Chapter 10: The City of Garth

Later, although Brunei tried to drive the system out of the body, as the system said, it is not so simple now. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info so far, Brunei has no choice but to accept his fate, and think about it carefully, the current situation is no different from what he imagined before, the reason why he feels very uncomfortable is just because the system told him that he missed a better opportunity.

However, from this incident, Brunei clearly experienced the bad taste of the system, and his wariness of the system rose to a new level. Not only did he not give up his efforts to make his own magic emblem, but he rejected the teaching plan proposed by the system, and he studied the relevant knowledge of magic hard, and even the so-called "skills" that he had been ready to choose before, but now he has not even touched it.

Regardless of what the system actually thinks, it seems to be very unhappy with Brunei's lack of skills, and it keeps harassing Brunei's mind day after day. But in fact, it is precisely because the system attaches so much importance to this matter that Brunei, who is already wary of the system, refuses to master these skills through the system.

Before I knew it, five days had passed. During these five days, Brunei devoted almost all of his time to the study and study of magic, except for eating and sleeping, and playing with Sue for a few hours. Although he was still only a magic apprentice and could only use a pitiful few level 0 spells, he actually dabbled in the use of even level 2 spells.

This means that as long as he registers in Gars City and successfully recruits two or three magic squires after obtaining permission, he will become a rare mage apprentice who can use level 2 spells, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a genius in a thousand.

With this in mind, even Brunei, who didn't succeed in drawing the magic emblem until the day of the test, was much more likely to recruit a magic attendant. Brunei loves the feeling, doing everything he can to create the best conditions for a thing and then watching it work out as a matter of course. So far, there has never been a failure - at least, it doesn't seem to be.

"I've been to Gars twice. Sitting on the bullock cart, looking at the scenery on his side, "I remember the first time I went to Gars City with my dad - I walked a long way with Sal." ”

"Huh?" Sal felt a little confused, "why did you suddenly talk about me?"

"Huh, is it?" Su smiled and looked up for a moment to recall, "Oh, I don't remember you entering the city—"

Brunei also laughed: "Actually, I don't remember that time very clearly, after all, we were still too young at that time." It's like, I can't even remember what my parents looked like now. Ha ha. ”

At the moment of "......" and "......", the air on the ox cart seemed to be filled with the smell of embarrassment.

["Haha" You're big, I'm! Suddenly you're talking about something, retarded! Do you know what atmosphere is, my brother!]

Brunei blinked, his face showed a little doubt, and scratched his head with a wry smile: "Did I say something wrong?"

“...... No, nothing, haha. Sue laughed cheerfully, and after slightly dissolving the original awkward atmosphere, she quickly shifted the topic away from the memories of the past, and said with a look of anticipation, "Well, this time in the city, I have a lot of things I want to buy, such as clothes." The money may not be enough, and when the time comes, it will be up to you?"

Brunei nodded haughtily, patted his chest before Sal and said, "This time the expenses are all on me!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, you're still eating in the whole village?" said Sal, who had shaken off his previous awkward atmosphere, regrouped and put on a cold face again, squinting his eyes.

Brunei smiled evilly, ignored Sal's repeated pushes, and forcibly hugged his shoulder: "I said, little Sal, your brother is now a serious magic apprentice, and he is already a person with an income." As for you, you're only fourteen years old, even though you've already put on the magic emblem, aren't you? After all, you're just a schoolboy!"

"Big brother who is already an adult doesn't invite guests, do you want you to be a little kid?" Bruneith grinned happily.

Sal rolled his eyes, but didn't resist or say anything, just lowered his head helplessly.

Compared to the village of Thar in the empire where they lived, which had nearly 100 villages with the same name, Garth City was not only unique in name, but also much more luxurious than Taal Village in every sense of the word.

The height of each building is at least two to three floors, and the most eye-catching are the two tall buildings of the City Lord's Mansion and the Gals City Mage Administration, and I am afraid that it will take more than ten Brunei Si to be able to see the top. Not to mention the six-man high, thick stone walls that surround the entire city, and the manpower it consumes is completely unimaginable for Brunei today.

