In the afternoon, the crowds poured in like a tide. Businesses and travelers from all over the world rushed here and there as the hawking sounds of rising and falling. The steps and walls in front of the building were all occupied by goods and travelers sitting on the ground.

Today is not only the 80th anniversary of the founding of Didevia, but also the selection day for the Princess Guards, which has attracted all kinds of people, young warriors with great ambitions, experienced mercenaries who have been through the battlefield, bounty hunters and bards, and even civilians who want to try their luck.

The royal members of Didvia will hold a selection after the coming-of-age ceremony, selecting five people with both civil and military character and noble character to form an exclusive guard. Unless the member dies or is dismissed by the royal family, even if the relatives die, they must not leave without a single step. They must be wary of their master's safety anytime and anywhere.

This honor is not only a generous salary, but also a candidate who is selected can be promoted to nobles and glorious ancestors. This is also one of the reasons why people are fighting for the worst.

In this crowded cityscape, a handsome man with intellectual eyes, violet shoulder-length hair, and his appearance is no less than that of a fairy, is barely squeezed out of the dense crowd.

This heroic and sassy man pulled out a wrinkled silk pansy dress, revealing a disgust that was inconsistent with his handsome face.

"Damn it, how many people are there today?? That guy Yak is really enough. He just chose to make me disappear at this time. He has to scold him later."

Because the crowd was too dense and the efficiency of searching directly with the naked eye was not good, he endured his shame and shouted loudly to the sky:

"Yak, Yak Lol! Get out of here when you hear something!"

Even though he didn't shout often, he tried to increase the volume to the maximum, his voice was still drowned by the noise around him.

At this time, wiping the flute not far from the square, the blonde leprechaun with his ears heard the shouting, and walked onto the temporary stage and shouted to the crowd in a high-pitched bel canto:

"Everyone, the next song is about to begin, so please be sure to come and enjoy it."

The crowd was attracted to the center of the square like a magnet, and the noisy voices and hawking sounds were also much less.

The man nodded and thanked the leprechaun, and the other party smiled faintly, and then began to immerse himself in his performance.

As the people on the street disperse, it is naturally not that difficult to find people, but if the person you are looking for will hide in the alley and complain, it will take a lot of time to find them.

As a result, after only two streets, I was lucky enough to find the target - a young black-haired man curled up at the corner of the street and hugged his knees and sighed.

"It comes faster than I imagined, and I really have to thank the street stall merchants who piled up goods all over the alley."

The purple-haired man walked over, took out a piece of parchment from his arms, and pointed it at the young man's face and pressed it on.

"──Wow!?"

The young man who was in the haze had no time to react, so he lay down with the flow.

The face was covered with paper, and the young man kept lying flat, and he answered weakly:

"...what are you doing, Zier."

"I just wanted to ask you what you are doing here? Every time I hide in such a place, the city is crowded again today. Do you know how hard it is to find a fool?"

Zier wrapped his hands in front of his chest and complained impatiently:

"Yak, it's not that I'm talking about you, and I ran away without looking at the results. Although it was not announced immediately, there is no need to hide in the square, right? Well, I should be able to catch up when I go back now."

"What did you catch up with? I failed the written test..."

Yak exhaled and blew the paper away, revealing a prominent claw mark on his right cheek. He sighed and turned around and lay down on his side awkwardly.

Both of them have almost the same physique and length. However, compared with Zier, who looks majestic, Yake's appearance is not outstanding and he is wearing only ordinary linen clothes.

Yake has disordered black hair and his temperament is opposite to the reserved and calm Zier, giving people a sense of irritability

Feelings.

"You didn't look at the results, how did you know that you didn't pass?"

Zi Er sneer, picked up the paper on the ground and cleared his throat, and read out the words written on it.

"The person who passed the written test is as follows, number 546: Zir Torrede─"

"Did you come to show off to me specifically..."

Yak, who suffered another blow, was about to shrink into a ball again.

"I haven't finished speaking yet, number 547: Yak Lor!"

The voice deliberately raised his tone. After saying that, Zier rolled the flyer into a roll and threw it at Yak's head.

The useless man on the ground immediately turned over and sat up as soon as he was hit by a roll of paper. His originally dim and unsightly brown eyes instantly ignited a sharp light.

"Really!? Zier, you didn't lie to me, right?"

Yake quickly got up and leaned over Zier and peeked to confirm whether his name was above him.

"I will fall into the pool with my head in my head. Get up quickly. It stipulates that I must report before sunset, otherwise I will lose my qualifications."

"Why didn't you talk earlier? You have to go there quickly, otherwise it will be too late!"

He quickly tied the sword around his waist and shook the clothes that were rolling on the ground and stained. Yak patted his cheeks and stepped forward with a thrilling chest.

"Yes, yes, I'll ask you not to hide so far next time."

Zier sighed helplessly and followed Ak's footsteps.

Ake, who swept away his worries, had a child-like bright smile, Zier, who breathed a sigh of relief, also showed a relieved smile, and the two ran on the street full of pedestrians.

After passing through waves of people, several carriages busy delivering goods flashed by, we finally arrived at the square in front of the castle in the middle of the royal city before the sky was dyed red by the sunset.

From a distance, you can see exquisite hero stone sculptures standing everywhere and the mighty red lion flags floating in the air. Not to mention the surrounding watchtower, the entire castle is as high as four or five floors, and the castle of the local lord is simply incomparable.

The capital of Didvia, Delake, is now showing us without reservation. Such a spectacular landscape will never be bored no matter how many times you see it. Coupled with the golden brilliance of the setting sun, it further highlights this majestic building that takes into account both art and defense.

"Yak, it's not the time to admire the castle. Although we were not late, there were already many people waiting in line for the second level interview."

After hearing what Zi Er said, I noticed that the crowds in the square in front of the inner city did not come much in the morning. Most of the people gathered here now were participants who passed the first selection.

Most of them are fierce and powerful men, or foreign warriors who are fluent in their own language, or travelers from afar, but not half of ordinary people.

Wow~ That old man's arms were too thick, and the hammer in his hand was exaggerated.

Suddenly I felt that it seemed more difficult than climbing the sky to stand out from this group of people.

It’s not that I don’t have confidence, but that I have never even killed a rabbit until now, let alone attacking monsters, and it’s hard enough to just spend the farmland to support myself.

Although I practice swordsmanship with Zi Er every day, it is not considered practical experience. It seems that each of these people has experienced many battles, and maybe someone has slaughtered the dragon.

"Believe in the effort you have been making. Didn't you come here for this?"

As if I saw through my inner thoughts, Zier's timely words of encouragement swept away the uneasiness in my heart.

That’s right, I have worked hard day and night for many years to work hard for today, so how can I stop here? I have to be more confident in myself!

Zi Er, who was standing beside me, suddenly thought of something and turned his head, and pushed his hair that had slid across his shoulders back and asked:

"By the way, Yak. How did you answer the last question of the written test?"

"The last question?"

I tried to recall the various difficulties I encountered in the exam room in the morning.

To be honest, I almost never write the written test questions. I have never read any "full collection of ancient history books" or "army organization theory" in my life, but I have read the "education wild grass picture book" and "experiences in the East".
