The time passed leisurely, and Lorraine Hill lived a leisurely life in Emenas for a few weeks. Except for sometimes learning some instruments and songs with Mrs. Filia in the morning, she left Emenas at other times. Once again, from the familiar city walls and forests, to the snow-capped mountains and rope bridges in the north, from the bridge that never falls across the river, to the trees and squares of the central school building, and so on.
In the end, Roland Hill's footsteps also came to the Temple Academy on the west side of Emenas. It was still as quiet as before. Occasionally, I saw a few Temple students who stayed at the school. They wore black and white uniforms in the Temple. He walked past the square and chatted with each other in a low voice.
There is a college cemetery on the back hill on the north side of Temple College. Occasionally, some people outside the school can be seen here to pay homage. They will put blue bouquets in front of the tombstone, and then pray silently, silently recalling, it took a long time. will go away.
Compared with the past, there are many new tombstones here. When Roland Hill walked in this cemetery, he also saw one or two familiar names. They entered Emenas in the same year as Roland Hill. Students, some have died in these years of war.
"Excuse me..." Just as Roland Hill was walking down the path in the cemetery, there was a questioning voice behind him.
Because there was no one else around, Roland Hill turned around at this time.
The voice was a bearded man in a dark grey leather jacket that seemed weathered and had a lot of wear and tear on his clothes.
"Sorry, I made a mistake." After seeing Roland Hill's face, he bowed his head a little regretfully.
"Maybe I'm not mistaken, Senior Kuye." Roland Hill propped up the hair on the side of his ear with one hand, and then it slowly turned black, and the eye boy also turned to the bright red of the past.
"This, is this, this, this is actually the case." Looking at Roland Hill's changing hair color and appearance, this man still couldn't recognize this President Roland.
When he was in Emenas in the past, he was a club leader of the Walled City College. At that time, it was also due to the changes in the school, and he joined several other club leaders, Yin Geli, Hongfan, Atati, Leng and others. The society where Roland Hill belonged later experienced many things in the battle with the 'Black Queen'.
"Then it seems that Loran is Rosie, and it is like this, no wonder, no wonder." It seemed that some of the doubts of the year were instantly cleared, and he understood a lot of past events.
"That's some kind of willfulness in the student days, uh, it's actually because of the arrangement of the dean." Roland Hill stirred his hair with his fingers and explained with a little embarrassment.
"These things don't seem to matter now." Kuye shook his head, then raised his head and continued to ask Loren Hill.
"I just didn't expect to see President Lorraine." His voice was full of emotion.
In this way, the two walked to the stone bench resting place in the corner of the cemetery and sat down, and continued to talk about the events of these years.
"My hometown is in the northern cliffs of the empire, and it is also a very cold and barren county in the north..." Withered Ye slowly recounted the experience of these years.
"After graduation, under my father's arrangement, I worked in a chamber of commerce in Tainia. Most of the members of that chamber of commerce are from the north."
"Because of the barrenness of the north, many people think of going south to make a living. Of course, those who can come out are generally rich nobles or rich people."
"Our Chamber of Commerce also travels between the north and the middle every year, transporting some products from the north to the south to make money, and then returning to the north with the purchased food and daily necessities."
"The empire has taken care of the chambers of commerce in the north, and has reduced or exempted a lot of tariffs, so that our chambers of commerce can survive."
"Did it surprise the president?" The man smiled when he talked about his work in the chamber of commerce.
"Although I am a little surprised, it seems to be acceptable." Roland Hill was not too surprised.
"Being a businessman is relatively unseemly in the eyes of the upper echelons of the empire, so the direct heir is generally not allowed to do this. But I am the only son in the family. If I want to inherit the title in the future, I naturally need to know the important food sources and income issues of the territory, so It was arranged to experience and learn.”
"Actually, that time was not bad. I traveled a lot with the team and saw and saw a lot of new things, and it was not so boring and uncomfortable."
"But it was different afterwards. The empire launched an expedition, many caravans were requisitioned, and the chamber of commerce was also assigned tasks and indicators by the emperor. At that time, various places also entered a state of preparation and recruitment."
"Since then, I was called back by my father again and began to contact the affairs of the home territory."
"Unfortunately, I'm not really good at this. It's really difficult to deal with complex interpersonal relationships, so my father found me another marriage partner."
