The sweet fruit wine and the spicy side dishes are a great treat in late summer and early autumn.

After a glass of fruit wine, the topic of master and apprentice who had not been friends for a long time gradually increased. Charlotte first routinely inquired about the homework of the two girls, and after learning that they both had plans to hit the six rings, she encouraged them and answered some homework problems for them.

Then the three of them talked about the changes in Icewind Castle in recent days, Lolita was very enthusiastic about it, and these days she gradually showed her true colors as a profiteer, first during the Northern War, she used her position to raise a small caravan, and then found Illya's relationship after making a lot of money, and wanted to show her strength in the new northern city.

However, she did not do things out of the ordinary, although she got great convenience under the Charlotte brand, but she did not do anything to hurt nature and eliminate dissent. In addition, Lolita gradually learned that it is not easy to eat alone, and the profits obtained not only honored Charlotte, but also supported Vivian's spell research, and even Vivian's father also took a big slice of it.

Now she is the private vault of the trio of mentors and apprentices, and even Charlotte has praised her business talents and taken a stake in her firm.

The three of them were drinking and talking, and as Lolita rolled up her sleeves and boasted about her legendary experience, Vivien raised her concerns.

"But how long can such a prosperous and peaceful life last?" Compared to Lolita, who has a big personality, Vivien is more delicate and sensitive. She is sensitive to changes in the current situation, almost instinctively aware of the nature of all kinds of changes.

As soon as Vivien spoke, Lolita, who had just been talking, fell silent. She and Vivien are like sisters, and the two of them have naturally discussed these topics. In fact, despite Lolita's smooth sailing in business, there are actually many ideas that Vivien is behind the scenes.

"I don't know, the first priority is to find Sister Sylvia. Speaking of this topic, Charlotte's high mood also subsided, "But no matter what, Vivien, Lolita, you guys get ready." So far, I won't say anything stupid about changing your court as soon as possible in order to protect you. As my disciples, you don't know whether you are lucky or unlucky, all in all, since it is a fait accompli, you can only make yourself strong as soon as possible, so as to seek a chance to survive in the future war. ”

"What about the scale of the battle?" Vivien's eyes burned, "Teacher, you must have an estimate, right?"

"Well, I'd like to try to get the best out of it, but to be honest, I don't think a storm sweeping across the multiverse will be inevitable. At that time, the powerful races in the major worlds of the multiverse will not be able to escape this vortex. While not without allies, we are indeed at a disadvantage for now. ”

Although she was worried that her disciples would be pessimistic, Charlotte decided to tell the truth when she considered the cruelty of reality. Truth be told, even Charlotte herself can't guarantee that she will survive until the end of winter. Even considering the death reset that still has many doubts, he does not have enough confidence to face this challenge.

The reason is simple. While at the Battle of Savoieburg he summoned the future, lifting the light of the imfully formed throne. But according to his theory, it is only the possibility that he will become the king of roots in the future. Even if you take a step back, the fall of the Root King in the Great War can be regarded as a high probability event. From the Three Emperors of the Magic Empire to Edwin, the Star Lord who fell two years ago, Charlotte realizes that being the King of the Roots does not mean being invincible.

On the other hand, although Charlotte has the power of death reset with a high degree of mystery, what if she encounters a power that is more mysterious than death reset?

It was because Charlotte herself could not guarantee his own safety that he was full of apologies to his disciples. The battle of winter begins, and Charlotte, who is unable to protect herself, has the ability to care about their safety.

But to Charlotte's surprise, Lolita showed a eager expression for his cruel answer, and even Vivian, who was cautious in her impression, breathed a sigh of relief as if she had let go of something.

"You ...... Aren't you afraid?" said Charlotte, confused.

"What are you afraid of! The sky is falling, and you are still holding on to the teacher! If you really can't stand it, it is also unthinkable, all in all, since there will be a big war, it means that there will be more opportunities in the future, right? I can't wait to make a fortune...... No, it's a fast development of itself!"

I don't know if it's better to say that she's heartless, or bold, and looking at Lolita with her sleeves pouring fruit wine gives Charlotte the illusion that maybe she's a genius merchant delayed by spells.

He no longer cares whether it is Lolita, who is brave or stupid, and he can know a little about what he thinks with a girl who was printed in a mold from his childhood. But for his other disciple, he was more concerned. In Charlotte's impression, Vivian has always been the timid and cautious little Lori.

But this time, the stereotype is destined to be broken.

In response to Charlotte's concerned gaze, Vivien smiled back with an intellectual calmness, "Teacher, please rest assured. Although every time I think about it, I occasionally think that the beautiful and prosperous Icewind Castle may be destroyed in the war one day, and I am so worried that I have trouble breathing. But listening to the teacher's answer today, my mood was wonderfully calmed. Presumably this is what the book says, fear comes from the heart, right? All in all, although Lolita's words sound a little subtle, the truth contained in them is worth affirming. I have made up my mind to contribute to the protection of my homeland in the future war, no matter what the final outcome is, but I think that as long as I do my best, I will not regret anything and will not be afraid of anything when I stand behind my teacher!"

At the end, she added, "I don't want to be swayed by the fear in my heart anymore, and I regret it in the end!"

Looking at Vivien's intellectual smile and Lolita's adorable tiger teeth, Charlotte once again felt the power of time.

Everyone has become different under the wash of time, and the once timid and heartless little girl has now grown into an excellent talent in her own right.

From this day on, Charlotte realizes that she can no longer think of them as young eagles in an eagle's nest, and that they are already capable of spreading their wings and soaring through the sky.

Even they weren't afraid, so what else did Charlotte have to worry about?

"Alright, let's make a pact. As a teacher, I will definitely lead you to victory. After the victory, let's drink the wine like we do today and reflect on the upcoming turbulent experience!"

"Oooh-" Lolita, who had come crazy, slammed the delicate wooden table with the bottom of her glass, "Let's toast to victory-"

Vivien covered her mouth and chuckled, and also raised her glass and said, "Teacher, cheers!"

"Hmm! Cheers to victory—"

As soon as the drinkers who were watching them mistakenly thought that the three masters and apprentices were celebrating the complete victory of the Northern War, everyone raised their glasses and laughed with joy.

Cheers to victory –

At this moment, this revamped tavern became a sea of joy!
