Blood tax

Chapter 154 She is so beautiful~ Is it your former squadron leader?

The meeting finally came to an end, and Earl Lamor and Griffith stayed to sort out the minutes of the meeting.

The former Xiutoral, who was used to fighting in the office, had helplessness and exhaustion on his face from time to time.He muttered to Griffith, who was sorting the notes, like a first-year boy at Homeworthy:

"What does hidden danger concern them? They'll either go on to be bishops somewhere else, or hide in faraway lands. As for me, I'll die fighting on the steps of the throne, Nolan and I, he Not even a half-team captain's halberd. My Sonia, alas, I must find a good home for her."

Griffith looked at the earl who was talking to himself inexplicably.He's confused by how much of his memory had been wiped by Sidious in the final stages of the meeting.

However, the Earl's expression made him feel that the current situation was really in jeopardy.The Deathrattle Cult has already demonstrated its astonishing strength, planning a terrifying conspiracy in Raven requires so many great figures to deal with it together.

And, it looks like there are plenty of other dangers looming besides the cult.

The powerful psychic energy fluctuations of extraordinary people are easily detected by divination and prophecy, and they are generally not sent out in the first wave.The first batch of forces to deal with a crisis are usually powerful and flexible Sequence 7, Sequence 8 Extraordinary, and even dozens of organized Sequence 9 will have considerable combat effectiveness.This time Raven's mission directly dispatched an extraordinary commando team, which showed that the situation had reached the point of a showdown.

The meeting decided to start deploying relevant forces ahead of schedule, and Griffith would go to Raven as a special investigator to supervise and report on the combat situation of the Extraordinary Commando and investigate the conspiracy of the Deathwhisper cult.

……

The next day was a rest day, and the big shots gathered in Byerland began to leave one by one, and the atmosphere on the campus became more relaxed.

Griffith searched the local archives area of ​​the library very seriously, looking for some information about Raven.

Around the main castle of Homemonwarts, there are six mage towers built of huge gray stones.Most of these war-time ancient towers are now the offices and research rooms of professors and high-ranking wizards, and some are student libraries.

On the "Silver Moon Tower" closest to the east, there is a spacious and comfortable library, which is a good place for self-study.

Passing through the spiral upward steps, the first to third floors of the Silver Moon Tower are all desks and stacked bookshelves for the students.The middle of the second and third floors is hollowed out, making the library look spacious and bright.

The comfortable seats in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the side of the fjord on the second floor are generally reserved for girls, while boys will be pushed to seats closer to the inner side.

Since Galadia and Sonia especially like to read books or play chess here, Griffith often comes to the inside of the third floor of the Silver Moon Tower.This seat has a view of the girls in the window seat downstairs, but no view of the fjord.In a hidden corner, the suppressed cheers of the wise King of Mysteries players could still be heard.

Above his head is the forbidden book area on the fourth floor that is generally not open to the public.Griffith only occasionally sees licensed professors and seniors come down from there.

After experiencing a series of events and seeing many monsters, Griffith found that he seemed to have begun to understand and accept the knowledge of occultism.When he returned from the mission in Verona and came to the Silver Moon Tower again, he seemed to hear some strange voices, as if someone was calling him, but he couldn't hear it clearly.

This strange sound seemed to come from the restricted area. When Griffith looked there, he noticed a senior student there.Her appearance was amazing, and her extremely beautiful black hair fell like a waterfall to her bare white ankles, flowing with a suffocating sense of pure beauty.She has a gentle temperament that people can't help but want to get close to, but it is ethereal and illusory, and people can't help but want to know her and explore her secrets.

Griffith always felt like he had something to do with her.

At this moment, the senior sister upstairs cast her gaze over.She was watching Griffith, eyes ethereal and distant.

She just quietly looked at Griffith downstairs, as if she wanted to see through his heart.After a while, she walked away.

Griffith suddenly felt an unspeakable sense of loss.At the same time, the "Potion Preparation Notes" that he habitually carried around his body began to heat up slightly.He hastily took it out, terrified.

The author of this thing may be, it may be, hey, it may be someone whose name I don't know.

I just take a look!This is the school, and less than 200 meters away from me is the most powerful wizard in the world.Well, nothing to be afraid of.

Griffith opened the notes and found that there were many more recipes for potions, and they were all marked with secondary potions, which would be easier to configure and cheaper.

"Secondary confusion potion. It can cause a significant reduction in hit rate and wrong spellcasting effects on enemies within a certain range. Disadvantage: no distinction between friend and foe."

"Secondary Fascination Potion. Let the drug taker become irresistibly obsessed with you. Disadvantage: May malfunction and irritate the other party."

