Throne of Magical Arcana

Chapter 151 Prelude to the Feast

On the streets of Korser City, Lucian, along with Simon, Joanna, and Betty, slowly walked towards the city gate, and a high-flying eagle flew over the sky, with a parcel tied to its back and a chest hanging Big basket with fresh meat.

"Mr. Evans, do you really want to leave Korser City today?" Betty looked at Lucien with regret on her face. If Lucien recognized her identity, she still had a little doubt. In "Moonlight", the musicians of Kose City tried to play the next two movements. She completely believed that the beautiful, elegant, powerful and gentle Mr. Evans in front of her was her favorite musician and the one she often dreamed of. Prince of Music.

Because of the various complicated piano skills, or the beautiful melody of brisk shortness or storms, and the fiery emotions, the strong determination, all show the unique style of Mr. Evans, it is another one without doubt. Very good piano sonata that can impress anyone.

Lucien had seen the sign of the magic circle in the city of Kose in the previous wandering. Due to Hunt ’s accidental death, the invitation was postponed for three days, and the location was unchanged. Therefore, he smiled slightly: "I still have important things to go. , Ca n’t stop in Korser City, and ca n’t hold a concert. Betty, you have a good knight training, if we can become real knights, maybe we can still meet in Aalto. If so, I will give you in private Play a song. "

"Really?" Betty was pleasantly surprised. This was a musician and a small agreement that she admired, so she was full of motivation and nodded fiercely, "I will definitely train hard!"

In Betty's fist fisting, Joanna and Simon whispered together: "Thank you Mr. Evans for inspiring Betty."

"It's just a small gift." Lucien turned around. "This journey with you is a thing worth remembering. Well, I'm leaving Kessel City."

Seeing Lucien's back disappear in the afternoon sunlight, Simon did not wonder why he dared to rush on his own, nor was it strange that it was close to the evening, he still insisted on starting.According to him, the reason why he hired the Adventurer Squad was because he was lazy and liked to be quiet, and needed help from others to do chores, but now he has an emergency due to the encounter with the Baron Habeiro Castle and is busy rushing, naturally relying on toughness Strength across the mountains.

"In retrospect, these eleven days are really like dreams." Betty muttered to himself, clenching his fists, full of motivation.

Simon and Joanna nodded in agreement, then squeezed Quintal, and began to think about which nobleman to look for to guide regular knight training.

Korser City Musicians Association Hall.

Casper stood in front of the counter and looked at the place where Lucien wrote the letter just now: "Chrissy, we might as well replace this with steel products, and then set up a statue of Mr. Evans, um, when writing the score It looks like that. Then, it ’s here that the talented musician Lucien Evans wrote the famous piano sonata "Moonlight." There should be many noble lords to be guests? "

After Lucien refused the invitation to the concert and stay as a guest, he had other inspirations.

"Yeah ..." Kris still had a dreamy smile, staring blankly at the front, not even hearing what Caspar was saying.

Casper didn't mind either, touching his chin, frowning and thinking, discussing with Chris Bull's head.

At this time, a member of the Musicians Association returned from outside: "Director Caspar, I have arranged Mr. Wise to live in the villa. What else do you have to tell me?"

"Nothing, don't disturb me. Kris, what do you think of adding an oil portrait of Mr. Evans in the lobby?" Caspar waved his hand carelessly.

…………

On the third Monday of July, a silver moon hung high in the sky, shining bright and cold light.

Lucien, bathed in moonlight, traversing mountains and forests at a rapid speed, has been able to see the beautiful mirror-like lake outside the Castle of Karendia.

For more than ten days, Lucien has been traveling alone and strangely, so that no one can grasp his whereabouts. Fortunately, the mountainous principality of Djibouti is often the wrong way to go and get lost in the mountains. Therefore, Lucien can now come to Karendia Castle without any fear of being exposed.

Of course, the professor and musician Lucien Evans appeared in the Principality of Djibouti almost at the same time, and always made people who know know a subtle association, but it is still a very bold imagination to handle it directly as a person, because of the reasons that can be explained a lot of.

The castle is still the same as Lucien saw last time, with a lot of claw-like spires, and the dark appearance is always so palpable.

On the grass outside the gate, there were already a lot of mysterious people in black hooded robes waiting there. Lucien glanced over and thought that at least three or four hundred people.

