Chapter 171 Return to Tidal Island

Sanggu collar.

After more than a year of hard work by the people, the two mountains in front and behind are now planted with mulberry trees. Most of the newly planted mulberry trees are over two meters tall, and some are even over three meters tall.

Now is the time when the branches and leaves are lush and green, and it merges with the black fog forest on the left.

The territory's caravans also developed, bringing a steady supply of goods to the territory.

Many people know that this is mainly due to the lord's wife, Lady Jiushiti. The potions she brews are the key to the development of the caravan. Based on this, the people in the territory respect this lord's wife who does not like to show up.

In the Lord's Hall, in the alchemy room on the fourth floor, Jiushi, as a popular lady of the Lord, has been in trouble recently. The cause of the trouble is her father, Baron Gladden.

"How could Dad be so arrogant as to ask me to go back and help the Graydon family make medicine? I've already said it before. I promised Ivan that I would stay in Sanggu and wait for him to come back."

“I still want my mother to go back. When my mother’s face was disfigured, I don’t know who drove my mother to the small building in the first place and corrected that vicious woman. After that woman died, he immediately married another woman.

Now that you have discovered that your mother's appearance has recovered, you are forcing her to go back time and again. You are so shameless."

Thinking of some of her father's actions, Jiushi felt a little indignant. If she hadn't known some magic, she would have been forced to stay in Graden Manor last time.

Because he was afraid of his own identity and the inexplicable death of that vicious woman, my father did not take forceful measures to bring my mother back.

Then she sighed again. After all, he was her father. He had never lacked her in anything in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation. He was even better off than many daughters of nobles.

"Oh! Mom has been acting a little strange lately. I don't see her all the time and I don't know what she's busy with." Thinking of her mother, Lady Selina, Jiushi complained a little but a smile appeared on her face.

She was so happy to see her mother happy and beautiful every day that she didn't have time to complain.

She knew clearly who had brought her current stability, but she didn't know how the person she was thinking about was doing now, and whether he would come back to visit her in the future.

"He will come back, Jiushiti, Jiushiti. You have to have some confidence in yourself. He won't let go of such a beautiful person like you."

All the past events flashed through Jiushiti's mind, from her dislike for him when they first met, to hearing his voice coming from the secret mark when she was in despair, to - as she thought about it, the look in her eyes became dazed.

……

above the ocean.

The Flying Ant shuttled between the sea and the sky and had arrived in the waters near the tidal island.

It is said that one becomes homesick when close to home, so Conley and other apprentices simply walked out of the house and came to the deck in front of the ship, where they could vaguely see the land, but it was still some distance away from the Flying Fish Harbor where the port was located.

"No wonder no wizard is willing to come here. The concentration of energy particles here is only one fifth of that in the academy."

"One fifth is good, and the particle concentration on land should be even sparser."

"Everyone just be happy. If it weren't for Wizard Ivan, we might not be able to come back until we die. And you still complain about it."

When they left Tidal Island, they were ignorant teenagers who had not yet embarked on the path of becoming a wizard. Now, those who were willing to come back to take a look have become third-class apprentices. Looking at their hometown which was getting closer and closer, they felt a little uneasy for a while.

Someone said something foul-mouthed that dampened the mood, and everyone fell silent.

Yes, without becoming an official wizard, it would be extremely difficult to even come back, and you might die on a mission someday.

"Oh, look at my broken mouth, I apologize. In the future, everyone will be able to become a formal wizard like Wizard Ivan." The man reacted and quickly spoke up to make amends.

"It's easy to say, but it's actually not that easy. Everyone of you is Ivan the Wizard."

Everyone present knew that not every third-rate talent could be like Wizard Ivan. If one thinks carefully about the reality around them, they will find that there are far more difficulties than they imagined.

At this time, there were slight footsteps coming from the second floor. Several people turned around and saw that it was Ivan. They quickly bowed and greeted him.

"We are almost there. There are some things I must say in advance. If there are no unexpected events, I will give you five months. I hope to see you on the ship after five months. Please don't let me come and invite you personally."

"I obey your orders."

Hearing this, several people were startled. They knew that this was a warning to them. If anyone dared not to show up, the consequences would be very serious.

The Flying Ant continued to sail in the designated direction and finally arrived at the Flying Fish Port terminal.

Seeing the wizard ship approaching, the captain of the dock guards sent someone to notify the city lord Earl Hobson, and ordered his subordinates to clear the east bank of the dock and wait for the wizard ship to dock.

Upon hearing the news, Earl Hobson rushed over, and with him came many noble officials, including Baron Carl, the city lord's confidant.

