At the entrance of the Cathedral of the Wish of Light in Melindel, the capital of the Hawke Empire, a handsome young man with long blond hair slowly walked in.

The church staff were not surprised by the arrival of the second prince, they just bowed silently, and then continued their prayers or other work. With a modest smile on his face, Alexander nodded to everyone who greeted him, and after passing through the chapel, he entered a room at the edge of the courtyard garden.

In the room sat a dark-skinned middle-aged man with Xie Toutou, this unattractive man was not surprised by the arrival of the second prince of the empire. He gave Alexander a faint look, then put down the book in his hand.

"Should I go?" The middle-aged man who bowed his head did not salute the second prince, nor even looked up at him, on the contrary, Alexander, who was a member of the royal family, respectfully bowed to this middle-aged man who was not good-looking. Because he is Alexander's teacher, the only paladin in the Western Continent to enter the Sanctuary - Kevin Enaux.

"Yes, I'll leave Melindale for Locke Province in a moment, and I'll say goodbye to the teacher. Alexander replied respectfully.

Kevin raised his head and looked at his proudest apprentice, and couldn't help but sigh: "Let's go, let's go, the apprentice has grown up and become a teacher, it's time to go out and break through." ”

"Teacher, I ......" Alexander suddenly felt that it was a bit inauthentic for him to pat his ass and leave after learning so much from the teacher, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

Kevin saw Alexander's thoughts, and he smiled gently: "Okay Alexander, I didn't blame you, and you don't have to say anything." For a teacher, I am really satisfied to be able to teach such a wonderful apprentice as you. I am also honored to be your teacher. ”

Alexander's face turned slightly red, and he could only say: "I am still too far behind the teacher, you are a powerhouse in the Holy Domain, and I am only a thirteenth-level paladin now. ”

Kevin smiled: "You can cultivate to the thirteenth level at the age of sixteen, and you are still not satisfied? But Alexander, do you know what I'm most proud of you?"

"The apprentice is stupid and doesn't know. ”

"It's your character. Because of your talent, you are naturally a genius who uses and manipulates the Holy Light, so with or without my guidance, you can easily become a powerhouse across the continent. But these are not the most precious, the reason why I was willing to take you as an apprentice in the first place was because of your talent, and more importantly, I saw your integrity and bravery. Over the years, I have continued to educate and influence you, in the hope that you will always retain these precious qualities. And now, I'm glad you did. ”

Kevin touched his baldness and continued, "You've learned almost all the years I've been able to teach you, and the rest is up to you to figure it out." The temptations of the Stoke people seem to have gone beyond His Majesty's bottom line in recent years, and I think something big should happen in the next few months. You need to pay more attention to yourself in the south. ”

Alexander nodded, and at this moment, there was an arrogant shout outside: "Black light, black light! Lao Tzu is coming to see you today!haha!"

Alexander said with a strange expression, "Have you made an appointment with Mr. Malloret today?"

Listening to the shouting outside, Kevin's originally swarthy face turned purple, and the black light was the nickname given to him by the visitor, which means that the skin is as black as charcoal, and the head is shiny. Kevin shook his head a little helplessly: "How do I know that this old rascal is here again......"

Alexander looked at the door, only to see that the beard of the person who came was completely white, the short silver-white hair was meticulously combed, the two sword eyebrows added a bit of heroism to the slightly old face, a pair of starry eyes were bright, the silver-gray eyes flashed with wisdom, and even the mustache under the nose was neatly built. The old man was wearing an off-white robe, and this robe was a rare boutique in terms of style, workmanship and color matching.

If summed up in one sentence, the impression of this old man at first glance should be that he is a nobleman with great etiquette and demeanor. Presumably, when he was young, he was the best beautiful man who could fascinate thousands of girls like the future Alexander. But this old guy spoke in a tone that was just as Kevin had defined, an old rascal......

"Oh, Blacklight, my old fellow, would you be interested in coming with me to the Second Heaven for the past two days? I heard that a Dark Elf slave girl was recently brought there, and you should know how good those Black Pearls are at that point. Oh my god, I feel like I think about it!" the old guy hugged Kevin warmly, with a rascal-like look on his face.

Kevin silently took out his handkerchief, first wiped off the spittle that the old rascal sprayed on his face because he was too excited, and then wiped the corners of the old rascal's mouth to prevent his saliva from staining the floor, and then said coldly: "I'm not interested in that kind of place." And if you really want to find the dark elves......" Kevin paused, and continued with a disdainful gaze, "I think that even if your old bones are not sucked dry on the spot, I am afraid that you will not have the strength to go home the next day." ”

The old rascal was furious when he heard this, first reprimanding Kevin for how unhygienic it was to wipe his handkerchief, and then began to count how he had dominated the wind and moon field back then. In the end, he repeatedly stated that he had always paid attention to exercise and maintenance, indicating that he was still a treasure knife, and that he was a pediatric cloud in front of him seven times a night and a golden gun.

This one was only talking about spittle, which made Kevin's master and apprentice dizzy. Finally, Alexander could not bear to salute the old rascal:

"Hello, Mr. Mallorlet. ”

Malorite turned his head to look, as if he had just discovered Alexander, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then instantly eliminated all the ruffians in his body, bowed gracefully, and said in a magnetic voice: "Good day, Your Royal Highness the Prince." I see that my old friend is a little excited, so I beg your pardon for neglecting you. ”

"Well, it's not ......" Alexander's face was a little strange, although he had met the old fellow many times, but he still couldn't understand how Malolite had made a rapid transition between the old rascal and the old nobleman.

