"Miss Rosie...... How could I be here? Didn't I just talk to ........." Ellie woke up and found herself lying in her room. She asked in surprise when she saw the girl sitting next to the bed.

Rosie barely squeezed out a smile on her face and said, "You fainted from exhaustion of physical strength during the battle with Rodlis. ”

It was night, and the night sky was full of stars. The room was quiet, except for the crackling of the fire.

Magical apprentices are physically and mentally exhausted due to excessive mana consumption. After making sure that Ellie was okay, she walked back to her room and collapsed on the bed.

Firin and Loras had come to visit the girl before, and now they had gone back to their rooms to rest.

"Really? I remember that Master Evan asked us to play two against each other, but I can't remember anything that happened next......" Ellie felt a little headache, and her face was still very weak.

"You really don't remember?!" Rosie looked at the girl in disbelief.

Ellie shook her head blankly, the silver hair in her ears lazily falling over her shoulders.

Rosie is a gifted magical genius with far superior intelligence and understanding. If it weren't for knowing this beforehand, no one would have believed that such an expression would appear on the face of a little girl.

"Okay......" Rosie shifted unnaturally, her eyes became serious, and she said, "One thing I have to ask is why your eyes suddenly turned silver?"

"Huh?" Ellie was stunned for a moment, then continued, "Miss Rosie, you mean my eyes turned silver?"

Rosie couldn't help but be embarrassed when she heard this, it seemed that Rosie really couldn't remember anything, so she had to sigh lightly and stop asking.

"I've just taken a closer look at the short bow you kept in the courtyard, how did you get it?" said the girl, pointing to the wooden table against the wall.

Bai Langong was lying quietly on the table at the moment, his whole body glowing with silver-white brilliance.

"It was given to me by a strange old woman, saying that she had returned it to its rightful owner. Ellie recalls Curry's night and whispers.

"I'm afraid you haven't realized—"

Rosie got up and walked to the wooden table, touched the cold bowstring of the white blue bow with her fingers, and whispered, "This is an artifact......"

"Huh?" Ellie even suspected that something was wrong with her ears.

"This short bow contains unimaginable power, enough to be compared to a powerhouse who has stepped into the Sanctuary!" Rosie's tone was tinged with fear.

"W-is this true?!" Ellie didn't react for a moment, her head a little cloudy.

The girl seemed to remember something, and suddenly said, "That old woman seems to be wearing that coat of arms in subspace!"

Hearing this, Rosie's face suddenly turned extremely pale.

"Merlin......" Rosie murmured as she returned to the bed and sat down.

Rosie's eyes widened, and she exclaimed, "Merlin, is that the magician that Lord Evan said he was talking about?"

"Hmm. The girl was taken aback when she heard Ellie's affirmative answer.

Merlin wouldn't give the artifact to Ellie for no reason, and the reason for helping the Child of Prophecy is obviously not convincing.

Film's background is also full of mysteries, what is his relationship with the coat of arms engraved with the pentagram?

It seems that we will have to talk to him about this when my father returns.

Rosie couldn't have imagined that her father's old friend would be Merlin, the great magician of the Megatron Continent eighty years ago!

——

Before the start of the Unification War, court magicians were not part of the Magic Guild, and all actions were carried out under Merlin's orders.

After the outbreak of war, the Magic Guild submitted a petition to Julius Caesar to compile the power of the magicians, and due to the urgency of the situation, the court magicians were also thrown into battle.

Rui Xiu was the president of the Magic Guild at the time, and he had always been at odds with Merlin, so he took the opportunity to denigrate Merlin's reputation.

In the imperial capital and even in the entire south, it was rumored that the Merlin family was cultivating evil black magic, and people were panicked for a while.

Caesar, in the midst of protests from all over the country, had to announce the removal of Merlin as prime minister.

And the initiator of this incident, Reciher Fisdal, became the biggest winner and was naturally elected as the next chancellor of the empire.

The relationship between Caesar and Merlin deteriorated further, and Edward and Brandon were away on a mission at the time, unaware of the changes taking place in the imperial capital.

——

At the northern border of the empire.

The afterglow of the setting sun was sprinkled on the faces of the soldiers, and the base camp of the Titan Army was set up in a clearing ten miles outside the city, with a vast forest to the west.

Shiloh sat at a long, narrow wooden table, looking down at the topographic map in front of him.

The tent was very simple, with only a few clean clothes and wooden barrels with clean water. The soldiers on guard are idle, and you talk about the world one by one.

"It seems that the war cannot be fought for the time being, but it should not be rash. Shiloh muttered to himself, staring at the plain carpet.

Previously, due to the wrong decision of the commander, the Titan Army lost 5,000 troops in vain. What made Shiloh even more troubled was that nearly half of the grain and grass were also destroyed by the fire.

Now it is difficult to gather the whole army in one place, in order to rest the army and horses, and prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the chaos to attack.

