Avi followed Coral to leave Doret City before the war was completely over, and Bignose Van immediately claimed that he was leaving Avi to take care of some personal matters after leaving the battlefield. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Avi guessed that the other party was going to find his family, but the big-nosed Fan had never mentioned to him that he had any relatives here, but Avi didn't stop the other party, after all, Fan's desire to leave alone had already sprouted when he was in the Moon Shield Mercenary Group. The other party has already completed the task assigned to him by Miss Delia at the beginning, and even the task of assassinating the saint Golia in Doret City is estimated to be only half-pushed, and it is understandable to leave now.

And Avi and Coral returned to the camp where Captain Cypra and the five of them lived temporarily, and General Cypra, Gomon and Jang, who had set off together, had already died and left, which made Avi sigh. Most of the Imperial Army of East Oguna retreated to the camp after Avi and the others had fallen asleep, and when Avi and Coral woke up the next day, they found that there were less than half of the people left in the originally crowded camp!

Coral and Avi wander around the camp after a simple breakfast, Coral seems to be oblivious to the countless wounded soldiers in front of him, while Avi covers his nose and mouth while pulling Coral with his hand, lest the other party accidentally step on the wounded soldiers lying on the ground.

Saresa, who was also inspecting the soldiers in the camp, was bumped into by the two, and Saresa immediately distracted her subordinates and stepped forward and said, "Are you all right? I heard that Captain Sepra and the other team were intercepted, by the way, what about your partner?" she asked Avi.

"My partner has returned to his hometown, and he may never be a mercenary again. Avi briefly explained the matter of their mercenary group, but said nothing about the relationship between Felisty and Delia and Golia.

"Well," Sarisa turned to look at Coral, "since I'm going to be here for two more days, you should go back to the rear first, it's safer there." ”

"I want to follow Sister Saresa. "Coral gestures

Saresa shook her head slightly, and then gestured with a serious expression: "You have to listen to your sister, when you return to the Golden Hoof City in the rear, you can wait for me there, and I will open the camp in a few days and bring back all the soldiers I brought, including their bones." As she spoke, her eyes darkened, and Avi could understand the other party's feelings—if it weren't for the terrifying magical power of Saint Golia, who was thwarting Saresa's army, the city of Doret might have been captured by the Eastern Oguna Empire within three days, and the Oguna Empire would most likely end this brief split.

But now the look in the eyes of the commander of the army spoke for itself, and the hoplites of the East Oguna Empire had to succumb to the strange white lightning, and the armistice was immediately enforced the day after the battle, as it had been decided.

Sango wanted to say something, but Saresa had already turned her head to look at Avi, and said to Avi: "Avi, Sango will be entrusted to you for the time being, take her back to the rear of the southern city, you can choose a city, and I will have someone give you some gold coins later, as a new task for you." After she finished speaking, she nodded to Avi, showing her trust in the young man.

"Yes, Lord Saraza, I'll escort her back to the rear. Avi hasn't decided what he's going to do next, so why don't you just walk south, maybe Felisty and Carrie will suddenly show up and explain everything, or go back to Golden Shoe City and see where she's lived for years. However, Avi was still worried that he would run into Farrell again - Farrell did appear behind him last night, but after he left Doret City, he lost his sights. Could it be that he has already returned to Golden Foot City? If this is the case, even if he wants to sneak into Golden Foot City quietly, he may be caught by the other party and then sent to the Sheriff's Office for punishment.

Coral was reluctantly dragged away by Avi, and an official with a bag of gold coins came quickly, he handed the cloth bag containing a hundred gold coins to Avi, and he also conveyed the intention of the commander-in-chief of Saresa, and immediately canonized Avi as a knight squire in Sky City, responsible for escorting Saresa's sister Miss Sancoral back to the rear.

Avi didn't expect that his dream knight squire would be obtained at this time, it was the honor he couldn't help but want in his sleep when he was a child - and his dream was to be a knight. But the excitement of a moment quickly turned to loss, and now that he was guilty, even though he was canonized as a knight's squire by Lord Saresa, there was still no way to erase the identity of the murderer he had once identified. Moreover, the fact that he did not die in the execution has been discovered by Farrell, and I am afraid that the identity of this knight's squire will never be made public in the Oguna Empire.

Coral noticed the subtle change in Avina's expression, she took the gold coin bag, counted the gold coins inside, and then gestured, "Don't you think there are enough gold coins here?

"No, I'm just thinking about which city we're going to. ”

"Then go to Golden Hoof City, I heard that Golden Hoof City is very rich and prosperous when I lived in the fishing village when I was a child, and this time I followed Sister Saresa to pass by that city, and did not enter it. "Coral seems to have opened her heart after meeting Avi, or maybe she just talks a little more in front of people she knows and trusts.

