nBy the time he returned, the caravan guards were already cleaning up the mess.
n
n
nCorpses were strewn all over the ground.
n
n
n
n
nThere were robbers and guards.
n
n
nAll of them had sad expressions on their faces.
n
n
nBut when they saw him, all of these emotions turned into excitement.
n
n
nAll of them looked at him with respect and even admiration.
n
n
n
n
nThe image of Joelson, who was slightly thin, was magnified in their hearts.
n
n
n“Sir Joelson!”
n
n
nBenson came up to him excitedly. He looked at Joelson with a hint of respect.
n
n
n“Thank you for saving our entire Caravan!”
n
n
n
n
nJoelson waved his hand indifferently. It was nothing. He just wanted to find someone to test his fireball spell. Moreover, if he didn’t do anything, the bandits would definitely find trouble with him in the end. It would also affect his speed of arriving at the capital.
n
n
n“How are the casualties?”
n
n
nBenson’s mood fell. He said sadly, “Eight guards died and five were seriously injured. When we go back, the Chamber of Commerce will give a certain amount of compensation to their families. However, we almost wiped out all the bandits. These damn bastards.”
n
n
nJoelson nodded and told Benson that the leader had been killed by him.
n
n
nBenson let out a sigh of relief, but soon his face showed shock.
n
n
n“I didn’t expect Sir Joelson to be a powerful third-rank mage. If I remember correctly, you are only sixteen years old.”
n
n
n
n
nBenson had thought that Joelson had the potential to become a mage, so he took the initiative to talk to him and get to know him.
n
n
nHe didn’t expect to meet a powerful third-rank mage by accident.
n
n
nA sixteen-year-old third-rank mage?
n
n
nThere were only a few in the entire Alcott Empire.
n
n
nA genuine genius!
n
n
nJoelson was stunned, shook his head and said, “No, I’m not a third-rank mage, I’m just a first-rank mage.”
n
n
n“Impossible!”
n
n
nBenson could not help but say, “To be able to cast a fireball instantaneously, your strength must be at least third-rank!”
n
n
n
n
nOnly then did Joelson realize that he seemed to have done something amazing.
n
n
nAll mages needed a spell to guide them in using magic, and they all needed a certain amount of time to guide them. To be able to cast a spell instantaneously required at least tens of thousands of times of practice or some special talent.
n
n
nOnly mages who were at least tier three could cast a level-one spell instantaneously.
n
n
nAfter Joelson explained it to Benson, Benson was even more delighted.
n
n
nBenson clearly regarded Joelson as someone with a special talent.
n
n
nA 16-year-old Tier-1 mage was also an outstanding achievement.
n
n
nMoreover, he had the talent to cast an instant spell, and he was a genius!
n
n
n“Please allow me to take care of some things first. Later, I will express our most sincere gratitude to Sir Joelson on behalf of the Lucca Chamber of Commerce.”
n
n
nJoelson nodded and was willing to accept it. After all, he had saved so many lives. If he did not give others a chance to thank him, they would feel embarrassed.
n
n
nBenson quickly left and gathered a few people to make preparations.
n
n
nLittle Martin rushed up from the outside, his face full of excitement and ecstasy.
n
n
n“Young master, you are already a noble magician?! You were so powerful just now! That’s great! You are really too handsome. When the baron hears this news, he will definitely jump up in joy. That’s Great!”
n
n
nYoung Martin was so happy that he did not know what to say.
n
n
n
n
nBecause of Joelson, the others also treated young Martin with some respect. This made him feel even more proud and honored to be young Master Joelson’s servant.
n
n
nJoelson smiled and shook his head. He returned to his carriage to recover the spiritual power he had used during the battle.
n
n
nWhen night fell, Benson knocked on the door of Joelson’s carriage.
n
n
n“Sir Joelson.”
n
n
nBenson greeted him respectfully, “I’m here on behalf of the Lucca Chamber of Commerce to express our most sincere gratitude for helping us today.”
n
n
nJoelson noticed that there was a carriage behind Benson.
n
n
nIt was the carriage that was covered with a thick black cloth that he had been curious about previously.
n
n
n“Sir Joelson, weren’t you curious before? I didn’t tell you the truth at that time, but now I can give it to you as a small gift. I hope you will like it.”
n
n
nBenson took two steps back and ordered someone to remove the black cloth on the carriage.
n
n
nJoelson was stunned.
n
n
nSo this was not a carriage at all, but a prison carriage.
n
n
nThere was a huge cage on the carriage.
n
n
nIt was made of steel bars, like a huge birdcage.
n
n
nInside the cage was a girl.
n
n
nA very beautiful girl.
n
n
nHer skin was white, and her facial features were exquisite. Her long, pale golden hair hung down, giving off a faint luster under the moonlight.
n
n
nHer sky-blue eyes were as beautiful as a lake, but at this moment, they were filled with timidity and fear.
n
n
nThe clothes on the girl’s body were very strange as if they were woven from leaves and vines.
n
n
nWhat puzzled Joelson the most was her ears.
n
n
nSpindle-shaped, with a sharp tip.
n
n
nThis was an elf?!
n
n
n“The elf girl from the Elf Forest is our most precious cargo.”
n
n
nBenson introduced Joelson.
n
n
n“The elves will not give their virginity until they are a hundred years old. She is only fifty years old this year, and she is still keeping her virginity.”
n
n
nBenson’s face showed a smile that all men understood.
n
n
n“Then, I wish you a wonderful night.”
n
n
nAfter saying that, Benson left without waiting for Joelson to speak.
n
n
nJoelson felt a little helpless.
n
n
nHe never thought that Benson would actually give him an elf girl as a gift.
n
n
nHe wanted to refuse, but the soul from Earth made him subconsciously reject this behavior of treating people as goods.
n
n
nBut when he thought about how he happened to have a maid by his side.
n
n
nLittle Martin was too stupid. At most, he could only be used to run errands.
n
n
nSo, he accepted it.
n
n
nJoelson walked to the prison carriage and opened the iron cage.
n
n
nThe elven girl’s face showed fear, and she shrank to the corner in panic.
n
n
n“Come here.”
n
n
nJoelson extended a hand to her and looked at her calmly and gently.
n
n
nThe Elven girl’s eyes flashed with hesitation.
n
n
nThis human…
n
n
nDidn’t seem evil. There was a special aura about him that made her feel inexplicably at ease.
n
n
nThe Elven girl finally held onto Joelson’s hand.
n
n
nJoelson pulled her out of the prisoner carriage.
n
n
n“So beautiful.”
n
n
nMartin, who was at the side, was already stunned. He stared at the elven girl with infatuated eyes.
n
n
nJoelson snorted, and Martin quickly ran away.
n
n
n“Young Master’s woman, you can’t look at her! You Can’t look at her!”
n
n
nThe elf girl and Joelson held hands, feeling nervous and uneasy.
n
n
nShe was like a frightened kitten, feeling like she was going to run away at any moment.
n
n
nJoelson took her to the carriage, took out some dry food, and handed it to her.
n
n
n“Let’s eat something first.”
n
n
nThe elf girl was obviously famished. She grabbed the wheat cake and began to eat it.
n
n
nPerhaps because the wheat cake was too dry, and she ate it too quickly, she choked in no time.
n
n
n“Cough cough…”
n
n
nThe elf girl coughed violently.
n
n
n“Don’t rush, eat slowly, drink some water…”
n
n
nJoelson smiled and handed her a cup of water.
n
