Sixty-sixth Sulla Liberation
"I'm not mistaken, am I?" asked Muhadi, neither humble nor arrogant.
Tessian and Achille, who were arguing, pretended to look at the stranger, and couldn't figure out his identity for a moment.
"Here it is, my strange friend. It was Ekis who spoke first, in a soft tone, in a welcoming gesture. "The Governing Council is ready to serve you wholeheartedly. ”
Muhati keenly felt that although the Ekis Councillor was very polite and friendly in tone, there was a pride in his bones that was difficult to hide. Such people tend to be willing to make friendly gestures because they are confident that they are high in numbers, but they are inherently difficult to approach. When he was on Earth, most of the councilors he came into contact with were like this, and when he came to Attas, he didn't expect it to be the same, the political family was really a strange creature that could cross planes.
"May I know why your Excellency is here?" Akith looked at the young man, guessing his identity, and the latter was still dressed in the delicate robe that he had just paid a great deal of money for yesterday, with a jeweled dagger pinned to his waist, and he was dressed appropriately and elegantly, just to set off his handsome countenance.
"If what I expected, this young man is a telemagician. Tessian shrugged and interjected. When he shrugged his shoulders, there was still the sound of a krakala, which showed that he was wearing chain mail under his robe. "He, like you, has a kind of condescension in him, as if he is always analyzing other people's faces. ”
"Ah, yes. Akith also said. The boy didn't disguise, and he knew that in front of another psychic warlock, disguise wouldn't have much effect. Therefore, the noble councillors also easily saw that Muhadi was a psychic man. "It was an honour to see my young colleagues here. Are you here to free your slaves?"
"I'm here for myself. Muhadi exclaimed, "That's fine, is it?"
Akith raised an eyebrow in surprise. "It's strange that a small psychic sorcerer can be a slave?" he looked down at the boy's outfit, "...... Good material, the power to carry weapons, does not look like the characteristics of a slave. ”
"I come from an elven tribe in the desert, not a slave in Tyre. Muhathir briefly explained his origins, omitting important things such as his own envoy and the ancient ruins.
Aikis just listened intently, but Muhati felt uncomfortable, as if he had been spied on. It was clearly the noble councillor who was showing his psionic powers to test whether he was telling the truth or a lie. However, it seems that Akith's psionic attainments are not as high as Lyra's, and even Lyra can't directly read his deep memories, and he definitely can't do it.
"Even so, it's a rare permissive. "But I don't care about that, you want to be free?" Did you know that if outsiders can first obtain the rights of the Free People of Tyr, they must swear to serve Tyr until the Witch King forces are eliminated?"
Naturally, Muhati had already inquired about this rule from Kulsum. He also knew that it was in fact just a means to prevent the freed slaves from running back to their original owners. In fact, very few people have actually been drafted because of this. "I know, and I'm willing to take an oath. ”
Tessian nodded, and then he reached out and took out a piece of papyrus from his robe, a charcoal stick, and wrote a piece of text and handed it to Muhadi.
"Take it, this piece of paper proves that you are a free man, protected by the city of Tyre. ”
And so it was? Muhadi took the fluttering paper, and this is the freedom he longed for?" ”
Councillor Ekis smiled, "You can celebrate yourself, but as a psychic mancer, you should know how illusory freedom is, so I don't think there's any need." ”
Aikis is a common view of the mindset among psychic manilocks. Muhadi heard from Lyra that psychic magicians tend to regard all living beings as slaves, even if they are free, they are essentially slaves driven by survival instincts and various **scams.
Muhathir does not agree with this worldview, asking. "With this piece of paper, I can convince my former master that I have been free, and what if I am not recognized?"
"Then you're ready to defend your freedom...... "Tessian stared at Muhadi, "you're also a telemagician, so you don't have the ability to defend yourself at all!"
"But I ......" The teenager felt a feeling of being deceived, what was the difference between this "freedom" and before?
"Of course, Tyr will do everything in his power to protect you. But now we are facing a huge army of people, and we can't distinguish the manpower at all. "...... So I'm going to tell you as much as possible not to be bumped into by your former master. ”
"Besides, I'm building you to join our City Watch. For psionics like you, we're very useful. "Don't forget, as an alien slave, you must serve Tyr in order to qualify as a free man." ”
I didn't expect the other party to really recruit myself, which is embarrassing. It seems that his identity as a psychic warlock has made the other party look at him differently, and I really don't know if I should be happy or not.
"Tessian's person just likes to say cold things. But after getting along with him for a long time, you will realize that he is actually still a person who can still be socied. Seeing Muhadi's embarrassed expression, Aikis explained to his friend, then glanced around subtly, and continued, "If you don't mind, then I'm going to borrow Lord Taisian for a while." ”
“...... We also have, well, important things to discuss. Akis's tone was already clearly sending off a guest.
"Tomorrow this time, report to the City Watch headquarters, and I'll have something for you to do. If Tyr survives this crisis, your freedom will be guaranteed, otherwise it will be just a piece of waste paper. Tessian took the boy's silence as a tacit acquiescence, and with these words, he left with Ekis with heavy steps, disappearing behind the intricate passages of the palace.
Muhadi thought of the guards who took bribes at the gates of the city and the executioners who nailed the living to pillars in the square of punishment. I didn't expect that when I was in the Scorpion tribe, I was free. Now that he is "free", he immediately has an errand to find him, which is really ironic.
The young man thought about the conversation he had just had and exited the palace the same way he came.
That Ekis has some kind of strange aura on his body that can't be distinguished. Thinking of this, Muhati couldn't help but look back at the hall just now. It seems that the city of Tyre is treacherous and unfathomable, and you have to be careful to survive.
