The area under the jurisdiction of Stonewell City is very large. The south includes a large area of land south of Aquile Lake and the entire huge island where Morn City is located. The east is bounded by the line of Smoke Church and Gaifu Fortress, and the west is Stonewell City. Ending with the sea near the cliff mountain where it is located, this large and fertile territory belongs to the Nimgefu area controlled by the king of Stonewell City!
Originally, in ancient times, this place was the territory of the Storm King, but a long time ago, Godfrey (or 'Geffry'), the first king of Elden, led his troops to conquer this place. After that, in the Shard At the end of the war, Greg and his people fled the royal city in panic and arrived here, where they stayed until a bad little girl arrived and took his place by accident.
Over the years, under Greg's perverse behavior and his cruelty of "extensions", it is still debatable how much of the Nimgofu area is still under his control.
Now, after a bad little girl killed the demigod Greg and moved into Stonewell City, and then ordered the soldiers in most levels to return for reorganization, it is even more difficult to know how much jurisdiction she still has over this vast area. It's an unknown number.
But fortunately, Stonewell City now has enough troops to reoccupy and control the entire Nimgefu area. Therefore, that kind of thing is not urgent. You can wait until Stonewell City is sorted out and restored. It is not too late to sort out and smooth out the damage and trauma caused by 'Extended Limb' Grek before rectifying certain functions.
However, a certain troubled little girl didn't mind at all how to deal with the above things, and after a few days when the situation calmed down a little, she simply gave up and ignored it.
That's right!
Her queen who had just announced that she was the 'Storm and Fire', her king who had just taken over Stonewell City, actually left Stonewell City, left her palace and fortress, and went to a place with Nim. The Gefu area is adjacent to the Lienia area, even separated by a cliff mountain.
only……
She didn't know where she was in the Lienia region now. Anyway, she was teleported here randomly. She didn't even carry a map, so she was just wandering around aimlessly in the wilderness.
"Uh huh huh~♫"
₍₍٩(ᐛ)۶₎₎~♪
Actually, when Anne left Stonewell Castle, in addition to being tired of the shabby place that is still a shabby place, she also wanted to deliberately hide from a certain shameless person who cried and made a fuss and insisted on guiding her to become. The so-called 'King of Elden', and the witch sister Serolina who tried to persuade her to no avail.
After all, that guy is really annoying.
The other party died once and lost a lot of memory. He obviously completely forgot key information such as the finger and the faded one, but he just didn't forget about the 'King of Elden', and he was still very stubborn. She was convinced that Queen Anne was the person the other party was waiting for, and she refused to listen to anything she said. She kept saying things like "I must become the King of Elden" next to her every day, which made her extremely noisy. bother.
then!
With no other choice, Anne, who couldn't help it, simply asked the other party to help manage Stonewell City and rectify the entire Ningmugefu area, and also promised that after the other party rectified the entire territory, she, Queen Anne, would definitely take it seriously. Consider, and possibly accept what the other party says, your plan to become the King of Elden?
Immediately afterwards, when the other party took over the defense and government affairs, and when the other party was serious about working hard to make her the King of Elden, she decisively dropped everything and the city of Stonewell. , a person came here quietly.
Anne herself didn't know where this place was, and she had never cared about it. She just teleported to this so-called Lienia area and saw a building here from a distance and headed towards it. Came here for a stroll.
But no idea...
"ah……"
(*¯ㅿ¯*;)
After getting closer, she discovered that this place was not a village or a gathering place for humans at all, but a very dilapidated church area?
Apart from the pointed, relatively intact roofs of the church ruins that can be seen from a distance, there are only fragments of broken eaves and broken walls and branches standing in the sky. They are just pillars among the wilderness of weeds and thorns.
"It turns out that this place is even worse than Stonewell City..."
(ಠ~ಠ)
"People thought this was a village just now..."
ε=(´ο`*)))Alas
If you don’t compare, you don’t know. If you compare, you will be shocked!
After looking at the tall dilapidated buildings in front of her that were hidden in the wilderness, seeing the damage caused by the debris war, and seeing that this place was even more dilapidated and desolate than the castle she just occupied, Anne then He couldn't help but sigh, and then planned to turn around and leave.
"etc!"
(。•ˇ‸ˇ•。)
"There seems to be someone inside?"
(ー`´ー)
However, before Anne could continue the next short-distance teleportation, she suddenly discovered that there seemed to be that vague smell of fireworks in front of the dilapidated church?
"Um……"
(„ಡωಡ„)
"Forget it, you're here now, let's go over and have a look!"
ε=(´ο`*)))Alas
So, of course, she was vaguely curious and wanted to know who would stay in such a poor place, so she sneaked forward without fear at all.
"Let's go, Tibbers!"
ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ
Although she knew there might be danger or trouble ahead, Anne didn't mind too much.
You know, who is Queen Anne? She was a powerful being who dared to wander alone in the dangerous voodoo land at the age of two or three and fight all over the voodoo land with invincible hands. Therefore, now a mere alien She would definitely not care about the dilapidated churches in the world.
