The female devils I saved came to my door

As for Ciel's identity, he is a traveling mage who travels all over the world and is home in all corners of the world.

It sounds like a mage with no fixed abode has a much lower status than a princess. However, this is not the case.

After all, the Yiboli State is just a medium-sized state in the world of [Arran], on the northern side of the Western Continent, known as the "Great Hesende Region". It governs only three or four walled cities, and only a few villages and towns. Ten.

In this world with magic, the life of aristocrats is always much better than that of European medieval aristocrats.

Kings can also rely on magical potions to gain longer lives and more heirs.The living environment is also cleaner, not as dirty as medieval cities.

Especially the old king of Ipoli. Not only was he well-dressed and well-fed, he was also extremely energetic.

Relying on the wizards who spent a lot of money to prepare various potions for him, plus the dozen or so wives he forcibly married in spite of the church's ban, on the day of his [-]th birthday, he already had forty or fifty children, as well as dozens of children. Hundreds of illegitimate children.

The number of grandchildren is even more numerous.

As for Lovna, she was just the 23rd prince of the old king, married to the niece of the mayor's family, and conceived after sleeping with her for a few nights.

The reason why the mayor was eager to give his niece to the prince was because the woman's parents had passed away and she was easy to bully. In addition, the girl was pretty good-looking, and the prince happened to like her, so it happened.

As for the mayor, he betrayed his niece to get a job as a tax collector for his son.

It was this simple transaction that led to the birth of Lovna.

Although compared to an illegitimate daughter, her status as a princess can still be recognized, and she also has maids at her disposal, but that's it.

Her residence was outside the palace, in a small house at the mill by the river.

Her friends before she was five years old were the cows, sheep, and dogs kept on the farm next to the mill, as well as the children of some maids and servants.

By the way, these children later died of labor, labor, war, bad wine, and plague.

On the contrary, the cows and horses on those farms are regarded as the king's property, so if they are properly protected, their lifespan will be relatively long.

Lovna only met her father a few times, and she only met her father on major holidays with other children.

Maybe, her father, who was a prince, didn't even remember having such a daughter.

This is the childhood of this princess.

At the age of six or seven, as a princess, it was time for her to enter a school run by the church.

This is a benefit that the church provides to nobles everywhere.The churches in various cities recruited bachelors, built church schools, and taught these noble children free spelling, history, and arithmetic.

It is especially important to teach children theology.

Instill in children a pious thought towards the Lord God from an early age, so that all children know from an early age how great the "Supreme and Eternal Existence" is. When they grow up, they must not disobey the church and remember to send money to the church in a timely manner.

But most of the boys did not like the criticism of these priests.They prefer to learn hunting and slashing skills from their fathers.

Unless the priests could bring in an alchemist or a wizard to show the boys something really interesting, they would not come into class.

However, most local churches cannot afford to hire truly capable Masters.

Even if the king is willing to pay a mage to refine medicine and forge weapons for him, it is still a one-time deal.

Magicians and alchemists are very proud.Especially those high-level mages of secret societies and ancient schools.

Their dojos located in valleys, colleges, and underground are inherently isolated from the world.Most mages who travel abroad are concentrated in prosperous and developed big cities, and a very small number of them travel to various places and settle in remote areas.

Therefore, how could a mage impart valuable knowledge to a group of noisy children of local nobles in a noisy local church school?

So, missionary schools are boring.

The teacher is boring and the classes are boring.

There is always a black-robed priest wearing a white shawl, feebly writing incomprehensible words on the blackboard, holding church books as heavy as bricks, and shaking his head at the children.

The clergy were also eccentric.

Some like to hit people with boards for no reason; some fool around and ignore the lessons; some feverishly ask children to recite poems praising the gods. If anyone can't recite them well, he will scold the children with tears and laughter. Like a psycho.

Therefore, Lovna hated missionary schools.

