Chapter 20
CHAPTER XX
One of the three kingdoms of mankind, it is famous for its magic and is the main gathering place for human magicians.
The headquarters of the "Magicians' Guild", "Holy Light Church", "Bounty Guild" and "Free Chamber of Commerce" of mankind are located in the capital of the Ofateh Kingdom, "Upanishads".
After Eri, Helen and Orfina leave the Exiled Island, they travel to Upanisha together, which weakens the parting feelings of the friends. He was accompanied by Erry's father, Eva Offast, Grandpa Ivanok Ochrid, the Knight of the Holy Light, Sister Arya, and Erry's "maid" Mier.
With the presence of the two Upanishads, safety is naturally not an issue, so Eri and Orfina have been holding Helen's hands and "chatting" with her along the way.
On the way back, Eri learns that Orfina is the granddaughter of Grandpa Ivanok, and that Eri is not his own grandson. It should be understood from the surname, but countries often create chaos by assassinating important people and members of the royal family in order to weaken the power of other kingdoms.
Therefore, for the safety of Airi, Aili is still the "grandson" of Ivanoko's grandfather, and when he returns to Opanish, Aihua will canonize Aili as a baron and divide the territory. When the time comes, Eri will be able to secretly "operate" in his own territory.
There are ten major families in the kingdom of Ofast, led by the two major families of the royal family, Ofast and Ochrid.
There are also the "Four Assemblies" families, namely the Kohler family of the Free Chamber of Commerce, the Pace family of the Wizards' Guild, the Prod family of the Bounty Guild, and the Ebbinghaus family of the Holy Light Church.
The "Four Nobility" families, the Middleton family, the Marcula family, the Pilatiro family, the Mossen family.
Among these families, the four major aristocratic families are old-fashioned, more selfish, and worry about their territory and power becoming smaller all day long, so they often suppress new nobles, and they are also your main "opponents" in the future.
The four great families, more enterprising and strong, are your main friends in the future. As for the rest, you'll find out when the time comes.
After a journey of more than ten days, Eri and the others finally arrived at the city of Opanisha, a tall and majestic three-tiered defensive wall, which could defend against enemy attacks ten times more troops than their own. The wide Fangcheng River flows with clear water.
At the gate of the city, the city guards standing guard were in good spirits, the guards who checked were serious and responsible, and there was an endless stream of merchants in the past. People come and go, and a prosperous one.
Iva had left early, and as the king of the kingdom of Orfate, he had too much to deal with! Helen also followed her parents, Vest, and Arya to the Church of Light.
Eri, Ofina and Gille followed their grandfather to the city gate, and the captain of the city guard immediately knelt down and bowed down when he saw Grandpa Ivanok and said, "Meet the Prophet, and all the guards, including the city gate, knelt down to pay respects."
Get up!
Your Majesty, the carriage sent to meet you is inside the city gate, please come with me, and lead the way in front of you!
Luxurious motorcades marched through the streets, and all the people were stopped by the city guards. Residents looked up at the convoy and wondered who was riding in it.
This is the convoy of the eight families! It's so luxurious! Some people say, "You're stupid!" Don't you see the royal emblem? This is the king's convoy......
The convoy continued to move forward into the palace. All the ministers of the palace are already waiting here.
As soon as the carriage got out, all the ministers gathered around to greet him. Ivanok nodded in response, and the minister didn't care, still smiling and following. The palace is decorated with magnificence, magnificence, white as jade, luxurious and elegant!
Eri looked around with wide eyes, and said to Orfina in amazement and envy: This place is so beautiful.
Yes, this is the royal palace of the kingdom of Ofast. Orfina replied proudly.
In the main hall of the royal palace, Aihua is dressed in formal attire, wears a crown on his head, and sits on the throne.
See Your Majesty!
All love is exempt!
Thank you, Your Majesty!
Today, the Prophet returns, and the King has set up a special banquet for the Prophet to receive the wind and wash the dust.
The old minister thanked His Majesty.
I heard that the Prophet led his grandchildren around the world to raise the next generation of prophets for the Kingdom. The king rewarded 10 barrels of 100-year-old fruit wine, 100 cattle, sheep and horses, and 10 boxes of gold, silver and jewelry.
Thank you, Your Majesty!
Prophet, I wonder who you have groomed to succeed?
Erie came and greeted His Majesty! Ivanok pulled Eri to the front and said:
I wish you all the best wishes to Your Majesty
Sure enough, he is a talent, smart and clever. This king canonizes you as a "baron" and divides the city of Silo in the northwestern part of the kingdom as your domain.
Wei Chen thanked His Majesty!
The ministers toasted Grandpa Ivanok and congratulated him on the baron.
Grandpa Ivanok introduced the ministers to Eri one by one: this is the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications - Fred Ebbinghaus. Manage the affairs of the whole country!
Chancellor of the Exchequer – Warren Kohler. In charge of the treasury finances!
Secretary of State for the Interior – Bot Pace. In charge of the palace housekeeping!
Chancellor of Justice – Randy Morson. Competent judicial trial!
Secretary of State - Laurent Platero. In charge of national defense security!
Foreign Secretary - Vincent Middleton. Take charge of your own country and your country's affairs!
