In the town square, the dazzling sunlight made me feel a little dazzling, I looked up at the knight of the lion eagle who had turned into a black spot in the sky, and I still had lingering feelings about the flight trip just now, but the young people in the square who were about to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony did not think so, and a few more daring aristocratic young men came over and asked me curiously: what kind of mood and feeling is it to sit on the back of the lion eagle just now.I scratched my head and thought about it for a moment before I said, "It's okay to fly at a fast speed, but that lion eagle is very unfriendly, and I feel like he always wants to peck at me." ”The aristocratic young man laughed heartily when he heard me say this: "Haha, those big guys are usually like that, only knights who have signed a magic contract with them can approach them, I have long wanted to sit on the back of the lion eagle and go around the sky above the imperial capital, but unfortunately I have never had this opportunity." ”He was surrounded by a group of young aristocrats, who looked like a small circle, presumably graduates of some junior college.As for what the aristocratic young man said, whether he didn't find a chance to ride on it, or whether he didn't have the courage to get close to the royal lion eagle, I think the real answer tends to be the latter.The Royal Lion Eagle is a unique kind of flying monster that has been domesticated in the Grimm Empire, it is a white eagle and a hybrid of a manticore, with the head and wings of an eagle, with the body, tail and claws of a lion, the feathers on the head are grayish-white, the wings are a little yellow, the body is as strong as a lion, its wingspan is almost ten meters, and the flight speed is also very fast, although it is domesticated Warcraft, but for strangers it will still reveal the wild nature hidden in its body.I remember sitting on the back of the lion eagle and curiously asked the royal lion eagle knight: Are all the young people who failed to attend the coming-of-age ceremony, the lion eagle knights, known as the royal sky guard, give free help?
The Knight of the Eagle smiled and said to me, "Of course not."
The Royal Lion Eagle circled in the air for a short time, and he pointed to the crowd that was surging like a wave in the street, and said to me: There are so many people, we can't help them.I asked him, "Then why are you helping me?"
The Royal Lion Eagle Knight said straight to the point: That's because of your nobility, the medal you wear on your chest shows that you can enjoy many privileges, but speaking of which, I have never seen you, which family are you?
I sighed to myself, this is really a world where only nobles have privileges.It's just that the Knight of the Lion Eagle asked me what kind of wealthy family I was, and I didn't understand why he asked so surely.So he said to him, "Why do you ask?"
Can't I just be a kid from an ordinary family?
The Lion Eagle Knight laughed and said: Don't be kidding, how can a young man who can afford to wear a magic pattern costume to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony be ordinary, when I first participated in the coming-of-age ceremony, I didn't wear it so aggressively!
Now the young man stands in the town square, and the exclamation of the Lion Eagle Knight still echoes in my ears.The Knight of the Lion Eagle felt that I had such courage in the face of the Lion Eagle that it was likely that I would become his colleague in the future, and as he left, he told me that he was looking forward to meeting again in the Royal Knight of the Lion Eagle.Later, I learned that every year in the imperial capital there are teenagers who can't get to the municipal square on time to take the oath for various reasons, even if they send ten times more manpower than the knights, I'm afraid there is no way to send all the late teenagers to the municipal square, and I am the lucky one among these people.The young men and girls waiting to take the oath in the square gathered in groups and chatted, each with their own little circle, people of the same age, they were either friends or classmates of the same college, they were dressed in festive costumes, many young people wore formal dresses and formal attire, and some wore the new armor of the warriors such as the sting-tailed crystal lion skin armor or chain mail, and wore delicate weapons that were more decorative than practical, which contrasted sharply with the ornate dresses.A group of young men and women wearing magic robes occupy the corner of the square, they are all young magicians who have awakened the magic pool, they should have just graduated from the junior magic academy, some young people wearing Misoli magic robes or knowledge magic robes, which means that they have successfully become official magicians, and some wearing dedication magic robes, it can only be said that even if they have graduated from the junior magic academy, they may still be only magic apprentices.There are also two large circles in the square, that is, the commoner boys are incompatible with the aristocratic boys, and the commoner boys are slightly more plainly dressed and do not wear any badges on their chests.As for those teenagers from aristocratic families, the clothes on their bodies looked much more gorgeous.Even if these two circles are standing in the square, there will be a clear dividing line.I was dressed in an ornate demonic costume and was soon relegated to the circle of noble boys, but I didn't know anyone here.I studied magic at the War Academy in El City for three years, and at the recommendation of Mentor Heidi, I came to the Royal Academy of Magic to study magic, so that all of my classmates were a year older than me, and they were almost like Noah, who had only participated in the coming-of-age ceremony last year.So much so that standing in the square, I looked so alone.The annual rite of passage is divided into three stages, the first stage is the vow of coming-of-age, the second stage is the blessing of the goddess, and the third stage is the most important part of the whole celebration.In previous years, the rite of passage was taken in the square in front of the temple, and then after receiving the blessings of the high priests in the temple, it finally returned to the square in each neighborhood for a grand open-air ball.Of course, this year's coming-of-age ceremony was held differently than in the past, with the oath taken under the Statue of Liberty in front of Temple Square instead being taken in front of Municipal Square.I think the reason for this is because in this plane war, the temple did not send priests and priests to participate in the war, and it was a very extreme way for the royal family and the local ruling class to express their strong dissatisfaction with the temple.If this group of young people can take an oath under the solemn statue of Lady Liberty, it will plant a seed of faith in the hearts of these young people, and it will be of great help to the apostles of Lady Liberty to spread their faith in the Grimm Empire.But if the coming-of-age ceremony was taken in front of the town square, then the ruler deliberately deepened the subjective perception of the entire empire by this group of young people, and instead downplayed the status of theocracy in the hearts of the younger generation.From a distance, I saw Ying Li wearing a pure white knowledge and magic robe, standing slimly in the corner of the square, and a group of young magicians gathered around him, as if they were discussing something hotly.When Ying Li saw that I saw her, he smiled and beckoned to me.I didn't know any of the young people here except for Ying Li, so I walked straight to Ying Li.The young nobleman kindly reminded me, "Well, it's a gathering place for magicians, and they don't welcome us, so let's just wait by the side, and the festivities will begin in a while." ”I nodded gratefully at his kind reminder.Then he leaned over and asked me tentatively, "By the way, I don't know what your profession is, warrior?"
