The third day after Greed's fleet arrived at Capone Harbour.
The repair work of the casters on the three steam ships was basically over. This last day was basically to test the normal operation of various parts on the ship and the replenishment of daily necessities before departure.
It is also because of this situation.
The environment on weekdays can be said to be a very good deck, and it also becomes noisy due to the flow of people. Standing here, you can often hear people shouting and communicating work.
However, Ronald didn't mind such disturbance at all.
He moved a lounge chair alone and lay on the deck at the stern of the ship to read the books in his hand. At the same time, he felt the sea breeze blowing beside him, and his life was very comfortable for a while.
Ronald planned to spend this last day of three days in the port.
Even the subsequent voyage is basically maintained in this state.
No other reason—
The process of lying down to read books and absorbing knowledge is really enjoyable.
And I have to mention it - Taylor Vin, the guardian of the underground library, is indeed a good choice for book selection.
The thick stack of books he handed over to Ronald not only contained some precious materials on the study of spells in the Dark Ages, but also considered the next route of the Greed fleet to use some along the coast.
The style log is also included.
For any caster who is ready to voyage, this can be regarded as the best gift in his ideal.
In this way, Ronald was reading the books in his hand alone while enjoying himself.
The magic era mentioned in the book is the dark era in common sense today. The casters at that time were indeed powerful and have made amazing developments in many magic research.
For example, Ronald's book "Observation on the Frontiers of Future Spell Development".
The contents of it already involve the essence of magic, and even continue to the point where information interferes with the real world.
Ronald continued to read carefully and only read the previous chapters, and felt that he had benefited a lot.
It's just a very regrettable.
Just like the great wizard Ormont, who died hundreds of years ago.
The author and his school of thought also come from the disappeared island city [Rachmont], so even if Ronald wants to communicate with his later successors, it may only become a delusion.
Now the only thing Ronald can do.
Only by carefully reading the books in front of you, remembering the knowledge that predecessors have worked hard to study, and passing it on one day in the future.
“…”
"Ah, rest, take a break first."
It's noon.
Ronald breathed a sigh of relief and closed the book, then got up from the recliner.
Standing on the rear deck of the steamship with a satisfying expression, he turned his head to look at Capone beside him.
Costadt and Il accepted their advice and now have their life experiences in the city, both of whom hope to understand and integrate into human society more.
On my own, the three of them have their own practical and effective things to do.
This feeling is really good...
Bang!
Bang bang bang bang!
Just as Ronald stretched his waist and sighed, a loud explosion suddenly broke out in Capone City in the distance.
However, in the face of these sounds, Ronald's expression was calm.
Because it is different from the emergencies he encountered several times before.
The explosion in Capone was not because the city was in crisis, but because the fireworks they used to celebrate were exploding in the air.
At the same time, due to the existence of spells, the fireworks technology in this world is different from the fireworks in Ronald's hometown. They have more colorful colors and more changes, and even if they are released during the day, they can get a good light and shadow effect.
Seeing this on the shore, Ronald couldn't help but applaud:
“It’s really good.”
"But it seems that they are having a meal too..."
Ronald happened to know why Capone lit fireworks at this time.
The reason is simple, Claudia, Greed's first princess, is visiting the city's administrative residence.
Because Gred's fleet will leave Capone tomorrow, the city's officials invited Claudia and others, preparing to have banquets and performances at noon and evening for entertainment and farewell.
At the same time, they show their kindness to Greed.
The fireworks at this time are one of the scheduled stages of the performance.
In fact, according to the original plan, Ronald, the powerful original holder, was also invited by Capone.
It was only Ronald who considered that he promised Taylorvan to stay on the boat to read a book last night, so he ruled out using the excuse of physical discomfort.
After some development, Ronald was able to live a leisurely life of reading books while blowing the sea breeze on the stern deck.
This is actually exactly what Ronald wants.
He was originally a person who didn't like lively. Compared to the tedious social engagements at banquets, he was more suitable for his enjoyment after quiet reading alone.
More than ten minutes passed.
Ronald stood on the deck and watched the entire fireworks show.
It was not until the lively atmosphere fell in the distance that he walked towards the open-air restaurant in front of the deck to prepare for his own lunch.
...
Huhuhu--
There are unexpected situations in the sky, not to mention that this is a port city next to the sea.
Ronald set out from the rear deck, and the front feet were still good. But when he sat down in the restaurant and waited for his lunch, the strong wind blew near the coast.
At the same time, the sky quickly turned dark.
The continuous dark clouds spread from the west toward Capone, and a heavy rain was about to come to this coastal city.
Faced with such a change.
The waiter on the steamship responded very quickly, and someone came to Ronald and asked seriously in a tone:
"Sir, do you need to change to an indoor restaurant for a meal?"
Ronald smiled and waved his hand:
"It's okay, just deliver the meal here."
"I have a spell to shelter from the wind and rain, and such weather will not affect me."
"And the opportunity is rare, I want to try it out, what it feels like to have lunch in a storm."
The waiter also knew that these three steam cruise ships were all powerful figures.
So when Ronald spoke, he no longer dissuaded him, but turned around and returned to the restaurant to continue working.
About five minutes later, a prepared seafood meal was placed in front of Ronald.
Crazy-
Soon, heavy rain poured down from the air, and the sky poured down like a god's anger.
And on the deck.
But Ronald was separated by invisible force in a fairly clean space.
——This is the power of "The Divine Hammer of Rain and Fog".
Although the ability to summon lightning is not available now, it can allow Ronald to sit here peacefully and enjoy his rare rain lunch.
