11 Boydel is a city directly under the commercial capital of Oreols, "with 35,000 inhabitants and about 20,000 troops, it is a megacity that has only developed in recent years. 【Reading Network】【Shrimp iamiee

Since Argus took control of Sassen three years ago, the merchants of Operills have formed a knightly order called the Golden Knights of the Wind.

As the name suggests, "to resist the Royal Order of Sassen", the merchants of Operiels did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build this legion, and most of its soldiers are famous and powerful mercenaries from all over the world, as well as soldiers secretly trained by the Merchant Association, and their quality is undoubtedly top-notch.

In terms of equipment, they spared no expense, and even used precious metals such as Mithril, the purpose of which was to enhance the combat capability of this army, so "Someone once jokingly called this army a veritable Golden Knights, that is, an army made of gold."

During the last few months of stalemate, "the Royal Knights on the Sassen side were in chaos for a time, because the truth about the Sassen incident spread within the Legion, that is, Prince Gran, together with the dark mage Argus, and the vice-president of the Royal Magicians, Jerry Belfort, secretly harmed the previous king, and blamed the rebellion on a series of scandals related to the first prince, Prince Theo.

The royal knights were knights of honor and tradition, and their harsh training led them to be madly zealous about the Imperial Family, risking their lives to serve it, but when they heard about it, they wavered "because they didn't know if it was true."

As a result, nearly 10,000 royal knights withdrew despite the orders of the Sassen side, "This also made the newly formed knight army on the Operiels side breathe a sigh of relief, after all, a large amount of money can indeed build an invincible army, but compared with the royal knights, the top army of the empire, "the quality of its soldiers" is still a gap.

After the Royal Knights withdrew, "Operiels took control of Boydel and some of the neighboring cities, and now, three years later, it has become the front line of the Merchant Alliance against Sassen, and it is also an important hub city connecting the astrological city of Sgedel and the commercial city of Operels.

Over the past few months, there have been several skirmishes between the Knights of the Wind stationed in Boydel and the Death Knights army sent by the Sassen side, and with good results, much to the encouragement of the trembling inhabitants of Boydel.

But no one would have imagined that the commander of this army "turned out to be a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old", the only son of the president of the Operilles Merchant Association, Alan Scander, who was also one of South's closest friends.

Three years ago, after witnessing the collapse of Helriochs, Alan had thought about inviting Thos and Dia to Opperels, and after being refused, he and his female companion Lisa returned to their homeland and participated in the formation of the Knights, after all, he was the only son of the Scands and had an unshirkable responsibility.

The magic that Alan learned at the Reox Academy was only strengthening, but in the past three years, he has relied on this series of enhancements and his outstanding talent to secure the position of the captain of the legion, "and build this army with his own style" Of course, the help of family forces and the Merchant Association is indispensable.

And this time, he only took advantage of the temporary subsidence of the war to go to Vandel to discuss with the Dark Mage Alliance about dealing with Argus, after all, Argus's recent moves have "seriously hindered the normal operation of the Empire, if possible, the merchants of Operiels plan to unite Vander, Artak, Galik, Lorne Fortress and various local power cities to besiege the Imperial City of Sasson, which is controlled by Argus."

But unfortunately, Artak and Galic chose to be neutral for the time being, so Allen's father wanted to win over the black mages of Sgedel as much as possible, after all, Sgedel is now inhabited by two thousand black mages "This is definitely a huge energy that cannot be replaced."

However, Alan is not so self-conscious, "It's not so much that he went out with the intention of wooing the dark magician, but that he stayed out for too long, found some fun and relaxed his spirit", for example, look at the beautiful ladies on Boydel Street, strike up with them or something, and if you're lucky, treat them to a cup of afternoon tea......

This relaxed way made the middle-aged man next to Allen who was dressed up unbearable......

After talking again, the middle-aged man couldn't help it, ignoring the surprised eyes of those beautiful girls, he dragged Alan to the corner and said helplessly, "Allen" We have been staying here for three days, and the army of the royal city does not know when it will be against us, and the most important thing now is to unite with the black magicians of Scottel to discuss the matter of counterattack...... "I know......" glanced at the middle-aged man speechlessly, "Alan said angrily" "But don't worry" Uncle Algi, Argus won't do anything to us for a while, so to speak, he wants us to join forces and besiege Sassen!As I heard from the last time I went to Vander, Argus is building an altar that requires a lot of pure soul power......"

