Chapter 62 Waiting
The officer secretly glanced at Shaoke and said, "Dear Master, if the female mage is related to the mage union, as long as the identity of the military mage is eliminated here, he will directly return to the mage union. The mage group of the military headquarters cannot mobilize them at all."
Shaoke sighed and said with relief: "Oh!" After saying that, he stopped talking. He didn't know if the female mage would come here to report, but according to the agreement between them, the female mage would come here today, so Shaoke decided to wait here, "Urfat, will I be waiting for someone here interfere with your work?"
The officer shook his head quickly and said, "Dear Master, it will not hinder my work. You should go to this room to rest for a while. I will let the soldiers pay attention to you."
Shaoko shook his head and rejected his proposal, "I'm fine here, I don't have to bother you."
Although the officer heard Shaoke say this, he still temporarily retreated and asked the soldiers to help and pay attention. After all, this can show his concern for the mages.
The officer brought a chair to Shaoke, "Dear Master, just sit here and wait! After all, it's too tiring to stand." Shaoke once again rejected the other party's kindness and apologized: "Urfat, go and do your business! You don't need to take care of me, or the commander will blame you when you see you."
"Well! Dear Master, Master Mage." The officer saluted again and asked nervously: "Have you obeyed the order of the military headquarters? The robe is black?"
Shaoke was stunned, and carefully looked at the officer who became a little nervous and said, "Yes, is there any problem?"
After hearing Shaoke's affirmative answer, the officer quickly took out a few gold coins from his arms and handed them over and said in panic: "Dear Master, I don't know that you are a mage directly under the military headquarters. Please forgive me, I think..." The officer lowered his head, and he felt very ashamed of taking the money from the mage in front of him.
Shaoko smiled and gently pushed his hand back and said, "Urfat, I have never taken back what I gave. Do you want to insult me like this?" After thinking a little, he continued, "Do you think I belong to the Mage Group?"
The officer looked up at Shaoke and said uncomfortably: "Dear Master, I have never insulted you. Yes, at first I thought you were a mage of the mage group, so I took your money."
After Shaoke asked the officer in front of him to collect the money again, he began to ask the other party about the matter between the military headquarters. He wanted to know why the military headquarters had a conflict with these soldiers, and what were the mages directly affiliated to the military headquarters and the mages affiliated to the mages.
The officer then explained to Shaoke in detail. Shaoke waited for the arrival of the female mage while listening to these internal conflicts within the military. Anyway, it would be no harm to listen more, and he could also pass the time.
While the two were talking, a frivolous voice suddenly came in, "Ha! Isn't this the janitor? Why? This is the unlucky guy who came to see the gate."
Shaoke, who had been paying attention to the door, had already discovered the owner of the voice. It turned out that five or six mages in gray robes came in from the door and came directly towards them and said such rude words.
The officer dared to say something, but Shaoke gently stopped him. He looked at the mages and saw that the collars of their robes were all embroidered with the symbol of the second-level mage. So he stepped forward and asked, "Aren't you mages? Why don't you know the minimum etiquette? Didn't your mentor teach you how to deal with mages of the same level?"
The mage who just spoke was also a young mage. The other party curled his lips and glanced at Shaoke and said, "Are you the mage who just came yesterday? Why? He was assigned to this position by that rigid old man so soon? It's not bad!"
Shaoko turned his head and asked the officer in a low voice, "Is it allowed to do it here?"
The officer shook his head worriedly and said, "No action is allowed, but I am worried that the other party will fight you outside. He has been here for nearly a year." After the officer implicitly told Shaoke how strong the other party was, he planned to go forward and talk to the mage, but Shaoke stopped the other party again. He knew what the officer was going to say, but he didn't want to bow to these mages of the same level because they were different from each other's factions.
Shaoko turned the staff in his hand and asked the officer loudly again, "Urfat, what will happen if he takes action here?"
The officer was thinking about how to solve this problem. Shaoke's words made his eyes lit up and replied: "Dear Master, your spells will be released before they can be released, and high-level mages will come out to stop it."