"The other party is a viscount's daughter from a neighboring province. Although she is a bit strong, she really helped me take care of the affairs in the territory."
"Originally, I thought that my future life would be about being a conservative and stable little lord like my father, and then raising my own children and successors."
"It's a pity that things in the empire have changed too quickly."
"Afterwards, I experienced cold disasters and wars. Even this small place I was in was not immune."
"I took the soldiers under my command, along with other lords of the neighboring county, to follow the call of the Duke of Raven and start participating in the war."

"All kinds of twists and turns, fighting with the emperor's army, confronting the army in the east, and finally participating in the long-term confrontation between the east and west empires."
"A lot of my peers when I was young died in this war, and their families were torn apart, disappearing in migration and war."
"This time I went back to Emenas to pay tribute to a former classmate. He graduated a year earlier than me and was much more talented than me. I didn't expect that he later thought I died first."
"Looking back on my playmates and peers when I was a child, many of them are gone now, and it is inevitable that I will feel a little embarrassed."
"It's an unexpected joy to see President Lorraine again this time."
"After graduating at that time, everyone couldn't find out about you again, even if you asked Bumansha, and then no one thought that Lily would become the queen, and some members of the society became the queen's party. Rapid rise within the empire."
"However, these are not important now. It is a kind of luck to see familiar people still alive."
He said a lot and seemed to pour out a lot of things that he had suppressed over the years, and it didn't feel a bit wrong until the end.
"Sorry, sorry, I pulled President Lorraine and said a lot of things I didn't know."
"It doesn't matter, but now that I have graduated, you don't need to call me the president anymore, just call me Lorraine." The girl responded with a smile.
"In this way, although it is true, I always feel that it is disrespectful to call the name directly. Perhaps President Lorraine left a deep impression on us back then, haha."
"President Lorraine is the best person I've ever met. Looking back now, many of the president's words were so predictable. It's just that I didn't remember them well at the time." Dead Leaf shook his head.
When Loren Hill was in the academy, he occasionally talked to the members of the society about the backlog of the empire. Although everyone thought it was great at the time, they didn't take it too seriously. It wasn't until many years after graduation that many things came true, and I recalled this. The insight of the president.
"No need to mention it, who would have thought that so many changes would happen in the empire in just a few years." Roland Hill also sighed and looked up at the sky above his head.
In the late summer of Emenas, the sky is still blue with a few clouds.
The two continued to say a few more words, and when it came time to part, Dead Leaf invited Roland Hill again.
"I opened a shop in the town on the west side of Emenas. I will do some furniture and carpentry work. If you are free, the president can come and have a look."
"Have you moved here?" The girl was a little surprised and surprised at this moment.
"Yes, I don't want to go through any more twists and turns. The small fief of my family has long been submerged by heavy snow in the cold disaster. Later, most of the people migrated to the south. Now that there is turmoil in the empire, it is better to directly Give up and move to a safe place."
"Father and mother went to the South, and I came here with my wife."
"So that's the case, will she have any opinion, after all, she used to be the daughter of the Viscount." Roland Hill asked curiously.
"It may have been in the past, but our family has also experienced a lot of things, and now I think about it."
"That's fine."
Afterwards, Roland Hill stood on the steps and watched the man wave his hand and slowly walked towards the academy's square and crowd.
I don't know why, but it's kind of sad.
Roland Hill looked at the sky above his head, blocked the sunlight with his hands, and trotted down the steps.
He walked like this at a trot, until he walked out of the west gate of Emenas, and then slowly stopped.
Unconsciously since I came here.
She looked at the town with smoke and birds, and remembered the scene of the first time she came here that day. It would still be the clothes she wore when she and a few roommates came to the town to buy the college.
Thinking in his mind, Lorraine Hill once again set foot on the flagstone path leading to the country fields.
Through the golden waves of wheat fields, step by step came to the familiar shop.
The dress shop has a painted sign that says 'Gem Flowers', and walking into the store, a young clerk is taking a nap behind the counter.
"Hello, is this place open?" Roland Hill came to the counter.
Hearing the voice, the clerk woke up suddenly, and saw this beautiful silver-haired girl in front of him, he was a little stunned, and then quickly said, "Open, what do you need?"
"We have cool dresses, hats, shoes, etc. suitable for summer, and some other coats, which can also be put on when autumn arrives. Rest assured, these clothes are very good in style. We have and Anemi Yin Cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce, which is known for its brand and reputation.”
