One o'clock in the afternoon.

'Gollum~Gollum~~'

The carriage of the Pure World Sanctuary stopped at the door of the Sunshine Building.

Lawson jumped out of the carriage, waved goodbye to Xia Lina, then took out the key, opened the door and walked into the courtyard.

In the small courtyard, the gardener was weeding in the garden, and the cleaning maid was washing clothes in the sink by the courtyard wall.

When he saw that it was Rosen, he immediately saluted and called him 'Mr. Rosen'.

But the gardener's proximity and pointed eyes made him see the official mage insignia on Rosen's chest.

His expression shook suddenly, and his straightened body bent down again: "Master Lawson." ”

Being able to work as a gardener in the Green Leaf District, he naturally has some insight, not only knowing the official mage emblem, but also clearly knowing the value of a young formal mage.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the future is promising.

So he was so humble that his head was bent into the dirt.

Rosen waved his hand: "Keep busy, don't pay attention to me." ”

He strolled towards the stone house, and as soon as he reached the door, before he could knock on it, the door opened automatically, and a figure in a crimson dress greeted him.

None other than Alice. Thrandis.

Standing at the door, she directly gave Rosen a warm hug, hugged it tightly, and was reluctant to let go.

"My dearest apprentice, I didn't expect you to go to the battlefield!"

"You're not hurt, are you?"

These days, news of the war has spread all over the world, and it reached her ears at dinner yesterday, keeping her awake all night.

Lawson couldn't move when his body was held, so he could only shrug his shoulders slightly: "Mentor, if you hold on a little tighter, I may be about to be injured if I can't hold on." ”

"Hee-hee, it looks like you're not hurt, that's great."

Thrandis let go of Lawson and took a step back to take a closer look, only to see the Mithril insignia on his chest.

"Phnom Penh Mithril Emblem, low-level Divine Seal Mage Oh~ My apprentice, no, I can't call you an apprentice now, I have to change my name to Master Lawson."

"No, mentor, I will always be your apprentice."

"Ah~ This is really comforting to me, but it still can't be called an apprentice, after all, this coincides with the name of an apprentice in magic. Hmm~~ I have to change my name, let me think about what to call you. ”

Thrandis dragged Rosen back to the living room, where he wanted to sit down, but felt that the living room was not private enough, so he dragged him to the flower hall on the second floor.

After releasing a home protection technique to isolate the inside and outside, she and Rosen sat side by side on a thick-leather bench: "My dearest. Oh, no, what should it be called? ”

Rosen smiled: "Didn't you call your father before?" ”

Thrandis immediately called: "Then father, daughter is curious to know, what did you experience on the battlefield that made you a full-fledged mage at once?" ”

After speaking, he said: "It must be very dangerous and very difficult, right?" ”

In the private place, the passionate Alice no longer controls her emotions, and as she speaks, her body is close to Rosen, and her head rests on his shoulder.

Rosen naturally won't hide it, except for the details of Olekya's repayment, everything else will come together.

By the time he had finished, Thrandis's eyes were blinking, and tears were already faintly visible.

"Oh~ my dear father, is the outside world really worth your hard work? My daughter almost never saw you again. ”

In a stirring mood, she reached out and hugged Lawson, holding his head tightly to her chest, as if she was worried that as soon as she let go, Lawson would die with the wind.

Rosen felt Thrandis's visceral worry, and his cheeks were close to his broad chest, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Hey~ No wonder people say that Gentle Township is a hero's mound, and when you return from the war, you are physically and mentally exhausted, and you need to be gently soothed when you come to such a show, but if you have almost the will, you will definitely be intoxicated and unable to extricate yourself."

However, he does need a good rest, and the mentor is a haven to soothe the tired soul.

So, he let his mentor embrace, did not move, and did not speak.

Thrandis seemed to sense something, and asked softly, "My father is a hero who has returned from the battlefield, and even if he is not physically injured, his mind must be very tired, right?" ”

Rosen nodded lightly: "Too many lives have been lost on the battlefield, and the eyes are full of endless pain and misery. ”

His current mind is naturally able to bear this, but every time he thinks about the bloody battlefield, his heart is still very uncomfortable.

Thrandis lowered her head and rubbed her smooth and soft face against Rosen's face, her murmuring voice echoing through the hall.

"Even though I know you have extraordinary memories, my daughter will still do her best to help you forget it, even if it's just for a while."

The woman's warm and gentle soothing is indeed a good medicine for the treatment of spiritual wounds, and Rosen suddenly felt much more comfortable.

"My little sweetheart~I'm very moved~"

After a while, when the agitated mood of both sides calmed down and cleaned up the mess on the thick leather bench, Lawson opened the leather satchel and took out the documents inside one by one.

"Because I saved Uncle Shapole and helped the Legion defeat the Ice Dwarves, and had good military merits, the Earl made me a hereditary knight and gave me a piece of land. The location is about 15 miles away on the southern outskirts of Silvermoon Fort, not large, 300 Rabang. ”

300 Laban, converted to the earth, is about 8,000 acres of land, which is about the same as a very large university campus.

Thrandis was taken aback again: "So, my dear father, is he already a noble lord?" ”

The vast majority of knights were honorary titles, and only a small number were granted land, and even fewer were granted hereditary qualifications.

Rosen immediately had a hereditary title and land, although the area was not large, but the status immediately opened a huge gap with the commoners.

