Chapter fifty-ninth will begin

The men in military uniforms were very satisfied with the compromises that Shaoke showed. The bald man in charge stepped forward and respectfully said: "Dear Master, your mother asked us to take you directly to the mage union for rest. I believe you already know about this." After saying that, he looked up slightly at the female mage. He did not want the female mage to reject him, because he was just following the order. If he was rejected, he would not be able to explain to the person who gave him the order.

The female mage gently turned the small staff in her hand, turned her head and looked at Shaoke, and sighed softly: "Well! OK, where are the vehicles you prepared?"

A hint of joy appeared on the old-fashioned face of the bald man, but it quickly disappeared. "Dear Master, please wait, I'll ask the coachman to drive the carriage over." As he said that, a soldier ran to the hotel and began to drive the carriage outside that had been waiting for a long time.

Because the female mage carried a lot of items, she finally used a carriage from the hotel and was ready to set off.

During this period, Shaoke kept staring at the female mage. Finally, when the female mage was about to get on the car, she suddenly pulled off her cloak and said, "Xueye, can't you say something to me?"

Shaoko tightened his cloak, touched the 'spell book' that was exchanged with the female mage on his waist and said, "Francis, the cloak on my body was given to me by your father. I paid a gold coin to get it." After a pause, he continued, "I hope Miss Walton, the most beautiful in my eyes, can be happy."

A layer of blush appeared on the female mage's face, and she covered her cloak and said, "Snowy Night, I will not forget what you said now, but if you cover your cloak, you are not afraid that I will never remember you again? Haha! See you at the Military Department Reporting Office tomorrow." After saying that, after performing the regular mage etiquette, she got into a carriage and left the entrance of the hotel.

Shaoke kept watching the gorgeous carriage carrying the female mage disappearing at the next corner, and then turned around to pack up his belongings. What he didn't know was that just as his carriage passed by the corner, the female mage lifted the curtain and looked here again. When he saw Shaoke turn and leave, he kicked the carriage hard and muttered, "I won't stay for a while."

Shaoke did not rest in this hotel, but paid the coachman a silver coin again and asked them to send him to the place where the mages reported. He did not want to live in this hotel, because this was the imperial capital after all, and the hotel was not suitable for him, a small second-level mage.

When the carriage arrived at the place where the mages needed to report, it was already dark; after Shaoko sent the coachmen back, he brought his salute in with the help of the soldiers on duty outside.

The place where the wizards reported was a very large manor, with all kinds of buildings made of stone, and dozens of tall and sharp houses stood beside the wall. Through the windows above, people could be seen walking from time to time.

The soldiers on duty quickly reported to their commander the arrival of a mage. Shaoko successfully asked the officer to stamp the documents. Then the officer carried a lamp and lit a few soldiers carrying a few salutes. With the illumination of the lanterns by the roadside, he led Shaoko toward the manor. "This mage, I am a small person in charge here, mainly to receive the mages who have just been reported. You can call me Urfat." He nodded when he saw Shaoko and happily introduced the situation to the mage who had just arrived.

"My wizard, if you live here during this period, don't go to the spire beside the walls. There are all high-level wizards in the military headquarters. I heard that they are all seventh-level wizards, and their tempers are more strange than each other." The officer pointed to the stone house on the side of the road and said, "My wizard, there are still many wizards who have just been promoted. If you are interested, you can talk to them. When it comes to meal time, you can pull the bell in the room, and then some servants can deliver food to you. If you like the fun, you can also follow this road and walk forward. There is a large tavern, and many wizards like to have a few drinks."

Shaoke was a little confused. He didn't expect that there were many mages living here here, so he asked: "Urfat, these mages living here are all mages who have just been promoted? Do you have to live here for a long time?"

The officer responsible for receiving the mages said with a little unnatural expression: "Master, in fact, you are the one who has been promoted in recent times, and the rest of the mages have been here for nearly half a year. Generally speaking, the mages who have just been promoted will leave after living here for about three months. At that time, they will be assigned to a new place by the imperial capital." As he said that, he walked to the residence he prepared for the mage and stopped there.

Although Shaoke knew that he had arrived at his residence, he wanted to know more about the officer, so he did not go in immediately. Instead, he stood at the door and asked: "Why are those mages staying here and not leaving? Did the military headquarters not assign them positions?"

The officer looked around and rubbed his hands with a little discomfort and chilling cold, saying, "Master, this is mainly because the mages are not satisfied with the positions assigned to them by the military headquarters, so they hope to wait for a better position here."

