Chapter 83 Talk Banquet
Master Roland believed that his choice was wrong and went to Shaoko to discuss the matter.
Although Shaoko was surprised, he tried hard to prevent his expression from changing because of surprise. "Master Roland, how do you know about this? No one has ever said that I feel that yesterday's battle was not fierce at all, why did death appear?"
Master Roland did not find the result he wanted on Shaoko's face. "Mage Snow Night, I think you still don't understand the rest of the tasks of our position." Master Roland hesitated for a moment and told Shaoko the news he had just obtained. "I didn't sleep last night, but talked to the high-level mages for a while. They told me that the second-level mage today was suddenly attacked by the enemy while patrolling yesterday afternoon."
Shaoko frowned and said, "Master Roland, but does this have anything to do with us?" Shaoko didn't understand what Master Roland meant.
"Master Snow Night, after we serve here for a year, we will lead the soldiers out of the protection of the city wall like that mage, and go to the wilderness to fight against those hostile soldiers. If this happens..." Master Roland said as he shook his head, looking like he could not imagine the future.
Shaoko closed his cloak and looked at Master Roland, "Master Roland, are you leaving the army like this? Go and be a free mage who belongs to the Mage Union or the Mage Corps?"
Master Roland suddenly turned red due to misunderstandings, and stood up excitedly and said, "Master Xueye, since I have become a military mage, I will never get rid of this title. Even if it is dangerous, I will not give up this title."
Master Roland's hand holding the staff trembled slightly, "Mage Xueye, I just want to change another position in the army, not outside the army." As he said that, as if he wanted to drive away Shaoko's misunderstanding, he waved the staff in his hand to express his dissatisfaction.
Shaoke smiled bitterly, stood up quickly, signaling the excited mage Roland to sit down, and then he felt relieved secretly.
After taking a sip of red wine, Mage Roland calmed down and said, "Yesterday, those mages who had range attack spells, under the protection of teams of high-level warriors, easily hid in a stone tower that was much stronger than the stone tower we were staying. For one night, they did not release a spell. I heard that the famous mages even conducted a small magic experiment inside."
Master Roland's dissatisfaction was easily heard of Shao Ke, but he didn't know how to persuade the mages who thought of using range attack spells.
Shaoko's meditation brought some joy to Master Roland. He thought Shaoko was also moved. "Master Xueye, let's go together. I heard that you have mastered two small-scale attack spells. I don't think they can refuse this reasonable request." As he said that, he put on a messy robe and filled the red wine in the wine glass.
"No, Master Roland." Shaoke refused the other party's proposal without hesitation. "I don't want to change it after making a choice." Shaoke tightened the staff in his hand.
Master Roland wondered, "Master Xueye, why don't you go with us?"
Shaoko frowned: "Master Roland, I joined the army because I want to change my position to be a real combat mage in the future. I don't want to always hide in one place, and there are still those soldiers protecting me." Shaoko paused for a moment, "What's more, I still have a year to adapt to the battlefield life here. I don't think anything too bad will happen."
Master Roland looked at Shaoko who was in front of him and said a little uneasy: "Master Xueye, the other mages have moved to the position of the release range spell last night. I have gone too. You are the only one who has not changed it!" He said that he was ashamed of not telling the other party the news in time.
Shaoke said to Master Roland: "Master Roland, you go out first. I need to be quiet for a while. I can make a good decision for myself." Shaoke waved his hand and signaled Master Roland to leave here first.
The departure of Master Roland made Shaoko quickly calm down and complete the matter of recording the war yesterday. He did not consider the things that Master Roland said in the end, because he felt that he had to move towards a selected target without hesitation.
After finishing all this, Shaoke still had a lot of work to do, and he had to write the letter first because he had promised the other party to contact them.
The first thing I completed was to write to Dr. Ino Swan who was still in the Mist Forest. Shaoko simply described his new situation here and told the other party the detailed address. Finally, he asked Dr. Ino what plans he had after leaving the Mist Forest and whether he could help.