After hearing the officer's words, Shaoke began to chant spells without hesitation. A basin-sized fireball soon appeared in front of his staff under the nervous expressions of the mages. The other mage of the other party also planned to release the spell, but was stopped by his companions. One reason was that if the spell was released here, the advanced mages would give them the most severe punishment. And they believed that the other party's fireball would be defeated by the advanced mages soon.
When the "Fireball Technique" had been gathered, Shaoke still did not notice any advanced mages. The mages watched Shaoke control the fireball and did not dare to release it at all, so they laughed and said, "Why, bring the flame to keep warm?"
Just as they were laughing, Shaoko controlled the fireball and rushed over with the other party's frightened expression.
The fireball did not explode in front of the mages, but when it was less than half the distance from the mages, a small fireball suddenly appeared in front of the big fireball and then quickly merged into it. This was Shaoke's feeling that the spell he released was no longer under his control.
The fireball that fused the small fireball slowly flew to a spire next to it under the control of an unknown spellcaster and disappeared. At this time, a middle-aged man's voice came down from the spire, "The mage who released the spell, immediately leave here and find your commander to explain this matter; you guys, go back to your own room immediately, and be troubled by the mage group, and you go and stand on the city wall."
Shaoke closed his cloak, glanced at the pale-faced mages, said goodbye to the officer, asking the other party to help him see if there was a female mage coming, and told him his name.
When Shaoko knocked on the tall wooden door again, the officer came to open the door for him. Although the officer was a little surprised, he still politely invited him in.
When the old officer saw Shaoko coming in, he waved his hand to stop the officers who were arguing, pointed to the position in the morning and said, "Sit down, what's the matter?"
After Shaoke performed the etiquette, he sat down and described the whole story of what had just happened, "Sir, I'm sorry." After that, he stood up and waited for the old officer's punishment.
The old officer was stunned for a moment, laughed loudly, and the officers who stopped arguing also laughed. Seeing these officers laughing indifferently, Shaoke relaxed his heart, which had been holding on. It seemed that this was not a big problem.
The old officer touched his gray hair and sighed: "Master Xueye, this is not a big problem at all, um! This is the case, you need to copy the spells, so I will punish you to stay in the library for a month and not come out! I will arrange for someone to send you the essentials." After the old officer finished speaking, he looked at the officers who were staying aside and continued: "But after you leave this branch, you can't have a head-on confrontation with those mages. Not only do they master some second-level spells, but they also have some powerful people behind them. If something unexpected happens outside, we can't do anything for you."
Shaoke nodded, thanked the old officer for his maintenance, and expressed his hope to go to the library tomorrow, because he would wait for a female wizard to come here to report today.
The old officer frowned and said, "Was that female mage come with you?" Seeing that Shaoke nodded and admitted, he looked at Shaoke with a strange look and said, "You don't have to wait for her anymore. She won't come here because her mother has come to help her complete these procedures. It is estimated that the female mage is learning spells in the mage union!"
Shao Ke was stunned, tightened the staff in his hand, and said with some uncertainty: "She will come here, she said, this is something that has been agreed upon." After saying that, he performed the mage etiquette to the officers present again, and turned around and left.
After watching Shaoko leave, the old officer asked the officers on the side sadly, "Do you think he can wait for Master Payton's daughter to arrive? Alas!"
The officers around him didn't say anything, but just lowered their heads and carefully checked whether the white cloth on the table had stains, so that they could be cleaned up in time.
Shaoke kept echoing the old officer's words in his mind. He didn't know whether the female mage would keep the agreement. After returning to the door in a daze, the officer on duty met with some concern, "Dear Master Xueye, those officials have not punished you too severely!"
Shaoke nodded, closed his cloak and asked, "Is there a female mage passing by here?" The officer shook his head, "I'm sorry, respectful Master Xueye, we didn't see it at all. Maybe the mage would not come here in the afternoon. After all, the imperial capital is so big, and if the other party lives far away, it would be difficult to come here in the morning."
Shaoke waved his hand and asked the officer to leave first, "You go and do your business first! I need to be quiet for a while." As he said that, he stood at the first position and watched the mages entering and leaving the door, hoping to find their long-awaited figures in it.
