After bidding farewell to the queen and the knight, Ella found the old Wendel's monument.It was built on the broken blue ice bridge, and the ruins of the entire collapsed city can be seen from here.
With this as the center, New Wendell built a semicircular square close to the cliff here.The huge stele carved with black stone records the end of 15 years ago in an epic style, and the patterns and reliefs are the heroes of the old kingdom and the description of the war.
In front of the stele is an ice-blue garden, which absorbs the magical power in the ice and snow for a very long flowering period.
Bards who come to find inspiration, play musical instruments or sing loudly can be seen everywhere in the square. In the foreseeable future, those people and stories in the past are enough for them to sing for a hundred years.
Ayla's presence created a modest stir, and for the bards of good deeds, there is nothing more exciting than seeing the participants in the story with their own eyes.
Passing through the noisy crowd, Ayla placed the earring with the notation in front of the monument and fixed it in place with a little magic.
She originally wanted to replace the "nameless court mage" in the inscription with Sarah Susan Novia.But after a while, Ella still felt that the former was more suitable to stay on this stele.After a long time, that gentle woman is more suitable for the former slightly mysterious title.She is a female wizard who suddenly appeared in Wendel Palace, and the other world is not important anymore.
Thinking about it, Ella suddenly noticed an old man painting facing the ruins.
Although he was facing the ruins, the gradually formed pattern was the magnificent old royal city like a miracle. If he hadn't lived here for a long time, it would be impossible to restore it to this level.It doesn't look like he's a newcomer to the Dreamlands, but one of the survivors from 15 years ago.
The old man hummed an out-of-tune song intermittently:
You who travel far, you can never forget,
The snowflake gate under the purple moon,
The glittering blue ice bridge.
No matter where you want to go, Wendell is still on the snow mountain.
No matter where you are, Wendel is still your hometown...
Ella couldn't help taking a few more glances. The tip of the old man's ears was almost half longer than that of ordinary people, with obvious elf features.
The old man also seemed to have noticed the abnormality behind him. When he turned his head, his eyes were a little cloudy dark blue.
Ella suddenly realized that she should have seen this person,
"you are?"
"It's you."
The two spoke almost at the same time, but their tones were completely different.
The latter smiled,
"You probably don't remember me anymore. At the birthday celebration of His Majesty the Snow King, I was the magician representing Viscount Eugen."
The girl suddenly realized that the opponent was the opponent she defeated in the second magic duel, the old half-blood elf who controlled the wind and snow.Ella can't remember his name clearly, but he can barely be regarded as a familiar face who left an impression on him in the Snow Country. A little bit of hatred back then can be regarded as a story that can be regarded as a joke now.
Scratching a little hazy memory, Ayla remembered that the old man was supposed to be a more... pompous and arrogant person.And with his magical power and bloodline, perhaps it is enough to serve as a court mage in the Land of New Snow.
As if seeing the doubt in the girl's eyes, the old man daubed a little blue paint on the canvas, showing a relieved smile.
"Ever since I saw the magic that Erwin used at the end, I realized that I am not made to be a court mage at all."
Hearing this familiar name, Ayla was silent for a few seconds. It is said that the third court mage of the Snow Country once summoned a huge alien monster to destroy the bridge leading to the royal city.Erwin is indeed a genius, he mastered the Digang Test Summoning even faster than Ella.
But she still couldn't quite understand the changes in the old man.
"Even then, you can serve as a consultant in Lily I's magic laboratory."
"Hey, magic..."
The old man shrugged his shoulders, pointed to the ruins in front of him and said,
"My quest for magic and glory is all buried there."
"Or art is more suitable for a half-breed elf to retire. Maybe being a bard is also good, but my voice is not very good."
While rambling on, he finally finished the last stroke on the canvas.
It was the mountains and the magnificent city surrounded by ice and snow, the blue ore lamps and the huge bridges exuded a soft shimmer.
The old man nodded in satisfaction, the canvas is the legendary age he loves.
Chapter 19 Farewell
A huge bonfire rose in the square in front of the palace, and the warm orange flame danced in the night and snow.Dancing with this wonderful rhythm are also the residents who participated in the dinner.
Bards played the harpsichord in front of the campfire, humming corny tunes with not-so-nice voices.
On the simple but sturdy and practical stone table, there are various kinds of food available.Honey ferrets grilled bright red, fat roast goose, and tender white sausages infused with rich spices.Compared with the Snow King's birthday celebration that Ella remembered, this dinner was not as elegant and solemn, but it was full of life.
People from various cities in the old snow country gathered here, and brought their familiar customs and specialties to this occasion that did not belong to them.
As the power of the king in the air gradually dissipated, this country was no longer as cold as it used to be.The guests drank the wine, and some were so drunk that they just lay down near the campfire and began to have sweet dreams.