"Sir, are you comfortable in Melindel?" Alexander was speechless.

"Of course, I am very grateful for His Majesty's generosity to me. Life at Melindell has always been a joy for me. Malolet put it mildly:

"It's just that two days ago a little thief actually ran into my yard, but I believe it was just an accident, and I never doubted the safety of Melindell. ”

"Hell, what thief who doesn't have long eyes would dare to steal something from the Wind Swordmaster?!" Kevin and Alexander sighed in their hearts at the same time.

"Later, I saw that the thief was just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, so I didn't punish him much, and sent him directly to the Ministry of Public Security. Malolet continued.

"Young people will inevitably make mistakes sometimes, and I just hope that the Ministry of Public Security will be lighter. Although Alexander was born into a royal family, he occasionally heard about the Ministry of Security.

Although Melindale is a fairly developed city, there are still many orphans who are not well fed and clothed, and those teenagers are always imprisoned for various reasons, and it is said that those teenagers who have been "reformed" by the Ministry of Public Security often talk about that department in the days that follow, and must be tossed by the prison guards who are bored all day. But he didn't know that the teenager he was talking about at this time would have countless connections with him in the years to come.

"As you wish, Your Highness the Prince, I will say hello to the Ministry of Security. Malorit bowed.

Alexander nodded, looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late, I'm still on my way." Teacher, Mr. Mallolet, I'm leaving, please take care of you two in the imperial capital. ”

"Go ahead, be more careful when you get to the south, think more about things, I believe that the apprentices I teach will not let me down. Kevin patted Alexander on the shoulder, and Alexander gave Kevin another mentor salute and turned to leave.

Looking at Alexander's back as he left, Malloret said, "Nice boy, isn't it?"

"No matter how good it is, it's also my apprentice, and it has nothing to do with you. Kevin's face was triolated.

"Hmph, just wait, don't be too proud of accepting a good apprentice yourself. Lao Tzu also prepared a gift for the one in the east these days. When the time comes, you old bald man, be careful to be by that guy. ”

"What good things can a poor Sacred Domain powerhouse like you who is about to collect protection money to make ends meet?" Kevin knew what kind of poor dog this seemingly rich old guy in front of him was.

"You'll know when the time comes. Malollet's face was inscrutable: "This time that old boy is really shit lucky, but I gave him anyway." No, when I see that guy in a few years, I must blackmail him with a few good things, hehe, it feels the best to fight a local tyrant!"

"Hey, the local tyrant you said at the end should be the guy in the east, okay. So don't raid my house!" Kevin's swarthy face darkened as she said as she walked to the bookcase in the inner room, her eyes swept to the third cabinet in the lower left corner of the bookcase.

"Oh, it's a decade of Rousseau's collection. It seems that your paladin is not short of things. Malloret opened the cabinet and looked at the contents with a green glow in her eyes.

Seeing that Malloret was rubbing the bottle like a lover's hands, Kevin knew that this bottle of wine would not survive today anyway, and sighed and said, "Can you leave me some? This is what Alexander gave me two days ago." ”

"What are you kidding, of course good things have to be shared with others to be fun, am I the kind of person who likes to eat alone?" said Mallorlet, looking bold.

"What the hell, where did you smell the smell of alcohol? If you go to the Ministry of Public Security to apply for a job as a search dog, I'm afraid you can steal the jobs of all the dogs there!" Rao is Kevin cultivated well, but he was finally forced to go berserk by Malloret and began to use the meanest language to make sarcastic remarks, but he could only take advantage of his mouth, if he really started to do it, Kevin really didn't know the bottom of his heart.

And Mallolet ignores Kevin's sarcasm, and just holds the bottle all over the room looking for crystal cups to pour wine.

"Holy light is above, why can even such a scoundrel enter the holy realm......" Kevin sighed weakly in his heart, and then took the initiative to take out the crystal cup.

......

Ten days later, Ralvine the Great issued an official letter strongly condemning the Stokers' repeated efforts to create friction on the border between the two countries, and stating that the Hawke Empire had decided to increase troops on the southern border when it could not bear it, and that if Stoke did not have a reasonable explanation for the recent friction, then the Hawke Empire would not rule out the possibility of starting a war. At this point, the Hawk Empire entered a state of second-level combat readiness.

When the whole country was shocked by the strong reaction of the Empire, a convoy of escorts arrived at the seaport of Kod. These slaves will be taken to the Eastern Continent to lay the groundwork for the Hawke Empire's expansion in the Eastern Continent.

"Oh, is this the sea? Is this a ship? can this thing really take us across this ocean that is as far as the eye can see?" said Regner to himself, looking at the big guy moored at the harbor.

"Bang!" a fan-sized slap slapped Regner on the back of the head, instantly making Regner, who was as thin as a monkey, look at gold stars.

"Line up and get on the boat for me!" The Imperial sailors who escorted the slaves spat and spat on.

Regner glanced at the sailor with hatred, but seeing the sailor's strong chest muscles and thick arms, he could only honestly follow the slave party onto the ship.
