Chapter 58: The Eve (Part II)
Owen suddenly felt a chill enveloping his heart, and the other party's body exuded a dangerous aura like a poisonous snake. He knew he was being targeted by Victor.
A cold wind blew, and the banner of the Essit Empire swayed with the wind, and it was already midnight, and the temperature around him plummeted.
"My lord, there is nothing unusual here, is there?" the soldier next to him asked, turning around and puzzled.
Two soldiers in the distance saw the fire and hurriedly ran over.
The moment the soldier turned around, Owen saw the right moment, and the figure quickly moved to the back of the tent.
Victor stared suspiciously at the gray tent in front of him, trying to step forward to see if any enemy had infiltrated the camp.
Perhaps it was due to the overwork of the past few days, and he suddenly felt dizzy, and he had to stop and rub his temples with his fingers, and the pain was slightly lessened. Suppressing his doubts, Victor waved his hand weakly at the soldiers, and turned to walk towards his tent.
Owen sensed that the other party's energy had gradually moved away, and immediately breathed a long sigh of relief.
Once the enemy discovers that the commander of the Titan Legion has infiltrated his own base camp, it will inevitably cause great disturbance. This will not only expose the whereabouts of the other three fighters, but will also alarm the nearly 10,000 soldiers in the Essit base camp.
After all, Victor is a master of spearmanship who is about to step into the Sanctuary, and his clumsy marksmanship cannot compete with him at all, and if he is not careful, he will probably be killed by Victor on the spot!
Although Owen's strength was only of the sixth order, his years of actual combat experience had given him how to skillfully hide his aura.
The red-robed man walked to the tent, straightened his clothes, pulled up the heavy curtains, bowed his head and walked in.
"General, you're back!" a coquettish voice sounded from inside the tent.
The woman was lying on her side on the soft fur, looking at Victor's tall figure with tender eyes, and there was a hint of laziness in her tone.
Xana was wearing loose light blue pajamas, with long blond hair casually on her shoulders, her facial features were very delicate, and her graceful figure loomed.
"Nana, you can go back tomorrow. The red-robed man sat down beside him and leaned over to give her a tender kiss on the forehead.
Shana is Victor's lover, and this time he was ordered to come to the front line, so in order to prevent her from being left alone in the north, he had to settle Shana on the front line with her.
"Vic, what's wrong with you all of a sudden?" the woman asked, a little surprised, and reached out to take off Victor's coat.
"The border is too dangerous, reinforcements from the Titan Empire will arrive at any time. And if you stay here, I can't let go of my hands and feet. Victor stroked the other's hair and smiled helplessly.
"But I don't want to leave......" Nana said with a pleading expression, her watery eyes that made people feel pity.
"Obedient~ When I finish this battle, I will go back to you. The red-robed man lay down beside her and held the woman's soft body in his arms.
Victor let out a long sigh, he kissed Shana lightly on the cheek, and finally took off all his defenses at this moment, and muttered like a dream: "I think I want to take the initiative to march, go around the back of the Titan Legion, and give him a front and back attack." ”
"Oh, when?" Xana was slightly stunned, and suddenly became uneasy.
Victor's gaze became cold, and he hugged Shana tighter, and said, "Don't be afraid, everything is under my control." I believe that this war will soon be over. ”
And he never expected that Owen would be hidden behind the camp tent at this moment, and any movement would be heard clearly.
——
Grande, Prime Minister's Office.
Candles of different lengths were placed on the golden tray, and the soft light illuminated the entire space, and Loras and the others were sitting around the long table eating breakfast at the moment.
"Ellie, are you going to leave later?" asked Rodrith as he cut off a piece of fried egg and stuffed it into his mouth, turning to the girl.
"Well, we have to get there before noon. The girl said and put down the knife and fork in her hand, and continued, "Brother, you are also going to participate in the fourth-order swordsman assessment next week, right?"
Loras nodded, showing an excited look, and said, "Ellie, I'll go with you, just to familiarize yourself with the environment there in advance." ”
Rodliston was interested, with an expectant expression on his face, and said, "Count me in as one!"
"No, Rodris, have you forgotten that Miss Rosie doesn't seem to have succeeded in teaching you defensive magic before? The magic apprentice's face turned red when he heard this, and he immediately stopped speaking.
Rosie rolled her eyes and said angrily: "You guy, just a little progress, you start to flutter, when will you be a little magician!"
"It's not just a few hours, and it won't be too long to delay ......," Rodlis muttered indignantly.
"Rodlis, didn't you submit an application to the Magic Guild for the assessment of a second-order magician?" Ellie chuckled and changed the subject.
"If I'm not mistaken, the assessment of a second-order mage should be the day after tomorrow. Rosie spread her hands helplessly.
"That's right...... Then I'll stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion. When the magic apprentice heard this, he suddenly looked dejected, and he looked very disappointed.
"Hmph! That's pretty much it. Rosie pursed her lips, and then said to Ellie, "Leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion is naturally much more dangerous. But with Loras protecting you, nothing should go wrong.
What's more, the Duke of Roland has warned Charlie before, and he doesn't dare to make a mistake to you. ”
Loras nodded in agreement, but he wasn't afraid of Charlie.
Because Lord Evan was entrusted by Shiloh to stay in the palace to protect the safety of the Prophecy Child. Not to mention that Charlie was afraid of the terrifying strength of the court magician, and the resentment of the Fisdal family was more terrible than anything else.
"Then without further ado, let's go. Ellie stood up and walked out of the dining room with Loras.
"Rodlis, don't you finish it quickly, don't you want to pass the assessment?" the girl glared at the magic apprentice, a little angry.
In fact, Rosie's attitude is understandable, after all, her own circumstances are completely different from his, and she has already been recognized by high-level magicians as early as the age of ten.
And Rodrith has spent the sixteenth year of his life, and he has finally become an official magician, which is naturally very different from a magical genius like Rosie.
The magic apprentice is not angry, after all, being able to become an official magician is already the best affirmation for himself.
"I don't know how Filin is doing now, this guy has been away from Grande for so long, why didn't he send a letter back. Rodlis spoke suddenly, with a hint of melancholy in his tone.
Before the words fell, I saw the knife and fork in Rosie's hand "clang~" and fell on the table. She realized something and turned to leave the dining room as if she were running away.
All that remained in the room was the regular sound of the pendulum, and Rodrith sat alone at the long table, staring blankly at the bacon on his plate, his thoughts drifting into the distance.
