Chapter 39: Chapter 35: Lets Go To Glazba.
After handing over the custody of all prisoners, including Sirius, who made quite a number of the Aqua Deer Squad responsible for taking them to the capital,
The others rejoiced at being part of an important mission, as it gave them a chance for promotion.
With that, everyone left towards the capital on their flying brooms.
They needed to report in the capital because this mission was given to their squads directly by the Wizard King.
Usually, missions were accepted by the captains who took them from the reception desk in the Wizard King's palace directly, or 20 missions would be sent to their headquarters in a weekly quota.
The number of missions would increase according to the rate of missions completed and their evaluation.
Three weeks passed...
After completing the task of capturing Sirius and his men in the forest near Hage village,
Ben did not receive any other important or big missions.
So, he used this time to practice and increase his physical strength, even though he already had an enhanced physique.
This time, he chose to practice magic to try to create spells in the respective elemental affinity he possessed.
He succeeded in creating and registering some spells, even though they were weaker than the power he used in his alien form.
Ben believed he needed more arsenals when he was in his human form.
He would often do missions with Mary and Annie, who would stick with him in his training to get stronger.
After completing the training and exhausting most of his mana, he returned to his room to take a rest.
Phew...
"Now I can rest for the day. Let's take a short nap."
Ben's eyelids slowly started to shutter and slowly closed while looking at the ceiling.
Knock... knock...
"Ben, are you there?"
While he was just about to fall asleep, a knock came from the door, accompanied by a female voice calling him.
"____"
Knock... knock...
"Ben? Are you in there?"
Seeing no response from the other end, the voice continued to call him, waking him from his sleep.
"Damn! Mary, what's the matter? I just got comfortable in my bed, and here you are knocking."
Seeing Mary still knocking on the door, Ben reluctantly got up from the bed and went to open it.
Yawn~
"What happened, Mary?"
Ben questioned Mary while looking at her with sleepy eyes.
"Ben, Anny took on an escort mission of a noble to a music festival on Glazba. Are you interested?"
Seeing Ben finally open the door, Mary explained with great enthusiasm and a wide smile on her face.
"____"
this was not the first time these two asked him to come with them to perform the task.
he even did some tasks with them.
"Glazba? What is it?"
Mary who was usually a little shy when he was around looked very happy and enthusiastic when mentioning it ben asked with a confused gaze.
"____"
'wait don't tell me? you...'
When Ben looked at her confusedly Mary's eyes widened in sudden realization.
"Ben don't tell me you don't know about Glazba?"
Sigh...
"I can't believe you don't know about it."
Seeing Ben nodding his head, Mary could only sigh.
"Ben, Glazba is the city of music, the place where every musician dreams of."
Mary started to explain to Ben about Glazba with starry eyes.
"City of music. Huh~"
Looking at Mary's enthusiasm, Ben shook his head and thought about it for a second.
"Come on, Ben. Come with us... it will be a little good change... we can enjoy the music festival in 3 days that will be held very grandly every 5 years where most of the musicians around the Clover Kingdom come to participate..."
When Ben remained silent while in deep thought about whether to go or not to participate in this mission.
Mary hurriedly started to speak without taking a breath, in a hurry to convince him to come with them.
"Let's take a little break from training and enjoy some time sightseeing."
Sigh...
"Okay, Mary. I will come with you guys. After listening to you, I am curious about it."
Mary was interrupted by Ben, and he stated he would come with them to Glazba.
"Okay then, get ready in an hour. We will leave the base to perform the mission."
After succeeding in convincing Ben to come with them, Mary didn't waste any time and left, leaving behind the time when they would depart.
Sigh...
Chirp... chirp...
Nero, who was sitting on the nest present on the desk beside the bed, giving him a lazy look, chirped in.
"Well, Nero, it seems like my rest time is over. I need to freshen up. How about you? Are you interested in joining? It seems like a fun place while Mary was mentioning it."
Looking at the cute bird looking at him without blinking with its lazy eyes, Ben asked it while taking his towel to bathe.
While Nero hopped on his head, he left the room.
After one and a half hours...
Sigh...
"Mary, did you inform him about the timing?"
While tapping her foot on the ground, Anny asked Mary with an annoyed tone.
"I did, Anny. He will arrive soon."
Looking at Anny, who was losing patience, Mary tried to calm her down.
Sigh...
"It's already half an hour late."
Anny started to complain while moving back and forth in annoyance.
"Hi Anny, you look great today. Then shall we go?"
While Mary was about to try to calm Anny down again, she was interrupted by Ben, who casually walked towards them with a candy similar to a lollipop in his mouth.
"What took you so long?"
Seeing finally Ben showed up with a luxurious walk, he snapped at him.
"Ohh~ calm down, Anny. I just wanted to fill my stomach before we left for the mission. Sorry about that."
Ben lifted his hand in surrender and calmed Anny, scratching his back head with an awkward smile.
Twinkle~
And tried to charm her with a twinkle in his eye.
Puff...
"Let's go, guys. It's already late."
Seeing Cold Anny on one side scolding and Ben on the other side trying to calm her anger down, Mary let out a little laugh.
After traveling on the flying broom, they arrived near the mansion of the noble who put the mission for them.
"Stop! State your identity and what is your purpose."
When they approached the entrance to the big mansion, they were stopped by the guard present near the big metal gate.
"We are magic knights from the Blue Rose. Can't you see our robe? We came due to the mission to escort Miss Valentine to Glazba."
Anny, who was in the front, introduced their identities to the guard.
After hearing this, the guard lets Ben and others enter the mansion.
Whistle...
"It seems already they have enough guards here. Why do they want us for?"
Seeing that security was tight in the mansion, Ben let out a whistle and whispered in Mary's ears.
"Miss Valentine is a popular singer. Last time she missed the championship at a close call."
Mary whispered back to Ben while looking around.
"A singer? Huh~ Then why does she need this much protection?"
Looking at the guards at every nook and corner throughout the way, which made Ben was surprised, and looked at the grim expression on the faces of everyone present, including the maids and the guards on their way.
