Reincarnation Band Magician

Those were two beautiful suits, one for his and one for her.

Qing's piece is a white narrow-waist double-breasted lapel trench coat and a black cape.

Miss Xiangzi's dress was a black and red long skirt, which was very similar to the one Qing had chosen at the beginning, except that the fabric and workmanship were more refined, the length fell to about the calf, and she also had a pair of black lace-up boots.

When the two of them shook their clothes and gestured to each other, there was a strange sense of harmony.

"As a businessman, I've always been thinking about how to make a memorable gift. As for adventurers, nothing is more suitable than the clothes they wear. So, ever since that incident with Daphneel, I've been thinking about gifts, my old friend—"

Norm extended his hand, and the old steward touched his chest and smiled reservedly.

"It has a photographic memory. It was then commissioned by professionals to design and tailor it so it wouldn't affect its movements. It was treated with a special potion, giving it a certain degree of defensive power. Blood and other dirt wouldn't easily stick to it...

"As a businessman, I personally believe that appearance is also very important. The Southern Hero, who journeyed to the northern plateau with his undamaged and unstained cloak and robe, left a deep impression on many. He was a hero who brought aspirations and hope... I hope you enjoy it."

Qing unfolded his cloak, which rustled in the wind, and he seemed to hear the words of the mustache uncle again:

"A handsome cape is a must, young man."

His fingers stroked the delicate and sturdy fabric and he nodded, "I like it very much."

Ms. Toyokawa nodded modestly. "Thank you, me too. Please convey my thoughts to the producers. It's great."

"That's good."

After that, he changed his clothes and put his swords on his waist.

The new look won unanimous praise, and the president said that such an image would make it easier to gain fame.

Appearance is also a hero's weapon.

……

The beautiful cloak fascinated Qing for a long time. When he was resting, he would hold it and touch it, making strange laughter.

The focus is less on oneself.

Miss Xiangzi, who was not dissatisfied with this, took the clothes and put them on.

"It's a bit cold in the northern plateau this season. Qing is a warrior, so lend it to me."

"Well, Xiangzi looks very beautiful in it too."

"Forgive you."

So fast.

Ignoring these minor incidents, they focused on studying the goddess's commission.

"Heading towards the Empire..."

Qing looked at the radar to confirm the direction the other party was heading.

……

PS: I couldn’t muster any energy during the day. There are still two chapters to finish, but it will be a bit late. I suggest you go to bed early.

Brave: 290, Teacher and Noble Cemetery

"The Empire's Great Barrier is truly a marvelous structure. Even if damaged, it can slowly repair itself. I remember over five hundred years ago, this place was still mountainous, and the Demon King once made a move here—I found it. Well, that's what it means to add a tail to a tiger. It's better not to fix something that's pointless."

The great demon raised his hand and lightly tapped his fingertips, blocking the magic power for a moment.

Nothing happened.

When the faint barrier reappeared, it was already behind the two of them.

The petite "girl" who hid her horns walked on the land of the empire's border with a girl who was equally petite but had lighter green hair. They looked like a pair of sisters.

"What do those words mean?"

"Which ones?"

"that is……"

Teacher Sollettier teaches common vocabulary.

From the surprise of a few days ago to the numbness now.

This child can memorize words after listening to them only once. Although he still has some big problems with grammar, he has mastered the simple vocabulary for daily communication.

However, their communication now mainly relies on the language they learned from Qing.

Besides, there are more important things than this.

Solitude glanced at the girl, now smiling, infectiously and full of warmth.

Although the demons couldn't feel it, it was enough to tell the difference.

Now it’s “number three”.

Number One is polite and gentle, and cares deeply about Xiangzi and Qing.

Number Two seems to be good at disguising himself, occasionally showing his childish side.

Number three is cheerful and sunny, and more mature than the first two.

Number Four is silent and rational, and occasionally asks about knowledge about plants.

Number five...I can't understand him. He's also very silent, but seems very afraid of people.

Solitaire believed this was a special kind of magic.

A similar concept existed during the Imperial period: dividing thoughts into multiple parts to improve the efficiency of acquiring knowledge, shorten the time of constructing magic, or release multiple magics at the same time.

There are no successful people recorded in the books. Without exception, they all went crazy. The only difference was the length of time it took them to go from normal to crazy.

Is this a success?

The five minds existed for roughly equal periods of time, but only one appeared at the same time, and none of them showed any talent in using magic or building things quickly.

Solitaire only taught her simple water ball magic, and she—or rather, they—quickly got the hang of it. Under different thinking patterns, they displayed different characteristics:

Expand contact area, increase rotation speed, increase temperature, disorderly movement, and stop.

But they were never released at the same time.

It's as strange as cramming five people into one body.

But this is also a very unique talent.

