On the night before the wedding, the castle held a grand magic fireworks display, and the fireworks that rose into the sky decorated the mountain in a colorful way, and everything seemed to the ordinary people below the mountain to be so peaceful and festive. The war seems to be gone, and the sky lit up by fireworks seems to be the dawn of peace.

Allen, who had just finished his retreat, stood at the door of the store with Kevin and a group of others watching the fireworks display, and from his angle, the black castle behind the fireworks was like a fierce beast crouching on the top of the mountain with its bloody mouth open.

"Allen, this time, I'm afraid it's a sea of swords and fire. ”

It was Kevin who spoke, he knew neither magic nor martial arts, lacked the ability to protect himself, and was a burden when he went, so he could only stay behind.

"It's not a sea of swords and fire, it's a vast ocean. ”

Alan laughed, and smiled mysteriously.

"Alan, let me go with you, only I can deal with House, let Stanny stay. ”

Bloom begged, and he was also left behind by Allen, on the grounds that the more than 30,000 troops outside needed to be commanded by someone. This arrangement is understandable, everyone went to the castle of August, who knows if there is any conspiracy outside the land snake of Holland, so it is necessary to leave a person with enough seniority and prestige to command the army to deal with the other mutations, this person is only suitable for Bloom. But Bloom is very worried about Allen's safety, after all, in addition to Herbert, the great magician, Hollanster also has a famous demon sword by his side.

"I'm ready, not to mention the presence of the demon sword, even if Gutesian comes to help, it won't have any effect. ”

"I listen to you. But Alan, you have to be careful, don't be reluctant, as long as we still occupy the ancient city of Aogu, the ancient castle is in our pocket, and there is no hurry. ”

Seeing that Alan was full of confidence, Bloom could only nod in agreement, and finally gave a little uneasy advice.

"Don't worry, I'm measured. ”

Eren looked calmly at the ancient castle hidden in the darkness, and in the depths of his brain, the mental fluctuations that controlled the water magic were rippling slightly. In fact, this feeling has been there since last night, but it is very slight, if it weren't for the extremely sharp perception of Allen's brain after being reborn, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to detect it at all.

"Herbert, what kind of magic array have you laid for me?"

Alan muttered to himself, his heart was secretly helpless and full of anticipation for this old mage who was like a teacher and now had to go to the opposite side.

At dawn the next day, the doors of the trading shop opened, and five carriages departed the courtyard, the first two of which contained people, and the last three loaded nine large boxes of gifts.

Alan was sitting in the first carriage, and he lifted the curtain and looked out. The north wind was blowing, the sky was cloudy, and the air smelled of moisture, and if it weren't for the cold winter season, it was almost suspicious that a heavy rain would soon fall.

"It's going to snow. ”

I don't know who sighed.

Escorted by a troop of cavalry, the five carriages made their way to the gate of the Ogu Villa, where they were stopped by the Tiger Mercenary Regiment. After a routine check, everyone and belongings were transferred to a new carriage and began to ascend the mountain. At the gate outside the castle, they were subjected to stricter inspections, and because they were worried that their subordinates would not be able to do their best, Reinhardt personally led a team to inspect them, and everyone's weapons, magic tools, and even the red magic crystals that Miranda used for decoration were confiscated.

"What is this?"

While inspecting the carriage in which Eren was riding, Reinha deliberately found a long scroll beside Alan, the ends of which were sealed with animal bone-like materials, and the middle material resembled sheepskin, but the texture and texture looked much higher than ordinary sheepskin.

"Gift list!"

Alan said quietly.

"Steven is blessed, the archmage is really generous. ”

Reinhardt reached out and pinched the scroll twice, then laughed.

"Your Excellency the Earl is really dutiful. ”

Miranda, who was sitting next to Alan, deliberately teased.

"Beautiful maiden mage, don't worry, although I can't help you much, I can guarantee absolute fairness, Holland they also don't have any weapons, and Herbert promises not to bring in a magic crystal. ”

Reinhardt shook his long blond hair and smiled in a way that could captivate thousands of girls.

"Of course I believe Your Excellency, because the Reinhardts have always been known as tumblers who do not offend any power. ”

Miranda was not only not fascinated by Reinhardt's smile, but the mockery in her eyes became more obvious, but Reinhardt waved her hand as if she didn't hear her.

In order to ensure the safety of both parties, the main venue of the wedding was chosen in the open space in front of the castle. As soon as he got out of the car, Alan saw a long row of white tents in the open space, with long tables filled with wine, juice and food, and some people had gathered inside.

Alan led the way to the tent.

"Alan, it's an honor for you to come. ”

Twenty paces away from the tent, Holancest's signature loud voice was heard inside, and a burly figure walked out of the hall a few steps, it was none other than the owner of the ancient city of Auglanst - Holancest. However, at this moment, Holland's outfit was very different from before, he had always been a jeweled nouveau riche temperament, he only wore a silver robe with a beautiful edge today, and he did not see a single jewel on his body, and the four or five gemstone rings on his fingers disappeared. The blond curls that had been draped were also tied back with a headband this time, and the wild beard on the cheeks was also shaved cleanly. It's quite like a change of heart and a new life.

"I'm lucky to see you again. ”

Seeing Holland appear, Alan stopped and held out his hand.

"Don't dare to be, this..."

Holancest, who originally wanted to hug Alan warmly, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw Alan stretch out his hand, and then shook his head with a look of annoyance.

"Alan, I know you're angry with me, and I know that everything in the past was my fault, that I was confused, and I listened to the slanderous words of Quentin and Gerald, two bastards, and I regretted it afterwards. I hope you will give me a chance to atone for the wrongs I have done to you. Whether you want to fight the orcs or give freedom to the Godsas, I will promise you, and I will fully support you. Just a word. ”

Hollanster grabbed Allen's hand, his eyes full of repentance.

"My lord, I'm here to attend Steven and Selena's wedding, and we'll talk about the rest later, okay?"

Alan withdrew his hand and replied in a stiff tone.

"Well... Good!"

The glint of hatred in Holance's eyes flickered, and he laughed and patted Allen on the shoulder as he walked inside.

"Alan, long time no see. ”

Herbert dodged out of the tent and offered to greet Allen. Although the old magician's beard and hair are all white, his face is red, giving people a sense of youthful appearance and refreshment. Standing next to Herbert was the demon sword house, as Reinhardt said, House really didn't carry the black longsword that made him famous, but a pair of yin owl eyes above his eagle-like nose flashed like a poisonous snake, making people have no doubt that although he didn't have a long sword, he could still easily strangle Eren to death at any time.

"Meet the Archmage. ”

Alan ignored House, but bowed down to Herbert, and in the face of the great magician with the same name as his teacher, he expressed his respect from the bottom of his heart.

"You're welcome. ”

Herbert hurriedly stepped forward to support Alan and pulled him aside.

"What's the hard thing to say, it must be like this? The Gothians kill each other, the relatives are painful, and the enemies are happy. ”

The old magician lamented as he shook his head full of silver threads.

"Archmage seems to be saying the wrong thing?"

Alan asked rhetorically with a sneer.

"I said the same thing to him, and he knew it was wrong. Alan, can't you forgive him once?"

Herbert asked in a tone that bordered on pleading.

"Archmage, I can forgive him. ”

Alan stared at Herbert in a solemn tone, and just when Herbert was overjoyed when he heard this, he changed his tone and said:

"But the widows and descendants of the mercenaries who starved to death in the Dragon God Mountain will not forgive him, the miners who died in the dark mines will not forgive him, and the Godsians who yearn for freedom will not forgive him. ”
