Magic Chronicles : Fallen Race

"Hey brother, I remember you," Sea Tiger's rough voice sounded, and the burly man came up to Reji and looked him over carefully before seeming to confirm his identity.

Especially since there was a cloaked Vielsia next to him.

Such a combination was not common among adventurers.

And the girl from the Eagle Mercenary Group who had just noticed Reji and actively reminded Sea Tiger seemed to have been holding it in for a long time. Now that she was in front of Reji, she immediately spoke up.

"Hmph, that's right, it's the fool who was slightly favored by the nobles and became dizzy."

This female adventurer was petite.

From the staff she held in her arms, it was easy to judge her profession.

"Hahaha, brother, don't take it to heart. Luna is like that, sharp-tongued but soft-hearted."

"When we first saw you going with Ariel to the count's mansion, Luna was the most worried about you. If I hadn't stopped her, she was even prepared to rush over and pull you guys back."

"S, Stop... stop talking nonsense!"

The petite female mage named Luna seemed a little embarrassed at being exposed and turned her head, no longer speaking.

"So brother, what happened afterward? Did you leave in the middle, or..."

"Did you escape?"

Sea Tiger's last words were grave, his expression serious, because, in his understanding, Reji, the ignorant adventurer who had been deceived, was most likely hopeless.

But now, not only had he come out alive, but he was also a member of the princess's tactical team, participating in this meeting, which was very strange.

"This is thanks to my companion, who noticed something wrong with the food at dinner in time. We didn't eat much and barely managed to escape."

"But I don't want to stop there. I was shocked by the darkness of these nobles. As a teacher of Ilinor, I want to contribute to this country, so I accepted the princess's invitation and joined the team."

"Oh? brother, you're a teacher too? Where?"

"The Royal Academy, Department of Spells."

When Reji said this, Sea Tiger's face immediately showed surprise.

Even Luna, who had turned her head away and was actually eavesdropping, now turned her head back, looking very surprised.

"The Royal Academy? That's not simple! It's the highest academic institution in our Ilinor, brother, you must be from out of town, right? A teacher from outside, heh, brother's spell skills must be impressive.

No wonder you were able to escape safely from Ariel's place."

"Hahaha, it looks like that noble lady missed the mark this time and kicked a stone."

"And who is this companion of yours?"

"She is my student, also from out of the capital."

At this moment, footsteps sounded from behind a few people.

The protagonist of tonight's meeting, Princess Yuffie, also entered the room. She must have also heard the conversation between Reji and Sea Tiger, and as she walked over, she added:

"Indeed, Miss Vielsia is an excellent student of our Royal Academy, with top grades in all subjects. And Sea Tiger, the third-tier scroll at your auction, it was created by her."

"What!?"

Now, it was not only the members of the Eagle Mercenary Group who were shocked, but the other adventurers who had come for the operation were also amazed and looked at Vielsia and Reji with many admiring glances.

After all,

"Being able to draw a third-tier scroll means that Miss Vielsia is at least a third-tier mage, right? Amazing! Truly amazing!" Sea Tiger exclaimed and gave Vielsia a thumbs-up.

The female adventurer mage, Luna, also opened her eyes wide. As a mage herself, she had just reached the threshold of the third tier, but the person in front of her, who looked even younger than her, was already at the third tier?

Princess Yuffie deliberately revealed this information, and the purpose was simple: the atmosphere in the room immediately rose several notches.

Not only was there the Eagle Mercenary Group, but there was also an additional third-tier mage.

This time, even the Five Flowers Alliance would not be able to cause any trouble!

Everyone was clearly more confident about tomorrow night's operation.

And soon, everyone reacted again.

'Wait a moment!'

'

Wait a moment

!'

'If the student was already at the third tier, then what about her mentor, Teacher Reji?'

Behind Princess Yuffie, there was another girl.

From her red hair and similar appearance, it was clear that they were related by blood:Sophia, the little princess of Ilinor, and Yuffie's sister.

From her red hair and similar appearance, it was clear that they were related by blood:

Sophia

, the little princess of Ilinor, and Yuffie's sister.

The younger princess was also particularly interested in Reji, stepping out from behind her sister with a curious look in her clear eyes.

On the other hand, Sea Tiger became more cautious as Reji's identity changed. Although the burly man appeared rough, as the leader of an A-rank mercenary group, he was not without subtle thoughts.

Sea Tiger laughed heartily and joked, "Brother, if you have the chance, come and visit our Eagle Mercenary. Our little Luna has been paying close attention to you, and now it's perfect. You happen to be a great teacher. Would you consider taking on another student?"

"To be honest, Luna has been following us wild guys, and I've wanted to find her a teacher for a long time to give her some professional and systematic magical education. But every time I mention it, she thinks she's too good for those academy professors. Oh, just look at her!"

Luna, teased by Sea Tiger, was now blushing, her cheeks puffed up in anger, looking like she wanted to hit him with her staff. Many of the adventurers in the Eagle Mercenary Group laughed heartily.

But despite her anger, Luna was indeed secretly looking at Reji.

The fact that Reji had a third-tier female student was enough to show his skills, and Luna was truly moved.

It was easy to see that although these adventurers in the Eagle Mercenary Group looked fierce and evil, their leader looked like a typical thug, but in fact, they were very united and harmonious internally, and they were kind.

The simple chat ended here.

After Princess Yuffie took the stage, everyone quieted down, and each person listened seriously to Yuffie's arrangements for the battle plan.

These adventurers gathered by Yuffie all had some hatred for the Five Flowers Alliance. Some had friends or family killed by the Five Flowers Alliance, and some even had entire villages used and deeply involved by the Five Flowers Alliance.

It was not until now that Vielsia realized how dark, ugly, and filthy the Five Flowers Alliance really was.

When she thought back to the Five Flowers Alliance's fundraiser, it was undoubtedly a great shock and stimulus for this pure-as-white-paper elven princess, and Vielsia's mentality was undergoing a silent change.

However.

In fact, it was not only the elven girl who was a little uncomfortable now.

Shermen, hidden in the shadow behind Reji, also felt the same.

She didn't understand why the demon king was wasting so much time on these human misfits and even chatting with them.

In Shermen's eyes, these people were basically no different from corpses.

Because the shadow demon behind Princess Yuffie had disappeared.

This meant that Leo had probably finished his reconnaissance and had been recalled. He found no use in these people; they were all sacrifices, doomed to die.

But now it seemed that the demon king intended to help these human misfits as part of the princess's faction?

Wouldn't that conflict with the Wisdom Demon's plan?

'I don't understand...'

But although Shermen didn't understand, she hadn't forgotten that the Wisdom Demon had warned her that there was a deeper meaning behind the demon king's actions.

If she couldn't see it, it wasn't his majesty's problem, but her own stupidity.

Based on this premise, Shermen thought hard again.

Suddenly, she remembered something.

During the thousand years of the Wisdom Demon's seal, there was a period when he might have had nothing to do and wanted to improve the intelligence level of the demons. He had indeed given them lessons and mentioned a strategy called "playing against the opponent."

It seemed to be a deliberate fight between both sides.

As for more details, such as what this strategy was for, Shermen didn't know. It wasn't that she had forgotten; she simply hadn't listened. She had probably been sleeping at that time.

Still, she didn't understand.

Shermen shook her head and stopped thinking about it.

After all, the demons had clear divisions of labor. It was better to leave this kind of brainwork to the Wisdom Demon.

'If it were Leo, he would surely be able to figure out his majesty's intentions and cooperate well with him'

'And as a shadow demon, as a guard, I only needed to protect his majesty well'
