Chapter Ninety-Seven: Philo City

The heart of Porto Ferro. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is a harbor city where gray cobblestones are laid everywhere, and even some of the houses are made of cobblestones.

The castle-like buildings are not majestic, but they feel very secure.

There are also many guards standing guard next to the forts, revealing its prestige as a military port.

This is...... The majesty of kingship.

Stomp Tread!!

A dark blue carriage approached, and then suddenly stopped in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

Squeak-

The door slowly opened, and a young nobleman with dark blue hair stepped out of the carriage.

He looked a little emaciated, and those bright eyes shone brightly and confidently.

At this moment, another carriage with a yellowish gray body also stopped on the side.

The door was pulled open by the coachman, and from top of the carriage came an old man.

His white beard and wide hat made him look very wise, and he seemed to be a well-known wise man, or rather......

Mage.

Indeed, whoever sees someone holding an old book with an old skin and exuding a scholarly air all over his body can't help but think of the other person in this direction.

And the old man, after getting out of the carriage, the first thing he did was to look at the other carriage on the side.

To be precise, the owner of the carriage -

The young aristocrat.

After the old man saw him, every wrinkle on his face bloomed, and the old man smiled, and took the initiative to step forward and open his arms to the young man: "Long time no see!" Our dear sons of the navy! Wise Fila! ”

"I'm glad to see you here too! Mr. Kuwait! ”

The aristocratic boy smiled and hugged the old man gently.

"But, Mr. Kuwait, I would have preferred you to call me Handsome Fila!"

Fira shrugged and said teasingly at the old man.

It seems that this old mage named Fira and Kuwait have a good relationship.

"Father...... Brother Fira, who is this old man? ”

At this moment, a childish voice came from above the carriage.

A petite girl poked her head out of the carriage.

At this moment, I saw the door of the study slowly open, and then, it was a petite and slender figure, and she jumped out of the carriage like a small animal.

This is a young girl of about six or seven years old, with soft blonde hair, delicate and small facial features always with innocence and immaturity, but even between running and jumping, it still reveals inexplicable elegance.

She was dressed in a dark blue, ornate dress, and looked like a young lady from a noble family.

The pair of family crests on the little girl's dress, like bright red eyes, show the relationship between the other party and Fila.

The little girl came to Fira's side and hid behind him by his clothes.

"My lovely Narya~" Phila touched the little girl's head, then shrugged her shoulders, "Although this old man has all kinds of shortcomings, it is undeniable that he is still quite powerful. ”

"Ahem, Fira, I think this kind of evaluation is still very ...... for an old man"

"Very good?"

“…… No, I don't think so. ”

The old Kuwaiti mage and Phila were casually talking, showing their invitations to a few of the guards, and then passed the guards guarding the door.

"I've been waiting for a long time, two distinguished guests."

A man who looked like a butler appeared in front of the three of them, leading Phila and the old mage of Kuwait through the garden of the city lord's mansion.

Little Naria bit her fingers and looked around.

The group came to a place that looked like a small parlor.

Among them, there are several other mages who have also settled in Port Ferro, who have already arrived.

When they saw Fila, several people came up to say hello.

Such gatherings have a popular name.

Mage Gathering.

In the center of this small living room is a circle of leather and plush sofas, which are circled around a round table, which looks like an egalitarian feeling.

It's a system that came out of a certain kingdom --

This is generally referred to as the round table.

At this time, a voice rang out.

"You guys are very welcome! My mage friends! ”

The city lord, who had a typical aristocratic image, walked in from the outside, and like most of the nobles that Fira met, this city lord gave the impression that he could not get rid of the taste of nobility.

"Your Excellency, Lord of the City." The mages nodded slightly to him.

Speaking of which, most of the mages did not firmly believe in a particular god, and they were also relatively distant from the church of gods, so the nobles had a better impression of them than the priests of those temples.

"Come on! Have a seat! ”

Nodding, City Lord Andek casually came to one of the couches and sat down.

Beside him, the maids dressed in ultra-low-cut maid suits served everyone black tea and some snacks.

The Lord of Andek and the mages sat in a circle, talking about some recent anecdotes and the like, and the atmosphere was generally very harmonious.

Watching the little girl in his arms all the time, he didn't blend into this atmosphere at all.

Andek had a slight doubt in his heart, but he didn't show it.

And the corners of Fira's mouth silently hooked up a sneer.

Because, he knew very well, this man, who had always shown a kind face, directly ordered the execution of all the inhabitants of a village in order to suppress an undetermined riot, and hung their heads on wooden stakes.

Then, "Majin Slaughtering the Village" sparked hatred once again.

Fira looked at Andek's laughing and talkative appearance, and her heart did not fluctuate at all.

"Do you know about the nearby forest blight?" When the city lord of Andek was "chatting", he "casually" mentioned a sentence.

And all the mages understood what he meant, and they didn't drag on him, and asked him directly.

"We've heard about the wilting incident in the Ferro Forest, but it's still not been resolved?" A mage sitting across from Fira said, frowning as if he didn't know at all.

Kuwait stroked his beard, and the white eyebrows curled slightly: "I believe that the city lord asked us to come over, there must be a plan, isn't it?" ”

Andek showed a bitter smile: "Kuwait mage! Although I have informed the Queen of the situation, it is a pity that Her Majesty has not replied so far...... I'm running out of options! ”

Kuwait's heart is not fluctuating, and he also knows very well about the relationship between this Port Ferro and the royal family.

The two are inextricably linked, and not so long ago, he also knew a little.

And this mission, it will let them come over, also because the Ferro mercenary group lost a large number of men not long ago, and several of its main combat forces were even completely damaged.

This was the main reason why they appeared in the Fero City Lord's Mansion.

There are no more manpower.

Originally, the Ferro Mercenary Group was the one who should come out to solve this matter, but now because the battle damage was too serious, it has been disappearing, and finally forced this Andek City Lord to have no choice but to invite these mages.

Speaking of which, he knows the news, and he still relies on it.......

The old Kuwaiti mage glanced at the young man next to him, this aristocratic young man who not only had strong physical fitness, but also superior magic talents, and at this moment, he was happily joking with the little girl in his arms.

"Alas, what a ........"

Seeing this scene, Kuwait smiled a little bitterly in his heart, but he was still there on the surface, and from time to time he picked up a cup of black tea and took a sip, without any intention of continuing.

In the face of this situation, other people took the initiative, and such actions made Kuwait believe more and more in the information given by Fira.

"That's probably just a demonic beast with strong poison, and even the city lord can't solve it?" The middle-aged mage with brown hair on his head asked "confusedly".

Of course, the old Kuwaiti mage knew this person, although he looked like a middle-aged man, but in fact he was almost old, and he was only twenty or thirty years younger than him.
