Chapter 1191 Changing Destiny

"What does it say?" The guard asked Marcus. He was worried that the document was picked up by the imperials and they wanted to use Judith's reputation to cheat.

"I can't read... but it seems that the Ambassador of Caledor asked me to see him."

"Are you Marcus Kruber?"

Marcus nodded and took out the dog tag of the imperial provincial soldiers from his pocket.

The mottled iron plate clearly read - Marcus Kruber, the captain of the swordsman of the third corps of the border of Ostermark.

After checking the dog tag, the guard thought there was no problem. Unless this guy killed Marcus halfway, it would be impossible for two certificates to appear at the same time.

The guard waved behind him and said loudly:

"Vlamir, take this southern brother to the embassy."

After successfully entering the door, Marcus was soon surprised by the prosperous scene.

It is not easy to build a city in the ice and snow. As the economic center of Kislev, Erengrad is a huge building built with all the national strength.

After the Great Holy War and the Vampire War, large areas of the city have become ruins. The legendary general of the Patriotic Army, after careful consideration, began to plan the reconstruction project in an orderly manner.

Entering the city gate, you can see neatly arranged towers and bunkers. Soldiers holding muskets watch everyone entering the city meticulously.

The sculpture of the giant bear Ersun, which symbolizes Kislev, is placed in the center of the tower. Under the protection of the gods, they can become stronger. Daz's brazier is still burning during the day. The flames of faith can dispel all evil things.

The area near the central square is the residential and office area. The towering onion dome of the city hall announces to everyone that as long as this building does not collapse, Erlengrad will exist forever.

The commercial district, which is the lifeblood of Kislev, is close to the port, but the Caledo Embassy is not at the port, but in a remote corner of the city.

With the embassy as the center, radiating to the surrounding area is a circle of elf buildings.

Scholars, merchants, artists, adventurers... the elves from Ulthuan began to get used to the life in the northern wasteland, and built a unique elf street with the embassy as the center.

Walking in the elf street for the first time, Marcus was a little dazed.

It was too fancy... the white paint on the wall surface and the colorful tiles that looked valuable, which could probably be equivalent to his annual salary.

When he walked to the door of the embassy, ​​the guard was still the first to ask: "What's the matter?"

"This is... your ambassador wants to see me."

The guard took the document and checked it carefully. He did not ask Marcus to take out the dog tag, but raised his hand to invite the imperial man in.

The people in the office were very efficient. In just five minutes, they arranged the itinerary for Marcus.

Take a carriage to Judith's mansion, but it's better to change clothes.

Marcus glanced at the flea-flecked clothes and thought that the elves' cleanliness was really serious. If I changed my clothes, how could I prove that I was Marcus.

The office had no choice but to refuse to change clothes. This was Judith's guest, and it might involve some important matters. They had no right to force him to follow etiquette.

When he actually met Judith, it had been a month since Marcus left the barracks.

But the way they met made Marcus feel a little special.

A Sun Dragon was staring at the visitor with curiosity, while Judith was carefully using a newly developed water gun to wash the dirt between the dragon's scales.

"So, you are Marcus Kruber."

The ambassador's voice was sonorous and powerful, like a sword piercing Marcus's brain, and he felt his temples buzzing.

The swordsman shook his head and barely drove away the strange echo: "I am Marcus, and you are Judith, the ambassador of Caledor?"

"Few humans would talk to me like this... but it doesn't matter."

After turning around, Marcus saw Judith's face.

By human standards, Judith looked very... serious. His tightly pursed lips showed that he was not a person who liked to joke. His high palate and eyebrows made the elf look very cold.

"Marcus Kruber, do you know why I want to see you?"

"If I knew, I wouldn't have come."

The elf smiled and thought that this human was indeed interesting.

"Okay, okay... I don't know why I asked you to come...

But the order from Ulthuan made it impossible for me to refuse."

"Now, you will temporarily stop from the provincial regiment in Ostermark and stay in Kislev as my guard for a while."

"Yes."

The answer without questioning made Judith feel very interesting.

The dragon prince stared at the human, trying to see some strange colors on that face, but Marcus just put his legs together and stood there solemnly.

"Now, your first task." Judith waved to Marcus and handed the water gun to him when the human came over.

"Cleaning the body of my dragon companion."

This matter... Marcus really hadn't done it before. He just answered yes directly, but it was just the nature of a soldier. Since the commander had sold him out, he would listen to the elf for once.

But cleaning the scales... He looked at the hose in his hand that was spraying a fine stream of water, and there was an unknown device, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.

Human? Cleaning the scales of a dragon, and judging from the dragon's eyes, it seemed that he was looking forward to it.

Marcus looked back at Judith and found that the elf was watching with his arms crossed, as if he wanted to see his next move.

"Never mind, old Kruber is not a coward."

Marcus turned the device to the maximum, and a violent stream of water instantly gushed out of the hose. Relying on his strong arms, he held the hose as thick as his thighs, and sprayed it randomly without caring which part of the dragon was dirty.

This rough action caused Marcus to be covered with splashing water stains all over his body, and he became a drowned dog in the mocking eyes of the dragon.

His arm strength is good, but his body coordination needs to be improved...

Judith judged Kruber like this. Not long ago, the royal court suddenly sent a decree, of course, it was written by the Phoenix King himself, requiring him to find a human named Marcus Kruber in Ostermark, which also included various information in detail, including his origin, hobbies, and beliefs.

After finding him, he was not going to let this human do anything, but instead hoped that he would specially train him to at least reach a level of strength that was acceptable to his eyes.

This strange request could only be made by the Phoenix King, otherwise the ambassador would simply ignore it.

Cultivating a human... I haven't done this for many years.

Judith looked at Kruber who was holding the hose to stabilize his body in the roar of the dragon, thinking that this might be an alternative challenge to find some fun in the boring life. (End of this chapter)
