The town that Olmedo bought was in the western part of the empire, about 2,000 miles from Sertovice, next to the Third Monster Mountains. The town was crammed with her and Annan's people, at the cost of more than 8,000 people even if the fringe town, which was originally only more than 3,000 people...... Again, this was the result of the dispersal of all the inhabitants and the disbandment of the musketeers.

Before leaving, Annan recovered the plate armor and musket, and sealed the magic cannon. Annan also did not want to deprive the musketeers of their weapons and armor, but feared that these things would cause them problems.

Annan let the copper whiskers and gravel continue to study howitzer shells and houses. And Elimoas, who left the day after her arrival, saying that she sensed that her people were deep in the mountains. Annan made an agreement with it to get a new fief, and after getting a new fief, he would build it a blue dragon lair that was even better and more beautiful than Xingyue Bay.

Olmedo buried himself in government again. Annan didn't intervene, and those government affairs were like burning a spell that made him dizzy.

In short, when Annan teleported to Sertovis several times through the stinky Monsieur Swarro's portal and Alice, and then got into the carriage to the mansion, a day had passed, and he had not eaten.

"I'm hungry......"

Annan frowned and leaned back on the couch.

Martin wasn't hungry at all. Because he ate all of Annan's food before he wittily packed himself into his suitcase - the first time he hid in his suitcase and starved Martin for a long time.

Martin doesn't make the same mistake a second time.

But Annan would.

Several times, Annan looked back at the suitcase that was dead on the carpet, wishing that what he had experienced was just a dream. No money, no shirts, no magic recording stones......

Annan couldn't even hold the magic recording stone and quietly ask others, "Do you want to see the recording stone?" Big scenes, heavy tastes, and rat people. ”。

The only ones who could exchange money were the mage robe and the magic ring and Annan himself - the former burned protective spells, which were the key to Annan's survival. In the middle is burned the elemental summoning, which is the foundation of territory construction. Latter......

This is the time to get out of town...... There was no carriage, and it was evening before I came back. Annan had no choice but to urge Martin to find some work in the tavern, while it was still dark.

Fortunately, Martin was obedient and obediently went to work in a tavern on the same street. You don't need to use labor, just give you something to eat.

Annan stood in this second-floor room overlooking the city. This is the inner city of Sletovis, and it is relatively not so chaotic.

It wasn't long before Martin came running back with the smell of wine from the tavern and two pieces of bread that hadn't been touched.

"The boss didn't want to use me, so I said I had escaped from the Ratmen from the North, and he saw that I was pitiful and gave me some food......

Annan took the bread and found Martin staring at one of the pieces, and reluctantly gave him half of it—after all, Martin had brought it back.

Sitting in front of the window with Martin, looking at the beautiful sunset and the elongated shadow of the floating tower above Wilhelm on the other side of the channel, munching on a somewhat hard bran bread,

It was Annan's first day of life in the Tatooan Empire. Just like on the first day in the kingdom of Rekaner.

……

Early the next morning, Annan was awakened by hunger.

In the next living room, Martin's snoring came in.

A new day, but no new mood...... Realizing that this would not work, Annan first cleaned himself up with cleaning techniques and woke up Martin: "I'll go find Alice, you stay in the guest room, don't run around." ”

"Got it...... Cousin......"

Martin, whose eyelids were glued to each other from sleep, rolled over.

Annan left the mansion and asked passers-by about the location of the Magic Academy, and walked along the bustling street to the Magic Academy while enjoying the street view.

A few blocks away, Annan saw the spire-like buildings in the distance, like a vast ancient castle.

This scene evokes Annan's yearning for campus life in the wizarding world: an old and wise dean, professors with different personalities, ample extracurricular activities, and a terrifying conspiracy buried deep in the college......

When he came to the gate of the Academy of Magic, he saw the students wandering around the manor-like garden, swaying with vitality, and Annan, the nezumi nemesis who killed hundreds of thousands of rat men, whispered in a deep voice: "So I have unconsciously grown up far beyond my peers? ”

A girl in a student robe looked curiously to bring Annan back to normal.

"Do you know Alice?"

The cheeks of a girl about the same age as Annan were slightly red: "I know Alice, are you also a student?" ”

"I'm not a student here yet......"

"I'll take you and wait for her."

Annan readily agreed, and was just about to walk into the magic academy with the girl when Alice jumped out of a carriage.

"Why are you here today? It's not a ...... tomorrow Forget it, it's here anyway. Taking Annan's hand, "I'll take you through the academy first." ”

Annan was pulled forward, turning back and thanking the regretful girl.

"How are the students here?" Alice asked.

"Friendly and welcoming."

"Is that the same in Breeze?"

"It's not like that for girls from the North." Annan recalled: "They would pounce on me and drag me to the room. ”

Annan, who remembered something, quietly withdrew his hand, only to be noticed by Alice: "You won't hold hands with a girl for the first time, will you?" ”

Annanden retorted: "How can you smear people's innocence? I've pulled Tasia, I've touched Elimoas, and I've been shoulder to shoulder with Maria! ”

"Who is Tasia?"

"A half-minotaur ......"

"Elimoas doesn't look like a human name......"

"Elimoas is a blue dragon."

"Is Maria an elf or an orc?"

"It's a nezumi."

Alice glanced at Annan a few times, and suddenly said, "You are a warlock." ”

Salz School of Magic and Wizardry is larger than expected, and Alice introduces that it is divided into several areas, a teaching area, a rest area, an entertainment area, and a library area.

Alice didn't lead Annan to hang out, and there will be opportunities in the future. She brought Annan to the classroom, and the energetic teenagers and girls looked at each other at the same time.

"Alice?" The young female professor wondered.

"He's tomorrow's new classmate, and I want to take him to meet you first." Alice stepped back and said, "Introduce yourself." ”

Annan bowed his head and stood on the podium: "I'm Annan Reeves, I'm from the North, and I like to make friends...... Human friends. ”

Annan, who deliberately fought back at Alice, accidentally smiled.

The boys' hearts were racing.

The girls stared at him excitedly.

The gardener outside the window stopped.

Even the professor was scrutinizing Annan.

In the end, Alice interrupted his charm by dragging Annan away, and after Annan left, the students who woke up began to whisper......

Standing at the top of the tower, the sparkling sea over the harbor in the distance and the seagulls hovering under the blue sky and white clouds float in front of you.

"You like the sea?" Alice asked Annan, who was standing by the window.

"Hmmm......"

These will make Annan think of Xingyue Bay. And as he meditated, a quiet, mysterious aura permeated the side of his face.

"Looks like you've already thought about a new fief." Alice admired Annan's face.

And Annan, who had gained faith, said: "I will build a bridge to Wilhelm!" ”
