Vesta is Edward's other comrade in arms. Grimm, Edward, and Vesta are arguably close friends. After Edward beca king, he initially wanted to appoint Vesta as the Grandmaster of this kingdom.
But Vesta refused. Because there was no other choice, Edward was forced to give his teacher position as Grandmaster. Although at first his teacher also refused, but after seeing that there was no suitable candidate, his teacher finally accepted the position.
Ti passed, and Weston, who was Edward's teacher, finally retired. Edward imdiately informs Vesta to take this position, but the answer given by Vesta amazes Edward.
'I'm old, I just want to live in peace, but I also want to keep helping you, my friend.' Vesta's answer gave Edward a headache; he didn't know anymore who would take the position of Grandmaster. His last choice was his teacher, another student, naly Noel. But his opinion of her was Noel did not have enough experience in making decisions.
As per Vesta's request, Edward gives him the Guardian position, which is only one level below the Grandmaster. While a Grandmaster equal to a marshal in a kingdom with the ability to summon a little natural disaster, a Guardian is a person who has reached the apex of humanity, a 3rd Swordsman class.
A Guardian's ability is arguably the equivalent of a Master Wizard / Witch, and a Guardian strength is only slightly weaker than a Grandmaster.
With Vesta as Guardian, Clentine, the wife of Vesta, clearly has power in society. Not to ntion that Vesta is a good friend of King Edward, allowing Clentine to make a personal request to her husband for the king's direct approval.
...
When Desmond read all this information, he sighed. " How troubleso. With that position, summoning those few first-class wizards is not impossible." Desmond added, "And maybe this is their real behavior ..." Rembering the previous quarrel, sothing flashed in his eyes.
Desmond closed the parchnt of the book and took out another parchnt of the book. Apart from reading books about several well-known families, he also read books on each person's personal experiences.
Like a book made by wizards several hundred years ago, which contains their life journey from toddler to old, Desmond felt interested in books with models like this. Also while reading this book, besides getting interesting knowledge, he also seed to get so insight from them.
"The prices speak the quality," Desmond muttered. After reading through one book, which only contained a few pages, he took another book.
Although books are expensive, the brief experience he got can be invaluable. Desmond wondered why people in this world didn't buy books? Or maybe they are busy spending their money to train and have so fun?
"Knowledge is power!" Desmond snapped and then shook his head.
If the people knew Desmond bought a book for the range of 10-50 coins were the sa as their small shop's monthly inco and then mocking them, they would shout Desmond at his face, telling how much expensive only for one book.
Therefore, people who have lots of books are considered rich because they can buy things that are "useless" according to them. They prefer to buy a spellbook rather than soone's diary.
...
Just as Desmond was about to pick up the new parchnt book, the mirror that was used earlier to communicate with Clentine let out a faint light over and over again.
"Hmm? Could it be her again? " Desmond sat on his bed and held the mirror while channeling his Unique Energy.
The mirror reflection slowly changed from an image of itself to sothing colored but still in a blurry state.
After a few seconds, the mirror's reflection beca clearer, revealing an atmosphere like in a garden. There is a butterfly statue that releases water from each of its wings. The water then flows to every plant in the garden.
Far behind the garden, there was a giant gate with many royal motifs on the gate walls. The gate was enormous and was also being guarded by two guards.
Desmond was initially surprised when he saw that Clentine, who usually always communicated in a room, suddenly changed her taste. His first thought was that maybe Clentine finally wanted to show the luxury of her house after he learned the background of her family?
But that thought imdiately changed when Desmond saw a giant gate in the royal carved porch and two guards. He was now very shocked and widened his eyes.
At the sa ti, a shadow ca from the direction of the gate. Desmond, who had been shocked, imdiately returned to his senses and narrowed his eyes to see the person clearly.
The shadow slowly approached until it finally revealed a girl. This girl has long blonde hair. She is wearing a white dress that has blue motifs on the collar and sleeves.
