Chapter 3, The Immortal King

"I signed the terms, but at your age, you are not old enough to enter school. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Bywarn swept Lilithia's barren chest.

“……。”

"The most basic maintenance machinery should be fine."

Lilixia nodded.

Bywarn pushed open the heavy wooden door, and the stench of rust and lube came to his face.

"These are all teaching machinery, no one has maintained them for half a year, although the school has a work-study program, but each of those young masters is willing to come, are you willing?"

In the expected silence, Lilixia and Bywarren passed by, walking straight behind the pile of scrap metal, aiming for the huge closet embedded in the wall.

Pulling open the heavy iron door, two dusty iron armors bathed in dusty air, and the armor was hoisted, only the toes touched the ground.

Lilixia didn't mind the dust on her armor and wiped her armor's chest, revealing the words "ImmortalKing" engraved in English.

"The Immortal King." Lilisa muttered.

"It's been a long time since I've taken care of it, and even though the parts have been soaked in red mercury, there's no chance they'll rust." Bai Warren didn't know when he was standing beside Lilixia, "These two are the treasures of the town, orthodox military armor. ”

"No problem."

"Okay, if that's no problem, that's it for now." Bywarn looked at Lilixia's blue pupils full of armor and didn't listen to him at all.

"Can you help me take it off?"

"Okay."

The weight of the armor, which is more than two meters just by looking at it, is certainly not light, but it was easily removed by Bai Volon.

Lilixia didn't know where to take out a rag and wipe it gently, wipe off the dust, the copper-colored metal shone in the sun, Bai Warren dropped a sentence and silently exited the room, "Remember to go back before ten o'clock, there is no place for you to live in the student dormitory." ”

Bail-Warren was completely relieved to hand over to Lilisa a warehouse worth more than Tira's debts, and if it was someone from that place, this kind of armor would probably be just a gadget.

The mechanical clock hanging high on the wall ticked, the sunlight outside the window began to shift, and the huge armor had been dismantled and arranged according to the size of the parts.

"Goo~." A cute grunt came from the part of Lilixia's belly.

"I'm hungry."

After looking around, there was no one in the room, and Lilixia opened the wooden door, not putting the armor back together, it seemed that foraging was much more important than that.

The Phocole Grande de Virginia, originally a cathedral in Virginia, was later built around the church to build an academy, so the elective courses in this secondary school also included theology, and of course, the people who came here were for mechanics.

One hundred and twenty years ago, the magicians of the Kunta Empire built the Eye of Heaven and summoned angels from the heavenly realm, thinking that they would bring ancient magic, but it brought the age of steam.

A substance called red mercury came along with the angels, and the angels smeared the red mercury on the holy sword to punish those who were sinners, and at the same time, the angels also taught humans how to mine red mercury.

Gradually, people discovered that red mercury is a high-temperature liquid substance, which can refine metals, and gold, silver, and brass at high temperatures are called mythical gold, mythril, and shadow metal.

The Shire, an empire that did not have mastered magical technology, tried their best to learn the technology brought by the angels, and in this way, destroyed the Kunta Empire in the far east, created mechanical armor that could rival the angels, destroyed the Eye of Heaven, and drove the angels back to the heavenly realm.

In the next hundred years, counting from the mechanical civilization of the Charr Empire, the Charr used the mechanical armor to conquer the world, and various countries became subject countries of the Charr.

"Goo~." Lilixia's stomach growled more and more often.

For Lilixia, who is only thirteen years old and is still in the Lori category, she didn't eat dinner, didn't eat breakfast, and now she is hungry.

Walking around the huge campus without seeing a single person, Lilixia suspected that they were still in class.

It's hard to find a mechanical clock, it's only more than seven thirty, are people from other worlds so late to school, or is it a holiday today?

The sun hung high in the sky not dazzling, but felt warm, and Lilisa gave up on finding the cafeteria, where the buildings were almost the same, with white marble foundations, red brick walls, and spires.

Finding a bench at random, Lilixia shrunk back into a small ball.

Hopefully, this will reduce the loss of energy, Lilixia thought to herself.

Gradually, my consciousness began to blur, and there were a lot of various things recently, first the master ran away, then I paid off my debts, and now I have to work for this college.

It's still a five-year part-time job, and all the money from the work-study program is used to pay off debts, and Lilixia doesn't know what the concept of four hundred gold coins is, but five copper coins can buy two loaves of bread, so she doesn't have to go hungry now.

Gradually, Lilixia entered the dream, should it be that the sun was too warm and comfortable, so she accidentally fell asleep?

Who knows?

……。

"Sanvina, here, look."

"Huh, kid?"

"Naa, kid, wake up and can't sleep here."

"No response, what to do, Isabel,?"

"In this case, aren't you a member of the Discipline Committee......."

"Woo......."

"Ah, she's awake."

Lilixia sat up and looked at the two figures in front of her, a girl with short pink wavy hair staring at Lilixia with a pair of big pink eyes, Lilixia couldn't help but think of the dog's eyes when she looked at her.

Even if the pink hair looked at Lilixia like this, Lilixia would not forgive her, because she had finally fallen asleep in hunger, and it was too difficult to fall asleep now.

Behind the pink-haired girl was a tall girl with purple hair, her ice-blue pupils giving people the feeling of being thousands of miles away.

Seeing that the two of them were wearing the same standard school uniforms, with a pattern of three rings interspersed on their chests, it seemed that they were students of this school, Lilixia judged.

"Kid, where are your mom and dad?" The pink-haired girl tried to poke Lilixia's face with her finger, but Lilixia dodged without a trace, and the pink-haired girl was a little disappointed.

"Who are you?"

"When you ask someone for their name, you should say your own name first." The purple-haired girl said in a cold, mountain spring-like tone that if it were an ordinary child of twelve or thirteen, she might have been made to cry.

"I didn't ask for a name."

"It's rude."

It's a pity that Lilixia is not, the two pairs of bright eyes look at each other, and neither side gives in, no matter how big or low.

"Goo~." A lovely grunt broke the table.

Strange, why did her stomach blush, and an inexplicable sense of shame crept into her heart, and Lilixia's face turned red.

"Hungry?" The pink-haired girl tilted her head and smiled in a friendly manner.

Lilixia blushed and turned her head to the side.