"Oh, is there such a thing?" said the middle-aged man named Algi as he listened and pondered, "No wonder they brought a large number of civilians to Sassen" It turned out that that bastard of Argus that dared to do such a cruel thing!" he said, shaking his head and saying, "No matter what" we must be prepared as soon as possible, and unite the forces of Scottel, Artak, and Galik to "put this country back on the right track!

"That being said, but I can't be in a hurry," looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, his eyes searched for the beautiful girl among them, and after a few praises, Alan said in a deep voice, "Compared to those armies that don't look like living people, what I care more about is Argus himself, this guy's strength has far exceeded the level that humans can achieve, plus those demon gods "If a war starts, our chances of victory ......" ,...... It's strict and negligible!"

"Can no one defeat him?"

"I don't know" whether it is the former head of our academy or Professor Hodd, they both have the power of a great magician when they fought Argus", but even so, "Argus is still alive", and those two ......"

"Hmm...... Aren't the elders of the Vanderle Mage Tower okay too?"

"Not at all, although I don't want to say anything disrespectful to them, but the strength of those elders is really, maybe they once had great power, but after all, they are old, and they have been only focusing on research for a long time, and they have long forgotten how to fight," said Allen, his eyes lit up, and he touched his chin and praised...... , that lady in a long dress is really nice...... Don't mess with it this time. 【Dried shrimp iamiee"

Three years later, he is much more mature than before, "his slightly immature face has a little resolute outline", and a small tuft of dense and thin beard has grown on his chin, coupled with his already handsome appearance, it is indeed a big weapon for girls of the same age to talk.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Alji sighed helplessly, "I didn't want to say angrily" "Alan, please have a little self-consciousness as a husband, okay?

Suddenly, Allen's head drooped down in high spirits, "looked at Algi and rolled his eyes", "I didn't want to be taught by anyone, I don't want to be taught by you", I heard that there are many hostesses in your legendary story, ......"Uh......", "Algi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Algi Eden" This is his name, a very common name, maybe not many people will know it, but when it comes to his original name, Lanard Eden, "it is definitely a household name and legend in the imperial country, and it is a legendary knight who has been enshrined in knight novels for twenty years" The magic knight's sword that Alan secretly took out from home before was enchanted with the four enchantments of wind, ice, earth, and fire, which was the legendary knight's former sword.

But during an adventure, the legendary knight injured his right hand, and the injury was so severe that he couldn't even lift his sword anymore, but luckily "Allen's father met and saved him, so he changed his name to Alger Eden, and in order to repay the kindness, he settled down to live in Operiels and deal with some business in the chamber of commerce" and served as Allen's knight course instructor, and he was also Allen's most longed-for figure.

However, it is said that this legendary knight was very romantic at a young age, and had intimate contact with many noble ladies of the time......

"It's not good to learn something" Looking at Allen's teasing eyes, Alji shook his head with some tears and laughter, and argued, "But don't forget, you and I were in a different situation at the time" I was single at the time, so life was a bit indulgent...... Ahem, and you're married now, you know, Alan?A good knight would never do anything to make a woman cry, especially the woman he loves!Go, I've prepared horses near the city gate, let's get to Vander as soon as possible!", ......", Alan hung his head weakly, sighed, and was about to walk towards the gate of the city with Alge, when suddenly, he saw a large group of people in the distance, as if there was some dispute.

"Colleague's mercenaries?" Alji frowned, and was about to step forward to stop when he suddenly stopped, because he saw that in the middle of those mercenaries, there was a person wearing a red papal robe, and for this, he said in surprise, "Priest of Thessalonia......? Could it be the cardinal?Why is the cardinal of the Holy See here?", "Cardinal?Whatever is he a cardinal, dare to make trouble here, don't think about going out of the city in a dignified manner," smiling playfully, Alan looked into the distance with great interest, and suddenly" his expression changed slightly, and said in a tone of surprise and disbelief with some reproach, "Soss, it turned out to be Soss!"

"Soth?" Algie looked at Alan for some reason.