This girl also has a face that is no less beautiful than Diana or Clentine. Seeing Desmond's face in the reflection of the mirror, the girl smiled.
If Diana and Clentine give Desmond the impression of a passionate, ambitious, and angry woman, then the girl in this reflection gives off a warm, calm and peaceful impression.
Desmond rembers the sa feeling when he did the trait check at church. All the sisters there gave off smiles and an aura that was so pure and peaceful.
"Hello, Master Desmond." The girl's voice opened Desmond to refocus on her. As he clearly saw the girl's appearance in front of him, astonishnt, strange, and confusion appeared in his expression.
"Hello, Miss Elizabeth." The girl is Elizabeth, the biological daughter of King Edward and the princess of the North Kingdom. The fact that makes Desmond confused is how Elizabeth could contact him through this mirror.
Unlike Clentine. Since she was the one who gave Desmond this mirror, then she must logically have cast so spell or sothing that could contact him continuously from afar.
Desmond realized this fact after he ordered the system to scan the mirror that Clentine had given him. This mirror has the sa concept as a computer, where each computer has an IP address.
If users know the computer's IP address, then that users can establish a connection between them and the IP address they are referring to.
And in this case, Desmond suspected that his 'IP address' had been shared with Elizabeth, which allowed her to contact Desmond's mirror.
"Before, I wanted to ask. How can Miss Elizabeth contact through this mirror?" Even though it has the sa concept, magic is magic, and science is science.
This mirror does not require a processor like a computer or a connection to turn on and connect them.
"That's an easy question." Elizabeth chuckled. Her laughter subconsciously left Desmond dazzled a little.
Suddenly a hand appeared beside Elizabeth. She took the hand and showed him a new mirror. "Watch and learn." Elizabeth smiled before chanting a spell.
The new mirror shines and shows Desmond's face that daydread of seeing Elizabeth's action. "As long as the energy I store in your mirror is still active, I can contact you anyti, Master Desmond." After that, Elizabeth turned off the new mirror, and it seed like a hand appeared again, taking the mirror from her.
"I see, so that ans you saved this energy at the ti of the incident where Clentine called to get the healer, right?" Elizabeth was a little surprised that Desmond could know firsthand and even understood the concept she had just demonstrated.
Elizabeth smiled back. "As expected of master Desmond, you are always perceptive." Elizabeth added, "Yes, that's right." She then looked at Desmond's body and found that his hand had returned.
"Even though you've said it by letter, but I'm still surprised to see it in person. " Elizabeth covered her mouth with a fan while glancing at Desmond's face to see his reaction.
Even after Desmond found soone who could help him, Elizabeth did not ask that person's identity. She understood that everyone has their own secret, so she imdiately covered her mouth to prevent further inquiries.
"Indeed," Desmond answered with a flat expression. Actually, I also was surprised by the effect of this regeneration, Desmond thought in his mind. "So why did Miss Elizabeth contact this ti?" Desmond rembers vividly that he has no unfinished business with Elizabeth.
"You are so cold, Master Desmond." Elizabeth lowered her fan and showed her seductive red lips; her cheeks were also slightly flushed, giving a shy princess the impression. "I just want to know your preparations for the next 3 years."
Desmond's expression was suddenly serious at this. Elizabeth's words and actions are quite the opposite; if it weren't for him to focus on listening and ignoring Elizabeth's behavior, maybe he would have guessed that Elizabeth was teasing him.
Elizabeth noticed the change in Desmond's expression; she hurriedly explained further, "I don't an to interfere or even want to co along with you, master Desmond; I just wanted to know if you don't mind."
Seeing Desmond, who was silent without answering her words, made Elizabeth nervous; she panicked and thought of explaining the reason for her question again.
"No problem, Miss Elizabeth." Desmond breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It's really not unlike that woman. Or maybe it's because my relationship with Elizabeth is just acquaintances?
