The gargoyle brought letters from Maureen's grandfather. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the boy's memory, nearly three years ago, his grandfather suddenly went out, leaving only a black crystal card and a word telling Morin to develop in the direction of a mage, and he never appeared again, and no news came back. Although little Maureen finally escaped his grandfather's strict training and supervision, and was really free and happy for a while, he also missed the old man whose whereabouts were unknown after a long time.

Especially after completing the training tasks assigned by his grandfather when he was leaving, the teenager often thinks that maybe one day his grandfather will suddenly come back, and then he can show his grandfather the progress of the past few years, and if he doesn't give himself a thumbs up, then ...... Then draw a pig-on-skin pig on his head while he sleeps......

Well, even if it's the risk of not being able to eat meat for three months.

Of course, ask your grandfather why he had to be a magician, and he couldn't use magic cards. And the black crystal card, which has now become "Maureen Calland's Little Puddle of Magic", suspended in the center of the bubble space, does not move, what is the origin of it?

If Grandfather knew he couldn't connect to the Sea of Magic, why didn't he tell himself sooner.

Feeling that there were 10,000 questions piled up in his heart to ask him the old man, after three years, Morin finally received another message from his grandfather.

But in addition to knowing that he was safe and relieved, the young man had more doubts.

The doubts come from the contents of this letter.

The letter was not long, mainly to tell the boy that he had returned home and that he was safe, and the rest was to ask Morin to keep the news that he had returned, which made the boy particularly puzzling.

“…… You used to be young, and we avoided mentioning many things to you on weekdays, and if nothing else, according to the custom of the Illuvita Academy, by the time this letter arrives in your hands, you should have completed the oath of professionalism. We'll tell you a little bit about the past in the future, and you'll be prepared to take on more responsibilities.

The most important thing to know at the moment is that only a handful of people on the continent of Todder know my whereabouts, and for some reason I will still hide my whereabouts even when I am in Harriet Harbor. You may also wonder why I rarely took you out in the past, and occasionally I only went out to train in the wilderness without people, and this is one of the reasons.

…… Other things to discuss when you come back from vacation. In addition, it is important to note that you should never expose news about me, and avoid this topic when communicating with your home, as the usual communication channels are not secure. May the blessings of the moon god always accompany you on your journey. ”

The letter is not even explicitly signed, except for a blue Storm Bear badge at the end, representing the Callanders.

After reading his grandfather's letter silently, the young man frowned and folded it into his arms, looked at his companions around him, and didn't know how to explain: "It's nothing special, it's just that I was a little surprised to suddenly receive a letter from his old man." ”

He hid the gloom from his face.

"Grandfather never interacted with the people in the town before, it turned out to be a cover-up, but it reminded the boy of his mentor Ed Warlund, the news that Ed is still alive is also unknown, but he looks very badly injured, and grandfather is obviously healthy, but I don't know ......why," Merlin thought stunned.

It seems that as I grew up, my life suddenly became much more complicated, I used to just hunt birds at the beach every day, run around the town in the morning, and then look at the books in the study, and the only worry was to choose whether to eat kebab or schnitzel for each meal. And now, in addition to many things in the academy, even my grandfather has become mysterious, and these problems are mixed together, like a ball of thread that can't find the thread, which makes the teenager a little confused.

Moreover, the letter specifically told him that other matters would be discussed when he returned to Port Harriet during the holidays, and that it was not safe to communicate by letter, so even if Morin's heart was full of doubts at this time, he had to suppress it.

He let out a long breath and struggled to get the doubts out of his mind.

A few days later, Maureen received another letter from Daddy Pike, which also subtly confirmed his grandfather's advice.

Baron Pike's letter does not mention anything about Maureen's grandfather, only that he is concerned about Morin's usual life, but at the end it is unusual to emphasize that Maureen should return early for the summer vacation. In addition, Baron Pike also mentioned that the situation in the Kingdom of Lothar is not stable, so he should be more careful when he returns.

However, at this time, the teenager had no intention of thinking about it anymore, and as the school year gradually drew to a close, this year's command league finally kicked off. His team of Iluvita Silvertree is about to play the first match of the year, and the game is from the Windy Valley team of the Windy Valley Swordsman Academy.

The Command League is an annual tournament held by the Temple, which is divided into preliminary and official rounds by teams of students representing their respective houses. In Todel, the temple has nothing to do with the gods, but is sacred, and the four temples have their own duties, and in a nutshell, order transmits knowledge, life heals the wounded, nature looks at chaos, and the elements quell wars.

Commanding the league is particularly valued by the Elemental Temple, and the referees are all served by the priests of the Elemental Temple.

Although he didn't intend to let Maureen play in this game, Captain Dimon still included Maureen in the Silvertree team roster and reported it to the temple early, including Morin and Tilna, together with Jody, Carol, Billy and other seniors, a total of twelve members, just enough to meet the maximum number of players in the game.

The minimum number of players is six and the maximum number is twelve, generally speaking, the more the number of players, the greater the advantage, basically in the game are full of formation.

Warchess cards can be said to be the most popular game among professionals, even ordinary people, because of their low mental strength and unable to control warchess cards, will never refuse to watch a fierce simulation war, especially when one of them represents their own honor in a sense.

Therefore, in the Iluvita Academy of Magic and Magic, although the number of students who choose the direction of command is scarce, every year when it comes to directing league matches, even students who never usually play war chess cards will come to the war paddock to cheer for the Silver Tree team whenever they are free.

