Kim and Sangmi were more reserved, smiled, walked over to Horn and asked, "How are you doing after separation?"

Even Brusto, who didn't like to speak, nodded at Horn, as always, cherishing words like gold, and squeezed out one word: "Okay?"

Horn understood everyone's thoughts, smiled at everyone and said, "After separating from everyone, although there was an accident, nothing happened in the end. ”

At this time, the middle-aged man and the middle-aged graceful woman in the hall both looked at Horn in surprise and asked Jin, "Is he?"

At this time, Jin thought that he hadn't been introduced to this middle-aged and middle-aged graceful woman, and hurriedly said, "This is Horn Cons ......."

"My name is Horn Reinhardt...... May I ask you are the lord here, Count Zelas, Count Widcod, right?" Horn hurriedly interrupted Kim's speech, he was now using the fake surname 'Reinhardt', and while pressing his right hand on his chest and abdomen, he leaned slightly, and looked at the middle-aged man in a noble manner, winking at Jin with a look in his eyes.

Kim was confused for a moment, but then he understood, coughed and said, "Yes, look at my memory...... His name is Horn Reinhardt, hey......."

The middle-aged man stood up and nodded slightly, which was considered a return gift. Then he pointed to the middle-aged woman and said, "This is my wife, Helen Widward." ”

Horn bowed to the middle-aged graceful woman again. Horn's posture is a continental commonality, etiquette among the nobility.

Helen, a middle-aged graceful woman, smiled and nodded at Horn, which was considered a return salute, and then invited Horn to sit down.

At this time, the old magician Popner felt that Horn had a strong magical aura on him, and the strength seemed to be stronger than his own. Frowning and looking Horn up and down, he said in surprise, "You...... Arcanist or magician now?"

Horn nodded in acknowledgement, and said lightly: "Magician, while I am cultivating martial arts, I am also cultivating magic ......"

The others noticed the magic fluctuations on Horn's body after Popner said this, and they couldn't help but be surprised, you know, both arcanists and magicians are relatively rare, especially Horn didn't know any magic more than two years ago.

Popner continued, "What level of magician are you now?" ”

Horn hesitated, but still said honestly: "I'm a fourth-level magician now......"

"What?" exclaimed in the hall, although Popner was mentally prepared, he also thought that Horn was at most level three, but he didn't expect that it was level four.

The reason why the others exclaimed was because the fourth-level magicians were already mid-level, and the magicians in the entire Census Continent were scarce, and it was even rarer to be as young as Horn, and even Brusto, who had always been silent, was surprised.

At this time, Count Zeros looked surprised, at first he thought that Horn was just a mid-level martial artist, but he didn't expect that he was still a mid-level magician. For magicians, the nobleman's approach is to make friends as much as possible. So he stood up, smiled at Horn and said, "I didn't know you were actually a mid-level magician just now...... It's rude.

Horn had no choice but to stand up and say, "Your Excellency the Earl, you are too polite, my strength is nothing......"

It's not that Horn is modest, he has really met too many strong people, but that one is much stronger than himself, even those medium-sized purgatory creatures in purgatory are stronger than himself, not to mention the demon lord like Frieza, who can kill himself in seconds with a single thought.

Count Zeroth laughed and said, "You're being too modest...... By the way, Lord Horn, I wonder if you're in that place right now?"

Horn understood that Count Zeroth was asking if he had been hired by that nobleman, and that mid-level magicians were in high demand. No matter which nobleman is proud of being able to hire a low-level magician, let alone a middle-level magician, as for the high-level, only the royal family has this kind of strength and face, and a high-level magician is not that you have money, but also depends on your identity.

Horn smiled and said, "I am now the deputy commander of the magic battalion of the Ninth Legion of the Empire, and I just arrived in Kayan City today. ”

Count Zeroth's eyes flashed with disappointment, knowing that as long as Horn entered the army, there was no way to quit the legion until the orcs invaded the south. I had no choice but to say: "Then after the orcs retreat, if Your Excellency Horn has no place to go, you can consider coming to me, and the conditions are up to you......"

Horn replied vaguely: "You can think about it when the time comes......"

After speaking, he sighed and said, "I don't know if I can survive this orc invasion of the south......"

Count Zeroth smiled and said, "Don't worry, haven't we won so many times before the orcs invaded the south? this time will be no exception...... A magician like you is a key target of protection, and it will be fine. ”

Horn shook his head, gave the news about the orcs, and recounted his worries.

