After the Rangers came to the palace non-stop to meet the recess.

The Ranger knelt on the ground and said, "Report to your lordship, a young man named Anka who claimed to protect His Highness Karn back to the palace is now residing in the Knights' camp outside the royal city. ”

"Oh, and then?"

"That boy killed the white-haired goblin outside and defeated Lord Jousei in a fair duel!"

"What!"

After that, the off-season paced back and forth restlessly, thinking, "So strong? Looks like I'm clumsy, trying to win him over? Brought to the palace in case you meet Karn? Did he stand with Karn? ”

The rest then summoned his personal guard and said, "Take Karn to the back garden and don't let anyone get close, and then release the news that Karn has gone hunting in the north and will not be able to return for the time being." ”

After that, Huess thought of something and said to the rangers: "Go and prepare to let the adventurers of the silver medal and above in the city gather in the palace, I have a task to assign, and tell them that the reward is very rich, remember not to give Anka a map, and don't let him leave easily." ”

(Ranger Camp)

Ankka took off his coat and jumped on the big bed when he arrived at the room he had prepared for him, and began to roll over, whining comfortably from time to time.

At this time, Kajudil, who had been put aside, suddenly woke up and said, "Those goblin souls are so unpalatable! I don't want to eat these things next time, who gave you that magic book? ”

"Aren't you a soul of any kind?"

"Who said that! There are many flavors of souls, and to answer my question, who gave the magic book! ”

"It's a dying old man, what's wrong!"

"Do you understand?"

"You just can't teach me!"

"It's okay, there's nothing to do anyway!"

Then Kajudir asked Ankh to turn the first page and said, "Let's teach you a simple fireball first, and put your hand at the window." ”

Ankka then recited the incantation over and over again under the guidance of Kajudir, and for three hours Ankka couldn't even shake off a spark.

Kajudil said: "It doesn't make sense, why can't I teach it myself? ”

"Maybe it's too hard, why don't you start with the easy ones first!"

"It's easy enough!"

Suddenly, the young dragon Elanhi climbed up the window and roared outside, then summoned a circle and shot a huge fireball, destroying the catapult a hundred meters away.

Then Allanci jumped out of the window and wagged her tail against Anka's trouser leg, and Anka fell on the bed with a whimper and said, "I can't really be without talent!" ”

Kajudil said: "This is nothing, the magic talent of the dragon clan is not comparable to humans, after all, some powerful magic of the dragon clan can even be directly taught to the next generation through genetic methods, besides, you can't do magic, I will!" Wouldn't it be okay for me to use magic instead of you when you need it? ”

Ankha asked warily, "Why are you so nice to me?" ”

Kaduir sighed and said, "Who made me sign an equal contract with you, you need to provide me with my soul and I need to provide strength.

"Anyway, shouldn't you demons all talk and don't count?"

"Most of those demons have a verbal contract with humans, and they are not affected by the Supreme Law."

"Then why don't you make a verbal contract with me and then take the opportunity to invade my body?"

"I'm a serious demon, how can I engage in low-level deeds of deception and abduction, besides, if that emperor leaves any curse on me, then I may not be able to bear it alone, it is better to sign a symbiotic contract of equal cooperation with others to make the other person become stronger and bear the possible curse for me."

"Is that so?"

Ankh then blew out the candle and lay on the bed before a short time there was a snoring sound.

The next morning, Ankka was called out of the camp by the soldiers, while Jouseh was standing on a high platform observing the soldiers training below.

"Sorry, I seem to be waking up late!"

"It's okay, this one is for you." As he spoke, Jousei handed over a gleaming gold plaque with a mural that Ankka had seen in the church.

"Is this the highest level of adventurer? What is the painting above? ”

"That is the great deed of the legendary First Emperor to drive away demons and aliens, just thousands of years ago, thousands of years ago, the sky was as blood-red as it is now."

With that, the two raised their heads to look at the still blood-red sky, and after a moment Ankh asked, "What the hell is going on!" ”

"I don't know, but it's certainly not a good thing, by the way, Lord Huess wants to gather a large number of powerful adventurers to fight against the sudden appearance of demons, do you want to go with you? The pay is great! ”

"Food?"

"Haha, Lord Hues, but the current regent will definitely not be stingy."

Then, with Ankka's consent, Josse and Ankka rode from the top of the tall city wall to the inner wall outside the palace, and then went directly to the palace gate through the secret passage of the inner wall.

As the two walked down the hall through the narrow corridor, Ankka was surprised that there weren't many guards in the entire palace, which was a bit too dangerous.

Anka passed through the hallway as blood-red sunlight shone through the tall glass, reflecting the entire hallway in blood-red.