(…)
(● ̄㉨ ̄●)
"Cathedral of Elis?"
(°ー°〃)
Soon, a relatively complete arch appeared in front of Anne.
"Ignore it!"
~o(▽`o)=3 =3 =3
But she just glanced at the embossed writing on the relatively complete ruins door, and then, without thinking too much, Annie took her own little bear and quietly went inside.
After a few minutes……
"..."
|д゚)
"Eh?"
(°д°)
After bypassing the vestibule, passing through the ruins of several cloisters, and arriving at the courtyard deep inside the church, I finally saw a statue of the Eternal Queen Malika hanging on the so-called 'Elden Ring'. , Anne found a depressed bald man wearing a mage's robe and sitting on a wooden stool under the eaves of a relatively clean ruin.
"Hey! Bald milf!"
(*^▽^*)
"What is this place and why are you here alone?"
(・o・)
Then, Annie, who never knew or wanted to see outsiders, looked around and found that there were no more people, then she showed up carelessly, skipped over and asked loudly in surprise.
"!!"
As soon as I saw a little girl like Annie pop up, and the man who looked human, fair and had a shiny bald head and black beard, I was naturally shocked!
"Who are you……"
Then, he subconsciously looked behind Anne and found that no one seemed to be following her, and the little girl herself seemed to be in no danger. Then he asked with some hesitation and surprise.
"My name is Annie!"
(∩▽∩)
"It's coming from Stonewell City!"
(^_−)☆
After seeing the hesitant and vigilant expression on the other party's face, Annie didn't hesitate too much and directly told her name and origin openly and openly.
"Stonville City?"
Subconsciously, he raised his head and looked towards the east horizon, towards the direction covered by the fog. Then, he looked outside the dilapidated church and listened, and found that there was indeed no sound of people or horses or vehicles outside. , the bald man once again asked in disbelief:
"you……"
"You came alone?"
He knows the dangers of this world better than anyone else, and now, such a seven or eight-year-old girl has come here from Stonewell City. Although it is not far from Stonewell, it is not as far away as in front of her. A feat that a little girl could accomplish, so he was unwilling to believe that what he was seeing was the truth.
"Of course I came alone!"
(。◕ˇεˇ◕。)
"By the way, I actually have a little bear accompanying me!"
(/^▽^)/⁽'㉨'⁾
As she spoke, Anne raised Tibbers the bear in her hand openly and introduced it to the other party in a crisp voice.
"this……"
"This is impossible!"
The bald man still didn't want to believe it, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"How could you, a little girl, come here alone?"
"This is impossible!"
If the person who came to him was a faded person, some kind of traveling businessman, or some kind of wandering warrior, he might not be too surprised. However, a little girl like this seemed to be unaccompanied. He still dared to say that he came from Stonewell City. Even though that place was not far from here, only two or three days away, that was not what such a little guy could do alone.
Anyway, he just doesn’t want to believe it!
When he thought about it, let alone such a seven or eight-year-old little girl, even if it was an ordinary strong adult who went on the road alone, he was afraid that his life would have been lost several times before he got here.
The dangers such as the dead, beasts, rebels, robbers or other monsters on the road are not something to be joked about casually!
"How is this impossible?"
(ಠ~ಠ)
"He is the most, most, most, most, most, most, most... the most powerful super arcane mage. He came over with just a teleportation spell. Isn't that difficult?"
o(*`ー´)o
Seeing that this bald man dared to look down on her, Anne refuted it without any politeness at all and revealed her true identity.
"ah!"
The bald man was startled at first, and then, as if he was even more unwilling to believe it, he began to look up and down at Anne in front of him again.
"A-Arcane Archmage?"
"You can do magic?!"
"Can you still do that kind of teleportation magic?"
Baldhead is no stranger to magic. He can even be said to be very familiar with it and knows what teleportation magic is. However, he still doesn't want to believe that such a little girl can use teleportation magic. Powerful mage.
You know, although he thinks he is not very talented, he still has some research and experience on magic. Moreover, he has not been able to use the advanced teleportation spells after studying for so many years, so he only knows a few types in front of him. How old is this little girl? How can she dare to brag about such advanced magic?
"Is it weird?"
(๑վ‸վ๑)
"look!"
(* ̄▽ ̄)o ─═≡※:☆
Seeing the disbelief on the other party's face, there was nothing she could do. Annie didn't hesitate or explain. She just turned around and a scorching ray was emitted from her fingers.
Then, not far away from the two of them, the statue of Malika, which had been barely intact and had not collapsed even when the church was turned into ruins, was instantly melted into a puddle, making a "sizzling" sound and braving the billowing heat waves. And the smoke spreads from the magma.
"ah!"
"Are you really a mage?"
At this moment, the bald man stood up and his eyes widened.
You must know that he himself is not very talented, and the magic he knows is very limited. He only has a starlight magic that illuminates the surroundings, a pyroxene arc that every magician who leaves the academy and embarks on the road knows, and a single target with high damage. It's just a pyroxene rubble, and like the little girl in front of him, he would definitely not be able to use magic power to emit a thermal energy magic and melt an entire statue of a god in a precise control spell casually.