"The dust of the secondary development. The thing that the Assassin Path Extraordinary hates the most. Disadvantage: no distinction between friend and foe."

"Secondary Potent Vitality Potion. It is more energetic than Vitality Potion and effectively restores mental power. Disadvantage: Highly addictive."

"Less Potent Health Potion. Expensive but powerful healing potion that can even regenerate severed limbs. Remarks: Only tested on animals, please consult your family magician before taking it."

So many good things!Griffith was instantly hooked.

The dense records filled several pages, and below the introduction were optimized and improved materials and preparation methods, which looked very attractive.

After this there is a mysterious narrative.

The author of this note is clearly a big shot, but the narrative is weird.

Moreover, the records presented this time are higher than the content pages and sorts previously presented to Griffith.

【Undated Diary No. [-]】

"I've heard what happened to Miss Iletia, the daughter of Professor Tyburion. The tragic experience of this girl I've never met keeps me up at night, and anger is my only emotion.

"As a true gentleman, I must act. Although I have not yet had the honor to know Miss Elidia, my sense of duty drives me.

"Those detestable criminals will be punished. I take the strongest wand, divination staff, invisibility cloak, strong shield bracer and pendant, and I am armed from top to bottom.

"If the professor doesn't act, then I will act, I have no scruples.

"My divination went very well, and I successfully pointed to the location of Miss Iletia, and soon, I will find her place of detention.

"I sincerely pray to the Goddess of the Night, begging her to protect Miss Elidia from being harmed."

[Undated Diary Part [-]]

"I crushed the resistance of the mob.

"I curse them, tear them apart, these disgusting worms, vile criminals, their crimes against Iletia are unforgivable, I will tear them apart with the fire of hell, I will make them regret their lives!
"Yeah, I could turn them into something like that to serve life in hard labor, worthy of their disgust and scum."

【Undated Diary Part [-]】

"Miss Elitia is still alive, yes, it must be.

"I can feel her longing for life, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, I will try hard.

"The treatment plans have all failed, and I can't wait for the professor's support.

"This is the oracle of Iluvash. I am destined to appear here to save Iletia!"

[Undated Diary Part [-]]

"Help! What is that? What have I done? Someone help me!
"My head hurts so much, Goddess of the Night, help me, what did I see? I want, I want to draw the image of that thing, this horror..."

【Undated Diary No. [-]】

"Hey, I survived.

"The professor found me and took me back to Homewarts. None of us want to talk about that day again."

【Undated Diary No. [-]】

"Night is upon us!
"Iletia is safe and sound, she said to me with a smile, how did a little double charm trick the most powerful young wizard in Homonwatts?

"Ashamed, ashamed, it seems that my talent is still a level behind hers!

"My life has never been so full and happy as it is now. Miss Iletia is so pure and beautiful, with cascading black hair, pure eyes, and her smile is like a lily. My poor words cannot describe her beauty.

"She's been taking care of me these days and I'm perfectly fine!
"After repeated thinking and weighing, I decided to lie down for another two days."

【Undated Diary No. [-]】

"Professor Tyburion still doesn't want to mention what happened that day. Didn't I just tear up a few thugs? It doesn't hurt that Miss Eletia is safe and sound.

"Forget it, this way the authorities won't trouble me."

[Undated Diary Part [-]]

"It's been a while since I've known Miss Iletia.

"She was beautiful and mysterious. It was this mysterious beauty that captivated me. For someone who was destined to become a big name in the mysterious world, I couldn't be more fascinated by her.

"There are many well-known ladies around me, and several of them are suitable to develop into lifelong partners. However, I always feel that they are dull and completely incomparable with Iletia.

"My classmates don't dare to mention Miss Elidia's name, haha, I know that a beautiful goddess will make people like this, and I was too shy to talk to her for a while!"

At the end of this text, there is a completely different style of handwriting, which seems to have been added many years later:

"I want to see Iletia again. I would give everything for her."

……

After reading the notes that emerged, Griffith felt complicated and wanted to laugh.

I always feel, um, how should I put it... This supreme being who is most likely to have been exterminated from the record is like a feral cat in heat like me!Hehe, I feel that I am not so afraid of Him anymore.

Although I don’t know his real name, if one day he wants to hurt me, I will take this record out.Even gods should be ashamed!Ha ha ha ha!
"What's wrong with you? Why are you giggling here alone?"

At this time, Galadia walked through the bookshelf as high as a canyon and quietly came to Griffith's side.The sea breeze in this season still has a hint of coolness. She is wearing a red robe, standing tall like a bouquet of roses, her long black hair is draped softly behind her back, and she is holding a book in front of her chest.After being promoted to Sequence 7, she is still elegant and flexible with a bit of intimacy in her daily life.

