King of Light

The fourth time Duke's Manor

Without the corresponding glory and wealth, how can you get used to these things since childhood? Even the Duchess herself can't imagine the days when she goes to do laundry and cook.

Nobles, there are more important things to do. You can't waste your limited energy on trivial things.

As the Duchess thought, she turned over the book at hand.

The maid gently helped her squeeze her shoulder. The Duchess leaned on the cushion and looked at it with a smile. Sometimes she drank a sip of turquoise fruit wine graceful, and the white snow fox collar wrapped around her cheek was spotless.

From the port of Bok to the imperial capital, it will take ten days to walk at such a speed, passing through five cities.

The carriage walked on the flat and public official road. Although it was a little shaky, the magnificent in the car and the meticulous service of the servants were enough to relieve the owner's fatigue.

Those soldiers rode on both sides of the war horse to escort them.

The flag of the Robert family fluttered in front of the team. Every time I went to a place, local garrison generals greeted me with people, greeted the Duchess and daughter, and presented the local specialties and their own wishes.

These garrisons couldn't help but show a sense of surprise when they saw Maglin in the second-class magician's robe in the convoy.

They are all whispering who the young man is.

Especially when I see that sometimes the cold and arrogant Grace even cares about Maglin. This ordinary attraction among young people and Grace's appreciation for Maglin have changed in the eyes of adults.

They began to doubt whether the handsome young magician was the sweetheart of the pearl of the duke's family.

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, it's time to know the taste of love.

So, they began to ask. The guards of the Royal Knights are not disgusted with this kind of gossip. There are even some guys who appreciate Maglin to guide this kind of thinking with a little prank.

They who spoiled Kreis can also see that Kreis is at least different from Maglin, while Maglin, a stupid little guy who only knows how to practice magic, turns a blind eye to the beauty of Kreis and just asks magic questions seriously every time.

Several times, they saw Maglin run to Kreis's tent during the break, and then they pricked up their ears curiously. As a result, this fool always asked questions that they didn't understand, but it had nothing to do with admiration.

The more so, the more happy they and the boring maids along the way are to see something.

So, leave a message quickly.

The military personnel in front of them are also more respectful and enthusiastic about the second-level magician Maiglin, which has surpassed their respect for the second-level magician.

Maglin was a little confused, but Orophile was silent.

Maglin can only politely show goodwill to others. After this pie was taken out, it made the local garrison generals who usually admire the figures in the Duke's Mansion feel that this young man was really knowledgeable.

No wonder he is already a second-level magician at such a young age. He is really ashamed to kill those pale-haired magic apprentices.

They never dreamed that Maglin was a magic idiot who laughed at everyone just a month ago.

The Duchess does not stop this kind of speculation that does not hurt her daughter's reputation. She is a thoughtful person, and she likes to see a strange person through some small things.

And Maglin's frankness, at a loss, fell into the eyes of the Duchess. The lady unexpectedly thought of her husband Robert, who was not amorous except for the charge. So when the Duchess saw Meglin, her eyes were also more gentle.

This poked the hornet's nest. Does your wife appreciate him so much?

Madam is stronger than the Duke in the house. The generals of the local garrison, which of the wives who came to flatter, are not dragons and phoenixes among people, and their eyes are poisonous and afraid of people?

Meglin suddenly became more popular.

Maglin went to Grace in distress: "Cris, can you talk to your wife? I don't think I can learn magic quietly if it goes on like this."

"Necessary socialization is still necessary." Kerris's old-fashioned education is a little younger than his own.

Maglin's head was as big as a bucket, but he didn't notice the smile in the girl's eyes.

The strong Cres has tested him many times along the way, but no matter what the magic problem is, Maiglin can always find some solutions after thinking about it. Under the guidance of the Elf King, his way of thinking is faster and more effective than the traditional way. While this excellence impressed Kryce, he was also a little jealous.

As a very good young man, I suddenly met another excellent young man, and this kind of comparison always exists.

Now that Maglin is so haunted by those vulgar guys, Keres is very happy. I finally saw that this always serious guy was sloofed.

Thinking of this, Cris simply encouraged those guys who accompanied him to annoy him.

As for why are they like this? Young girls are much more careful than Maglin, and she naturally has feelings. However, Maglin's constant confusion and frankness have calmed down her at first.

Once a girl calculates a person, she often only sees what she wants in front of them.

So, Kryce put down the fact that he and McGrin were actually very simple, and began to change his attitude. He deliberately behaved affectionately to McGlin from time to prove this rumor.

Then pray behind his back to annoy Maglin. It's good for him to cry, hehe.

"Maygreen, what do you like to eat?" Keres stretched out his head loudly to ask Maigreen in the carriage behind him, and at the same time sent a sweet smile.

