My Magic Age

I am a little dissatisfied and worried about the actions of the Minotaur Luka and Justus.

Although my original intention of leaving them in the Yello plane was to find out some real information about the situation around Tanton City in the Yello plane, I do not advocate that they take risks.

Luka has always been an honest and decent Minotaur. Although he also has a desire to travel the entire Roland Continent, he has never shown it. He quietly stays in the rental house and waits for me to graduate from the Royal Magic Academy, and then we can fulfill our dream of traveling the entire Roland Continent together.

However, since Justus appeared, the adventurous spirit of the Tauren warriors was somehow instigated by this descendant of the siren to take such adventurous actions one after another. The expedition to Xinliu Valley half a month ago was an expedition without prior notice to me. This time, we even entered the Black Forest outside Tanton City. Now the Black Forest outside Tanton City is no different from the territory of the Nibru Spiders. Although their spider camp is a distance away from here, once the spider warriors come to kill, any adventure group will have nowhere to escape in the Black Forest, because they can't run faster than the spider warriors with eight long legs.

Due to the tight schedule, we couldn't stay in the Yello plane for too long, so we hurried back to Xinliu Valley.

The underground warehouse square of Xinliu Valley is filled with various supplies, the most important of which are 500 sets of Nakma people's black iron armor and the batch of bed crossbows without bed cart bases. The dwarf Bernd is leading a group of goblin slaves to dig a new storage room. The new storage room is mainly to store these black iron armor and bed crossbows. Before the storage room is built, these supplies can only be placed here.

An old dwarf and a dozen female dwarves are transforming the bed crossbows one by one in the square, transforming these bed crossbows into hand crossbows suitable for the barbarian slaves to carry and hold according to their body shapes. In addition to customizing a large number of handles and grips, the mechanism of the bed crossbow needs to be modified. It needs to be changed to the kind that as long as the barbarian slaves move their fingers, the crossbows in the bed crossbow arrow slot can be smoothly shot out.

The dwarves are proficient in making crossbows and firearms, which is mainly related to their poor use of bows and arrows. Due to the limitations of height and arm span, the dwarves cannot use some longbows, so the stubborn dwarves focus their energy on the research of crossbows and firearms. Facts have proved that they are still very good at making crossbows.

The other side of the warehouse square is full of grain. This time, the grain reserves are slightly more, mainly because several grain-producing provinces in the Green Empire have a bumper harvest this year. Whole ships of grain are transported from the south to the imperial capital, which also causes the price of wheat flour to remain below the average price of previous years. Therefore, Alia purchased several large quantities of wheat flour and grain in the airport town. These grains not only filled all the warehouses for storing grain, but also occupied a corner of the underground warehouse square.

At the same time, stones from the orc village in Xinliu Valley are still continuously transported to the underground warehouse by mine carts. Seven hundred Yelo natives are now processing the stones transported from the ground of Xinliu Valley every day. They carry the stones to a cave farther away. Anyway, no matter where these stones are placed, no one will steal them.

I unexpectedly saw the old orc Zewang who came to transport food in the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley. I haven't seen this old orc for a while. It's a rare opportunity to chat with him, so I didn't rush back to the imperial capital.

Now the orc village is full of female half-orc slaves bought from the slave market. These female half-orc slaves are mountain people in the mountainous area at the junction of the Green Empire and the Orc Tribe. It is very common for humans and orcs to intermarry over there, so these female half-orcs quickly adapted to life in the orc village, and compared with the cunning Green Empire people, they are more willing to marry an orc warrior.

So many half-orc slave girls brought vitality to the orc village, and solved the problem that old orc Zewang was most worried about at once, the continuation of the new life of the orc village, because among the orcs who followed me from El City to Xinliu Valley, female orcs accounted for only a small number. With these half-orc slave girls and the orc warriors in the village forming new families, the orc village will soon usher in a population explosion, which is also what old orc Zewang is most looking forward to.

We talked about the development of the orc village, the current living conditions of the barbarian slaves in the quarry, the products in the mountains and forests of Xinliu Valley, and the magic herb garden in the round valley. We also talked about Deborah, Luka and Justus.

Old orc Zewang told me that he met Deborah, Luka and Justus in the orc village a few days ago, so I told him about Luka, the trip to Tanton City, and some changes in Luka.

Seeing that I looked unhappy, the old orc Zewang came up to me, stretched out his old hand and put it on my shoulder, and asked me: "What kind of person do you hope Luka can become in the future?"

I thought about it and said: "I hope he can become a powerful warrior in the Tauren tribe. Of course, this is also Luka's dream."

His eyes looked a little wise. I felt that some changes had taken place in the old orc Zewang. I remember that when I first saw him, his eyes were turbid, but now his eyes are not only bright, but also reveal a hint of understanding of life.

Then he asked me: "You don't want to be a stumbling block on his way to realize his dream, right?"

"How can I be a stumbling block for him? Of course I can't be a stumbling block for him!" I smiled and said.

He laughed dumbly, shook his head and said to me: "So, I agree with Justus's approach. As a tauren warrior, he needs some cultivation paths of his own. He can't rely on you all the way on his journey of life to move forward, otherwise he will stop and stand still. He should have some life of his own, and you - Jijia, as Luka's most trusted friend and partner, should also give him enough freedom... courage and encouragement."

I looked at the old orc Zewang and didn't say a word for a long time.

...

A new snow did not leave any traces in the imperial capital. Looking through the transparent glass window at the trees on both sides of the street, the leaves left on the branches were few and far between overnight. The branches swayed gently in the cold wind, and the few remaining leaves on them were like flags shouting for the defeated side on the battlefield.

