On the second day after Erwin and the others returned from the ancient ruins of the holy land of Raidil, Annie, after watching the excitement and feeling that there was nothing interesting, resolutely followed the group of secondary school students who were thinking about saving the world all day long. The uncles and sisters bid farewell and left the city of Karthus that she had visited all over the place.

At that time, that idiot Hein, Miss Elena and others naturally begged and invited her to stay and join their glorious team dedicated to peace and defeating evil.

only…

Annie thought for a long time (about three seconds), but in the end she didn't agree to them, and she didn't want to go with them to find the so-called holy sword 'Langulissa'. She directly expressed that she was not very interested on the spot, after all, she But a super powerful arcane mage, as for the holy sword and so on, although it sounds very rare, but no matter what, it is just a little rare. Certainly not enough.

Besides, it is much more convenient for her to go and see the holy sword by herself first, so she doesn't want to bring those cumbersome and troublesome guys with her.

For example, today, she came to this village following a caravan that was on the way, and her final destination, of course, is undoubtedly the ancient ruins, that is, the former site of the Bardia Kingdom, the reincarnated great magician Jie Sika gave Erwin and the others the place where the holy sword Langulisa was sealed—Baldia City!

?

At this time, it was getting dark outside...

"Hahaha!"

"Come on, let's have a drink!"

"Matthew!"

"Bring over that barrel of wine!"

"stop!"

"I said, Grenier, can you two stop drinking?"

"Why?"

"Aimeda, haven't we already sent the employer's caravan here safely?"

"Since the task is completed, what's the point of drinking a little?"

"you!"

"The world is not peaceful now. If you are drunk, what should you do when something happens?"

"This..."

"cough!"

"What can happen?"

"Okay, Matthew, leave her alone, she just likes to think wildly, let's keep drinking ours!"

"Done!"

In the village, in this tavern, Matthew, Grenier, and Almeda, who completed the task of escorting the caravan and made a fortune, were arguing noisily in a corner of the lobby.

"..."

(??~??) Chew~!

"..."

(??～??)

Anne, who was eating her own dinner, of course also noticed the noise of the three of them. Then, after thinking about it, she saw that the food on her plate was almost eaten, and she heard that they seemed to talk about something that she was interested in. After what happened, he jumped directly towards the three of them.

"Hello!"

?(?ˉ??ˉ?)

"What were you talking about just now?"

?(ψ｀▽′)o

Annie asked without seeing anything.

In fact, she doesn't need to see outsiders either!

Because, the reason why she joined this caravan and came to this village with them is because she saw these guys being attacked by a group of imps and nerubians on the way, and seeing them getting weaker and weaker. When they were about to be eaten, they suddenly came to help and saved the lives of them and everyone in the entire caravan.

"ha!"

"Archmage Anne?"

"Come on, let's have a drink..."

Bang!

Seeing Annie approaching, the drunk Grenier hurriedly raised the wine glass in his hand, and then wanted to offer a glass to the little girl they had just met who looked young but was very capable.

Then, as a matter of course, he was hit **** the back of the head by Almeda who was on the side with that rosewood wine glass.

"Ouch!"

"Aimeda, what did you hit me for?"

Then, Grenier, who almost fell headfirst to the floor, protested loudly while rubbing the back of his head in displeasure.

"It's fine for the two of you to drink!"

"Annie is a mage, and she is still a child, how can you let her drink?"

"Don't you know that terrible things can happen to a mage if he's drunk?"

"At that time, if I burn you to death, I won't treat you!"

"snort!"

Said, after complaining, Almeda simply stretched out her hand, and snatched the cups in front of both Matthew and Grenier, apparently not intending to let the two guys who were already drunk touch those cups again. Sour wine.

"..."

(lll￢▽￢)

Annie didn't speak, though, she really wanted to say: Even if the other party didn't stop her, she would definitely not drink those boring and choking alcoholic drinks.

"Nah!"

(???c)

"Uncle Nigel, continue to tell the story you just told!?"

?~(′?`*)

After that Miss Aimeda moved all the drinks aside, Anne couldn't wait to ask.

"..."

"Where were we talking just now?"

"oh!"

"By the way, we are talking about the period when the ancient kingdom of Bardia fell and Prince Redding led his partners on the road to restoration."

After eyeing each other drunkenly with Matthew at the side, Nigel quickly thought of what they had just said halfway through.

"But, little one..."

"I'm not an uncle, I'm only eighteen years old..."

