After I died of old age, I was reincarnated into another world and became a cat

"Hey, can't you kick a little more gently?!"

Chapter 50: Returning to the Academy and Following the Girl

Ah, familiar touch, familiar environment.

Then he closed his eyes and opened them again, and found himself back in the palace. At this moment, footsteps happened to be heard outside the door.

"Lord La Luna, His Majesty has approved your return to the Magic Academy. There is a convoy prepared for you at the city gate. When can you set off?"

Hilde walked in, crouched gently beside La Luna and spoke, with a clear sense of master-servant in her tone.

"Let's go now, hey, help me up..."

After losing an arm, he felt that his balance was a little unbalanced, and he was still quite weak. He couldn't pull Luna, so he had to ask Hilde to support him and walked out.

When La Luna and Hilde arrived at the city gate, La Luna stared at the long line of cars in front of her with her eyes wide open.

"Is this the convoy you're talking about? This is an army!"

The convoy waiting at the city gate, in addition to the main vehicle that La Luna was going to ride, had a team of knights in heavy armor in the front row, light cavalry with lances in the back row, and two guards with long swords on the left and right sides of the main vehicle.

Is he sending me back to the academy? La Luna thought that if the emperor suddenly appeared at this time and told me that he was going to the north to supervise the war, I would believe it...

"No, I mean, this is too big a scene, isn't it?"

La Luna complained to Hilde, but Hilde said that this was not a rare thing. How could the royal family not make sure to be foolproof when sending someone away?

Originally, he was careless when he called for people to come and only sent one carriage. As a result, something happened on the way and of course the royal family had to take responsibility. And this time, both for safety reasons and to make up for the previous gaffe, it is right to send more people for escort.

Besides, there are only a few of them, and the average strength of each of them is only forest-level. The leading captain is just a sky-level warrior. Such a character is at best a soldier in the imperial capital's guards. Sending him out to perform such a mission will not cause any impact on the imperial capital.

But anyway, this is the decision of the royal family and has nothing to do with me. It would be best if I could be safe on the way back. After all, I was injured and couldn't do anything rash like that.

Thinking of this, La Luna simply relaxed and got into the carriage. Then, with the driver's command, the entire convoy began to move forward slowly.

Around the avenues of the imperial capital, many people curiously poked their heads out of their homes to watch this fully armed convoy leave the city. All of a sudden, all kinds of rumors spread throughout the streets and alleys of the imperial capital, and the content of the rumors was outrageous.

But these things had nothing to do with La Luna, who had already entered the Shinto on a carriage.

After feeling the familiar atmosphere on the Shinto Road, the convoy that La Luna was in sped away quickly.

With such a small force protecting them along the way, there were naturally no problems. After two days of driving, La Luna soon saw the end of the sacred road.

The college is not far ahead.

After passing another sign, the convoy began to slow down slowly, then gradually slowed down at the end of the shrine, and then stepped onto the gravel road at a leisurely pace.

After a while, such a small army was quickly spotted by the magic observers at the border of Alris, and the royal emblem on the car was too dazzling.

Soon the city gates of Alreis were opened and a small force was sent out to welcome them.

La Luna stuck her head out of the carriage and looked at the team in front. Because she had been in the academy before, she had basically never observed the decorations of the border guards of Alris City. Now, especially with the comparison with the royal troops, it can be seen that the city defense troops of Alris simply wrote the word magic on their equipment.

The royal family wore standard black armor of the empire, without any fancy details. It was made of pure iron and of solid quality.

As for Alris, he was wearing a shining silver armor with various magic runes engraved on it that should be used for defense. As for the quality of the armor itself... With all the magic runes engraved on it, what quality could there be? Generally speaking, on the battlefield, this kind of armor is almost invincible as long as there is magic power as long as there is no enemy that is too powerful. But once the magic power is exhausted, I am afraid that even paper armor will be more reliable than this one.

However, carving magic arrays on the armor and driving it with magic power makes me feel that this thing can become a magic-powered exoskeleton with a little modification.

"Excuse me, what do you want to do here?"

"I am here on the orders of the Emperor to escort Lady La Luna, the magic instructor at the Ares Magic Academy, back to the academy."

Not a tutor, but a lecturer...

Forget it. You probably won’t understand even if I tell you.

La Luna felt that it was simply a madman for her to try to explain the level of teachers in the magic academy to an ordinary human soldier.

(Hey, Muggle)

After the city defense army learned the purpose of the convoy's visit, they quickly let it pass. They were just asking questions in a businesslike manner. If they really followed the convention, they wouldn't be able to say anything if the other party rushed directly to the city gate. After all, they were considered the central army.

Then the troops marched into the city in a swagger and strolled to the gate of the Magic Academy.

By the time La Luna was ready to get off the bus, she was surrounded by a group of curious citizens.

La Luna felt that if she went out, hundreds of eyes would be focused on her, so La Luna simply shrank her body back to her clumsy appearance and threw herself into Hilde's arms.

"so big…"

"?"

"Ahem, there are a lot of people outside, just carry me out like this."

Facing Hilde's puzzled expression, La Luna explained.

"Oh, I see. You don't want to draw too much attention to yourself, do you?"

Hilde nodded as if she understood, and La Luna raised her left paw and gave her a thumbs up.

(La Luna thinks it’s great)

"I understand. I am your strongest shield, keeping out everything that is not good for you."

After La Luna nodded to show her agreement, Hilde carried La Luna and walked out of the car. As expected, as Hilde walked out of the car, countless eyes were staring at her. Although many people looked at La Luna, after all, she was just a cat, and except for the people in the academy, people outside the academy probably wouldn't understand it.

"Is Lecturer La Luna back?"

