Chapter 738, Aurora's Teachings
It was already night when the letter was sent to the Duke's Castle in Lane. Due to the special magical channel, it only took an hour for the letter to be sent from the Imperial Academy of Wizards to Teresa's Wizard Tower.
Teresa was practicing, and the sorceress is still struggling to find a way to touch the sanctuary. During this period of time, the sorceress is reading the ancient books in the Krona palace in her private library on the top floor of the wizard tower. Since Ryan became king, Teresa gained the right to consult ancient books. Britannia has been established for thousands of years, and the historical inheritance has not been interrupted, and Korona has never fallen, so most of the ancient books are preserved intact, but To the disappointment of the sorceress, most of the records in the ancient books are the great deeds of various Holy Grail knights and many palace secrets. Among them, there are only a few records about magic, and most of them are also about the lake god prophet and In the cheat books left by Gao Jing, there is almost no record of how warlocks can break through. However, Gao Jing once recorded that there is a source of magic power on Lily Island in the Sharon Forest.
But that is the holy land of the fairies in the lake, where two Holy Grail Knights and a group of Holy Grail pilgrims stationed there, and Morgiana did not agree with Teresa going deep into Lily Island, so the sorceress had to find another way.
In the spacious and luxurious private library, when Teresa and Aurora were immersing themselves in research on how to manipulate an ultra-small ice-sealing forbidden spell to freeze a mouse into an ice sculpture without dying, Teresa's personal apprentice Emma trotted all the way and delivered the letter in front of the mother and daughter: "Elder Aurora, mentor, this is a letter from the Imperial Academy of Wizardry."
"Empire?" Seeing this, Teresa had to stop her spell experiments. Due to recent events, the sorceress seemed very upset. She read the letter and said impatiently: "I am conducting an important experiment. , since it is a letter to Mrs. Suria, why leave it to me? Send it directly to Jin City."
"Yes." Emma was a little aggrieved, and she was about to agree, but Aurora stopped the little apprentice: "No, put the letter down, you go to your business, Teresa and I will deliver the letter to the Duke in person to the castle."
"Yes." Only then was Emma relieved, the teenage witch apprentice knew that since the elder Aurora came here, Teresa's Ice Wizard Tower has become Aurora's master, and Tere Teresa is also more obedient to her mother. Since Aurora has spoken, Teresa usually will not object, so she puts down the letter and leaves quickly.
"Mother, what are you doing? When we are conducting this experiment to a critical point, why do you send such a letter? It's not for us." Teresa is wearing an ice crystal jasmine silver blue rippling fishtail dress today. , was wearing a white fox fur coat, her long black shimmering hair hung directly from her shoulders, and she was wearing high-heeled suede boots under the skirt, with silver magic silver hanging on the boots. Chain, she said with some complaints: "Send someone to deliver it soon?"
Aurora is wearing a deep black hazy hollow red rose lace wrap hip skirt today, with a white fox fur coat on her shoulders like Teresa. The difference from Teresa is that Aurora's skirt is shorter, The two long legs like jade pillars are wrapped in black translucent diamond shiny pantyhose, which are silky and close to the skin. On the beautiful feet of the stockings are wearing a pair of pointed-toed stiletto high-heeled shoes. The sanctuary witch is a little helpless. Looking at his daughter: "Teresa! An excellent wizard should never be locked in the wizard's tower all day to bury his head in research. Don't always feel that Ryan is holding so many resources to support us that we deserve it." , let’s do something more or less. It’s fine if we don’t go on this expedition. Since it’s a letter from the emperor, it’s not too much trouble for us to go there ourselves.
Why should we refuse such a good thing to be able to give a sense of presence to Queen Suria? "
"Then... okay." Teresa still listened to Aurora's words, the sorceress nodded, she stopped casting spells, and locked up the mouse. The mother and daughter picked up the letter, arranged a carriage, and prepared to go to Jin Town .
Naturally, the carriage that Aurora and Teresa rode in is also very luxurious. This luxury carriage painted in black, blue and gold is over 5 meters long and weighs more than 2,000 kilograms. It requires four horses with good stamina. There are a lot of ice-type magic runes branded on the body of the mountain horse, and it includes an independent air-conditioning system that can be used for both hot and cold. There is also a hurricane instrument on the roof of the carriage. When facing a strong enemy, the hurricane instrument can Use the crystal ball to arouse the astronomical instrument to absorb energy and launch magic. Both Teresa and Aurora can use the power of the hurricane instrument to directly launch a snowstorm covering the entire plain, a super hailstorm, and even the legendary extremely cold field.
This is a gift from Ryan. It was purchased from the Imperial College of Wizards and presented to Teresa and Aurora mother and daughter. It was priced at 10,000 gold kroner. Branding magic runes and modifying the magic society, Aurora also had people decorate and add furniture to make the carriage more comfortable and convenient for long-distance rides.
In the carriage, Teresa and Aurora sat opposite each other, the velvet curtains were raised, the wide road was full of pedestrians, and there were many large trucks full of goods, Teresa noticed ten Several crates were engraved with Lion's family coat of arms, which showed that these things were trophies. Wherever the truck passed, there were cheers from the civilians everywhere, and people sang the great victory of King Lane and the expeditionary army. , praising the pity and gift of the fairies in the lake.
