The mage arrives

After Viscount Anthony and Master Schlieffen were tricked into the trap and suffered a big loss, Gordon had a lot more time in his hands.He, Earl Julian and Faliya could move everything in the Rainbow Spring Manor without any hassle, leaving nothing behind except a piece of land.

Even the rainbow spring, which has miraculous healing effects and the ability to enhance physical fitness, completely cut off the source of the spring water—the spring leading to another world.

After the Eisenstein family got the land, it probably had no other use except for growing food.

It took three days and after everything was settled, Faria and Gordon were ready to leave for the imperial capital.Earl Julian, on the other hand, stayed in Farfrost Province and continued to handle various chores.

Go south via the Kenwa Canal, and two days later, enter the central province.Then it was replaced with a ship specially prepared by the Anduin royal family for Gordon and Faliya. Passed through the confluence of the two rivers at the port of Erana, from the north-south Kenva Canal to the east-west rushing river, and sailed eastward against the current for half a day. Time finally entered the territory of the imperial capital Longen City.

This is the largest city in the Platinum Empire of Freyton, and it is also one of the largest cities in the entire northern continent, and even in the entire main material world.The urban area covers an area of ​​nearly [-] square kilometers and has a population of over one million.The Kenwa Canal, the Running River, and the Evergreen River meet near Longen City.Including Erana Port, there are eight satellite ports distributed on both sides of the river near Longen City, and the convenient water transportation supplies supplies to this great city day and night.

With the productivity of this era, we can only rely on cheap and convenient water transportation.In order to support a metropolis with a population of more than one million.

All the way south, Gordon also witnessed the scenery along the coast from desolate to prosperous.

As the latitude continues to decrease, the climate begins to gradually warm up.The northern country, which is still snowy, is gradually replaced by the lush and green early spring.On both sides of the rushing river, farmland and houses gradually become denser, and occasionally exquisite and comfortable noble manors and private forest gardens can be seen.

After disembarking at the satellite port Valase, Gordon found that although he was still in the suburbs fifty kilometers away from Longen City, the surrounding area was already full of people, no worse than Clear Water City.Different races speak different languages.Running between the streets, there is a bustling scene.

Because a grand victory celebration ceremony is about to be held, tourists, merchants, and nobles flock to the imperial capital recently.There was an endless stream, making the imperial capital seem overcrowded for a while.

Out of low-key considerations, Gordon declined the emperor's plan to send a welcome guard of honor, and he and Faria brought a few servants.Riding alone into the city.

Longen City, the capital of Freidon, is the kind of great city that can fully display the imperial atmosphere.Gordon and Faliya could already see the towering pure white city wall from a kilometer away.Although it doesn't have the sense of vicissitudes of war that Gaoyan City has experienced, but in terms of solemnity and majesty, there is probably no city in Freyton that can match it.

It is said that when night falls, when the magic lamp powered by the Miser energy core is illuminated, the pure white walls of Longen City will still glow with a faint golden light.It is extraordinarily gorgeous, and it is a superb view praised by travelers all over the continent.

But whether it is the famous mainland scenery.It was still an ordinary scene in the streets and alleys, and Gordon had no time to appreciate it at this time.After he and Faliya entered the city, they rode their horses straight to their destination—the palace specially built by the Anduin royal family to entertain distinguished guests.

On Seraph Square in front of the palace, Gordon saw his sister.

Although in terms of time alone, the two had only been separated for ten days, but because too many things happened during that time, Gordon still felt like he hadn't seen him for a long time when they met again.

The younger sister is still dressed in the capable dress of the shirt and breeches.

Beauty, no matter what clothes you wear, you can give people a pleasing feeling.If it is an ugly girl, if she dresses simply, she will be sloppy, but if she dresses up a little more, it will be an ugly person doing more mischief.This face-seeking world is so cruel.

"elder brother!"

Xiona, who was waiting in the square, saw Gordon, and couldn't wait to quicken her pace and ran over.

Watching the joy from his heart on his younger sister's face, Gordon smiled involuntarily, and then opened his arms.He held his sister's delicate body in his arms, lowered his head, and sniffed lightly.

Applying a certain ad slogan still has the familiar taste.

As a time traveler, although Gordon has lived in the world of Tylos for a while, he has also experienced many things.But in many cases, when recalling various experiences on earth, he still lacks a sense of reality of living in this world.But Xiona is the link that connects him with this world.

Every time he stayed with his sister, he always felt very peaceful in his heart.

Gordon tasted this feeling carefully, and after a long time, he said to the girl in his arms: "Okay, if you don't leave, I will have to bless a hundred protective spells on my body before I dare to go out. Otherwise, I will definitely be killed by the battlefield." Worshipers of angels killed."

