People are at the border, but they become the incarnation of the sun

"...Ah, you are back, my dear knight."

As soon as he stepped into the top floor of the magic tower, Lani, who was sitting on the chair, woke up from her sleep, raised her magic hat slightly and looked at him.

The little hands, which had nowhere to put, seemed to be expecting something, and they supported themselves on their legs with their fingers touching each other.

The other two were still lying quietly on my legs.

"You must have obtained the secret treasure of Noklongn, right? I can feel it even in my deep sleep."

"Yes, I did get it."

He nodded, fumbled in the leather bag, and knelt on one knee to respectfully present the hunting finger knife to Lani. "Thank you for fulfilling your mission."

"No need for that, my knight. This time it is all thanks to you. Thank you."

Lani took the hunting finger knife as if it were a treasure, and examined it carefully in her hand.

"Now, all the conditions are met. Now I just need to set off—

I will embark on a path that only I can walk, deep into the darkness... But before that... "

After putting away the finger knife, Lani suddenly raised her head and looked at him. Her eyes, like the starry sky, stared at him closely and asked seriously:

"Reinhardt... My knight, what reward do you desire?"

Even though Kalia has fallen into decline now, it still exists in the world thanks to the magic academy and is known to the world. Lani still hasn't given up the dignity of a princess.

Rewarding people based on their merits will never change for her.

And Reinhardt originally wanted to refuse.

Serving Lani and being loyal to the monarch are his ideals, both as a knight and as a person.

However, this time he really wanted to get something, and he needed Lani's approval.

"Your Highness, Lani..."

"Call me Lani."

Lani's face suddenly became serious and full of displeasure.

On such an important occasion, the conversation between the king and his subjects became like this. His status in Lani's heart has changed greatly.

"Okay, Lani."

"Ah."

Lun: "Actually, I hope to obtain the Great Rune from the amber egg that your father, Radagon, gave to Queen Laenara."

Originally, he didn't want this Great Rune of the Unborn, but after hearing what Marika said, he felt that he had to get it.

Moreover, the two ancient dragon lolis also told him that he needed to collect the fragments of the magic ring to improve his power.

"Is that all?"

For some reason, Lani looked at him with a strange expression. "...Didn't the witch Seren give you the Great Rune?"

"I don't quite understand what you mean, Lani."

What does this have to do with Teacher Se Lian?

"...Well, in that case, you should leave for the Rhea Lukalia School of Magic. There, Seren will tell you everything."

"As for Mother's Great Rune, in the name of Moon Princess Rani, I allow Knight Reinhardt of Kalia to take it."

"However, I hope you can treat my mother well. You don't need to take too much care of her. Just let her sleep soundly. Please don't let anyone disturb her again."

Although she was a doll, he still saw a flash of sadness in Lani's eyes.

Queen Lenarra is an indelible pain in her heart.

"...Well, it's time for me to start my journey—"

"Take my own path, deep into the darkness."

"...Blessings to you, my knight. May the full moon protect you and may you achieve your long-cherished wish."

After saying that, Lani's figure gradually turned into azure light particles and gradually dissipated like starlight.

All that remained was the empty Lani Magic Tower and the luxurious high chair with four books covered with white cloth.

"Ugh...."

Standing on the top floor of the deserted magic tower, he sighed in the same tone as Lani.

"Since I've agreed, I'll go to the Magic Academy."

As for the [Eternal City] Noxstella is not up to it yet. Lani's dark road is full of thorns, and Lani also needs time.

-------------------------------------

Lake Lienia.

Near this forest lake shrouded in thick fog, a tall mountain stands tall in the center of the lake.

There is a huge pavilion on it with a classical and elegant architectural style, like a Renaissance building.

That is the magic academy Rhea Lukalia, the academy once ruled by the Full Moon Queen Lenara.

The area now ruled by Seren.

"Oh, my apprentice, you are back."

"Ah, teacher, I'm back."

When Seren, who was sitting in the office handling official business, saw him return, he immediately stopped what he was doing and a smile spread across his face.

After saying goodbye to Mr. Iggy, he reunited with Melina and Ashmi and returned here.

However, a girl who appeared in the office at this time made him feel very strange.

She looks a bit childish, with short golden-orange hair. The most important thing is that she is wearing a maid outfit and holding a tray in her hand, responsible for serving the teacher's daily life.

"Teacher, where did you kidnap such a beautiful girl from?"

He walked to the sofa naturally, sat down, and asked jokingly.

"...Hehe, do you think you are my teacher? Wherever you go, you always bring back some girls."

Se Lian rolled his eyes at him and explained, "This is what I found inside the academy. She was being besieged by the group of lawbreakers entrenched in Mount Miguel, and I rescued her."

"The rebels? Are they attacking her?"

