my age of magic

Chapter 545 43. Small island in the middle of the lake
This is a very luxuriously decorated bathroom. On the gorgeous crystal chandelier on the ceiling, bright whale oil scented candles are lit, making the whole bathroom feel like daytime at night.There are arched floor-to-ceiling windows between the stone pillars on the wall, and there are exquisite curtains made of light gauze in front of each window frame. This bathroom room does not have a single window, and the slightly cold lake breeze blows in, making the gauze curtains in front of the windows uneasy. Stop undulating, dancing with the wind.The warm pool water makes me not feel a little bit cold.

There seems to be a flame burning in the chest cavity, which makes the blood in the chest cavity hot and start to boil. Every time my heart beats extremely powerfully, it’s like beating a drum. Come out, the heart beats strongly, the blood in the body is like a runaway wild horse, rushing desperately to all parts of the body in the blood vessels, I can even feel the pulse vibration strongly at the knuckles Every time my heart beats, there are bursts of intense dizziness. I dare not look directly at the dazzlingly beautiful Qige, for fear that I will desecrate the goddess in my heart.

There is only a white jade statue of a lady between us, and I can even hear Qige breathing slightly beside me.

I'm still not used to this change of identity. When I saw Qige again, apart from the inexplicable surprise, all that was left was various childhood memories from the bottom of my heart.

……

These memories brought me back to the past as if all of a sudden:
I was still the little handyman in the caravan who was adopted by the old orcs. I spent all day in the caravan helping the charioteers to wash the Thunder Rhinoceros, brewing the concoction of magic herbs, The team runs errands and delivers messages.At the beginning, the Qige I saw was the little chai girl after the disguise. I naively thought she was a little maid in the dance troupe, and then treated her as a friend, and warmly invited her to eat all kinds of delicacies I made .Later, after the gray dwarves attacked the caravan, I was injured and stayed in a comfortable caravan to recuperate. Only then did I realize that the mysterious little maid turned out to be the seventh girl of the dance troupe. The sudden change of identity made me feel at a loss, but Qige But very proactively said to me: We are all the same kind of people, so we will definitely become good friends.

So we became friends, but at that time, the person closest to me was her personal maid, Katerina. I think that Katerina is just an ordinary maid assigned by Qige to take care of me. Her care, her gentleness, her tragic life experience and feelings have deeply moved me. I enjoy Katerina's meticulous care for me. Thoughtful, but never thought that these are Qige's will, never thought.

Before that, the relationship between me and Qige was very mysterious. I was just a human child adopted by an old orc witch doctor in the caravan. At that time, old Kuru told me that if I returned to human The world, at best, is the status of a vagabond. This status is very humble in human society. It is only a little bit better than a slave. There is not even any personal freedom, and it is subject to various restrictions everywhere. What are the rights of citizens of the empire to speak of.

At that time, I was humble. Old Kuru or Sister Guoguo were thinking about what kind of life I would need in the future. Living silently in the small town for a few years, I became a resident of El City, so that I can become an ordinary citizen and enjoy various benefits of El City citizens, including the most important " Awakening Ritual'.

For Qige, the relationship between me and her became more harmonious and we became truly trustworthy. It was when the caravan arrived at the Yemen town at the northern entrance of the Northfoot Wilderness. At that time, we experienced a Fighting, and then we entered the northern footlands together, and the friendship between us became stronger.There is a huge difference in age and identity between me and Qige, so at that time, I never thought about feelings, at least I didn't have that kind of need in my heart.

Until later when we broke up in Gluding Town, we made various agreements. I promised Qige would come to the capital to find her, but I also promised Sister Guoguo before that I would go back to her city with her and be with her. Living together, Sister Guoguo and I originally planned to run a grocery store with belt buckles in El City. Now my grocery store has opened, but it does not sell the belt buckles that were agreed upon at the beginning.

Even though the relationship between Qige and I has surpassed the boundary of friendship, there is only a little ambiguity between us.

There is a huge gap in identity between us. At that time, I naively thought that as long as I became a magician nobleman, I would be a good match with Qige. I have only taken the first step on the road to their ranks. Among the five strata of the "Gonghou Bozinan" nobles, it is difficult for many nobles to cross one of the steps in their entire lives.

And between Qige and I, after years of tempering, it seems that there is only the agreement that we keep in our hearts.

"I want to be admitted to the Royal Academy of Magic, come to see you in the capital!"

My heart knot seemed to be slowly opened in my heart, and Qige's enthusiasm on the small wooden boat just now was like a key to unlock the lock...

……

Qige's face was as smooth as the bright moon in the night sky. Her beauty made me breathless. Sitting in the pool, my breath had begun to become disordered.

I have heard from my friends more than once that the nobles in the upper class of Green have a very fragrant habit. When many nobles and ladies meet their close friends privately, they choose to be in luxuriously decorated bathrooms. I heard that such a frank meeting, It is easier to see the other person's heart.This kind of meeting certainly shows that the relationship between the two has reached a certain level. If it is not a close relative, then it must be a fiancé, lover, or close friend in the boudoir.

