Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome
Chapter 19: Gloria
Lilith got on the same carriage again, but the maid she was accompanying was the round-faced Bella.
This time the team was even longer than last time. Melissa sent almost all of her knights and raised a flag with the Taylor family crest. Nearly a hundred people guarded the carriages in the middle, which was a spectacular sight.
James Friar went to inspect the mining area again, and only Melissa was still sitting in the carriage to say goodbye to Lilith. Hoffman and Ram stood side by side as representatives of the male and female servants, waiting to see off the young lady who was about to embark on the journey of magic training.
"Madam's wisdom is truly admirable." The chief butler tried to flatter the Countess through the head maid and said softly. "Magicians have no right to inherit the title. In this way, you don't have to worry about who will inherit the title. Tanding County must belong to Miss Leila." Hoffman thought he had seen the truth and winked at Ram complacently, indicating that he was also one of his own.
"Miss Leila will inherit Dragonfang Castle, and Madam's title of earl." Ram replied expressionlessly. "As for the ownership of the title of Viscount, we, the servants, do not need to interfere."
"Well... Madam, there is another child in your belly. This way, the two children will inherit their parents' titles respectively. Madam, you are really smart..." Hoffman felt that he was so smart. He finally understood Madam's good intentions these days. He would analyze the pros and cons to Lord Freyr later. He believed that Lord Freyr would be so moved that he would work harder to repair the relationship with Madam.
This time, Ram didn't even bother to say anything. He just left the servant team and went to wait for his lady by the carriage.
"Lilith..." Melissa's eyes were filled with tears, and she held Lilith in her arms reluctantly. "I really hope you can stay here for a few more days. I have so many things I want to do with you." However, the school year of Goletia Academy starts in September, and Lilith's entrance examination came hastily. There was less than a month from receiving the official admission notice to the start of school. She could only hastily prepare and then embark on the journey to the academy.
Lilith was also reluctant to leave, "I will write to you often." Oh, it's so sad that I have to separate from my beautiful elder sister to go to school.
Melissa turned around and took a long wooden box, saying gently, "I was worried that it would be too late, luckily it was delivered earlier today." She opened the wooden box, and a slender sword lay quietly in the box. The scabbard was not gorgeous, with only occasional fine metal lines wrapped around it, flashing a restrained light spot in the sun.
"This is..." Lilith took it with great surprise and rubbed it carefully.
"You are my daughter, Lilith." Melissa looked at her with a smile. "Dragonfang Castle has the best swordsmith in the empire. Every child in the Taylor family will have their first sword chosen by their parents. Although you want to be a magician...but I don't want you to lack anything more than other children in the Taylor family. You should also have a sword from Dragonfang Castle."
"Melissa..." Lilith was really about to cry. They had only known each other for a short time, but Melissa was so good to her. Although she did not embark on the path of knighthood like her father, she was like the legendary knight, upright, kind, protective of the weak, and she had a heart of gold.
"Well, it's getting late. It will get hot soon. Let's get going." Melissa patted her. She knew that they would still have to part no matter how long it took. She would rather turn a long pain into a short one. She waved her hand and jumped off the carriage.
After saluting Melissa, the knights mounted their horses one by one, and the long team finally started moving.
Lilith sat in the carriage, looking at Bella who was about to cry, and she was filled with mixed feelings. When she was in Shelley Town, although she was concerned about Mary's family, she always felt that she was out of this world. It was like entering a huge amusement park, treating everyone as NPCs, and she just wanted to experience a life that was very different from her previous life. But after leaving Shelley Town, she met lovely people like Melissa, Ram, and Bella. Her heart seemed to be tied up little by little by these lively and kind people, and her ties with this world became closer and closer. There was some pressure, but... Lilith hugged the wooden box in her arms.
It feels really good to be cared for by others...
She found a place to safely put the sword case, and looked back at Bella with red eyes, which was both pitiful and cute. Unlike her, who had lived two lives, Bella had never left Tanding County since she was born, and her activities were almost limited to the area around the Friar family's manor. This was the first time she had left her hometown since she was a child.
Her pitiful appearance reminded Lilith of her first long journey in her previous life. She couldn't help but smile and wanted to coax this lovely girl. "Bella Bella, when we rest later, I will make you a meal you've never eaten before, okay? It's super delicious!"
Bella wiped her tears, swallowed her saliva, sobbed and shook her head. "No, Mrs. Ram told me to take good care of you and not let you do anything dangerous. How can I let you cook?"
Lilith smiled and turned around to lie down, but suddenly she remembered that she seemed to have forgotten something important, so she turned back. "Bella, did Ram tell you anything else?" Lilith pleaded, "For example, did she tell you to listen to my instructions from now on?"
Bella continued to sob and shake her head, "Mrs. Ram said nothing of the kind, young lady."
As expected, I forgot something important! Lilith lay down in despair.
…………
Fortunately, although Bella was too honest, she was still a young girl and much more lively than Ram. Lilith chatted with her every day, so she didn't find the journey boring. The carriage kept shaking and finally arrived at the destination at the end of August.
After hearing the report from the Knight Commander, Lilith opened the car window and looked out, and found that she had entered a very large city. There were tall towers in the distance and many pedestrians coming and going. Most of them were parents who came to register with their children. There were also many boys and girls carrying their own bags, who passed by their team in a hurry.
Lilith's group was too conspicuous. Many people couldn't help but take a few glances when they passed by, and then pulled their children to the side to avoid them. Lilith raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that Goletia was in such a bustling city. She thought it would be an ancient castle in the forest far away from people. It was completely different from what she imagined. She looked at the spire in the distance and turned to ask the Knight Commander, "How long will it take us to get to Goletia today?"
The Knight Commander looked at Lilith in surprise, "Miss, we are here."
Lilith was a little dazed and didn't react for a moment.
The Knight Commander kicked his horse's belly and said, "Miss, this entire city belongs to Goletia."
Lilith was shocked. She repeatedly checked whether the Knight Commander was joking with her. She almost stared holes in the Knight Commander's armor. Are you kidding me? Isn't it difficult for your school to recruit students? How can you be so rich and occupy such a big city? Lilith looked at the buildings of different styles that stretched almost to the horizon in the distance, but were put together in an unusually harmonious way. She fell into deep thought. Compared with this place, Tanding County can only be regarded as a combination of urban and rural areas. If there were no white spires described by Teacher Kenny here, she would believe that this was the capital High Court, okay? Lilith couldn't help but mutter and complain in a low voice.
"Highgarden is indeed not far from Goletia, they are just across the river. Some old people used to like to call them the Twin Cities." Although the Knight Commander is not good at humor, he has good hearing. "If you have a day off, you can also go to Highgarden for a visit."
Lilith really regretted that when Melissa wanted to give her the map, she should have accepted it decisively. Otherwise, she would not have made such a joke. "Then let's complete the admission procedures as soon as possible, so that you can finish your work and return home as soon as possible."
The Knight Commander nodded and led his horse back to the front of the team.