"Hmm... Let's go that way. ”

After noon, the two officially said goodbye to the camp and set off for the south. Avi began to worry about the old divisions of the other two-color mercenary groups on the way, and he did not see the old divisions of the two-color mercenary group appear by Golia's side during the Battle of Doret, only Filisty and Carrie. Big-nosed Fan had doubted the red-haired girl when she left Doret City, believing that she was the most likely person to betray the entire two-color blade mercenary group, after all, Felisty had always been closer to Golia than to Miss Delia, and she was also one of Golia's magic apprentices. Van even suspects that Felisty has gathered all the old men who were going to participate in the assassination of Golia. The plan must have included Avi and himself, after all, they were nearly suffocated by the illusionary magic when faced with the iron-masked hunchback man - and the one who had hidden his identity and had been with them was on Golia's side.

Avi now thinks back that Jang was indeed a little strange at the time, and the other party was not besieged by the magic of the hunchback man. It's just that it's a bit illogical to say that the red-haired girl is the biggest traitor, if Felistie is really Golia's person, then why did she unite the old ministry to carry out some assassination attempt? Why did she claim that it was Golia who killed Miss Delia? Do so many things just to stir up the revenge of the old ministers, and also plan everything herself?

Avi always felt that something was wrong, but Carrie and Felistie were nowhere to be found, and after seeing Golia and the magical students around her, she also knew how it was impossible for her current ability to avenge Miss Delia. After all, he and Fan have tried, maybe now that he has met Coral and obtained the identity of a knight's squire, it is time to completely get rid of the mercenary identity of the two-color blade mercenary group.

After several days of traveling, Avi and Coral stopped and stopped, and finally made it to the outside of Golden Foot City. However, Avi didn't have the courage to enter the city at the last minute, so he found an excuse and continued south with Coral to another city near Golden Hoof. Coral didn't think much of it, she just thought that Avi wanted to take her to a safer place, so everything was up to Avi's arrangement.

It wasn't until the two of them had been in the city for a few days that news came from the retreating army that Saresa had to return to Grimmko for some reason, and might not pass through here. Sango is a little disappointed when she learns of Saresa's sister's decision, but the messenger also brings Sango a handwritten letter from Saresa.

Avi and Coral immediately opened the letter and saw what it was about.

"My sister may not be able to return to Sky City for a while, so you can take Avi back to Sky City for a while and wait for me to come back. There were still some things Saresa wanted to say to Coral at the back of the letter, but Avi didn't read it, after all, he was only an outsider between the two of them, and it was better not to snoop too much on some things.

After Sango read the letter, she told Avi that she planned to take Avi to Sky City to fulfill her promise before the war. Now that Avi is a knight squire canonized by the East Oguna Empire, Coral said that as long as Avi is willing, after accepting the guidance of knights in Sky City, he may be able to become a real knight and no longer have to wander around like a mercenary. Avi was slightly moved by what Coral said, Sky City was a happy and beautiful city in Sango's mouth, and the people there lived in peace and quiet, far away from the strife on the mainland, and also far away from his hometown Golden Hoof City.

After thinking about it for a day, Avi decided to follow Coral and set off for Sky City, Saresa's home city. Before leaving, he gave a few gold coins to the city's messenger office, and asked them to make many copies of the letters with their whereabouts written on them, and send them to all the cities in the south, and the time limit for the letters was half a year—this was a way for Fan to find himself when he and Fan were separated.

Sky City is located in the eastern and western part of the eastern border of the Eastern Oguna Empire, close to the sphere of influence of the Southern Grand Duke, Duke Pobo, but also a city close to the sea. Avi followed Coral from the western border of the empire, riding horses while playing, passing through many cities that Avi had never heard of, and it took nearly twenty days to reach Sky City.

Sky City is built on top of a mountain range, and there is a particularly high hill above the mountain that is the city's castle. The city has no walls, but it is difficult to walk down the mountain to the city, and the rugged mountain road is a natural barrier. Moreover, it is located in the southeast of the continent, in the eastern part of the Oguna Empire, and the possibility of war is extremely small, so it is no wonder that there are no soldiers on the mountain range, only a few sentry posts are set up at the entrance and exit below the mountain range. In addition to Sky City, there are also villages in the lower parts of the mountain range, and Coral tells Avi that not everyone can adapt to living here due to the high altitude of Sky City.

By the time Avi and Coral stepped into the town of Sky City, Avi was already out of breath, and he kept running his hand down his chest to harmonize his breath with the slightly thin air here. Coral noticed that Avi's lips were a little purple, and she said that this is a situation that happens to many first-time visitors, so Avi should not worry too much about it, and after a while he will get used to it.

