In the dimly lit stable, a fart slowly climbed up the post......

The Gubolai horse, who had come down from the battlefield with Surdak, stood silently in the stable, eating the hay from the manger.

It had been kept in the stable for nearly two months since its leg had broken off on the training ground two months earlier, and the Guboren snorted boredly, and swept away a few flies flying around its butt with its tail, as if wondering how long this boring life would last.

Suddenly, a familiar figure flashed in the sight of the Guboraima, and it looked up alarmedly, and saw Surdak approaching it from outside the stable.

It began to scrape the ground incessantly, snorting and flicking its ponytail in the welcome of Surdak.

Surdak walked into the stables and saw at a glance the ...... of the horses that were born and died together on the battlefield.

He walked over to it, and Guborema stuck his head into Surdak's arms and licked his face with his wet tongue.

Surdak hugged it affectionately, rubbing its soft mane with his hands.

The broken leg had healed, and even because of the strengthening scroll, the leg was even stronger than before, and there were a few vein-curling magic lines on the edge of the scar, like the color of its original skin.

A stable keeper brought Surdak's saddle cover over and pressed it on, and Surdak found that the Gubolai horse was much stronger than before, and the buckle on the saddle was no longer suitable for it, and it was only two inches out that he could barely fasten the buckle.

The Gubora horse couldn't wait to get out of the stable, and Surdak led it around the running ground in front of the stable twice, and when he saw that his body seemed to be moving, he rolled over and rode onto the horse.

"Old man, I'm here to pick you up, let's go home!" Surdak leaned over and whispered in its ear.

As if he understood Surdak's words, the Guborama shook its head, let out a hiss, and ran towards the gate of the knight's training ground.

The guard standing at the door hurriedly pushed the gate open and gave Surdak a standard knightly salute.

The streets of the city of Highlandsa are a bit narrow, and many of the alleys are impassable by magic caravans, so some nobles still maintain the habit of riding horses when they go out.

Andrew and Samira, the ogre Gulitham and the others were outside the academy, Andrew and Samira were standing against the wall, perhaps because in the city of Warzhmara, the natives of Maga and the poor people of the empire were already hostile, and the two of them rarely communicated, Samira was carefully calibrating the bowstring of the alloy bow, the back of the alloy bow was polished very smooth, and the handshake was inlaid with cork, which looked very delicate.

Andrew wrapped the axe he was carrying around his back with strips of linen, and from the outside, he could only see the general outline of the axe.

The ogre sat on the ground in the corner of the wall, and only by sitting here would it not be so conspicuous, and seeing Surdak riding out of the knight's academy, the ogre.

"Let's go, let's take you to taste the best barbecue in the city of Highlandsa......"

The ogre Gulitham stood up from the ground in an instant, and his strong body like a mountain of Roshan immediately scared away several passers-by.

……

Due to the relationship between the ogre Gullitham, everyone could not eat in the lobby on the first floor of the restaurant, and the restaurant manager was worried that Gullitham might frighten the guests who ate in the hall, so he politely asked Carl to agree, and the dining place of the group was changed to the backyard on the first floor of the Three Bears Restaurant, and ensured that the environment there was also very good, and it was very clean, and no one would break in and disturb him.

In the early spring season, many vines and trees have not yet budded, and the yard looks somewhat depressed.

The restaurant manager had a few waiters set up two large tables in the courtyard, and two more chefs were brought in to take care of the barbecue, and recommended a whole rib and a whole loin for the ogre Gulitham, which took a little time, but it didn't affect the ogre's dinner at all.

The most distinctive thing about the Three Bears Barbecue Restaurant is that you order food first when you enter the door, and a lot of barbecue is placed on the grill, which is already cooked, so the ogre first ordered a batch of medium-rare steaks, the steak here is of moderate size, and the ogre eats ten servings of barbecue in one go at the beginning of dinner.