At the same time, on the other side, "the mercenaries who were deliberately causing trouble had already begun to move, and poor Father Bang was surrounded by them, looking at Soth from time to time with a pleading look.

Perhaps paying attention to Father Bang's gaze, a mercenary glanced at Soth, saw that it was just a teenage child, and said disdainfully, "Little ghost, it's none of your business here, get out!", Father Bang clearly saw that the coldness in Soth's eyes flashed away, and he secretly screamed in his heart.

Before he could make any moves, he saw Soth raise his head, revealing a pair of silver and dark golden pupils, and said lightly in a tone without any emotional ripples, "I don't want to cause trouble, get out of here!"

"......" The mercenary was obviously stunned, and then his face showed a little anger, "raised his right hand and slapped it at Soth's face.

Suddenly, with a click, the mercenary's right hand was folded at an incredible angle.

Looking blankly at the weakly hanging right hand, the mercenary reacted and "let out a cry of pain" The sudden sharp pain made a layer of sweat the size of a bean oozed from his forehead.

"You little devil dare to ......", the mercenaries who surrounded them couldn't help but be furious.

They didn't know that this was already a very forgiving approach for Soth, after all, he only used strength, raised his right hand and hooked his fingers, Soth said slowly, "Aren't you who deliberately cause trouble?

"You stinky boy!", the provoked mercenaries rushed towards Soth angrily, but unfortunately, Soth's semi-demonized body was obviously not something that these mercenaries could resist, "There is no need to cast any magic at all, just the ** power of the right hand is enough to knock them down."

In just a dozen seconds, the dozen or so mercenaries fell to the ground, rolling in pain with their left or right hands.

"When you cause trouble in the future, remember to keep your eyes open!" as he spoke, Soth suddenly felt a breeze hit the back of his head, and suddenly his heart was alarmed, and he turned around, stretched out his right hand and firmly grasped the knight's sword that was close at hand.

But the strange thing is that the moment his right hand is stretched out, the strength of the knight's sword seems to have suddenly decreased a lot" This made Soth feel very strange.

Just then," a voice of surprise came to his ears.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for three years, have you changed your career to be a knight?"

"Huh?" Soth looked up in disbelief, but saw a familiar face and muttered incredulously, "Alan?"

"Who else but Uncle Ben!", Alan laughed arrogantly, and then glanced at Soth's right hand holding the knight's sword, "I wanted to say hello to you, but your reaction was really beyond my expectations!

"Oh," Soth subconsciously let go of his right hand and said angrily, "Can't you just say hello? Why are you here?"

"Hey, I'll have to ask you about that," casually handed the knight's sword in his hand to the uncle Alji who showed a surprised expression beside him, Alan habitually hugged Soth's shoulder and said with a smile, "I heard that you've been messing around in Salonia for three years, man, you won't come back for three years" I thought you were going to spend your whole life there!Why? Are you willing to come back?", angrily slapped Allen's hand away" Soth sighed slightly, and said, "It's not that I don't want to come back, it's just ...... Forget it, I'm coming back this time, just to get back the account from Argus three years ago, "Argus?" Alan was stunned and frowned, "I heard that Ulrike incompetent vampire say, you fought Argus once three years ago, right?"

"It's obvious", with a wry smile, Soth took a breath and said lightly, "But not this time!"

Alan nodded as if he didn't understand, "Seeing that there were more and more pedestrians around, he casually pointed to a tavern and said, "You have just arrived in Boydle, right?

"Alas!" Alji shook his head helplessly, involuntarily glanced at Soth's back, and said secretly in his heart, although Eren weakened his strength at the last moment, this young man actually pinched the blade of the knight's sword with just one right hand, is this something that humans can do? It's incredible............

And while he was negotiating with the guards, Alan had already entered the tavern with Soth, and oh, and Father Bang who was following Soth.

"Smack!" sat at the tavern counter" Alan snapped his fingers to call the tavern owner, and then said to Soth, "What do you want?" man!"

"A glass of ice water!"

"Ice water?" Alan glanced at Soth in astonishment, and then said to Father Bon beside Soth, "What about this priest?"

"Uh, I'll ice water too......"