Reinhardt frowned suddenly when he heard this and turned to look at the girl.

"That's right. And since I'm researching the subject of life inheritance and just need a research subject, I decided to use her."

As soon as the words "life inheritance" were mentioned, the girl's face became a little unnatural. She held the tray to her chest, and a hint of fear appeared in her eyes.

The slender legs wrapped in white silk were also squeezed together, gently rubbing and trembling.

God knows what she went through with Se Lian. Judging from her appearance, it should be no problem for her to imagine a novel of hundreds of thousands of words.

Reinhardt looked at the girl with a bit of sympathy.

It's really pitiful that he fell into the hands of Teacher Se Lian.

Silently mourn for her for a few seconds.

However, he had no intention of speaking up for her. Although he didn't know why the girl was surrounded and attacked by that group of law breakers, since Teacher Seren was willing to accept her, he didn't need to say anything.

Besides, it is better for him to fall into the hands of the teacher than into the hands of those law breakers.

After all, teachers no longer kill people when they research topics.

"...Oh yeah, what's your name?"

Se Lian suddenly looked at the girl and asked.

He was stunned by this scene and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Se Lian, is this really okay for you? You can't even remember my name.

"...Sir, my name is Lenya..." the girl said weakly, "I used to be a servant of the Khosrow family."

"Oh....huh?!"

When he first heard the name, he didn't pay much attention to it, but when he heard the Khosraw family, he immediately reacted.

"You said you were a servant of the Khosrow family? Then what is your relationship with Diaros?"

"Ah, sir, do you know Lord Diaros? I used to be a follower of Lord Diaros."

"Oh~ I see..."

Hearing the other party's answer, his voice subconsciously lengthened and his eyes became meaningful.

"So, you are Diaros's childhood sweetheart."

"Yes sir, I grew up with Master Diaros!"

Lenia's expression became joyful, as if she were about to escape from suffering. She immediately bowed to him and said, "Sir, could you please tell Lord Diaros that I'm here? Or I can go with you to find Lord Diaros."

While bowing, Lenia raised her head slightly and looked at him with anticipation.

Oh wow, the cleavage is really full.

In a quick glance, he accidentally saw the dark valley.

However, Lenya's request was rejected.

"I'm sorry, but I can't do that. Diaros and I aren't that close. I only know his name. I don't have the responsibility or obligation to help you."

"Besides, if I take you with me, what if we're attacked by the lawbreakers? My life isn't a big deal, but if you die, I'll be held responsible. That Diaros guy is determined to fight me to the death."

He spread his hands regretfully, but then changed the subject: "However, as far as I know, Diaros is looking for you and will be coming to the Magic Academy soon."

"You can stay at the magic academy for a while now. It won't be too late to leave with him then."

"Don't worry about your safety. The academy is full of black knives, and with Teacher Se Lian by your side, you will be safe."

He could see that Serlian cherished and liked this experimental subject very much, so he might as well let Teacher Serlian study him for a few more days.

However, his words made Lenya despair, and her eyes lost some of their luster, as if she had been played a trick on herself.

It's true that Lenya knew it was safe here, but every time she was studied, she was manipulated in this way and that way, as if her chastity was about to be lost.

"Wow, Master Diaros, Lenia misses you so much... Lenia won't dare run around anymore... Come and save Lenia..."

Lenya cried helplessly in her heart.

But Se Lian, who was sitting at the table, was about to laugh.

Her apprentice is really full of evil intentions. With his strength, is he still afraid of the lawbreakers?

I guess there will be no problem in directly sweeping through the Volcano Mansion.

However, she could also see that Reinhardt was thinking about her as a teacher, and it was indeed not easy for her to find qualified experimental materials now.

It seems...the little girl from the Kalia royal family is not bad either.

She just couldn't remember the name.

Se Lian gradually put away the smile on his face and asked, "Well, my disciple, you must have something to ask me this time, right?"

"As expected of you, teacher. I do have something I want to ask you..."

At this point, his voice suddenly stopped.

Selin finally understood and said to Lenia, who was sobbing inwardly, "...You should leave first. My apprentice and I have something to discuss."

"Yes, Master Magician..."

Lenya bowed and left the office.

As for running away, Lenya had no such idea at all.

Putting aside the question of whether she could escape, after this experience she already understood how dangerous it was outside.

Although I have to cooperate with the magician in research every day in the academy, at least my safety is not a problem, and there are also many delicious foods and things I have never seen before.

Overall, her life was happy, at least it was a life she had never experienced while following Lord Diaros.

After she left, and seeing Lenia disappear through the door, Seren turned and continued, "Tell me, what could be so mysterious?"

"It's nothing, actually. It's just about Queen Lenarra's Great Rune. Lani told me to come to you."
