wizard's path

() Seeing that Baron Wright took away the hatred, Eric was a little happy, thinking to himself: "This kid is not bad!"

Baron Willie became unhappy: "Wright, why are you always against me? I have tolerated you for a long time, isn't it just about Billy Herrington, why should I still hate me now? Besides, he took the initiative Leave yours!"

"You're talking nonsense. You arrested Billy's old mother to threaten him. Forget it, but you still tortured him like that!" Baron Wright said with tears in his eyes.

Shivering, Eric hurriedly pulled Emily away from this abnormal place.Seeing that Eric was about to leave, Baron Willie hurriedly stopped in front of Eric.

Eric stared into Baron Willie's eyes, and Emily saw swirls appear in Eric's eyes.Eric was performing "hypnosis", and Baron Willy unconsciously lost his head for a moment. When he woke up, he found that Eric had walked away.

"I didn't expect that gay guy to have magic items on him! Fortunately, I react quickly." When Eric cast magic on Baron Willy just now, he noticed that there was some kind of energy on the other party that weakened his attack, making him almost It's exposed.

Eric was familiar with that form of energy, it was a bit like the constant "detect undead" on "The Ring of the Dead".

"It seems to be an item that has a constant resistance to confusing magic effects." Eric thought for a while.

"The city lord is here!" This was the first time an attendant announced to a visitor.The banquet hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone present began to salute the city lord.

"Don't worry about these etiquettes. Maybe everyone doesn't know that my little daughter Miri and Sophia were born on the same day, and on that day, Sophia's father, the Marquis Sein, and I were fighting the orcs."

"Today, I am attending the birthday banquet as the elder of the two children, not the city lord. If you care too much about my identity, it will affect the atmosphere of the banquet!" Matthew said with a smile.

After listening to Matthew's words, everyone relaxed a lot, so they continued talking and laughing.Baron Wright and Baron Willie, who were at war with each other, immediately got along harmoniously, but the fierce collision of their eyes remained the same.

Unexpectedly, today is the birthday of the city lord's daughter, which made everyone feel a little unprepared, and no gifts were prepared!After Mi Rui saw his father, he hurried over and asked Matthew for a birthday present.

Matthew was confused by his daughter, and said, "Your and Sofia's gifts are all in Francisco's place, and he will come over soon."

After finishing speaking, Matthew also said to Sophia who came to him: "Francisco has put a lot of thought into your birthday gift."

Mi Rui thought of Eric laughing at her just now, rolled his eyes, and said to Matthew: "My dear father, Sir Eric is here today, let's just let him play a song for the birthday banquet It's all over."

"Oh, Eric is here too? His "Romeo and Juliet" even moved me very much. Your mother often used it to make fun of me, saying that I was similar to that leading actor, hahaha!"

Eric was called to his side by someone sent by Matthew, and this action attracted the attention of all the guests in the hall.Matthew looked at Eric carefully, and found that the other's mental outlook seemed to have changed a bit.

"Eric, it seems that music can really nurture people. I haven't seen you for a while, and your temperament has become much more elegant. By the way, I also want to congratulate you on successfully passing the imperial knight examination. Are you interested in being my family musician? "

Matthew's words made Mi Rui's eyes widen. She couldn't believe that her father would value Eric so much. Her family's position as a musician was something that many people wanted even if they broke their heads.

It made Mi Rui feel unbelievable again. Eric just shook his head at Matthew's invitation and said, "The kindness of the city lord really terrifies me, but I have dedicated my life to art, so I can only accept the kindness of the city lord." I can take it with my heart."

Eric's refusal made Matthew a little surprised, but his heart is not comparable to that of ordinary people. He would not say anything that Eric didn't know what was good or bad, but nodded to express his understanding of Eric's choice.

"That's such a pity, maybe only a bard like you who doesn't care about fame and fortune can create excellent works of art, but now, are you going to play for the banquet on the spot!" Matthew said with a smile.

"Yeah! Yeah! New music is best. His Excellency Santos said that you are the most gifted bard he has ever seen. So I hope you can create a new music to celebrate me and Sophia's birthday."

The guests all felt that Mi Rui's request was a bit overwhelming. Does this mean that creation can be created?Seeing Mi Rui's look of wanting to make a fool of you, Eric really wanted to turn around and leave without even shaking her.

But the city lord Matthew is still here. Eric, who was worried, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "My talent is only average, but I really have a song for the two of you."

Without preparing any instruments, Eric cleared his throat under everyone's curious eyes, and sang: "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you...."