After walking through the imposing and heavily guarded gates, you will be greeted by a large number of intact stone paved roads, and bustling crowds that at first glance are more numerous than the entire Thal village, flanked not by wilderness or scattered huts, but by dense buildings, most of which are open gates, selling things that Brunei has eight CDs that cannot be named.

Although Brunei thought he had been mentally prepared for a long time, he was stunned for two seconds and couldn't help but sigh: "It's spectacular." It's worthy of Garth City. ”

Su smiled and nodded: "It's really crowded." After all, these days are the triennial 'New Mage' Festival, and people who are more idle will come to the city to join in the fun. If it weren't for these two days, there wouldn't be so many shops and stalls. But don't be stunned. The 'New Mage' Festival is a festival for those who have reached the age of 16 to register as a 'New Mage'. But are we the protagonists?"

Sal, who was also stunned with his mouth open just now, now glanced at Brunei Si as if he was very dissatisfied, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and snorted coldly: "Don't you feel ashamed of this look that you haven't seen on the market? Don't you notice? People around you are looking at you strangely. ”

Brunei smiled and nodded at Sue, then looked around, only to realize that perhaps because of Sue's 'New Mage' festival, everyone in the city, including those who came from the surrounding villages, was wearing brand new clothes, and the one he was wearing was a little conspicuous in comparison, which was very patched and barely clean at best.

However, as mentioned before, Brunei actually only has this one dress. Brunei Darussalam, who lived such a life, didn't care at all about this level of vision, he just smiled calmly: "Really, aren't they envious of Su for making my clothes so beautiful? Don't you think so? So, Sue, what do you think?"

Su's face turned red and he pushed him: "I, I'm not trying to help you mend your clothes." It's just that I tore your clothes that day as an apology-" In the middle of speaking, Sue suddenly realized the ambiguity in her words, and her face was as red as fire, and for a while, with her wit and maturity, she didn't even know what to say.

Sal pursed his lips, looked to the side, and coughed violently.

Su got rid of his previous shyness and said with a smile: "Okay, don't guess either." They looked at Brunei, just attracted by his height. ”

Speaking of this, Su rolled his eyes, grinned into Brunei's ear, and said in a mocking tone: "There are still a few young ladies talking about you, saying that you are very handsome?

Brunei first looked at Sal, who was looking at himself and Su a little unpleasantly, and smiled evilly, seeing that Sal was unhappy but forced to endure this and not speak, he smiled proudly, and then scratched his head: "Actually, I'm not that handsome." ”

[I'm sorry to bother when the three of you are in the mood for a conversation, but, little Brunei, how about making an inspiration decision now?]

Bruneisi's face only changed for a moment, and soon he returned to normal, and while continuing to talk with Su and Sal, he secretly asked as if he was a little irritated in his heart, "What did you say?"

The so-called inspiration judgment is 1D100 based on your intelligence value - that is, the method of determining a random number between 1 and 100. With your intellectual attributes, inspiration is a sure success, isn't it?

Brunei frowned imperceptibly, made a casual excuse, broke away from the two of them, found a dark place, and whispered: "Don't change the subject! I'm asking you what you're saying about this -- or at least you should tell me what this decision is for, right?"

[Well, inspiration judgment, as the name suggests, is to judge your inspiration. As for what the hell is going to be done -- I'm sorry, but I'm not going to tell you what the verdict is about until you're done. 】

Brunei's brows furrowed even tighter, and after thinking carefully for a while, he finally said coldly, "That's enough." Do you think I'll still believe you? Don't bring up such inexplicable things that are suspicious no matter how you look at them! I'll tell you plainly, from now on, I won't even pay attention to anything you propose unless I feel the need for it!"

[Oh, it's really ruthless to be so rude to your own golden finger...... But, hey, it's kind of funny. 】

Bell Bailey did not have the habit of riding in a horse-drawn carriage in the city. This is not to say that he is at the bottom of society - even in the capital, he can go to the banquet of the nobles below the duke, even if he wants to enter the duke's palace, he only needs to inform him, and so far no grand duke has stopped him for any reason.

His reason for walking around town is simple. On the one hand, he didn't need a carriage to travel so quickly in such a small area of the city, and on the other hand, his profession required him not to ride in something as striking and relatively isolated from the outside world.