"I don't know how the matter handed over to Owen is going now. Shiloh stood up and walked out of the tent with his head bowed.

——

"Shhh~ Be careful! Don't be found by those guys. Owen hid in the bushes at the moment and said in a low voice.

In order to block his conspicuous bald head, he also deliberately put on his hat.

At this moment, there were three warriors who were good at stealth, and they were watching the direction of the enemy camp with a wary face.

The gates of the enemy camp were guarded by about a dozen soldiers, and a small team patrolled back and forth not far away.

Dig deep into the enemy camp and spy on the enemy's next move—that's what Shiloh gave him.

Owen hunched over, looked at the patrol team, and gestured forward. The three warriors near nodded and immediately dispersed.

The next second, Owen appeared behind a soldier at the door.

The poor creature was not aware of the approaching danger, and his eyes were still staring blankly ahead.

Owen stretched out his left hand and quickly covered the other's mouth, and before the soldier could struggle, he slit his throat with a dagger.

"Who are you! How dare you—" Several soldiers around him, noticing that their companion had fallen, immediately drew their weapons and roared at Owen.

The cries stopped abruptly, and the three warriors who had dispersed earlier appeared behind them in an instant, ending their lives in the same way.

Seeing this, the remaining soldiers unconsciously moved their steps, preparing to flee back to the camp.

In an instant, a few flying blades passed through their throats, already indicating the fate of their actions.

"What person?!" The patrol team in the distance noticed the abnormal movement of the camp gate,

Owen was shocked and quickly hid in the shadows.

——

"Father, why did you call me today?" said Bill, removing his bright silver armor and saluting Roland.

"You accompany me to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Roland said with a smile.

"But ......," Bill hesitated.

"Don't worry, that guy from Shiloh went to the battlefield and won't be able to come back in a short time. Roland straightened his sleeves and walked to the front door on his own.

"Father, what are we going to do in that place?" Bill was a little puzzled by the sudden decision.

Roland turned his head, his face looked very serious, and said:

"Come with me to apologize to Filin!"

——

Owen and the three warriors hid in the grass outside the camp gate again, only a few more corpses were left beside them.

"What's going on?!" there was a commotion at the door.

"It's an enemy attack!! a soldier shouted, and the patrol team in the distance immediately rushed to the door when they heard the sound.

"It seems that the other party is not shallow, and he actually killed our guards silently. A soldier in black armor crouched down and scrutinized the wound on the deceased's neck.

Owen squinted slightly, staring at the black-armored soldiers, looking like the leader of a patrol team.

The black-armored soldier stood up, looked around, and said, "Why do you seem to be missing a few people?!"

"Let's go to the grass and see what's going on!" the black-armored soldier drew his sword and beckoned to a few soldiers beside him.

"My lord, what should I do now?" a warrior beside Owen quickly exclaimed in a low voice when he saw this.

"Don't be alarmed, wait for them to come forward. When we see the opportunity, we will do it. Owen motioned for his companion to calm down, and quietly clenched the spear on the ground with his right hand.

The black-armored soldiers slowed down and slowly approached the grass, and the five soldiers followed behind them vigilantly, drawing their swords one after another.

Several people walked ten meters from the grass and suddenly stopped.

"Wait. The black-armored soldier seemed to sense the breath in the grass, suddenly raised his hand, and said, "Let's go back and report to the general first." ”

"But......" One of the soldiers next to him was a little surprised by his decision.

"Take their bodies back with them. The Black-Armored Soldier turned back to the rest of the squad and said, "You four stay." Stand inside the door and call for help when you encounter danger!"

"It seems that the other party found out. Owen said with a frown.

Hiding in the shadows all the time is not an option, and the only way to succeed in the mission is to take the opportunity to infiltrate the enemy camp.

Owen was sure in his heart, and whispered: "You solve the rest, and the one in black clothes will be handed over to me!"

"Yes!"

The moment the black-armored soldiers turned around, four people in the grass rushed behind them!

In the blink of an eye, the remaining soldiers were eliminated, and when the four people at the door saw it, they immediately ran away.

Before they could take a few steps out, they were stabbed in the back of the neck by a merciless throwing knife, and they fell to the ground stiffly.

"Huh?!" the black-armored soldier's face changed drastically, and the long sword in his hand turned in a different direction and stabbed out behind him.

Owen snorted coldly, took a step back, and restrained his position. With his right hand, he drew his short sword and slashed diagonally to the left.

"Bell!" the sound of iron clashing sounded in the air, and the other three warriors had already surrounded him.

Owen reached out and grabbed the opponent's collar and punched him in the face.

The black-armored soldier was suddenly dizzy and fainted.

Seeing this, a warrior was about to step forward to end his life, but was stopped by Owen.

"Wait! You two tie him hand and foot first. When he wakes up, he might be able to ask for some information. ”

The four of Owen dragged the Black-Armored Warrior into the grass, where they were mottled with blood.
