Novel Bin Chapter 47 Who She Had Chosen
The two girls began trying to cast a healing spell while Vance held out his hand toward the ground and tried to remember the magic circle for a basic earth wall spell. The reason he wanted the girls to learn healing was to make it so that the team\'s survivability would be much higher.
He himself wanted to take this time while they were training to learn earth magic. It was a vital skill since there were higher level skills like rock armor and stone skin that came from the earth magic line that he would need for defense later on. These were all essential skills for him. Earth wall was the first of the earth spells, so he wanted to start from there and work his way up since earth wall\'s magic circle is what the other spells were based off of.
He held out his hand, pointing it at the earth in front of him as he closed his eyes and pictured the magic circle in his mind. Each rune began to surface in his mind as it fell into place on the magic circle. He could clearly see the magic circle as he had used it so many times before.
In just a few minutes, Vance opened his eyes, and a magic circle began to form just in front of his open palm and sent out a brownish wave of light toward the ground in front of him. A low rumble was heard as the ground began to rise. But to Vance\'s surprise, this earth wall was much taller than it should be. He stared at it in amazement for a few seconds before realizing that this might be the effect of his title.
"Not bad." Vance smiled as he turned to look at the girls who were still struggling. He could see some progress, though. The magic circle was indeed starting to form, although it would only go so far before the formation would stop. Alice\'s magic circle was a bit more complete than Sally\'s, but he could see that they were definitely getting the hang of it. "Let\'s stop here. You can practice trying to cast it during breaks. Let\'s get going."
Due to their levels being much higher and their practice yesterday, Vance and the girls quickly moved through the forest. When they reached the exit, Vance did not gain a level, but Sally gained two, and Alice did gain four. Making Sally level 15 and Alice level 14.
"Vance, how close to level are you?" Alice asked.
"I am about one thousand experience away. We would have had to stay in the area around the pond for a few extra hours for me to level up. It\'s fine. We will be heading back out after we talk with your father tomorrow. Alice, you need to stay on guard. You are now returning as royalty. So we all need to keep an eye on our surroundings." Vance warned. Since Alice\'s appearance had returned to how it originally was, it would be sure that the prince would hear about it in no time.
Sure enough, inside a small office, sitting at a desk, Edward looked at the man in black clothing in front of him and asked: "Is what you say true? She has returned?"
"Yes, your highness, Princess Alice has returned. She is with her maid and another young man I have never seen before. She was actually hugging that young man\'s arm." The man in black replied.
"Oh? Hugging his arm, huh? Alright, take some gold and pay off some guards to keep track of them. See what inn they are staying at. I am sure we can find a time to take her out and blame it on the maid and the man she is with. We can call it a lovers betrayal." Edward\'s lips curled up. He was one step closer to being able to seize the throne!
At the front gate, players were running in and out. Due to the influx of the other worlders, the guards no longer stopped people from entering and exiting. So Vance and the girls did not need to undergo any checks as they walked into the city. "There are so many of these other worlders…."
"Don\'t worry. They can not do anything in the city. We only need to worry about them outside the city." Vance saw all the newbie players running around, some of which were sitting down asking for money like beggars on the street. He could only find this quite funny. "Let\'s go to the restaurant down the street. We should celebrate our first outing."
The group went to a restaurant called Timeless. It was one of the best restaurants in the capital. When Vance entered, he could feel the people behind him who had been following him this entire time stop not far away. The reason he came to this restaurant was because it had a backdoor that they could leave through to escape their surveillance.
"You noticed them too?" Sally asked. She had long noticed the people following them once they were close to the center of the city.
"Yeah, I am not sure about the number, but I think it is three of them," Vance answered.
"Noticed what?" Alice was confused. She did not notice a thing.
"We have been followed for a while now." Sally replied before saying to Vance: "It\'s four, not three. The fourth is highly skilled. Even I would have issues with this person. But I do not think they were sent by the prince. It feels more like one of the king\'s shadow guards."
"The king\'s?" Vance furrowed his brow. He did not understand why the king would send guards.
"My father is probably keeping an eye on me. I am sure the guard he sent has already seen the others following us as well. If my brother knows I am in the capital, so would my father. This is actually a good chance." Alice grabbed Vancec\'s hand and pulled him back outside the restaurant, and pushed him up against the wall before pushing her lips against his. She was making a public display of affection for her father to see. She wanted him to know that she had chosen Vance.
