Chapter Twenty-Six: Mission Accomplished

After three days in the woods, Sclair's injuries have also improved a lot, and during this period, there have been no more chasers of the Holy See, not even the thieves, Benjamin secretly felt to himself, this road is bumpy enough, and now luck seems to be gradually starting to improve, and after passing through this dense forest, everyone decided to walk back to the official road of the main road, which has gone deep into the hinterland of the empire, and the people of the Holy See will no longer be as unscrupulous as before. And because of the addition of Sclair, this journey has been a lot of fun, especially the bickering with Christine, which feels like a pair of living enemies, as wonderful as a counterpart. After more than 20 days of turbulence, we finally arrived at the destination of this trip - the imperial capital, Bucandirea.

Bucandirea is located in the central and eastern part of the entire continent of Pamela Mesjar, with distinct seasons, after nearly three months of long journey, it is already the beginning of spring, the temperature outside makes everyone feel extremely comfortable, the air is full of the freshness of the earth and the fragrance of flowers.

"It's finally here, haha. Christine got out of the carriage, stretched her body, took a deep breath, and said with a happy expression.

"yes, it's finally here. Benjamin said expressionlessly, in fact, he was already excited in his heart and didn't know what to do, not to mention that he had never been to the imperial capital, just thinking about the bounty he could get when he handed in the task, he could make himself wake up laughing from his dreams.

"Hehe, go into town. I'll leave first, and I'll see you again when I have a chance. Sclaire said goodbye to the crowd and prepared to leave.

"Hurry up, there won't be another chance to meet. Christine said this, but in fact, there was a hint of reluctance in her heart.

"Hey, don't worry, even if you don't want to see me, I'll still think about you, it's really a great joy in my life to fight with you, hahaha. Sclair didn't give Christine a chance to speak, turned and ran away.

"You ......" Christine looked at the distant back, bit her lip, and muttered: "You wait, see how I teach you a lesson next time we meet...... but forgot that she had just said that she would never meet again.

After Sklell left, everyone felt that the atmosphere seemed to have changed a little, although they didn't treat this guy very well these days, but after he really left, everyone still had a feeling of loss, and no one spoke anymore at this time, and it wasn't until after entering the city that Benjamin took the lead in breaking this dullness:

"What's next for you?"

"I'll follow you," Ruoqing said immediately without hesitation.

"Me too," Christine continued, "my father asked me to take you with me to the Imperial Royal Academy. ”

"I ...... I'm ......" Isabella looked a little hesitant, unable to speak for a long time.

"What's wrong?" asked Christine with concern.

"I ...... Isabella ...... too" Isabella clenched her fists as if she had made up her mind, and said: "Actually, I want to be with you too, I have nowhere to go, no family and no friends, until I meet you, so I don't want to be separated from you, but ......"

"But you're being hunted down by the Holy See, and you're afraid of causing us trouble, aren't you? Christine didn't wait for Isabella to finish speaking, and directly helped her out.

"Hmm......" Isabella lowered her head, tears had slipped out of her eyes at this time, the already petite and lovely appearance, coupled with such a cry, everyone was very distressed.

"Don't cry, don't cry. Benjamin hurriedly said: "Actually, I am also an orphan, you don't have to worry about the affairs of the Holy See, anyway, we are already hostile to them, it's not a big deal." If you want, let's stay together. ”

"yes. ”

"yes. ”

Ruoqing and Christine also pulled Isabella left and right.

"Then now let's find a place to live first, rest for a day, and tomorrow we will accompany Christine to find someone, after all, we also promised His Royal Highness the Grand Duke of Purple Moon." Benjamin explained the next arrangement, and when he saw that there was no objection from the crowd, he walked to the business district in the city.

Bucandirea was divided into four districts, the administrative district to the north, the college district to the west, the military control area to the east, including the barracks and some modest aristocratic mansions, and the most prosperous commercial district to the south. The royal palace is in the middle of the administrative area and the military control area, and there is a moat surrounded by a width of ten meters, it is said that there is a magic array handed down from ancient times in the moat, whether it is from the air or the ground, or even underground, it can achieve all-round defense, no one knows how powerful it is, anyway, from the beginning of the empire to the present, no one can sneak in, let alone be captured. And the main body of the entire Bucandirea city wall was built by those top powerhouses of the empire during the founding period, whether it is physical defense or magical defense, it is the strongest on the entire continent, and the buildings of the palace and administrative district are said to have been built during the founding period, it can be seen from the appearance that there are all kinds of magic arrays on the buildings of both the palace and the administrative district, and the five great elders of the Magician Guild can now master no more than half, and the combined strength of these five great elders is enough to compete with the entire emperor** team, but there is still no way to crack those magic arrays, you can imagine how strong these magic arrays left by the ancients are, it is said that those magic arrays are not only simple magic arrays, but also mixed with the abilities of astrologers that have been lost. So now the empire doesn't dare to say anything else, just relying on the imperial capital city, it is enough to stand tall in the entire Pamela Mesyar continent.