In some aristocratic families, unmarried aristocratic ladies often entertain their close friends here, and those romantic ladies will occasionally entertain their lovers in the bathroom, and even some aristocrats from uncivilized places The hostess of the family will receive the visiting distinguished guests in the bathroom.

Qige looked slightly embarrassed, and stretched out her hand to turn my face away, making me turn my back to her. The handsome maid behind her tried her best to hold back the smile on her face, and looked at me curiously.

"I know you will be able to come." Her voice was gentle and sweet, with inner joy and sweetness.

I can tell it's Chig's gentle hand, and she's wiping a rough linen cloth on my back, where I have a scar from hunting wildlings last winter, He was severely injured after being pursued by a barbarian warrior in a desperate situation.At that time, I was injured very badly. With my strong self-healing ability, the scar on the wound did not disappear completely. The muscles on my back were very strong, and the scar made the skin on my back look ugly. No matter how smooth, her hand ran down this long scar on my back, which made me feel a little itchy.

As if gently stroking my back, her hand stopped at the end of the scar, and asked me distressedly: "Is this left in battle? With your self-healing ability, you can also leave scars on your body." Such a scar? What kind of battle did you go through?"

I turned my back to Qige and told her about my life in the small town, which could distract me a bit, and I didn't want to show my ugly face in front of Qige.

So I began to explain: "In the small town where I live, every winter there are barbarians on the ice and snow tundra, crossing the glacier and going down to hunt miners, so some organizations will be formed spontaneously by the folks there, and I also set up a self-organization. Members of the Falcon Squad, oh, you don’t seem to have seen my tauren squire, there is also a beast female warrior with extraordinary combat skills and a wood magician, we will go out of the city to hunt those Barbarian, you probably don't know how many magic materials a barbarian's left ear can be exchanged for at the Magic Guild, very many!"

I smiled and continued: "This scar was also left when hunting barbarians, but it was a complete accident. God knows that there was a wounded barbarian warrior hiding in that snow cave. Fortunately, he was slightly injured. We can escape under his axe, you know the barbarian warriors? I think their combat power is stronger than the fighters of level [-] and above, hehe, but he eventually fell into our trap and was captured by us gone."

"You should stay in the magic classroom obediently, and there will be soldiers from the North Wind Legion to deal with those barbarians." Qige's tone was a little bit of blame, obviously she thought I shouldn't take the risk of hunting barbarians.

"The knights in the army don't care about our lives!" I inadvertently said a slang dialect in El City, and Qige thought about it carefully before he could discern what I was talking about.

Her hands stopped naturally, and with a 'crash' sound, she seemed to stand up from the pool.

After a pause, Qige said behind me: "Although it's a bit late, but fortunately, I finally arrived in time!"

"..." I actually planned to officially graduate from the War College in El City next year. With my magical talents, I would be admitted to the Royal Academy of Magic in the imperial capital. Now she said that I came a bit late, but for me Speaking of which, it was already a year ahead of schedule.

"Do you remember what you said to me in that restaurant in Gludin Town?" Qiger asked me behind her.

"Of course... I remember." I replied without hesitation, but the last two words were very vague. Speaking of which, I felt a little guilty.

Strictly speaking, the vague relationship with Qige on the Pai Plateau may not be considered a relationship. After all, I was still very young at that time, and Qige was probably very ignorant of the concept of love between men and women at that time. , I even have more friendship with Qige than love.

"I'm engaged!" Qige whispered behind me, with some guilt and self-blame in her tone. At this moment, Qige didn't have her unique waywardness and high spirits. If it wasn't for me, I could clearly distinguish her Voice, I feel that there is another person behind me, how can this still be the Qige who can bravely pursue her ideals and life!

"I know, Prince of Wales, I met you at the institute today." When I said this, my voice was a little sour, but I thought I should speak more freely.

I don't have any complaints or other emotions, I just feel a little lost.

Are you engaged?So, the groom is not me!I shouted in my heart.

But another voice in my heart is also saying: Jijia, haven't you also won Li?If you care about her, you must learn to respect her, and you must send your heartfelt blessings to the life she chooses!

However, I always feel a bit uncomfortable!
"My family forced me, I don't like it." Qige's tone became a little coquettish, and she expressed her attitude.

And after I heard her say this, the dark clouds that had accumulated in my heart seemed to dissipate all of a sudden, and then I saw the bright sunshine like spring, the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.

But I don't know how to answer.

"..."

"I don't care, you have to be responsible for finding a solution!" Qige's willful words seemed to tell me to let me solve the troubles of the Prince of Wales, but also seemed to be on her own, making herself make up her mind.

"..."

I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart, if someone else said it, it's okay to say it, but that is the prince of the Green Empire, the seventh heir in line, he stretched out a finger, and he could crush me to death in minutes!What's more, he is still Yingli's closest brother, I...

"Anyway, I don't care, you have to be responsible for this matter." Qige rarely has such a delicate and naive moment, that kind of deep affection makes my whole person warm.

"...Okay." I suddenly thought of the kiss Qige gave me on the small wooden boat, unable to suppress my feelings... so I said with determination.
