Chapter 54: The Day of the Tides

When the figure of the alien race appeared on the border of the Barron Territory, the atmosphere of the entire Barron Territory condensed a little.

Many experienced lords already have a hunch.

According to the custom of previous years, the time of the alien invasion is estimated to be just recently.

As a result, the three cities became deserted, there were fewer merchants, there were fewer people shopping, and the only thing that became more was that the soldiers were more trained.

There were 3,000 garrisons in the city of Plenty, 1,000 on the left acropolis, and 1,000 on the right acropolis.

Plus the newly formed Dreadnought Pioneers have 500 people.

That's most of the power that William can pull his hands on.

He was not prepared to recruit peasant soldiers, nor was he going to call for support from his Uncle Reke.

Because, in addition to these soldiers, he also has three great knights, as well as a magician who is far beyond the strength of a great knight.

With these four people, it is enough to gain a decisive advantage in a war of several thousand people.

As a result, countless border sentinels converged inward, centered on the three cities, scattered around, and were on guard at all times.

According to previous cases, the targets of the alien invasions were all in the city of Plenty.

They knew that the defenders of the City of Plenty were the strongest, and they were not the same as the left and right Acropolis, but they still chose to invade the City of Plenty of Money.

First, the city of Plenty is the richest, after all, the lord's castle is here.

Second, they didn't take the defending power of the city of Plenty seriously.

These days.

Picios and Gouland have become regular visitors to Black Rock Castle, and new information is sent almost every day.

Where are traces of aliens found today, and tomorrow a few nobles will leave the city of Fertility with their families and take refuge in the interior......

For the nobles who had recently left, William did not hinder him in the slightest.

This has been the case in previous years.

Every time there is a foreign invasion, the great nobles will leave.

When the aliens retreat, the nobles will return.

So the most important thing for every living thing is neither strength nor quantity, but adaptability.

Only creatures that can adapt to the harsh environment will have the last laugh.

There is no doubt that these great nobles who can live comfortably in Barron are very adaptable people.

Two days ago, Uncle Reco wanted to bring troops to support William, but he firmly dissuaded him, and during this time, Martinez was not feeling well, bandits were rampant, burning and looting.

Compared with the bandits, William suddenly found that the alien race seemed to be a little kinder.

At least the aliens don't kill on a large scale and for no reason, just like the village of Milfords, they haven't been killed by the aliens in so many years.

In addition to being poor, they have no threat of death.

But William thought about it, sometimes 'poverty' is more painful than death.

……

On July 4th, the weather was fine, not dry or dry.

The mana benchmark is located in the stern seat, and the arc is increased by seventeen.

It is advisable to perceive magic and build a mage tower.

On this day, Serrane ran to William's bedroom early in the morning and woke him up from the bed, and Charlie's butler helplessly stood at the door and ordered the maid to wash her face.

As the grand steward of the castle, Charlie knew Seranee's place in William's heart.

Even if you don't want your master to be disturbed, if it's Serani, it's nothing.

"What's the matter, Thranee, why are you up so early today?"

William rubbed Serrane's head dotingly, washed his face, and suddenly felt refreshed.

Looking out the window, the sky was bright and there were no fireworks.

Normally at this time, Selenie sleeps like a piglet, why is it so abnormal today?

"William, do you notice?"

"Huh? What? ”

"Magic, it's so much magic today, I feel like they're dancing around me."

Carrying Tiebs the bear, Thranie was full of excitement:

"I've never felt such a strong magic since I came into this world, and this feeling is so much like when I was in Vorce, lively, restless, and noisy."

Hearing Serrane's description, William became interested.

Practicing according to the basic meditation method, after a few minutes, William shook his head helplessly.

Sure enough, he wasn't the mage's material.

Not to mention feeling the magic dancing around, William didn't even feel the magic singing or not.

"Today seems to be the day of the magic tides, referred to as the day of the tides."

Speaking of which, the world's calendar has some similarities with the earth, such as the months and the number of days in the month.

No one knows who created this calendar, but it was used by several kingdoms anyway.

The name of this calendar is the "Magic Calendar".

There will be various precautions every day, such as avoiding fire, water, relocation, etc., and even avoiding laziness......

However, most of these precautions are fabricated and modified by later generations, and they have no practical significance at all.

But there are some special days in the magic calendar, and there are really special precautions.

For example, today is the year 2500 of the Magic Calendar, July 4th.

This day is known as 'Tide Day', and the magic of this day is more lively than usual, and it is easier to be captured by people with mage physique, so that cultivation is smoother.

"Serani, since today's magic is more lively, then you don't play today, and cultivate hard."

"No, no!" Serrani hugged the bear and shook her head repeatedly:

"Serani don't want to cultivate, it's boring. And the magic is lively or not, it doesn't affect me, they all dance around me anyway......

It's just that today's dance is more enthusiastic, just like the war dance of the Voos, hot and strong. ”

William: "......"

At a young age, he has already learned the Versailles language.

What a linguistic genius.

However, Serrane's expression was very serious, without the slightest look of pride, and William was even more hurt.

Who knows how sad it is for a magical waste......

"Alright, alright, you're the best, our Miss Serranie is a magical genius, a great genius!"

"Hee-hee~I'm not so good~"

After washing, William found Diana, the female mage was dressed very charmingly today, with a slender waist and a delicate face, which made William's eyes shine.

"Because it's tide day, are you dressed up to attend?"

"It's not all because of the ...... of the tides"

Diana saluted slightly, lowered her eyebrows, and secretly looked at William, but William was also looking at her, so their eyes met.

There seemed to be a crackling sound of sparks flashing in the air.

"What other reasons? What is it? ”

"No, nothing." Diana shook her head shyly.

How embarrassed she was to say, "Because today is the 18th day of knowing you."

In fact, every day she comes to Black Rock Castle, she will dress up seriously, but today's clothes are extraordinarily bright.

William invited Diana to breakfast, and she nodded silently in agreement.

On the long table, bread, cream, jam, cod, thick broth, and a plate of sautéed vegetables are arranged.

After arriving at Barron, William asked the kitchen to experiment with stir-frying, first creating an iron pot with the right thickness and then developing stir-frying.

Under the painstaking study of the chef, William finally got to eat the stir-fry he had been dreaming of.

Breakfast for the lords.

Abundance with unpretentiousness.