Xiona lifted her head buried in her brother's chest, looked around, and found that almost all the guards on the square and pedestrians coming and going were looking at this side, and some were still pointing quietly.

She has a calm and introverted personality, and has never been so bold in public.Being watched by many eyes, a red cloud immediately appeared on the girl's fair cheeks, and then quickly spread to her ears.

But Xiona still didn't move, instead she used both hands to hug her even tighter.

"I can't control that much. Brother, you are so powerful, just help me drive away all the annoying ghosts." She murmured, her voice became softer and softer, "I'm afraid that if I let go, I will never see my brother again It's..."

Gordon knew that the reason why his younger sister confided her heart so rarely today was because she was terrified during the few days when she disappeared.

Even if she had confidence in Gordon again, Xiona would still feel uneasy before she got the exact news.

Gordon sighed, kissed his sister lightly on the forehead, and said, "My sister is so cute, how could I be willing to leave?"

After a while, Xiona let go of her hand and left her brother's reassuring embrace.

Ms. Bishop, who was waiting by the side, came over and said with a smile: "The relationship between you brothers and sisters is really enviable. It's not like my brother who always causes trouble for others."

"Ma'am." Xiona still had a little shyness on her face.

Gordon also greeted her.

Ms. Bishop is still tall and straight, capable and steady, giving people a feeling of being reliable and reliable.But Gordon noticed that her face was a little pale, and her eyes were faintly bloodshot.I must have been sad for a long time after learning the sad news of the Grand Duke's death.

Gordon felt a little sad.If I also leave this world, I don't know how the girls who have had relationships with me will react?

But as a realist, he quickly discarded this kind of nonsense that was useless except to increase sadness.

Falia, who had been watching quietly not far away, also came up at this time and greeted Ms. Bishop and Xiona.Then a group of people walked to the residence.

Walking on the gorgeous corridor lined with sapphire stone pillars on both sides, Gordon noticed that the young Grand Duchess looked a little strange, as if she was absent-minded.He leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter, Faria?"

The girl shook her head and smiled wryly: "It's nothing, it's just that I was touched when I saw the scene where you and Xiona met just now."

This young girl who was born in Orlandos and had the blood of a silver dragon in her body showed a rare soft side.She lost her mother when she was young, and now she has just resolved the conflict with her father, and the relationship has become harmonious, and she has to face the situation of her father's death, which is indeed very pitiful.Although Gordon has no parents, at least he has a younger sister to depend on each other.As for Faliya, it can be said that she is really completely intact.

The girl who has always been strong shows her weak side occasionally, which makes people feel more sympathetic.Gordon coughed and said, "Before the Grand Duke left, he entrusted me to take care of you. Well, don't worry, it's not like in those cliché knight novels where the teacher asked the student to marry her only daughter before he died... If you If you have any troubles, or just want to talk to someone, you can come to me."

Gordon hands Faria a summons brooch.

The silver-haired girl nodded, took the things away, and said, "I see, thank you."

Gordon knew that Faria was not good at expressing his emotions, so it was enough to say thank you and accept it.

That night, after Gordon exchanged information with Xiona and Ms. Bishop, they went to bed early to prepare for the summoning of His Majesty Emperor Trajan tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Gordon changed into the ceremonial robes sent by the royal servants, and then went to the palace to have an audience.

In the imperial palace, there are many halls with different themes. Today, the place where Gordon meets His Majesty the Emperor is called the "Oasis Hall".It is said that the hall was built in imitation of the scenery of the Muland Desert Empire in the southern continent, full of exotic customs.

"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty will be here soon." The silver-white humanoid construct said to Gordon in a slightly dull voice.

The Grand Duke used water yuan to make servants, and the emperor used puppet servants.For powerful people, even the choice of servants is different.

Due to the special functions of these puppet servants, the manufacturing cost is higher than that of an iron golem.Those envoys from small foreign countries would probably be too shocked to speak when they saw these astonishing constructed creatures.

The palace is full of details that inadvertently reveal the financial and national power of the empire.For example, the oasis hall where Gordon is located is really arranged like a desert oasis, which makes people feel immersive.The light yellow fine sand on the ground is soft and delicate, and has been specially treated to have a strong cohesive force and will not disperse like ordinary sand.

While Gordon was carefully studying how much the special sand under his feet would cost alchemists to manufacture, the supreme ruler of the empire finally arrived.

But when Gordon saw the emperor, his cheeks twitched and he almost laughed out loud. (To be continued..)