Knight?
Or an assassin?
”I pointed to my nose and asked him, "Me?"
”He nodded and said to me, "Well, which academy are you from, you're so cool in this magic pattern costume!"
Look, there is not a single scratch on the leather, is it a brand new set?
Did your family buy it for you?
”"I'm not a warrior, I'm a water magician.As for this magic pattern structure, it was given by a person who is also a teacher and friend. ”After saying this, I took out a Royal Academy of Magic badge from my magic belt bag and hung it on my chest, waved my hand at him, and walked straight to Ying Li's side.Leaving only a bewildered aristocratic young man looking at me blankly, I guess he must have a sentence lingering in his mind at the moment I am a magician I am a magician I am a magician walked to Ying Li's side, I secretly observed Ying Li's face, she stood in the crowd with a demure face, like a pretty lily that secretly bloomed with a beautiful face.She came out of the crowd and stood in front of me with a smile, pursed her lips and looked at me with a smile, "Still late, right?"
”I said to Ying Li rather distressedly: "The streets of the whole city are crowded with people, the streets are crowded with horse-drawn carriages, there is no way to pass, I knew that the festival would completely paralyze the traffic in the imperial capital, so I went out a little earlier." ”Ying Li squinted his eyes, a pear vortex appeared on his face, and asked me in a low voice, "Hey, how does Jijia feel when he flies over on a lion eagle?"
”I leaned into Ying Li's ear and whispered to her, "Why do you all have to ask such a question, I don't feel any difference in sitting on the lion eagle!"
Oh, by the way, after I left, you and Kig didn't fight, did you?
”She covered her mouth and smiled, "You think we're going to fight?"
But why do we fight?
”I immediately realized that opening the topic was a very wrong thing in itself, so I immediately changed my tune and asked Ying Li: "By the way, why didn't Helena and Becky come?"
”I think Ying Li's magic robe is very beautiful on her body, and she actually wears a set of knowledge magic robes with a taste of a court evening dress.When Ying Li heard me ask this, he looked at me with obvious surprise and said to me, "Ah, you don't know how old they are?"
”I shook my head and nodded again.Ying Li said to me with a smile: "You really lack communication with the two of them, they are a year older than me, and they attended the coming-of-age ceremony at this time last year. ”After saying that, she pointed to the right periphery of the square, and I turned my head to look over, and happened to see Qige standing with Le Die, Helena, and Becky, and in the most obvious position stood a lady Manda with a haughty and indifferent expression, who never seemed to smile, and the haughty character and amazing beauty of the elven woman were vividly displayed in her.Time could not leave even the slightest trace on the princess of the elven race, who was now looking coldly at us, and when she saw me, she twisted her head to the side with a cold expression.It seems that she still doesn't like me very much.I sighed slightly, and I didn't know when I would change Lady Manda's mind, and maybe I should be a little better.I asked Ying Li: "How did you get here, if you ride in the magic caravan, won't you be stuck in traffic?"
”Ying Li seemed to be in a good mood, and when she saw that I was still entangled in this, she couldn't help but sneer, like a lily that suddenly bloomed.Ying Li said to me: "You don't know that there is a road leading to the Municipal Square, which is specially for the magic caravan of the nobles, and we rushed all the way from that road, which is naturally unimpeded." ”I exclaimed, "Oh, it's the privilege of the aristocracy again, I see!"
”In fact, until now, I have no way to understand what kind of magic the soul contract is, more to say that Ying Li, Helena and Becky have become one, but Helena and Becky have independent subjective consciousness, their hearts are linked to each other, in addition, I haven't found anything special, I always feel that such a rare soul contract should not stop there.The group of friends around Ying Li only found out at this time that Ying Li had left their small group unknowingly, and I was chatting happily, so everyone came to our side, I was not the first time to see them, or it can be said that when these people saw me, their expressions did not have any abnormality, obviously they knew my existence.Whatever the purpose, I always smile and respond politely to their greetings.The young magicians got together, even if these people were all the proud sons of the Grimm Empire, the topic of conversation was always too much to let the experience of the holidays, and everyone was very curious about each other's summer vacations, and there were some interesting stories that happened.Some people also looked at me, probably curious about why the magician was wearing a magic pattern costume, and because I didn't know me very well, they couldn't bear to ask.At this moment, a loud voice came from under the giant sculpture in the Municipal Square, like some magic megaphone transmitting the sound to every corner of the square: "Please be quiet, and all the young people present please be careful!"
Please line up, I believe that the self-discipline of your young people is better than that of the upper realm, and everyone is four feet apart, hurry up, children!
”So we followed the voice and began to line up quickly, and Ying Li and I stood in the group of magicians one after the other.After a short period of disorganization, everyone finally found their place, and we stood in a square in a row, like a morning exercise in the academy.The loud voice rang out again: "Well done, then now I announce that the coming-of-age ceremony has begun!"
”"Please join me in vowing to come to adulthood!
