The two were talking, when a servant knocked on the car door and reported outside: "Miss, the envoys have arrived, and the city they entered from the Stone Lizard Mountain Road has been delayed for a little time because of martial law. ”

"Humph!" After hearing this, the little girl knocked on the table in the middle of the carriage, pouted, and said, "It seems that the guy has arrived." ”

"Chiara, should we go over?" The earl's daughter asked weakly, but the little girl's attitude was tough, and she quickly shook her head: "No, let's wait here, let me see if that guy is boring first." ”

Although the earl's daughter was full of gentleness, she was not stupid, and she could naturally see that her companion was obviously deliberately unable to get along with the earl, and she could vaguely guess some of the reasons, and couldn't help but ask more worriedly: "Qiara, this is not very good." ”

"What's wrong?" The little girl replied pretending not to care.

"But after all, he is the head of the envoy corps......"

"So what, if that guy dares to kill me with a straight face, I won't go to the empire." The little girl snorted dissatisfied.

"Not going to the Empire?" The count's daughter looked startled.

"What are you afraid of, Enid, when the time comes, you will come to my house to live for a while, and I will go and sue my brother, and your father will not dare to do anything to us." The little girl replied.

The Earl's daughter opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she knew that she could not convince this companion, so she could only sit there in a state of uneasiness, as if she had resigned herself to her fate.

The carriage was quiet for a while, and the two of them waited for Brando's arrival with different moods, and the earl's daughter only hoped that the earl would not be angry with her, and she couldn't help but be sad for a while. The little girl sitting across from her looked unconcerned, tapping her fingers lightly on the window while looking at the scenery outside.

When Brando entered the city, he received a message from a servant. He knew that the representatives of the Siphah family and the Count of Grey Mountain were already in the city, but after settling the envoys and staying at the inn in the fortress, he went to the agreed place alone. When he came to the agreed place, he saw the two carriages parked under the oak trees, and the servants standing in two columns beside the carriages, and he walked over to identify them, thinking that he would be able to see the two representatives, but he did not expect that the messenger came to the carriage not long after he returned the same way, and brought back a sentence to him with a poker face:

"Mademoiselle, she has heard that the Earl is very knowledgeable, and in order to prove the Earl's identity. I want to take the test for some of the Earl's academic questions. ”

Brando couldn't help but be stunned, thinking to himself that this noble lady has no problem with her head, there is such a verification of identity? Could it be that Her Royal Highness the Princess's seal ring is fake?

He glanced over to the carriage. After all, they are members of the royal family - although they are former royal families - and girls, so they don't care too much, so they have to reply patiently: "Please speak." ”

Chiara's little face was almost all on the window, and she said with a little smugness: "I've heard that guy claims to be erudite. The rumors about him in the south are divine, I have seen a lot of such people, and knowledge is nothing more than a dress and gorgeous clothes for them, and I will debunk his hypocritical appearance, hum. Let him understand that the search for truth is sacred and not blasphemous. ”

The count's daughter had almost seen the end of her punishment for causing trouble to her family, and the confined cottage dangled in front of her. She asked, worriedly, "What did you ask him, Kiara?" ”

"Hehe," the little girl smiled slyly, and she pushed the thick lenses of her glasses and replied a little smugly, "nothing, just some ancient characters." ”

Enid stared at her suspiciously. I was a little skeptical that my companion would really be so soft-hearted.

Sure enough, the little girl said, "But a friend of my teacher's asked him to find these words from some stone tablets." In order to excavate the stone slabs, my teacher and I spent a long time on the cold and boring Balta Plateau. Teacher, he is an authority in the ancient language world, but he can't quite recognize all the words on those stone tablets, so you just wait to see that guy lose face. ”

Enid knew who the little girl's teacher was, and thought to herself that since she couldn't even recognize the master, it seemed that the earl would not be ashamed even if she couldn't recognize it, but of course she didn't dare to say it, so as not to make the eldest lady change her mind again.

Outside the carriage, Brando was taking the note from the servant, and he couldn't help but smile dumbly when he glanced at the tadpole-like ancient words on the note.

Isn't this what is on the ancient stone tablet?

The first clue of the War Slate -

These tablets were excavated in advance by the clues he provided to Tulaman, and it was only when he asked about anything else, but it was the words on the tablets. The words on this stone tablet used to make a lot of noise on the forum, but in the end, a master of level 16 of ancient language knowledge in their guild wore a scholar artifact with +3 linguistic skills - he could recite it even with his eyes closed. He put down the note, and without even thinking about it, he said to the servant in front of him:

"Tell your young lady, the fragments of the firmament fell to the ground as the towering pillars collapsed, and the whispers of dust and wind were recorded on them—"

A few minutes later –

"Chiara, did he guess right, Lord Count?" Enid looked at her companion with some concern, she had been staring at the contents of the note motionless for a few moments.

