my age of magic

Chapter 909 11. Jacques' Heart Knot

Jacques' youthful face turned red all of a sudden, and he stared at Noah in embarrassment and annoyance.

Noah walked up, put his arms around Jacques' shoulders, laughed, and said to Jacques: "If you are only worried about those people from the Fletcher family making trouble for you, you don't have to hide in Galapagos City, Fry The people of the Che family should be worrying about how to deal with the magicians of the law enforcement team, instead of asking you for debts."

Seeing Noah come up and put his arms around his shoulders, Jacques stood there stupidly. At this time, he seemed to be able to keep up with Noah's thoughts.

And Noah seemed to have played a small joke on him.Jacques thought that Noah just wanted to humiliate him, and then walked away.

Unexpectedly, Noah, who usually only likes to lock himself in the magic tower and is known as the magic genius of the new generation of the Mensa family, has such a detached personality. It seems that he is not the old-fashioned magician.

Jacques's little thoughts seemed to be written on his face.

Noah held Jacques' shoulders, walked out of the restaurant with him, and boarded a terrace outside the castle with Jacques. From here, you can see the entire east coast of Elisas City. I followed the coastline and quickly found it. The market on the fishing port wharf, in my eyes, is only a little bit like a firewood box.

In the evening, the sky in the west was painted with a layer of fiery red oil paint.

The east coast is tucked in the shadow of the Illinois Mountains, making the view somewhat blurred.

In the evening of summer in Illinas City, the sea breeze blows slowly, and the air is filled with a kind of warm heat, but it doesn't make people feel uncomfortably hot.

The girl followed Jacques quietly all the time, and the setting sun shone on her face through the setting sun, as if plating a layer of dark gold on her face.

Noah said to Jacques: "If you want to save money to pay off your debts, then going to the Vashj plane is not the best choice, and you have to bear certain risks to go there."

Jacques looked a little sad, he hesitated to speak.

Noah went on to say: "Instead of going to Galapagos City, I suggest you go to the Imperial Capital to take a look. You can settle at the Emerald Bay Trading Company first. I have a way to get Louis to accept you, but there is only one chance. , or I will write a letter to Louis, he needs a trustworthy person to help him in the imperial capital."

The girl stood behind the two and looked at Noah's back with gratitude in her eyes.

Noah and Jacques stood side by side on the city wall, looking at the sea level in the distance, Noah said to Jacques: "Believe me, you will love the life there."

After a short silence, Jacques asked Noah: "Have you made any mistakes?"

"Of course I made a mistake, who can not make a mistake!" Noah said to Jacques.

Noah said: "I remember one time, I accidentally knocked over a bottle of precious magic ink owned by Jon's mentor, and he was so angry that he punished me to copy magic books for half a month. Almost exhausted."

"I want to say..." Jacques' words came to his lips, and he swallowed them back.

Noah didn't mind either. He put his hands on the wall, kicked his feet vigorously, turned over and stood on the top of the high wall, pointed in the direction of the imperial capital, and said to Jacques: "Believe me, the beautiful life in the imperial capital is waiting for you. !"

The attendants in the distance saw Noah standing on the high city wall, worried that he might make a mistake, ran over from a distance, and said to Noah nervously: "Master Noah, be careful not to fall, The walls here are too high!"

Noah turned his head and glanced at the two attendants casually, and the attendants dared not speak any more.

"Come up!" Noah leaned over and stretched out his hand to Jacques.

Jacques looked at Noah in amazement, Noah stretched his hand forward again, Jacques put his hand on Noah's hand, jumped up with Noah's strength, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Noah On the wall stack, the two people looked down at the DC area of ​​Illinas City and the long coastline.

"This is life. Sometimes you will find that if you stand taller, you can see a more beautiful scenery." Noah looked at the vast endless sea in the distance, said to Jacques lightly, and then said: "Life It's not a gamble, and don't easily take your own destiny as a bet. We are so young, and we can still climb the highest mountain and cross the widest sea through unremitting efforts."

I saw Jacques clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were no longer as dim as before. It seemed that Noah's words of encouragement were very useful to Jacques.

