Super Dimensional Wizard-Chapter 17 Vichy Harbor

After transferring through several wagons, half a month later, they finally reached Vichy Harbor on the northernmost tip of the Canary Empire.

In fact, it is not easy to go from Old Land to the Big 6 mainland. At the beginning of each year, and only at the beginning of the year, a trade freighter arrives from Big 6 to Vichy Harbor to dock. The ship will leave after staying only two days at Vichy Harbor, so in order to avoid missing it, people arrive at Vichy Harbor before the beginning of the Month of Recovery.

“There are still eight days to go before the Month of Recovery, and the arrival time of the Big 6 trade freighter is not fixed. Eight days is the earliest it will arrive and 38 days will be the latest. So during this period, we stayed in Sea Moon City until we leave.”

After Morrow finished, he took the group to the Reward Guild that was set up in the middle of the city.

The Reward Guild is a functional association shared by all knights who follow the rules of the kingdom. The country decrees the task, and knights can head to the guild to receive the task or hand it in to receive the corresponding reward.

Morrow brought the group over to the Reward Guild, of course, not to take on a task, but to request to use the Reward Guild’s most luxurious guest houses in the whole Sea Moon City. As long as one has the money, they will receive complete service from the Reward Guild, which includes all accommodation facilities from all other hotels in the city. It can be stated that this is a money-oriented guild.

As the elder of the Monne family, Morrow carried a lot of gold coins. He also did not value these mortal currencies, because when he arrived at the Reward Guild, he gave all the coins for the expenses directly to Angel.

“You are free to move around these days, but it is best to stay near the guild so that when the ship comes, you can board with us together, otherwise no one will come looking for you.” After Morrow explained, he went back to his room and began meditating the whole time.

As soon as they heard that they could move freely, Alan and Irene glanced at each other and burst into great exclamation at the same time. The two rowdy children had felt like they were prisoners on the lookout before, they wanted to embrace this air called ‘freedom’ immediately. Alan’s little eyes glowed with excitement, and Irene could not help herself from wanting to jump around, but she paid more attention to her image when Angel was around, who happened to be standing on the other side.

“Brother Pat, let’s go out! I heard that Sea Moon City is the largest trading port in the empire, bringing together each characteristic of the various countries that head to its port; there is a street that I heard about which specializes in selling goods from other countries, and that many people have gone and found treasures there!” Irene said enthusiastically to Angel while grabbing him by the arm and dragging him along.

Angel looked at Irene with a headache. In nearly a month’s journey, everyone has become familiar with one another, and Irene has also become a lot bolder, her initial shyness has disappeared, and aside from refraining from constant skin contact, the rest of the time she spends her time acting cute in front of him.

Up til now, Angel, no matter how silly or cute, he could see what was on Irene’s mind. It was also very unexpected, obviously they only got along for a few days, how can she start to have feelings of love in mind, sure enough, girls feelings are difficult to understand ah.

It was just that he is still young and feels an oppression similar to the Sword of Damocles with this five-year contract, such that he could not take care to think about anything else; therefore, he could only keep his distance from Irene’s pursuits, and only focus on his own responsibilities. This is also a sign of respect for Irene, he is giving her space.

“No, I promised my mentor that I would practice the problems he sent me every day. I’ll head back to my room first. I’ll go out with you next time. Angel gently refused and headed back to his room.

Irene cursed with her mouth about her unhappiness, finally stamping her foot away while following the muddled Alan out from the guild.

When Angel entered the room, he did not immediately take out the training questions assigned by his mentor, but began to observe the room with his spare time.

The room he lived in, on the side had a view of the sea with a very wide terrace, and overlooking from the terrace, one can see the busy scenes of Vichy Harbor at a distance, and the glimmering sea with the waves breaking.

Overlooking Vichy Harbor, the people looked like a mass of ants shuttling through the streets, on the one hand, Angel lamented at the prosperity of Sea Moon City, and on the other hand, there was a reluctance to adapt to the sudden loneliness.

Looking towards the south at the prairie a hundred miles away, Angel seemed to see the mountains from behind the prairie, and a tranquil town hidden in the mountains, that place was where he lived for fourteen years, a place called ‘home’.

“Brother, mentor.” Angel whispered with a touch of deep melancholy.

In a twinkling of an eye, another ten days or so passed.

With the arrival of the Month of Recovery, the temperature began to rise, the important routes for a number of sea trades have begun to thaw, and a large number of ocean-faring ships began to appear in batches at Vichy Harbor. Morrow hired a team of knights at the Reward Guild to watch the sea port daily for trading freighters from the Big 6 mainland. Alan and his sister Irene also went on a crazy shopping spree these days, buying a lot of things they didn’t have any space for, going out early and coming home late every day, they enjoyed their time even in this cold weather.