Karl glanced at Surdak with some sympathy, after all, Surdak's promise to Gulitham was to eat and be full, but now it seems that the ogre eats so much, even if Surdak exchanges all the salaries paid by the guard battalion to the ogre for food, it is very likely that it will not be enough for him to fill his stomach.

Karl glanced at Andrew and Samira next to him, and thought to himself: It's okay, there are finally two normal.

There was a grilled fish and a plate of fruit salad on the plate in front of the half-elf archer, and when she leaned down to eat the fruit, she lifted the hood of the linen with her hand, and the delicate elf-like side face appeared in front of Carl, so that Carl almost forgot that he was still cutting the barbecue with a knife in his hand, and then Carl also found that Samira's ears were still clearly different from those of the elf, and the background color of her eyes was light red. The bloodline of the fallen elves.

Surdak stomped his foot hard under the table, which made Carl, who was looking at Samira in a daze, wake up, and Carl realized that he might have just lost his temper, and he quickly picked up his glass and took a sip of golden cider, taking the opportunity to hide his embarrassment.

Then he shifted his gaze to Surdak's face and asked him:

"Is everything done here at the Knight Academy?"

Surdak nodded.

Karl slice the steak on the plate and cut it into very neat cubes, and then put the meat into his mouth, tasting the tender and juicy beef, and asked Surdak:

"When are you going back to Wall Village?"

Surdak said: "There are still some things to deal with tomorrow, and if it goes well, it will probably be the day after tomorrow." ”

Karl nodded, he knew that Surdak still had some friends in Highlandsa City, and he was afraid that he would have to say goodbye, he said to Surdak: "The security team can still receive an activity fund here, don't forget to go to the guard camp to take this money before leaving." ”

"And the event funding?" Surdak asked, somewhat surprised.

Karl said of course: "Of course, your security team still needs to have an official office outside the Pagros Pass, of course, you have the final say on where you choose, but the guard battalion will give you a settlement payment." ”

"That's pretty good!" Surdak muttered.

By the time dinner was over, it was already completely dark.

Surdak led the group to the Garden Square Hotel.

The proprietress was still at the reception desk, probably accounting for the income and expenditure accounts, she calculated very carefully, and checked each record twice.

Surdak pushed the door and walked in, and said hello to the innkeeper who was sitting in the rest area drinking tea, and when the innkeeper saw the ogre following Surdak, he jumped up from the sofa in fright, and asked Surdak with a frightened face: "Sudak...... Knight of Surdak, this one is also ...... Also your friend? ”

"That's right, it's best to arrange a spacious room for him on the first floor, if it's the second floor, I'm afraid he'll break the floor on the second floor of the hotel!" Surdak said with a smile.

When the innkeeper heard someone push the door into the hotel, she hurriedly put down the account book in her hand, ready to stand up and receive it, and when she saw that the person who walked in from the outside was Surdak, she immediately asked kindly: "Oops! Knight Surdak, I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that the guard battalion went to participate in the plane war? ”

"Yes, for the last two months, I have been on duty outside with the guard battalion." Surdak replied.

The innkeeper looked at the people behind Surdak, then gave Surdak four sets of keys, and said: "The room number is written on the nameplate of the key, and if you need to provide hot water, it is best to say ...... in advance." ”

The last two sentences she did not say to Surdak, but the three companions behind Surdak, when she saw the ogre, she was not as startled as the innkeeper, but looked at the ogre curiously for a while, and then smiled at the ogre before retracting her gaze.

She held a small folding fan in her hand, slapped it casually twice, and smiled at Surdak: "You friend is really strong......

After speaking, he glanced at the ogre twice, and then twisted his plump buttocks. Ministry, led a few people to the empty room of the hotel.

"It's good for you to come back, I hope the murderers will be more restrained, or simply leave Highland...... the law and order in the city has been very chaotic these days, and I heard that people often die in the slums"

She chattered as she pushed open the door to a room that was very spacious on the first floor.

The ogre stooped into the room, and instead of sitting on the bed, he sat directly on the floor, curiously looking at the furnishings in the room.