Shrugging his shoulders, Alan said to the tavern owner, "Two glasses of ice water, one glass of cider!" and as he spoke, he took a gold coin from his pocket and slapped it on the counter.

"Okay!" the tavern owner smiled and nodded.

After a few minutes," Alan took a sip of fruit wine, glanced at Father Bang and said politely, "You're a priest from Salonia, aren't you? Cardinal?

"Uh...... Yes, my name is Bang, Harmsworth, and I have the privilege of being a cardinal, and you are a friend of Lord Walmont?

"Volmont, Your Excellency?" Alan looked at Soth in surprise, as far as he knew, the cardinal was the highest position in the Holy See except for the Pope, and such a big man even called his friend Your Excellency?

Perhaps noticing Alan's expression, Father Bon smiled and explained, "Yes, I have only recently been promoted to a cardinal, and His Excellency Wolfmont was a cardinal like me before he stepped down...... ，...”

"You, Cardinal?" Allen's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Soth incredulously, "That's a good mix" Man! Cardinal doesn't want to come back...... "Less nonsense! These are two different things!" glared at Alan angrily, Soth frowned and said to Father Bond, "Also, shut up!

"Yes Yes ......"

Looking at Father Bang's embarrassed appearance" Alan couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then laughed and patted Soth on the shoulder and said, "It's good to come back anyway!" There has been no news from you for three years, Senior Sister Dia is very depressed, although she never says "......" "Dia ......" Sos sighed slightly.

"That's right", as if thinking of something, Alan lowered his head and said with a grin, "You know, I'm married!"

"Huh?" said Soth, looking up in surprise and curiosity, "aren't you going to learn from the legendary knight in the novel?"

"Isn't it impossible......"

"Yo!" looking at Allen's expression with amusement, Soth said with a bit of teasing, "which one is so unlucky?"

"Hey, that's hurtful!" Alan rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"Okay, so who is the other party?"

"You know ...... well"

"Lisa?" Soth was a little surprised, "after all, Alan is the only son of the president of the Operilles Merchant Guild", and Lisa is just from an ordinary aristocratic family, and there is a big gap between the two families.

"What kind of eyes are you?" glared at Soth angrily, and Alan recalled, "Don't think that everywhere pays attention to family power, at least the old man of my family is quite tolerant in this regard, and what is it that he is more like a man with a sense of family responsibility...... , all in all, there is no objection to "much luckier than Scott's guy......"

"Scott?"

"Yes, I met once last year, in Vanderle, this guy was quietly engaged to Lerella" They are called trouble, you know, Scott's father is a duke, although he doesn't say it, he actually doesn't agree, the marriage of the nobility is so troublesome, but well, the relationship between Scott and his father has always been ......not very good" He paused, and said with a little emotion, "Do you remember the school celebration before? The three of us bumped into Ivey's team at once" It's also a kind of fate, but speaking of which, I thought you would choose Ivey's "You don't know, Ivey ...... you"

Shaking the icy water from the glass, Soth asked in a low voice, "How is she?"

"She?" Alan smiled strangely, and then pulled out a necklace made of wolf teeth hanging from his head and neck from his breastplate, and said with a smile, "How is it, envy?

"Did you really go?"

"Yes, anyway, I was idle at that time!~ For your sake, we ran to Vandel a lot, and we also ran into Ivey during the process, so we went to Artac to participate in that trial...... , Scott has one too, oh, yes, Ivey too, I can't underestimate her!

"What!" Crying and laughing, he drank the ice water from his glass, and Soth vomited slightly. Angry, he changed the subject and said, "I heard that you have had a few fights with Argus?

Seeing that Soth said this, Allen's tone sank, "shook his head and said, "It's not optimistic, Argus found an army out of nowhere, those soldiers almost have the ability to die, when we first came into contact, our losses were very huge, if it wasn't for Sister Abel and the magician who came to help, I'm afraid the whole army would be wiped out...... So we don't dare to engage in a large-scale conflict with Argus now, and if I can, I'm going to unite the armies of Sgdal, Artak, Galik, and other regions to besiege Sassen, how about it? Would you like to help me?"

Looking at Allen's expectant eyes, Soth said lightly, "Another glass of ice water!"

"Uh...... Hey, you guy!"
