Chapter 132: Mira
At the same time as this brawl on the border of the Kingdom of Biberach was going on, thousands of miles away on the island, Mira hummed a song and walked towards the academy's cafeteria.
After asking for a piece of bread, a palm-sized steamed fish, and a soup made from a conch, she found a corner where no one was around, and sat down after putting down the supplies she needed for today's class.
She noticed that she had been eating a lot more recently, perhaps due to the increase in her usual training.
At the same time, she was also worried, afraid that if she continued like this, she would become similar to Cynthia Hermanlik, like a bear.
Then, while eating her lunch, she took out a letter from her pocket from the Communications Bureau a few days ago, and read it for the first time.
"Mimi, are you reading the letter again?" a girl with light blonde hair and a somewhat pale complexion sat down next to Mira, "what is the good news that has made you happy for so long?"
Mira hurriedly put the letter back in her pocket and said to her friend seriously, "I won't tell you." β
"Say!" The girl of the same age as Mira shook Mira's hand and didn't let her eat with a fork, "Who else are we with, if I weren't a woman, you would be engaged to me." β
Mira shook her head helplessly, "Dani, that's just our father's drunken words after he drank too much. β
At the mention of her dead father, Mira sighed inwardly.
"I don't care. The girl, nicknamed Danierys, pouted, "Anyway, how is your brother?
Mira shook her head, sighed and said, "Alas...... Don't think about it, he's ...... It's ugly. β
She already knew about Charles's injuries and disfigurement.
"Huh?!" Daenerys was surprised, "no, how can your brother be so ugly, when you are so pretty? β
"You'll know when you see him, he's so ugly that he wears a mask every day. "He was injured and disfigured not long ago. β
She felt that her friend could be a friend, but she would be a brother and sister.
Daenerys is discouraged, but then she discovers a new world.
"When did you start wearing bracelets?" Daenerys said, pointing to Mira's exposed wrist as she ate, "I think I've seen it somewhere?"
Mira smiled slightly, and her left hand stroked the quaint white metal bracelet on her right wrist, and said, "This was given to me by Charles, saying that I bought it in an antique store, and I was able to wear it yesterday." β
"No!" Daenerys pulled out a history textbook from her storage ring and flipped to the next few pages.
"That's it!" she said, pointing to a picture of Mira, "it's the Sacred Light Oath Bracelet that disappeared with the Holy Maiden more than three hundred years ago!"
Daenerys's voice was not small, but the students who were eating around didn't care about the legendary artifact appearing in the cafeteria.
"How is that possible?" Mira smiled and shook her head, "When I first came to the island, there were at least five stores outside the academy gate with such bracelets on their shelves, and I may have an imitation of two or three hundred years ago, right?"
"Well......" Daenerys sighed, "I thought you had picked up the Hallows." β
"You've seen too much. Mira shook her head helplessly.
Charles didn't tell her about going to the demon territory, but only said that he had met a dragon who knew the ancestors of his family, and this bracelet was half bought and half given from the dragon who opened a shop and sold antiques.
Daenerys' voice seemed to be unstoppable, and she ate her meal while talking to Mira about the gossip news in the academy.
Mira listened quietly, occasionally replying with words such as "yes" and "so" that didn't cool the atmosphere.
Daenerys is very well-informed, and she can know the news in the knowledge city and on the outer continent as soon as possible.
It's just that she pays more attention to all kinds of gossip news.
"You know what?" Daenerys suddenly became excited, "I heard that King Auston I of the Kingdom of Ryric has recently been in a big rage and smashed everything on the desk. β
"Huh?" the news took Mira by surprise.
The story of Auston I Ryrick was widely circulated in the Knowledge City, and even Mira heard a lot.
In 1906, when Auston I was five years old, he was "accidentally" knocked into the river flowing through the royal capital by his uncle's knights, and then lost his sight in time for rescue.
