my age of magic

Chapter 1098 201. Jingyue Aili
Sophie used to be a water-type magic student at the Royal Academy of Magic. Three years ago, she successfully graduated from the Royal Academy of Magic. She traveled to Sloit City with her friend Sarah Allie, but was unfortunately involved in a conspiracy. Later, Sophie She was rescued by Mo Xiang's maid, Nian Si, and had a fruitless love affair with Mo Xiang because of the demon princess Mansa. Later, she worked as an assistant teacher of water magic at the War Magic Academy in El City for three years. Personal friendship with Moraya is good.

In the spring, Sophie quit her job as a teaching assistant at the Academy of War Magic, and secretly went to the imperial capital with Princess Sara.According to Ying Li, Princess Sha Aili and Sophie would occasionally go in pairs to attend balls held by some great nobles.

I didn't expect Sophie to visit late at night. Katerina stood at the door of the dormitory, looking at Sophie suspiciously.

"Teacher Sophie, why are you here?" I walked to the door of the dormitory and said to Sophie in surprise.

Sophie stood at the door with an anxious look on her face, not intending to come in, she quickly said to me: "Jijia, come with me to see Duke Jingyue!"

"What happened to Duke Jingyue?" I was taken aback and asked Sophie.

Sophie grabbed my wrist, pulled me outside, and said as she walked, "It's not convenient to talk here. My magic caravan is already waiting at the gate of the academy. It's urgent. Let's talk in the magic caravan."

I struggled a little and said to Sophie, "Wait a minute, let me put on a coat."

I was in the dormitory, only wearing a pair of lantern trousers and a white shirt that magicians usually wear most. Katerina took a Mithril magic robe from the hanger, chased to the door, and helped me put it on in a hurry. Then she walked out of the dormitory with me, carrying her magic pattern structure.

I hurried to the entrance of the Magic Academy, and I saw a row of black magic caravans parked at the entrance of the academy, with the Eri family's 'Lightning' emblem printed on the carriages.

On both sides of the caravan were constructed knights riding black horses. In this silent night, the atmosphere was extremely dull. It seemed that the situation must be very serious.

Sophie pulled me into a magic caravan, and then the convoy rushed into the cold street like a train. Constructed knights rode on black horses and galloped on both sides of the convoy. The dense hooves sounded like rain When they hit the banana leaves, they could be clearly distinguished at first, but then the sound became one piece, and it seemed that no one could stop the speeding magic caravan.

Sophie sat across from me, with her hands folded on her stomach, her face looked haggard, and she said to me apologetically, "Jijia, I'm sorry to bother you at such a late hour."

"What happened to Duke Jingyue?" I couldn't wait to ask Sophie. After all, the Duke of Jingyue is the Duke of Sloit Province. If something happened to her, Sloit Province might fall into turmoil Among them, after all, she holds the largest legion in the northern border of the Green Empire in her hands.

Sophie drank some water, calmed down, and then said to me: "Duke Jingyue was attacked and killed by a Nacoma warlord when he was leading the Constructed Knights to fight the Nacoma people in the Kenda plane. She was seriously injured and just arrived in the imperial capital this evening. She is currently receiving treatment in the Campbell Nursing Home. She is only waiting for her injuries to stabilize before returning to Sluit province on a magic airship overnight. She said that before returning to Sluit province, she would like to I want to see you."

"Is Princess Sha with her?" I asked Sophie.

Sophie nodded.

Since Sophie came to the Royal Academy of Magic to find me, it means that both she and Sarah Ellis already know about Duke Jingyue's accident. The person Duke Jingyue needs most at this moment is her only younger sister, Sarah. Ai Li, Duke Jingyue is not yet married, so she does not have any heirs to inherit her title, so the only person who can inherit the Grand Duke of Sloit Province is Princess Sa Aili.

I asked Sophie: "Why did you leave in such a hurry? Wouldn't it be better to stay here in the imperial capital and return to the northern border after the injury is healed?"

Sophie shook her head and said to me: "The Sola University scholar said that the chance of a cure is not great. Duke Jingyue is so anxious to return to Sloit City to help Sarah Allie stabilize Sloit City. It's a chaotic situation right now."