Angel hasn’t been out of his room these days, he has been tidying up his recent gains at the hotel, especially studying the problems that Jon for him.

These problems require a lot of calculation and combine multiple subjects. If scholars on earth see this, they will marvel at the wide range of topics and difficulty regarding the subjects involved in these problems. Even if each subject does not require careful study, it will be very difficult to make a breakthrough without the deep knowledge on the topic by the problem solver.

Jon being able to give these questions to Angel also shows his confidence and the value he sees in him.

Angel has been attempting to solves all of these problems since he left Pat Manor. Now, more than a month later, he was frustrated that the problems have only been 1/4 completed.

But no matter how frustrated he was, he had to continue on solving these problems. Because these problems are the only connection he has that his mentor had left him. As long as he solves all the questions and gets the final answer, he can know what his mentor left him.

During the second week of the Month of Recovery, there was a rare sunny day in the weather. The heavens seemed to express joy from the deicing seas, and the port became more lively than it had previously been on prior days. Angel had originally thought of staying in his room today, but it wouldn’t hurt to go out for a stroll.

So, after so many days, Angel finally changed into more casual clothes, sorted out his appearance, put on a gentle smile, and stepped out from the room.

The hall of the Reward Guild is still busy, as soon as he steps in there, there was a strong smell of sweat. Most of the knights licked the edge of a blade every day, even if they are female knights, most of the females only take the time to clean their exposed face, as for their smelly body. They don’t care about it much.

Angel subconsciously frowned, but soon remembered that he was no longer in Grud Town, there wasn’t his brother’s shade, he was not even an aristocrat, and can only be counted as a member of an aristocratic family. With this in mind, Angel’s brow spread and became normal again, continuing to wear his gentle and harmless smile towards everyone.

In the small restaurant on the side of the hall, he ordered a glass of Penang Rum and some barbecue. Angel dabbled while tasting the wine, though not as good as the milk in the manor, it did not have a pungent taste from the fermentation.

Angel ate the barbecue slowly, as his ears perked up, listening to the chatter of the adventurers around him.

In a restaurants where dragons and snakes mixed, it was easier to hear some unique gossip. This experience was summed up by Angel while listening to the stories from Jon, these stories talked about swordsmen from certain Earth novels.

He has too little experience outside of home, so he doesn’t know whether many of the lessons learned from the novels are true or not. But this did not prevent him from happily snooping into every adventurer’s conversation, even if many of the adventurers were simply bragging.

“Hey hey, have you heard? Sea Blue, which is at war with the empire, has recently had a major event! A lot of archdukes suddenly and unexpectedly died, very miserable deaths at that, this sent all the guarding knights into a fright and they ran away in panic during the middle of the night.”

“The Order of Light, the first hired knights order of our guild, have not been seen for months. Tell me, could they have executed the tragedy that happened in Sea Blue State?” A table of adventurers next to Angel gossiped about the battle at the front lines thousands of miles away: “Do you remember six months ago, the Lord of the Imperial Palace personally went to the Reward Guild to send out rewards for the assassination of the commander of Sea Blue. I’m guessing there must be a connection between these two events!”

The voices of the adventurers are very loud, some in order to speak their personal achievements, but some also just to be deliberately loud sounding. So that almost everyone in the whole restaurant can heat the man’s voice.

Everyone agrees that one side was the enemy while the other side employed a knights corps from their own guilds. Their bias is undoubtedly one-sided.

In the heat of the discussion over wine, a cold voice cut through like ice: “The Order of Light from the Canary? Ha, your knowledge is too shallow, I’ll tell you, the Sea Blue tragedy is definitely not the work of The Order of Light form Canary, their strength is not so powerful!”

The speaker, wearing a long water-blue robe embroidered with silver lines shows that he is worth a second glance.

“How can you speak know!”

“Who are you? Dare you say this about the Order of Light of Canary, do you know what the consequences are!”

Everyone looked towards the speaker with fierce eyes.

“Huh? It’s you again! Don’t think that if you bring out a certificate from Sea Moon Chamber of Commerce, that you can really run rampant in the Canary Empire! You are from Sea Blue coming to our country to do business without a good tail, do not dare to butt in, it seems that you don’t want to live! You must be a big reckless man, hard of hearing!”

The merchant of Sea Blue glanced at the man, and more than a dozen armed knights immediately surrounded to protect him.

A rough man is naturally no match for a dozen armed knights, but this is the territory of the Canary Empire. As soon as these knights see the present situation, they immediately stood next to the rough man. Even if the rough man is foolhardy, he is also a man of the Canary Empire. It not his place for a Sea Blue to teach!

There were about a dozen strong men in armor on both sides, and the atmosphere in the restaurant seemed to have solidified at that moment.
