The Amber Sword: Act 4 wizard, Dragon and Empire


Outside the study is a promenade with a terrace. The stone pillars supporting the ceiling are covered with moss every other distance. The sunlight through the green shade of the oak leaves light spots on the wall and the floor. The terrace Several cricketed sparrows fell on the armrests. Brando taught Romaine well before opening the door. The birds fluttered their wings and flew to the light. He looked at the scene and closed the door with a backhand 'kā chā'. :

"Scarlett, get ready for the carriage, let's go to Port Griess."

But as soon as he spoke, Brando froze. In his memory, the girl with the long ponytail always leaned on the second stone pillar of the corridor according to one's own spear, and sometimes fed the spotted fins with bread crumbs. He has seen such scenes several times. The girl is very quiet, but beautiful like a character in a picture scroll.

Now, beside the second stone pillar, there is nothing left, only the mottled sunlight shining on the moss.

Brando sighed one breath.

He couldn't help but smile a bitterly.

And far away, the Miss Adviser holding a stack of parchment paper in the darkness at the end of the corridor also sighed one breath quietly. She saw one's own Lord Thane standing there showing something missing, and she understood. Her knuckles were a little whitish, and she almost accidentally pleated parchment paper, but those important documents in the territory since a period of time have not been seen by Lord Thane. She was taken aback by the one's own action, hurriedly let go, but The rolled parchment was accidentally scattered.

Amandina was there, bit his lower lip, and then bent down one by one to pick up the parchment again. absentmindedly touched the necklace in her neckline. It was a necklace that already lost pendant, but she seemed to feel that the pendant was still in place, and she pressed it in the empty place. But finally reacted, the girl looked at Brando in the distance with a complicated look, and retreated silently.

Brando stood in front of the study for several minutes before returning to God, as if from what time. He is all already used to the silent mountain people girl around him. He used to make fun of Scarlett and asked her how to get married in the future. However, one day, she was really gone, but he felt a little confused. stand up. "What's wrong ..." Brando couldn't help but press the one's own temple, "Brando, Brando, Scarlett cannot be around you forever. She also has one's own future."

But when I think about it, I feel a little bored. He shakes his head and temporarily loses the thought.

The Veronica group settled in the hostel of Port Griess. The carriage from Fortress Fir to Port Griess was only a half-day trip. Brando understands that this lady is not willing to stay in Fir City. one's own also considers it. After all, she is an Army Commander of the Empire, and it is not too close to a foreign Count, not to mention, not to mention that the nominally wanted criminal Grey Sword Saint Mephisto of the Empire still lives in the Brando's castle. It makes sense that she should stay away Make at least one gesture.

But Brando is really weird why Veronica wants to see him now, more than two weeks after arriving at Trentheim already. It stands to reason that she should have returned to the empire long ago, and her quest / mission here has come to an end, not to mention that she is also accompanied by the emperor's eldest son and the Swordbreaker Knight group.

He really wasn't sure what the female Army Commander adult thought, she didn't understand what she was worried about, the calm inside the empire. Except for some uneasiness on the border, she couldn't see what was going to happen.

With such doubts, walked through the promenade and walked down the stairs. Passing the outside hall, several Ciel's apprentices are arguing here about some issues related to Magic. -- Because Ciel's Wizard Tower was built in the castle, his apprentice also lives in the lower room of the castle. Fortunately, the world of wizard has strict rules Therefore, these apprentices did not bring too much trouble to the life in the castle. -- When several apprentices saw the Brando, they stood up respectfully to salute the young Lord Thane, and Brando nodded in response. These people were selected from the adventurers or the children of the local little noble. Most of them or the family behind them were grateful for this Lord Thane because of this opportunity. The true heritage of wizard is very rare in Vaunde. College The school wizard is mostly inherited from the line of Buga. But is the knowledge of Silver Lineage so easy to learn? Even in Kirrlutz, only Scholar Young Lady Shido is eligible for the favor of Silver Lineage. Correct is so inherited wizard has a very high social status in Aouine and Kirrlutz, far superior to those of the rivers and lakes Sorcerer.

Ciel is exactly the inheritance of Black Tower Wizard. Even if it is only a branch of Buga wizard, it is enough to be called a well-known source. It has the opportunity to become an apprentice of such a mentor. For these little noble in the backcountry It's like a pie falling from the sky, let alone those desperate and distressed adventurers, so it is not surprising that they have such an idea.

Amandina is also fancy about this. With the duty of a Adviser, she persuaded Brando to take this as an opportunity to win people's hearts and allocate scarce places to those who are truly loyal to him. For example, Red Copper Dragon Leto's The daughter, -- Su, relied on such a contact to tie all the reliable people to the chariots that shared his interests.

But Brando doesn't think so. In his eyes, this is not just a vanity market. These young apprentice wizard should be the future of Trentheim. Without the army of the wizard regiment, it will always be a third-rate army in Vaunde, not to mention Say Kirrlutzian and Wind Elf's coveted Air Ship team, each of which is operated by wizard. You can even say this outspokenly, wizard is the high-tech troop type of Vaunde. It costs a lot of money to cultivate one, but it is definitely worth it.