"He didn't guess." The little girl threw herself out of the carriage, pushed away the servant who had come to hold her, and ran out in a hurry. Brando didn't expect that it would come out of the carriage as if she was still changing her teeth, in the words of a standard villain, it was a milky yellow-haired little girl, and the other party was wearing a pair of thick bottle-bottom glasses that didn't match her cute face, frowned at him, and asked him, "Hey, how do you recognize these words?" ”

Don't talk about aristocratic etiquette?

"May I ask who you are, little lady?" Brando was still a little unhappy, but when he found out that he was such a little girl, he was no longer angry, and he was not bored enough to worry about children.

It was only then that Kiara seemed to realize her faux pas, but she snorted softly. He replied: "Count de Dove is my father, Empress Anna is my aunt, and my brother is Levin?" O'Neson? Duke Siphah, you must know who I am, right? ”

What kind of messy relationship is this, Brando looked at this high-spirited little Lori, and it took a while to sort out her clues, and asked, "You are the representative of the Sifah family?" ”

"It's the former royal family," the little girl corrected, "almost, but I don't want to go to the Empire, can you convince me?" ”

What a spoiled little girl. Brando thought to himself, and he shook his head, "I can't convince you, otherwise you can go back first." The eldest son of the king is a kind man, and he must not blame his sister. ”

"Hey, it's so strange that you still call my brother the eldest son of the king, it's unruly for you to call me that, you know. Aren't you afraid that Her Royal Highness will trouble you, oh, I see," the little girl's eyes flashed, and she replied proudly, "You don't take that little princess in your eyes at all, do you, or you support Brother Levin's ascension to the throne." The Corcova family has lost their sword, and the loss of the throne is a matter of course, and history is a cycle. The time has come for the revival of the Sifah dynasty, and besides, my brother is much more powerful than your princess, and that little princess will only calculate how to sell herself for a good price and marry a husband who wishes, so as to revitalize the royal family of Corkova. Superficial and tight. How can the revival of a nation be in one family and one room? Well, I guarantee that you won't just be Lord Count in the future, people will call you Lord Duke. ”

If it was someone else who said this to Brando, Brando promised to punch him to the ground and couldn't get up, but instead it was a milky little Lori who persuaded him so seriously, only to make him feel crying and laughing, this little guy didn't even change his own teeth, but a little girl princess called Griffine, as if Her Royal Highness, who is seventeen years old this year, seems to her to be milky and undry.

"Miss, if you want to go to the empire, I can help you write a letter to prove that you are unwell, as for the rest, I am really not interested in discussing." Brando had to reply.

But the little girl didn't necessarily appreciate it, she shook her head and said, "I'm in good health, I don't need you to give me any proof, and besides, you haven't told me why you recognize those words, I must find a way to figure this out." ”

"Well, whatever you want." Brando shook his head, thinking to himself that you didn't say you didn't want to go to the Empire, what is this called?

But Kiara seemed to see this disapproving look on his face, and snorted softly: "I don't want to go to the empire, and I want to go to the empire, there is no contradiction between this." With that, she turned around and trotted all the way back to the carriage with her skirt, and very rudely used her hands and feet to climb the carriage, and said loudly to the count's daughter who was sitting in the carriage and was distracted: "Enid, I have changed my mind, I am going to the Empire, you can go back alone." ”

"No need, Chiara, I-I'll be with you." The count's daughter wanted to cry without tears, when did she say that she wanted to go back, but Chiara's words finally made her breathe a sigh of relief - fortunately, at least she didn't have to go home and be confined, although she didn't know why the eldest lady changed her mind temporarily, but for a while, the count's heart couldn't help but be full of indescribable good feelings for the Count Tonigel, whom she had never met.

Thankfully, Martha was on top, and she quietly drew a sign of a god on her chest.

……

After Chiara and the Count's daughter returned to the party, the people who had been traveling for several days enjoyed a rare night of sleep at the inn, although the city was in an uproar about the theft of the Viscount, but after all, it had nothing to do with them. Although the guards were anxious to copy out all the wealthy merchants in the city, declare them to be a joint venture, and confiscate their property, they did not dare to provoke this large team.

The envoys spent half a day and a night at Fort Tishko, and set out early the next morning, and it is said that until the last the viscount did not find the mysterious thief, so that the area around the Grey Mountains was plagued by the legend of a certain elusive nightingale for a long time thereafter. At first, the image of this nightingale was like a god in the sky, and then he was somehow related to Count Toniger, and even more swore that he had seen the count stealing the things of the viscount, as if he had been on the side when Brando committed the crime, and over time, the image of the nightingale gradually spread into the image of a wise and shrewd little girl, but either way. In short, what they do is to rob the rich and help the poor, and do chivalrous deeds, as if the thieves of the past and present have never found other more meaningful things to do every day, whether they have eaten enough or not.

