My Magic Age

Alia likes to sit on the terrace and drink morning tea in the first rays of sunshine.

Before the morning dew disappears from the grass leaves, she makes a plan for the day.

For Alia, there are too many tasks to be completed every day. Not only does she have to manage a large textile workshop, but she also has to coordinate the preparation of materials at the Rune Plate Workshop. Because I fought with the Nibru Spider Man in the Yello plane before, the production rhythm of the Rune Plate Workshop was messed up. Murray would complain to me every time he saw me. Only Alia could sort out the clues in such a messy trivial matter. Every time I returned to the imperial capital, I would not wait for a long time due to insufficient preparation.

Although Alia has Betty who can help her share many things, only Alia is the real decision maker.

I like to stand by the window with a cup of lemon tea and watch Alia chewing the tip of the pen and thinking seriously.

At this time, she was like the elite working woman in my memory. She would record the day's schedule on a piece of yellowed parchment and then put it into action.

In order to preserve the youth that is constantly passing away, exercise in the early morning is essential every day. The elves have their own unique insights on the aspects of maintaining beauty and shaping. The elves advocate a set of gymnastics similar to jujitsu. This set of physical skills from the elf world is very popular among the upper-class nobles and ladies in the imperial capital. I stood quietly by the French window and watched Alia practice the elf physical skills on the oak floor of the terrace.

That kind of physical skills looks a bit like yoga, but there are big differences in the movements. Each movement looks like an archer drawing a bow and shooting an arrow. It is also very hard to do a set of movements. Alia has a plump and soft body. The quality of the movements in this set of physical skills is very high, but at the end, she seems a little powerless. Sweat flows down her neck, and the lapels on her chest are soaked.

Many magicians like to meditate in the early morning, which is the time of the day when the spirit is most abundant. Practicing meditation at this time can often achieve twice the result with half the effort. When I was in El City, I often stayed up late to make magic scrolls, and I would practice meditation in the morning. After arriving in the imperial capital, the time for meditation became less and less.

Alia wiped the sweat off her face with a towel and pushed open the wooden door on the terrace and walked in.

I wanted to hold her in my arms, but she twisted her waist and dodged. She walked towards the bathroom and asked me, "I want to take a bath. Didn't we say we were going to the auction house this morning?"

Leaning against the vertical marble column by the window, I said to Alia, "I thought about it last night and decided not to. I'm worried that once those spider slaves appear on the auction table, my name will probably appear on the front page of the magic newspaper the next day. Since Prince James reminded me to keep a low profile recently, I should try to avoid this kind of limelight if I can."

A maid walked into the bathroom holding a stack of bath towels, and Alia whispered a few words to the maid.

I continued, "Besides, even if I auction off those spider slaves, they are not worth much money, and the subsequent contract scrolls are very troublesome to deal with. I don't want to cause trouble for myself."

Alia took off the crown on her head, and her long hair spread out like a waterfall. She took off her shoes and walked into the bathroom. There was the sound of water splashing. She said to me through the door: "You can try the private auction in the small circle of nobles. If you want to participate, I can introduce you to some friends who have channels in this regard."

"Are you sure you won't cause trouble for me?" I sat on the sofa, and through the open door of the bathroom, I could just see Alia's back leaning against the bathtub. Two maids were squatting behind her, washing her hair.

Alia said to me: "This kind of private auction is quite private, but even if people know about it, how much trouble can it cause?"

Among the spoils brought back from the Yerro plane, the spider slaves are just extras. The things that really have great value are the batch of unidentified black magic crystals. These black magic crystals with merits, I think those nobles in the imperial capital who are quite wealthy but have low titles should have a demand for these black magic crystals. There should be quite a few nobles in the imperial capital who dare not go to the battlefield but are not satisfied with their current titles.

In addition, there are a large number of seized black iron weapons. North Duisburg should be able to eat all of this batch of black iron. In addition, I have a huge demand for the base material of giant crossbow arrows. After these black iron weapons are recast, they can be forged into giant crossbow arrows and sold back to me. This business is not a loss for Earl Robert, the boss of North Duisburg.