With that said, he got up and introduced Roland Hill one by one.
"Anie Miyin..." Roland Hill thought of Feng Nao, and then thought of their family's coat of arms, which were gems and flowers.
Could it be that Kayano's ancestors have some connection with the gem witch Servius.
"Actually, I know your store manager, or boss, and I came here to meet her this time."
"Hey, is that so, but our store manager seldom comes to the store and doesn't necessarily know you." He hesitated, although the girl was very beautiful, but the mysterious store manager didn't dare to offend and disturb her.
"It doesn't matter, if this young lady comes in the future, just notify me directly." A familiar voice sounded behind the clerk.
"Sir, you're here." He turned around in surprise, only to see the lady in a dark blue dress standing behind him at some point.
"This is our honored guest. The lady Feng Nai you admire is also a friend of this lady. You can be a little more enthusiastic next time."
"Yes, my lord." The clerk immediately agreed, with a serious expression that made people laugh.
Servis shook his head slightly at this, and then led Roland Hill to the backyard of the store.
"I didn't expect Lorraine to come to me." Servis and Lorraine Hill sat under a big tree in the backyard. There were reclining chairs and a small table, which seemed to be used by the witch herself.
"Because I went back to Emenas to see the teacher, I came here unknowingly." Roland Hill stroked his hair and said a little embarrassedly.
"That's good too, I didn't have to be so restrained." Looking at Loren Hill's appearance, Servis knew that she still had some knots.
"Do you feel a little afraid to see Si Ye again?"
"Oh, this, I have that feeling." After all, he beat up someone, and tore up a lot of Si Ye's books.
Looking back on the experience two months ago, Roland Hill wanted to raise the cup in front of him to cover his face, but he really ignored it and slapped the two seniors in the face.
Tidis was okay, and didn't care about the outcome. Afterwards, he dragged Loren Hill to talk about a lot of things, while Si Ye and Chris left directly without saying a word.
Seeing Roland Hill's lovely appearance, Servis couldn't help but smile, and then slowly started talking about something.
"It's actually not as serious as you think." Servis picked up the curling pot on the side and poured a cool fruit wine for Roland Hill and himself.
"Si Ye is actually very easy to get along with, it's just that she doesn't know how to deal with some interpersonal relationships, and sometimes she gets into a stagnant situation."
"What happened in the past, sigh, it's hard to tell now, I just hope you don't think that Si Ye has a lot of evil intentions because of this. In fact, that incident was the result of many coincidences, and it's not good for both parties. result."
"Even if Tidais knew the reason, she still couldn't get through it emotionally, but she also knew that this was not the way to go. Someone had to bridge the relationship between the two witches again."
"And you are that key person."
"You were born very late, and you are not stained with past events and karma. Which witch sees you, she has to take care of the younger generation, although the younger generation like you is indeed very 'special'." She couldn't help but say that. Laughing, the junior who beat the two big witch seniors violently doesn't look like he needs to be taken care of.
"Let's visit Si Ye in a few days, she and Chris live in the tower on the east side of the forest, I remember Si Ye prefers to eat creamy croissants, you can bring her some before you go, when she eats it When it comes to things, she will be embarrassed, and in such a case, because she is embarrassed, she will become quite talkative."
"As for Chris, you don't have to worry at all. If someone makes fun of Si Ye, she will definitely be an accomplice on the side, but she and Si Ye have a really good relationship. If someone bullies Si Ye, she will definitely stand by her side. side."
The gem witch and Roland Hill were talking about the past acquaintance with Si Ye, and it was a long time ago. At that time, Si Ye had not yet become the head of the academy, and followed his companions to collect books and knowledge all over the world. Made a lot of people.
"Speaking of which, it was also a travel experience. Si Ye and I met the first-generation Anemi Yin Patriarch at that time. At that time, he was just a retired officer. Later, he became an important member of our team. All the matters negotiated by outsiders are resolved by him."
"After traveling for many years, he reluctantly found out that his teammates were witches, and then settled down in the southern part of the empire. I also taught him a lot of secret techniques for refining gems, and later the family crest of gems."
"It will be hundreds of years later when the descendants of the Anemi Yin family have migrated and turned to Hopeland."
Time is long, vicissitudes of life.
