Chapter 1 Good news from the imperial capital

A snow.

The bitter cold wind brought a light snow to the Moldavian collar, and it was the end of March 19833.

After the last snow in winter stopped, the temperature in the entire northern region began to warm up gradually. In some places where the snow melted faster, farmers had begun to wave their farm tools, breaking through the frozen solid soil, and plowing the fields. The melting ice water from the top of the snow-capped mountain also flowed into the river and passed through the still silver-clad coniferous forest.

Between the woods and the ice fields, everything began to revive. The white bears and squirrels who had been sleeping for a winter woke up from the tree holes at the same time. The winter wolves who had been running through the winter were also excitedly aware of the increase in prey. It was also at this time that countless caravans were setting sail from afar, heading to this land that had been blocked by snow and ice for a quarter.

The main city of Moldavia is also full of vitality due to the arrival of early spring. The deserted shops all winter began to load and unload goods, preparing for the following peak trade season, and the taverns gradually became popular. However, the topic we talked about was not the usual neighborhood home, but information about Winter Fort College.

Those who have children and nephews at home successfully enrolled are naturally the envy of everyone. As the first regular vocational school in the North, being able to enroll is simply the best cost of boasting. Many people are showing off their children's excellence in open and secretly. Among this group of people, the most conspicuous is the old man who has gray hair but has a glass of white hair that is as big as a half-person head and heroically drinks all the spirits in one gulp.

This scene really scared a middle-aged man who had just entered the tavern, but with the explanation of people around him, he quickly learned that the grandchildren of the old man named Edward successfully entered the Winter Castle Academy and were highly valued by all the mentors. The booze just now was encouraged by everyone to celebrate.

"It seems that the people of the North are only so enthusiastic when drinking."

He found a corner and ordered a simple drink and food. The middle-aged man looked at the hot atmosphere in the tavern and smiled helplessly. Then he straightened his uniform with red edges and black background. On the chest of this uniform, there was a golden balance of not conspicuous, half of which was a sword and half a grain ear.

The examiner, Monster, came to Moldavia again after a year.

This time, just like last time, he also had a mission, but he was not as anxious as last time for the Black Tide. In addition, one of the tasks this time was to observe the situation in the main city, so he had plenty of time to stroll around the city.

After lunch, he began to walk aimlessly in the main city of Moldavia.

Walking along Bluestone Avenue, he saw many originally closed shop doors opened by the shop owners, and began to sort out before spring. Although the commercial street is still deserted compared to the peak season, it also has a little bustling shadow. There are many pedestrians passing by on the roadside, as if they are shopping for goods, and there are many wearing various monster leather armors. Just by the momentum of the battlefield, you can tell that the figures of experienced adventurers and mercenaries who are waiting for the snow to melt and are preparing to set off.

As he got closer and closer to the city center, some guards wearing standard silver armor or monster leather armor and with the Radcliffe family emblem on their chests became common, and near St. Lauren Cathedral, there were also many church knights patrolling guards in white blouses.

The whole city was surrounded by such a vibrant atmosphere. It seemed that it suppressed the whole winter and made everyone feel a little overly energetic. This can also be seen from the pace of the guards of the patrol city. Their expressions and spirits seemed to be waiting for any fools who were blind to jump out so that they could vent their extra strength.

Monster walked silently all the way. He observed the surrounding scenes with interest, the clean and tidy streets and the accordion melody from the tavern not far away. It has to be said that although the main city of Moldavia cannot be compared with the big cities in the middle of the empire, it is already quite well-known in the second-tier main city. Moreover, the expressions of the pedestrians are full of hope and vitality, and there is no numbness and dullness. It is enough to prove that the lords here are indeed good and very competent.

Bypassing the Cathedral and the Square of St. Lauren, he came to the street where the Lord's Mansion was.

And the moment he saw the Lord's Mansion, he couldn't help but stop.

"I was really scared... it was so sudden."

Taking a deep breath to relieve the stiff muscles, Monster came to his senses, then shook his head and murmured to himself. He stared at the two giant dragon heads hanging on the side of the castle, hanging in front of him, and felt helpless: "Showing is not like this. The two giant dragon heads are placed outside like this. When the dragon power is shocked, I was shocked."

Turning his head and looking at the other people coming and going, these residents seemed to have been accustomed to the residual pressure on the two giant dragon heads, and they were no wonder of the hideous face. Seeing this scene, the middle-aged censor felt enlightened: "Is this the purpose of Qiao Xiuya? Let his people gradually get used to the pressure of the dragon clan, and then if they encounter any attack in the future, they will not even have the strength to escape?"

And it is not impossible to defeat such a message through the giant dragon's head. Look, your heads are hanging there, and there is someone behind you, so don't be afraid of them, such as the street-slaughter.

Some strange auditory hallucinations seemed to be heard in his ears. Monster shook his head vigorously, threw the words away from his mind, and then walked slowly towards the lord's mansion.

At this time, a silver-haired girl also happened to walk out from the corner of the street and walked towards the gate of the lord's mansion.

Since Hei awakened the blood of the Black Dragon and swam around the lake under the Snow Mountain in Nissie all day long, Ying, who lacked a task, has become much easier. After Gioshe's forced cultural course education every day, it was her free time to move.

In this regard, the warrior was unexpectedly generous. He didn't mind Ying wandering around every day, and even gave her some pocket money to buy some things she wanted to buy. However, Ying actually didn't need these. If she wanted to change her clothes, she just needed to use her magic power to condense it a little, so the girl basically used the money to buy some special food and brought it back to Qiao Xiuya, so that both the master and the servant would like to do it.

Just as Ying was about to enter the lord's mansion, she saw a familiar figure from the corner of her eyes.

The man wearing a red background and a black edge with a balance emblem on his chest was standing on the other side of the street. This familiar scene made the girl blink subconsciously, and the memory core turned rapidly, and she immediately recalled who the other party was.

Reviewer Monster.

The master's acquaintance.

This time I came here, I guess I had something to look for my master, right? Ying nodded silently and couldn't help but like her reaction.

"Hello, Mr. Monster."

He raised his hand and waved at the other party. The silver-haired girl remembered the etiquette she learned in the cultural class, then coughed and said in a gentle voice: "Is there still a task here this time?"

Monster, who was suddenly greeted by someone, naturally discovered the girl in front of him. His memory was enough to recall the other party's name, so the examiner also replied readily: "Long time no see, Miss Ying, you are more beautiful than the last time you met..."

It is naturally a good thing to meet an acquaintance without having to make an appointment at the city hall or the guards of the lord's mansion. However... I haven't seen each other for a year, and I don't talk about my figure, why are I not tall? I heard that the butler maids in the Radcliffe family are all immortal species. I originally thought it was a rumor, but now it seems that it is not the truth.

"If you want to see your master, let me inform you first."

Ying naturally didn't know what the other party was thinking, otherwise she wouldn't have such a good tone. The girl made an invitation gesture and said briskly: "The master is probably dealing with government affairs. If it is not an urgent matter, she might have to wait a little longer."

"It's okay, I'm here to have good news to tell your master."

Following the gesture, Monster naturally approached the gate of the lord's mansion. The guards at the door knew that the other party was an acquaintance of his lord, so they roughly reviewed the other party's clothes, asked to confiscate the sword, and then let it go.