Bell Bailey, twenty-two years old, male, is about to marry the daughter of an earl he met a while ago, and is now part of the Imperial Special Administration. His fiancée's family has been friends with the Secret Service for generations, and she was destined to marry someone from the Secret Service the moment she was born, so given that she is beautiful and Bell does not have any disability at the moment, the two of them can be said to be in love.

Minister Reims also valued him and took him as a confidant, and because of this, he had the value of marrying the earl.

All in all, Bell Bailey is a young, promising, and capable young man.

Like most of the young people of the Empire, he had an almost blind admiration for His Majesty the Emperor, and he was also full of pride in the mighty Empire, and his loyalty was unquestionable. However, as Minister Reims's confidant, and also an agent of the Special Management Department who has benefited a lot under the Minister's cultivation, he is not afraid to do some private work for Minister Reims - such as this one.

Strictly speaking, his actions at this moment are in violation of the imperial decrees, but he really can't see how this will damage the empire. To explain this, we have to start with the founding of the empire, which would be too complicated.

To put it simply, when the agents of the Special Management Department and the selectors of the Ministry of Education are trained, they will inevitably take out three strips of cloth with a special magical atmosphere for them to feel. It's not a test of their perception - because those who fail before the training have already been screened out, but just let them imprint these three breaths in their minds.

"Once discovered, immediately the fastest way you can think of is to report it to His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty the Emperor will kill anyone who has this kind of aura. His Majesty's plan is to 'rather kill the wrong than let it go', as long as it is reported, it will be recorded as a first-class merit immediately. ”

When he first heard this, Bell believed that everyone should have been very shocked and very serious about it. And the first-class merit is really very fascinating, even with Bell's loyalty, he also imagined such a thing as lying about the situation to deceive the first-class merit, but later considering that His Majesty's discernment of the emperor will eventually see through all lies, he finally regretfully gave up this idea.

Later, when he entered the special management department, he learned that in the five hundred years since the founding of the empire, there had never been a report of suspected discovery of these three breaths - except for rumors, some people faintly felt similar breaths in His Majesty the Emperor himself. So his mind in this regard faded, and he accepted that "this matter is the white lie that His Majesty the Emperor has asked us all to be vigilant and always be on the lookout for the white lies told by the breath of anyone around us." "This is a very popular statement right now.

It is said that the previous night Minister Reims had received an urgent special report from a selector who was almost sixty years old, that one of them had been found in this place close to the border of the Empire. Bell didn't know the old man named Sid, but he guessed that the old guy was probably incompetent—he was almost sixty years old and had been working as a selector, and how incompetent—he saw no hope of promotion, and when he was about to retire, he suddenly remembered what he had heard about when he was younger, and sent a letter to try for that first class.

It's just a pity that the teenager he reported, although he lives in a small village on the edge of the empire, his parents are high-level magic attendants of some high-ranking official and cronies of the empire that he can't imagine. Although according to the procedure, Minister Reims should immediately report this news to His Majesty the Emperor, but considering this relationship, the Minister temporarily suppressed it and sent Bell over to find out.

"There's no way around it. Who would have thought that a random kid in such a hellish place would have something to do with such a big person?" Thinking of this, Bell couldn't help but feel sorry for Sid, and then, in his afterglow, he swept a person.

That person was very eye-catching. Dressed in a shabby cloth garment, he stood out among a crowd of people in new clothes, and his face could be said to be quite handsome, and most importantly, he was very tall, tall enough to show his tattered clothes and handsome face completely in front of the eyes of people who were far away.

"This stupid big guy with a smirk on his face, like-" At the moment of remembering who this person was, Bell suddenly felt a faint burning breath, as if poisoned, making his whole body tingle a little, this feeling was exactly the same as the breath of the first strip of cloth he felt during training four years ago!

But that feeling soon faded away.

Carefully following the combination of two men and one woman, and had an "accidental" collision with the stupid big man, at this moment, he carefully probed his magic emblem with a special method, but he couldn't feel anything.

“...... Delusion, is it?" Bell read suspiciously, staring at the three people who were drifting away, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper, "Is it because I found out that he was the illusion that he was the young man, and he was eager to make meritorious contributions for a while?"