"And ah..."

"Well!"

"That's not a story, that's what actually happened..."

Already drunk, Nigel completely forgot that the little girl in front of him was a terrifying archmage. After reprimanding Annie, he wobbled and talked about the ancient Kingdom of Bardia and The story of Prince Reading.

According to legend…

Hundreds of years ago, the ancient kingdom of Guldia was conquered by Digos, the emperor of the ancient Dalsis Empire, and was on the verge of extinction. At that time of crisis, Prince Redding, the descendant who inherited the power of brilliance, had courage and The honored hero led his partner and the holy sword 'Langulisa' on the road to the restoration of the country.

Afterwards, as the legendary epic prologue was drawn, after a very hard and cruel battle, Prince Reading counterattacked and smashed the conspiracy of Emperor Digos and the King of Chaos, and left all kinds of epic stories. Deeds of heroic leaders.

It is a pity that, under the scouring of time, the ancient kingdom of Bardia, which once ruled the continent, finally perished...

However, it is said that when the kingdom was destroyed, the descendants of the royal family, that is, the glorious descendants, hid the holy sword Langulisa, making it completely disappear in this vast land?

Up to now, the holy sword has not appeared for hundreds of years, and the legend of the previously unknown magic sword, the Aluha Sato, has begun to spread in the hearts of people full of desire for some reason. And some people swear that they have seen the emperor of the empire, Barnhardt, attacking a city in a neighboring country with a magic sword in hand?

"It's probably going to be like this..."

"Well!"

"You have also seen it, and you don't know the reason. There are more and more monsters recently. The power of darkness must have awakened. The new empire is fighting everywhere. I don't know who can hold the holy sword to calm down this time. This troubled world?"

"But that's good too. The life of us mercenaries is getting better and better."

"hey-hey…"

After finishing speaking, the short-haired Grenier laughed drunkenly, and directly lay down on the table and scratched.

"Getting better?"

"Genier, are you crazy?"

"When we came here, if we hadn't met Annie, the three of us and the caravan would have been wiped out. Do you call this an easy life?"

"Have you forgotten who was carried into the air by those monsters and almost returned with their lives?"

"you!"

At this time, Miss Aimeda came over, and after hearing Nigel's words, she thrust her waist angrily and reprimanded her loudly angrily.

"Okay, Almeda, calm down."

"Besides, what Nigel said just now is actually true, haven't you noticed? There are indeed more and more monsters recently, which is very abnormal!"

"I don't know, will the Descendants of Glory come out this time and save the world?"

"well…"

After comforting his companion Aimeda first, that Uncle Matthew followed Nigel's example, laying down on the table and sighing heavily.

"Knowing that there are more and more monsters, how long have you been drinking when you go out?"

"Look at you!"

"Can you afford a weapon now?"

Seeing the two guys who were drunk after completing a small task, Aimeda was furious.

"..."

(*ˉ?ˉ*;)

Annie didn't care about the dispute between the three in front of her, but pondered about the ancient kingdom of Bardia that the short-haired uncle Nigel just said.

Of course, she doesn't care about the ancient princes or the descendants of the power of brilliance. What she cares more about now is obviously the specific location of the Daigbaldia city, and she is eager to know where it is!

"That is to say..."

(??w??)

"Uncle Grenier!"

|???w??)??

"And Uncle Matthew!

(*^▽^*)

"Do you know the specific location of the ancient Bardia city?"

?(????)?

Whether there are many monsters in this world has nothing to do with Annie, and Annie doesn't want to care about whether there are descendants of glory coming out to save the world. Anyway, as far as she knows, that Alvin and that great magician who doesn't know the specific identity Jessica and the others have already started to move, and are planning to find the holy sword. It may be behind her at this moment, so she must move faster!

(…)

(●￣(?)￣●)

"The ancient city of Bardia?"

"Of course I know!"

"But, little guy, why are you asking this?"

The drunken Grenier didn't think much, he sat up straight proudly and patted his chest, then leaned back on the wooden table and asked a little strangely.

"do what?"

(???.???)????

"What else can I do, of course I want to go there to find the legendary holy sword Langulisa!"

o((*^▽^*))o

Annie didn't hide the slightest thing, and she spoke out loudly about her purpose cutely.

"Holy sword?"

"Rangulissa?"

Grenier was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Uh-huh!"

(*ˉ︶ˉ*)

"That's right, I'm going to that Bardia city to find that holy sword!"

