It was a bit of a pity that he didn't have a beautiful girl to accompany him.
Elvin could only find a place to enjoy the unique cuisine of this tourist city.
After asking a few locals nearby, he received a common recommendation: "Cod Dock."
Although it wasn't very famous among tourists, it was full of local characteristics. It was famous for its signature dish, "Fried Cod Steak with Red Wine and Lemon Sauce." It was one of the favorite restaurants of the locals with some status.
It was definitely not the same as those so-called "high-end restaurants" that specialized in ripping off foreigners!
Although the place wasn't easy to find.
But Elvin's dedication to good food still allowed him to walk through the door of "Cod Dock" twenty minutes later.
Ring ring ring!
"Welcome!"
Elvin was warmly greeted by an auntie with a thick waist and a thick neck. He sat in a corner of the restaurant that had a lot of seats.
He had just ordered three signature dishes, "Fried Cod Steak with Red Wine and Lemon Sauce," "Niske Cuttlefish Noodles," and "Salt Lake Grilled Fish."
But the moment he looked up, he was very surprised to see an unexpected "acquaintance."
"What a coincidence, Captain Solomon!"
It was a colonel wearing a navy uniform and a majestic captain's cloak. He didn't care at all about the pressure that his clothes might cause to others.
He sat not far from Elvin and enjoyed his sumptuous lunch.
Apart from the various delicacies on the table, the most eye-catching thing was the "Golden Book" with a very exaggerated and unforgettable appearance!
It was none other than the captain of the battleship "Royal Guard," Colonel Bertram Solomon, who belonged to the Kingdom of Tylo and was third in the "Navy New Star Project."
"Oh? So it's Captain Elvin. Please come and sit with us! "
When Elvin saw him, Bertram also noticed Elvin. He put down the knife and fork in his hand and warmly invited Elvin to have lunch with him.
A moment later, Elvin's lunch was also served. The two of them had similar military ranks and carried out the same mission after coming to Niske. There was nothing to be reserved about.
They chatted as they ate, and the atmosphere was relaxed.
"Captain Elvin, you have good taste. I didn't expect you to find me here.
The codfish used in this restaurant were all long-armed silver codfish caught in the nearby waters. They definitely weighed no less than 10 kilograms. Rub both sides with salt. Fry them until both sides were golden brown. Finally, add in the red wine produced by the Di Bo Manor.
The light aroma of fish paired with the sweet and sour broth is definitely a delicacy that you can't miss in Nissk! "
However …
Bertram, who was sitting opposite Elvin, was talking about the dishes here. His eyes were shining when he talked about the dishes here. He didn't look like a naval officer, but more like a veteran glutton.
It was rare to meet a fellow who loved good food.
Elvin tasted his three signature dishes while listening to him talk about the origins and cooking methods of the three dishes. It was very interesting.
He toasted Bertram with a glass of wine and thanked him for telling him the story behind each dish.
"I should have known when I saw your surname. Sir Solomon is actually a Magus."
Elvin glanced at the golden magic book on the table. He didn't avoid the topic because they were in a public place.
"Haha, it's not a secret in Tylo. But I didn't expect that the first place of our 'Rising Star of the Navy' is also a Magus. "
Bertram picked up his glass and gracefully clinked it with Elvin's. It was a simple action, but it showed the calmness and nobility in his bones.
Of course, it wasn't because Bertram had any special ability that allowed him to see through Elvin.
It was because he had just reached the limit of an apprentice today, and his power of the Will had surged.
Although he didn't notice it himself, others could see that his eyes were filled with electricity. If they didn't look directly at him, they might even find it a little dazzling.
This was the power of the Will that had always been hidden. It was rare for it to be exposed and noticed by others.
It wasn't difficult for Bertram, who was also a Magus, to guess the truth.
"Hahaha, the same to you. Although we can't be compared to Sir Solomon's family, in the supernatural world of Faletis, the existence of the 'Violet Eyes' cannot be ignored. "
While pointing out that he was an official Magus of the kingdom, Elvin's evaluation of the Solomon family was not exactly flattering.
In the supernatural world of the 'Tulip Alliance', the real power of the Sorcerers was not mentioned.
In terms of reputation, the 'Violet Eyes', which had not been developed for many years, was still quite a distance away from the famous Solomon family.
The 'Violet Eyes' was the product of the cooperation between the Alchemy School and the Faletis Royal Family after they returned to the Old Continent.
The Solomon family, on the other hand, had been a powerful existence since the founding of the Kingdom of Tylo as the royal family's advisor for thousands of years.
Even when the most powerful church on the continent was persecuting the Sorcerers, the Solomon family did not affect them.
It was not hard to imagine how powerful this family was.
Compared to them, the 'Tree of Life School', which had been suppressed by the church to the point that their inheritance was cut off, was as low as dregs!
After obtaining the authority of an official Magus, the books in the 'Shadow Library' had been further opened to Elvin.
Previously, he had stayed in New Haven for a month. How could Elvin, who had the 'Data Analyzing Vision', let go of such a good opportunity?
In one of the books that introduced the major forces in the supernatural world of the continent, there was a detailed record of the Solomon family.
The Solomon family was also known as the 'Solomon School'. It was a special school that was controlled by a family with the same bloodline. The witchcraft that was passed down could only be performed by people who had the bloodline of the Solomon family.
Because, in the legends … their ancestors had once made an eternal contract with the Demon God of the lower realm!
With various ritualistic witchcraft revolving around the [Summoning Spell] as the core, through analyzing the true name, they could enslave all kinds of powerful monsters in the lower realm. The ultimate knowledge of the school was the [Demon God Pillar Summoning].
There was even a rumor recorded in the book that could not be verified.
