The June sunshine always gets warmer and warmer day by day.
Three days had passed since the church's failed ruling that the citizens talked about so much, and two days had also passed since the Flame Demon vision that startled many people.
Although the drinkers in the tavern still mentioned the lucky Rose Society in the Holy Judgment when they were drunk, they still discussed whether the Balrog in the night sky was real or an illusion, and whether the light that killed the Balrog was the Duke, the High Priest, or someone else...
But no matter what, the past is the past, and Boulder City soon returned to its former tranquility.
That’s what the Miriam world is like.
The existence of extraordinary powers is no secret. Although people are surprised by various visions and great powers, their ability to accept them, especially in a big city like Boulder where there are third-level Blazing Suns, has always been very strong.
Of course, what’s more important is that the Duke’s Palace and the Church have never explained the vision that night. Although there are all kinds of incredible rumors, since even the Church has not shown up to explain, nor has it further alienated the people, it means that the vision that night has been resolved and there is nothing serious.
Today, many people have shifted their attention to the north gate of Boulder City.
Especially the residents in the outer city, those children running around the streets chattering.
They gathered outside the city gate, looking at the wide road leading to the north of the city with anticipation on their faces.
Today is the day when the Castel family's convoy of supplies enters the city. It has been the 20th of every month for many years.
With the development of space magic technology, although teleportation arrays and space rings have gradually become popular among extraordinary people, considering the operating costs and certain inherent defects of space technology, long-distance transportation still needs to rely on ordinary fleets.
The same is true of the wealthy Castell family.
For children from outer suburbs, this day of every month is their lucky day.
"Haven't you come yet?"
"It should be almost time, right? It's about this time every month!"
"I wonder how many silver tana I can pick up today!"
Looking at the end of the horizon, the children discussed excitedly.
However, outside the city gate, the most eye-catching thing was not the gathered children.
The most eye-catching thing was a group of people standing on the side of the road.
The gorgeous carriage is engraved with delicate and intricate patterns, and the Black Eagle logo on the side is particularly eye-catching.
Young boys and girls in black and white uniforms stood respectfully, surrounding a gorgeous umbrella that blocked out the scorching sun in the sky.
Under the umbrella, a girl in a black and red Gothic dress was sitting on a makeshift lounge chair, looking into the distance.
Many passers-by found it difficult to take their eyes off the beautiful girl.
Some traveling merchants who came to Boulder for the first time could not help but ask their companions and guides about her origins:
"Who is that beautiful noble girl? She has such a good temperament! Is she the daughter of some noble family?"
However, they are often met with contemptuous looks from their companions or the residents of Boulder:
"Who is it? Didn't you see the family crest on the side of the carriage?"
When the merchants noticed the logo on the side of the carriage, they all realized what was going on and looked at the girl with curiosity, longing and yearning:
"The Two-Headed Black Eagle... So she is from the Castel family! So, she is the heir of Castel?"
"Charlotte! She's Charlotte! The pearl of Castel, the richest maiden in Boulder!"
"I heard that whoever marries her will get half of the Principality of Boulder as a dowry! The wealth of the entire Star-Moon Lowlands will be in his hands!"
"Hey, that's a thing of the past. You don't know that Castel's heir is a devout believer in God. She has decided not to marry for life and will donate the territory to the church after returning to the Kingdom of God."
"Hiss... Is this true? That's such a pity!"
"Dedicate it to the church? Is Duke of Bold willing? Is His Majesty the King willing?"
"I don't know. The affairs of the nobles and priests are not our concern."
Passersby were talking about it.
Charlotte, who was very perceptive, also heard everything everyone was discussing about her.
"I am really famous... Even outside the city gate, there are so many people who care about me."
She couldn't help but laugh at herself.
Beside her, Sebastian smiled and complimented her, as skillfully as ever:
"Of course, my dear master, your brilliance will make you the focus wherever you go."
Charlotte: …
She ignored Sebastian's meaningless flattery and looked at the increasingly dazzling sunlight.
Even with the umbrella covering her, the scattered light still made her feel uncomfortable.
As if noticing the girl's discomfort, Quasimodo, who was standing on the other side, couldn't help but say:
"Master, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Actually... you don't have to come to greet me in person."
"No problem. As the head of Castel, I feel it is necessary for me to personally welcome the family knights who have come from afar after I inherit the position of head of the family."
Charlotte said with a smile.
Of course, the actual reason was that she was quite curious about the armored knights in the world of Miria. She had played them many times in games in her previous life, but had never seen one in real life.
War horses and armor are also men’s romance!
As the children looked on expectantly, gradually, they saw a cloud of smoke spreading at the end of the horizon.
Some of the older children's eyes suddenly brightened:
"Here it comes! Here it comes! I think I see Castel's flag!"
Charlotte's heart moved slightly.
She looked in the direction of the smoke and soon saw a group of people at the end of her sight.
The first thing that catches your eye is an armored knight wearing a black cloak, and the black warhorse under him is also armored, which looks very majestic.
On his side, there were two armored knights with black eagle flags behind them, one on the left and one on the right.
Further away, carriages loaded with goods, escorted by uniformly dressed armored knights, gradually came into view.
"Here they come! They are coming!"
The children cheered and immediately ran towards the convoy excitedly.
Every time the Castel family's caravan entered the city, they would throw out rewards, all of which were silver Tana, which was very attractive to them.
Charlotte stood up unconsciously, looking at the approaching armored knight with the same excitement.
knight!
Knights from the Territory!
Her knight!
After traveling through time, she had been alone for so long, building up her own power bit by bit. When she saw the convoy, she finally felt for the first time that she was really an earl...
The convoy gradually approached in a mighty manner.
After seeing the carriage of the Castel family in front of the city gate and the blonde girl surrounded by maids and waiters, the leading armored knight quickly became serious.
He patted the horse's back lightly, and the black horse under him immediately sped up, quickly leaving the team and rushing in front of everyone.
The dusty knight got off his horse and knelt on one knee. He bowed respectfully in front of Charlotte and said in a deep voice:
"Sharon... Meet Miss Charlotte!"
