In the blink of an eye, this sunny summer passed like this, unconsciously. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sixteen-year-old Tracy is about to celebrate her bar mitzvah.

Recently, Fanny is preparing a dress for Tracy after the coming-of-age ceremony, Fanny thinks that Tracy's waist is not slender enough, nor soft enough, and has been using a belt recently, which makes Tracy sigh at the food on the table every day, for those evening dresses, Tracy prefers beautifully made leather armor, which looks quite heroic when worn, in recent years, many girls will choose to wear leather armor, short skirts, Long leather boots, showing off their long round and straight legs, and not worrying about their waist not being slender enough, are far more popular with girls than traditional dresses.

In fact, Tracy still really wants a beautiful leather armor, and I am probably the only one who can understand her thoughts.

I took the scaly leather of the two-headed snake lizard to the leather shop, and asked the tanner to cut out a delicate set of women's leather armor according to Tracy's figure, and wanted to give it to Tracy as a gift for her at the bar mitzvah.

Faced with this incomparably rare two-headed flame snake lizard skin, no tanner could resist the temptation of that high-grade leather, and he kept trying to convince me that it would be a shame not to ask an inscriptionist to make a magic pattern for such a good piece of leather. If I don't have the intention of drawing an inscription on the leather, he would love to leave room for the inscription on the leather armor when he makes it.

If I am willing to give this leather, he is willing to exchange it with me in the leather armor of a delicate salamander or manticore, and he can give me some magic crystals for the rest of the difference, and I politely decline him.

In the city of El, there are no more than three inscriptionists who can draw magic patterns on leather armor. It is said that the production of each magic pattern structure is extremely complicated, and it takes at least a week or two to make a magic pattern structure, and the production cost is definitely not something that ordinary wealthy families can afford, and an ordinary aristocratic family needs to use several years of savings to make a magic pattern structure.

An ordinary aristocratic family has several aspects of calculating property: real estate, land, gold coins and magic pattern construction, which shows the value of a magic pattern structure.

The reason why I made a complete set of flame snake lizard skin armor that did not engrave magic patterns was not only because it was too expensive to ask an inscription master to engrave magic patterns, but also because I hoped that one day in the future, I would be able to draw a magic pattern circle with a signature on it. In addition, I can't keep up with the manufacturing cycle, so I want to give the leather armor to Tracy before the coming-of-age ceremony. However, leather armor must be engraved with inscriptions in the future, and such a precious leather is definitely a tyrannical thing if it is not made into a magic pattern.

It's just that Tracy is still in the dark about all this.

Tracy has been very quiet lately, there are only empty spaces in the school schedule at Stans, many of her classmates are participating in field activities, they all write letters back to Tracy, sometimes she sits on the roof of the attic, and she will watch the funny stories that happened in the jungle with me, but she is not willing to share with me the love letters that Arendt sent back, and the girls always want to have a little bit of their own personal space.

Now that she is a ninth-level warrior apprentice, she has vaguely felt the existence of 'qi' in her body, Ryan said that Tracy is just lacking a little luck, she needs to lift the light veil in front of her with her own hands, and enter the realm of a real swordsman, she is about to graduate, but she is also wandering outside the door of a real swordsman, and she only needs to take the last step towards the door.

Tracy takes a job at a jewelry store on the city's Central Street, where she begins to calculate her dowry.

I suddenly had the feeling that Tracy, the girl who had been a little wayward and paranoid, had suddenly grown up overnight, and she seemed to know a lot of truth.

From the beginning of the hatred, presumably because she thought I shared Fanny and Ryant's affection for her. Later it turned into apathy and detachment, and she knew that I was destined to marry her when I grew up, and her inability to change and shame made her alienate me all the time when she was a girl, and she was even reluctant to introduce my existence to her friends.

Later, she slowly became accustomed and accepted, and she probably thought that I would need to join the army after the bar mitzvah, and that I would marry her if I could come back alive, and she was full of sympathy for my fate.

