The days of marching are boring. We march during the day and sleep at night. We only have one hot meal at night. We eat dry food in the morning and at noon. Even the lord and Kenny eat the same thing. Don't ask how Bennett knew this.

Sera never took off her armor, and the little girl would follow her at all times. Bennett probably already knew the job of a knight's squire. The knight's squire of the female mercenary was a handsome man, and he really took care of her meticulously. Bennett mourned for the man and was glad for himself that he did not become a knight's squire, which was not something that ordinary people could do.

Bennett offered to take care of Sera on behalf of the little girl more than once. He was really curious about how wearing this armor could solve personal problems. Unfortunately, Sera had already seen through his dirty thoughts and refused on the spot.

A week passed like this, and the team arrived near a lake. The lord ordered the team to take turns to rest thoroughly.

Cheers resounded through the sky. The troops led by the lord went into the water first and washed off the filth on their bodies under the envious gaze of everyone. For the past week, the soldiers had only been traveling and sleeping, and everyone was smelly. Sera did not allow Bennett to stay with her on the second day of the march.

When the first troops went into the water, the other troops were not idle either. The soldiers set up camp and lit a bonfire. Although there was no beer, they put the sausages, dried meat, fruits and vegetables they had been given into the pot and cooked them into a thick soup that tasted pretty good. They drank this bowl of thick soup and sang and danced by the lake.

Soldiers in the lake would sometimes catch a fish. Those who caught fish were lucky, as they got one of the few snacks. There were crocodiles in the water, but unfortunately they could only retreat in front of the crowd. Occasionally a few unlucky ones would be caught. Bennett could already smell the aroma of barbecue.

Sera set up a big tent today, and Bennett already knew what she was going to do. The hot water outside made Bennett feel particularly thirsty.

The second team to go into the water was Kenny's team, and the third was Serra's team. No one complained, as being last this time meant they would be first next time.

Bennett did not join them in the water, but went into Serra’s large tent, but was unfortunately turned out, as she was not the only lady bathing in it.

Well, Bennett also became one of the people being thrown into the lake. The moment he came out of the water, Bennett really felt that he had lost several pounds. As a special person, Bennett also received special care. The chef's extra meals were definitely good things. The salt and pepper sausages had never given Bennett such a feeling. It was really uncomfortable to eat with ordinary soldiers these days. What they ate was really not something a human could eat. Bennett also admired the lord and Kenny for being able to eat and live with the soldiers during the expedition.

After finishing dinner, Bennett asked the cook to prepare a portion for Serra as well. Unexpectedly, the cook was Serra's man, and he made it clear that Serra had instructed not to give her special treatment. Well, Serra was a red warrior, and some people were part of the corrupt privileged class.

The ladies finally ended their special enjoyment. Bennett had been waiting eagerly for a long time. The first one to find him was the female mercenary. She solemnly invited Bennett to go to the grove next to them to talk about their ideals in life. Bennett looked at Sera who came out of the tent and rejected her with firm words.

Sera rolled her eyes at Bennett and walked towards Bennett's tent. Bennett followed her like a dog. In fact, Bennett was not the only one who was hungry and thirsty. Sera was also particularly proactive today.

Finally, the two of them walked out of the tent refreshed. The female mercenary came back with several men, and they all seemed to be in a good mood. Sera, you are really a goddess.

Sera made it clear that there would be no additional meals, but Bennett still couldn't just not prepare anything, right?

"What are you doing, Bennett?"

"Prepare a surprise for the soldiers."

Bennett opened the dragon skin book, runes lit up, and the surrounding magic power began to stir. A gust of wind seemed to completely lift up the freshwater lake. Huge waves over ten meters high swept up countless fish and shrimps and beat them on the shore. This was a derivative spell of Mervyn's natural disaster spell, which consumed a huge amount of magic power. Fortunately, Mervyn was not here, otherwise he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

The huge waves gradually subsided, and the cheers of the people on the shore turned into new huge waves. The huge waves left behind tens of thousands of fish and shrimps, and even a few crocodiles were beaten to death on the shore with their mouths slightly open. People swarmed over, shouting words like "Long live the wizard". At this moment, they actually forgot to be afraid of the evil wizard.

Sera looked at all this in amazement, not caring about any red thoughts anymore. Since everyone had it anyway, she didn't need it so she rushed in and grabbed a crocodile. Bennett came out and prepared the grill.

"Now you and the soldiers are eating and living together."

"no more chance."

Bennett didn't know whether he heard Sera's words, but he knew very well whether the crocodile meat was well-seasoned. It was sprinkled with spices and had a crispy chicken flavor.

The lively atmosphere here also attracted the attention of the lord and Kenny. The two of them also lived and ate with the army. However, it was so joyful here, but as I said, now they all ate and lived together.

The female mercenary invited Bennett to stay in her tent again tonight. Sera was still there. Bennett naturally rejected her righteously, but she still kissed Bennett before leaving.

The lord and Kenny also came, and they brought good wine. After the lord sat down, he ordered a glass of beer for each soldier. The atmosphere in the camp reached a climax. People forgot the wizard's contribution and shouted the lord's greatness.

Bennett didn't care about these. He was becoming more and more like Mervyn. If it weren't for his parents, Aimee and Sera, Bennett might still be staying in the Mage Tower every day, occasionally coming out to marvel at the miracle of life, and then going back to study boring spells.

When Kenny, Darcy and Aimee were born, Mervyn came out to hold them, so Mervyn has always been bothered by Darcy. His long life has made him less interested in worldly things, but the touching moments of life have prevented him from falling completely into darkness.

Touching the pendant on his chest, Bennett remembered the figure on the high tower. The grayish-white color in the teacher's eyes was very worrying.

The sounds of revelry gradually faded away at night, and what remained was the sound of soldiers washing clothes by the lake. The army will stay here for another day tomorrow, and tonight and tomorrow, they have to deal with everything as quickly as possible.

At night, after Sera finished dealing with the clothes for changing, she entered Bennett's tent again. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

The next day, the two got up, ate a quick breakfast, and began to clean the stains on Sera's armor. It had been worn for a week without being washed, and the armor really smelled bad. The two sat directly on the open space to wash it. The little girl fetched buckets of water from the lake. Sera washed the armor with the water, and Bennett applied oil to the armor pieces that Sera had washed for maintenance. The two were very quiet, and the little girl watched them from the side, and many people around were watching them.

Envy, this may be the voice of most people.