Two years ago, in 1917, the king of the kingdom of Rellik died of illness, and the younger brother of the king thought that his brother would have no heirs and the throne would fall into his hands.
Auston I, who was attending classes at the Wisteria Academy incognito at the time, asked for a leave of absence from the academy, and then returned to China to quell the rebellion and ascend the throne.
At this time, the world knew that after Auston I fell, he was washed up in the territory of Viscount Adonis, not far downstream, and it was Viscount Adonis who saved him at that time.
The old Viscount of Adunis, who was loyal to the former king, took him in in the name of a distant relative, and secretly informed the former king.
The first king thought that Auston I would only usher in a second assassination in the royal capital, so he asked the old Viscount Adonis to secretly raise Auston I.
But in 1911, the year Charles was born and Auston I was ten years old, Auston I's uncle noticed something wrong with this distant relative of the old Viscount Adonis, so he launched an assassination operation.
During this action, the old Viscount Adonis sacrificed his life to block a blow for Auston I and was wounded and poisoned, and soon after, the old Viscount Adams "died of grief and grief in the memory of his deceased wife", and the title of viscount fell to his two-year-old son.
At that time, Andrei Rhein, a knight of the Viscount of Adonis and a swordsmanship teacher of Auston I, fled with Auston I all the way to the Knowledge City.
During his six years in the Knowledge City, Auston I, who changed his name and surname, relied on his brilliant mind, elegant temperament and handsome appearance to attract a group of followers.
At a dinner on the night after returning to the royal capital, Auston I accidentally dropped the crystal cup in his hand to the ground, and a group of people rushed in from outside the banquet hall and chopped up his uncle and his followers.
It is not a small piece of news that Auston I, who is synonymous with elegance and calmness in the knowledge city, has become so popular.
"What's going on?" asked Mira, curious, a few years ago she had heard her grandmother and grandfather mention something about Auston I, who had changed his name at the time.
Daenerys cocked her nose, "I won't tell you unless you tell me what is written on that letter of yours." β
"Oh. Mira continued to drink the soup, "I'll ask my grandmother another day." β
Daenerys blinked, and then she remembered that Mira's grandmother was naturally well-informed, and Old Lady Redkin would definitely know about this.
So she was deflated and said, "Did you know that the knight of AndrΓ© Rhine has been given a knighthood by the current Viscount of Adonis. β
"Ah?!" This time Mira was even more surprised, nobles rarely punish vassals for taking away titles, usually they say such things just to scare people, in order to make excuses for more money.
Daenerys continued: "When Auston I heard the news, he immediately rushed to the house of the Knight of the Rhine himself, and he also took with him the title of a baron and the position of deputy head of the Royal Knights. β
Then Daenerys shook her head regretfully, "It's a pity that he went one step late, a few days ago a team of griffin knights from the Bischberg Kingdom came to the house of the Rhine Knights, and they brought the baronial title of Linda Bischberg, the fifth royal daughter of the Bischberg Kingdom. β
Mira suddenly realized that it was Auston I who had been cut off, and it was still someone who had great kindness to him who was intercepted, no wonder he was so angry.
Speaking of Linda, Mira remembered that Charles mentioned her in a line at the end of the second letter, and then wrote about Diana in half a page, and the last half page plus two sheets of paper were all about Sister Momiji.
She asked Daenerys, "Do you know anything about that Diana in Wisteria Academy?"
Daenerys's face darkened, and she said with a disdainful face, "I'm not interested in asking about a civilian. β
Then the expression on her face changed, and she asked with a little excitement, "Mira, will you come to my house to play during the New Year's holiday?"
Mira thought back to the itinerary mentioned in Charles's letter, and replied, "At that time, I am going to go to the Elven Court in the south, and I think I will have the opportunity to visit your family." β
"That's great!" Daenerys said happily, "at that time the sugar cane in my field was harvested, and I invite you to drink fresh sugar cane juice!"