Sitting on the terrace of the palace, Ella suddenly felt a little funny. The essence of this world is a dream, so what would dreamers see in the dream?Will there be another place like the Land of Snow?
"Ella, what are you thinking?"
The lights were bright on the terrace, and Lily sat with her on the highest place in the city.The former noticed that Ella was a little absent-minded, and asked casually.
"Thinking... what a nice place to be."
"Really, do you want to consider staying?"
Ella said nothing, just turned her head to look at the bright bonfire.In fact, staying in the dreamland is actually not bad, but she still has more people and things she can't let go of in the material world.
Lily sighed imperceptibly, and she only needed to take a look to understand what Ella was thinking now.At this time, the atmosphere in the square reached another climax. The originally lazy melody gathered by several bards suddenly changed to a completely different force, making people unable to help but want to shake their bodies along with the beat.
Her Majesty the Queen couldn't help laughing,
"So you can play the harp like this?"
She seemed to think of something interesting, suddenly smiled and said:
"Speaking of Ella, I remember that prom 15 years ago, you seemed to be eating all the time?"
Yeah?It seems that there is such a thing.
Ella took a sip of the liqueur.
"I wasn't very good at it at the time... and I wasn't interested in accepting invitations from strange nobles."
Lily couldn't help raising her eyebrows when she heard this,
"Okay, so you mean—you've gotten good at it now?"
After being reborn, Ella's physical ability is completely different from when she was weak and sick in the past. Whether it is coordination or flexibility, she is not inferior to a real dancer. She and Ling verified it when they were in Paris. at this point.
Ella nodded in agreement.
"A little bit."
Lily I clapped her hands and said in an unquestionable tone:
"It's a rare opportunity now, and you are the protagonist of today's celebration. Go down to lead the dance and meet everyone by the way."
"Then would you like to be my dance partner, Your Majesty the Empress?"
"I don't mind, but I can lend you my knight—Ashley!"
The chief knight with short chestnut hair was wearing a black short swallow tuxedo and tailcoat, paired with white tight breeches, still a heroic man's attire.
"Knight? I thought Ashley should be the Duke or His Excellency the Prince now."
Recalling the atmosphere in the study, Ella said half-jokingly.
In her country, the queen's husband enjoys the title of honorary prince.According to her understanding, the title system of Snow Country is very close to the material world she is familiar with.
Lily's face turned a little redder, and then snorted:
"It will take a longer process for this to be accepted by my people - but that will happen sooner or later."
Ashley's attitude towards this was quite calm.
"There will inevitably be many problems, such as the young lady's children... Although our lifespan in this world seems to be very long, we don't need to consider the issue of establishing an heir, but it is not easy for the people to accept this kind of change, and I obviously can't give her these..."
The queen's face became even redder.
"Ashley, what are you talking about in front of Ella!"
"Enough is enough, go and dance, this is named after Her Majesty the Empress!"
Ella, who was aroused by the scene in front of her, suddenly raised the corner of her mouth, and whispered something to Ashley.That was an embarrassing topic that Lady Diana had brought up with her, and some common sense was not absolutely unbreakable for wizards.
"what!"
The chief knight of the Snow Country looked at the witch in front of him in astonishment, then lowered his voice and asked.
"Are you serious?!"
Seeing Ella with a smirk on her face, Lily not far away suddenly trembled.
-
The end of the court mage and the chief knight made the atmosphere of the ball more lively. Most people who have lived in the royal city for a long time are not surprised by the dress style of this female knight, and various anecdotes about her and Her Majesty the Queen are also widely spread among those who are interested.But Ella now suspects that most of these rumors were released by Lily and the others on their own initiative, and they used this to pave the way for future events.
It took less than a minute for Ella to become familiar with the steps of this dance, while Ashley, who is a knight, was even better at coordinating.
"It's unbelievable that only one year has passed in the physical world...but now you act like a fully trained knight."
Ashley pressed his hand on the girl's waist, and the movements of the first and last still needed to be guided by her, but now there was a faint tendency to dominate.
"It's the magic of magic."
Ella smiled, implicitly expressing another meaning.But Ashley's body stiffened strangely,
"What you just said...is it really possible?"
"Why not, whether it's some strange black magic potion, or the old man's alchemy of life may do it."
As she spoke, she quickened her dance steps a little.
Ashley made a rare mistake and almost guessed the girl's foot, and his movements became a little chaotic for a while.Even though 15 years have passed, she is still impressed by the "black magic potion" that Ella said, but for the happiness of the lady... Thinking of this, the knight couldn't help but gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
"Why, are you interested in this method?"
Ella suddenly found it interesting to bully the troubled Ashley, and she hadn't experienced such a relaxed atmosphere for a long time.
"You've turned bad, Ella."
