"By the way, can you find Mi'er?" Sean, who was eating porridge, suddenly asked.
Illya, who was standing nearby, was stunned for a moment, with a "Thinking!" sign on her head, probably wondering who Mier was.
"Is the person your highness is talking about the one who planted trees in the back garden last time?"
It has been a long time since then, and Illya has been staying in the palace all the time, so she probably isn't familiar with the name Mirko. Even when Sean mentioned planting trees, she didn't remember it. Finally, she pointed to the backyard outside the window and remembered.
Before, Mier gave herself a seed and planted it in the garden, so that she could split it according to the tree species here... It can be regarded as a kind of witch ability of hers.
Quite special!
"Wasn't Your Highness able to communicate with her from the saplings before? Now they are all grown!"
Illya's words reminded Sean that he had relied on this big tree with lush branches and leaves to transmit messages before, and he wondered if it still worked now.
"Your Highness, please eat first and then go check it out later... Or can you tell me how to do it?"
Illya didn't know magic, she only asked because she had seen Sean do it before. As a palace maid, she didn't dare to ask anything else.
"Then wait a moment!" Sean said lightly.
While eating, some other palace maids came in. Their job was mainly to clean the house. Even when Sean was not there, they would still insist on cleaning every room every day... Their lives seemed quite monotonous and a bit pitiful.
But it was during a previous conversation between Illya and Sean that he realized that this kind of job was actually quite good, and very good.
There wasn't much to do in the palace, so a little careful cleaning like this could kill most of the day, especially when no one was in the bedroom.
It's just like those soldiers on guard duty. After getting used to it, they become numb and just have to pass the time... The palace maids also have a little salary and can leave as long as they arrive at the agreed time.
Their jobs are quite easy compared to those waiters in the bars outside.
On the contrary, the identity of someone like Illya is somewhat special. She was originally bought and may stay here for the rest of her life. Of course, if the work is good, the master will also agree to the marriage between servants, and then she will gradually become the master's trusted servant!
You can start a family, build a career, and raise children anywhere in this world, so it doesn't matter where you are. Instead of being a family living in fear and helpless outside, it is better to rely on a big force and live a good life... Illya knew her future fate from the moment she was bought.
So he was very serious when serving Prince Sean with food and accommodation!
After eating breakfast porridge.
It might be too late, and Frelia hasn't come back yet.
Sean went to the window alone to look at the tree seeds he had planted using the seeds from Mirko's body.
To be honest, this is a magic tree. The branches are twisted in an exaggerated way and there are only a few leaves on the branches. I even saw Mier use it to enter the palace from outside, avoiding the surveillance magic of all the court wizards.
Her identity had not been made public then, but now that it is, there is certainly no need for this method.
Sean grabbed a twisted branch and injected a little magic into it.
The name of this thing appeared in my field of vision [Witch Forest~]
This thing really does have magical effects.
Just activate it and you can use it!
"Sean..."
Just then Frelia's voice came from behind.
"What are you doing?"
"Find Mi'erke and Lucille. They disappeared for a night and I want to do something with them." I felt like being lazy before because I didn't wake up, but now that I'm awake, I have to do what I need to do.
Frelia didn't continue asking questions, but walked gently to Sean's side and looked at the strange branch.
"Is this...Milk's magic?"
"That's probably the case. The witch's magic form is very special. It was originally used to transmit messages. Occasionally, she would use this magic to travel to places inside and outside the imperial city." Sean explained.
"I've heard my instructor talk about this kind of magic before, but I didn't expect to see it today!"
If you think about it carefully, Mierke is at level 17 of the Orderer, while Frelia is only about to reach level 13 of the Orderer. In comparison, she can indeed be regarded as her mentor, and she is old enough and has enough experience!
Um?
Suddenly, Sean felt like he was onto something.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
"Leah, is your level going to increase?" I didn't notice it when I wasn't paying attention, but now the opponent's health is close to that of the Orderer at level 13, just a little bit short!
"Can you tell? Actually, I do feel like I've gotten more comfortable using magic lately. I think it's improved a little bit, but it's not noticeable unless you pay close attention. So I have to practice harder."
This was probably why Frelia had gotten up early today and even dragged herself up to work.
Just as the two were chatting, a response came from the magical vines...
A flower inexplicably bloomed from the center of the branch, and then withered in an instant.
Sean stared at the scene.
I don’t understand!
However, it didn't take long before Mi'erke ran out of her palace.
"Your Highness, are you calling me?"
"How can you run so fast..." I had just started using it when the other party came.
"I was going to come over to pay my respects to you today, but I happened to sense the power of this magical vine, so I came right away."
"I see... What about Lucille?"
Speaking of Lucille's name, the old witch was obviously unhappy, but she didn't show it on her face, only her head was in a state of displeasure.
"I was just about to report to His Royal Highness the Prince that Witch Lucille might not be able to become the court wizard!"
"Oh, why?"
That guy probably didn't want to be a court wizard at all, but Sean wanted to ask him if he was up to something weird again.
"She is indeed very powerful, but some court wizards have heard of her past deeds and think that becoming a court wizard means entering the highest honor team in this country. Her deeds will be praised by people. If they knew about her past, they would definitely talk about her." Mi'er was still a little angry when she said this.
"I think they said that on purpose. I didn't expect that after all these years, this xenophobic atmosphere among the court wizards is still so serious!"
Sean didn't expect that Mi'er was not angry at Lucille herself, but at the attitude of the palace wizard towards her.
"Lucille's views on magic are very unique, almost different from those of many court wizards. I think they say this just to avoid being excluded." Then Mierke recounted what had happened between the two of them from last night until now.