Shaoke was very satisfied with the officer's answer, took out a gold coin and handed it to the other party and said, "Thank you! What you said will be of great help to me. Should I go there to report tomorrow?"

The officer hurriedly pushed away the mage's hand and lowered his head, "Dear Master, I can't take your money. You will know these things for a few days." As he said that, he secretly glanced at the corner of his eyes and licked his lips and continued, "I will come here to report you tomorrow morning, please don't worry."

Shaoke handed over the gold coins again, "Check it, it's what you deserve, I'll rest first." The officer couldn't refuse anymore. He took the Jin soldiers and ordered the soldiers to deliver the mage's gift to the house. After they were arranged neatly, he helped to sort it out inside and then took them away.

After Shaoke left, he entered the room and planned to rest for a night. At first he thought the stone house was just a normal room, but after entering, he realized that it was very well decorated; the cold stones were wrapped in a thick layer of birch wood boards, and a thick scarlet wool carpet was laid on the ground, and a wide wooden bed was placed beside the wall, with several quilts on it. Not far from the bed was the burning fireplace, and a small copper pot was also set up on it, which was obviously burning with boiling water. Several smokeless candles as thick as arms were lit on the wall, making the room look very bright.

After checking his luggage, Shaoke sat in a backrest chair in front of the fireplace and stared quietly at the firelight, thinking about some thoughts.

He thought of the female mage who had just parted. He didn't know how the female mage is doing now, whether he had met her mother, and whether he was having dinner with her mother now?

At this moment, the knock on the door interrupted Shaoko's contemplation, "Who?"

A voice outside said, "Master, it's me, Ulfat, the one who led you just now."

Shaoke stood up and opened the door and asked, "Is there anything wrong? Come in and talk."

The officer shook his head and asked, "Master, what dinner do you need? I'll send it to you."

Shaoke shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I don't plan to eat anything. You go back first! I want to rest early." After that, he quietly waited for the officer to leave.

The officer said disappointedly: "Okay, Master Mage, I wish you good night." After saying that, after performing a military manner to Shaoke, he left with a horse lantern.

After the water boiled, Shaoke poured a glass of water and sat in front of the fireplace slowly killing the time. He was very confused now and could not calm down at all. Some scenes of being on the road with the female mage kept appearing in his mind. He just lay on the chair and spent the first night of arriving at the imperial capital with a smile.

In the early morning, Shaoke, who came back from his memories, felt a little tired. Although he was still a little confused, he still sat on the bed and began to slowly calm down and start meditating. He did not want to leave them a bad image after seeing the senior officials here for the first time.

Shaoke, who had just recited magic knowledge for a while, was planning to practice sealing for a while, the wooden door was knocked again, "Master, I'm disturbing you, breakfast is delivered."

Shaoke heard the voice of the officer who received him, so he sorted it out and opened the door to let him in. The officer was followed by a young man with most servants. He was carrying a tray with painted wood and covered with a wooden lid, which seemed to be breakfast.

After the servant put down his breakfast, he turned and went out. The officer lifted the lid on the tray for the mage, "Master, I'll wait outside, and then go to see the real person in charge of this manor together."

Shaoke shook his head, pointed to a chair next to him and said, "You wait here first, it's too cold outside." After that, he sat on the dining table and started breakfast. Although he felt a little hungry, he had no appetite after eating a few bites. So he wiped his mouth with a napkin and started bringing necessary items for the officer to report.

Walking along the path in the manor, many mages of Shaoke were walking hurriedly outside, and some were talking to each other. Shaoke carefully identified the robes on these mages and found that most of the mages here were second-level mages, but some third-level mages appeared here. Although he was a little confused, he knew that now was not a good time to ask, so he temporarily put down this question and followed the officer leading the way ahead.

Along the way, some mages who met two people would always look at Shaoke with a strange look. Occasionally, some mages whispered, "Look! Another new second-level mage is here, haha! Almost none of the mages who have come here will have good luck during this period. I hope this person can have a good position!"

Shaoke carefully observed some of the situation on the road. After turning a few corridors, a wide and pointed stone house appeared in front of him. The officer leading the way pointed to the stone house and said, "Master, this is where the mages reported in this manor. The adults are waiting inside!" After saying that, he looked at the stone house enviously and said, "Master, I can't go to this stone house, you need to go there alone."
