"Don't worry about the details! When are you leaving Gransis, brother? Can you take me with you?"
Haruja whispered to her brother, complaining that she had been harassed by a strange man recently, which was disrupting her daily life. So she decided to temporarily leave the Holy City and go on an adventure with her brother.
My younger sister wants to go to Snowva, the snow-covered city where Philsa once lived, and enroll in the renowned Magic and Martial Arts Academy in the far north of Snowva.
Another reason she envied Philsa was that Philsa had also been a student at this magic and martial arts academy.
"I...I don't plan to go back to the academy." Although he remained expressionless when he politely declined, some memories of his time at the academy still surfaced in his mind.
Not only was the destination not set in Snova, but a more important reason was that Firsa didn't want Haruja to be in danger.
This Silver Knight harbors many secrets connected to the kingdom. It is precisely because of these unspeakable secrets that he attracts enemies like Van, and faces even more unknown dangers.
Philsa didn't want to involve anyone unrelated to the situation.
"It's okay, brother, you can go wherever you want, as long as you take me away from Gransis and that awful person."
Haruja pleaded while trying to be charming.
Playing the innocent is one of the most skillful ways for young girls to win favor.
"Hey, this won't do. Where are your family? How about I take you to them..."
"Has my brother forgotten? I live alone in Gransis."
"Actually, there's a quick way to get to Snova: take a direct magical cruise ship from the West Port..."
"No, no, I hate going on boats! It would be terrible if there was a storm! And no one would be with me."
Seeing her brother's repeated rejections, Haruja's expression darkened, and she lowered her head, suddenly falling silent.
Ultimately, all this girl wanted was for someone to go on an adventure with her; that was all she dreamed of.
Philsa was truly powerless to do anything about it. It wasn't that he was unwilling, but rather that Philsa felt his surroundings had become extremely dangerous.
Unlike Sherry, who is skilled in wind-based magic and martial arts and serves as his assistant, Haruka is just a completely powerless underage girl.
Philsa really didn't want her to get involved in the danger she had created.
If Haruja were to suffer any harm as a result, he would never forgive himself.
He could only sigh as he gazed at Haruja's sullen face.
Just then, there was another knock on the bedroom door.
Sherry entered carrying a simple breakfast on a plate in both hands, and for some reason, she looked somewhat impatient.
“Ah, Shirley…” Philsa secretly cast a pleading look at her.
Shirley understood his meaning, so she casually stared at the ceiling and mumbled, "Huh? Why hasn't Celis come back yet?"
"Ah, right!" he suddenly remembered. "I've been sick lately and my mind isn't working properly. I'm about to head out; I have important business to discuss with a friend. As for your departure, we'll leave it for now. I'll give you an answer before I leave the capital."
Phil the shaman glanced gratefully at his savior, while Shirley smiled sweetly.
"Waaah..." Filled with disappointment, Haruja glanced at Sherry, who had suddenly barged into the room and interrupted their reunion, and muttered in a voice that no one else could hear, "Damn woman!"
-
A few days ago—on the last day of the Water Moon—the Demon Lord awoke. He broke free from the shackles of the Black Demon Sea, escaped the dark prison of the deep sea, and descended back to the world from the top of the Tower of Reversal.
He then awakened six demon generals. Moreover, the demon army that had disappeared after the Northern Expedition also reappeared in response to the monarch's awakening.
The demon army grew stronger and stronger, raising its banners against humanity. Peaceful life was temporarily taken from the common people, and war descended.
The continent of Valentino will soon be engulfed in a bloody storm of fierce confrontation between humans and demons.
The demonic disturbances are gradually increasing. Every day, various guilds are receiving a continuous stream of unfortunate news about demonic attacks from all over the world.
The growing scale of the dark instigation has raised serious concerns among legitimate organizations such as the Knights Guild and the Mage Guild.
Even the Alchemists' Guild, a small local organization that is not often active on the front lines, has started to get busy.
Their task was to transport as many wounded as possible from the vicinity as possible to the guild for treatment, and to transport large quantities of medicine to other locations. For some professions active on the battlefield, getting injured was commonplace.
Philsa Danlithal was one of the wounded on the battlefield against the demon.
However, after careful treatment by the guild's physician, he has fully recovered and is ready to return to the front lines at any time.
That morning, he ran into Seris in the guild hall. The two sat together at a round table by the window and chatted about recent events.
Because the Silver Knights have not yet issued an emergency mobilization order.
Therefore, Seris will be leaving headquarters for a period of time. This trip doesn't have a specific destination; it's simply a journey around the continent of Valentino, his first outdoor adventure after his coming-of-age ceremony.
"Want to come along? My next destination is the former site of the Silver Knights, the palace ruins."
Philsa proposed this.
"No thanks." Unexpectedly, Celis waved her hand, declining her friend's offer. "I was thinking the same thing, but after thinking about it carefully, I'd better not disturb your trip and your time together as a couple with Sherry."