I was a little surprised, I didn't expect that Duke Jingyue was injured so badly that even Lord Sola was helpless.

I have heard about Sophie and Sarah Allie to some extent. The two of them have some unclear and ambiguous relationship. Duke Jingyue has always had a headache for this overly pampered sister.

The convoy stopped at the entrance of a large manor next to Weiyang Lake in the first block. The gate was wide open, but our two magic caravans drove directly into the manor, and a team of knights in magic pattern guarded the gate.The magic caravan drove straight in and stopped at the stone steps in front of the castle.

The square in front of the castle is brightly lit, and many people are standing outside the castle. A row of magic caravans are parked on the grass not far away. The light there is not very bright, but the family emblems on the carriages are in the dark. It was shining brightly, and I also saw a magic caravan from the Prince James Mansion, which was also parked among many magic caravans.

Those people standing in the courtyard square saw another magic caravan driving in outside the manor, so they turned around to observe what kind of big man was sitting in the car.Among those people, it seemed that someone recognized me, so they immediately started pointing at me, and then began to discuss in whispers one after another.

Sophie and I jumped out of the carriage in a hurry, and Katerina followed behind me. The three of us climbed the stone steps and walked quickly into the castle.

A butler was standing in front of the gate of the castle. When he saw Sophie leading me and Katerina in, he quickly greeted her and asked Sophie, "Miss Sophie, who are these two?"

Sophie hurriedly said to the middle-aged housekeeper, "Your Majesty the Magician Jijia, this is his entourage, Miss Katerina."

When the butler heard Sophie say my name, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at my face carefully twice, and then said: "Ah, you are the magician Jijia, the Duke is waiting for your arrival, Three please follow me."

The corridor is covered with thick scarlet blankets, some animal horns and skulls are hung on one side of the wall, and all kinds of strange weapons are hung on the other side, and colorful oil paintings are painted on the ceiling, probably the artist wants to express the ethereal Cloud City, passing through the long corridors of the castle, the stone walls of the corridors are lit with magic wall lamps, the castle looks old and dull, with a strong northern atmosphere.

On the second floor, the middle-aged butler suddenly turned around and said to me: "I saw your portrait three years ago, it looks like you have changed a lot, I'm sorry! I didn't recognize you at first sight."

"Portrait?" I repeated suspiciously.

The middle-aged butler pointed to the wall opposite the stairs on the second floor. There was an oil painting more than ten feet long hanging on that wall. I could tell at a glance that the painting was about the scenery of the Fish Lake outside El City. , Then my eyes fell on the lakeside of Yuhu Lake. A group of guard knights was surrounded by barbarians all over the mountains and plains in a corner, and a child with an immature face stood in the lake stepping on the wind and waves. The child's face looked like Kind of like me.

This portrait... I remember that the lake was still quite calm at that time. I guess this portrait was drawn by Duke Jingyue. I didn't expect that I was also on this painting, and another clear face on this painting was Duke Jingyue, at that time, Duke Jingyue was only the head of the Sloit City Guard.

No one would have thought that it took only three years for this duchess to master the most powerful army in the north—the North Wind. , I saw on the wall a bust of Duke Jingyue wearing light leather armor and a rapier at the waist and hips. Judging from the oil painting, without the aura of the Duke, she is a very dignified and beautiful woman.

Probably the biggest regret of the Old Duke of Ward is that he was not able to see Duke Jingyue complete his wedding before he died. The most embarrassing thing about this duchess with power in the north is her marriage. In her current status, There are only a handful of young talents in the empire who are worthy of her.

A few months ago, I met Duke Jingyue in the airport town, but I didn't expect that when I met again, it would be like this.

The middle-aged housekeeper said to me: "Recently, I often read some rumors about you in the magic newspapers. I heard that you can also use some healing spells. I heard that you recently cured the three constructed knights beside the Duke of Samoyed? "

I said to the middle-aged housekeeper: "I have learned some auxiliary magic of the water system. As for rescuing the three constructed knights, it must be a coincidence! Because I was a good friend with Lord Sola's student Su, who was the Duke of Samoyed at the time. It was a bit reckless to ask me to send the three seriously injured constructed knights to the Campbell Sanatorium, but the final result was acceptable."

While talking, while walking.

