The meeting on the 436th floor of the Holy Tower had already ended, and after the ten or so third level Grand Magicians exchanged and communicated their thoughts, the black-robed elder announced that the meeting was adjourned.
The chirping raven from the last meeting did not show up this time, and its owner, the faceless wizard named Joss, did not show up this time either.
"When another few decades pass, old friends will come back again ah!" A Third Grade Grand Magician sighed as he walked out.
"Yeah, and several more third level magicians were sent a year ago, even that guy from Undisguised Mask went there!" A magician who went with him interjected.
"I think it's to save Michelle, who I'm told seems to have been struck by a centaur royalty."
"With that guy around, Michelle's safe return isn't a problem!"
These two magicians' words were mostly words of care for Michelle, and it seemed that this magician was well-liked in the Holy Tower.

Sifi was a first class knight of the Sia family, the Sia family and the royal family were all together, so it made sense to stay, and as for why Marquis Sandru chose to stay as well, it was mostly because he was old and didn't want to get involved in the Otherworldly War.You know, even with the care of the second level Earth Knight Roma Knight, the Otherworldly War is still very treacherous, and every Knight who goes out to battle will sign a will to the Knight's Hall as a custodian before he leaves his home position.The conversation between King Faustian and the Knight of Roma lasted until late at night.The Rom Knights, with their great strength and bodies, were fine with just not eating or drinking for a month, but King Faustian couldn't even afford the lack of sleep.At Princess Kent's urging, King Faustian moved to his bedroom to rest.This woman who was beautiful enough to be the late King of Faustian, ever since she married into Faustian, she d
Princeton was big, and exactly how big it was was evident by the fact that it housed nearly four million inhabitants in a single city, equal to the total population of two Faustian kingdoms.So the incident of the convergence of high-ranking knights that happened in the northeast city had little or no effect on the people of the entire imperial capital.The Royal Academy's campus was relatively cold today, one was that the vacation hadn't ended yet and the students were still busy with their trial quests, and the other was that call-up order issued by the Knight's Hall.The Imperial Royal Academy had a total of six branches, and the Knight branch accounted for four of them, and the Magician branch only had two, so in the school, most of them were still knights in the majority.If one were to ask what place in Princeton had the most high-ranking squires, it would probably have to be the Imperial Royal Academy, in addition to the branch of the Knight's Hall.
Locke was a second-class soldier of the Faustine Kingdom. He had started serving at the age of 14 and had been serving for 4 years. Today, he was in a good mood. Because it was the day to pay for the soldiers, the second-class soldiers of the kingdom had three silver ducas a month. In addition, there were two silver ducas that Baron Cadozzi provided for his soldiers. He could get four silver ducas a month. Why four, not five? It was because the military would always embezzle one silver ducas. That was a tradition.Locke couldn't wait to receive four silver ducas. Then, he would ask Lord Baron's caravan to send three back to his hometown. He hoped that his sister could buy a ribbon that she liked to replace the rough-linen wrapped on her hair. He also hoped that his parents would eat one or two meals of white bread in the next month. They were already in poor health. As for the remaining silver ducas, Locke would treat his brothers to a drink. He had a little authority,
Four years of war had given Locke the habit of eating quickly. He finished the meal, wiped his hands, and said to Hans, "Hans, let's go."Locke arrived at the munition depot again. It was noon now, and most people were either sleeping or soaking in taverns. Locke walked straight to the posthouse at the rear of the munition depot, took the money pouch from Hans, and walked into the courier station."Warner! Warner!" Locke shouted."What! What's the matter! Damn Locke, I heard it. You ruined my afternoon nap. You damned bastard!" Warner, who was in charge of the courier station's communication duties, walked out of a room and complained, "Is it sending money to your family again? Come on, give it to me!""Here, this is mine. And those bags belong to other guys in my team. Don't mess it up!" Locke warned."I know, I know. It's not the first time I worked for this. None of the other teams are as fussy as you!" Warner was s
When it was four in the afternoon, most of the people woke up. Locke got out of bed and began to call his subordinates. "Let's go and drink outside the camp! It's so hot that I can't sleep!" Locke complained."Great!" Locke's team members were very excited that they could immediately enjoy free wine. On a hot day, only the iced ale could let them calm down."Kane, take them to Green Palm Tavern first. Order a glass of ale for each of them and book a private room. Tell the lady boss that it's on me. Hans, go with me to visit Captain Joshak." Locke instructed."Yes.". Kane and Hans answered.Locke and Hans came to Uncle Joshak's tent, "Uncle Joshak, go drink!" Just as they entered the tent, Locke shouted at Uncle Joshak, who seemed to have just woken up."I know. Kid, lower your voice. I got a headache because of you." Uncle Joshak teased."Uncle, let's go. I have already arranged for someone to book a priva
After entering the room, Uncle Joshak casually took off his casual clothes and placed them on the hanger before sitting on the sofa. So did Locke. He put his clothes away and sat on the other side. The two men in military leather shirts were not in a hurry to speak. Locke first opened the wine bottle, filled the cups for Uncle Joshak and himself. They clinked their cups and drank first. Then they began to talk about business."Good, you are becoming more and more steady. It seems that you have improved a lot these years." Uncle Joshak said first. It was really incredible. In others' eyes, the bold, straightforward, and rugged Joshak taught a person to be calm. It seemed that this bearded man was not as simple as how he looked like."Uncle Joshak, you must be joking. This is nothing. I learned it from you." Locke said humbly."Don't talk nonsense! When did I teach you this? Am I that kind of person?" Uncle Joshak laughed and scolded. After that,
After drinking for a while, they began to talk about their hometown. Locke could tell that Uncle Joshak was missing his two sons, and he was teaching Locke some attitudes and manners to do things. Locke was also very touched by Uncle Joshak's friendship, and he often treated himself a junior and toasted Uncle Joshak. Locke had an impression of Uncle Joshak's two sons. When he first joined the army, Uncle Joshak's eldest son inherited Uncle Joshak's blacksmith shop, and his youngest son was a small assistant working in the blacksmith shop. The youngest son forged Locke's first weapon, a short dagger.This short dagger had no wooden handle, only the end of the knife was wrapped in a rough linen cloth as the hilt. The short dagger was small and thin, always hidden in his boots. It also had a story.When he secretly joined the army when he was 14 years old, he only brought this short dagger with him. At that time, a boy with a palm-sized dagger joined the army
Locke followed Uncle Joshak down the stairs. At the corner of the stairs, he saw the beautiful lady boss at the front desk again. The lady boss, who was settling accounts, was bent over and lying on the counter. From Locke's angle, he could see the white and smooth chest. Moreover, the lady boss had a kind of intellectual beauty when she was doing accounts. Locke was stunned. He almost rolled down the stairs.At this time, it was already close to evening. The sunset dyed the sky red, and orange-red light shone through the tavern door curtain. There were not many soldiers drinking in the tavern. Except for Locke's team, there were only a few people left. After Uncle Joshak went downstairs, he first greeted the soldiers who were still in the tavern, "Boys, it's almost dinner time. I'll go back to camp first. Go back early." After the remaining soldiers of the tavern responded respectfully, Uncle Joshak turned back and nodded to Locke, leaving first.After sen