The ancestors of the Solomon family had actually reached the position that countless Magi dreamed of. They even reproduced the ultimate knowledge of the school and became the living mysterious source of the school!
Only this could ensure the prosperity of the Solomon family for nearly a thousand years and the abundance of talents.
Just like the Navy Captain in front of Elvin, although he was only 28 years old, he had already walked on the path of an official Magus for a long time.
In the Kingdom of Tyro.
The Solomon family with the title of Duke was deeply rooted. Bertram and the family members' identities as Magi were also open and aboveboard. They had even reached the extent that almost everyone in the upper class knew about them.
This was the confidence brought by strength!
"Captain Elvin, you're too polite! I was fortunate enough to follow my elders to visit Princeton of the 'Violet Eyes'. The Solomon family with few people can't compare to the abundance of talents in your school. "
Solomon smiled modestly. Even if Elvin knew that it was just a formality, he still felt like he was bathing in the spring breeze.
Both belonged to the big Magi forces in the Union. 'Violet Eyes' and 'Solomon' were natural allies. The relationship between the two rising stars in their respective forces was also a lot closer.
Let's end this topic.
"Captain Solomon is a soldier of our country. I wonder if Captain Thomas Gregory is here?"
As soon as Elvin arrived at Niske Water City, he was assigned by the garrison commander, Major General Coverdale, to participate in a six-day patrol mission.
He only met Bertram, who belonged to the Kingdom of Tyro, in a hurry, but he did not even see the other new Magus of the Ilya Navy.
This defensive mission was said to be the follow-up of the 'Magus of the Navy Project' on the surface, but in fact, the new Magus of the Navy who came to reinforce the 'Leiden Valley' were only the top three!
Although each country had a "Magus of the Navy" in order to take care of the reputation of each country during the evaluation, the Magus of the Navy was also different from the other Magus of the Navy.
Compared with the top three, whether it was in battle record or real strength, the Magus of the fourth to sixth place was really inferior.
Coupled with the influence of many factors.
For example, Elvin wanted to transport and help the Tyro Navy to install the new alchemy weapon 'Siren's Song'. Bertram Solomon was an officer of the Kingdom of Tyro and couldn't avoid it. Thomas Gregory, as an Ilya who had a blood feud with the Pirate King, had to bear the brunt.
This time, the "Magus of the Navy" under his command to carry out the reinforcement mission happened to be the top three.
Now the first and third place were having lunch together, and of course, the topic of the second place, Thomas Gregory, was indispensable.
But …
"Oh, I don't think you'd like to see him too much."
Dipped in red wine and lemon sauce, Bertram ate a large piece of cod, looked up at Elvin, and said these words with some playfulness.
"What's the matter, is there a problem with this Captain Thomas?"
Rolling up a circle of his Niske cuttlefish noodles with a fork, Elvin felt that Bertram's words had a hidden meaning.
"Hahaha, there's no problem. Everything else is fine, but I feel that this Mr. Thomas seems to be not convinced of your throne of first place. "
The young man chewed the crispy fish in his mouth and laughed a little gloatingly. The vulgar action that didn't conform to etiquette was done by Bertram with a different kind of free and easy, worthy of his thousand-year-old heritage.
"However, you don't have to worry about running into him for the time being.
I've seen him twice before, and I heard that he left his' Snow Lake 'at the military port.
He applied for the most 'difficult' mission from the garrison commander and has already brought his elite men ashore to surround the 'Octopus Ghost'.
Haha, probably the transcendent weapon 'Blood Lake' he chose in the end gave him great confidence. "
"Uh …"
For some reason, someone didn't like him. Although Elvin didn't care much about Elia's hometown, he felt that the cuttlefish noodles in his mouth suddenly didn't taste good.
After a long time, he finally said:
"Strictly speaking, among this batch of 'Navy Rising Stars', as an official wizard, you are the real strongest, right?"
"No, my hobby is food, wine, and enjoying life. The farther away from troublesome things, the better!"
He had an extremely strong family background and the powerful strength of an official wizard.
At Bertram Solomon's current level, he no longer needed to compromise with life and could live as much as he wanted to.
Even as a battleship captain, participating in the "Navy Rising Star Project" was probably just an entertainment program for him.
To be honest, Elvin was a little jealous, and his heart was really sour.
But life had to go on. Compared with this free and easy noble young master, he was congenitally deficient and needed to work harder!
After lunch.
Bertram, who didn't have a mission at the last minute, went to the grand theater to enjoy the opera.
He regretfully waved goodbye to Elvin, who had to go back to work, and made an appointment to meet again next time.
"Tsk tsk, Niske's vanilla ice cream is really delicious. It's authentic! "
Bertram watched Elvin return to the port. He was eating an ice cream cone with relish in his hand. He licked it gently and sighed in satisfaction.
For a glutton, nothing could comfort the soul more than delicious food.
Suddenly.
Slurp —
A big tongue stretched out from the air and suddenly wrapped around the ice cream cone in his hand, and instantly disappeared into the air again, leaving a pile of sticky saliva on his hand.
"Ah! Kashgar, you bastard!
This is the limited edition ice cream from 'Eggshell House', and it's the last one! "
Bertram stared blankly at his empty right hand and screamed at the air behind him in disbelief.
"Tsk tsk …"
The only response he got was a loud smacking sound.
Against the afternoon sun, behind Bertram, the figure of a giant canine with shoulders taller than an adult flashed by.
"Woof …"
"You're saying that Captain Elvin has a very strange smell of an alien? Hmm, interesting … "
Bertram temporarily forgot the unhappiness of his tamed demon stealing his food. He touched his chin and suddenly became interested in Elvin, who was also a "Navy Rising Star" wizard.
