On the side of the palace dedicated to entertaining foreign guests, located in the elves, in a chic little garden, Teresa was enjoying the afternoon leisurely. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

At this moment, Dio, who had a straight face, suddenly broke in. Then he sat down heavily on the chair beside Teresa, and picked up a glass of water and poured several sips of water.

"What's going on again?"

Teresa stretched lazily, then asked lazily.

"I have just received a report that the troops of the United Kingdom of Malte have been defeated again, and the entire defense line has retreated to the line of the fortress of Tux."

Dio replied angrily: "The small half of the kingdom has fallen like this, are those front-line commanders all pigs?" ”

"Fortress of Tux, ......"

Teresa narrowed her eyes, and then said with some surprise: "Isn't it not far from the Black Ridge Mountains and the Black Forest!" ”

"Hmm!"

Dio nodded, and said a little depressedly: "So, Alice's Academy of Magic has officially closed." Moreover, except for a small number of teachers and students who returned to their respective families, the rest of the teachers and students all ran to Tuques Fortress to help. ”

"Principal Alice, how many of them went?"

Hearing this, Teresa's expression also became a lot more serious.

"Not really."

Dio shook his head and explained, "At present, only two vice-principals have gone to Tuques Fortress to protect the students, and Principal Alice and the other two vice-principals are still staying in the academy. ”

"However, since there are already two vice principals dispatched, it is probably only a matter of time before Principal Alice and them appear at the forefront."

Teresa put down the cup in her hand and whispered, "Unfortunately, we can't do anything now." ”

"That's why I feel very depressed!"

Dio sighed heavily and turned his head in the direction of the palace, "How much time will it take Aisha to complete that ritual?" ”

"I heard the Elven Empress say that it should be in the next few days...... Hmmm......"

Teresa stopped abruptly in the middle of her sentence, and then she quickly raised her left hand, and saw that the white runes on her arm were emitting a faint light.

At the same moment, Dio also raised his left hand, looking at the black rune on his arm with a somewhat helpless expression.

Then, the two of them sat up straight, their eyes slightly closed, silently accepting the various magical knowledge that kept coming from the runes.

This magical knowledge actually comes from Aisha on the other side of the contract.

The special ritual of the World Tree "Mel" to give Aisha the brand that belongs to the Phantom Beast Realm takes a very long time.

It will take about half a year!

It is precisely because of this that Dio and Teresa are still stranded in the Phantom Beast Realm.

The reason for this situation is mainly because Aisha's strength is too weak, so the world tree "Mel" has to improve Aisha's strength while slowly giving Aisha the brand of the Phantom Beast World.

Since Aisha is a magician, in addition to increasing the amount of magic power, Aisha also needs to learn a lot of magic knowledge to improve her strength.

Fortunately, the world tree "Mel" has a family like the elves, so there is no shortage of knowledge of magic. However, when the World Tree "Mel" instills magical knowledge in Aisha, there is a small accident.

Because there is a high-level contract between Dior and Teresa and Aisha, when the world tree "Mel" instilled magical knowledge into Aisha, a considerable part of the magical knowledge was forcibly transferred to Dior and Teresa's side by Aisha, who was unable to bear the indoctrination of the world tree "Mel".

So in this small half a year, Dior and Teresa will enter this state of falling asleep and waking up from time to time.

This made both Dio and Teresa feel a little irritated.

Of course, in addition to this disadvantage, the diversion of Aisha's knowledge that Dior and Teresa endured is not without benefits at all. The biggest advantage is that Dio, who has always been struggling to learn magic, has improved his magic level considerably under such a knowledge indoctrination.

If it weren't for Aisha's strength limitations, Dio would have been a true seventh-order magician now.

Even so, Dio was now confident that he could defeat any sixth-order magician with pure magic.

Teresa, who also has a contractual connection, in addition to a considerable improvement in divine arts, she also has a relatively in-depth understanding of the application of various weapons.

Now Teresa, even without the enhancement of that treasure-level "cross", can be respected as a master-level master in the application of various weapons.

Or the master of the whole line......

In addition, the current state of the two can actually be interrupted at any time. However, there is no reason for either of them to give up this rare opportunity. So whenever this happens, Dior and Teresa will quickly find a safe place and quietly "study".

It is precisely because of this situation that Dio and Teresa have mostly stayed near this palace for half a year.

And in the small half a year that Aisha and the others were stranded in the Phantom Beast Realm, a lot of things happened in the main plane.

The most important thing for Aisha is that she doesn't have to worry about her skipping classes for more than half a year, because the Mantes Empire has finally officially issued a declaration of war, and then brazenly invaded the United Kingdom of Malt.

Although the United Kingdom of Maltes had already prepared for the invasion of the Mantes Empire, the speed of the Mantes Empire's invasion was too fast.

Several forts on the border between the two countries on the part of the United Kingdom of Maltes were forcibly captured almost on the same day that the Mantes Empire issued a declaration of war. After that, the army of the Mantes Empire drove straight in, and it was not until it encountered the army of the Flame Grand Duke that the Mantes Empire's offensive slowed down.

However, as can be seen from the war reports obtained by Dio, the current situation in the United Kingdom of Malte is actually very bad......

After a long time, the runes on the backs of Dio and Teresa's hands gradually dimmed. Before Dio and Teresa, who had come to their senses, could sort out the new knowledge in their minds before they felt a throbbing from the connection of the contract.

“…… It's finally time to wake up! ”

Feeling that Aisha was gradually sobering up, Dio stood up very excitedly.

"Let's go, we'll pick up Aisha right away!"

Teresa also stood up with a happy face, although she behaved calmly. But in fact, after staying here for half a year, Teresa already feels a little tired.

Even if the scenery here is good, if you look at the first half of the year in a row, I'm afraid that everyone will find it boring.

So the two looked at each other and smiled, and then rushed to the elven royal palace together.
