"Jancy!" the captain shouted to his Brie helmsman, "turn the rudder to ......"

Once again, he couldn't finish his sentence.

The little mage turned his head and rushed back, slamming into him with joy on his face.

"I need to leave......," he said incoherently, "I need to go and see...... I'll be back soon!"

The end of the sentence was still trembling in the air, and his person had disappeared in the blink of an eye. The captain of the ship, who was thrown down, looked dazed, and then the old father began to be angry and worried.

"'Don't use teleportation spells indiscriminately at such times,' didn't he say it himself!" He threw his fist angrily, "What the hell is he crazy about?!"

"Everyone has their own secrets. Gisell coldly threw back what he had just said to him, and paced away with his hands behind his back, "Tell old Joey that he was probably going to Stonebucci." ”

"Do you know anything I don't know?" asked Bertram, raising an eyebrow in confusion, a little sour.

"With your brain, you're about to get marinated, Captain. Gichel sneered without looking back, "Who else could make that little guy so inexplicable?"

Her tone was also a little sour. Bertram finally came to his senses: "Ed Singer?"

He scratched the wooden thorns on the railing, and after a brief hesitation, he made his decision.

"Jancy!" he cried, "turn the rudder south...... Let's go back to Rainbow Bend Island. ”

He hadn't left Terry since he picked them up. But even though they always treated him like a child, the guy was actually quite a powerful mage who always knew what he had to do. He should have given him more trust.

- But I'm still angry!

.

The little mage, who rarely ran away willfully, was extremely accurate, and the mark on his arm was the most reliable traction. When he suddenly appeared in the heavily guarded secret room, he was greeted with a blow in the face without hesitation.

The sharp blade slashed down with the cold wind, and the little mage's subconscious counterattack was smooth and neat, but when he turned his head to see the attacker, he stayed there for a moment, his eyes widened.

"Great ......," he cried out, and immediately covered his mouth, and the spell that had not yet taken shape vanished.

Fili Zeri's sword had come to a halt on his shoulder before Iss could stop him, and it was slightly deflected against his neck.

"Where did you come from?" The paladin tilted his head to look at the little guy who looked stunned, but inexplicably excited, "Is this place so easy to break into?"

He didn't feel nervous at all about these two little things with glowing eyes and freckles, but he still dutifully maintained a vigilant posture.

"The little rat on the Unicorn. Iss stretched out his hand to pull his sword away, frowned, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Ed!" the little mage remembered what he was running for, "you need to pull him back!"

His voice was high and high, piercing into Is's heart like a thorn - the connection between him and Ed had not been severed, he could be sure that he was still alive, and that he and Sacksis had only been away for a short time in terms of time in this world...... But the time between different worlds is not equal.

His face immediately darkened, and he grabbed Terry by the collar, almost lifting him up, "What do you know?!"

"Hey, hey!" Now it was the turn of the mature paladin to stop him: "Don't scare the kids...... How do you know Ed is in danger?"

His tone was much softer, but his narrowed eyes made Terry instinctively shrink his neck—scrutinizing eyes that were more frightening than Is's rage.

“...... He's going to wake up a world that's dead, isn't he?" he whispered. Since he ran over regardless of it, some insistence seemed unnecessary: "That's hard...... He's really going to be in danger...... He'll fall into the gap in time and space......"

Then, for a long time, alone, adrift in endless time and space. Until he became the same wanderer himself, Terry didn't really understand how lonely it was. Because Ed never mentions it...... He would only describe to them how magnificent and magical the world he had walked through.

The sudden rush of memories made him go into a trance. His voice grew lower, and Fili's eyebrows grew higher and higher.

"I thought few people knew about this?" he said, looking at Is.

"He's from another time. Isis threw him the simplest explanation, still staring at the little mage: "So, in your time...... He's dead?"

The little mage was stunned for a moment, and instantly became angry, and kicked him in the leg: "You're just dead!"

Fili couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the daring little guy, but Iss had already thrown away the little rat that was dancing at the dragon, walked into the circle in a few steps, slashed his palm with his hand, and stopped hesitantly, even lifting Terry aside when he rushed over to do it himself.

"Who are you?" he asked bluntly. His golden eyes were so bright that Terry didn't dare to struggle anymore, and turned his head and whispered, "It's ...... Important people. ”

Filly's eyebrows are raised higher. This seemingly innocent little guy barely spoke - he didn't say anything they didn't know yet.

Iss didn't care about that.

"In your opinion, is he such a useless fellow?" he grimaced, "since he is not dead, he will always come out on his own." ”

Terry glared at him angrily, "You've always been like this!

Then he was silent again.

He lost his cool. He no longer knows what he can say and what he can't say...... But Ed wouldn't like it when he accuses his friend like that.

Isis threw him to Fili and ignored him, still standing in the circle, unconsciously rubbing the wound in his palm. They agreed that he would have to wait for news from Ed, or realize that his life was in danger before he could do anything, but there were many kinds of "dangers......

For a few moments there was silence in the chamber, until Terry began to sniffle quietly, causing Philip to laugh and cry.

"How old are you?" he asked.

"Seventeen. "The little mage is still quite well-behaved towards him.

"You know me?"

“......”

"Ed is your father?"

The little mage looked up sharply, his face contorted with shock.

Fili laughed, raised his hand and pressed his head and rubbed it a few times.

"You ...... Some places are quite similar. He said, "Don't worry. ”

It was an extremely common comfort, but Terry found that he didn't want to cry anymore, whether the sudden, uncontrollable emotion was due to anxiety, helplessness, or something else.

Then he realized what stupid things he had done on impulse. Shame made him hang his head in pride and shrink himself silently, but when the light rose from the circle, he rushed over it eagerly like a puppy flicking its tail.