Avi noticed that the town was not very large, and the number of inhabitants was not large, and it was simply the size of a small village compared to the Golden Hoof City, where he had lived since he was a child. But the common people here were all at ease, and everyone walked the streets with a very soothing pace, and they did not carry anything in their hands or shoulders, which did not at all look like the appearance of a prosperous and rich city.

Coral seemed to realize what Avi was surprised about, and she told Avi in sign language that although the population was small, they had long forgotten the sense of urgency due to its distance from the whirlpool of strife on the mainland. And the tax revenue here is only 10 percent of that of the capital, Greencoe, so the common people here either need to grow some simple crops to sell, or set up some small family workshops to support themselves. Saresa's sister would often give the loot she had brought back from outside to the townspeople of Sky City, and they would sell it with them, so they didn't lack anything, so they didn't panic about anything.

Coral also said that the climate here is particularly suitable for human habitation, not too cold in winter, and very cool in summer, but because it is located in the corner of the continent and there is no very prosperous market, it does not attract many tourists and businessmen here.

Avi was born in the Golden Hoof City, and has already been to the City of Honor, the capital of the Republic of Marvier, as well as the City of Light and the City of Doret, the streets of which are full of people. But let's not talk about mercenaries here, it is estimated that there will only be a few merchants, and it seems that it is really a good place to escape from the world.

The castle is built on a hill that connects the other three sides of the hill to the entire mountain range below, except for a mountain path in front of it. If Sky City was built at an altitude of 2,000 meters above sea level, then jumping off a cliff from the castle of Sky City would be a fall from a height of 3,000 meters. Saresa chose such a precipitous place as her residence, and such a bold performance is not to say that it is a female nobleman, even if it is counted as a handful of men.

On the way up the mountain, some guards could be seen, most of them recognized the coral, and they didn't look at Avi with wary eyes, giving Avi a feeling that he was very loose on guard. And the more he walked up to the castle, the colder Avi felt, this purported place closest to the sky may be the closest place to the gods, could it be that the gods who live in the sky are not afraid of the cold?

However, Avida didn't expect that the big-nosed fan would appear in front of him at this time, and the other party was also carried by two guards and sent down the mountain.

"Let go of me!I'm a friend of your Lord Saresa!" Big-nosed Fan shouted as he tried to break free of the two guards, but the two muscular guards had completely controlled Fan, and the two of them were much taller than Fan, and Fan's body was now completely suspended.

Seeing this, Avi and Coral immediately ran over, and the big-nosed fan seemed to see the savior, and immediately pointed at Coral and shouted, "That deaf... You must know that girl, too!

After some negotiations, the two guards let go of Fan. Fan immediately retrieved his catapult iron spear from the waist of one of the guards, glaring fiercely at the two guards.

"Why are you here!?" asked Avi, looking at Fan's reddened ears.

"It's not because you... You guys walking slowly?" Fan hadn't seen him in a while, he seemed to have grown a little taller, but he was still shorter than Avi, "I got to this place a few days ago where only birds poop, and this is the second time I've run up the mountain. ”

Coral said that the guards here are actually very strong, and ordinary people do not know the way, and it is very easy to take the wrong path and not be able to climb the castle on the mountain. And the guards seem to be drowsy, but they have been stationed here for ten years, so it is almost impossible to sneak to the top of the mountain.

Fan told Avi that he had seen the letter that Avi had left for him after dealing with his own personal affairs, and he hurried to Sky City, "Don't you think we're missing something?" Fan asked suddenly.

"What?"

"Reward!" Fan said that it would be better to assassinate Golia with Avi or escort Coral out of the city, but now he didn't get anything, so he decided to find Avi first, maybe Saresa would give him some reward.

Avi shook his head helplessly, and Coral decided to take the two into the castle first.

But as soon as the three of them reached the gate of the castle, a fellow who looked like a butler rushed down the castle, and he pointed at Coral and said that he was waiting for Coral to return.

The butler tells Coral that Lord Saresa has not yet returned from Grimmko, but that someone whom Saresa has always disliked has arrived. After asking Sango, she learned that Saresa's half-brother had come to Sky City, and it seemed that someone had sent her.

"That kid is very troublesome, and we have already turned the castle upside down by him!" The butler's temples were gray, and there were many wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, which matched his tone and expression, which made people feel very sad.

"Didn't Sister Saresa's brother always hate this place? Coral immediately asked in sign language.

"It's not because he's been chosen as a hostage..."The butler took a letter from his bosom and handed it to Sango. Coral frowned after reading it, and both Avi and Fan felt that even this secluded high city could not avoid trouble.