The sorceress was also very proud of this, and she said with joy: "According to the latest news, Ryan and the others have conquered the Arsenal Castle! This shows that the first stage of the expedition has been completed! Ryan has plundered from the evil land one after another. Countless gold and silver treasures and various resources came, and it is said that even ordinary serf soldiers, as long as they did not die in battle, would at least grab a small bag of gold and silver!"
"Huh, that's true, this kid is very smart." Aurora sneered, and nodded in agreement with some reluctance to admit it: "His speed is faster than I imagined, and his actions are also faster than I imagined." Be resolute, do you think this knightly expedition is the same as before? They are simply crazier than the most vicious bandits, it is said that they burned, killed and looted all the way, they are even greener than greenskins, and beastmen than beastmen."
"That's green skin, mother." Teresa couldn't tolerate Aurora talking badly about Ryan, and she immediately retorted: "What kind of chivalry are you talking about with green skin? Mother, you must have made a mistake."
Aurora gave Teresa a white look. This daughter of hers is really fascinated by Ryan. She usually listens to her own words, but only when it comes to Ryan, Teresa must mainly protect Ryan. .
But Ryan is indeed excellent, in any sense and from any angle. Aurora can't find any more faults, except that this son-in-law is not very obedient and not easy to control. Wisdom and handsome appearance... even in some aspects, Aurora even complained in her heart why her daughter could have such a strong man, but she couldn't find a suitable and pleasing one.
The sanctuary witch sighed softly: "This is where Ryan is so powerful. His mind is very clear when he must show his kindness and virtue, and when he should show his bravery and wisdom. This time, Bafengshan In the Great Expedition, all the great nobles in the entire kingdom have been tied to Ryan's chariot, and the generous seizures and a lot of wealth not only satiate the great nobles, but also naturally benefit the commoners. , Whether it is the knight nobles or the serf class, they have been extremely convinced of Ryan, this is success...at least a temporary success, as long as he can bring substantial benefits."
Teresa could feel that there was something in Aurora's words, and the sorceress nodded tentatively. She said with some melancholy: "It's a pity that I'm not good at fighting in bad lands."
"So, daughter, we are already behind." Aurora nodded, she straightened her golden butterfly-patterned glasses, and said to Teresa seriously: "We did not participate in this great expedition, and we did not receive any spoils This is still the second, the main problem is that there is no contribution, it seems insignificant, the nobles and soldiers who participated in the expedition in the future will naturally regard us as outsiders, Ryan will also consider the interests of those people more, so you understand now, Why do I have to deliver this letter in person?"
"In order to make Mrs. Suria... aware of our existence and importance?" Teresa mused: "After all, we have now promised Ryan to establish MI7. Now that Ryan is not here, Sister Suria is the supreme leader , we must let her see that we are not just doing nothing, but also doing something."
"Correct answer!" Aurora nodded immediately, and the sanctuary witch said in a somewhat gratified and somewhat reproachful tone: "You finally understand, my daughter, if you really foolishly tell me that Suria is just the queen and the backyard. Master, there is no need for this between you, just send someone to deliver the letter, then I really can only tell you, I can't teach you anymore."
"...Sorry." Teresa knew that she was really slow in this regard, so she could only bow her head and admit her mistake: "I didn't think about it that much."
"I was also negligent. When you were young, I only paid attention to teaching you magic and ensuring your food, clothing, housing and transportation. I didn't guide you in other aspects." Aurora smiled self-deprecatingly, her mature and beautiful face was full of Reminiscence: "At that time I was eager to hit the sanctuary, and I didn't think too much about it. I always felt that you should be able to learn. By the time I noticed, your character had basically been finalized. If I hadn't forced you to arrange the adventure with Ryan, Maybe you didn't realize it all the time, but you fell into it in the end. I didn't want you to be a female courtier for Ryan when he already had a wife, but now Ryan has become the umbrella of our mother and daughter. Really Fate is fickle."
"Lian is my choice, and I have never regretted it." Teresa shook her head, and the sorceress was very serious about it.
"In short, the best, best solution is to have a child with him." Aurora finally brought up the old story again: "Only in this way can your position be consolidated."
"It's been a long time since I came back to this matter, mother!" Teresa blushed immediately when she heard this, and she became a little annoyed: "I have been with Ryan for several years, but I just don't, If you didn’t teach me the secret technique until you reached the Sanctuary, don’t force me all the time, okay?”
"But like this, what are you using to compete with Veronica?" Aurora is still working hard: "Now Veronica is Sanctuary, and you are still at the pinnacle of legend. If you can't have a child, we will be dragged away farther away."
"I don't want to discuss this anymore, mother, let's change the subject." Teresa also felt aggrieved, and the sorceress began to have some complaints and dissatisfaction in her heart. She felt that Aurora was asking too much of her, and she really Not good enough either.
Seeing her daughter like this, Aurora also sighed softly. The sanctuary witch thought wildly for a while, then shook her head and chatted about other topics.
After another period of time, the carriage entered the city of Jean, passed the guard inspection, and entered the Duke's Castle. The mother and daughter got out of the carriage, ready to hand over the emperor's letter.
Unexpectedly, what made sense was that Morgiana was also there. This witch of the lake god didn't have a good look at Aurora and Teresa. She said coldly: "What's the matter?"
"The Emperor of the Empire sent a letter, and it was handed over to Mrs. Suria."
"……come in."
