Chapter 30 Picking up a Marshal

No one knew what Duke got from the old mage Norton, but soon, half of the mages in the academy knew that the old man Norton got a copy of the [High Elf Mage Apprentice Handbook] from the royal family of Quel'Thalas, and it was Kay Erthas* used by Sunstrider.

This gave everyone more ideas about Duke's origins.

Duke didn't care so much, he stayed in the guest house of the Magic Academy for one night. Miraculously, that night, he received a letter from Aurelia.

This is a very windrunner letter, for it is delivered by a lark. A piece of paper was tied to the little long leg, and it was written in the incomparably beautiful human lingua franca:

"Congratulations! His Excellency Master Duke Marcus."

Duke scratched his head, he couldn't figure it out, why this skylark could do the work of carrier pigeons, and would come to peck at his window in the middle of the night to wake him up.

"Could it be that this skylark has become a spirit?" Duke said to himself.

I don't know when and where Aurelia received the news from him. Anyway, this wonderful high elf ranger knew about it, and sent a kind blessing.

Looking at those delicate words, Duke felt inexplicably warm in his heart.

"It seems that I really have embraced Aurelia's golden thigh!" Having said that, Duke was also willing to establish a good relationship with Aurelia, so he quickly replied to the letter with the help of the system. .

"Thank you for your congratulations. I think we will still have a chance to meet in a few years." After writing, after reading the note three times to confirm that it was correct, Duke stuffed the note into Lark's lap. In the tube: "Go, go back to your master."

After doing this, Duke fell asleep soundly. He had no idea that Aurelia received his reply a few hours later, and there was a little accident.

In a vast and boundless forest, the first ray of morning light was shining on the ground through the thick leaves. Aurelia, who just woke up from the big tree, looked at the skylark with a strange expression.

"Twitter chirp chirp..." Skylark reported to Windrunner in a gentle voice.

"What? He said you've become a genius? Well... this kid is quite discerning."

"Twitter twitter—"

"What? That naughty brat still wants to hug my thigh?!" Alleria's eyes widened in disbelief. Who knew that Skylark would pat his 'beautiful legs' with his wings at this time!

Alleria couldn't help but look at her long legs that were so perfect that there was no trace of fat. The next moment, her pretty face blushed for no reason. Because she thought of the scene where the kid Duke cast his eyes on her peak several times.

He gritted his teeth bitterly: "That little pervert really never hides his thoughts! If you have the chance, you must teach him how to respect the elders!"

Inexplicably, at the same time, Duke sneezed.

"Ha Qiu—what the hell? Do I have a cold?" Duke didn't know yet, because he was talking to himself, and he was tricked by the girl Skylark.

After washing up, Duke put on a set of blue and white mage robes with gold trim, which was a small gift from the old mage Norton. According to old man Norton, if he went out on the streets of Stormwind City wearing that burlap shirt and the mage's badge, it would be a disgrace to all mages.

After getting dressed, looking at himself in the big mirror in the room, Duke suddenly felt that people really depend on clothes. Duke, who was originally a college student, put on a set of mage robes. Although he thought it was cumbersome, he looked like he had a strong book flavor, and he really had a bit of a refined temperament.

He already had a plan in his mind, and when he was about to implement it, Duke was stunned as soon as he opened the door.

In the reception room outside the door, he saw three Stormwind soldiers standing as straight as javelins.

The two behind are fully armed guards, and the heroic middle-aged knight in the middle is wearing a ceremonial dress with blue patterns on a white background and golden shoulders like sword tassels on his shoulders. Her brown hair was combed so neatly that not even an ant could climb it.

The knight lightly tapped his left chest with his right fist to salute: "Hello, Your Excellency Duke Marcus Earth Mage. I am Garcia Rodi, the commander of the third regiment of the Stormwind City Defense Army. I brought the Stormwind Greetings from City Lord Anduin Lothar."

Lothar looking for me?

Duke said politely, "Hello, I am Duke, what can Commander Lothar do for me?"

"It's like this, His Majesty the Great King Ryan and Commander Lothar are very happy to learn that you have become the second youngest official mage in the history of the Stormwind Kingdom and are willing to join the Kingdom's mage group. So let me bring Greetings from His Majesty King Ryan and Commander Lothar."

Duke nodded: "Well, thank them for their concern, thank them for me."

Garcia smiled and raised his hand, and all the attendants outside the reception room rushed in.

"This is the letter of appointment for the official mages of the mage group personally issued by His Majesty. Every autumn, there will be a welcoming ceremony hosted by your majesty for the members of the official mage group to join."

"This is the condolence money His Majesty gave you - 100 Arathor gold coins."

"I heard that Your Majesty Marcus is from the settlement of pioneers outside Elwynn Forest, so His Majesty hereby rewards you with a house. And equipped with two servants for you, if you are not satisfied with the servants, you can tell me , I am authorized to meet your needs to the greatest extent."

It is true that King Lane is a wise man, and he is very aware of the preciousness of talents. He definitely paid enough attention to a talented young mage who was born as a commoner.

Seeing the undisguised envy in Garcia's eyes, Duke immediately knew that even for a new official mage, this was a reward above the standard.

In the eyes of Duke, who is most short of money, this is tantamount to timely rain.

It is equivalent to the first pot of gold in promoting Duke's next plan.

"Thank you again for your reward, Your Majesty." Looking through the list that Garcia handed over, Duke suddenly found a stack of lists: "This is..."

Garcia quickly explained: "Official mages are important talents in the kingdom. Every mage should be adequately protected when he goes out. So these are the follower candidates carefully selected by His Excellency Lothar for you. Among them Everyone has absolute loyalty to the kingdom, and their combat skills are quite good. According to your rank, Your Excellency Marcus, you can choose up to two knight candidates as your exclusive followers."

Duke couldn't help laughing.

As a PK maniac in the game, he really never thought that fighting such a ferocious Faye would one day require guards.

Now that he has time-traveled, he is also doing as the Romans do.

Flipping through the pages, a name suddenly made Duke's heart beat violently.

"Reginard Windsor!"