She also heard her devout mother say: Church schools are places where children can become pious.Study hard, and when you get married, you will be able to marry a good husband under the blessing of God, be able to use arithmetic to help your husband manage his accounts, and be able to make up stories for your children using the history taught by the church.

In short, only by studying hard can you be a qualified mother.

This made Lovna hate studying even more.

Especially in mathematics, the priest who is responsible for teaching arithmetic especially likes to hold children's hands and clamp their fingers with clips.If you make a mistake in arithmetic, just pinch one finger.

Every time she takes a math quiz, a math idiot like Lovna suffers from swollen fingers for more than ten days.

She also heard the arithmetic teacher say: You little girls don't know martial arts, you can only learn some arithmetic knowledge.You must at least learn to help your husband take care of the house and settle accounts in the future. Otherwise, if you can't even count money, you will be a waste.

"It's okay if I don't get married or get married!" Lovna, who was punished, still refused to accept the punishment.

"If you don't get married, what do you want to do in the future?" The priest scolded her sternly: "Do you think your father will support you for the rest of your life? Do you think you can do magic? Are you so favored?"

"Maybe I can be a magician?" She was still talking back.

As a result, the children naturally laughed.

After a scolding, Lovna stretched out her swollen hands, squatted outside the classroom and cried silently.

Studying is so annoying.

It wasn't until the day she was seven years old that a bright light finally appeared in her gloomy life.

Charles appeared in her life.

3. First meeting

One day in class, before the priest walked into the classroom, the students suddenly started talking, as if they were spreading some shocking news.

"Hey! Did you know? There is a new teacher! It is said that he came from a long way across an entire continent!"

"Come a long way, how far is it?"

"Anyway, he's not from Iboli, or maybe even from Hessend! Maybe he's from the Bachelor's City or the Mage Tower! Because this teacher is a magician, a real magician?"

"Really, you're not bragging again, are you?"

"It's absolutely true. He was even called by the king to prepare medicine!"

"Is there really a magician who will be our teacher? Is he here to teach us magic?"

"No, how could a magician teach us magic casually? There are many rules for learning magic. What qualifications do you have to ask him to teach you magic?"

"...Then what is he here to teach?"

"Teach arithmetic. The previous arithmetic teacher was bewitched by the devil. He slept with a sheep in the bedroom. The priest discovered it, and the church took him to exorcise him."

"Sleeping with sheep? What's the big deal? Many of my slaves sleep in the shack at night, sleeping with sheep and dogs. It's normal."

"It's not an ordinary sleep, it's... well, you don't understand even if I tell you."

………………

Lovna didn't understand the meaning of sleeping sheep, devils and the like.She was too embarrassed to ask other people, after all, she was not popular in school.

But it's a good thing that the annoying arithmetic teacher is gone.

Moreover, a traveling magic teacher is almost like a dream.

As she was thinking wildly, she couldn't help imagining that after she became a magician, she would dance her staff and fight with other friends, so that everyone would be so frightened by her magic that they would not dare to raise their heads.

She couldn't help but start to giggle.

"Hey, hey, hey! Look, look, look! Silly girl Lovna is starting to giggle again!"

A few people who liked to cause trouble in the class started to make noises when they saw the unsociable Lovna laughing.

Children's malice is always incomprehensible and responds to everything. One child sang a tone-deaf song: "Fool Lovna! Fool Lovna! Smile like a little fool! Fool, fool, fool!"

"I'm not, fool!" After recovering from the illusion, Lovna hurriedly stood up and wanted to argue with the group of children.

But the other children didn't listen and kept singing unpleasant songs.

"I'm not a fool!" She became anxious and wanted to punch the person who sang the loudest.But the child turned over and dodged.

The children sang even louder when they saw Lovna miss the mark and fall to the ground.

All kinds of grievances and confusions came to her heart. Lovna didn't quite understand why she just smiled and these people had such ill intentions towards her. She had done nothing wrong?

