The Sunken Palace, former site of the Thieves Guild of Constantinople.
"… So it was by hiding in this cistern that the citizens of Constantinople were saved from the Seljuk infidels six years ago, until our great Storm Queen revived Solomon…"
The tour guide led the next group of tourists to board the ship and enter the sunken palace. Ask watched from outside and did not choose to follow them in.
He began to doubt whether he was getting old, because frequently reminiscing about the past and lamenting about life were habits only of the elderly.
However, just standing outside, Ask's mind couldn't help but revisit the memory of his first encounter with Mia. At that time, she was still a little girl, playing with blades casually, and dealing with her problems in the Thieves Guild perfunctorily.
Now she has become her own woman.
Alas, life is unpredictable.
Half an hour later, he took the subway to the mountains inside the city to visit more places he had passed by.
Constantinople was modeled after the city of Solomon. There were seven hills in the city area, covered with dense forests, making it a good place for citizens to escape the heat in the summer.
Arriving at a summer resort, Ask walked up to the front desk waiter, knocked on the counter, and asked in a low voice:
"Is there a masquerade?"
"Ball?" The waiter showed a surprised expression. "We are a leisure resort here, sir. We generally don't hold any events, but the guests may have their own parties. Or I can ask for you?"
"No, thank you." Ask laughed, waved and left.
This was the place where they had their first secret gathering of extraordinary people, and now it had been completely washed away by time. The new waiter seemed to be completely unaware of the secret gathering.
After leaving the villa and walking in the mountains for half an hour, Ask came to a river.
Ten years ago, I found Mier here...
Now I remembered that I had originally planned to recruit a sniper before taking her in, but since she started learning the law, her fighting style has gradually shifted towards summoning, assistance, and prophecy. She is indeed a transcendent of the fate system, even her own fate is so strange and difficult to discern.
However, the half-elf girl at that time, sitting by the river covered in blood, her weak, desperate and helpless appearance, as well as the action of swallowing the gun without hesitation after being defeated by him, are still fresh in Ask's mind.
You have grown up healthily, Mi'er.
very nice.
Another half an hour later, Ask left the mountains and arrived at a nearby bar.
After taking in Mi'er, they found her uncle who persecuted her, and Sidlifa helped her avenge him. Speaking of which, that girl was actually very reckless from the beginning, but she has now become the ruler of a country, which is terrible.
By the way, it seems that it was also here that I met Theodora for the first time.
"Would you like to come in for a drink?" Theodora's smiling voice sounded behind him.
"Hey, why are you here?" Ask turned around and looked at the beauty in front of him who had grown into a young lady, feeling a little surprised.
"It's too boring to deal with government affairs, so I came out for a walk." Theodora looked at the entrance of the tavern. "I remember that this was where I first met you, right?"