"It's incredible..."
"really!"
"The elders in the college have said that people should not be judged by their appearance..."
Therefore, after being stunned for a while, the bald head finally believed the fact that the little girl in front of him came from Stonewell City alone, and was probably a powerful 'arcane' archmage.
Although, the fact that such a young girl dared to claim to be an arcane archmage always made him feel a little inferior and unbelievable.
"??"
(´・_・`)
"Uncle, you haven't said anything yet!"
(。◕ˇεˇ◕。)
"Who are you? Where is this place? Why do you stay here alone?"
(ー`´ー)
"Yes, there is more!"
!(;゚o゚)o
"The academy you just mentioned is..."
(๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
Anne didn't wait for the other party to continue to marvel, she spoke directly, interrupting the other party a little impolitely, and directly asked the question nonchalantly.
"ah……"
"this……"
"My name is Tops. This is the Elis Church. It is located in the southernmost part of the Lienia region. Not far to the east is the Stonewell city you mentioned."
"As for the academy..."
"Don't you know? That's where the stargazers gather, that is, the Rhea Lucalia Academy of Magic. I am the mage in the academy, but..."
"I can't go back now."
Standing there and talking a little awkwardly, at the end of the sentence, he didn't know if he thought of something depressing. The bald mage Tops sighed deeply, and then sat back on the chair all of a sudden. superior.
"Rea Lucalia Magic Academy?"
(⊙o⊙*)
Blinking, Annie felt that she seemed to have discovered a super interesting place by accident?
"Na!"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
"Bald man, can you tell me about that college? Also, why can't you go back?"
(⊙ᴗ⊙)
Anne was very curious about this, so she slowly approached and asked carefully.
"this……"
Maybe he had been alone for too long and was eager to find someone to talk to, or maybe he was frightened by Anne's magic that melted the statue of the god with a single spell, or maybe Anne's harmless appearance was very deceptive. ?
"Ashamed to say it!"
"This is probably what happened..."
Anyway, the bald mage Tops did not choose to hide it in the end. Instead, he directly told what he knew about this land, why he was depressed, why he stayed here alone, and why he could not go back. Everything was said bit by bit.
turn out to be……
Sometime after the Broken War broke out, not long after he came out of the Rhea Lucalia Magic Academy and the Hall of Knowledge of the Stone Magician, he encountered someone who opened the seal barrier and closed the entire academy. After that, he was naturally trapped outside, unable to go back, and ended up here, where he stayed for a long time.
"seal?"
(✪ω✪)
"It sounds like it's really fun..."
(*^▽^*)
"I have decided, let's go to the Rhea Lucalia Magic Academy you mentioned!"
✧*. ٩(*զ)و✧*.
The other party's words reminded Anne of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where she had been a professor, and a school of magic in a certain Winterfort, so she quickly knew where she should go next.
Anyway, in order to hide from the witch girl who insisted on guiding her to become the 'King of Elden' of Naru Shizi, she did not plan to return to Stonewell City too early, so if there was any specific place she could go to It would be perfect if she went to kill time.
"You're going to the academy?"
"This is easy..."
"Go north from here, and within a few days, you'll see a huge building standing on the horizontal plane. That's the Rhea Lucalia Magic Academy. It's not difficult to find at all."
"but……"
"Although the academy does not mind visits from outside mages, it has been closed for a long time. Magic seals have been set up on the east and south gates of the academy. You cannot enter without the pyroxene key."
"I don't know where the pyroxene keys are that are wandering around. I've traveled all over the Lienia region over the years, but I haven't found any of them..."
"so……"
"If you want to go inside the academy, I'm afraid it won't be easy. Even if you know teleportation magic, I probably won't be able to get in."
As he spoke, the bald mage Tops lowered his head in frustration.
When he thought about it, even the powerful arcane mage in front of him who claimed to be from Stonewell, this little girl who looked like she might be really powerful, would definitely not be able to easily enter the hall of pyroxene magic knowledge.
"Pyroxene Key?"
(*¯ㅿ¯*;)
"Let's talk about it then. Goodbye!"
ヾ(⌒∇⌒*)~♪
After knowing where she was going to play next, Annie didn't want to delay for a moment. So, while bidding farewell to the other party, she directly carried her little bear Tibbs and skipped towards the north of the ruins of the church. .
"Hello!"
"you……"
Seeing the other party leave and seeming to really want to go to the academy, the bald mage Tops suddenly thought of something and stood up quickly.
However, before he could say anything, he only found that the other party flashed in front and disappeared in an instant, and he didn't know where he was teleported.
"You can really teleport magic..."
"But……"
"Isn't Stonewell just a crazy demigod with 'replacement limbs'?"
Looking at the place where Annie disappeared, and then at Stonewell City hidden in the clouds and mist in the east, the bald mage Tops couldn't figure it out.
"When did that kind of powerful little girl mage appear again?"
"It's unbelievable..."