……

The bright sunlight outside the window imprinted a grid of light on the floor, and these light grids slowly crept up to the bed.

Beatrice was awakened by a blinding ray, and she lazily stretched out her white arms to block out the sunlight, and her arms were a little dazzling white in the sunlight.

At this time, she saw Hathaway in a dressing gown, sitting on a wooden stool on the dresser, looking at a letter seriously.

"A letter from home? Is it urging you to go back? Beatrice asked earnestly.

Hathaway sighed, put the letter in her hand into the jewelry box, turned to her close friend and said, "Beatrice, I think it's time for us to go back." ”

Beatrice sat up from the bed, pulled the suspenders on her shoulders, looked out the window, and said, "Yes! The war on the maca plane is coming to an end. ”

The two men looked at each other a little speechlessly, and Hathaway handed Beatrice a glass of hot milk on the table, just about to say, 'Drink it while it's hot...... I heard someone knock lightly on the door of the room outside the bedroom door.

"What's the matter?" Hathaway asked directly.

She didn't open the door, nor did she let the maid standing outside the door in.

The maid hurriedly said, "Miss Hathaway, someone is looking for ...... outside."

Hathaway was a little strange, she and Beatrice didn't have any friends in the city of Highlandza, and they didn't know who would come to visit early in the morning, according to aristocratic etiquette, such visits were usually greeted in advance the day before, so as not to have any preparations here.

"It's a knight......" the maid spoke in a small voice.

……

This is a very exquisite villa next to the long street on the west side of the Magic Tower, located at the intersection of the rich area and the mage gathering place, and some magicians can often be seen in the nearby villa area, so the security has always been good.

Surdak stood beside the bush wall at the gate, looked at Hathaway and Beatrice running out of the door, and smiled at them.

Beatrice, dressed in thin pajamas, ran barefoot out of the house first, desperately throwing herself into Surdak's arms.

Surdak patted Beatrice's bare back in the cold wind, nodded to Hathaway who ran after him, and stretched out one hand to Hathaway.

Like friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, Hathaway reserved and Surdak hugged each other and quickly separated.

Beatrice was so excited that she invited Surdak into the villa, and the three of them sat down on the sofa in the living room, while the maids brought warm milk tea.

Surdak took the initiative to ask, "When did you two come?" ”

Beatrice and Hathaway sat across from Surdak.

Beatrice's face was flushed, and he replied with a smile, "It's been more than two months, and we've spent the whole spring in the city of Highlandza. ”

Surdak didn't expect them to stay in the city of Highlandsa for so long.

Thinking that they had been looking for themselves a few times before, he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, the guard battalion has received a temporary mission, and I haven't been in Highlandsa City for a short time...... recently."

Hathaway sat on the couch and didn't speak.

Beatrice, however, was very talkative, and she smiled at Surdak and said, "I didn't expect you to join the guard battalion, Hathaway and I thought you would join the adventure party, by the way, how did you find this?" We never left an address. ”

"I'm now a knight in the guard camp of Hylanza City, and it won't be too difficult to investigate two foreign noble ladies in Hylanza City." Surdak said.

Beatrice glanced at Hathaway, and then said boldly:

"Mr. Knight, as the landlord of Hylanza City, can you take us on a tour of Hylanza City?"

Surdak thought for a moment, then agreed: "It's my pleasure!" ”

Beatrice pulled Hathaway and ran up the stairs quickly, and said:

"Knight Surdak, you may have to wait for us a while......"

Beatrice's mouth was a little while, and Surdak waited for more than an hour, and just as the maid was serving Surdak the seventh cup of hot tea, the two ladies walked down the stairs in tight leather armor.

"Actually, the most beautiful time in Highlandsa is in autumn, when the oak forests all over the mountains are full of acorns, then the scenery is the most beautiful......"

Surdak walked out of the villa with Hathaway and Beatrice, and a magic caravan stopped outside the door.
