The magic changes

Chapter 14 The Adventurers

This big mountain is not dangerous, but the trees are very abundant, the lush shrubs cover the only path so much that it is almost impossible to find a place to step down, Ron and his team found a relatively flat ground to rest, the horses also stayed aside powerlessly after a long sprint.

　　Everyone in Grant's squad was now looking at Ron with reverence, under Ron's leadership none of their personnel had been injured, it was Ron himself who was in the worst condition, he was already tired and out of breath, he normally exercised little, now after such a long run and having climbed a mountain for so long he felt like he was about to get out of breath.

　　"You can forgive me for my ignorance yesterday as well as my rudeness, but I myself can't forgive myself for my arrogance, you are a noble magician and I asked you to follow us riding as well as sprinting, not only did you not mind but you helped us out of our predicament, I really don't know how to express my apology", Grant has been going up the mountain since he has been nagging at Ron, and was still explaining until he rested now.

　　Receiving the roasted meat from one knight and the broth from another, Ron smiled and replied, "I've already said it many times, you're the commander of this operation, it's my duty to follow your orders, you don't need to explain anything to me, Grant, what I'm most interested in right now is that I'd like to know how much further we have to go before we reach Clarion City ".

　　"After crossing this mountain we will reach the southern fortress of Clarion City, tonight we can rest at the fortress for the night, tomorrow we will be able to make it to Clarion City", Grant was now immensely respectful to Ron, he was very much enjoying the fact that he could sit down and talk with a powerful magician.

　　After this breakout battle, Grant as well as everyone in the squad took very good care of Ron, fearing that he would be too tired from riding his horse, he changed him to the smoothest horse, after arriving at the southern fortress, he directly found a carriage for Ron to sit in, and the group rushed to Clarion City on the next day.

　　Ron and Grant together met with Grand Duke Sofus and handed over the general's letterhead, Grand Duke Sofus was dressed in military attire, probably because the situation in the empire was bothering him, the current Grand Duke looked slightly haggard, after he read the letterhead, he said: ''I already know about the situation there in Altaï, according to the letter's requirements, you guys have to stay in Clar City, I will issue an aid today Altaic City's order, it is estimated that the legion will be able to leave tomorrow, you guys go and rest first."

　　---------- ---------- ---------- ----------

　　Grant this squad was arranged in Grand Duke Sofus' close guard battalion, while Ron was arranged to stay in Clarion City's Wizard Guild due to his status as a wizard, due to not belonging to Clarion City's establishment, Grant was very free, he came to find Ron every day for the past few days, while most of the great wizards in the Wizard Guild had already gone to Altai City to assist with the defenses, so Ron had no one to control him right now, so naturally he was with Grant stunk, hanging out in Clarion City every day.

　　Although the current situation on the continent was chaotic, it didn't affect Clarion City, under the governance of the Grand Duke, Clarion City was exceptionally prosperous, completely free of the shadow of war.

　　In a tavern in the south of the city, Ron and Grant had already stayed for an hour and still hadn't inquired about the latest news of Altai City, Grant was flirting with one of the tavern's hostesses while Ron was pinching a very small ball of energy that was constantly changing colors and playing with it with his right thumb and middle finger.

　　"I told you we couldn't stay in Altai anymore, see, if we hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, we wouldn't be able to get out now, right?", a voice came in before four people appeared in front of the tavern door, one of them continued, "Rag, now you're convinced of my arrangement, aren't you? "?

　　"In fact, even if we don't drive out the encirclement of Rio's army early, with my ability, I can still protect a few of you to come to Clarion City, I think that when my companion and I took on that bipedal flying dragon back in those years, the situation could have been much more crisis than yesterday, if it wasn't for me ......" Bearded Lager's cowhide has not yet finished blowing, the little girl next to him interrupted him: "Well, well, I really feel sad for that poor bipedal flying dragon, it has been dead for so many years, and the murderer who kills it still has to curse on it several times a day, let's find a place to sit down first".

　　These few people Ron recognized three of them, it was the same few adventurers that he met in the tavern in Lil Feis town, after these few people sat down, Ron stood up and walked over, politely greeted with them, "A few brave adventurers, may I ask how is the situation in Altaic city now, my friends are there, I am very concerned about the situation there, can you tell me? "?

　　The bearded man stared at Ron, feeling a bit familiar, "I remember like I've seen you somewhere, oh yeah! In the tavern in the town of Lirfis, you and your companion even asked us questions".

　　The little girl then stared at Ron's right hand where his fingers were flipping, that tiny ball of energy was rolling flexibly under his fingers, "Leo's army has now surrounded Altai city, if it wasn't for the increase of seventy thousand reinforcements in Altai city a few days ago, it is estimated that the city would have changed its position by now, but it's impossible to say now, it might be hard for Leo's army to capture Altai because I heard that Lance city's Grand Magician Lake has already arrived there, together with the seventy thousand reinforcements, the force defending the city is enough."

　　The little girl spoke very clearly, and Ron couldn't help but take a closer look at her: she looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old, a pair of luscious blue eyes, blonde hair that was tied into a braid then tied the end of the braid at the root, and was wearing a light blue armor that was often worn by adventurers, which accentuated her wonderful figure, and a thin sword was hanging at her waist.

　　"Thank you very much for telling me about it, my name is Ron, and it is a pleasure to meet you beautiful lady", Ron thanked the little girl.

　　"You are a wizard aren't you? Although it's very presumptuous, I would also like to ask you if you can do us a favor"? The little girl looked at Ron expectantly.

　　"I'm just a small magician, my ability may disappoint you, but I would like to hear exactly what is it that I need to serve first", Ron wouldn't dare to promise someone something rashly, he had to ask what it was first.

　　Grant from somewhere stretched his head over, as if he saw something very strange: "You're still just a small magician? God! Then to hell with those guys who call themselves big wizards."

　　Ron stopped flipping the fingers of his right hand and pinched the ball of energy, with a soft "pop" sound, the ball of energy disappeared: "Tell me, what's the matter"?
