"Hey, my name is Claude Field. I come from White Deer City in the Kingdom of Overas. I am now ordered to station in Squirrel Village. Nice to meet you. Can you tell me your name?" Claude introduced himself very gracefully. Ask the girl mage again for her name.
The young mage only gave him the back of his head.
"I don't mean any harm. You know that I am actually a magician. Even my mother doesn't know this identity. I was very scared when I was practicing. I was worried that others would come after me after knowing my identity as a magician, so I also I have imagined many possibilities. Once someone discovers me, I will have to leave home and run away. Either I will wander around the world in the future, or I will hide in the mountains and forests and live alone like you. I am not giving you these things because I want to get something from you, but just a A magician helps another magician."
The young mage pricked up her ears to listen to Claude's story, but she still didn't speak.
Claude, however, kept to himself and recalled how he became a magician. Starting from occasionally getting a magic recipe in the grocery store, he obtained the diary and magic notes left by an ordinary rune mage. The Diary of Master Wenwen went to practice meditation and embarked on the road of becoming a magician.
He talked a lot with the young mage, such as how he learned about the reality of magic in the mainland from Madam Maria, and how he encountered another wild magician who robbed and killed him when he went to the underground purchasing point to purchase magic talisman materials. A narrow escape from death. Of course, he did not say what the seven basic spells he practiced were. No matter what the situation, he had to be on guard.
Rather than saying that Claude was telling the young mage how he became a magician, it would be better to say that he was reviewing everything he experienced after traveling to this different world. In just two years, from the age of sixteen to adulthood at the age of eighteen, so many changes occurred during this period, forcing him to finally embark on the road of joining the army. And now, he is about to be 21 years old. It has been nearly three years since he joined the army. Time flies so fast.
After telling his story, Claude lay on the grass, feeling relaxed and happy physically and mentally, as if he had let go of the heaviest package in his heart. Sometimes telling a stranger the secrets in your heart can really bring you a sense of relaxation. Although you don’t know the name of the young mage and they are not familiar with each other, Claude’s intuition tells him that the young mage has nothing to do with him. threats.
"Then, are you still practicing meditation?" After a long time, the young mage finally broke the silence between the two.
"Yes now," Claude nodded. He didn't know if the young mage saw this action with her back turned to him: "I didn't practice when I first joined the army, because I was still a recruit at that time and lived in a big tent. A small team of ten The two of us lived in a camping tent together. First, there were many people snoring at night, so I couldn't get quiet. Second, I was worried that there would be actions or orders in the middle of the night. I didn't know anything when I was practicing meditation, so I would be easily disturbed or My identity was exposed, so I could only practice once in a while, and I had to find someone to be alone with when it was convenient.
It wasn't until last year, when I was promoted to second lieutenant and living in a tent alone, that I started to continue practicing. As a result, I wasted a lot of time and I still haven't been promoted to the second-level rune mage. When I joined the army, I had already practiced less than half of it, but in the past two and a half years, I have not even reached half of the progress. If I don't make progress, I will fall back. In practice, you need to persevere and not relax."
"But, I don't understand, you, you are a magician, why do you want to join the army? You can just leave, or like us, live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and no one will arrest you." The young mage finally turned her head and stared at Claude, her big eyes making Claude nervous.
With a wry smile, Claude looked at her calmly: "You don't understand, you are in the Eskiline Principality, which is a lord system. The territory you are in now is called the baron territory. If you don't get With the permission of the baron lord, no one can enter the territory to arrest magicians like you who are hiding in the mountains and forests. Generally speaking, as long as you don't cause trouble to the lord, most of the territorial nobles will not look for trouble to deal with you. Maybe They also need you to make them some magic items to trade with.
I am in the Kingdom of Overas, which implements a system of noble honors. There is no private noble territory, and the entire kingdom is under the royal family.