Several of these mysterious people are very special, wearing various magical robes, not covering their faces with a hood, and showing their looks in a fair and honest manner.They have men and women. Their common characteristic is that they are sullen and look stiff, and they form a loose circle with 19 other black-robed people, chatting on their own.The others around are far away, leaving a clear distance, as if afraid of them.

"They should be formal magicians. They used the" masking technique "to change their appearance." Lucian, who is also a formal magician, quickly judged the reason. "But if you encounter mental power or higher will than you. For the two-level strongmen, the "cover-up technique" will be seen directly. In addition, the more than ten black robe who should also be formal magicians are not used. It seems that several of them are likely to be mid-level magicians, and do not worry about high-level strongmen The following people see through their disguise. "Lucien himself also dared not use cloaking.

Having made it clear that the twenty-three were official magicians, Lucian thought with a little surprise: "There are so many magicians in the entire Wilfried leader? Maybe someone else hasn't come yet?"

The original Wilfried collar includes two principalities in the central and southern parts of the mainland, and one berth. The area is much larger than the Principality of Valorit. The total number of knights is estimated to be three or four hundred, but there are only twenty or so magicians. .

Without concealing his figure, Lucien came out of the dark shadows and walked towards the gate of the Kalundia Castle, attracting many black robe men to look back.

Perhaps it is because there is no obvious sign on the body that makes people unable to judge whether they are familiar, and they slowly turn around and talk to their companions around them, ignoring this strange guy, anyway, many people who come today do not know.

The twenty or so magicians glanced at Lucien and discussed in a low voice.

Lucien slowly walked to the four magic apprentices, looking around calmly, while listening to their conversation.

In a conversation full of words such as "corpse", "eyeball", "blame", and "dead soul", a magic apprentice who was obviously too fat to hold his black robe tightly noticed the quiet feaster beside him , Holding the idea that may exchange materials, etc. greeted: "Hello, we are magic apprentices from the southern mountains of the Principality of Djibouti. What country are you from? What do you call you?"

"I'm from Kazan, you can call me code-name 'Professor'." Lucien replied with multiple sets of intelligence.

Kazan is the country opposite Longya Town.

"Oh, it turned out to be a guest in Kazan. You can call me 'fat'." Obese magic apprentices and his companions obviously haven't heard the nickname "Professor", "they are 'stone spots', 'bread' and 'Red wine'. "

Lucian glanced at the "Fat Man", a little suspicious that his obesity was disguised: "I was attending such a banquet for the first time, I didn't expect to gather so many magicians and magic apprentices, I don't know how many did not come ? "

The short and sturdy "bread" whispered: "Just now I heard the master magician who brought us here said that this is probably the vast majority of magicians and magic apprentices in the three nearby countries. Only study alone or study in small circles , A small part that has not been exposed to the big environment and no one is familiar has not come. "

"Master Magician ..." Lucian was startled, and did not expect that there would be so few remaining magic apprentices in the former Wilfried empire. Only in the territory of the Viscount Stanley of Kose City, there are people who have the strength of knights to serve. It may be close to a thousand.

"There are adults of magicians." "Fat Man" quietly pointed at the twenty or so magicians, and said in awe and longing.

The word apprentice even in today's Aalto means low status, in exchange for the opportunity to learn for the loss of freedom for years to come.The two words of magic apprentices inherited from the dark ages hundreds of years ago further show that they have an abyss-like gap with formal wizards, regardless of strength or status.Even in the eyes of some crazy ancient magicians, apprentices are often synonymous with materials and experiments.

And here alone, the ratio of apprentices to magicians is close to twenty to one.

"The one who brought us over ..."

The fat man's voice shuddered suddenly, because he saw the twenty or so magicians quickly separated without warning, surrounded himself and others, and was terrified with trembling.

The old man with gray hair and a thin face like a mummy pointed at Lucien with a long magic wand made of white bones: "This friend, who are you? You better confess, Because we have never seen you. "

Lucian didn't expect to be surrounded by local magicians when he first came, completely beyond his expectations: "How did they distinguish?"

Soon, Lucien understood that this should be due to the organizational form of the death feast.

When Viscount Karendia received a request from a visitor from the Continental Magic Council, he probably summoned a magician he felt he could trust to draw up a list to ensure that people without churches would come in.The list prepared by the magicians must be someone who is familiar with the circle, so there is no doubt that the magician does not know who he is.(To be continued.
