The Duchy of Kaman was a ducal state, and Duke Muscala Mu was in his early fifties and in the prime of his life. The title of Duke Carman originated in the First Continental War and has been passed down in this land for many generations.

The affairs of the duchy were not complicated, the tax officer, the clerk, and the magistrate took care of most of the domestic affairs, the diplomat and the commercial officer solved the foreign affairs, and the duke himself was only responsible for squatting in the castle to eat, drink, and be merry. In fact, this is also the normal life of most of the great nobles.

Duke Mu has a son and a daughter, and the eldest daughter is generally known as Princess Mu, whose real name is Monica Mu. As the first in line to the throne, he assisted the Duke in administering the territory. The Duke also had a younger son, named Royce Mu, whom he generally referred to as Prince Mu. Because there is no inheritance pressure, Mu Gongzi learns knowledge in Wangdu Academy all year round. Since he was a child, he has shown a special hobby, and unlike ordinary nobles, Mu Gongzi likes strange things, including astronomy, geography, astrology, but he doesn't know anything about governing the country and collecting taxes.

Mu Gongzi is in Wangdu College and has a best friend named Cast. That's right, it's our little western lord Koster.

The entire Duchy of Kaman and the royal capital know that the royal capital academy has a towering minaret, and the dome on the tower can open automatically. On clear and cloudless nights, the dome opens and a thick, hard iron pipe sticks out of it and points to the sky.

According to the gatekeeper of the academy, that thing belonged to Mu Gongzi, and its name was telescope, which was used for stargazing, and sometimes I heard that it could also see the blue sun. Anyway, it's amazing, I heard that this thing is called science or astronomy, and most people don't understand. After all, the aristocracy played with things.

In the top of the circle, a young man was at work, a large carved rosewood work table covered with manuscripts and calculus paper, and compasses and sextants tossed aside.

This young man, his face was covered with small freckles, his hair was curly, and he looked like he hadn't taken care of it for many days. The robe on his body was filthy, stained with various paints and oil, staining the gray robe with colorful spots. The young man who was working hard, his attention was completely on the paper, and he was crazy and chattering, and from time to time he rushed to the bookshelf by the wall to find a thick tome and look through it.

At that moment, a crisp bell rang, followed by a mechanical creak, and a few seconds later, a piece of letterhead flew out of a small opening in the wall and landed firmly on the work desk.

The young man heard the bell and "huh", what would happen at such a late hour. Immediately after the letterhead fell on the table, the young man stopped what he was doing, picked up the parchment letterhead, and scribbled a sentence on it: "Venerable Mu Gongzi, your friend Lord Koster has important business to discuss at the Raven Inn in the royal capital, please go as soon as possible." It turned out that this young man was Royce Mu, the prince of the royal capital, who was also a friend of Koster.

"It's Koster, didn't this kid go back to inherit the family property, when will he go back to the royal capital? And what will happen on the big night, it's really mysterious. Mu Gongzi rolled up the parchment, and there was a curiosity in his heart. However, he quickly cleaned up the calculation paper on the table, pushed open the door and prepared to leave.

It is said that Kerst and Mu are classmates of Wangdu Academy, both of them are extremely interested in the geography of the continent and astronomy, and they always mess around together when they have nothing to do. After coming and going, the little nobleman Kerst became a good friend of the principality Mu Gongzi.

So when Koster was in trouble, he immediately thought of his friend. At this time, Kester was sleeping next to the bed in the inn, and Mu Gongzi had to hurriedly board a carriage from the academy and rush to the Raven Hotel in Dongshi because of Koster's letterhead.

"Bang bang, bang bang" A loud knock on the door woke up Kerth. He rubbed his eyes, got up and went to open the door with a hazy expression. It is estimated that Xiao Mu is here. Kerst thought to himself, not noticing that his current image was a little strange.

opened the door, and as expected, Mu Gongzi, who was dressed in a dirty robe, was waiting at the door. However, before Caster could speak, Xiao Mu at the door only glanced up, "I'll go!" Xiao Mu looked shocked, "I said Chester, you killed someone!"

“。。。。 Chester was speechless. Pulled Xiao Mu in, "shhh

"Then what's the matter with your blood?" Xiao Mu frowned.

Kester realized that he didn't know when, his head was covered with dirty blood, and he didn't understand when he got it after thinking about it for a long time, and he was helpless. I had to pull Xiao Mu to the side of the bed and point to the girl on the bed, "No, it's her." ”

"I'm going to be so hot. Xiao Mu couldn't help but sigh. Indeed, the girl on the bed had a seductive figure and a beautiful face, but she was covered in injuries. Xiao Mu really can't find any other adjectives besides "exciting". "Tell me what's going on. ”

"Yes, yes, but you can see how you can save her first" Kerst didn't want to talk too much nonsense, and said bluntly.

