Chapter 99: The Scene of the Ceremony
Savile Town, Central Square.
Mayor Sain commanded a group of servants to be busy, and in the face of the lord's orders, he did not dare to slack off, although the territory had not held a decent reward ceremony for several years, he was still very experienced in arranging personnel to arrange the scene.
Thinking of the last time the reward ceremony was held in the territory, when the old lord was there, I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, so many years have passed, and the lord who was originally a young man is no longer young.
"You're getting old!"
Mayor Sain sighed with emotion and ordered someone to go to the temple to ask Bishop Ambriel, while he himself found the mage Alberc who was casting a spell to make flowers, and patted Abbick on the shoulder familiarly:
"Alberk, what is the lord doing now? Everyone here is almost here, and he hasn't appeared yet! ”
"He's probably talking to Nia right now, he wants to introduce her to everyone at the award ceremony."
"Ah-," Sein exclaimed, "isn't it too soon?" Niya is still so young, why don't you dissuade him! ”
As the administrator of the Savile Lord, both he and Abbeck were followers chosen by the old lords for the Lord of Epps, especially Sain, who had been serving the Savier family since his grandfather.
In the face of Sein's complaints, Abbick could only smile bitterly, "Why didn't I persuade him, but as long as the lord made up his mind, we could dissuade him that time, let alone let Nia go to the front desk, not long ago, he also let Niya go to the orc battlefield!" ”
"What!"
Now Sean was even more unsettled, "By the way, why didn't Cecily tell me about this, was it the lord who stopped me, or you?" ”
Cecily is the daughter of Sein, who grew up with Nia and can be said to be the great butler of the next generation of Savile Lords, and most importantly, Cecily is a mage.
His daughter is closer to Nya than to the Lord.
"No one stopped her, it was her own decision."
"Well, she's sensible, but even then, you didn't even tell me! Do you think I'm too old to do it? Sain looked displeased.
Looking at Sain, who grew up together like a brother, Alberke only felt a headache, "Okay, Sain, don't be angry, we are so busy after the war, we have all forgotten, next time I promise not to!" ”
Sein waved his hand, "Forget it, I've said how many times I've seen through you." ”
Then he changed his words and returned to the previous topic, "Niya's matter, I don't think it's appropriate now, the orc crowd is gone, and a large area of forest from Saville to Wolf God Mountain can be developed, do you think there will be people in the empire?"
"And the elves, the first lord had a conflict with the elves when he opened up here, if the territory continues to develop, will it provoke the elves again? Nia is still a child, there is no need for her to bear it now, we are not dead yet! ”
"This-" Listening to Theon's words, Alberk was also a little hesitant, he was very good at studying magic, but he was not good at considering the development of the territory, "Then the lord is there-"
"Take me to him! He can't be allowed to bring Nia to the reward ceremony, at least not as the heir to the realm. ”
At this moment, Abck seemed to see the majesty of this brother again.
A mage was summoned to continue casting spells to create flowers to decorate the ceremony venue, and he teleported away with Theon.
……
At this time, Xia Duo had already changed into a set of mage robes that looked rather gorgeous and exquisite, and came to the statue of the Grand Arcanist to wait for the ceremony to begin.
Similar to him, there are more than a dozen apprentices who are also dressed in this outfit, but unfortunately, this set of exquisite robes with gold and silver threads is actually a look at all.
Xia Duo didn't see any magic aura on it, and this was the kind of thing he said, and even this robe was given to them directly.
In addition, he noticed that the robes of those official mages, although similar to them, did indeed possess magical aura.
Perhaps it was the lord who made them look more formal, so he made a face-saving project.
"Shado, Shado, I see my family!"
Suddenly, Dean excitedly pointed to a spot in the crowd to the south and said, "Look, behind the tall soldier, there were three people in the past, and the person holding the little girl was my mother, and next to it was my father and aunt, and the little girl was my cousin. ”
Shado looked in the direction Dean pointed, and it was full of people, as if all the people in the town who could come had come, and from time to time people waved and shouted.
Dean's family blended in with the crowd and stood out unnoticed.
Next to him, Sammy was also waving to the south, apparently greeting his family as well, and everyone was extremely excited, except for Xia Duo.
He felt that he was out of place in this kind of field, and in this atmosphere, Xia Duo naturally thought of his family, but how to say hello when he was separated by a world?
In contrast, he would rather study magic in the Mage's Tower.
It seemed that Sammy and Dean's excitement had subsided a little bit because of Shado's feelings, but the others didn't care what Shado thought, how excited they should be, just how excited.
Chado, on the other hand, turned his gaze elsewhere.
Under the Great Arcane Statue, the caster and the non-caster are separated in an "eight" shape, and the closer to the Great Arcanist statue, the stronger the strength, the more respectable the status, and the greater the merit.
In Xia Duo's opinion, there is another judgment, that is, judging from the strength of the magic aura on his body, the more powerful the magic item, the closer he is to the statue of the Great Arcanist.
Almost all the figures with heads and faces in the Savile Collar are above this "eight".
Xia Duo, these mage apprentices, just stood at the end of the "eight", and they also showed their faces.
Farther away, the guards who maintained order, and the crowd of onlookers.
……
Just when Xia Duo was bored and looked around, the non-casters on the other side of the "eight" character had already come one after another, and the spellcasters on Xia Duo's side were also coming soon, and only a few slots were still vacant.
"Look, the bishop of the temple is here!"
Xia Duo saw that almost all the people on the left and right turned around, and he also turned around curiously, it was an old man wearing a red, orange and yellow robe, accompanied by the attendants on the left and right, and slowly came to the front of Xia Duo's "eight" feet under the Great Arcane statue.
In the bishop's march, Xia Duo seemed to see a light rising from the bishop's body, and a soft meaning slowly penetrated, making people feel like a spring breeze.
At this moment, it was as if the cold had left him.
Originally, the noisy crowd was collectively quiet the moment the bishop stepped out of the temple, and Xia Duo did not expect the bishop to have such a great reputation in Savile.
Fortunately, Xia Duo has also read the "Sacred Proverbs of the Lord of Light" and knows how to avoid conflicts with the church, in fact, the stronger the clergy, the more like the ancient gentlemen on earth, they can deceive them.
This "square" is their doctrine.
Except, of course, for a very small number of fanatics.