The ladies sitting in the carriage exchanged ambiguous eyes with each other. The Duchess also smiled a little. Naturally, she knew what her daughter was doing. In those years, she also bullied honest men like this.

Well, the second-level magician is very talented. In time, he may not be promising. Besides, even if there can't be such a richness as the Duke's Mansion, isn't the Duke's Mansion there? Maybe it's good to have two young people with similar interests together?

The Duchess seems to have begun to change with the influence of gossipers along the way.

"Meglin, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

"Meglin, do you drink fruit wine?"

"Meglin..."

So there are often crisp and smiling greetings from girls in the team. Maglin found himself really annoyed. Every time when Grace called him, the maids and the bodyguards showed a strange smile.

Of course, there are also those husbands and generals who accompany them.

Every time Maglin answered awkwardly, he said no, casually, and in the end, he was simply silent.

So Cries asked worriedly, "Maygreen, can you fall asleep when I talk to you?"

There was finally a burst of laughter in the team. Simple Kreis looked at McGleelyn proudly and almost fell under the car. McGrin was almost annoyed by her, but McGlin didn't understand. The more he avoided girls, the more fun he would be. In fact, if he took the opportunity to paste it, maybe Keres would be bored soon.

Orofil should have understood these truths, but he was silent.

Or he is also happy to see Maglin and Grace develop in a good way. The son-in-law of the Duke's Mansion, the son-in-law of the first minister of the Rose Empire, and the identity of a magician, which is very helpful for the rejuvenation of the royal family.

Or so.

Anyway, just two days after the Shuilong incident, Eurofield didn't say anything.

So only the inexperienced Maglin was repeatedly teased by Grace.

In the end, Kreis simply sat in Maglin's carriage sometimes, but when she faced Maglin alone, she was honest. She just studied magic with Maglin, so that Maglin really didn't want her to leave her carriage.

So Maglin said, "Cris."

"What?"

McGreen stopped talking. He didn't think it was very good to speak ill of others in person. Of course, it was even worse to speak ill of others behind their backs.

He thought about it and commented, "Actually, Kless, you are really good when you discuss magic."

The stupid guy didn't know how to speak. Keres was raised by him, and the pretty girl asked dissatisfiedly, "What do you mean?"

"I, er, I think you seem to be two people in my carriage and the carriage in front of you. But I prefer you to always be like this. You know, I'm a quiet person.

This idiot.

This is what the bodyguards on one side scolded him in their hearts.

Sure enough, Miss Grace was angry: "Do you mean I'm bothering you? I'm really sorry, the master who learned the water dragon skill by himself.

"No, no, Grace, don't be angry. I just don't like the way those ladies look at me. You should know that every time you call me and care about me, they always smile so strangely, which really makes me feel uncomfortable. In fact, I am very grateful to the Duchess and you. You know my past situation. If it weren't for your help and care, I might still be living in Clyde College.

Maglin seems to think about his past days and his mind.

His tone became low, but with a little sincerity from the bottom of his heart, he said sincerely to the quiet girl, "Cris, I never dreamed that I could communicate magic, let alone that I could become a respectable court magician. I still remember the past. In those days, since we met, I was moved by the encouragement and care of the Duchess and your care. I'm sorry just now. I really shouldn't have said that. You know I'm not very good at communicating with people, Crays, I'm sorry.

"Kris, what's wrong with you? Madam, Grace cried. I, I didn't do anything.

This idiot.

The bodyguards scolded Megling, a fool who can't pick up girls, stupid boy, in their hearts. Do you know that you have touched the heart of the Duke Pearl. Can your hand only set fireball?

The girl's shaking shoulder is in front of you. The girl's tears do not necessarily mean uncomfortable. Maybe it's a sign of falling. You should stretch out your hand and comfort her. Even if you don't know what you are talking about now, just talk to her. Just like what I just said. Instead of calling someone's mother at this critical moment.

St. John, how can there be such a stupid second-level magician?

The carriage in front had stopped, and the Duchess was asking unexpectedly, while Cris suddenly blushed and said loudly, "Who cried?"

After saying that, he jumped out of the carriage and ran to the front.

The idiot-like Maglin's eyes widened, and he muttered to himself, "But I saw it. Is my eyes dazzled?"

"I didn't cry. It was the wind that blew my eyes.

There was a response from Keres to his mother, and then the Duchess ordered the convoy to move on.

From this moment, Grace has never come to the back, and she has never called Maglin, Maglin's. She stopped talking to Maglin.

"What did I do wrong?" Maglin gave up the magic question, and he asked Europa repeatedly.