After all, they are all young people, and they are still kind-hearted. Xiao Mu walked up to the girl, examined it carefully, and then stretched out a hand on her chest and chanted a spell in his mouth.

Slowly, a milky white light emerged from the position under Xiao Mu's palm, and then expanded to the girl's whole body. After the white light gradually dimmed, the bleeding from the girl's several wounds gradually stopped, and her breathing became much more stable. Xiao Mu reluctantly let go of his hand, and turned around to meet the strange gaze of Kester.

"No wonder, no wonder, my family's healing technique is quite special, and it can only be played close to the chest. Xiao Mu hurriedly explained. It seems that the position of the hand just now is indeed a little off, and there is no way, this girl's material is too much. "Now you can tell me what's going on. ”

Kerst walked to the bedside, confirmed the girl's condition, it should be stable, took the robe and helped her cover it again, then turned his head and told Xiao Mu everything that had happened in the past few days. Including the arrival of the Adventurer's Guild, the turmoil in the casino, and how he was followed by this girl and brought her back to the room.

Xiao Mu listened patiently and couldn't help laughing, "It seems that you Kester is really lucky with shit, and you can pick up a girl back if you are robbed." ”

"But then again, it's been half a year since you went back, and there was no news, so I thought you would never come back. It's a good choice to be a little lord for a lifetime, I heard that your maid looks pretty good, so I don't want to come back. ”

Kster also sighed helplessly, "You also know the situation of my family, I was sent out since I was a child, and I don't know much about the situation in my family territory." I have to touch it when I go back this time. Fortunately, the housekeeper left by the old man for me was really a nice person, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner. So even if there is no such thing as the Adventurer's Guild Hunter coming to borrow the horse this time, I will find a reason to come back later. After all, I promised you to go to the Grand Canyon next spring to observe the blue sun. ”

After gossiping, Xiao Mu pouted towards the side of the bed, meaning to ask what to do with this girl. Kerst was also very helpless, he and the girl basically didn't know each other, they just gambled a few times together at the gaming table. Now seeing that she is covered with injuries, it is quite pitiful to leave her here.

"Otherwise, I'll send it to you. It's quieter over there, and no one bothers you. Kester asked Xiao Mu in an inquiring tone, and the first thing in his mind was Xiao Mu's observation tower in the academy.

"Okay, carry her to the carriage and go with us. She has been blessed by me, and now she is in good condition and can move. ”

The two of them didn't say much and began to pack up Kerth's things. But when it came to hug the girl, it was really difficult. Xiao Mu frowned, "Why don't I take her over, after all, I'm a little taller." ”

"Less, I don't know what you're thinking, and I don't know where to put my hand just now. "Of course Koster doesn't allow it, Xiao Mu is a little younger, and sometimes he meets girls, which is a bit unusual. However, let's hug it yourself, I always feel a bit of a danger to others. I didn't know just now, just hug it in. Hey, headache. Kerst boasts of a chivalrous demeanor, and he doesn't know what to do in the face of this girl.

In the end, the two compromised, one lifted his feet and the other shoulder, and carried the girl into the carriage. Kester was still not at ease, but still found a rope and tied the opponent's hands and feet firmly.

"As for you, everyone is hurt like this. You don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade!" Xiao Mu said dissatisfiedly.

"No, no, no, the heart of guarding against people is indispensable. I don't know where this girl came from. When she confronted me first, she didn't look like an ordinary person, and I was afraid that she would wake up and do something, so it was better to be careful. You see that you have touched and touched, and you have hugged and hugged, I am afraid that you will suffer a loss for a while. ”

While talking, the two got into the carriage, and with a bang, the carriage started slowly.

The girl in the carriage slept quite smoothly with the slight bumps of the carriage, exhaling and breathing. The frowning brow just now gradually relaxed, and it should be that the situation in the dream has improved. The carriage was tapping forward in the night, and Koster couldn't help but open the curtain of the carriage several times to visit, and he was relieved to see that the girl was stable.

"Xiao Mu, did you notice her ears when you checked just now?"

"Don't tell me, those ears are pointy, a little bit like human. And she's so pretty, I think she may have non-human blood, but it should be thin. Xiao Mu said with certainty.

"I just don't know what happened to us from San Jose. Maybe it's not too much of a nuisance. Kerst was worried.

"Maybe. But it's all saved, don't think about it so much. Anyway, I'm also the son of this country, and I'm at least safe with me. Xiao Mu comforted.

The two didn't say much for a while, and the carriage quickly passed through the city and drove into the royal capital college. The doors of the academy slowly closed again.

Once again, the road in front of the academy was quiet.