I didn't expect Su to arrange for us to meet in a bakery, perhaps because there is a lemon tree at the door of the bakery, under which there is a simple wooden round table and a few randomly placed chairs. She is wearing a plaid tweed coat on her upper body and a slightly short pleated skirt on her lower body, which exposes at least half of her thighs.

It just snowed, and the temperature in the imperial capital is not very high. It should be said that when the wind blows, you can still feel the chill mixed in it. In such cold weather, you can see beautiful girls wearing short skirts on the street. I have to say that it really adds a lot of scenery to this slightly bleak street.

In fact, when I first met Su, I wanted to ask her if she would feel cold wearing such a short skirt in this weather, but then I remembered that her legs are prosthetic limbs, and she should not feel any cold at all. Unconsciously, I almost forgot about Su's legs... Watching her walk and running on the street will only make pedestrians on the street think: That beautiful girl's long legs are so beautiful!

There was a scroll of fire gathering in the simple stove next to the round table, and a copper teapot was placed on the stove. Light blue flames came out of the stove, and a wisp of white steam came out of the teapot.

Su put a few slices of fresh lemon into the glass in front of me and Ying Li, then added a little honey and poured the boiling water in the teapot. Suddenly, a fragrance of lemon and the sweetness of honey spread in the air.

There was a basket of bread on the table, round, oval, long, and sliced ​​in various styles. The plate next to it was filled with golden apple jam, and there was a bottle of golden apple wine on the table. This was almost an El City-style breakfast. Although it was no longer morning, the strong nostalgia immediately filled my heart.

"Ji Jia doesn't eat applesauce. He likes to put roast meat and sausage in his bread slices, or drink a bowl of hot broth directly. If there is none of these, he would rather eat bread slices without anything." Just as Ying Li was spreading a thick layer of golden applesauce on my black bread slices, Su leaned on the wooden chair and said to her calmly, not giving the imperial princess any face at all.

Ying Li stuck out her tongue apologetically and whispered, "Sorry, I don't know this."

"Please, it has been more than two months since the wedding..." Su couldn't help but complain to Ying Li again.

Ying Li was wearing a simple dedication magic suit. This black and white striped tight-fitting clothes made her look like an ordinary young female magician. The owner of the bakery might not have thought that the person who just walked out of the store with a basket of bread would be a princess of the Angelbould royal family. She didn't look like a princess at all.

In response to Su's doubts, Ying Li also argued vigorously: "But we don't live together. We rarely have breakfast together. I have breakfast at home, and he has breakfast in the canteen of the magic academy. We will not sit in front of a bakery on the street to enjoy such a romantic 'breakfast' on an early winter afternoon."

Su waved his hand and said, "Sorry, I was busy treating a constructed knight last night until this morning. I just woke up and rushed to see you. I heard that you are renovating your house recently. How is the progress?"

In fact, the relationship between Su and Ying Li is much better than I thought.

In the past few years in the imperial capital, Ying Li has been silently taking care of Su. When Su first arrived at Campbell Sanatorium, he was often instructed and bullied by some medical assistants. At this time, Ying Li often brought Helena and Becky to the sanatorium to stand up for Su. Now Su has become the most influential person in Campbell Sanatorium besides Sora scholars.

"I originally wanted to expand the backyard swimming pool, but it snowed!" Ying Li seemed a little regretful, sighed slightly, and said to Su.

"..."

I sat speechlessly beside him. I couldn't express any objection at this time. In fact, I think the backyard swimming pool is well built.

Helena and Becky stood in front of the bakery window, looking at the exquisite bread inside. Although they had no intention of eating, it did not prevent them from appreciating it. The bread and pastries in the basket looked quite appetizing.

On such a sunny afternoon, although the wind was a bit chilly, it was quite fun to chat with friends on the street.

The last time I saw Su was at Duke Jingyue's manor, so Su and I also chatted a bit about what happened after I was knocked unconscious by Princess Sha. In his words, Su expressed his strong dissatisfaction with the Aili family. , although I said that Duke Jingyue and Princess Sha had officially apologized to me, and even showed me Xiatun Aili's magic notes, which showed that Duke Jingyue was still very sincere, but it could not change Su. view.

After hearing Su talk about it, I realized that I had been injured a few days ago.

Ying Li complained that I didn't tell her about it, while listening to Su telling the whole story of that night. Because it was Su who told it, the story was full of Su's personal subjective consciousness. Under Su's influence, Ying Li also believed that When I was treating illnesses and rescuing people, Princess Sha actually used offensive magic on me. This was very rude.

In this way, we talked about Duke Jingyue and her injuries.

Although I was the one who dispelled the dark shadow energy from her body, I fainted afterwards. I have no idea how they dealt with such serious injuries on Duke Jingyue. She was so seriously injured...

"The clavicle of the shoulder was severed and the entire chest was opened. Although it can be healed, it will be impossible to ride a war horse on the battlefield in the future. The most important thing is that she was injured to that point... It will be difficult to have children in the future. " Su took the slice of bread with jam from Ying Li's hand and ate it with relish while telling Ying Li about Duke Jingyue's injury.

"Ah!" Hearing Su say this, Ying Li was surprised and completely lost his appetite.

Su seemed to have no inhibitions. As she spoke, she licked the golden applesauce on the slice of bread with her tongue.

Then I heard Su say: "It is estimated that Princess Sha will inherit the position of Grand Duke Sloit in the future, but I heard that Princess Sha doesn't seem to be interested in men. I saw her with the beautiful female water magician with my own eyes. The look is very ambiguous. If you put it this way, it will be a big problem for the Aili family to find a successor! "

Unexpectedly, the taciturn Su also had such a gossipy side.

Ying Li's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief, and he said to Su, "You mean her and Teacher Sophie?"

"Well, that's right!"
