I chatted with Teclis for a few words. The Supreme Mage never talked much, and Ryan didn't have much to chat with him. He could only say a few words casually.
The cabin of the high elves' ocean-going giant ship is not a crowded place filled with people in a human sailboat at all, but a gorgeous palace. With the blessing of magic, the actual area of the palace is much larger than the actual size of the cabin.
At least when Ryan returned to his residence, he walked for several minutes to get there.
The interior of the lower deck includes a colorful fountain, a library stacked with a large number of high elf books, a storage room and even a music auditorium. The high elves never gave up their civilization and pride even during battles and voyages. Ryan walked on the sturdy lower deck.
On the deck, most of the high elves passing by behaved elegantly and calmly. They had neither contempt nor respect for this kind of human being. They regarded him more as an ordinary crew member.
Ryan only brought a few people with him on this trip, including Gloria witch Veronica and sorceress Theresa, and of course his wife Sulia and Sulia's maid Sylvia. The female knight was in charge
Several servants to serve.
Tigris set aside three rooms for them to live in, no doubt a room for Mr. and Mrs. Lane, a room for Teresa and Veronica, and a room for Sylvia and several servants.
Opening the door to the room, two women, Sulia and Veronica, were sitting on a small table in the room, making scented tea, tasting elf pastries, and chatting about something. There was something on the table in front of Veronica.
He holds a high elf magic book, and the power of the wind of light is rotating in the magic book.
"We will probably sail on the sea for about two weeks, arrive at Marienburg, and then pass through the Reik River to Brunswick." Sulia, who was wearing a corduroy and white fox fur coat, was holding a tea cup, and the fragrance of scented tea filled the room.
, the female knight wore a pair of over-the-knee high-heeled boots and flesh-colored
After wearing thick pantyhose and spending two weeks with Ryan in the Fairy Tower in the Lake, Sulia's delicate and beautiful face has faded away from youthfulness and gradually become mature and beautiful, exuding her own fragrance: "Don't worry,
Veronica, what if you... Ryan, are you back?"
"Sulia, Veronica, what are you talking about?" Ryan pulled up a chair and sat down. Although the cabin of the high-precision giant ship is very large, and the size of hundreds of crew members also determines that the cabin rooms are practical,
The room of about twenty square meters is only big enough for a bed, a table, and a few cabinets: "Where is Teresa?"
"Teresa is still in the library... I just borrowed a book to read slowly at night." Veronica said with a tease on her sweet face: "Why, my great knight, you like it
See the three of us sitting together?"
The Witch of Gloria is wearing a retro tan mink velvet windbreaker today, her slender legs wrapped in black stockings are folded up, and her petite and cute silk feet are covered with a pair of black high heels. Unlike Sulia, the Witch of Gloria is not very afraid of the cold.
, so she maintains this look throughout the year.
"That's not true." Ryan shook his head: "Being able to accept the teachings of Lord Tigris is a rare opportunity for you, so you must seize it."
Teclis agreed to teach the two witches magic because of Ryan's shameless request. In fact, after two months of teaching, both Teresa and Veronica's magic abilities have improved by leaps and bounds. Teclis's magic level is too high.
, his teaching method of answering every question has benefited Theresa and Veronica a lot.
"Veronica and Miss Theresa are both working hard. I see that they spend most of their time in the library every day, reading books. If they have any questions, they go to the deck to ask Lord Tigris for advice." Su
With a smile on her face, Leah praised her. Veronica obviously felt the pressure and kept talking about it.
When Ryan saw this, he felt a little funny and a little sad. Veronica had always been a thorny Witch of Gloria in the past, but she faced Sulia, the duke's legitimate daughter and "masses".
, Veronica still has to be careful to show respect. This is determined by her status as a wizard. The status of spellcasters in the old world is so strange. On the one hand, humans rely on their abilities to fight against enemies, but on the other hand, because of the greater
Vulnerable to Chaos corruption and secretly wary of them or even openly hostile to them.
Veronica cannot overturn the entire system of order. She has to stay with Ryan this way. From one perspective, even a witch from the Holy Land like Margarita is a lover to the savior Ludwig.
Both witches are satisfied with becoming Lane's female courtiers, and there is no humiliation in them. Becoming Lane's female courtiers means that they are protected and publicly recognized by society. This is very important to spellcasters, otherwise the Empire Royal
This is why the position of chief wizard is so highly regarded by spellcasters.
Spellcasters are really eager to be recognized by society. Unfortunately, there are only a very small number of spellcasters who can be recognized by the general public, because spellcasters can easily be corrupted and become followers of Chaos.
"I'm going to the empire this time in an informal capacity, so you don't have to worry about those official invitations." Ryan said softly: "Just enjoy this journey. This is what I want to tell you.
of."
"To put it bluntly, you just need to say that this trip is a continuation of your honeymoon with Mrs. Sulia. Why are you pretending to be so high-sounding~" Veronica complained mercilessly: "I understand that you consider my feelings.
, but this is not necessary, we are all adults."
"It's okay if you understand it that way." Ryan smiled bitterly upon hearing this.
"If you need it, Miss Veronica, I can lend you Ryan for a while." Sulia also looked at the Gloria Witch with a teacup in her hands, making Veronica's face turn red.
Witch of Gloria did not refuse, she whispered softly: "Occasionally, it depends on the situation."
The evening tea party went on for a while, and Teresa came. The sorceress wearing a black turtleneck trench coat, black straight trousers, and brown high-heeled boots had a strong look. The sorceress opened the door and came in. First she called out respectfully.
