Chapter 123: To the Royal Capital
Xia was placed in a guest room in the castle by Bach Bonnard, and the room looked pretty well and far more spacious and luxurious than the inns outside, and she was a little flattered that the head of the guard had arranged for several servants from the castle to come over, and those servants treated her with the same attitude towards distinguished guests.

She had thought that it wouldn't take long for Alexie to come to her, but she waited until the next morning, and it wasn't until she had finished enjoying the beautiful breakfast brought by the servants that the magical girl finally appeared in front of her.
If it weren't for the fact that the contact of the contract mark showed that this little girl had been staying safely in this castle, she would almost have thought that something had happened to this little girl!
"Well, have you settled with your father?"
Seeing Alexie's figure finally appear in front of him, Natsu carefully observed the magical girl's expression and asked casually.
"Well, after talking, he agreed to my request. β
Alexie's expression was very calm, and there was nothing good or bad in her tone: "If you're ready, Natsu, let's go." β
"Go?"
Natsu was a little surprised by the magical girl's efficiency, and asked strangely, "Where are you going?"
"The Magic Skyship Mooring in Bellianka City. β
Alex said a familiar place name and explained to her, "My father has agreed to let me go to the royal capital on behalf of the Gerald family to congratulate Her Majesty, so we are going to the mooring ground to fly to the capital of Berthampur on the Gerald family's exclusive magic skyship, which was the usual way for lords and nobles to go to the royal capital in the past. Because that magic sky boat has the family crest of the Gerald family on it, representing the nobles of the Quelod Kingdom, the people of the church dare not mess around!"
"Oh, that's it, I'm ready to go, there's nothing to prepare. β
Hearing this, Xia nodded in understanding, and then spread his hands, indicating that he didn't need to prepare anything.
"Well, then come with me, we'll leave right now. β
Seeing this, a certain magical girl's attitude was even more straightforward, and she actually said to leave.
"Huh... Won't you stay a little longer?"
Xia's expression was a little strange, you know, this little girl has been away from this castle for more than ten years, and after only one night, is she going to leave immediately?
She had thought that it was a little too late for the magical girl to come to her after a whole night, but now, she suddenly felt that this time was too short!
"No, you don't. β
Alexie turned to leave, her voice becoming a little cold.
"Your father... Don't talk to him for a while?"
Although Xia's first impression of the Earl of Gerald was not very good, it was only a matter of a certain attitude towards the battle, not the character of a certain earl, although she had only seen the Earl Gerald once, but she also felt that the other party was not a kind and indifferent person, why did Alex treat her father with such an attitude?
Hearing this, Alexie's footsteps paused, but after all, she stepped out without looking back, and the answer was still the same: "No." β
β......β
In this regard, Xia could only sigh secretly and did not speak.
Well, I suddenly felt a little pitiful for a certain father......
Perhaps sensing that there was something wrong with his tone and attitude, after a while, the magical girl who walked in front added: "Because, everything that should be said has already been said." β
"Oh. β
Xia nodded and didn't say anything more.
......
In fact, they were not the only two of them to go to the capital of Berthampur, in order to show that the lords and nobles attached enough importance to the enthronement ceremony of Her Majesty the Princess, it was naturally impossible for Earl Orlanton Gerard to send only the two of them, so in fact, there were actually many people who set off with Xia and Alexie, they were all members of the Gerald family, some were servants, they would take care of her and Alexie's lives along the way, and some were escort soldiers, led by the Bach captain she was familiar with, responsible for the safety of the roadγ
Although the magic airship is flying high in the sky, it seems that there is no danger, but the flying monsters along the way, some bandit groups with anti-air strike means, and even bad weather will pose a certain threat to the magic airship, so it is necessary that someone is responsible for safety protection!
The Gerald family's ability to move is still very fast, in a short period of time in the afternoon and night, they have already prepared everything for the trip, including personnel and accompanying materials, etc., it is obvious that a certain earl is still very clever in controlling his subordinates, there will be no procrastination or failure to give orders to decline, and even, even the chief of the guard Bach Bonnard, who is in charge of the security of the castle, was sent to Alexie's side by the earl, which shows how much this father attaches importance to his daughter.
Therefore, Xia, who noticed this, couldn't help but be even more puzzled about the complicated relationship between this father and daughter.
Their movements were fast, and the group soon arrived at the magic airship mooring, and after confirming that everything was ready, they boarded the exclusive magic skyship with the seal of the Gerald family's family crest, and began to march towards the royal capital of Bethhambour.
"Say something too offensive, Miss Alexie. β
During takeoff, on the edge of the cabin of the magic spaceship, Alexie stood there looking in the direction below, silent, while the Bach Bonnard Captain stood next to the magical girl, and stopped talking for a while, after a while, he seemed to have finally made up his mind, and spoke to Alexie: "The things of the past, Lord Count also had a last resort, you can forgive him, Miss Alexie, he is your father after all!"
Beneath the Magic Skyship, the Lord Earl of Orlanton Gerard was looking at the take-off Magic Skyship, as if looking for his daughter in the cabin, his clothes being hunted by the wind stirred up by the Magic Skyship.
β......β
However, in the face of Bach's chief of guards, a certain magical girl was silent.
Xia naturally noticed this scene as well, she looked at Alexie, then at a certain Bach chief of the guard who bowed his head and sighed, and finally fell on a certain father under the magic skyship, raised her eyebrows, and sat without speaking.
......
There is still a distance between Bethyanka City and the royal capital of Bethambul, and the flight speed of the magic airship is not fast, plus it needs to land in other cities from time to time for supplies and energy power supply, and its flight route is not a straight line, so this makes the original distance even more far.
According to the speculation of a certain head of the guard, it will take at least half a month for the group to reach the capital of Pothampur, which means that when they arrive at the royal capital, there will only be less than a month left before Her Majesty's enthronement ceremony.
However, neither she nor Alexie seem to care too much about this, and a certain magical girl who belongs to the hands of a witch will naturally have other special means.
A few days later, in a clear blue sky, a magic skyship was flying smoothly in a certain direction with the muffled sound characteristic of its magic furnace.
"My mother is not from the Kingdom of Chirod, she is from another neighboring kingdom, Prorentine. β
On this day, Alexie found her, who was bored from the boring flight trip, and took the initiative to tell her about the past: "Mother, she was born into an ordinary aristocratic family in the Kingdom of Prorentine, and as a magician, she came to the Kingdom of Chirod due to the position of the 'Witch's Hand', and in a chance encounter, she met my father, Orlanton Gerald......"
