---"contract".
This is a power that only a magician can wield.
Because when a magician performs magic, most of the time it requires chanting and time to prepare, so the contract was born.
At the beginning, the purpose of the contract was to allow magicians to recruit guards under certain conditions, so that someone could protect them and stop the enemy while they were preparing magic.
With the passage of time and the development of history, today's contracts have gradually evolved into various forms, and are used in various matters such as restrictions, agreements, or enslaving others.
As long as the rules set by the contract are effective, they must be implemented, otherwise the punishment mechanism will be triggered.
For example, slaves, such beings who have lost their human rights, are usually asked by slave merchants to ask magicians to form a slavery contract. Once the contract is successful, the slave must unconditionally obey the master's orders, otherwise the punishment mechanism will be triggered, whichever is more severe. They were tortured and in severe cases lost their lives.
The original owner's grandfather was the slave of a wealthy businessman in the countryside, and he was obedient to his master. Therefore, when he discovered that the original owner's natural magic power was extremely powerful, he prepared to sacrifice the original owner to his master without even thinking about it.
Fortunately, the original owner escaped. Otherwise, once a wealthy country businessman with little knowledge knew about his talent, the wealthy businessman would definitely use him in every possible way, and even make a servitude contract for him, taking him as a slave, and he would never be able to stand up again.
Compared with such a slavery contract without human rights, the servant contract is undoubtedly much more equal.
When a magician needs a guard or a squire to protect himself, they will often ask the other party to conclude a squire contract.
The conditions for the conclusion of this kind of contract are not as overbearing as a slavery contract and do not respect human rights. What is emphasized is equality. The magician who proposes the contract needs to agree to a wish of the contract partner before the contract can be concluded.
Under this contract, the magician who proposed the contract needs to do his best to fulfill the servant's wish, otherwise the contract will be invalid.
On the contrary, as long as the magician fulfills the servant's wish with all his heart, the contract will be fully effective. The servant must use all his strength to protect the master according to the contract, otherwise the punishment of the contract will be triggered.
In view of this, the squire contract is the most common contract method used by magicians who need to recruit guards.
Many powerful magicians will have many servants who have signed servant contracts with them to protect themselves and ensure their own safety.
Especially nobles, who are not short of money or power, are usually able to fulfill the wishes of many people and can receive many attendants.
As the Marquis of the Kingdom of Jinas, a strategic magician, and the chief court magician, Yuri naturally has many attendants under her command, and each of them is very powerful.
Marilyn was the first attendant Yuli accepted. She has followed Yuli for a long time. She is still serving Yuli nearby and is deeply trusted by Yuli.
And now, the two female knights Yuli asked Marilyn to bring are also the attendants who have concluded a contract with Yuli.
Li Ge took a moment to look at the other party.
Regardless of whether it is Ai Eun or Yin Eun, they all seem to be in their 20s, which can be considered a young age.
Among them, Ain seems to be older, with a slightly mature appearance, and sharp and determined eyes. His long purple hair is tied into a side ponytail hanging on his shoulders, and he has a big sword on his waist, giving him a more... Reliable feel.
Yin En looks younger than Ain, but she is also several years older than Li Ge, Yuli, and Marilyn. Although she is not as mature as Ain and has a slim figure, she has a serious face. Her long dark blue hair was braided and hung in front of her body, and she looked equally reliable.
The two of them wear different weapons, one wears a big sword, and the other wears a thin sword like a Western sword, but they are both very elegant and handsome, and they feel very reliable at first sight.
"Miss."
The two female knights, wearing less protective gear, saluted Yuri with great respect and respect.
"Ain, Yin En." Yuli nodded to the two attendants and said, "I have a task to give you."
The two female knights immediately stepped forward in unison.
"Please give your orders."
Ain lowered his head and waited for the order.
"As long as the lady needs it."
Yin En spoke seriously.
"Do you know this person?" Yuli pointed at Li Ge and said, "I need you to protect him and bring him back safely from the outside."
Hearing this, Ain and Yin En both looked at Li Ge.
Li Ge nodded towards the other party.
The two female knights also looked at each other, and then looked at Yuri.
"yes!"
Without asking the reason or making any objection, the two women accepted the task without hesitation.
Yuli then looked at Li Ge again and said: "Ain and Yin En have become my attendants very early. They are very powerful and can rank among the top five of all my attendants. With them protecting you, your trip should be much safer.”
