The Bizarre Wizarding World-Chapter 710 - 437 Night Patrol_3

Jennifer looked at him, her tense face relaxing slightly as a smile unconsciously broke through.

It was just a pity that Colin’s figure completely blocked her from view, so the people below the platform missed out on the beautiful moment of the Queen.

"Happy Birthday, Jennifer."

Colin picked up a triangular crown set with yellow gemstones from the tray held by a servant next to him and smiled as he placed it on Jennifer’s head.

This last part of the ceremony was added by the Roon Family to emphasize that the ruling status of the Roon Royal Family had been granted by the Lord of Tilamei.

But Colin knew that the Roon Family probably added this crown ceremony again to give him peace of mind, underscoring that he was the true King of Tilamei.

"Thank you," Jennifer said softly, her cheeks blushing slightly as she adjusted the crown.

At noon.

In the largest banquet hall of the Palace, envoys and nobles from six nations gathered.

Colin had intended to leave, considering the real birthday gathering for Jennifer wasn’t until the next day.

But the envoys from the six nations requested an audience with him through Jennifer.

Colin met with them in a side hall next to the banquet hall.

"Is there something you need to see me for?" he asked indifferently, as Jennifer, dressed in her finest, stood by his side.

"Great Lord of Tilamei, respected Queen of Roon," said the middle-aged envoy, who appeared to be the spokesperson, taking a step forward and speaking with reverence:

"We requested an audience to report some issues with the grain trade."

"Due to the pollution of the farmland in previous years, most of the grain merchants stationed here have left. We thought they would naturally return once the farmlands recovered, but so far, we have heard no news..."

Grain merchants... Colin nodded slightly and calmly responded, "I understand. If there are any more such matters in the future, inform Queen Jennifer."

The envoys from the six nations no longer lingered and respectfully took their leave.

Colin sat back in his armchair and massaged his forehead, not particularly concerned about the grain merchants mentioned by the envoys.

In the entire region of Neustadt, there was no second Tilamei Plain.

However, grain merchants, as long as there was grain, could be found everywhere. They were not a big problem at all.

Standing up, Colin prepared to leave and turned to Jennifer,

"I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now."

"Mhm," Jennifer nodded and hesitated as she watched Colin’s hurried figure before adding, fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

"Colin, if you’re busy tomorrow, you don’t have to come to my birthday party. After all, you’ve already been here today."

Colin paused slightly and turned to smile,

"I will have half a day... unless something unexpected happens."

Jennifer’s face lit up with a smile. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say more but ultimately just nodded and said,

"Thank you, Colin!"

...

That night.

South of Intuo City.

A high wind blew under the pitch-black sky as old Jimmy carried an oil lamp, leading the new recruits on patrol over the farmlands.

The autumn planting had just ended, and they couldn’t afford any slip-ups.

"Heh—" Rotte, who was on his first night patrol, couldn’t help but yawn.

"Tired?" old Jimmy asked with a chuckle, his eyes cautiously scanning their surroundings.

"A bit."

"Once we’re back at the patrol point, we’ll brew some hot tea to stay alert. The night is still long."

"Mhm," Rotte nodded, unable to suppress another yawn.

However, his peripheral vision caught something that instantly dispelled all traces of sleepiness, and he quickly cried out,

"Captain Jimmy, there’s something!"

"Whoosh!"

Yet old Jimmy reacted faster than he did, immediately setting off Communication Fireworks and swiftly pulling him back by the shoulder as he confronted the pitch-black monster, shouting,

"Cave Monster, retreat! Wait for Wizard support!"