All magic used in combat is essentially offense and defense, an extremely complicated game of rock-paper-scissors. The more magic you master, the more means of restraint you have, and theoretically the more advantageous the battle.

Therefore, when magicians fight at the same level, it will test their understanding of the enemy even more.

If someone guesses whether the next move is scissors or paper, then you’re done for.

If her thoughts could switch freely, Mu would be at a great advantage in such a battle. Perhaps, after growing up, she would be no less capable than Xiangzi.

Of course, when the gap in strength is too big, everything is just fancy.

He is worthy of being the one chosen by the goddess. If she had not met Qing, she would probably be happy to take this child apart to study his technology.

It's no longer possible now. Qing is a bit scary now. The close combat skills are combined with the skills of concealing magic...

Solitaire didn't think she could maintain the highest level of vigilance all day long, and just one mistake would end her magical life.

When Qing lowers his bottom line, even the demons will feel terrified.

Her smile turned friendly again at the thought.

After finishing the word learning, we continued to communicate.

"Is this 'empire' strong?"

"Yes, it is the strongest 'human force' on this continent."

"How strong is it exactly?"

"Probably, excluding some exceptional beings, all human nations combined are that strong. That's the official data, but war doesn't just count these."

——Otherwise, humanity would have been destroyed long ago.

……

The target is Weisze, the famous "cemetery of nobles" in the empire. After being defeated in the political struggle in the court, being exiled here is the last dignity.

Of course, falling off a horse, dying of fright, drowning... are not uncommon news.

Perhaps they were addicted to power struggles and became even more obsessed with it after their failure. After arriving in Weize, those nobles did not give up and used their power to mess around in the city. The political turmoil led to disorder in public security and corruption and chaos.

The lords appointed by the empire are just figureheads, unable and unwilling to stop the corruption. Instead, they will go along with it. The nobles who control the city behind the scenes are happy to see it happen and reap the benefits.

To put it more clearly how bad it was there - there wasn't a single monk there.

A church was built and a statue of the goddess was sculpted, but no monks moved in. It is said that many monks who came here to heal the wounds of the nobles committed suicide, and some even lost the ability to use divine magic.

"It's a pretty terrible place, is there anyone who can change it?"

"Impossible! Even if the demons were to transform into humans, those evil spirits wouldn't be able to grow human hearts and lungs, huh!"

Well, this information was obtained from a one-eyed old woman in the previous village. She was more hostile to the nobles of Wei Ze than to the demons.

Solitaire liked to get to the bottom of things, so she wandered around the village and got more information.

As a village formed by refugees, a considerable number of people here come from there.

High taxes, poor public security, corrupt officials... these people risked being eaten by demons and monsters and fled here.

A cruel government is more ferocious than a tiger.

However, perhaps it is because he has escaped from the demons and monsters that he finds the nobles more terrifying.

Back to the old woman, her three sons all died in Weisser.

The eldest son was a gardener. Because the branches he pruned were too sharp, the clothes of the nobles playing in the flowers were scratched. A horsewhip hit his cheek, and the wound festered and he died at home wailing.

The younger son was better off, as his skull was crushed by a horse in the street.

The grief-stricken second son went to the police station, but at night he was put in a sack and thrown back in front of the door, his body limp and without a single bone intact.

"When she escaped, her husband's legs were chopped off by the guards. He died over ten years ago. Now she's completely mad, and keeps saying that if anyone can help her kill the nobles, she'll give them the ancestral treasure as a reward...

"Attacking a noble is a serious crime. How could anyone do that? Ah, me too. I took a madman's words seriously. She's quite pitiful. If you think about it, it shouldn't be a big deal. No nobles will pass by here."

This piqued Solitaire's interest.

[If this is the case, Qing doesn't seem to care. ]

"Mu, have you bought clothes? I have something to do. See you at the village entrance later."

She went to visit the old woman's residence.

In the crack of the bed, Solitaire felt a slight magical fluctuation.

Gently knock on the wood and you will find a groove inside. It seems to have been there during construction and is not visible from the outside.

Hidden inside is a very beautiful emerald necklace, which is a magical tool that accelerates the recovery of magic power. This simple style was indeed popular in the empire hundreds of years ago.

She picked it up.

The one-eyed old woman was on the street, searching for an impossible person who was willing to help her kill the noble.

……

Back at the clothing store, Solitaire looked at Mu, who had changed into clothes from this world, and walked over to her, smiling and stroking her neck.

"it's beautiful."

"Thank you."

She nodded like a small animal.

【It’s number five now.】

Solitaire opened her palm and showed it to her.

"It still needs some decoration, how about this?"

"So beautiful... No, no, no, isn't it too expensive?"

"It seems so, but it's nothing to me. It will be solved in a short while. It's a good opportunity to confirm whether my friend is there."

"Even so..."