Of course, there was also a status gap between the aristocracy.

The size of the territory, whether it is rich, the number of people, whether the bloodline is ancient, whether it has God-given qualifications, etc., are all yardsticks for judging the status of the nobility.

Thrandis, for example, has a noble surname.

But strictly speaking, she should be called a noble child from a noble family, because she has no territory of her own and no title, so her actual status and rich commoners cannot be separated.

Of course, because she is still a mid-level twelve-star official mage, she is basically a title equivalent to that of Jazz, and if she is not so withdrawn, she can also mix very well.

Back to business.

Lawson looked at the document in his hand, which recorded the information in the territory.

"The territory is a fertile plain near the Momiji Mountains, with a small river winding through it. There is a small village called 'Filand', with a total of 367 households, who work together to cultivate about 200 farmlands in Rabang, using the three-to-three-wheel farming method."

After reading it, he said: "Because the village is called Filand, Filand has become my surname, and because I have a knighthood, my full name is Rosen. Morality. Philand. ”

In this world, the social status of the Divine Seal Mage, the Official Mage, and the Sir is similar, but there are subtle differences.

To put it simply, it is a question of 'scope of application'.

The Divine Seal is the title of the Golden Church System, which means that it has received initial approval from God and is generally given to mid-level clergy.

The official mage is the only way to enter the upper echelons of the mage circle, and without this identity, you can't even raise your head when you see the official mage.

Jazz, on the other hand, means that the secular aristocracy, which has a high weight in the hearts of the general public, is usually the threshold for entering the lord's political system.

The political officials of the big cities all have knightly titles, which are somewhat similar to the ancient Jinshi qualifications.

Now, Rosen's status as 'Official Divine Seal Mage Sir Filand' means that he has received the key to every realm of Silvermoon Castle's upper society.

Back to business.

Thrandis immediately cried out sweetly: "Ah~ My father is Lord Sir Filand, should that daughter change her name to Alice. Philander, to be completely separated from Anna? ”

She thought about it seriously.

Rosen was already very accustomed to Alice's freedom and uninhibitedness, and smiled: "As long as my little sweetheart is happy." ”

"Okay, it's decided, I'll be called Alice from now on. Philand. ”

Rosen assumed that she was joking and continued to introduce.

"I've estimated that the territory will only bring me less than 500 crowns a year at most. This must be carefully managed, and every effort must be made to withhold the income of the people. ”

"But I don't want to be a harsh lord, so I expect to earn 200 kroner a year."

He wants to learn spells, but he doesn't have the time to take care of them, so the income from the territory will definitely not be too high.

Having said that, 8,000 acres of land can't take care of any big flowers, but will involve a huge amount of energy.

Alice immediately suggested, "Father can ask a butler to help take care of it." ”

"As far as my daughter knows, there are many such professional housekeepers in every city, and the annuity will not exceed 50 crowns a year, but they can manage the territory in an orderly manner, so that there will be no chaos, and they can also increase their income a little."

"Well, that's a good idea, then I'll go find a housekeeper."

The matter of the territory, for the time being, is like this, and it is impossible for him to put too much thought into it.

Usually stay, I will always build in the sun, not my own territory, because the place is too far away from the city, and it is inconvenient to do anything.

Finally, Rosen took out the two spell books that the Count had given him.

Thrandis was taken aback when he looked at it, and the casual look on his face disappeared completely.

"Prepare to cast spells, keep the focus ring, these are the Count's famous stunts!"

Rosen naturally knew that this thing was a good thing, but he didn't know how good it was, and looking at the appearance of the mentor, he seemed to know the details, so he asked, "How powerful is it?" ”

"Prepare for casting, through a unique spellcasting technique, release up to five spells in half early and constant. When needed, you can flexibly choose to burst one or several, or even all of them together, to achieve the strongest attack effect. ”

As soon as Lawson heard it, he knew that this was a powerful thing, which could greatly improve a mage's adaptability and spell explosiveness, and it was indeed a stunt for killing people and overselling goods.

"Constant focus ring, a constant focus ring on the wrist. The mana that passes through the Ring of Focus will greatly increase the mana strength, which will greatly increase the power of the next three spells. ”

"How big is it?"

"I don't know the exact value, but it is said to be increased by percentage, at least above 40%, and it can be used in a wide range, from low-level to high-level."

Lawson gasped: "It's really a famous stunt!" ”

The Earl gave him these two stunts, perhaps she didn't teach the most powerful version, but it was enough to raise Lawson's combat power to a big level.

He secretly said in his heart: "Hmm~~ It seems that the Earl really values me." ’

But he still felt that there was something inadequate, so he asked, "Then these two spells, can they be used together?" ”

If you can cooperate, it's a magic skill!

Thrandis shook his head: "It seems that it can't, because the Count has never done that." But whether we can study it or not, we will know. ”

The two of them began to read the contents of the book in detail.

Half an hour later, the conclusion was reached.

Thrandis shook his head: "It doesn't seem to work. ”

Lawson found a possible opportunity: "If you use the upper class, it seems that there is a possibility of integration." ”

Thrandis raised his eyebrows, thought carefully, and nodded: "Really." ”

Then there's something to do.

Rosen said: "Little sweetheart, I left in a hurry last time, which caused the research on flow to be suddenly interrupted, let's start again?" ”

Thrandis grinned: "Father, my daughter has been waiting for your words!" ”