Even many of the seniors sat in the stands on both sides of the valley early in the morning with stacks of magic books, ready to "do their best" to review the lessons while watching the game, and they could only ask themselves how effective it was. In addition to students, many teachers and researchers also came to watch the competition.

Traditionally, the four academies in this region play their matches in the war paddock of Iluvita, with each team playing against the other three teams for a total of six matches, each lasting up to one day, from morning to evening. Because the four academies are relatively close to each other, all in the vicinity of the Divine Royal Capital, it is very convenient to travel by means of transportation such as flying carriages, and in addition to the teams that come to the competition, a large number of students from other academies will come here to cheer for their teams.

The stands on both sides of the valley were naturally divided into four areas, and for example, today was the match between Silvertree and Windy Valley, and the silver seats of Iluvita Academy and the green seats of Windy Valley Academy were already a bit overcrowded. There were also some people sitting scattered in the seats of the other two academies, some of them were fanatics of war chess and cards, and many of them were here to "find out about the enemy".

After all, the teams of these four academies always have to play a game on their own sooner or later, and it is more or less good to see the other teams' games.

By this time, the morning fog had lifted, and the Judge from the Elemental Temple was standing on top of the metal square in the valley.

He looked like a middle-aged man, with a short beard, a white robe, a purple demonic ribbon tied around his waist, and a red flame tattooed on his chest, the flames were divided into seven flame tips, representing his identity as a seventh-order elemental sacrifice.

The owners of the shopping street have also arrived here early, and have set up temporary stalls by the side of the venue with magic, selling all kinds of candy, snacks, drinks and magic props. For example, a magical firework will explode into a shining silver tree that will stay above the field for a long time.

On the other side, the students of the Wind Valley Swordsman Academy also took out the magic items they had already prepared, and summoned a huge flag above their seats, almost covering most of the sky, and on the flag was their team's sword badge. The flag obscured the sky and the view of the spectators, and the students of Iluvita protested loudly, until the referee below made a gesture that the students of Windy Valley College lowered the flag a little.

After a while, the audience seats on both sides suddenly erupted in overwhelming cheers.

But it was the players of both teams who finally entered.

After a brief ceremonial ceremony, the two teams each walked up to the top platform of the metal towers on either side of the field and stood in front of the command and control platform, while the referee in the center of the square floated in the air until it exceeded the tower.

The command console in front of the outbound team members lights up first, this is the preparation stage, the two teams need to choose the initial army matching, including the other functional cards in the deck, the sum cannot exceed the upper limit of the combat ability value, and the referee must look at it after completion.

The referee held a crystal in his hand, which was the simulation core of the war paddock, and through this crystal, after the inspection, I don't know what magic he used, and the loud voice spread throughout the war paddock.

"I announce that the Year of the Stars, the preliminary round of the Command League, the first match of Division 7, the Iluvita Academy of Magic vs. the Swordsman Academy of the Wind Valley, starts now. ”

As soon as the words fell, in the eyes of the students in the stands, a lofty mountain appeared on the metal square in the valley, and the armies in the two base camps that were far away from each other rushed out in different directions, ready to explore the terrain and seize the seven relatively fixed resource supply points in the field.

At this time, among the silver seats of Illuvita Academy, there was a little fat man who was not wearing a school robe and stood out, he was holding a long cylindrical magic machine, looking at the command platform of Illuvita Academy from afar through the magic lens. As an avid sim game enthusiast, Kellyyur doesn't plan to miss a single game.

"One, two,...... Ten, eleven, only eleven team members, and one is still missing," the little fat man counted: "Strange, why didn't I see that guy, the last time I saw him, he obviously had the badge of the Silver Tree Clan, could it be that he was kicked out so quickly......?"

was wondering, wanted to count again, suddenly felt that it was dark in front of him, but the lens barrel was blocked, the little fat man was stunned, and then he found that Mo Lin had squeezed to his side at some point.

Maureen was very impressed by the boy named Kellyyur, his position was relatively far away, and he was the only one in the stands who was not wearing a school robe and needed to use magic machines to see the situation on the field, he was very conspicuous, and he was easily found in the crowd.

Maureen participated in the previous ritual, but this time the game was not played, and he returned to the audience.

He wanted to pull Kellyyur to Barron and join them, but he sensed the position of Barronmacus and Emino with the pentagram rune, and found that the seats on their side were simply crowded, so he had no choice but to give up.

"Why didn't you play?" Kellyyur asked, "Did you get kicked out of the team because you were so poor?"

"I'm not in good health these days, and I can't play for the time being......," Morin said humbly, this is the reason that Senior Dimon gave him.

"Based on the information I've gathered, you should have won this game relatively easily, but it's a shame you didn't play. The little fat man said sympathetically, he also knew that Mo Lin was almost a pure novice, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for him when he missed such a good practice session due to physical reasons.

"I'm going to ask you to explain the game to me today!" Morin diverted the subject.

The little fat man patted his chest angrily, picked up the long cylindrical magic machine and put it in front of him to look at it.

Unlike Morin or other professions who can see the entire battlefield through spiritual perception to assist their vision, Kellyyur had to use magic machinery to magnify his vision, and it was still early for the two armies on the battlefield to meet, so he took the mirror barrel and looked at the seat opposite.

"Look, look, in the blue stands over there, Wren, the captain of the Alliance Non-commissioned Officer Academy, is watching the battle there!"
