"Ampere Seale?"
The girl sitting on the bench looked at her best friend in shock. She was the half Fairy Princess, with her long silver hair hanging loosely over her princess dress, her body as slender as a doll, and her silver eyes filled with calmness and calmness. However, this seemingly weak girl was known for her strong character in the circle of nobles.
She always carried a silver dagger inlaid with emeralds. It looked like a dagger used by noble ladies for self-defense, but Magadal did not doubt that she could easily subdue a grown man with that dagger. Of course, this was still not the right way to put it. This princess was famous for her swordsmanship in the royal family. Even an official Knight of the kingdom would not be her match.
The girl pressed her hands on her knees, and could not help but feel envious. She was also a princess from the Dukedom of Manticore. She had known Gryphine since young, and the two had always been close friends. However, she was envious of Gryphine's ability to naturally show her strength. Even the smallest details in her movements showed the princess's extremely independent character. In comparison, she had grown up learning strict aristocratic etiquette. Although she was well-educated and knowledgeable, outsiders had always seen her as a gentle, quiet, and elegant young lady.
It could even be said that she was the role model of most noble ladies in Wohnde.
However, Magadal did not like such praise. She wanted to be free to pursue the life she wanted. However, she did not know what kind of life she wanted. Furthermore, her serious character forced her to take responsibility for her own destiny. The Dukedom of Manticore was just a small country in the north of Erouine. For a girl like her, her future was already set in stone.
"Why do you suddenly want me to go to Ampere Seale, Gryphine? Is it because of the war?"
The half Fairy Princess nodded her head.
Suddenly, there was a loud commotion outside the balcony. Knights were sparring in the square outside. However, the commotion quickly subsided, and it did not affect the conversation between the two in the room.
"Has the situation become so tense?" Magadal asked softly.
"What do you think, Tini? My brother's actions are faster than I thought. The dukes have already formed an alliance. Although that old fox Arreck is still hesitating, I think he will make a decision soon. " The silver-haired girl explained unhurriedly, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
"Maybe there is still a chance, Gryphine." Magadal could not help but say.
"It's not that simple, Tini. Arreck has always been ambitious. He wants to stand with my dear brother, or stand with us. "The half Fairy Princess paused for a moment, and said faintly," I don't mind the marriage, but I am worried that it will harm's Haruz.
Thus, the young girl sitting opposite her no longer spoke, but looked at her calmly. The two of them were close friends, and understood that the other would not be stumped by this little difficulty.
Gryphine would not be Erouine's princess if she did.
"Actually, my main concern is Count Randner," the silver-haired girl lowered her voice, "If Duke Arreck is like a dark cloud in the northern sky that can bring a storm at any time, then as long as the wind is blowing in the right direction, he may not necessarily be our enemy. He can also be our ally. But I suspect that Count Randner will draw his dagger at us from behind at any time. "
Magadal's brown eyes flashed with interest, and she suddenly said, "I heard something that you might be interested in, Gryphine."
"Go ahead, Tini."
The princess of the Manticore Dukedom leaned closer to Gryphine: "I have a friend who just sent me a magic letter from Count Randner. He said that Count Randner seems to be in some trouble, and there are some rebellions in his territory. I think he might not have the time to care about things outside of his territory for the time being. "
"Is it a friend from the Holy Cathedral?" The half Fairy Princess asked seriously.
Magadal nodded slightly.
The silver-haired girl looked at her close friend seriously. Even though she did not have any elven blood, her beauty was not inferior to her own. However, they were completely different. Her soft golden hair seemed to be plated with a layer of holy radiance under the soft light, setting off her quiet and gentle face.
It wasn't without reason that this young girl was called the Frowning Angel, although such beauty was extremely rare among humans. Gryphine could not help but think of an ancient human kingdom's queen.
But the queen's fate was too tragic, and this made her frown slightly as she shook her head and threw the thought out of her mind.
Magadal herself was an extremely devout believer, and she was very close to the Holy Cathedral of Fire. At the same time, she also maintained a very good personal relationship with many of the priests in the Holy Cathedral. Because of her close relationship with the Holy Cathedral, she was jokingly called the Nun Princess by many nobles.