Mi Rui and the guests in the hall were stunned. I didn't expect Eric to sing such a simple song, but I can't say it's bad, it's just... just feels weird...

Eric gave Emily a wink, and Emily immediately sang along, and then more and more people sang along, and everyone ended up singing.

The atmosphere suddenly became heated, Sophia and Miri were a little moved, Eric pushed the small cart with the raw cakes in front of Sophia, and said to her: "Make a wish!"

Sophia closed her eyes with a blushing face, then opened her eyes and blew out the candles on the cake, Miri did the same once.

"I didn't expect, Eric, you are really... really quick to respond, but you are also really amazing. You actually came up with such a simple and happy birthday song. I think there will be many of you at everyone's birthday banquet in the future. This song." Matthew was also a little dumbfounded by Eric's on-the-spot reaction.

"Eric, I often hear Minks talking about you. I'm Kaidong." A noble young man with a high spirits extended his hand towards Eric in a friendly manner.

This person is the noble youth Kaidong who walked with the commoner apprentice knights. He is the second son of the financial officer of Lycra City. Since his mother is also a commoner, he is different from other noble children. He prefers to stay with the commoners. together.

Over time, Kaidong was regarded as the representative of the common people by default.

Eric shook hands with the other party with a smile on his face, and said, "I am honored to know you. You are the goal that many civilian youths yearn for."

This sentence is true. What Kaidong has been doing all along is to fight for the rights and interests of commoner apprentice knights, and strive to let everyone get some equal treatment.For example, various positions in the empire are only open to apprentice knights who are descendants of nobles.

"Eric, I heard that you passed the knight examination, how are you? Are you interested in joining the knight order I established?" Kaidong invited Eric.

"I still prefer to be a bard!" Eric declined the other party with a smile.

"Eric, you actually rejected the invitation of His Excellency Kaidong. Even if you are a slightly famous bard now, you are still a commoner in your bones. It is the same if you become a knight and have the title of Lord." A handsome young man, his face was full of disdain after seeing Eric reject the invitation.

Eric also knew this man, his name was Jaheira, and he used to hang out behind Rice.So it was fixed by Eric.The unfriendly attitude towards Eric did not surprise Eric in the slightest.

Without paying attention to the other party, Eric led Emily to continue eating.

Jaheira obviously didn't want to let Eric go, so he reached out and grabbed Eric's shoulders, and said to him: "You are a commoner, if you don't take refuge in Lord Kaidong, you will be unable to take a single step in Laika City. I advise you to be sensible. One point. Your Excellency Kaidong will also teach you combat skills, and I am now a knight!"

While speaking, Jaheira deliberately increased the strength in her hands, and tightly clasped Eric's shoulders.

"I said, why are you hanging like this? Why are you hanging like this? You turned out to be a knight, and you have been an apprentice knight for eight years. You really scared me to death!" Eric curled his lips, feeling a little funny in his heart .

Kedong thought that Eric was being stumped by Jaheira, so he "hastily" stepped forward and said, "Jaheira is fine, don't do this, everyone has their own ideas, but I think Your Excellency Eric will seriously consider mine. Opinion, isn't it?"

Hehe twice, Eric directly left a back view for the two of them.

"You really don't know what to do, Kaidong, why did you recruit such a person?" Jaheira's handsome face was full of mockery: "It's just a guy from a pirate background."

Kaidong showed a playful smile, and said softly to Jaheira: "Do you think I really value him? I asked someone to investigate Eric, and found that he has a good relationship with Congressman Batista's housekeeper. I just want to catch up with him." It’s just this line, if he doesn’t know how to praise, we have plenty of ways to teach him. You’re right, he’s just a guy from a pirate background, do you really think he can be compared with a regular knight?”

A neighing sound came from the door, and everyone looked towards the door, only to see Francisco leading a pure white pony into the hall.

"What a beautiful horse... no... oh my god... it's a unicorn."

Eric had never seen a unicorn, but seeing Sophia's eyes never leaving the pony, he felt that even if this horse wasn't a unicorn, it was an excellent breed.

"Sophia, this is a gift from me. I got it from a wooden elf ranger. This is a newborn unicorn. I didn't buy it with money, but exchanged it for something. of."

Sophia was completely attracted by the little unicorn in front of her, and just when she was about to reach out to touch it, she realized that her actions were a bit rash: "Francisco, this is really a precious gift, but I can't accept it, it's too Precious!"

Not only Francisco, but even Matthew and Miri were stunned. None of these people thought that Sofia would refuse this gift.