La Luna was in Xier's arms. Although the noise around him was very noisy, he could still faintly hear the voices of his students mixed in.

La Luna raised her head and looked around. As expected, several students from her class were gathered in a small group and looking this way.

However, La Luna saw a very ominous figure in this crowd.

"Oh... why is she coming this way..."

That bad guy... no, it's the sixth princess of the empire...

"See Your Highness the Princess!"

It was obvious that all the soldiers from the imperial capital knew the Sixth Princess. When she came to the front from the crowd, some sharp-eyed soldiers naturally saw her by accident.

"No need for courtesy. I am just a student in the academy now and do not need any special treatment."

"Yes! Princess! I will obey your orders in everything!"

(You guys are really crazy then...)

La Luna just watched it all silently.

"Teacher La Luna, welcome back. We are already looking forward to your next class."

"Well, there are too many people here, let's go to the academy first."

"Ok."

The Sixth Princess nodded to LaLuna, then stretched out a hand to lead LaLuna, or to be more precise, to lead Hilde.

After entering the academy, the Sixth Princess quickly came over and asked in a low voice.

"Hilde? Your name is Hilde, right? The shield that my brother secretly trained. Why did you come to the academy with Instructor La Luna?"

"This is His Majesty's request. I have no right to ask."

"Did my brother tell you anything else? Like, did he miss me?"

"I'm sorry, His Majesty only gave me the order to protect Lady La Luna, and nothing else."

"what!"

La Luna was so close to the two people that she could hear even the smallest sound. It was obvious that Her Royal Highness the Princess did not consider herself an outsider and asked directly to their faces.

"It seems like my brother is living a pretty carefree life, huh?! I don't miss my sister anymore since she's been away for so long!"

"........."

La Luna and Hilde were both speechless.

Just as they were walking on the way to the college, a long-haired girl walked directly into the school gate with an indifferent expression. However, the guard standing in the security room at the school gate seemed not to see the long-haired girl at all.

At this moment, a breeze happened to blow and lifted the girl's long hair behind her.

"What's that smell? It smells so good..."

The guard sniffed his nose hard and felt itchy. He sneezed violently. After looking around to make sure there was no one around, he rubbed his nose in confusion, trying to recall where the smell came from.

"Hehehe... the Northern Fortress is just like this."

The girl looked at the weak guard at the entrance of the academy and sneered with disdain.

However, several figures quickly appeared from above the academy and attacked the girl.

"!"

With her extremely keen perception, the girl predicted the landing points of these attacks and dodged them nimbly.

"Who are you? Why are you trespassing into the magic academy?"

"Hehe, what old fellow dares to block my way?"

The long-haired girl slowly pulled out a dagger from her back, and then her body and mind instantly disappeared from the spot!

"Hmph, the talent of erasing perception may be useful when used outside."

But this is the magic academy!

A man drew out a staff and pointed it at the ground. Under the girl's originally hidden figure, a series of footsteps suddenly appeared on the ground.

"Tsk, human magic is really troublesome..."

Chapter 51: Katerina

"This is really a headache. If you guys leave now, I can still let you go."

Feeling that the ground seemed to stick to her footsteps, the girl simply stopped and stood still, the long blade in her hand glowing ominously.

Those people put away their formation at this time. They were all teachers of the school, but they were also responsible for protecting the academy. The underground of the entire academy was covered with a giant magic circle, and with the school magic circle as the center, there was also a super magic circle base outside that covered the entire city. These teachers were responsible for daily monitoring of any uninvited guests in the academy's territory.

Therefore, when this unidentified girl took the first step past the security room and into the school, these teachers had already sensed it.

They originally thought that she might have walked in by mistake, but it was obvious that the other party had a strong tendency to infiltrate, and after being caught in the act, she even wanted to resist. This series of actions and the vague murderous aura emanating from the girl made the teachers feel a little uneasy.

Hesitate and lose

Moreover, this girl might not be human, so in terms of combat power index, the few of us are far from enough.

If you can't beat them, call for help. This is a fine old tradition of the magic academy.

Several teachers crushed a small gem on their waists at the same time, and the alarm sounded loudly in the school security center.

The girl frowned when she saw the teachers crush a gem at the same time. Although she didn't know what would happen next, she knew it would definitely be something bad for her.

Strike first to gain the upper hand

The body that had been stuck to the ground suddenly collapsed on the spot. This change caused the teachers to feel a surge in their sense of crisis! They quickly formed a circle, standing back to back and warning the surroundings.

However, right in front of a teacher, the space suddenly fluctuated, and then a sharp blade came chopping towards his head!

Magic shield!

puff!

Although the temporarily established magic shield had a certain blocking line, the knife came too fast and too suddenly. The blade encountered a little obstruction when it touched the magic shield, and then cut through the teacher's body unimpeded. Blood immediately spurted out from the wound.

"Watch out! Shield, open!"

At this time they knew that they had underestimated the enemy. They had originally regarded the opponent as having a relatively high combat power, but they did not expect the gap between the two sides to be so huge.

After the opponent made the move, he quickly hid in the surrounding space. The two teachers instantly erected a large and thick magic barrier, and then another teacher provided emergency treatment to the injured person.

Although the naked eye could not see where they were, they could still vaguely feel it from the surrounding aura. It was as if there were a pair of hunter's eyes staring at them like prey.

"Who is it? Hiding there sneaking around!"

A clear female voice came from the surroundings, and several teachers breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the voice.

The big names of the school began to appear.

Lilith the Chosen

The girl hiding in the surrounding space was startled when she saw Lilith. This woman gave her a very dangerous feeling. Looking at her through her eyes was like looking directly into a blazing fire.

Lilith keenly caught the gaze directed at her, drew out her staff and cast a fire explosion magic at that place.