Secretary of State for Taxation, Richard Marcula. Competent Taxes!
Aili greeted the ministers one by one, and the ministers also praised Aili for being young and promising, and he will definitely be a pillar of the country in the future. There were even people who wanted to help Aili introduce his wife! This frightened Aili and quickly refused!
Eri, who was accustomed to college life, was quite uncomfortable with this aristocratic life, and left early with his grandfather in the middle of the banquet on the grounds that he was tired and needed to rest.
In the Prophet's Mansion, Eri stood in front of the window and looked up at the starry sky! Familiar memories reappeared, but this time with many more companions.
Is love there? Orfina's voice came!
Ai immediately ran over and opened the door.
I was afraid you were hungry, so I brought you some snacks. Orfina came in and said:
Thank you, Orfina.
Orfina asked:
Well, how do you know?
Stupid, because I miss them too!
I don't know, how are they doing now. Aili says:
Hey, don't be so sad, okay? It's only been a few days? Orfina scoffed:
The problem is, I'm going to be separated from you again in a few days. Eri lamented:
Don't do that!, or we'll go play with Helen to-morrow!" Orfina comforted:
Okay! I'm familiar with the environment of Upanishads. Eili replied happily.
You eat, go to bed early, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning!
Can you eat some and sit more?" asked Eri with some loss.
Yo, I can't imagine that our brave Aili is a person who is afraid of loneliness! Okay, I'll accompany you more, but what's the benefit?
Eri blushed and said, "What do you want?"
What good things do you have as a "poor city lord"? Owe me a promise first!
What is a promise?
Stupid, just promise to help me do one thing in the future.
What if I can't?
But don't worry, you can do it.
Oh yes! I promise you. Eri said reassuringly.
How beautiful the stars in the sky are!
Whenever I miss you, I like to look at the stars. And I feel like you're looking at the same stars. So we are not together, but we can do the same thing!
It's a wonderful idea, but it feels good!" Orfina smiled.
In the early morning, the Upanishads are already full of people, showing the prosperity of the Upanishads.
Eri and Orfina held hands and walked towards the Church of Light. It turned out that Grandpa Ivanok was going to send an escort carriage to send them over, but they were rejected by Airi and them, what are you kidding, how can we play with you here?
But for their safety, the guards followed from a distance.
Orfina is very familiar with the environment of Upanishads. Turn left and turn right and soon you will come to the "Cathedral of the Holy Light", where the headquarters of the Holy Light Church is located. Elli and Orfina walked over and took Helen's hand and said to her, "Helen, let's go out!"
The three children walked down the road hand in hand, and Orfina took them to the famous snack street of Opanisha, because here Helen could smell the fragrance and eat whatever she wanted! For Helen, delicious food is one of the few beautiful "feelings" in the world.
Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way! Several guards pushed the crowd away and shouted:
An old woman walks too slowly and is pushed down and crashes into them.
Grandma, are you alright?" asked Eri with concern.
It's okay, it's okay, thank you, kids!
Stop! Eri shouted, and everyone looked at him.
What are you talking about, little ghost?, the guards stopped, turned to Eri, and said:
I said you all stop!" said Eili again loudly.
Yo, the little devil is quite bold, dare us to stop.
Which old grandmother, you stop, don't go!" said to the old woman.
Kid, I'm an old woman, I'm fine, I have to rush home to cook for my granddaughter. The old grandmother said anxiously.
What's going on? Why are you all gathered here? What are you doing? Don't get in my way!" shouted a gorgeously dressed girl.
The guards immediately ran over and said: Miss is a little surprised, it will be fine immediately.
Hurry up and get them out of me, delay my time, which of you can afford it?" the girl said angrily.
Yes, yes, yes. The guards turned around and shouted at the crowd, all of them out of the way.
The crowd dispersed. Only Eri and the old grandmother were left standing in front of the guards and did not leave.
The little ghost turned against you, and he didn't get out of the way. As he spoke, he slapped him!
Eri dodged sideways and kicked the guard in the knee.
The guards fell to the ground, clasped their knees in their hands, and cried out in pain: Ahhh
Stop! What's going on? Another group of guards appeared and asked:
We are the guards of the Platero family, Miss Laura, and this little imp stands in our way and injures our guards. One of the guards pointed to them and said:
Young Master, what's the matter, Miss? Which of the new guards captain asked:
What? Young Master? It's over, he actually did something to the young master of the Prophet's Mansion, and if he doesn't die, he will shed his skin. The guard who fell to the ground thought to himself.
Uncle Mack, you're just in time, these people are tyrannical and bullying civilians. Insults and attacks on the nobility.
This steals from someone else's property. Aili pointed to the old woman and said:
Orfina was taken aback and reminded: Erly, are you mistaken?
That's right, she stole your money bag. Eri said calmly.
Orfina, feeling through her pocket, found that her purse was really missing.
In her left pocket, Eri pointed to the old woman again.
Captain Mike immediately grabbed the granny and pulled Orfina's money bag out of her pocket.
Miss, your money bag, Captain Mike handed it with both hands.
Unreasonable, Captain Mike sent her, and all of them, to the City Lord's Mansion and punished them severely. After saying that, Orfina took Helen and Eri by the hand, turned around and left......