The girl who had been behind ran over at this time, stood behind the wall, hugged Jacques' leg and shook it vigorously, saying, "Stupid Jacques, hurry up and promise Brother Noah!"

Noah wants to help Jacques change to a new living environment, so that he will get a new life, which may help Jacques get rid of the psychological shadow, Noah is well-intentioned.

I didn't expect that Jacques didn't agree.

Standing on the wall, he mustered up the courage to say to Noah, "Noah, I want to stand higher."

Noah looked at Jacques seriously, waiting for his explanation.

Jacques stood on the wall and said to Noah: "I have lived in Galapagos for more than half a year, and I am very familiar with the situation there. I know where to find a boat suitable for going to sea, and I also know which tavern You can find useful information, I think I can help you!"

"Actually, you don't have to prove yourself!" Noah put his hand on Jacques' shoulder and said.

Jacques was silent, just looked at Noah quietly.

After a while, Noah found that Jacques still hadn't changed his mind, so he jumped off the city wall easily, patted the dirt on his hands, and said to Jacques: "If you haven't changed your mind before tomorrow morning, I'm sending The magic circle is waiting for you."

After speaking, he left with me.

……

On a clear morning, sunlight came in from the side window on the east side, forming a dazzling beam of light.

I didn't sleep very well, I stood in front of the mirror with dark circles under my eyes, and wiped my slightly pale face with a wet towel.

I couldn't sleep tossing and turning in bed last night, maybe it was because I was about to go to a strange plane, and I was worried about the unknown plane.

A waiter came in with a tray, and breakfast consisted of a fried chocobo egg and two slices of white bread, with a small dish of jam and a glass of milk on the side.

Standing on the terrace with milk in hand, you can see the east corner of the back garden from the terrace of the room. Katerina got up from the bed early, wearing a set of tight leather armor, and Karan in the garden below the castle. Cuo practice swordsmanship together.

Seeing me standing on the terrace, Katerina raised her head and smiled at me. Kalancuo took the opportunity to punch Katerina's chin, and stabbed Katerina's thigh with the wooden sword in the other hand. , Katerina dodged lightly, and immediately counterattacked.

Two people come and go, and it is difficult to tell the winner for a while.

If Kalancuo is good at strength, then Katerina is superior in speed. Kalancuo has always taken the initiative on the scene from the beginning to the end, forcing Katerina to retreat steadily, but in fact, Kalancuo The measures didn't take advantage of anything, but because the main attacking side consumes far more power than Katerina.

Karan measures show a strong orc tribal style of fighting, which is very different from the swordsmanship of the Grimm Empire Academy. The orcs on the Pai Plateau are not afraid of death in battle, which is also their style. Martial arts don't pay attention to defense at all, just like the river of the Benma River rushing all the way.

On the other hand, Katerina's fighting style is more focused on the fighting methods of an assassin, always looking for a chance to kill with one blow.

Although the two of them didn't use the methods on the battlefield, this kind of actual fighting skills is far more thrilling than those fancy moves in the academy.

In the back garden of the Duke’s Mansion in the early morning, even the aristocratic sons of the Mensa family need to do some proper morning exercises at this time, but they are all gathered around the square on the east side of the garden to watch Kalancuo fight with Katerina , even Lante Knight and Bena female swordsman Miss Cherry stood in the crowd, watching the morning exercise of Kalantso and Katerina with great interest.

……

When Noah, Yingli, and Shirley Newman and I arrived at the teleportation magic circle at the appointed time, I happened to see Jacques sitting at the door of the teleportation magic circle. He was carrying a big bag and was thinking about the elevator. Looking forward to this side.

The girl was clasping her knees with her hands, squatting aside with a depressed face, and it seemed that Jacques' persuasion had no effect at all.

Jacques saw our group coming forward in a mighty way, full of envy for the seven constructed knights who followed behind, but Jacques was alone, not even a single follower.

This is the gap between Noah and Jacques. In the Mensa family, the inheritance of blood is still an important factor in determining identity.

"Jacques, you don't even have a follower, why do you have to go to Galapagos City? Who can take care of you over there?" Even when the girl was angry, her voice was still so beautiful.