Holding the thick textbook, she panted lightly, as if her heart would jump out.

I haven't seen you for a few days, and today all the big shots have left, and Galadia actually took the initiative to talk to me!Griffith was overjoyed.

"Ah, Galadia! With today's weather, the birth rate of the elves has dropped again this year, isn't it?"

The two of them were between the dimly lit bookshelves, with no one around, as if they were about to do something bad, or could do something bad.

The elf smiled and gave him a blank look, and circled among the bookshelves:

"My brother has been staring at me recently and forbids me to go out to play. Every day is training, reading, and meditating.
"These books, hey, local chronicles and customs of the eastern provinces. When did you develop such a lonely hobby?"

Didn't you also come to this bookshelf?Griffith muttered in his heart.

"I'm going to Raven once, for a week," Griffith said briefly, and immediately realized that this was not good, and immediately added, "I'll be back soon."

"Going out again! You have only been back for a few days? How can you look like this!"

Miss Elf's pointed ears pricked up, she hugged her book and whispered to Griffith beside her:

"This is the Higher Academy of Magic! Shouldn't the orthodox route be research and achievements in learning to make this world a better place? How do you know how to fight and kill!
"Even if you are a non-magic student, you should rely on professional knowledge, academic papers, and research results after four or five years of research and study to grow into a senior military officer, archaeologist, alchemist, or engineer.

"As an academic institution, it puts so much emphasis on combat effectiveness. It is always sent out to perform missions, participate in camping, and fight everywhere. Where is the danger? It is said that next school year will set up a ring in the hall of study for everyone to fight each other. Victory Those who reward the potion to help them get promoted, and they even named it a grade competition or something, it's so gentle!"

Griffith smiled as the elf complained.Even if it is complaining, a nice voice is as pleasant as a singing voice.He even hoped that the complaining would not stop.

"So, are you also dangerous on your mission this time?" Galadia sighed, "Who will go with you?"

"It's okay, it's not that dangerous. There is an extraordinary commando team. I am mainly in charge of intelligence and staff work," Griffith said, skipping the assessment of danger, "Hmph, my grades in these courses That's good, the higher-ups should also realize that I'm a good staff officer and logistics officer, and I'm not for the battle."

"Which time were you not sent to the battle! Verona also performed the central breakthrough by himself, a little self-conscious!" The elf snatched the mission briefing from him, read the mission summary, and turned to the page of the extraordinary commando , "The Extraordinary Commando is settled now? Ouch, the Word Bearers, the elves are scared to death. This lineup is really luxurious, don't you want to fight against evil gods? Peepers, Hunters, and... "

The elf's fingers suddenly stiffened.

Griffith shuddered, suddenly realized something was wrong, and hurriedly looked over.

Galadia's gaze was still on the information of Sequence 6 Light and Shadow Front Erza Valkyrie.

"She was your former squadron leader, right?"

"Yes."

Galadia closed the notepad and took out a crystal. Soon, the crystal burst into light, and immediately projected the full-body image of this extraordinary lady.The moment he saw the heroic red-haired huntress, the elf couldn't help exclaiming:
"She is so beautiful~"

"..."

It's over, although I don't know what's going on, but I think the big thing is not good!Griffith started to sweat.

Galadia withdrew her gaze from the crystal, raised her head, and stared at Griffith with deep eyes.

"Have you not seen each other for a long time?"

"Half a year."

"Miss her?"

"What are you talking about!" Griffith yelled, "She's my squadron leader."

"23 years old. Can you become an officer and a transcendent person at the age of 23?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?" Griffith yelled, "I'm going to be an officer too! By the way, Galadia, I'm already the captain of the Reserve Assault Squadron!"

"Strong, mature, and beautiful officer sister, there is no problem with the age gap..." the elf said quietly.

"Slow down!" Griffith hurriedly interrupted her wild thoughts, "What are you trying to say? She is a very serious and responsible commander!"

"Tsk, she still has the attributes of a wife," Galadia seemed to want to understand all his little thoughts, "Do you like her?"

"Uh, no! Hmph, how is it possible," Griffith waved his hand forcefully, "It's absolutely impossible."

"You are a big turnip!" The elf's slender eyebrows were about to twitch together, "That girl named Krista is fine, the officer's sister is also a big beauty! You don't want to study hard every day, and you just want to be with me." Other women go out. Why are you doing this!"

Galadia hugged the book, turned her head away angrily like a boiling kettle, and did not give Griffith, who was caught off guard, a chance to explain.