∠(?▽?)／

Annie nodded, repeating her purpose once again.

"..."

"..."

Grenier didn't speak, but subconsciously glanced at his good friend Matthew.

Immediately after...

"Hahaha!"

"Little guy, I advise you not to go, there is nothing there, just the ruins of the fortress of King Daibauldia!"

"That's right!"

"There is no holy sword inside!"

"Many people have been there, and we have been there back then. It was empty, and valuables were taken away hundreds of years ago. Now there is only a broken copper handle inlaid on a stone seat. iron!"

Grenier and Matthew, of course, just laughed out loud without restraint, and didn't take what Anne said just now to heart.

"!"

!(;?o?)o

"A piece of scrap metal? That's great, maybe it's the holy sword!"

???(?)????

Annie immediately cheered excitedly, jumping for joy that she had found more clues.

"ah?"

"Is that the holy sword?"

"No way…"

"You must be talking nonsense!"

"I do not believe!"

"I don't believe it either..."

Unfortunately, Grenier and Matthew, who were already drunk at this time, were unwilling to believe a little girl's words, even if the other party was a powerful archmage!

After all, they had indeed been to the ruins of the fortress of King Daigbaldia back then, and it was indeed empty inside. It had been visited many times by countless people, except for the imitation of the holy sword inlaid In the stone seat, there are already rusty spots, glued together with the stone seat, and there is really nothing except the tattered iron piece that can't even be buckled.

"That's it!"

ヾ(￣0￣)

"They hire you, and then you take them to the ruins of the ancient castle tomorrow, how about it?"

?(????)

Annie didn't need those idiots to believe it. Anyway, no matter whether it was true or not, she only needed to look at it to know.

And the sooner the better, although she set off several days before Alvin and the others, maybe those guys would take a shortcut, so she had to move faster.

"Hire?"

"But…"

"Do you have money?"

"You came here because you hitchhiked!"

"that is!"

"Hahaha!"

After speaking, Matthew and Nigel both laughed again.

They had seen it a long time ago, the little girl was wearing a hideous plush teddy bear, and after that, there were no more bags and packages,

"snort!"

(??へ???╬)

"Everyone has money!"

(?╭╮?)

As she spoke, Annie swiped and pulled out a large pile of gold coins from her pocket, and then piled them on the table in front of the two guys who dared to laugh at her.

In the next second, in this slightly dim country tavern, a golden light almost blinded the eyes of two drunkards and a certain young lady.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Sure enough, just this moment, in the face of powerful facts, whether it was the two weird uncles Matthew and Grenier who were still laughing at just now, or the Miss Aimeda who was covering her mouth at the side, they were all overwhelmed by that one. The pile of gold coins was so shocked that he couldn't say a word for a long time.

'! '

'Yeah! ! '

However!

Before the three mercenaries came back to their senses and considered whether to agree to the employment request of a wicked little girl mage, they went to the ruins of the Daigbaldia city together and looked for the holy sword that did not exist. Suddenly, the village There were bursts of shrill screams from outside.

"Oh no!"

"Matthew! Niggle!"

"There are monsters outside, they are blocking the entrance of the village!"

"We are now surrounded!"

Immediately afterwards, a caravan groom broke in, and the other party shouted at Matthew and the other three who were a little overwhelmed by the large amount of gold coins with an ugly face.

Under the influence of strong fear, he didn't even care about the pile of gold coins on the three people's table at all, and he was even less in the mood to ask what was going on.

"!"

"What?"

"Monster?"

"No way?"

"It's really here?!"

After listening, of course Matthew and Grenier jumped up in exclamation, and then grabbed their weapons and wanted to run out to see the situation.

then...

Already drunk, they staggered and bumped into each other before reaching the door of the tavern, and then the spears rolled into the distance, unable to get up for a long time.

"I knew it!"

"Look!"

"I told you not to drink but you want to drink, what should I do now?!"

Seeing this, as a matter of course, the companion of the two, that Aimeda yelled angrily, and then stepped forward, trying to help the two of them ~lightnovelpub.net~ Forget it! Let others help, Miss Aimeda, you just need to remember to take her to the ruins of the castle tomorrow! "

ε=(′ο｀*)))

After finishing speaking, Annie stopped looking at the three people who were entangled together, and stopped taking back the pile of gold coins used as employment fees. She just slapped her buttocks, and then jumped out of the door with her little bear out.