In addition, there are a lot of magic herbs brought back from the Yello plane. These magic herbs were collected from the indigenous tribes in the southern area of ​​the Black Forest. For this, I almost emptied a warehouse in the airport town of nearly 20,000 bags of wheat flour. However, the number of primary magic herbs purchased is also quite considerable. I think that with such a large number of primary magic herbs, I should try to contact the Magic Potion Union.

There are also some high-grade leathers collected from the Spider Warlord. I did not sell them. I sent them directly to the leather workshop to customize the Spider Warlord's hard leather armor set. This hard leather armor set is the base material of the top magic pattern structure. If possible, I plan to equip it to the group of orc warriors under Kalancuo.

However, after the victory of the war in the Yello plane this time, there is still a large number of spoils to be dealt with privately.

Some maids appeared in the bathroom one after another carrying clothes, shoes, and jewelry. The maids stood quietly in a row, waiting for Alia to change into new clothes after taking a bath. Only then did I realize that this might be considered a real aristocratic life.

I put down my crossed legs unnaturally and said to Aaliya: "Okay, you can make an appointment for me, any time. Anyway, I have plenty of time before school starts."

"Since you agree, I have received some invitations to private auctions recently. Let me pick the most interesting one." Aaliya raised her hand and motioned to Betty beside her to write it down.

Aaliya asked me again: "What are your plans for the next few days? Are you going back there?"

The 'over there' she mentioned refers to the town of Trum in the Hierro plane. Recently, Catalina has been participating in the later construction of the town in Trum.

Catalina advocates slowing down the industrialization process of the town, giving priority to the construction of public service facilities in the town, and building Trum into a fully functional service town. This can attract some adventurers to locate here, making Trum a A gathering place for adventure groups, so that these adventure groups can boost the economy of the town.

Bernd had a different idea. He hoped that the iron ore mine outside the town could be developed as soon as possible and fully develop the town's industry. However, this plan was temporarily shelved after Catalina and Bernd discussed it.

But I am not going to the town of Trum today. I said to Aaliya: "Prince James helped me get a weapons transaction voucher. Within the limited weapon range, I can fight with the wolves on the Pai Plateau." The orcs make a deal."

The Pai Plateau is currently facing an invasion by the undead army. I am worried that the coalition of orc tribes will not be able to stop the undead army from attacking, or they will suffer heavy losses in the first battle. Several wars with the undead army in the history of Roland Continent have lasted for several years.

This time, the undead army from the underworld invaded the territory of the orc tribe through the ziggurat built by the lich in the Death Forest of Pai Plateau. Pai Plateau became the main battlefield to resist the undead army.

Before the orc tribe sends a letter asking for help, both the Green Empire in the east and the dwarf kingdom in the west will probably stand still and wait for the orc tribe to deal with it on their own.

Aaliya knew about my plan to aid the orc tribe, and after hearing that I mentioned that I had applied for a license to trade weapons with the orc tribe, she asked me in surprise: "Have you prepared those holy silver crossbows so quickly? "

Recently, the magic seal workshop in Xinliu Valley not only has to maintain the daily production of the rune plate workshop in the imperial capital, but also has been supporting the war in the Hierro plane during the previous period. This war requires the supply of a large amount of magic crossbow arrows. Ellie The implication of Ya's words is: During the battle with the Nibru Spider-Man, was the Demon Seal Workshop also producing holy silver crossbow arrows?

The answer is of course yes, and the Holy Silver Crossbows produced so far can already be assembled into the first batch of aid materials to fill a magic airship.

Of course, not all the holy silver crossbows are on board the airship. It is impossible for me to prepare so many in more than a month, and I also need to purchase some supplies that are in short supply for other orc tribes.

However, this batch of supplies is not free assistance. It includes ordinary holy silver crossbow arrows, hemostatic bandages and a batch of sophisticated moon blade axes, all of which require the orcs to pay some price in exchange for them.

