I asked you to be a mage, not to raise a nine-tailed fox

Chapter 347: Anros's messenger? Mina: Isn't this the one we both defeated?

"Ansu feels pretty good."

Talil sat on top of the Cloud Python.

She stroked her long golden hair with one hand and looked at the clouds in front of her that were coated with a layer of golden light by the setting sun.

I feel very good.

"That's it."

Although Emily said this, the depression in her heart was more or less relieved.

But my feelings towards Anzu remain the same.

I went to the royal capital.

It is pretty much the same as the usual impression, a poor and remote area where there are no serious extraordinary people - even legends are rarely seen.

Down and out, glory is gone.

Could a small, remote noble in such a kingdom really come up with enough resources to exchange for the two berries in her hand?
Don't take back what you brought with you.

"Actually, I feel a little sorry for Sister Laura."

Emily sighed a little.

After so many years, I have been in charge of a place like this...

There is no magic when you need it, and there are no elements when you need them.

A kingdom without strong combat power, in a place like this - can the attainment of magic really be improved?

Emily didn't believe it.

She has now obtained the materials to achieve a legendary breakthrough, and is even ready to do so.

but……

In places where this element is thin.

She didn't even have the thought of breaking through, and her magic contraction power was at full capacity.

"It's just ahead."

Emily looked towards the southeast.

There, there is a woodland.

As long as you cross that forest and go forward, you will reach the territory of Ornn.

Even the royal capital is like that - such a remote place, a barren land as the people of Ansu call it... Never mind.

Just go and check it out.

The two were very fast.

The Cloud Python twisted its body and moved through the clouds at a very fast speed.

The sun sets in the west.

The two of them were now standing outside Ornn's territory.

“It feels a little different here.”

Talil looked around curiously.

It's a different feeling here.

The atmosphere there is simply incomparable to that in Ansu Capital.

Emily frowned, and she did feel something.

But it is still the same, still a barren land.

In a place like this, even the guards are probably only at the third or fourth level.

"Buzz~"

Suddenly Emily became alert.

She turned her head suddenly and saw a group of monsters approaching from afar.

The Grass-Necked Dragon, the Wind-Thunder Bee, and the Bear Monster were all lined up in an orderly manner.

Among them were dozens of rare elemental life forms, whose aura was so powerful that even Emily was surprised.

How come there is such strong elemental life here?

Peak of level six?

No, maybe stronger.

And those wind and thunder bees...

Each one of them is of a very high level.

None of them has an aura lower than level five.

How could there be such a powerful monster here?

What happened to these monsters...

Just when Emily had drawn out her sword and was ready to clear out the monsters.

Suddenly I saw the city gate not far away opened.

It was as if it was deliberately made easier for the monsters to enter.

Is there something wrong with Mina, the lord of the city of Ornn?

If we allow such a large army of monsters to enter the city, there will be great loss of lives!

Emily gritted her teeth.

at this time……

Her movements suddenly paused because she saw the same group of Wind and Thunder Bees coming out of the city gate.

There were probably only about twenty of them, but the aura of each one was also at the sixth level.

They came out of the city gate, as if to welcome the army of monsters.

"???"

Emily's mind was full of question marks.

Talil's eyes lit up.

"These monsters look like guards."

Emily seemed to notice it too.

Forcefully suppress the desire to take action.

"Let's go in and take a look."

Emily didn't act rashly.

The two followed the large group of monsters and entered the city of Ornn.

"That is……"

Talil suddenly blinked.

What's happening here?
It's on the central street of the city of Orn.

A large number of children ran out.

They seemed to be oblivious to the threat posed by those monsters.

Even many children started playing directly.

Those who want to eat honey catch the wind and thunder bee.

If you want to play, go find those bear monsters.

What an eye-opener.

The bear monsters even scratched in their fur and pulled out a piece of dried poultry that was pickled in an unknown way and gave it to the child.