She was just imagining that she would truly become a mage, and then, just like in a fairy tale, she could turn the hut next to the mill into a huge palace, and turn the cats and dogs in front of her door into a gorgeous tall horse, just like in a fairy tale. Transform farm animals into powerful knights and guards...

What's wrong with this?

But it still didn't work, the classroom was still in chaos.The crying Lovna has no one to rely on, while the naughty children who sing unpleasant songs are unscrupulous.

Until someone arrives.

A hand covered with calluses and scars slapped the door panel hard, and the classroom fell silent for a moment.

With tears in her eyes, Lovna raised her head and looked towards the door. She saw a young face.

His eyes were gentler than all the adults Lovna knew.

He has neither the sweat odor of those ruthless warriors nor the pungent perfume of noble nobles. He has a faint scent of grass and trees, and it feels like a stove in winter.

The young man wore a white cassock and a black shawl, with a rectangular pendant symbolizing the church hanging around his neck.This all proves his identity - he is the newly hired teacher of the church, the foreign mage rumored by his classmates.

He lifted up the crying Lovna and drove away the noisy children.He took her to the office to get water to wash her face, and applied medicine to her injured leg.

A long time later, whenever Lovna recalled the first time she met Teacher Charles, she would try her best to think and remember what the teacher said to her that day.

But she couldn't remember.Those words seemed to turn into pleasant notes.

She only remembered the fruity honey the teacher handed her after comforting her.

She loves the taste of candy, just like her teacher.

4. Don’t know what to do at all

After being selected by that weird system and brought to this different world called "Yalan", Ciel was still very uncomfortable with it.

But there is no way, the mission has already begun.

Moreover, this system is quite weird. It only releases an extremely general task without any obvious help or prompts.

The system warned him loudly: "Ciel, celebrate! You are the one chosen to accomplish this great cause - you are now in the western continent of the world of Arran.

"This land has been waiting for hundreds of years to be divided and divided by war.

“But soon, there will be a huge empire that will rise rapidly here, sweeping across most of the continent within a few decades.

“And the person in charge of the empire will be an extremely cruel tyrant and devil.

"Your mission is to find this guy now, before this demon has risen, and become this guy's right-hand man, or even his friend. Then, guide this demon onto the right path and become a truly qualified monarch.

"Otherwise, the empire will quickly fall apart under the cruel and bad rule of the devil. The Western Continent will also fall into a melee with no end in sight.

"As a system, I will help you and guide you to complete this arduous task more efficiently! After you complete all tasks, you will get the reward you desire most!"

This task sounds quite challenging.

"Then what help will you give me?" Charles was also very interested in this.

He has traveled through time anyway, so of course he has to find something to do for himself.

The system replied: "Magic exists in this world, and mages are considered superiors. The help I will give you is to give you the talent to learn spells, master several major languages ​​in the world, and give you a few magic books. .As for whether you can learn it well or not, it depends on you."

"It sounds dispensable. Is there anything else?"

"No more." After the system dinged, it threw a few black hard-cover books in front of Ciel and announced cheerfully: "That's all - ok, Ciel, let's go!"

Charles was stunned at that time: "You haven't told me yet, where is the future tyrant?"

"I don't know either." The system replied sincerely: "I only know that there will be such an empire and such a tyrant in the future, but I don't know anything else."

"No hint at all?"

"There is no prompt, so I need to ask you to find it." The system said confidently: "Didn't I give you a textbook on astrology? After you learn astrology, follow the guidance of the celestial phenomena and slowly search for your destiny. It will guide you to your goal.”

A moment of silence.

"...How big is the western continent of this Arran world? How many countries are there?"

The system quickly calculated and reported a rough figure: "The total area of ​​the Western Continent is about 800 million square kilometers. There are more than 700 countries recognized by the Eternal Church, and more than 200 unrecognized countries. All of them may be The land of Longxing in the future empire."

"How do you want me to find it?!"