"Listen to me, Carrie!" Jacques put his hands on the girl's thin shoulders, looked into her eyes, and their foreheads almost touched.

"I went here this time to get back my lost dignity. Although this thing can't be refined, it will allow me to straighten my waist when I walk in the future." Jacques said to the man named Jia Li's girl said seriously.

"Then at least prepare for it!" The girl Jiali untied a money bag from her waist, stuffed it into Jacques' hand and said, "I have saved a little money here, you go to the mercenary guild to hire a servant."

"It's too late!" Jacques raised his head and nodded slightly to Noah and me.

Carrie sat down on the ground, looked at Jacques full of attachment, and said, "Jacques, don't go to Galapagos City, okay? Please."

Jacques bent down, stretched out his hands to hold Carrie's delicate face, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and said, "Believe me, I will come back with my own glory and merit, and I will tell my father Want a seaside town, and I will take you there to be a little lord. At that time, you can live as you like, with the person you love, so that you will live more like Carrie's life in the future, not To marry an idiot from a noble family, to live in that rigid noble family."

Jacques whispered to Jiali again: "I promised my mother that I will take good care of you!"

At this time, Jiali, who was sitting on the ground, was finally not persuading, but exhausted all his strength, hugged Jacques tightly, and said with a sob: "I hope you can come back soon."

"I'll be back, you have to believe me!" Jacques finished and nodded to us, signaling that he was ready.

Noah stood at the door of the teleportation magic circle, watching Jiali run away crying and covering his face, he couldn't help but sighed and said to Jacques: "I really envy you, you have such a considerate sister."

Jacques gave Noah a complicated look, and said to him, "Actually, everyone in the castle envies you because you have an older brother Louis who really loves you."

Noah laughed happily.

The figure of Senior Dylan appeared in the door of the teleportation magic circle. He saw us waiting at the door and asked Noah and me with a smile: "Have all of you arrived? If you are ready, I will start the teleportation There's a magic circle!"

Noah and I didn't expect Senior Dylan to have already arrived at the teleportation magic circle, so we nodded quickly and said, "We're ready, Senior."

"Then I'm going to activate the teleportation magic circle. You wait for me here for a while. A huge light curtain will appear here. After we cross the light curtain, we will arrive at Galapagos on the Vashj plane. In the teleportation magic circle at the other end set up in Sicheng." Senior Dylan told us in detail.

After finishing speaking, he turned and walked into the teleportation magic circle.

After a while, the entire teleportation magic circle was filled with abundant magic elements, and from time to time, wind elements and lightning elements overflowed outward. before.

This light curtain is very large, like a huge city gate.

I stood under the city gate, looking up at the portal, with indescribable emotion in my heart.

"Is it shocking?" Senior Dylan stood behind me and asked me.

I nodded hastily.

"This is the charm of space-based magic. It is said that there was once a legendary mage of the space system who could open the 'Gate of Time and Space of Different Dimensions' and go wherever he wanted." Senior Dylan told me Said.

'Gate of time and space in different dimensions', this is probably the most powerful magic of space magicians.

Senior Dylan stood between Noah and me, looked up at the slight fluctuations in the light curtain of the portal in front of him, and then said to Noah and me: "The space-time rift is a little unstable now, just wait a bit!"

Of course, Noah and I have no disagreements. Sure enough, the light curtain will shake from time to time, which seems very unstable.

But we don't have much to worry about. After all, Dylan, who is good at magic circle maintenance, is here. Even if we encounter some problems, we will solve them easily.

While waiting for the teleportation magic circle to stabilize, I asked Senior Dylan: "Senior Dylan, how do those magicians who have their own half-planes open the portal? Could it be that magic with half-planes Master, do you all need to learn space magic?"

Senior Dylan explained to me: "Of course not. Generally speaking, mages who can own a half-plane are rare in the magic world. The reason why they can enter and leave their own half-plane at will is because they are There is a fixed portal on their demiplane, oh...it’s a long story, so it’s best to wait until later, now that our portal for transmitting the magic circle has stabilized, let’s go!”

After speaking, Senior Dylan stepped into the light curtain first.