The child ran away amid the envious gazes of other children.

"What's happening here?"

Emily frowned.

She had heard that there were places where monsters and humans coexisted.

It is in the extreme southwest of the continent.

But that was in a relatively primitive tribe, and monsters were considered magical pets in the tribe.

But a place like Ornn's territory... well, maybe Emily is just too narrow-minded.

Anyway, she had never heard of it.

"Interesting, interesting."

Tariel stared at the monsters eagerly.

It turns out that these are really the soldiers and guards of Ornn Territory. There really is such a territory.

When she was very young, she wondered if there was a world where humans and monsters coexisted.

Then she was ridiculed by her stubborn legendary old man.

Now, I really want to bring that old man over to see this Ornn territory.

Look, look.

The world is so big, there are no wonders!

"Emily, now I am a little curious about Lord Mina. How did he do it?"

Emily looked silently at the ancient castle at the highest point of Anen Territory.

The lord here...

A small lord in a remote area actually built such a city in such a remote area.

I hope this city will have other surprises, so that her days waiting for Sister Laura won’t be too boring.

"The messenger is here? In the hall?"

Mina's eyes lit up when he heard this.

The two messengers were entertained by the elf maid, Helenia.

Emily looked at Helenia in her maid outfit and was silent.

what happened.

Something felt wrong ever since we entered this castle.

This maid gave her a feeling that something was wrong.

She has a very good temperament, giving off a feeling of an elf aristocrat.

The aura is also strong, it feels like it is at the quasi-legendary level?
How could there be a maid of this level in Anzu?

what's the situation?
Or is it her illusion?

"Welcome to Ornnland."

Suddenly a voice sounded.

Emily and Tariel looked back.

A man and two women came out of the side hall.

The man was quite young and handsome, and at first glance, he looked like a typical young nobleman.

He was wearing a loose robe and had a faint smile on his face. You know what, this boy looked quite handsome when he smiled.

Beside him were two women with even more outstanding temperaments.

One person is as flamboyant as a queen, with a strong aura.

The other person was extremely smart, and his friendliness carried an indescribable aura.

But what surprised Emily was not only the outstanding temperament and appearance of these three people.

But magic and elements!
The moment the three people appeared.

Emily felt that the elemental magic around her was suppressed.

legend!

Among these three people, there must be a legend.

This also changed Emily's attitude towards the three people.

Legendary strongmen should be respected no matter where they are.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine."

Talil suddenly spoke up, looking at Catherine with burning eyes.

Her voice seemed a little excited.

"Are you Her Royal Highness Catherine?"

Catherine also looked at the girl with some surprise.

"you know me?"

"of course."

Talil smiled and said, "Of course I know the regent queen of Anzu and the future ruler of Anzu. I didn't expect to meet you here."

A big part of the reason why the two of them went to the capital of Anzu was that Tariel wanted to see if he could meet Catherine by chance.

Unfortunately, no.

I originally thought that I would miss the chance to see Her Majesty the First Queen of Anzu.

But I didn't expect to meet him in the southeast of Ansu.

"Oh, the Queen Regent. I am no longer the Queen Regent starting this year. I am now just a small lord of Ornn Territory."

Catherine waved her hand and said nonchalantly.

Talil: “???”

what?
The five of them sat down and chatted for a while based on Catherine's words.

It also brought the two sides closer together.

A messenger from Anros.

One was named Tariel and the other was named Emily.

When I heard these two names.

Mina is a bit odd.

He said that these two people gave him a familiar feeling.

Now look at it this way.

Oh, they were indeed his two defeated generals.

What a coincidence.

"Come on, come on, you two have come from afar, have some tea to quench your thirst."

Mina made two cups of black tea for the two of them.

Talil's eyes lit up.

Emily also looked at Mina.

The meaning of the star just now is the star water-making technique. Such a young star water-making master?
This Ansu is really good at producing talented people.

"Thank you."

Emily still showed due courtesy.