"Okay." Li Ge could only accept Yuli's arrangement and said, "I will take them with me."
"That's good." Yuli smiled at first, and then said to Li Ge seriously: "Be careful in everything. If you encounter any danger that is difficult to deal with, retreat. Don't act recklessly. Don't be impulsive. You know. ?"
Yuli's instructions may sound a bit long-winded, but people can clearly feel the concern in them.
"Don't worry." Li Ge smiled calmly and said, "I know what's appropriate."
So, Li Ge turned and left Yuli's office.
"Go ahead."
Youli also urged Ain and Yin En, asking them to bow and leave after Li Ge.
After the footsteps of the three people in the group gradually faded away and were completely inaudible, Marilyn spoke.
"Is it okay, Miss?"
Marilyn asked in a low voice.
"Having Ain and Yin En here should ensure his safety." Yuli did not look at Marilyn, but still looked in the direction of the door and said: "What he said is right, we can't keep him here forever. "
"He is really a person who is not afraid of death." Marilyn's tone seemed very rude, and could even be said to be harsh: "I heard that he used to be an uneducated person who only went out to spend the whole day having fun and was surrounded by a group of small nobles. A country boy who was coaxed around by his children, but looking at his current behavior, I really can’t imagine him being like that before. "
"At the beginning, I was a little surprised." Youli smiled and said: "I originally thought he was pretending to be calm and deliberately pretending, but now it seems that this may be his true nature."
Speaking of this, Yuli couldn't help but think of the scene when she first met Li Ge.
At that time, Li Ge was already lying in a pool of blood, dying.
When Yuli arrived and scared away the attacker, she saw strong vigilance and hostility in Li Ge's eyes.
Thinking of Li Ge's eyes at that time, Yuli had to admit that the original reason why she and Li Ge developed their current relationship was because of this.
From those eyes, Yuli seemed to see an imprisoned beast, a tiger that had lost its freedom and vented its anger on everything around it.
It was at that moment that something resonated with Yuli.
That's why she brought Li Ge back.
That's why she became interested in Li Ge, went to see him in person, and gradually regarded him as an important friend.
"Friends...?"
Yuli, who grunted, had a cold look in her eyes.
"This is the first friend I have made. I can't let the rats in the stinking ditch hurt him..."
...
At the same time, outside the gate of the villa.
"Sorry to bother you two."
Li Ge looked at Ain and Yin who came out behind him and thanked them.
"No need." Ain said calmly, "This is the lady's order. We are just following the order."
"Yes." Yin En also said solemnly, "As long as it is the eldest lady's order, no matter what it is, we will try our best to complete it."
"Even so, I still want to thank you two." Li Ge said calmly: "When we go out this time, there may be some dangers. If something bad happens, you two don't need to worry about it. I."
After leaving such words, Li Ge turned around and left again without giving the two female knights a chance to reply.
"What does he mean?"
Yin En frowned.
"..."
Ain didn't speak, but looked at Li Ge's back thoughtfully.
Although the two of them had their own moods, they still followed Li Ge's footsteps without any hesitation.
Although they didn't know what Li Ge meant, what they should do would not change.
...
The capital of the Kingdom of Jinas is a large city called "Yeruf".
This city is very prosperous, and most of the buildings are large houses like chalk castles. At first glance, they look quite grand, giving people the real feeling of entering a magical kingdom in the Middle Ages.
People living in Yerov are basically rich or noble, and are more glamorous than cities in other places.
After all, it is the capital of the kingdom. Those who can live here permanently still have some capital.
Of course, the most numerous nobles here are all kinds of nobles.
Because the palace is located in the center of the city, nobles often come and go here. Some are court nobles who serve the king in the palace, some are territorial nobles who have territories outside, and even honorary nobles and local nobles often come and go here. It can be described as a mixed bag.
Under such circumstances, Li Ge left Franzel's residence and came to a square in Yerov.
In front of the fountain in this square, a group of noble children gathered there.
"Li Ge! This way!"
Someone shouted to Li Ge.
Li Ge immediately raised his eyes and looked over.
The next second, Li Ge saw the group of noble children in his memory.
They were well-dressed, and there were carriages parked next to them, and there were guards around them. The pomp when they gathered together was really not that small.
The leader saw Li Ge with sharp eyes and waved to him.
It was Akil Rein.
