The road from the manor to the city of Thanhausen was easy to walk, but today there were many checkpoints set by the Praetorian Guards along the way, which delayed the movement of the caravan that set off at dawn a lot.

Fortunately, the caravan had a companion certificate left by Barnett I, so that they were not thoroughly checked like other merchants, but it still took some time to get through.

This morning, Charles was tasked with sitting on the roof of the carriage and reciting Elvish words. Halkala had bought a Gremlich-lingua franca dictionary from the royal capital of the Kingdom of Philingen, and now Charles was tasked with memorizing the commonly used words.

During the break, Artoria, who was sitting with Charles, whispered to him, "Is it okay for you to give him the crystal pendant?"

Charles smiled and replied in a low voice: "It's okay, study when you sleep at night, practice during the day, this method is said to be effective, I don't see that I also teach Cuihua sword skills in this way." ”

"Alas, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for a master like you at the Cuihua stall. Artoria shook her head helplessly.

Then she asked, "What kind of sword technique did you teach Lancelot?"

Charles looked around him and saw that no one was aware of the conversation between the two of them, so he said in a lower voice, "It's a sword technique that suits his crazy play, and a matching magic." ”

At this time, in the woods of the manor, Lancelot, who had come early in the morning to herd the pigs, woke up from the grass by the pond.

Just now he wanted to take a break and started to continue practicing swords, but he didn't expect to fall asleep all of a sudden.

Lancelot had just dreamed that a fairy girl appeared in the pond, this fairy in a long blue dress, with blue eyes, short blue hair tied with a big blue bow, and three pairs of ice wings floating behind her back, said that she wanted to give him a gift.

Lancelot, who woke up, smiled self-deprecatingly, how can goblins be so easy to see, and they will also give themselves things.

He raised his hand to scratch the back of his head, only to find that he didn't know when an extra necklace appeared on his hand, and in the middle of the pendant of the necklace was a little finger-sized crystal bead with a misty crystal bead inside.

Lancelot immediately looked around and saw no sign of anyone staying.

Towards noon, the caravan arrived at the city of Thanhausen.

The border between the Kingdom of Führingen and the Kingdom of Bischberg is a mountain range, or the Kingdom of Bischberg relied on the mountains to resist the southward pace of the Kingdom of Führingen.

There are several natural roads in this mountain range that are easy to walk, and the city of Thanhausen is located at the northern end of one of them.

Whether it was as an advance base for the southward assault on the Bischberg Kingdom or as the first line of defense against the Bischberg Kingdom's northward advance, the role of the city of Thanhausen was crucial.

At the same time, it is also a peacetime commercial center between the two countries. Most of the caravans from the north to the south stopped here, and then traveled south through the kingdom of Bischberg to the ports on the banks of the Great River, where they traveled by water.

Due to the fact that there is an underground labyrinth not far from the south of the city, a large number of adventurers have gathered here, and these adventurers have driven the development of many local economies.

Nowadays, the royal flag of the Kingdom of Philingen is hung on the city gate, representing the arrival of the king.

The combination of the king's presence and the discovery of the cult gods brought the city's defenses to the highest point.

In the city gate tower, not only are the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard checking the passing pedestrian vehicles, but also the priests of the Temple of the God of War wearing armor and holding weapons are checking whether there are any cultists in the crowd entering and leaving the city gate.

The priests set up a magic array at the city gate, and each person who entered and exited would emit a different color of light.

In addition to the black glow emitted from the body of the cult god, the color of the glow emitted by different people is different depending on their strength.

The light emitted by the disabled who are weaker than ordinary people is gray, the light of ordinary people is white, the light of powerful adventurers is green, the stronger ones are blue, and purple belongs to the top level.

In the entire caravan, the worst light is also green, and there are many blue lights, and Elizabeth's light is directly purple.

Something was wrong with Charles and Artoria, who glowed orange on them.

Then, just as the Praetorian Guards wanted to go up and stop the two of them, they found that the priests of the Temple of the God of War on the side were almost on their knees.

One of the highest priests respectfully came to salute Charles and Artoria, and then invited them to come to the church in the city when they had time.

Seeing this, the Praetorian Guards let them go, muttering things like "Are these two important people for the mother and son?"

There were many people in the caravan who were good at hearing, and Elizabeth was one of them.

She rode over to Charles' carriage and looked at Artoria with a wicked smile.

Charles broke out in a cold sweat between the two, and he saw that the Dumb Hair King had become the Lightning Rod King.

Yesterday someone had already come to the front station, and they led the caravan to the hotel where they had been chartered.

At this time, Charles suddenly realized that there was one person missing from the caravan.

"Thomas is missing?" Charles asked Aubrey as he found his distant cousin who hadn't seen him today.

Aubrey shrugged, "He said he was going home first, so he didn't go into town." ”

Seeing Charles stay there, Aubrey asked, "You don't know his identity yet, do you?"

Charles nodded.

Aubrey looked at Charles a little speechlessly, and said: "He is the crown prince of the Kingdom of Visma, and from here he walks south through the Kingdom of Bischberg, and then crosses the Great River, and there is his home." It's just that he uses a pseudonym. ”

Charles thought about it, and then patted his head, he finally figured out the identity of this old brother.

He had heard his grandfather say once before that Charles's great-grandfather kidnapped the princess of the kingdom, so his great-grandmother's younger brother became king with a confused face. It's just that the king's first day on the job was even more confused, because the country's finances were on the verge of bankruptcy.

Later, Charles's great-great-grandfather felt a little uncomfortable, so he gave the general sales agent of his products on the south bank of the river to his in-laws, so that the small kingdom would not fall apart due to bankruptcy.

At that time, Charles was still in the difficult stage of remembering his name, and the name of the country was not very clear, and now Aubrey mentioned it and remembered it.

Once the accommodation was settled, Charles and Artoria left the inn and inquired all the way to the city's Adventurers' Guild.

Artoria hasn't signed a contract with the caravan yet, so she'll have to wait until she gets the adventurer's papers.