As for the things that the Viscount lost, there are even more opinions, some say that it is a ton of gold, or a diamond the size of a fist, and some exaggerated claims believe that it is evidence that the Viscount collaborated with the enemy and treason, and most of the people with such malicious thoughts have some kind of grudge with the Viscount, but there is a common understanding that these things are if they are obtained by themselves. How nice it would be. It turns out that most people don't have the noble character to be a thief.

The envoys left Fort Tisko and headed north, but did not enter Corcova, but crossed the border between the Ash Mountains and the Balta Plateau. Directly against the cold wind of the Iron Thorn Mountain Road towards the border of the kingdom day after day, after leaving the Gray Mountain area, there were endless mountains, and there were no human settlements in the vast undulating mountains, and after three days they passed near Wintertalon Fort. It can be said that before arriving in the Empire, it said goodbye to the last region closest to civilization.

Beyond that is the snowy region, which is untouched all year round, is a natural forbidden area between empires and kingdoms.

Haruzer told them some terrible legends about the region, such as the whispers of the undead on the plateau in the night wind, and the lame walker of the highlands, a terrifying wolf-like creature who had lived with his sister in Wintertalon for quite some time, so he knew some of the local folklore. But these stories frightened the ladies of the legation so much that they didn't sleep well for several nights. Brando, along with the little prince, then became persona non grata guests in the carriages, and it was a no-brainer for Brando.

Chiara had been pestering Brando for the past few days to figure out why he knew the meaning of those ancient words, and Brando certainly wouldn't have been able to come up with what if you were all cavemen. I'm at least a sapiens from the future; However, in a chance conversation, when the little girl of the Sifah family asked about his teacher, he used to use the rhetoric of the Bujia people as usual, but he did not expect this rhetoric to work wonders, and after that Kiara disappeared. Hiding in her carriage with the Count's daughter, Brando later learns that she is plotting how to steal the knowledge of the Bugas from him. This so-called truth suddenly made him feel like crying without tears.

The rest of the legation did not have the hard-working spirit of the eldest lady of the Siphah family, and with the exception of Eco and the non-commissioned officer from Yanirasu, most of the pampered descendants of the nobility had been bitter since they had entered Balta, and then began to fall ill one after another, starting with the meatball Mr. Ephram who, because of his greed for some unclean game—which he had his servants find out, of course—began to vomit and diarrhea. Fortunately, there were still priests in the envoy group, and it took a day or two to get him to stop.

Then there was the seven or eight-year-old little Lori from the Grand Duke Golan-Elson's house, who had a high fever, and as a result, Brando, the head of the group, seemed to be a cameo nanny, although a little Lori grabbed her hand and called her brother softly with tears in her eyes, which sounded very good, but the price was that she didn't close her eyes for a few days.

And after the envoys crossed the last mountain on the border of Balta, Yi Qiē seemed to involuntarily quiet down.

Because everyone understands that there is a black sword barrier in front of them.

From the last epoch, it was the gateway to the empire, the last checkpoint to the north of the kingdom -

The majestic mountain peaks run north and south, connecting the two kingdoms together, and in the southeast of the empire lies such a huge mountain system, which is part of the White Mountain system, this mountain range crosses the whole south of Saint-Osor, and it passes through the southernmost part of the four realms at the end of the west, where it forms an undulating mountain group, in the center of this mountain, there is snow all year round, and there are even many large and small stretches of black forest, which is a paradise for archaeologists and explorers, the Dirut Mountains— The mountain range named after the first Wind Elf King, to the west of it is the famous Anzeruta region, which may be confusing to say alone, but it has another name - the home of the Highlanders, the home of the Longblade Lords; To the east of the Dirut Mountains lies the starlit Abyssal Sea, along which are dotted with principalities and kingdoms, one of which is Antobro.

To the north of it is the famous Four-Leaf Clover Plain, where the Wind Elves and the Cruz arose, and where sacred covenants were made.

The Balta Plateau, on the other hand, is just the southern end of this famous mountain range, which gradually closes in the direction of the Korkova Plain, and together with the eastern end of the Broken Sword Mountains, forms a famous pass, which is the Black Sword Fortress.

On this day, the members of the legation finally saw the insignificant fortress between the two majestic peaks from a distance from the high ground, but everyone knew that it was only when you actually came to the bottom of the fortress that you were deeply shocked by the walls of the fortress that were more than twenty meters long—

That's the Imperial Wall.