It wasn't until early spring, when I became an apprentice in magic, that Tracy thought I didn't need to be cannon fodder on the battlefield, and that invisible pressure disappeared all of a sudden, so we were freed from the old suspicions, and after a period of confusion, now we found our place in life, purely a sister-brother relationship, and now Tracy prefers to share with me the secrets of her heart.

She likes to laze on my bed and read while I draw magic scrolls, and her room has only one window, which is not as cool as mine on such a hot summer day. Occasionally, she would help me wash my socks, and only then did I feel like she was my sister.

Tracy likes to pull the minotaur Ruka in the yard when he is bored, and the western rapier beats Ruka's big mallet in terms of skill, but Ruka needs to be careful, his strength has been growing recently, and sometimes he can't control his power well, and he will accidentally flip Tracy to the ground.

......

Squatting in the yard and mowing the lawn, I really want to replace the scissors in my hand with Tracy's rappier, because then the efficiency will be much better. Every time I swung the scissors, the air was filled with the scent of grass, and I found myself enjoying working under such a scorching sun.

When I saw Anne coming down the street from afar, her long red hair fluttering in the wind, like a burning flame when blown by the wind, I always had in my mind the beautiful face of a girl with incomparably gentle red eyes, Caterina. There has been no response to the letter to Qige, and it is not known how they are doing in the imperial capital.

It turned out that before the start of school, Anne rushed back from the mountain town, her salamander leather armor was already covered with scars, maybe she should take it to the leather shop to repair it, she was carrying a very large backpack, it seemed that she had gained a lot during this time in the mountain town. And her aura had changed, and I could clearly feel the rich fire element around her body.

Anne's plump figure is extremely infuriating, when she walks towards me, her whole body is like a layer of beating flames, unlike her charming body, there is a kind of cold flame hidden in her eyes, her eyes have a strong sense of oppression, I always feel that she can see my heart at a glance.

When Anne came back, she did not complain more about my farewell in the mountain city, but asked me to sit under the lemon tree in her yard for a while, and took out the letter sent by Su from the imperial capital, and shared this faint joy with me.

There are some words that come to my mouth, but there is always no way to say them, looking at Sister Guoguo's water elemental spirit who is standing in the courtyard and looking curiously at the light blue flowers in the flower pond, I don't know how to say it to Annie.

"My teacher has written from me asking me to help her in Strange Rock City!" Anne said after a long silence, her eyes rising to look at me, my thin figure reflected in her clear eyes.

"That's a good thing, maybe when we meet again, I'll call you Sir Anne, maybe your Excellency General!" I said, putting the teacup in my hand into the tray, and smiled faintly.

I thought: Anne is going to Qiyan City, Su is going to the imperial capital with Ying Li, and this courtyard of Sister Guoguo may be completely idle, and for Anne, there may be no taste of home here.

Her mentor is Nancy, a very famous great swordsman in El City, who was appointed by the Grimm Empire military as the general of the Strange Rock City garrison at the beginning of the year, and remembers that the War Spirit Squad also went to the south at that time, and helped His Excellency Nancy complete some secret missions as a cronie, but I didn't expect that Anne had only returned to El City for less than three months, and the invitation letter from Strange Rock City was sent.

Anne avoided my gaze bitterly, sighed and said, "That's fine!"

Standing up from her chair, Anne's hands rested on the wooden fence, her eyes became as bright as the night star, and her tone suddenly became firm, and she said, "I can finally realize my dream, I have always thought that the uniform in the barracks looks good to wear, well, maybe that's why I agreed to my mentor." ”

Her words seemed to be speaking to me, and it was like saying them to herself.

"Annie, have you advanced to become a magic swordsman?" I asked her with some feeling.

Anne is very famous among the graduates of this class of warrior academy, she contains fire magic elements in her body, and she can make her sword moves with strong magic damage through special spell formulas, and after being able to become a warrior, she has awakened some magical talents without a magic pool in her body, and such a warrior may become a magic swordsman, but it is not absolute.