In addition to the neatly arranged barracks and the mansions of the major nobles, there is also a forbidden place close to the palace moat, where no one knows, only His Majesty the Emperor knows, and only the next emperor can be told before he dies, so it is the most core and mysterious place in the entire empire. The commercial area is different, there are the rough and simple buildings handed down from antiquity, there are pavilions and pavilions brought from other planes, and there are religious buildings like the Holy See...... In short, the entire business district is a fusion of various styles of buildings on almost the whole continent, which makes people forget to leave, and it is also a famous tourist destination in the mainland.

"You guys can rest first, or if you want to take a look here, I'll finish the delivery task first. After Benjamin arranged the accommodation for everyone, he said to Ruoqing and the others.

"Well, you go, let's rest for a while and then see. ”

After Benjamin learned the specific address of Princess Sophia's Mansion located in the military control zone east of the royal city, Benjamin finally came to the princess's mansion from the owner of the professional home, and then led Benjamin into the princess's mansion parlor and waited for the princess to arrive. About five minutes later, with a shout from the attendant:

"The princess has arrivedβ€”"

A young woman in a colorful magician's robe appeared in front of Benjamin,

"You're the one who took on the Spinson mission?"

The voice that seemed to be like fairy music sounded in Benjamin's ears, and Benjamin raised his head to look at Princess Sophia after he finished saluting, about twenty years old, with milky white skin smooth and supple, a pair of watery blue eyes as if there was a kind of magic, which made people unable to extricate themselves after a glance, and the long eyelashes curled up, looking a little naughty, but the melon seed-shaped face was full of coercion, which made the originally slightly naughty and cute appearance reveal a kind of innocence at this time.

"Yes, Your Highness Princess. ”

Benjamin replied respectfully, placing the box on the table in front of him, along with his badge.

Princess Sophia sensed the authenticity of the badge with her spirit, then waved her hand and said:

"It's true, it's fine. ”

At this time, a gray figure appeared out of nowhere, standing beside the princess, Benjamin was taken aback, he did not find out about the existence of this person from beginning to end, if he attacked himself, it is estimated that he will not react until he dies, this is an extremely powerful assassin, Benjamin thought to himself.

"Your Highness Princess, my mission is complete, please allow me to leave if there are no other orders. ”

"Wait," Princess Sophia said, raising her hand, a spiritual sense released, "Huh, what kind of profession are you?"

"I don't know, Your Highness Princess," Benjamin said, a little embarrassed.

"I don't know? Why?"

"Because I participated in all the professional guild evaluations in my hometown, I passed the primary evaluations for archers, swordsmen, assassins, and mages. Benjamin replied truthfully.

"What?" said Princess Sophia, rising from her chair in surprise and staring at Benjamin, "is that true?"

"Yes, Your Highness Princess. This is my professional record. With that, Benjamin took out a piece of oil-stained crystal and placed it on the table in front of him.

"Is this impossible?" said Princess Sophia, who ignored the dirt on the crystal tablet, and after checking it several times, shook her head incredulously.

"The subordinates don't understand either. At this time, the gray-clothed assassin who suddenly appeared said with an incomprehensible look.

"What's your name?" asked Princess Sophia, as she put the crystal down.

"Your Royal Highness, my name is Benjamin, Benjamin Direalo. ”

"Benjamin Direano......" Princess Sophia's voice suddenly became a little hurried, but quickly returned to normal, "Benjiemin, you leave first, and I will inform the Professional Guild that your mission is complete." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness Princess. Benjamin put away his professional records and left the princess's mansion with the attendants.

.......

"What do you think?" said Princess Sophia after Benjamin had left, and the grey-clad assassin had spoken.

"It's not clear yet, but judging from the information we have so far, it should be. The Grey Assassin replied with some uncertainty.

"Wait a minute, don't let him leave the royal city. After speaking, he pointed to the things sent by Benjamin, and said without even looking at them: "Send it to the teacher, let the teacher check it." By the way, I would like to tell those guys in the professional guild that the bonus will be increased to 5,000, and you can send him a set of clothes, so that you don't have to look at his down-and-out appearance. With that, Princess Sophia walked to the inner hall, but her face was covered with tears......