The High Priest of the Holy Cathedral had publicly praised this girl's devotion to her faith, and it was also because of this that the Nun Princess was not harassed because of her beauty.
This was because the reality was often like this. Between royal authority and divine authority, the former made people yearn for it, while the latter was more revered.
"Tini, do you remember a joke we heard when we were learning about royal etiquette?" The half Fairy Princess suddenly asked: "In Erouine, there is no lord who does not deal with a rebellion or two. Otherwise, he is not a true lord."
Magadal smiled slightly, most likely because Gryphine's words reminded her of the carefree days of the past.
"It's actually the same everywhere, Gryphine."
"Yes," the silver-haired girl nodded: "So don't put your hopes on others. Let's just hope that Count Randner will be flustered for a while. But we still have to do what we have to do."
"Then what can I do, Gryphine?"
"I hope that you can use your relationship with the Holy Cathedral to persuade the merchants of Ampere Seale to reject the alliance's request." The half Fairy Princess replied: "Tini, the free port is under the protection of the Holy Cathedral. They have the ability to do so, but I'm worried that the merchants will be tempted by the benefits —"
"I know the presiding priest of Ampere Seale, I can give it a try." Magadal thought for a moment and asked: "But when do I have to leave, Gryphine?"
"There's no need to rush," Gryphine said: "Once you leave my place, I'm guessing that the Dukes will immediately receive the news. This is a dangerous matter, Tini, you have to think carefully. Although you are my good friend, I don't want you to get into any trouble — "
"That's why I want to help you, Gryphine."
"Thank you," the silver-haired girl looked at the direction of the balcony, and the loud cheers from before rang out once again. This meant that one of the battles had been decided. Her silver eyes flashed: "Let me help you choose a few people who can complete this mission with you and protect your safety, Tini —"
"Then of course I want Sister Maynild." Magadal's face revealed a rare sly look. She would only reveal this side of hers in front of Gryphine. "If she's with me, I'll have someone to chat with and relieve my boredom."
The princess smiled: "You're not the least bit courteous, taking away my best Knight. But since that's the case, I can only reluctantly part with her — but you have to take good care of Sister Maynild, her temper is much worse than mine. "
"Of course." Magadal blinked.
In reality, the three of them were close friends who had known each other since they were young. They understood each other's personalities the best. Although Maynild was born with a cold temperament, she was not someone who would throw a tantrum at others.
At this time, cheers rang out from outside the balcony again, drowning out all the sounds in the room. This time, it was different from the previous times. The cheers did not stop for a long time, and the two who were familiar with all of this understood that this meant that the final stage of the Knight Tournament was about to begin.
The half- Fairy Princess was distracted by the cheers. She raised her head, her silver eyes sparkling. After a while, she opened her mouth: "Let's go, let's see which outstanding young people are lucky enough to be with Tini —"
Magadal smiled and nodded.
… …
The second round of the tournament was about to begin.
Freya's palms were sweaty, and her heart was pounding. If the audience outside the balcony could take a closer look at the face of this girl from Bucce, they would definitely notice that her face was as red as a ripe apple. She was panting heavily, sweat dripping down her sharp chin, and the back of her uniform was already soaked. The consecutive battles had taken a toll on the future Valkyrie's stamina.
She had defeated many opponents along the way and had attracted the attention of many people. As a new member of this batch of young students, her performance could be said to be outstanding. However, Freya knew that she was not the only one like this. On the other side of the balcony, Bretton and three other students had also become the most dazzling existences of this batch of young students.
She wiped the sweat off her chin with her hand. Compared to them, she could be considered as the least outstanding one.
In the previous battle, Bretton only used three moves to defeat his opponent, a member of the Knight Reserve who was one level higher than him. When Freya saw this scene, she realized that the impulsive and immature youth in the past had become much calmer and more mature. His swordsmanship had also improved to such an extent.
Freya could almost imagine Bretton's amazing talent shining brightly on his sword. He had found his place, and this was the best stage for him to show off his skills.
However, compared to him, she was still a little confused. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
