Demon Realm Border Fortress.
The snowstorm that shrouded the plains had gradually stopped. The sunlight that appeared on the plains meant that the cruel war was about to begin.
The gate of the border fortress had been opened. Nogus brought his two generals to the outside of the city wall. In front of them was a girl carrying a large amount of luggage.
"Food, clothes, camp tents, bonfire … I think I'm missing a flint."
The girl placed the backpack that was as tall as a person in front of her. She counted the things inside and finally remembered what she had forgotten to bring.
Nogus gestured to General Voss beside him. The Sinful Demon General threw a primordial crystal that had been injected with Sinful Fire to the girl.
"This is just right as a flint." The girl stuffed the primordial crystal into her backpack.
"Agata, don't forget your duty."
Nogus maintained his cold expression and pointed to her arm.
"Spy? Looks like this is the only way. "
Agata pulled up her sleeve and looked at the inscription that looked like a snake.
This was a type of voodoo magic. If no spellcaster could remove it within two months, she would face a cardiac arrest.
"You won't have the chance to betray me," Nogus said with a cold gaze.
"I know, I know."
Agata acted as if she didn't hear Nogus' threat. She packed her backpack and suddenly walked in front of Nogus. She looked up at him.
"Here."
Agata threw a box to Nogus. Nogus subconsciously reached out to catch the wooden box. He opened it and saw a bouquet of flowers with colorful petals.
These petals were pieced together and were a type of decoration.
"My mother gave it to me. I also made some for Voss and Feasley." Agata took out another 20 gift boxes and tossed them to General Voss beside Noggs like Santa Claus giving out presents.
Before the two generals could open the gift boxes, Agata carried the heavy backpack on her back.
"It should be fine to go home for two months. I'll be going now!"
Agata waved at them, then carried her backpack and walked towards the distant plain.
Noggs didn't look at the girl again. He threw the gift box to General Voss and walked into the Fortress.
"Your Highness, what should we do with these things?" General Voss asked with a pile of gifts in his hand.
"Do whatever you want."
With that, Nogus walked into the fortress.
… …
Late at night in Noland, dinner time in the Hearthstone Tavern.
"When I was in the Crystal Palace yesterday, my teacher went to look for that Undead Duke." Hiri poked at the roasted meat in front of her with her fork and suddenly said to Josiah, "The purple-clothed one seems to have seen through the illusion of the Grand Duke."
"Cough, cough …"
When Hiri was talking about this matter, Josiah happened to be drinking hot milk, and he was directly choked.
"The purple-robed man saw through the Holy Spirit's aura concealment? That's right … so what happened? " Josiah immediately asked Hiri. Usually, Hiri would use this opportunity to complain, but her face was replaced with a worried expression.
"There was no conflict. My teacher just wants to know how to extend her life," Hiri said softly. "She doesn't have much time left."
Josiah rarely saw such a lonely expression on Hiri's face.
Although Hiri often caused trouble for the purple-clothed one and slacked off during class, Josiah could guarantee that this girl was definitely studying illusions seriously.
"Is that so … Every life has a limit to its lifespan." Josiah put down the cutlery in his hand and stared at Hiri. "Hiri, I'm thinking about something."
"What is it?"
"Marriage."
This time, it was Hiri's turn to choke. The worst thing was that she choked with a large piece of meat in her mouth.
Hiri kept patting her chest. Josiah gave her a glass of water and barely managed to swallow the food in her throat.
"Why … Why did you suddenly mention this?" Hiri seemed to be unprepared.
"I discussed this with my sister yesterday, and she seems to support it." Josiah paused and said, "Even if she doesn't support it, I intend to do it."
"Wait … wait a minute!" Hiri covered her forehead with her hand as if she was sorting out her thoughts. "Can I have a glass of wine?"
Josiah found a bottle of red wine from the glass cabinet in his study and placed it on Hiri's table.
She opened the cork and did not pour it into the glass. Instead, she directly drank part of the wine.
At this moment, her face turned crimson. It was unknown whether it was because of her shyness or the wine.
"I've thought about this before. I used to fantasize about this when I was sleeping, wearing a wedding dress and riding on a frost wolf at the wedding …"
"Wait … Shouldn't it be a horse under normal circumstances?"
"My mother rode a wolf." Hiri seemed to be immersed in the past. Then, she smiled at Josiah. "I've been looking forward to this day, but can I wait for a while? The Sage Trial is about to begin, and I want to participate as a purple-clothed apprentice. "
"I didn't say it would start tomorrow. In fact, this plan is for the end of the year." Josiah roughly understood the reason for Hiri's hesitation.
"Then there's no problem!" Hiri poured the wine in her hand into the glass and said, "The Sage Trial in 40 days is my final exam."
"Exam? Competition?"
Josiah picked up the cutlery again and began eating dinner.
"The Holy Spirit that we played in the Crystal Palace yesterday …"
"When will the official version be released?" Hiri did not wait for Josiah to finish his sentence. Her eyes had already revealed her anticipation for the game.
"Hiri, didn't you say that you wanted to study hard?" Josiah thought that Hiri's state of being 'prepared' could still be maintained for a while.
"I … I asked if the open beta can be called playing." Hiri's cheeks flushed, probably because she drank too much red wine.
"Maybe within half a month. The first version of the hero will be set at 15. The map and game mechanics are almost done."
With the magic net and the white cat's support, Josiah's programming speed could be described as cheating.
"15 is a little too little. Can I help design a hero?" Hiri asked, raising her hand.