"Which wizard is visiting Flying Fish Harbor? I am Colin Hobson, the mayor of this small town. Colin and his subordinates welcome your arrival."

"Earl Hobson, it's us. Wizard Ivan has already left."

Of course, Earl Hobson saw Conley and the others, and also saw the apprentice robes they were wearing, and thought that there was another wizard on the ship, so he had to be polite. Hearing this, he asked in surprise: "Prince Conley, it's been a long time since we last met. What do you mean by saying that the wizard has left?"

"It means exactly what it says. When the ship was still some distance away from Flying Fish Harbor, Wizard Ivan left the ship on a summoned bird. Presumably, that place was closer to his original territory, so he did not come to Flying Fish Harbor," Conley explained.

As they were talking, they jumped off the Flying Ant and arrived at the dock.

"Wizard Ivan is Wizard Ivan Marichatton. You people in Flying Fish Harbor should be very familiar with him." He added without waiting for the Earl to ask.

When they heard him mention this familiar name, many people widened their eyes, especially Baron Carl, who almost bit his tongue.

Baron Carl took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead unconsciously. He felt lucky that he had made amends at the beginning and did not offend the young man, no, the wizard, to death. Otherwise, the Carl family would probably have become a thing of the past.

The Earl is indeed wise!
Hobson's face showed joy. Now the family had made friends with a new official wizard.

It was worth it that he first gave away the territory and then maintained friendly trade with Sanggu Territory.

"My lord, I am Kaludo, the captain of the guard of the Flying Ant. Wizard Ivan asked me to bring you a letter and told me to deliver it to you personally." Kaludo stepped forward and handed over a thick letter.

"Captain Kaludo, thank you very much." Earl Hobson took the letter and took a glance at it, then he realized that it was from his niece Pernie. He immediately realized that the two must have a close relationship. You know, they were not in the same college, so the delivery of this letter was somewhat strange.

"Before Wizard Ivan asks to return, the Flying Ant will stay at anchor for a while. I'm sorry to bother you, Lord Earl, for the next few months."

"Okay, okay, you can stop as long as you want. I'll pass on the instructions and make sure no one disturbs you."

Hobson naturally had no objection to Kaludo's request. He hoped that the wizard ship could stay here for a few years. By then, the harvest would most likely not be gold coins.

Hobson invited all the apprentices to visit the manor so that he could arrange for those who wanted to leave to leave.

After getting on the carriage, he couldn't wait to open his niece's letter and read it line by line.

"Wizard Ivan actually needs the legendary knight-level breathing method. This is a bit difficult. My Hobson family doesn't have it either. I wonder if the grand knight level will do?" Hobson murmured.

Ivan probably didn't expect that he just casually mentioned the main purpose of his return, but Penny solemnly told Earl Hobson and asked him to think of a solution.

On the other side, Sang Gu led.

A watchtower was built on the front ridge to observe the enemy situation. The guard on duty found something approaching quickly. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was a large bird of prey.

"Look, there are ferocious birds approaching the territory."

"Oh no! Ring the alarm bell! Wait! There's someone on the beast - it's the Lord. It turns out the Lord has returned."

Under the gaze of the two territory guards, a blue dove flew past quickly.

If Ivan hadn't deliberately slowed down so that people could see him clearly and avoid causing a commotion, the two of them might not have noticed something flying by.

Following Ivan's instructions, Qingjiu flew straight to the castle and stopped above it.

When he was about to let Qingjiu slowly land, he saw a pretty figure appear in the window on the fourth floor, waving at him eagerly.

"Ivan, my lord, here, I am here, I am here."

Jiushiti had imagined many reunions and various ways of meeting. When she really saw that person, she no longer had any other messy thoughts in her mind. She just wanted to tell the other person where she was as soon as possible so that he could see her as soon as possible.

"Jiusiti, I'm back."

Qingjiu immediately understood and sent Ivan to the window. As soon as he entered the room, a soft body threw itself into his arms.

While the two were being affectionate with each other, someone saw the Baron's figure, someone heard the voice of the lord's wife, and they all understood that the lord who had gone to study far away had returned to Sanggu.

Red and Paul in the village in the valley also knew the news.

"Paul, let's go and meet the Lord."

"it is good."

Faced with his father Reed's urging, Paul looked a little unnatural, but he still responded.

Soon, Ivan met many people in the lord's hall, including his father Red, his brother Paul, his sister Padgy, his brother Sean, and several important leaders of the territory.

Everyone noticed that the lord's aura had become even greater, making it difficult for anyone to look directly at him.

What they don't know is that this is not power, but the result of being at different levels of life. It is an instinctive awe that lower-level creatures have for higher-level creatures, and it is also an instinctive warning.