"Well, I'm going to go to the Warrior Guild tomorrow to go through the routine. Anne replied very flatly, she looked intently at her right arm, a hot fire element suddenly poured out of her body, the whole arm was wrapped in a flame, she finally comprehended her own 'qi' in the meridians in her body, and it seems that she now knows how to use this qi, drive the fire element to run along some kind of magic pattern circle in her body, and then form a scorching flame.

Anne really did it, so at this moment she has successfully advanced.

......

Recently, the business of the magic grocery store is very prosperous, and the demand for magic parchment has gradually increased, probably Marven has run all the paper workshops around El City, and there is no paper workshop willing to sell the leftovers of my magic parchment, the quality of the magic parchment made in the local paper workshop is still much better than the magic parchment that the merchants trafficked from the Pai Plateau, but the price is also more expensive, so Marven began to gradually contact the merchants who returned from the orc tribe, and their thunder rhinos will always have bundles of magic parchment on their backs, and the price is two percent lower than the parchment in the El City market。

I had to buy blank magic paper to draw normal scrolls, which slightly increased the cost of the 'Pyroscope Scroll' and the 'Frost Scroll'.

Marven was a man who liked to be careful about his calculations, so he soaked the magic parchment paper he bought back in the white ring vine juice for a day and a night to repair the quality of the parchment, and then asked the young craftsmen to cut the magic parchment paper to the right size for drawing ordinary magic scrolls, which did not require too strict skills, and the young leather craftsmen were enough to do the job.

Marven used the blank magic paper cut to draw ordinary scrolls, and sold it at the cost price of the magic parchment, such a cheap price made the paper merchants in the city of El go crazy, and after a long negotiation, the price was adjusted for a while, and he promised that the grocery store would accept orders from the paper merchants, which calmed the anger of the paper merchants around the city hall.

But after this incident, it seemed that the blank magic paper in the magic grocery store became popular overnight, and later Marven excitedly told me that after buying rough magic parchment paper and refining it into blank scroll magic paper, there was still a meager profit surplus after selling it.

In fact, the reason why Marven took such a lot of trouble to do the business of magic scroll blank paper, the original purpose was very simple, he wanted to provide me with some magic parchment paper scraps for free, after producing those blank magic paper, there will be a lot of magic paper leftovers, and using these scraps to make palm-sized fire-gathering magic scrolls is far easier than buying scraps in various paper workshops.

In this way, Marven and I inadvertently have another lucrative business, and at the same time, I have a free and stable supply of Gathering Fire scrolls, and the quality of the magic parchment paper I need has become very stable.

Every day I had to draw those 'fire-gathering scrolls' until my mana ran out, then meditate quickly, and then I kept drawing magic scrolls, and now I'm even skilled enough to talk to Tracy and draw them successfully. Doing the same thing all day long, life is sometimes boring, and before I knew it, in the past month, as a fifth-level magic apprentice, the capacity of the magic pool in my body has reached a bottleneck again, and I have unconsciously reached the peak state of a fifth-level magic apprentice. It is possible to be promoted to a level 6 magic apprentice at any time.

Originally, I thought that after the summer vacation, the demand for the 'Fire Gathering Scroll' would decrease, but in fact, there was a trend of increase.

In the first two months, I only needed to draw 50 'Gathering Fire Scrolls' to meet the needs of the magic grocery store, but during the summer vacation, I had to draw at least 50 Gathering Fire Scrolls almost every night, and the reason for this was nothing more than the two words 'Winter Storage'.

After the beginning of the school year, the coming-of-age ceremony of the graduates at the college means that autumn has arrived, and winter is not far away, and the barbarians hiding in the ice and snow tundra north of the Galloping Horse River will take advantage of the long winter to carry out slave hunting operations.

The people of El have to prepare enough food and fuel for heating before winter comes, so that they can survive the long winter. (To be continued.) )
