No one knew what Duque had gotten from Old Mage Norton, but soon, half of the mages in the academy knew that Old Man Norton had gotten a [High Elven Mage Apprentice Handbook] from the Royal Family of Cuel Salas, and that it had been used by Kael 'thas Sunstrider.
This gave everyone more ideas about Duque's background.
Duque did not care so much. He stayed in the guesthouse of the Magic Academy for the night. Miraculously, on that night, he received a letter from Aurelia.
This was a very Windrunner letter, because the letter was sent by a skylark. There was a note tied to its long leg, and on it was written in the common human language.
"Congratulations! Your Excellency Mage Duke Marcus. "
Duque scratched his head. He could not understand why this skylark could do the work of a carrier pigeon, and would come to his window in the middle of the night to wake him up.
"Could this skylark have become a spirit?" Duque muttered to himself.
He did not know when or where Aurelia had received his message, but this strange High Elven Ranger knew about it and even sent a kind blessing.
Looking at the line of delicate words, Duque felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.
"It seems that I have really clung to the golden thigh of Aurelia!" That being said, Duque was also happy to have a good relationship with Aurelia, so he quickly replied with the help of the system.
"Thank you for your congratulations. I think we will still have a chance to meet in a few years." After writing, he read the note three times to make sure that there was no mistake. Duque stuffed the note into the small tube on the skylark's leg. "Go, go back to your master."
After doing this, Duque fell asleep soundly. He had no idea that a few hours later, Aurelia had received his reply, and there had been a small accident.
In a vast and boundless forest, the first ray of light was shining through the dense leaves. Aurelia, who had just woken up from the tree, looked at the skylark with a strange expression.
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp …" Skylark reported to Windrunner in a melodious voice.
"What? He said you became a spirit? Well … this kid has quite a good eye. "
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp —"
"What? That perverted rascal wants to hug my thigh?! "Aurelia's eyes widened in disbelief. Who knew that Skylark would use her wings to pat her 'beautiful legs'!
Aurelia couldn't help but look at her perfect long legs, and in the next moment, her pretty face blushed for no reason. That was because she thought of the scene where Duque, that little rascal, had cast his gaze on her peaks several times.
She fiercely gritted her teeth. "That little perverted rascal, he really doesn't hide his thoughts! If there's a chance, I must teach him how to respect his elders! "
Inexplicably, at the same time, Duque sneezed.
"Ha — what the hell? Did I catch a cold? " Duque still didn't know that because of his soliloquy, he had been tricked by Skylark.
After washing up, Duque put on a set of blue and white mage robes with gold trim. This was a small gift from Old Mage Norton. According to Old Man Norton, if he wore the coarse linen shirt and the mage badge on the streets of Stormwind City, it would be a disgrace to all mages.
After dressing neatly, looking at himself in the big mirror in the room, Duque suddenly felt that the clothes make the man. Originally a college student, Duque put on a mage robe. Although he felt that it was cumbersome, he looked like a scholar and really had a scholarly temperament.
He already had a plan in mind, and just as he was about to implement it, Duque was stunned as soon as he opened the door.
In the guest room outside the door, he saw three Stormwind City soldiers standing as straight as javelins.
The two behind them were fully armed guards, and the heroic middle-aged knight in the middle was wearing a ceremonial robe with blue patterns on a white background. There was a golden shoulder ornament like a sword tassel on his shoulder. His brown hair was neatly combed, and even an ant couldn't climb on it.
The knight lightly hit the left side of his chest with his right fist and bowed. "Hello, respected Sir Earth Mage Duke Marcus. I am Garcia Rody, the commander of the Stormwind City Garrison Army's third regiment. I bring greetings from Stormwind City's commander, Anduin Lothar. "
Lothar looking for me?
Duque was very polite. "Hello, I am Duque. May I ask why Commander Lothar is looking for me?"
"It's like this. The great King Laing and Commander Lothar found out that you are the second youngest official mage in Stormwind City's history, and that you are willing to join the kingdom's Mage Corps. Both His Majesty and Commander Lothar are very happy. Therefore, they have asked me to bring greetings from King Laing and Commander Lothar. "
Duque nodded. "Yes, thank them for their concern. Thank them for me."
Garcia smiled and waved his hand. Immediately, a group of attendants outside the guest room filed in.
"This is the letter of appointment for the official Mage Corps signed by His Majesty himself. Every autumn, there will be a welcoming ceremony hosted by His Majesty for the official members of the Mage Corps."
"This is His Majesty's consolation money for you — 100 Arathor gold coins."
"I heard that Sir Marcus came from the pioneer settlement outside the Elven Forest. Therefore, His Majesty has specially rewarded you with a house. He has also provided you with two servants. If you are not satisfied with the servants, you can let me know. I am authorized to satisfy your needs to the greatest extent. "
Indeed, King Laing was a wise monarch. He was very clear about the value of talents. For a talented young mage from a commoner background, he definitely valued him.
Seeing the undisguised envy in Garcia's eyes, Duque immediately knew that even for a new official mage, this was a reward that was above average.
In the eyes of Duque, who was most in need of money, this was no different from a timely rain.
It was equivalent to the first bucket of gold to push forward Duque's next plan.
"Once again, thank His Majesty for the reward," said Duque as he flipped through the list that Garcia handed over. "This is …"
Garcia hurriedly explained, "Official mages are the kingdom's important talents. Every mage should have sufficient protection when they go out. Therefore, these are the follower candidates that His Majesty Lothar has carefully selected for you. Every one of them is absolutely loyal to the kingdom, and their combat skills are also quite good. According to Sir Marcus's rank, you can choose up to two knight candidates as your exclusive followers. "
Duque could not help but laugh.
As a PVP maniac in the game, he never thought that there would come a day when a mage who fought so fiercely would need a bodyguard.
Since he had transmigrated, he would do as the Romans do.
As he flipped through the list, a name suddenly made Duque's heart jump violently.
"Reginald Windsor!"
