Chapter 1748 ?? (?????) ?? a long, long time ago(1/2)
A long time ago...
In the ancient times, a prince named Raddy held a holy sword. After an extremely fierce battle, he finally shattered the ambition of the Emperor of Dalhis Empire, and resealed the summoned Chaos God Caos underground, laying the opportunity for peace in this world again.
Immediately afterwards, time passed by hundreds of years...
During this period, the continent of Elusalia was in an era of delicate balance between light and darkness.
Countless prosperous countries continue to appear and gradually decline. After their demise, new lives and kingdoms begin to appear, with a cycle of reincarnation every two to three hundred years. The country that defeated the evil prince Radi, the Kingdom of Valdia, cannot escape the eternal law and destiny.
However, when the kingdom was destroyed, the last descendants of the royal family hid the crucial holy sword, allowing it to disappear on the vast land, which has been for hundreds of years so far.
After the demise of the Kingdom of Valdia, many large and small countries began to emerge on this continent. After all, the world will not stop moving because of the demise of any country. Among them, such a small country is full of ambition to conquer the continent, slowly extending and developing its sphere of influence and continuously expanding its territory.
This country is the famous Reygard Empire, referred to as the Empire!
Driven by the ambitions of the emperor Belenhalt, the empire's major legions and soldiers were gradually eroding the surrounding countries.
Isn't this?
Today, for some reason, Leon, the commander and general of the Green Dragon Knights, the four major corpses of the Empire, and his adjutant Leat, led the forty elite light cavalry of the Green Dragon Knights, and one hundred infantrymen from the Empire's new camp sneaked across the border and came to the territory of the neighboring country Sarras, which had not yet officially declared war.
“??”
"General!"
"What are we doing on this road? Aren't we going to the small village led by Sarras?"
"It's there, and if it passes from here, it will be farther and there are more people."
When the team reached a fork, they saw that Leon, the leader of the Knights, did not follow the originally planned route, but turned to another small path. Adjutant Learte couldn't help but feel a little curious and hurriedly rode his horse to their general and asked.
He didn't think that their battle-hardened commander of the Qinglong Knights would not know the way, so he couldn't help but ask curiously, knowing that the other party must have turned in on purpose.
"I know."
"but……"
"Liat, on the way to come, I believe you have heard of it. It is said that from here, there is a very powerful arcane master in the mountains?"
"So, I plan to meet her first!"
Leon didn't care about his adjutant's words, but instead continued to ride his horse and led everyone forward slowly, explaining with a smile.
"But…..."
"I have only heard of summoners, great magicians, sages, etc., that 'arcane master', I have never heard of it, and I don't know the other party's background. As for whether you need to go there in person?"
When Liat heard that this was the case, he felt even more puzzled.
In Liat's opinion, Leon, the commander of the Blue Dragon Knights, is a general of the Empire. His importance is second only to the existence of the Imperial Prime Minister and Black Magician Akebellu. Even if there is really a very powerful mage in the Sarras, he can just send someone to recruit him after he returns. As for taking time out this important task, he will take time to go there specifically?
"Well..."
"I don't know why, but I think since we've all come, it's very necessary to travel this time."
"Let's go!"
"It's just a detour, and it can't delay things!"
After pondering for a while, Leon finally shook his head, not caring about the objection of his adjutant, Learte, and still insisted on moving forward and took the lead in leading the way.
"yes!"
"I understand."
Seeing that his general insisted on going, there was no choice but to follow him patiently.
At the same time, he began to privately calculate what speed he and others should use to advance in the next march so that he could arrive at the border village of Saras on time and complete that important task.
“Hmm?”
"Hello!"
"Listen, Commander Leon is thirsty again?"
‘Tsk tsk!’
"Really, with our Mr. Barth here, what other arcane wizard do you need?"
"I guess, I just ran to the mountain village to cheat me if I knew a few fireball techniques. I have seen many guys like that!"
"One knife is one, I think there are many cuts!"
Behind the team, an infantry officer muttered and complained with some complaints after hearing the conversation between Leon and Leat.
Because they don’t have war horses to ride like the guys in front of them. Now they are fully armed and walking, it is a hard time to rush on the road in this state of combat readiness. Now, when they learn that they have to take a long way to find a wizard who is unknown to the depth, can he not complain?
“!!”
"Captain Barth, just keep your voice down?"
"If the Leon Commander and others hear it, you will be more beautiful!"
When another little officer next to the guy named Barth heard it, he quickly spoke out to stop the other party, then quickly pulled the other party's hand, signaling the other party not to talk too much and hurry up and hurry up.
"Okay!"
"I understand! I understand!"
"Don't pull it!"
Soon, with the sound of small complaints, the sound of armor collisions, and the sound of horse hooves fading away, the team of imperial soldiers who had sneaked into the neighboring country soon disappeared among the mountains and ridges of the Sallas Territory.
After half a day...
This small group of more than a hundred people, a mixed army of infantry and cavalry, finally arrived at one of their destinations, a two-story wooden and stone house located by a small river and with a garden.
"this……"
"This should be a hotel, right?"
After the adjutant, Liatle, took the horse, asked with some uncertainty.
"Yes."
"It is said that the great arcane wizard lives inside. A while ago, the other party helped the people here to drive away a group of bandits and monsters."
"Look!"
"Isn't there a village at the foot of the mountain?"
Leon sat on the saddle, pointed at the fields not far away and the small houses hidden at the foot of the mountain and said.
“!!”
"But General!"
"If there is a village here, then our actions are not..."
Afraid of his heart, the adjutant Leat suddenly asked with some concern.
After all, the military power led by Sarras should not be underestimated, especially when the war has not officially begun, there will still be certain risks if such a few people in their empire penetrate into other people's territories, especially when their whereabouts are exposed.
"It's okay!"
"It's only half a day from here to the destination. We can perform the mission on time tomorrow and return. Even if the lord of the Sarras tribe discovers it, what can we do?"
"Let's go!"
"We've come here, let's go over and take a look!"
"Let others wait here, come with me!"
After saying that, Leon rode his horse first.
Soon, as they approached, the two saw that in front of the roadside hotel, a cute little blond girl was arguing with a young man wearing a white cloak, holding a magic wand in his hand, looking like a trainee magician.
"Everyone said it!"
 ̄? ̄)?????
"I will definitely not teach you magic anymore, get out of here!"
(??ˇεˇ??)
"If you don't leave..."
(?~?)
"Be careful that someone will let the bear eat you!"
o(*' 〼')o
"ah?"
"But……"
“!!”
Then, before the boy who looked like a magician wanted to continue saying something, Leon and Leat saw it. They didn't know what the little girl had done. The other party screamed and was knocked out from the door of the hotel garden yard and rolled out.
"Ouch!"
"I……"
“?!”
"You are..."
The young man got up and was about to continue to explain, but when he turned his head and saw Leon and Leat coming to the front, and then looked at the group of imperial soldiers in the distance, he was shocked, and then his face changed drastically, and he no longer dared to bother with the little girl.
"Hello!"
"Is that noble Arcane Master living here?"
After looking at the little girl inside, and then looking at this magician apprentice who even the little girl could not beat, Leon became even more determined to meet the great arcane spell.
To be continued...