Sulia called her madam, and then sat down to drink tea together: "The library is closed, I have to wait until tomorrow."
"Well, we should abide by other people's rules when we are on the high elf's ship." Ryan held up his chin and said arrogantly: "When we get to Brunswick, we can buy whatever we want, and I will pay for it."
The members of Lane's wedding received a total of 80,000 gold crowns, of which the Grand Duke Schulz of Marienburg alone received 50,000 gold crowns. Lane was now rich, and he was already in the forest and
A huge livestock farm has been built in the open space between the towns, and there are also plans to upgrade the stables and knight training grounds to further expand the town.
The population is enough. It is time to continue to develop his territory. Development is the last word.
After the tea party, Veronica and Theresa left together. The two witches took an early rest and meditated. They would enter the library again the next morning to study magic.
Now, both Teresa and Veronica have a faint tendency to be pulled away by Ryan, and the arrival of Tigris has given them a chance to catch up, so during this time, all their energy is focused on asking Tigris.
Reese is studying.
There were only two people left in the room, Ryan and Sulia. Ryan picked up the female knight with an ambiguous smile and laid them down on the bed in the corner of the room. The divinely chosen champion of the Fairy of the Lake moved his hands up and down his wife's body, carrying her with her.
She asked with some reproach: "Lidya Su~ Why do you smile so strangely? It doesn't even look like you anymore."
"Ryan, your two female courtiers are both strong people." The female knight shook her head: "...In other words, Miss Theresa is just that. You and Miss Veronica have been together for so many years, why didn't you
Where is a child?"
After hearing this, Ryan shrugged and whispered in his wife's ear: "This is a restriction of my bloodline. In order to prevent my bloodline from being contaminated by chaos, Veronica cannot get pregnant until the spirit pattern engraving is fully mature.
, Veronica and I spend less time together and more time apart, and the spiritual patterns on her body are not fully mature yet."
"Then... how do you become mature?" The female knight blushed. The noble daughter of the duke took the initiative to ask this question, which made her extremely shy. She immediately remembered what happened during her honeymoon in the tower, which was a bit embarrassing.
Understood: "Ryan, the lady has repeatedly asked us to have a child as soon as possible, and you need an heir."
"Heir? Haha~" Ryan secretly laughed in his heart. He kissed Sulia's sweet lips and said, "It's getting late. My wife, if she wants a child, I can't do it alone."
"Ryan...together..."
...the sea breeze blows...
Sailing on the sea is actually a very boring thing. After a short period of novelty, Ryan and his party found that they were out of place on the ship. Due to the language barrier and lifestyle differences, coupled with the high elves' always arrogant and indifferent attitude with their nostrils turned upward, they found that they were out of place on the ship.
The servants brought by Sulia were all unhappy, so they simply locked themselves in their rooms and reduced their travels.
Teresa and Veronica focused entirely on learning magic, while Ryan and Sulia continued their honeymoon life of singing and dancing every night, and they were fine.
After a week's sailing, Le Angoulan arrived.
On the cold wind-swept sea, huge waves beat against the side of the ship. Sulia was wearing a windbreaker and boots, holding Ryan's arm, standing together on the deck, looking at the Le-Angoulant Castle in the distance.
Le-Angoulan Castle is one of the greatest wonders built in the old world. This castle is a witness to the glory of the elven empire. It was also the first trading port opened by the high elves in the old world. It was later destroyed due to the retreat of the high elves.
Abandoned, after the Bretons crossed the Gray Mountains, a tribe of horsemen discovered this abandoned huge castle and immediately decided to make their home here.
The most spectacular thing about the castle is the giant lighthouse that is more than 95 meters high. It is said that it can illuminate the entire sea area within 20 kilometers. The castle wall is so smooth that it looks like a giant marble sculpture. The wall extends from the lighthouse to the land. This is the road.
A magnificent city wall wide enough for ten soldiers to walk abreast.
"It's so beautiful. This was the symbol of the Elf Empire back then." Sulia took Ryan's arm, looked at the lighthouse in the distance, and pointed at Le Angoulan Castle: "This is not the first time I have seen this castle.
But I’m shocked every time.”
"Because this is the place where the high elves finally retreated from the old world." Teclis came up from behind. The high wizard, the Supreme Mage, looked at the lighthouse of Le Angoulan in the distance and sighed softly: "The final battle of the Longbeard.
The First World War also took place here. The Phoenix King Caledor II was killed in this battle and was shattered by Gotrek, the then High King of the Dwarves.
Xing was beheaded, and the dragon tamer family was extinct in this battle. The inheritance of the dragon taming method has since been discontinued. The Phoenix King's crown, which was blessed by the elves and gods with divine power, was seized by the dwarves and is still in the collection room of the Eternal Peak.
Let the collective strength of the elven gods be damaged... Since that incident, the elven gods have strictly prohibited the newly created Phoenix King's crown from leaving Ulthuan."
The high elves were once the masters of the world. At that time, the elven empire ruled all the people. Except for the dwarves and the Slann, all races lay at their feet. The fleets departing from Ulthuan spanned the continents, and astronomical amounts of wealth flowed in every year.
Ulthuan.
Now all that is left of the past glory is the castle of Le-Angoulan, which is occupied by humans, and the giant lighthouse above it, which seems to be a fragment of the past glory for the elves to recall and lament.
"I'm sorry." Ryan didn't know what to say after hearing this story, so he chose a moderate answer.
"There is nothing to regret. Caledor II brought it upon himself!" Teclis snorted disdainfully and shook his head: "What is really regrettable is that the dragon tamer family has lost its heirs."
