Griffith's room is in the highest attic of the Earl's Palace. It is a small bedroom with only a bed, a table, and a chair. Outside the window is the sloping roof and the garden in the inner courtyard. His luggage and weapons have been sent here, stuffed in
In the space under the bed.
"Huh~"
The trainee knight, who had climbed the stairs to digest some food, collapsed on the bed as soon as he entered the room. After the sound of horse hooves from the guests in the courtyard faded away, the silver moonlight shone on the white bed, and it was so quiet that no sound could be heard.
After leaving the bustling military camp, Griffith has been traveling with Galadia. It has been an unknown amount of time since he enjoyed a room quietly by himself like this.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Griffith's mind.
Ah, the other guests didn't finish every piece of food, they only ate a little bit! Griffith suddenly realized something was wrong. Is this the etiquette at the table?
Then wouldn't it be silly of me to eat all the food? Why didn't anyone remind me... It would be such a waste not to eat such a delicious dinner. Oops, I'm so bloated that I can't sleep!
Griffith rolled on the bed, got dressed again and went downstairs to see if he could find a broom to clean the room and digest it.
The deep mansion made it difficult to see the direction. After a few turns, Griffith lost his way and stood blankly in front of the door. There were beautiful small letters engraved on the door.
library.
Carefully opening the door, the trainee knight discovered that the collection of books in the Earl's Palace was extremely amazing. The huge double-layered library was lined with bookshelves, and there were sliding ladders and rails for easy access.
Griffith trembled with excitement. It doesn't cost money to read these books! He stroked the exquisite cover and walked slowly, and for a moment he didn't know which one to read.
Suddenly, a black shadow squirmed near the desk not far away and turned into a human form.
Mutated creatures!
Griffith had never thought that a monster parasitic in the shadows would appear in the Earl's Mansion. He was so shocked that his heart stopped for two seconds, and his hand immediately pressed on the sword.
As the black shadow slowly unfolded, a pale and handsome face appeared.
At this time, Griffith saw clearly that there was only a young man about his own age lying next to the desk. He was dressed in black, and the candle at his hand was extinguished. He looked as quiet as a piece of wood.
"Good evening," the trainee knight said hoarsely, "I am Griffith Blanton, second-level squad leader, Shutoral of the Earl's Palace."
"Well, good evening, Mr. Apprentice Knight," the young man in the shadow slowly stood up and looked at Griffith, "I am Armance Sauron from the Abbey of Truth, a trainee monk."
People from the Holy Light Church! Griffith immediately relaxed. Many novice monks and nuns from the Holy Light Church are serving in the army and are his good friends.
The young boy in front of him was frighteningly pale. He didn't know if it was due to poor diet or rest, but he felt like he was going to get seriously ill at any time. By the way, the same was true for Krista. There was a trace of persistent will and emotion in her frailty.
The rich eyes wander between melancholy and determination, which is particularly endearing.
Sauron wore black clothes just like Griffith, but he was more plain, without even the patterns and lines of the pendant. When he curled up into a ball, he was really a ball of darkness.
"What are you doing here?" Griffith glanced at the books spread out on the table, "Homework?"
"Yes, I work as the Earl's secretary during the day, and I have to catch up on my classes at night," Sauron replied, with a somewhat cold and arrogant tone.
However, his eyes did not leave Griffith's straight coat, the sword on his waist and the boots on his feet. Although his eyes were calm, his persistent gaze made people feel very fiery.
"Are you coming back from the front line?" Sauron asked, "Are you an armored cavalry?"
"Yes~" Griffith nodded, "There is also a monk like you in our regiment. He is a good friend of mine. Have you ever served in the army?"
"No."
This was just a casual question. The trainee monk Sauron is very tall, but quite thin. His face, which is fairer than that of a girl, makes people worry that he will faint suddenly.
However, he is really handsome, and his eyes are very beautiful, well, the kind of beauty that fits the aesthetics of a big city... Griffith unconsciously turned his head and looked at his own shadow on the window. The hard edges and corners were like a piece of hard stone.