The four of us came to the door of the luxurious room, and there were four maids with basins standing at the door.

Just as the middle-aged butler was about to ask questions, the door was pushed open by a maid, and several maids came out one after another. They all held basins in their hands, and the water in the basins had been stained light red by blood.

At this time, the four maids waiting at the door hurried into the room with basins in hand.

I followed behind the middle-aged housekeeper, and walked into this room. This is a luxuriously decorated living room. There are a group of nursing staff and medical assistants from the Campbell Nursing Home standing in the room. I immediately saw the man sitting on the sofa resting Sola University scholar, Su and three other young women wearing priest robes were sitting on the sofa next to him. Su was sitting in a corner of the sofa, quietly watching the other three priests, two women and one man, arguing about some healing methods. thing.

Several assistants saw the maid outside the door bringing clean water, and quickly led them into the inner bedroom. A medical assistant saw me and the middle-aged housekeeper, and immediately walked up, frowning and asked me: "Who are you?"

"This is Magician Jijia. Your Excellency the Duke wants to see him." The middle-aged butler quickly explained to the medical assistant in the Campbell Sanatorium.

The medical assistant scolded the middle-aged housekeeper: "Master Sola has just performed the 'strong healing technique' and 'shock resistance', and is currently resting. There cannot be too many idle people here, and the current state of Duke Jingyue Very bad, need more rest, why bring someone here at this time?"

"Then when can we see the Duke?" The middle-aged butler hesitated for a moment and asked the medical assistant.

The medical assistant replied without raising his head: "After Master Sola wakes up, I will ask Master Sola for instructions. What you need to do now is to go outside and wait patiently."

"Mage Jijia, are you here to find Priest Su? The priest is resting over there." Another voice came from the side.

A medical assistant ran over, grabbed the medical assistant who was just talking with his head down, and didn't even move his eyes, and said to her: "Hey, Mino, haven't you seen Your Excellency Jijia Magician?" ? He is Priest Su's good friend in the imperial capital."

The medical assistant resisted for a moment, shook off his companion's hand, and said righteously: "Could Priest Su's friend break the rules here?"

Su Ping's voice sounded from behind her: "Who are you talking about breaking the rules here?"

The medical assistant was so frightened that his entire body trembled violently, he turned his head to look at Su in horror, and said in a low voice: "Ah, Master Su! I didn't mean him... I just... acted according to Master Sola's orders, I I don’t want anyone here to disturb Master Sola.”

Su stood in front of her expressionlessly, and said lightly: "In this living room, no one will disturb Lord Sola except you, get out, now! Stay away when you see me in the future, and don't let me come again!" Seeing you, I'm not the type to forgive others easily."

The medical assistant wanted to argue: "Master Su, how could you..."

Su Qingxiu had a bit of majesty on her face, and asked back: "What? Didn't I say it clearly enough?"

Before the medical assistant could say anything, he was pulled out by several paramedics.

I walked up to Su and saw that she was wearing a pure white priest robe, her face was too pale due to excessive use of magic power, I reached out and touched her face, and said, "Su, don't embarrass her, I Knowing that she just reminded me kindly, there is no malicious intention."

Su gave me an annoyed look, and then said to me: "Duke Jingyue's condition is not very good. Before Master Sola gave her treatment, she said she wanted to see you. Now she should be awake, just wait for me." , I'll go inside to see what's going on."

I nodded to Su, and stood at the door of Duke Jingyue's bedroom with the housekeeper and Sophie, waiting quietly.

Katerina was behind me, looking curiously at the Campbell Nursing Home crowd.

Not long after, Su came out of the room and said to me: "Duke Jingyue wants to see you, so go in!"

I walked into Duke Jingyue's bedroom, and Katerina and Sophie also wanted to follow in, but Su stopped him with his hand.

There is a gorgeous big bed in the middle of this bedroom, and the veil hangs from the ceiling. A girl in a princess dress kneels beside the big bed, choking and sobbing softly. , several maids surrounded the bed, and were wiping the blood on the patient lying on the bed with a cotton cloth, but the blood seemed to be inexhaustible no matter what, and a faint black magic breath continued to spread from the bed.

I walked over step by step, and saw Jingyue and Duke Ellie lying on the big bed with a face as golden as paper...