When the mage and Loki wrote a letter, Shaoke hesitated for a while before writing. He told the two mages what happened on the road and after he arrived here. Finally, he mentioned that he had accepted the Blizzard Legion's agreement in the letter and wrote: "It turns out that I have also embarked on what I hated before, but the service objects are different." After writing this, Shaoke didn't know what he was writing. Finally, he hoped that the two mages would bless him, and attached a small box of third-level medicines given to him by the Blizzard Legion, hoping that these could help the two mages.
The letter from the female mage Francis Walton is best written. Shaoko only told the other party about the matter here in a little detail. However, after hesitating about signing an agreement with the Blizzard Legion, Shaoko decided to tell the other party after being promoted to a third-level mage.
After doing all this, Shaoke hesitated for a moment, and finally mentioned his longing for her in the letter from the female mage, and said that he would be promoted as soon as possible to find the other party.
After finishing these things, it was already noon. When Shaoke was looking at the paper that the old mage gave to record the precautions on the battlefield, the soldiers outside knocked on the door and disturbed him, "Master, the banquet is about to begin, please prepare early."
After sending the soldier away, Shaoke found that some mages outside were walking towards the tent where they were having their meals. It seemed that the banquet was about to be held there.
After looking at himself in front of the mirror, Shaoke found that he was thinner than before, with his eye sockets sunken, his face pale and dry, his lips were a little dry, and only his long black hair and his unturned eyes still remained the same. He closed his cloak hard and tried his best to cover himself up. Then, Shaoke followed the other mages toward the dining tent with his staff.
After meeting Master Roland and several other mages who had been there on the way, Shaoke was interested in talking, but in the end he canceled the idea. However, after Master Roland saw Shaoke, he whispered a few words to his companions, and quickly rushed forward and said, "Master Xueye, have you made up your mind to change your position?"
Shaoke looked at the hopeful mage Roland and said, "No, Master Roland, I don't want to go to the range casting place, thank you for your kindness." Shaoke looked at the handsome and healthy mage Roland in front of him and looked at him carefully with some jealousy, then quickly turned his head to observe the surrounding environment and other mages.
Although Master Roland was a little disappointed, he believed that he had made efforts to stay away from danger with his companion who had just met. Therefore, although he was disappointed that his efforts were useless, he still respected the choice of the mage in front of him. After all, he had no right to force Shaoke to do anything.
"Well! Master Xueye, I respect your choice. If you feel that it is not going well there, you can still change your position, but it cannot last more than three months. This is the rule set by the seventh-level old mage. It is said that no mage disobeys this order." Master Roland tried hard to observe Shao Keyin's face under the cloak and said: "Master Xueye, don't rush to increase your magic and mental power. If the increase is too fast, the already weak body will continue to weaken. This kind of damage is difficult to recover. Haven't you taken the physical enhancement drugs issued by the military?"
Shaoke shook his head. He took enough drugs to strengthen his physique every day, but how could those drugs for second-level mages compare to third-level drugs? However, those second-level drugs still play a certain role, otherwise Shaoke would not know how bad his body would deteriorate.
"Master Roland, thank you for your reminder. I have been busy increasing my mental power and magic power these days, but I have ignored this issue." Shaoke was a little afraid to look at this mage who cared about him kindly because he deceived the other party.
Master Roland smiled, "Master Xueye, I think no matter what, your actions to increase your magic and mental power should be reduced in moderation, otherwise your body will not be able to resist such increasing invasion." After saying that, he pointed to the tent in front, looked at the companions behind, and signaled him to say goodbye to accompany the other companions.
When Shaoko arrived at the camp where he served as a banquet, he found that there were enough tables and chairs inside, and there were enough exquisite food on the snow-white tablecloths. The small buckets of various wines were placed on the table at will for the wizards to choose freely, because no servant came here to serve.
Shaoke chose an inconspicuous corner and sat there. He casually opened a small bucket of wine and then slowly tasted it.
The soldiers kept adding various pastries and small food to the already-placed dining table for the wizards to eat.
When these soldiers left, a middle-aged mage stood in the center, and the black robe clearly showed that he was a fifth-level mage. "My masters, I want to bless the young mages who have just arrived, and I hope they have good luck like you." After saying that, he raised his wine glass and drank it all, he signaled the mages to do whatever they wanted, and then left in a hurry.
――――The chapter I apologized yesterday will be slowly added in a few days, thank you!
Chapter completed!
