I raise elves in Florian

The brave Simmel.

Thirty-one years after his death.

Imperial territory.

Beijing, Asperger.

"We've finally arrived. This time I'm going to have a good look around."

Looking at the capital city so close at hand, Frillie said with a relaxed expression, "You know, there are many shops in the capital that sell magic books and items."

"I want to get some rest."

Philen said wearily, "I haven't had much rest along the way."

"I also want to get some rest."

Hugh Talke also chimed in from the side.

"Although the idea is good, but..."

Shi Yichen looked to the side and saw Jian Ze and Falxiu come out.

"Lord Shi Yichen, and everyone else, please come with us."

Jian Ze and Faerxiu respectfully addressed Shi Yichen and his group.

"Let's go."

Shi Yichen led Frilian and the others to a house, following Jian Ze and Falshu.

"Tell me! How did the teacher arrange it?"

Shi Yichen had received the secret order from Flame, but he had to meet up with Jian Ze and the others to discuss it together.

"This mission is to be carried out by five first-level mages in addition to Lord Shi Yichen and Lord Flame. It is a large-scale operation."

Jian Ze spread out the map of the capital on the table and said to Shi Yichen that the other first-level mages, such as Raelen, were staying at the Continental Magic Association to prevent a sneak attack by the Empire.

"What the hell? They actually ambushed us at the city gate. I was planning to go on a magic tool shopping spree during the Empire's National Day. What does this have to do with me? What mission? It has nothing to do with me."

Frillie said speechlessly from the side, she was planning to take Shi Yichen shopping with her, but Jian Ze and the others intercepted them before they even started, which ruined her plans.

"Lady Frillien is so sad..."

Looking at Frillie, who was crying beside her, Philon felt inexplicably sad.

"It's okay, we can go shopping later."

Shi Yichen smiled and gently patted Frilian's head, saying comfortingly.

"Okay~_~".

After hearing Shi Yichen's words, Frilian stopped crying and sat obediently beside him.

"Speaking of which, there are five first-level mages, but including me, there are only three first-level mages."

Philon looked at Jian Ze and Falshu and asked, "Shi Yichen is the vice president of the Continental Magic Association, and Frilian didn't even pass the Level 1 Magician test, so the two of them are not considered Level 1 Magicians."

"Besides us, there's also a team consisting of Yubel and Lanto; they've gone ahead to gather intelligence."

Falshu explained to Philen from the side. Yubel, needless to say, is Shi Yichen's disciple, his strength is beyond doubt, and Shi Yichen has also taken out many insurances for Yubel.

Lanto's clone magic is also very deceptive. Unless you are a strong person like Shi Yichen and Seria, you usually can't see it. Even Frilian can be mistaken if she is not paying attention.

But with Frilian's talent for analyzing magic, she could see through it after a few more glances.

"Let me give you a brief overview of the mission. As you know, the Empire of Asberg is celebrating its National Day."

On the last day of National Day, three days from now, a grand ball will be held in the palace, which will be attended by important figures from the Imperial Territory and the northern kingdoms.

Lady Celia and the Guild Master, also known as Lady Flame, were invited to the ball as representatives of the Continental Magic Association.

Jian Ze summarized the key points and told Shi Yichen and the others about the matter.

It's obvious that the Empire is after Celie and Flame, but the Empire doesn't know that the president of the Continental Magic Association is Flame, the founder of human magic.

As for Shi Yichen, everyone only knew that Shi Yichen was one of the heroes, and nothing else.

Humans can live for over a hundred years, so the Empire doesn't really care about these things.

"I see. So the mission isn't to have us protect Celie, is it?"

Frillie couldn't understand it at all. Sending them to protect Celie? If Celie could be assassinated by the Empire, wouldn't they just be sending themselves to their deaths?

And Celie is so powerful, why would she need them to protect her? Are you sure it's not Celie protecting them?

Despite being a mage, hundreds of years ago, Shi Yichen couldn't even defeat Seria in close combat. There was no way around it; Seria knew too many spells, and her defensive magic was always active.

Moreover, she's been with Shi Yichen for so long, who knows how much stronger Seria has become? Plus, her teacher Flame is there too, Flame is a well-known melee mage.

"exactly."

Jian Ze nodded and said.

"According to Linel, a first-class mage who works in the Empire for intelligence, there is a possibility that Lady Celie was assassinated at the ball."

Falshue shared the information they had obtained with everyone present.

"It's time for the empire to change its leadership."

Shi Yichen didn't react to this, since he already knew about the Empire's plans when he first went to investigate it.

"It's unimaginable that they would want to assassinate Lady Celie."

Philon also found it incredible; even Celia found it incredible.

Moreover, there are also Flame, Shi Yichen, and Frilian, who has been enhanced by Shi Yichen. These people will all be by Celie's side. With this lineup, it's just wishful thinking to try to assassinate Celie.

"Indeed, it would be quite difficult to assassinate her. Even I find it hard to imagine myself defeating Celie. Without a doubt, she is the mage who reigns supreme at the pinnacle of humanity in this era."

Frilian nodded in agreement, saying that Celia was indeed very powerful, and was undoubtedly the number one person below the goddess.

"If that's the case, do we still need to be so vigilant?"

Philon also felt that it might be a bit too cautious for them to go together.

"What I just said only applies to battles between mages. Skilled warriors could potentially defeat her."

Frillie shook her head and said to Philon, "For example, the human next to me, who has lived for over a thousand years, can defeat Celie."

"That's about the distance."

Frilian pulled Philen to within about five meters of Shutark.

"At this distance, if Shutark were to suddenly attack you, you would probably die before you could even do anything. There's absolutely no time to cast a spell at this distance."

Frillie said to Philon with a serious expression, "The consequences for a mage to be attacked at close range by a warrior are very serious, except for melee mages."

Frilian was trained by Shi Yichen to be a melee mage, but Frilian is lazy and usually solves problems with her wand.

Even Philon started to pick up a longsword and begin training, so that Philon and the young couple, Shutark, could practice together without putting too much force into it, and incidentally strengthen their relationship.

Yubel goes without saying; she is a melee mage by nature, and her magic is well-suited for close combat. Moreover, Shi Yichen has taught her many spells.