Suddenly, the whole hall fell silent. Apparently did not know that the situation was so dire. Count Zeroth was the first to react and asked, "How do you know this?"

Horn replied, "That's what Lord Bradley, the commander of the magic camp, said...... He's in charge of the Ninth Legion's magical communications, and this information should be accurate. ”

Although Count Zeroth did not know how the Ninth Legion transmitted the communication, Bradley knew him and visited him some time ago, and from the perspective of his personality, he would not tell lies, and there was no need for this.

Horn asked Count Zelas curiously, "Don't you know? ”

Count Zeroth smiled bitterly: "This place is very far away from Helki City, although I have contact with that side, but only once a month, after all, using magic to communicate, the price is very expensive." As you said, it is estimated that this situation has only come out in the past few days. ”

After speaking, he suddenly glanced at Helen, the Countess who was sitting on the side, and said, "I remember that there is one more urgent matter to be dealt with...... Helen, let's go up and deal with it. ”

The countess on the side was confused, then came to her senses and said, "Yes...... This matter is urgent, and it will not work if it is not dealt with immediately. ”

After speaking, he said to everyone: "You sit here for a while, and we will come down as soon as we finish handling the matter." ”

Then he hurried out of the hall and headed towards the study.

After they left, Horn and King began to say, "What is the Earl's important business, so urgent?"

Popner on the side smiled and said, "What's the matter, I think they have to discuss whether to leave here first and take refuge in other places." ”

Sang Mei questioned on the side, "No, didn't they pay us so much to protect them? why did they run away, and if they left, what would happen to the people who stayed here?"

Popner sneered: "That's because they didn't know that the situation was so grim now, but earlier, it is estimated that they even saved the money for hiring us and went directly to the mainland for refuge." If they can't save themselves, will they still go to the lives of the people?"

Popner looked at Sangmei with a face full of disbelief, and sighed and said, "You'll know later, and when they come out, they will probably find an excuse to leave here." ”

At this point, the atmosphere cooled down. It took a while for Horn to break the silence and say, "How have you been doing for more than two years?"

Popner said lazily: "What else can I do, is to take the task and go around...... But you, seem to have been through a lot, right?"

Horn had no choice but to give a general account of what had happened after he was separated from them, only to change the realm passage to seal the Demon Eye to accidentally fall into the realm passage and go to purgatory. There is also the concealment of things about Venn and Frieza. But even so, it amazed several people.

Horn didn't want to dwell on himself for too long, so he asked, "Count Zeroth hired you here to protect them, and if they want to go back, will you go with them or what will you do?"

The six of them looked at each other, and finally Jin said, "According to the agreement, we are going to go with them." It's just that the situation is so grim now, if everyone runs away without a fight like Count Zelas, then humanity will only be conquered and enslaved by the orcs again, so I personally think I should stay and fight against the orcs. As for what you are going to do, you can decide for yourself. ”

The remaining five people expressed their stance one after another, Brusto Sanmei Kel Popuna all expressed his willingness to stay, while Gu Dong said drunkenly: "Although I am a dwarf, I can't control the affairs of your human beings so much. But if you're going to stay, how can we leave alone as a team for so long?"

After everyone said they wanted to stay, the Counts of Zeros and their dues came out. Seeing that everyone coughed, he said with an embarrassed expression: "Because I suddenly received a grandmother of mine who died suddenly just now...... They happen to be in the south of the empire, and as juniors, our family naturally wants to mourn, so I'm really embarrassed that we will leave tomorrow. ”

Popner glanced at Sangmei, which meant that it was not what I expected. Sang Mei showed a disappointed look in her eyes, and couldn't help but say, "Then Your Excellency the Earl, it shouldn't take long to participate in the memorial event, right?"

The Count of Zeroth hesitated, but Zhiwu couldn't speak, and the countess next to him hurriedly said: "Because we haven't been in contact with my grandmother's family for a long time, and we are usually very busy, we take this opportunity to contact our feelings, and it is estimated that we will live for a long time." ”

Count Zeroth chimed in, "Yes, yes. I guess it's going to take a long time......"

Popner sarcastically said, "I think the orcs are 'not available' to come back before the end of the southern invasion." ”

The Counts of Zeroth were embarrassed for a moment and were speechless.

Jin said in a deep voice at this time: "According to the agreement, we should go south with you to protect you." But now we've decided to stay and fight the orcs, so our agreement is canceled. ”>