After getting no answer, he tried to communicate with the maids. The distressed lady also looked cold when she met the stupid donkey's maids and refused to answer such a heinous stupid question.

There is no one to ask about Maglin. He can only eat on time, rest, or look at the back window of the car in front of him.

Sometimes, he seems to see someone looking back, but he can't tell whether the beautiful eyes are Madame's or Grace's. They are so similar.

So poor Maglin could only squeeze out some a guilty smile at the back window of the car, although he really didn't know what was wrong.

This is how the itinerary has arrived for a few days.

The speed is slowly slowing down.

And there was a large sound of horses' hoofs in front of him.

It seems that the imperial capital is about to arrive, but before entering the imperial capital, the duchess first entered the manor of the duke's house on the outskirts of the imperial capital. Every nobleman has his own manor in the suburbs, not to mention a rich family like Duke Robert.

And it has been 300 years since Chengping in the Rose Empire.

The imperial capital is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the land is fertile.

Duke Robert's manor is located at the foot of Yalu Mountain, 30 miles northeast of the empire.

Legend has it that when the capital was built, a beautiful stag rushed to the emperor's horse, so this hill was called Yalu Mountain, and the alias of the imperial capital was Lucheng.

Duke Robert's manor occupies ten miles.

On the outskirts of the imperial capital, covering an area of ten miles is a symbol of true identity.

After all, it is a military family.

The manor has no tacky walls, only a watchtower, a flat square, an artificial moat, and an inner fort.

The whole manor seems to be a city outside the city.

Although the scale is not very large, the momentum is shocking!

The terrain near the imperial capital is flat, but only a hill rises in the northeast corner.

And the inner castle of Duke Robert's manor is located on Yalu Mountain. From the square in front of the manor, the inner castle rises from the mountain and is nearly ten meters higher than the surroundings.

The strong fortress is made of huge bluestone. In the sun, the huge emblem of the Robert family shines above the gate of the inner castle. The duke flag of the triangular sword shield fluttered on the top of the sharp fortress on the top of the mountain.

From the height of the castle, you can overlook the whole deer city.

This is also an important part of the imperial capital defense system. His Majesty the founding emperor gave this place to the Robert family, the guardian of the empire and the royal family, where 3,000 troops are stationed all year round.

The manor and the imperial capital have become the trend of horns and echo each other.

Every night, according to the tradition of that year, the Robert family blew the horn at the imperial capital at the moment when the sun went down to inform His Majesty that he existed.

The horn of Robert Manor has also become a signal for the end of a day in the imperial capital.

Such a huge and majestic castle, such a great family.

Listening to the sound of the horses' hoofs, he looked up at the flag of the Robert family, and watched dozens of horses galloping in front of him. Near the car, the knights neatly pulled up the reins, and the war horses immediately stood up.

When the horses' hoofs fell heavily, the knights did not move at all.

McGrim saw that the knights immediately turned their right hand to their left chest. At the same time, he bowed slightly and said to Mrs. Robert, "Welcome home, madam."

Maglin couldn't see the Duchess's behavior. He only saw that the knights immediately divided into two sides, integrated into the previous escort team, sandwiched on both sides of the train, and then the motorcade moved.

Go to the castle.

Maglin was silent, just silently looking at the castle getting closer and closer, and the closer he got, the more he felt his majesty. The carriage passed the big scary square, and the wheels grunted gently on the lapis lazuli. There was almost no shaking in the car, and then the convoy drove onto the huge suspension bridge.

The knights were on guard at both ends of the bridge.

In this way, Maiglin followed the carriage into a dark place, which was the huge arch of the castle. Only when he approached did he know that this inconspicuous arch could accommodate three carriages at the same time.

After the motorcade went inward and entered the castle, a bluestone road appeared.

And inside the castle, there is actually a square. Behind the square, there is an inner door. Crossed the square along the straight stone road, and after another door, a row of stone houses appeared.

Looking at the clothes hanging outside, Maglin estimated that it was the residence of the servants, but even the residence of the servants, or the soldiers, was much better than that of ordinary people on the island of Bleddy. There is a small garden or vegetable field in front of almost every stone house, and the cobblestone path hovers in it, connecting every house.

The motorcade went back again, and a slope appeared. Another wall passed by.

The carriage got on a platform. At the sign of the maids, Maglin got off the carriage and stepped on the ground. He looked carefully and found that there were long corridors on both sides of the platform. There were no more than 100 military horses on both sides in the corridor, and there were strong grooms taking care of them, and between the carriage corridors, there was another one A piece of stone house.

The doors are open, and some young people dressed as soldiers are coming in and out.

After the platform, a step up. There is also a gate leading to the top. Maglin looked at the extremely large-scale manor castle, and he looked back at the way he came.
