"Who?!!" Sean deliberately raised his head and grabbed the other person's hand.

"Okay, you can't even recognize my voice." Igunya let go of the hand that was covering Sean's eyes and stood aside with an unhappy look on her face.

But he didn't let go of his hand, letting Sean keep pulling...

"Oh~ What a pity. Someone didn't even come to see me off when I left, and he didn't even write me a letter after all this time..."

"I didn't write it anywhere. Go back... go back and look through your desks to see if there is any letter from me." Igunya simply jumped behind Sean and did something naughty.

He pinched my neck but didn't use much strength.

But it made the other person speechless, and his sitting body was knocked down...

"oops."

It's dark~

There were a lot of stars, and Igonia's face under the red tall hat, with her hair hanging down almost covering Sean's eyes.

Tonight the little girl changed into her favorite pink wizard robe, with her arms exposed and a wizard hat, just like she looked when Sean first met her.

Because it was a wizard robe, and she was wearing a thin, tight-fitting dress underneath, and Igonia liked to wear skirts. So Sean fell down and leaned on her legs...

Pull the hair aside slightly so that you can see the other person's eyes.

"How have you been lately?"

"It's okay, you don't come to see me!" There was a hint of complaint in his voice.

"It seems like you said your mentor is back, so you can't reply for the time being." Sean said.

The two did exchange letters during the period when they first arrived in Oro City, talking about trivial matters and daily life, and occasionally mentioning things in their original town.

But later on, Sean discovered that the letter seemed to have been tampered with. There was a magic to check the letter in the magic book left by Lucille. A quick look revealed a lot of fingerprints on the letter. It was probably Warren or Count Hamilton... and at the end, Ignia said that her mentor Ash had returned and might have to go into seclusion for a while. It was from then on that the two of them stopped communicating.

"Then you didn't write to me when the Northern War started." Igunya was still a little unhappy.

"Haven't you heard about what happened to me?"

Sean really wanted to live a life of feasting and revelry, but the Northern War hadn't even started when the revolutionary army's assassination squad rushed to his doorstep. After that, the battle of wits and courage with the revolutionary army continued until the snow season, and soon there was another threat from the border.

If reality were a game, I would probably have reached the maximum level by now!

There is almost no free time, either governing or fighting...

"That……"

Igunya did hear what happened to Sean, and for a moment she wanted to say something but found that she really didn't know how to say it.

Sean smiled, gently grabbed her hair, and slowly moved it up to her cheek.

I turned my head slightly and a strong floral scent came into my nose.

Ignia must have just put it on. When they met during the day, the scent wasn't so strong...

"Then I heard that you were assassinated by the rebels before?"

"Yeah," Sean replied.

"So what happened next?"

"I killed two of the gang members, and later three were captured. However, they escaped from prison again during the subsequent encirclement and suppression..." Recalling what happened that night.

In reality, Sean didn't feel particularly threatened that night. The real danger came during that moment in the mountains. If he hadn't entered the distorted plane and summoned the Lord of Time, that would have been his last day on earth. The subsequent battlefield, while thrilling, Sean devised various strategies to cope.

It's just that the first method just happened to put them out.

At that time, I thought that if I was still alive, I would fight in other ways...

"Did they finally catch them?"

"In the following battles, we did wipe out quite a few rebels. Because there were so many people, I also noticed that some of them died in there. They must have died in battle." Sean really didn't know who the assassination teams were, but later when he saw the situation of their camp, he guessed that they had been killed by their great alchemist.

"You called me here today just to say this?" Sean looked at the other person with a smile.

Even without looking up, her shy expression was clearly visible...

Sean could tell that Igunya liked him, or at least had a crush on him. However, because she was still young, not even eighteen years old, she was always shy about expressing her feelings, and her face would naturally blush when she talked to him.

"By the way, Sean. Why did you come here suddenly?" After Sean's dirty hands wandered around her neck, Igunya finally couldn't help but turn the question to what she wanted to ask tonight.

"Don't you know? All the southern lords have invited us to come to the imperial capital to plead for mercy. This place was organized by Marquis Spinola to unite the southern nobles."

Thinking back to what I heard at the meeting during the day, it is not difficult to imagine the purpose of staying here.

"The money the empire is asking for this time is indeed too much."

"What? You can't even take out the city of Koga?" In Sean's opinion, the city of Koga is a city with a history.

This city existed as early as the generation of my ancestors. With the accumulation of so many generations, it shouldn’t be possible that they can’t come up with this little money.

"Count Hamilton has been spending money everywhere over the years. Before the war with the Borg, a lot of new things were built in Koga City. During the war, a lot of supplies were continuously sent to the front line. Part of the Black Feather Knights also followed their mentor to the front line. How can there be so much money now?" said Igonia.

It seems that even if you have money, you can't save it and you will still spend it.

Okay~

"It seems that this time we can only wait for all the southern nobles to arrive in the imperial capital to get results, but I think King Simon wants us to do this..."

"Why?"

"Because we can do it for Jagun's army to see," Sean said.

My guess has not changed from the beginning to now. I still think that King Simon deliberately set up a dragon gate formation with the purpose of getting all the southern nobles to go to the imperial capital.

"Speaking of the Sun King's army, do you still remember what happened at your family, Sean... About your mother's Sun Crown Wizard Organization, I asked him some questions after the mentor came back." Speaking of his family, Sean looked at Igonia again.

"What's the problem?"

"My mentor told me that the Sun Crown organization originally originated in Jagun, so that's how the organization got its name. But later it split up and ended up in many countries... The description we saw at the time was incomplete, and that was more than 20 years ago," said Igunya.