I said to Aaliya: "I have intercepted all the holy silver crossbow arrows with magical properties. I plan to keep these crossbow arrows. This time I want to discuss with Marvin and let him take those ordinary giant crossbow arrows to Pagoda. Yi Gaoyuan made this deal with the orcs.”

"What are you going to exchange for these holy silver crossbow arrows?" Aaliya stood up from the bath, and immediately a maid behind her helped her put a towel around her.

I thought about it seriously, corpse fire oil, canned luncheon meat, meat floss bricks, elementary magic herbs... Since the orc tribe is at war with the undead army, the magic herbs will probably be strictly controlled. If I want to buy magic herbs from the orc tribe, I should Not an easy task.

I pinched the corners of my eyes and said to Aaliya: "I haven't thought about this yet. What do you think I should change?"

Surrounded by a group of maids, Aaliya stood in front of the mirror and put on a tight corset, petticoat, and palace-style skirt. She said to me: "I think we should bring back some vermicelli and other special high-end meat products. Since you After taking charge of Qige Trading Company, almost all the tribal-style restaurants in the imperial capital can no longer be opened. "

Indeed, after I took charge of Qige Trading Company, the purchase of vermicelli and some fresh ingredients has basically been suspended. I mainly purchase corpse fire oil and magic herbs, followed by luncheon meat and meat floss bricks. In my opinion, these are the real products. Something, and I happened to be able to use it during the war in the Hierro plane.

Alia and I mentioned purchasing some ingredients from the orc tribe.

At this time, I remembered one thing, that is, there is a temporary shortage of meat in the Hierro plane. I said to Alia: "Maybe we should bring a batch of raw meat back. There is a shortage of meat in the Hierro plane now. Fresh meat cannot be stored for a long time there, and dried meat is a specialty of the orc tribe. It would be a good idea to transport this to Hierro."

Raw meat jerky is one of the most distinctive foods of the orc tribe, but people in the Green Empire do not like to eat it. The main reason is that the taste is very different from fresh meat. Raw meat jerky is dry and hard, and it feels like chewing a piece of bark. .

Alia turned around with some confusion and asked me: "Are you going to transport some raw meat jerky back from the orc tribe? Okay, but I don't like eating that..."

The maids were busy tying the complicated belt on her long skirt. I felt that the Green Empire aristocratic clothes were extremely cumbersome, and in this hot summer, such a heavy long skirt was thick and hot, and it was very uncomfortable. Not convenient for traveling.

I rubbed my nose and thought that when I was traveling on the Pai Plateau, I almost vomited after eating raw meat jerky. But now that I think about that unique food, I miss it more and more. I put on a very experienced look. "In fact, jerky is a test of chefs' cooking skills. It can be cut into thin slices and then... cooked with vegetables. Do you want to try it tonight? I can try it," he said. A dish of peas stewed with jerky.”

Aria heard me say that she wanted to go to the kitchen to cook in person, and she was very interested and said for a moment: "I don't remember that there is this recipe in the Imperial Capital and El City. There probably are no peas in the orc tribe. This dish is your own." Created?”

"...That's right!" I touched my nose feeling a little guilty.

At this time, a magic caravan parked by the fountain outside the villa. I said hello to Alia and ran downstairs quickly.

The Imperial Capital, which is located in the Mazzaro Crater Basin, comes a little late every morning. The people of the Imperial Capital have become accustomed to this kind of life of going to bed late and getting up late. It can be said that the night market of the Imperial Capital is so colorful, but the morning of the Imperial Capital is It looked so pale. Except for the night watchman who would run out and extinguish the street lights, there was almost no one on the stone road in the third block.

On the way to Qige Trading Company, the closer you get to the seventh block, you will find more and more civilians going to work in the workshops early. When you reach the seventh block, the streets are already full of people. , there were many vendors selling various cheap snacks on both sides of the street, and the magic caravan could only move forward slowly amid the flow of people.

In my eyes, this imperial capital has gradually become more alive...