The bang bang stones and the whole body have a rustic temperament.
"Are Shutoral interested in mysticism?" Sauron stared at the trainee knight's sword and boots as he spoke. Hands almost appeared in his eyes, and he said in a jittery voice like a clockwork toy.
, "If you are preparing for classes at Homemon Watts, I can recommend a book list to you."
"Thank you so much!"
Griffith was immediately attracted when he saw the novice monks taking down the hardcover books and pamphlets from the bookshelf. These books and documents recorded the establishment of Beyeland, the origin and modern history of the Larmore family, magic and
Extraordinary characteristics and general knowledge are all good things that he has never seen before.
The trainee knight immediately took off his sword and put it on the table, picked up a pamphlet and started reading.
This is a quarterly publication that records Beyeland’s black market and underground transactions...
On Tasok Street in Lower Bayerland, hundreds of years of garbage and corpses are entangled under the dirt and gravel. Diseases and evils breed in the unknown land. Because the evil spirits of chaos linger there, detection and
The effectiveness of the tracking spell was greatly affected, and the long street in the south of the city became a haven for smugglers and cultists.
Large quantities of contraband from the East and South are being traded there.
Seeing this, Griffith's mind couldn't help but move.
Magic items are easily disrupted by fluctuations in blood and evil spirits on the battlefield where large armies are fighting, forming unreliable energy, but they are extremely effective in small-scale battles. Even the shield formed by a weak mage waving a wand can
Can block Griffith's attacks in one-on-one combat.
Whenever he thinks of this, Griffith wants to buy himself some magic items.
However, the production and trade of these good things need to be registered, and they are exclusively for use by nobles and some extraordinary people. As Griffith's identity, most types of items are illegal to even possess. If you want to buy them
You can only start from the black market.
Griffith quickly scanned the information on Tasok Street, put the pamphlet aside, and took out a book on the modern history of occultism.
It contains precious knowledge of several extraordinary paths.
Griffith opened the path to the Spellbreaker that he was most concerned about, and found that there was still only incomplete information there.
"Spell Breaker Path Sequence 9, titled 'Recruit'. Extraordinaries in this sequence can obtain promotion opportunities through long-term physical training, and necessary grammar and mathematics knowledge are also essential. Once they become Extraordinary, 'Recruits' can obtain
A strong body and good strength, agility, and endurance can drive some of the mental power of magic items. 'Recruits' can choose to be irreversibly promoted to three paths: spellbreaker, paladin, and demon hunter."
This is Griffith's state. After spending two years on the battlefield, official identification believes that he is irreversibly developing towards the next sequence of spellbreakers. Unlike Paladins and Demon Hunters, the spellbreaker path
The high-sequence knowledge has been lost over the years. If no measures are taken, Griffith is likely to stop at Sequence 7.
"Sequence 8 'Obstacle Breaker', Extraordinaries of this sequence can weaken the magical effects that directly act on the body, and have a certain chance of breaking through illusions, resisting fear, charm and other mental spells. In addition, Extraordinaries can
During the promotion process, you may master one or two different extraordinary abilities."
"Sequence 7 'Spellbreaker' is the highest sequence of the known spellbreaker paths. Extraordinaries have a strong ability to resist direct magic, and can cause significant interference to close spellcasting activities. They cannot eliminate the effects of indirect spellcasting.
Influence. Extraordinaries may master one or two different extraordinary abilities during the promotion process. Extraordinaries of this sequence need rich practical experience to be promoted. A hearty battle is the best catalyst. There are even opinions that bloody battles
It is a necessary ceremony for their promotion.
"Although Sequence 7 'Spellbreakers' are enough to serve as the core of the army, the materials, knowledge and rituals required for further promotion have been lost in the First Era. As a result, Spellbreaker officers are often at a disadvantage when encountering powerful enemy attacks.