This is only the 1940s, Tablet War has not yet begun.

Certainly, some of Amandina ’s claims have her reason, not to mention that Ciel has mentioned that Su has quite excellent talents, so Brando has also adopted some parts. In fact, he himself is quite optimistic that there seems to be only one left in people ’s impression. Girl with wheaten healthy skin and fine twist braids. Her calmness in the Ampere Searl World War I was simply amazing. This is the most basic quality of wizard, but few people have done well. When Su was not wizard, he performed better than most wizard at this point. Outstanding, it can be seen that as long as she can feel the Laws line, there is bound to be a bright future.

As an additional benefit of this decision, as Miss Adviser said. Red Copper Dragon Leto is really grateful to him. The veteran who has experienced November War can be insulted in the face of life and death, but this daughter is his only weakness. He originally wanted to leave Su an industry, but he did not expect to encounter the Madara's invasion. Now Su has the opportunity to become wizard. Although not prominent in the future, at least he has nothing to worry about. The key is not to look at people's faces, which is especially satisfactory for Leto.

But there are also some negative effects. The guy secretly tried to inquire him several times and asked him if he was interested in his daughter. The guy thought he couldn't see his temptation. Brando felt that one's own IQ was serious. Disdain. On several occasions, he hurried the opponent back to Minteye.

Actually, this is not a case. It once annoyed him. For some reason, it seems that women in Vaunde are more likely to have Magic talent than men, although men wizard tend to become more real. Genius, like Ciel and Lockwood, but the female wizard base is greater than the male wizard. This is the truth. This directly led to the yin and yang decline of the Ciel. It was as if there were any masters and subordinates. It once caused people to suspect that this was actually a means of opening the harem of the Lord Thane, forget it/that's all.

Especially in the backcountry where Magic is not bright, the rumors are even more outrageous, but what makes him cry and laugh is that the little Thane and the little noble are still happy, and they keep pushing the so-called 'quite attractive' 'damsel, as to whether it is really pretty Brando is not yet evaluated, anyway, he already let Ciel brush back all those without Magic talent. But what made him a little depressed was that this incident became a laughing stock in his small circle. Both Medissa and Amandina used this incident to make fun of him more than once.

This is really a weakness of the main program, which makes the family members frightened.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help shaking his head, walking out of the arches of the hall, but suddenly frowned smelled the smell of roast meat. He stopped, turned around and asked, "What's this smell?"

The appearance of several Ciel's apprentices has changed, and they have become supportive.

"Ciel didn't teach you the technique of silence?" Brando Actually already guessed something. Could not help but asked angrily.

Sure enough, his voice just came to an end. One of them had a small round face with some cute freckles on the tip of his nose. It was said that the girl who was the younger daughter of the silversmith guild president in the city was scared and pale. He replied rudely: "Bo ... Lord Count, Mr. Shita will not let us say."

Sure enough, Brando shook his head, and even Aloz was taken away. This guy was even free. But this is a good thing for him. After all, Shita signed a contract with him. I don't want to care how ridiculous the contract is. If Shita is really taken back to Dragon Race, then he is not a big loser.

He waved his hand to signal to the little girls not to worry, then turned to follow the smell of the charcoal with the scent of meat, and didn't know what the guy was baking, only wishing he didn't give the castle to Point it up. Last time this guy secretly grilled meat at the sawmill, burned the sawmill to half, and made Little Romaine lose a lot of money. As a result, miss merchant was okay, but the housekeeper Amandina had a heartache and didn't sleep well for a few days.

He turned around a corner of the castle covered with vines, and he saw that Shita squatted behind a grape rack, secretly touch looked after a bonfire, an iron shelf on the fire, and several almost already on the shelf. The grilled prawns are holding bottle bottle cans and spreading the condiments on it. Needless to say, this set must have been stolen from the kitchen. This guy doesn't have much fighting power, but the ability to steal the chickens and dogs is one-on-one. I am afraid that even the Nightingale masters in Halflings have to give up in front of it.

If you think about it, under the eyelids of Veronica and Mephisto, you can unknowingly touch away the existence of a dozen carriages. It is not a simple figure.

Brando walked over and patted each other's shoulders, which scared Shita. He turned back, and a round face was covered with charcoal. It was hard to imagine this face when he saw this face. A dragon, because it looks no different from those bear children. Shita saw Brando, his face was scared, and he hurriedly called: "I didn't cut the grape racks for firewood. These things were not stolen from the kitchen. They lent them to me!"

"Very good," Brando sneered. The flower garden left by Grudin is now the baby of Amandina. Although he has never seen the noble Young Lady's furious look, he also understands that the more calm the person, the more terrible it is to start a fire . He couldn't help but pat the shoulder of Shita with great admiration: "You have the courage, Shita, do you know the Correct Amandina Young Lady responsible for daily life at Fortress Fir?"