After a while, the two finally came to the end of the corridor, and the two pushed open the door to find that it was already full of a large number of adventurers with silver medals on their bodies, the strongest of them was only the third level of silver medals, and they also needed to complete a task with at least ten gold rewards before they could become a junior gold medal.

"Your Excellency can wait in the chair there, and I will go and inform the Lord Regent." With that, Jouseh left quickly.

After Ankka had just finished eating a table of snacks, the regent Huses and several of the guards appeared on the high platform and began to speak.

"Everyone, welcome to everyone, I'll make a long story short, as the sky turns blood-red and there are large-scale demonic invasions everywhere, I need you to help those places that are disturbed by demons, of course, the rewards are very rich, one demon can get 50 silver."

The squire then gave each person a map of where the attacks had occurred, and the danger and reward of the demons that appeared on it were also marked on it.

"What about me, please?" Ankha got up and asked after waiting for a long time because he didn't get the map, a little anxious and confused.

"If you don't get the map, please go to the warehouse with me to pick it up later."

And as Ankka asked, he noticed that all the adventurers were looking at him, whether unintentionally or deliberately, and Ankka saw in their eyes the shadows of the former slave owners and overseers, which made Ankka feel a little uncomfortable for a moment.

After that, the adventurers began to leave the palace with the map in hand, and then Hussey came to Anka's side and said, "Let's go! ”

Ankka then got up and went to a hall with the Offseason, who pushed the throne at the end to reveal a passage that stretched downward.

On the way, the rest broke the silence first: "Excuse me, do you think a person who is not doing a good job should be replaced by someone who is capable?" ”

"I don't know, but I remember that slaves who couldn't work or were sick would suddenly disappear and young slaves would appear to fill their place."

"Oh? Is Your Excellency a slave-owning family? ”

"No, I'm a slave, but first in the arena and then sold to the mines."

After that, the two fell silent for a longer time.

After that, the offseason continued: "Do you think that if a king is a mediocre bloodline waste, can he really be trusted?" ”

As if thinking of something, Ankh asked, "Did you replace the old king?" ”

"The throne was supposed to be mine." The tone of the offseason was visibly agitated, but quickly calmed down.

Upon reaching a large metal gate, Ankka asked, "Where has Karn gone?" ”

"He went north to hunt with the rest of his family."

Ankha thought for a moment and asked, "You locked him up, didn't you?" ”

Huss didn't reply, just opened the door in silence and walked in with Ankka, the entire metal rotunda was filled with hundreds of rare weapons and armor, and at the end was an ordinary well.

Ankh asked a little strangely, "Is this a warehouse?" ”

"Of course, wait a minute."

Saying that, Hussey took Ankka to the well, and after throwing a crystal into it, there was a flash of light in the well water, and then a wooden box surfaced, and Hussey took out a map from it after opening the box and handed it over.

After Ankka took the map, the rest suddenly asked, "What kind of person do you think Karn is?" ”

"I've been with him for too short, and I just know that he is very calm."

"Would you agree with Karn's decision to expand his territory through war, plunder resources, and accelerate his political goals through the plundered resources?"

"I don't know, but if the war starts there will definitely be more people who become slaves, and I don't want that."

"But he's calm, he shouldn't start a war suddenly!"

"Calm down? He is just a cold-blooded political animal who can lose everything for his own political purposes, and if he is in power, he may do even more. ”

Seeing that Anka was still hesitant and said: "Don't worry, I can't trust those wall grasses, that's why I came here to talk about this with those who are not loyal to any forces, I won't make you embarrassed and let you make this choice." ”

The two then left the underground palace and walked to the street, where passers-by all stopped to greet each other after the break.

"I saved this kingdom, I will not let others destroy him again, I hope you will remain neutral when the time comes."

"I will, your affairs have nothing to do with me, but I hope the war can stay away from here."

After a while, he said, "I recommend that you investigate the demon from here. ”

As he spoke, Husey placed his hand on a corner of the map, where the demon painting was a shade of gray.

"There have been reports of demon sightings here, and there is some danger in the royal city, I hope you can investigate it."

"Maybe it's been taken by other adventurers so close!"

"Don't worry, this map is a magical creation, if someone is dealing with it or is dealing with it, it will be marked on it, plus this demon belongs to the one that has no sighting reports, so the initial reward is very low, and those adventurers who are blinded by money will not care about this."

"Alright! I'll look into it in a moment. ”

"It's better to finish eating and be fully prepared before going."

Hearing that Anka had something to eat, he quickly agreed, and then the two came to another hall of the palace, where a long table of more than ten meters was placed in the middle of the hall, and the maids were busy placing the dishes and food.

After settling in Anka, the offseason found an excuse to leave quickly.
