What the Cullen Kingdom needed now was other things. Needless to say, resources and population. The 'spoils of war' clause was the main reason why Rody was tempted.
From Houdini and Evelyn, he knew that there were many rich countries and lands in the northern part of the Lachman Kingdom. As a country that overthrew religious countries and established a parliament system of mages, they had always adopted the policy of supporting small countries to fight against Eiskar. They did not defeat these countries one by one. Therefore, if Rody's army was strong enough, the spoils of war would definitely be abundant.
This agreement went back and forth for many days, and today, Roddy finally signed it. After it was over, Roddy sent the Mislan ambassador off. Then, he looked at the dark night and walked to the top floor of the Magic Tower.
In the bedroom, the pale Sally was talking to Nora. When she heard Roddy's footsteps, she stood up and said, "Is it over?"
"Yes, it's over."
"Good."
Sally didn't ask any further questions. At this point, she had already put on a magic cloak with gorgeous patterns. She was no longer wearing a long robe that represented imperial power. Instead, she was wearing a thick coat made of fur and leather. Her leather pants and boots were a little bulky, and she appeared to have put on a lot of weight.
Kardashian and Akasha also walked into the room. Natha, who was fully armed, followed behind them and closed the door. She stood still like a bodyguard.
All the maids were asked to leave the floor. The Grand Arcanist, Edith, appeared in the room.
Roddy was wearing a short outfit, and he began to put on the equipment that was already placed here. Akasha stepped forward to help. Kardashian took the exquisite quiver and carefully checked the space magic circle on it.
Sally held the mink fur hat in her hands and smiled bitterly. "It's really hot to wear these in the house."
"It's very cold outside. We will probably be flying in the sky for a long time, so it's important to keep warm."
Roddy carried the bow and gently hugged Kardashian. "Just wait for us to come back."
He then signaled to Edith. She nodded and raised her hand. The window of the hall opened, and a magic staircase led directly to the top floor of the Magic Tower.
Roddy gently helped Sally up the stairs. Akasha helped her carry the Viper's Kiss and followed behind. When they reached the top of the tower, the purple shadow dragon lowered its body and let the group climb up the soft ladder beside it to the cabin on its back.
The so-called passenger cabin was two streamlined wooden cabins that were fixed on both sides of the shadow dragon's spine. The front was made of glass, allowing one to see the surrounding scenery. There were soft chairs for sitting comfortably in the cabin, and all kinds of items that were to be brought to Lachman had already been installed.
This idea was something that even Edith admired, but to Kardashian, it was just a product that she copied from the combat cabin on Earth.
The cold wind blew and made Sally's nose a little red. She put on the funny-looking mink fur hat, gritted her teeth and climbed up the dragon's back. She sat in the cabin on the left side. Akasha and Natha went to the other side. Roddy was the last to climb up. After putting away the soft ladder, he gestured to Natha on the other side.
The latter closed the cabin door and opened the sealing magic circle with the crystal inserted in it. Roddy looked back at Kardashian, and the two looked at each other tacitly for a moment. They did not say anything.
Edith raised her hand and released a Silence Node. She then waved at Roddy, who nodded and closed the cabin door.
The dragon's wings opened to both sides in the next moment, and Edith released a wind spell to provide it with enough lift. The giant dragon took a few steps and leaped towards the southern sky. Its body did not fall, and it quickly disappeared into the night …
On the other side of the boundless sea, the night of Rahman was bustling with excitement because of the festive atmosphere.
Mages pursued the truth and did not worship any gods. But not everyone could become a mage, so most people still maintained most of the customs like before. For example, during the first half of the new year, people in the city spent their time in carnival and all kinds of parties.
The new year in Hollier was not as lively. After all, the higher latitude of Efta was too cold in winter, but Duriel was like spring all year round, and the temperature was pleasant all year round. Even at night, the streets of Balafar in the city were still brightly lit.
The "Noggenfogger Auction House" was holding a new round of auctions. Cheers and applause could be heard on the streets outside. Not far away was the "Castec Fireplace" Hotel. The outdoor tables on the second floor were full, and the waiters were busy running back and forth.
Merlinsera's figure was a little special here. She was the only one eating alone in the entire restaurant.
She did not wear a traditional robe, but a dark red coat and loose trousers. The chain of her pocket watch was faintly discernible, and the pocket was bulging.
This was Merlinsera's daily attire. She did not care what others thought of her. She finished her specialty sausage and cheese yams, and drank juice while reading a stack of papers and letters in her hands.
After transforming from a giant dragon to a mortal, it was difficult for Merlinsera to integrate into human society for a long period of time. But she understood that she had to learn to adapt, so after a long time of hard work, she formed her own social circle. Of course, this "social circle" was purely academic, and those who were qualified to exchange letters with her were the top mages in Rahman.
Merlinsera's life basically consisted of running between the dormitory and the academy. Other than that, she would come to the magic tool shop in the Balafar district to buy things herself and eat here.
It was not because the food in this restaurant was delicious, but because she had eaten here with a certain someone before.
Merlinsera's appearance was outstanding. Even though her clothes were strange, it could not hide her powerful aura. However, the people who could eat in this restaurant were not nobodies. Many people glanced over, but they quickly looked away.
They all knew that this was a person they could not afford to offend.
Last year, there was an unappreciative magus who used his status as a councilor to harass Merinsera when she was submitting her thesis. That day, the magus was sent to the emergency room of Ballenner Academy.
The mage felt very humiliated after losing to an ordinary Wizard. After he recovered from his injuries, he said that he would teach Merlinsera a lesson.
However, after Frost Dragon Alva came here once, this councilor withdrew from the council and disappeared without a trace.
Because of this, Merlinsera, who had already shone in the "Crown of Late Autumn", became a powerful existence with a fierce reputation.