"What's the matter then?" Shita froze. Unexpectedly, Brando did not even get angry, he felt a lot of confidence.

"Nothing," said Brando with a grin: "For example, the kitchen has arranged a dinner or a dinner or something, which is a matter of course. After all, there are too many people, and occasional negligence is possible. Don't say occasional. Even if this is the case for three or four consecutive days, it is not a big deal. "

Shita opened his mouth, his face changed. The little fat man looked at Brando with wide eyes, his face was red and white, and his forehead was full of sweat, as if he had never seen the dark side of this society.

"In fact, this is not the worst. It is said that some people have accidentally eaten what should not be eaten. You know that it is near Black Forest. There are all kinds of materials in the castle's warehouse. There are several kinds that are particularly effective for Colossal Dragon. . "

Shita almost didn't be scared to cry. This little fat dragon suddenly felt that this was completely possible. Besides, in his opinion, the Miss Adviser was overcast and ignorant to everyone, maybe already I don't like him so much, I want to get rid of him quickly. He almost shivered. Very reluctant to pick up a grilled shrimp from the charcoal fire. With a snot and a tear, he said to Brando: "Lord Thane, please don't expose me. I invite you to eat shrimp. After eating, we are a person on a boat."

"fuck me, don't be so obvious when you drag me into the water." Brando thought angrily, but he saw the frosted dragon's putty-clawed claws and shrimps covered with mustard. Feel familiar. He couldn't help asking, "Where did you get the shrimp?"

"The kitchen."

"No, your first sentence must not be the truth." Brando analyzed experience: "Have you ever been to Scippamira's room?"

The little fat man's eyes rolled around, shaking his head like a rattle.

Brando smiled angrily. The shrimps in Scippamira's room were the favorite of the Priest girl. Although he didn't know why she liked shrimp farming, as long as she watched her carefully holding the water tank to change the water every day, she knew how important this thing was to her. Now, these shrimps have become the Shita mid-course meal. Once and for all, Scippamira will not need to get up every morning to change the water.

It's just that someone or a dragon will pay a heavy price for it.

He glanced at Shita with pity, turned and walked away, joking, who knows what else will happen if he stays with this disaster star again. I didn't expect Shita to have a wink. It seems that already saw his irreversible fate from the look on Brando's face, and hurriedly wrapped all the shrimps in oil paper and chased them up, without speaking, as if to follow Brando to the ends of the earth.

"What are you doing?" Brando asked angrily.

Shita, while stuffing a grilled shrimp into his mouth, and sucked two fat fingers incidentally, with a muffled voice replied, "Lord Thane, are you going out?"

"You're quite smart," Brando sneered, "Knowing that you have escaped?"

"No, Lord Thane, I signed a contract with you isn't that so, and now I want to fulfill the contract and protect your thoughtfulness." Shita thought about it for a while, smash it, it's full of flowers: "It's very outside the castle Dangerous. "

"Dangerous fart!" Brando thought, if it is really not safe outside the city in the early half of the year, the security of Trentheim can be said to be the best Southern Territory, there are cavalry on the road, there is Troglodyte in the forest, no Room for monster and thieves existence. Besides, how could ordinary monster and thieves get him, this guy is obviously talking nonsense with his eyes open.

But he didn't bother to care about him either. The two walked towards the stables one by one. After passing the short rose bush that Mrs. Camille was taking care of, Brando seemed to suddenly think of it and asked: , Why did n’t Dragon Race send someone to catch you back? ”

He originally thought that Shita must be proud of mentioning this issue. After all, even Aloz can't escape the devil's claw, but he can continue to escape, which is a very beautiful thing. And without the constraints of little dragoness, he can obviously be more lawless, but did not expect that Shita blinked and blinked, looking a bit lost.

"What's wrong?" Brando froze slightly.

"That's Aloz willing to go back with them. In fact, we rarely attack each other. If she is here to stay, they will not force it," Shita pretended to answer a little carelessly: "But Aloz sister I still admit it is one of them, so I have to follow this Laws. "

Brando keenly captured the key point in this sentence: "You won't really be completely expelled from Dragon Race, will you?"

"Cut, what ’s good to stay in there, you know to collect some inexplicable things," Shita replied a little proudly: "They do n’t understand that food is the most important thing in the world. Collecting food is creature's instinct, how can gold silver's brilliant diamonds be precious? It doesn't take food to fill your stomach. "

"fuck me, your theory is very simple." Brando looked at this little fat dragon with a little funnyness and was pretending to be indifferent: "But for Colossal Dragon, he is keen to collect The food is indeed a bit too ... , it is too strange. In our legend, Colossal Dragon should be flamed above the mountains piled up by treasures, burning the adventurers who came to slay them. , creature like dragon, in our impression coexists with beauty and danger. "

"But if the legend Colossal Dragon is lying on a mountain of rice, if you imagine, then the viewing will be greatly reduced."

"This is prejudice!" Shita couldn't help jumping.
