the emerging group of mages in the country might not necessarily be a bad thing.
It's a pity that Winifred, another key figure on the list, died at the hands of Fiddlesticks. Otherwise, the old man's status would be higher than Finn's. But fortunately, his student is still alive... which is better than nothing.
Finn asked him for some advice on what to pay attention to when dealing with Demacia nobles, but in fact he was just looking for something to talk about.
Chai Anping himself only knew a few things, maybe Finn knew more than him.
However, if you want to get acquainted with others, you have to start like this, especially when your status is lower than others and you may have requests from others.
After Finn came over to increase his favorability, the rest of the people took turns coming over to get close to him, especially Winifred's students... Why did he still seem to have an illusion of admiration in his eyes?
Chai Anping was bored, so he learned a lot about the local customs and customs of the inland with them. They all came from different countries, big or small, and had different identities. It was worth mentioning that the one named Virginia
She is a princess from a small country whose name Chai Anping has never heard of. Of course, this is not her real name. She always considers herself an ordinary mage when she travels.
If she hadn't mentioned it herself, the others wouldn't have known she was a princess.
Chai Anping silently turned around and went to find Fiona to discuss whether to raise the standard of greeting her. Although she was just a princess from a small country, Demacia had always paid attention to reciprocal pomp and circumstance. The key was whether she was a "princess" or not.
"..."
Sword Girl also looked a little speechless: "Just report the situation, it's none of our business anyway..."
Her words hit the mark, and Chai Anping suddenly became enlightened after hearing this, and continued to happily go back and think about what his two swords should be called.
…
The five mages in the escort team experienced this catastrophe and actually had indescribable feelings. This is why Virginia told them her true identity.
They have reached a consensus on helping each other during this trip to the capital of Demacia, and the experience of escaping together from Fiddlesticks will become an indelible memory in their lives.
Within their small group, Finn directly stated his goal - he hoped to join Demacia's new mage authority.
This is an adventurous decision.
Gerald came to him for help on the last day. After understanding why Finn decided to stay in Demacia, he finally made up his mind to pursue a future with the big brother.
The remaining three said they needed to look at it again.
After all, Demacia said it has abolished the ban on magic, but it is unknown how much inertia the thousands of years of customs have on the mage community.
Otherwise, the country of Demacia must be at the top of the list of livable countries in Valoran.
In her heart, Virginia only planned to visit this country that rejected mages. She didn't want to spoil Finn and Gerald's interest, so she didn't say anything.
…
The next day, when the sun was shining brightly at noon, the convoy finally arrived in Xiongdu.
This city has long been famous in the outside world, a giant beast that occupies the plains.
The capital of Demacia is undoubtedly one of the most majestic and charming cities on the continent. Sword Girl and Chai Anping did not feel the same as the other five, so they directly handed over the task to the reception staff and left on their war horses.
Of course, Chai Anping still has to wait for subsequent summons.
Stopping at a fork, Chai Anping hesitated.
Lux must be working at the Mage Registration Office now, whether or not to go and say something to her is a question.
Chai Anping had seen it in Feng Nu's treasure room a long time ago. Ellerbella had returned to the capital and went to work with Lux. At that time, he still didn't know why she could appear in that position and come back.
Later I learned that the kingdom had accepted a group of mages who attacked the palace.
After asking around for a while, I found out that Ellerbella had become a clerk to help Lux handle affairs.
He had been waiting for Lux to tell her about Elbella, but the girl didn't mention a word, which made him very embarrassed...
If he went to the registration office, he would have to meet Ellerbella. Chai Anping just briefly thought about the conversation between the two under the palace wall that day, and he was equally embarrassed to be able to dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes.
