Von slowly turned his gaze and scanned the place, it is indeed a wonderful place. The cold breeze that came down from downhill brushes his body and cooled him down.
"Aigo! Does your old world doesn't have this kind of scenery?"
Viola looking at Von and mockingly poke him at his belly.
"I spent my whole week in the library. I thought my lungs were rotting away in the smell of old books. I just missing some fresh air you know"
It was the same for the other Earthlings who enjoying the beautiful scenery. Who would have thought that there's a war happening in this place?
They are currently standing at the entrance of the Alexandria District. The whole place was covered by a huge and thick wall approximately fifty meters in height.
One can't imagine how monsters can breach this kind of wall while embedded by protective magic. Von wants to figure it all because this place would be his new home from now on.
The moment the gates opened, there stood a group of soldiers approaching in their direction.
"I don't know that lady Hestia will personally meet us." Viola slightly lowers her head to show some respect.
A mellifluous long hair; white as snow, delicate eyelashes, and having a perfect posture while wearing elegant silver armor - indeed this beauty is none other than Hestia. The daughter of Duke of Alexandria.
"You brought only dozens of people to help us? "
"It's a misunderstanding my lady. I know you are aware that they are failures but they are here to do some chores and labor, not warriors.
Hestia heart sank. She wanted to ask whether the knight was serious, but she could only hold his mouth agape.
Currently, the Valhalla guild is affiliated in the district and shares the authority and duties to maintain peace in Alexandria. They devoted all of their manpower in defending the wall, thus resulting in the current situation. Both Valhalla and Alexandria suffered several casualties.
Hestia couldn't find the words to speak. Right now, Alexandria is in a bad shape. She knew about the unfortunate of Valhalla during the draft and failed to acquire new talent.
Of course, no one could guarantee how long it would last against the war. So anxiety is always roaming around her. After idling for too long, Hestia started to open her lips.
"It would be great if you could see Father. We also would like you to relay a message to the King."
Viola took a glance at the Earthlings and they expressed their approval and went with the flow.
Eventually, they passed through a crowded town. They could see how busy the place was. People of this town is already started reconstructing their place. At the end of the road, they saw a medium-sized castle that was built into the mountain.
When they arrived at the castle, they were ushered into the guest room straight away. They walked through the corridors and could not help but notice the beauty of the decorations. Compared to the royal palace in the capital, this place is noticeable old yet it was very neat and clean.
They arrived in front of a set of the huge double door two soldiers stood at attention on both sides of the door, without waiting for a reply, they opened the door.
The duchess Lilia greeted them.
"Hello, it was a pleasure meeting the great Viola."
"It was a great pleasure too. I hope lady Lilia and the Duke are doing great."
"Huh? Did the duchess called that violent woman great?" Von furrowed his brows.
Both Royal Knights and Holy Knights hold a great reputation all around the kingdom. They are composed solely of Caidenian people. Yet their growth rate is much slower compared to the Earthlings. The minimum requirement of entering the group was level 3.
Viola is a high-ranking Royal Knight. Despite having such a harsh personality, she is a total beauty, and men were fascinated just by looking at her.
"I am sorry for my sudden invitation. I will get directly to the point. You know the Duke was not feeling well lately. We badly missed his presence especially in the current situation we are put in. For us to take necessary measures, I have an important request to the king."
Duchess looked at the Earthlings while trying to say that they need to talk alone just by her look.
Von and Elly made a mini-tour around the palace and decided to go outside to get some fresh air.
Both of them stood at the top of the hill and turned around to look down at Eastern District. It seems very peaceful, there was no way that they would enjoy this kind of a day every day.
Looking at the distance, he could see a dark forest composed of large trees. It seems it was covered by a dark aura. Von rubbed his eyes and double-checked it. Yes, it is covered by darkness. The trees seemed to have lasted for hundreds of years.
Before they could even enjoy the refreshed feeling, they heard a footstep nearby approaching them. They saw three of their fellow failure Earthlings.
A man with black hair wearing eyeglasses stretched his hand asking for a handshake.
"I am sorry for intervening in your moment. It must be fate, meeting in a place like this. Why don't we introduce ourselves to each other?"
Von gladly shook his hand.
"I'm Von the famous farmer."
"I'm Daniel a woodcrafter"
"How about the women behind you?
"So it's Elsa an Artificer and her sister Toni a mechanic."
"They are blood siblings?"
"Yep."
The two ladies were wearing tight clothes. Elsa has long blonde hair and wearing a pair of eyeglasses. While Toni has bob-cut hair and noticeable has a larger breast.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind, it was Viola.
"Get your ass over here. I'll introduce you to the man who will take care of you."
All of them gathered in the old small church. Inside the church, the floor is rough, hard, and covered with small rocks that prickled their feet. There is a small statue of Luxuria made of stone and crafted delicately.
Quite a few kids are staring blankly at them. This church also turnout be an orphanage.
"Hello my name is Peter and I am the priest of this small church".
The priest wearing a black cloak started his speech.
"Only two in your group are male and the rest are women. From now on, all of you will be helping me with babysitting these kids."
The priest raised his index in the direction of Von and Daniel.
"I heard one of you had a farming class?"
"That's me."
"You will be out there for farming duties as a tenant farmer. Meanwhile, the other gentleman will be sent to aid the construction of wall. From now on, forget that you're earthling.
The priest had expected the Earthlings to have a violent reaction to their new role. But instead, no one felt bad, They are expecting to be in a vanguard after being treated as dispensable. They felt really good for acquiring a safe job while living in a beautiful and refreshing place.