After saying thank you, he took a sip.

"Ok?"

Not to mention it tastes really good.

She also learned how to drink tea from Sister Laura in her early years, so she has some understanding of what kind of tea tastes good.

The tea that Mina made using magic power actually tastes better than those made from extremely valuable tea leaves.

interesting.

Now, she might have some idea why Sister Laura wanted to help Mina.

Just relying on this skill of making water from stars, he is very popular even in the whole Anros.

but……

It's still not enough.

"Let's get down to business first."

Emily's attitude seemed to soften.

The other party is at least an absolute genius.

Still a small lord.

Such a person was enough for her to give him the attitude he deserved.

"I came here this time because Sister Laura asked me to give you two tree fruits."

Emily flipped her hand, took out two small boxes from her space ring, and placed them on the coffee table.

Mina's eyes lit up when he saw the two small boxes.

"These two are the flame and water berries you need. Their quality is quite good among level 4 Xi."

Emily looked at Mina.

"I know that you have a good relationship with Sister Laura, but let's be honest. This time I am representing the Professional Association, and the items belong to the Professional Association. If you can't come up with enough exchange resources, I can't give you these two tree fruits."

Mina nodded.

This is business, and there is nothing wrong with what Emily said.

But this Xi 4 made him a little concerned.

Is this the classification of fruit quality on Anros’ side?

He pondered for a moment, then took out a small box from his space ring and pushed it in front of Emily.

"I didn't study abroad in Anros, so I don't know much about your ratings. Can you help me see how much this fruit is worth? Is it enough to exchange for two of the level 4 Xi fruit you mentioned?"

Emily frowned slightly as she looked at the small box in front of her.

Just one berry?

It’s not that she doesn’t trust Mina.

I simply don't trust Ansu, a small piece of land. It's really a remote place, and such a place is basically completely undeveloped.

It is a miracle to have tree fruits. The quality is at most level 3 or 4, which is rare.

Even if they are the best among Xio 4... How should I put it, both of them are of quite high quality, and one best one is not enough.

Even though she thought so, Emily still pushed the small box open.

At this moment, time seems to stand still.

A strong light emerged.

That was an incomparable magical aura.

The element of wind surged out at this moment.

In just a breath, it filled the entire hall and seemed to be spreading outward.

"Snapped."

Emily immediately snapped on the small box.

She stared at the small box blankly, almost unable to come back to her senses.

What a ghost.

What the hell is this?
Why do I see something like this here?!

"What's wrong? Is it not valuable enough?"

Mina looked at Emily with some curiosity.

Are the fruits that Emily brought this time so good in quality?

Isn’t this wind-type fruit collected from the Wind and Thunder World enough?

Emily looked up at Mina.

She opened her mouth.

how did you get it
Where did you get it?
Brother, please help me get rich... cough cough cough.

Of course, I swallowed all the words that came to my lips.

There was a change in the way Emily looked at Mina.

She took a breath.

The remaining wind element in the air filled her body.

Even the energy that just overflowed from the fruit can have such an effect.

How rich are the elements of this fruit itself!
Such a fruit is sealed in such a simple little box.

Do you know?

If they are not sealed, the energy of these fruits will naturally overflow?

After a long time, even if it is in a box, its effect will be greatly reduced.

She looked at the small box with some heat in her eyes, but also a little embarrassed.

"The quality of the fruit here is more than enough to exchange for the two fruit I have, but..."

She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Mina also looked at her, waiting for her to continue speaking.

The "but" and the part before the comma are not very important. What is important is the supplementary part after it.

But what?
"But I may not be able to exchange it for you directly."

Emily said so.

Tariel also looked at the stunned Mina and the conflicted Emily with a strange expression.

She sighed and said to Mina directly, "To be frank, Lord Mina, the quality of your fruit is really too good. The value of what Emily brought this time is totally not worth it."

To put it bluntly, Emily...

Can't find zero.
