Alan looked up in amazement as Iss flew over his head at a rapid pace, turned his horse's head to catch up a few steps, and shouted, "Is...... Is!"

From this distance, Isis should be able to hear his voice...... But the ice dragon didn't hear it, and it didn't stop for a moment and rushed straight to the south.

Alan grabbed the reins in disbelief, fearing that Iss would rush back to the Collins Temple to fight Ed again, when the ice dragon flicked its long tail, leaned slightly, and made a sharp turn in mid-air, passing over his head again and flying north.

But that's not the direction of Kriesburg.

Alan reluctantly and angrily burst out and gave up the call—the guy was clearly not going to listen.

Seeing the figure of the ice dragon disappear into the distance, Alan returned to Krissus with countless questions, according to the original plan.

He had expected someone here to know the reason for the dragon's sudden farewell, but River, who hurried out to greet him, had a look of surprise and confusion on his face.

"What's wrong with the dragon?" and where is it going?

Before Alan could reply, River began to babble again: "Vala is so worried that ...... 'go see what is wrong with that child!' - she ordered me to ...... 'that child'?" 'That kid'? That's a dragon! What is there to worry about a dragon? It can easily destroy half of my castle, can't it protect itself?!"

Eren opened his mouth to refute, but he endured it again. As a father, he quickly understood. It's likely that most of River's irritability and dissatisfaction wasn't because of Is.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for River to calm down. Gave Alan an apologetic smile: "I'm sorry, I don't have a problem with that dragon either......"

Alan shook his head, and the lie naturally blurted out: "It's me who should say 'sorry', I need Is's to do something for me...... He must have forgotten to say goodbye to Mrs. Singer, and I will teach him a good lesson next time. ”

Let it be - there's no need to worry Vala more.

“...... Really, how did you inform it?' asked Rivers, puzzled, "and why did it roar so much before it left?

"A little bit of magic. Alan lied without changing his face. "When that kid transforms, sometimes he can't help but roar...... It's a dragon after all. ”

River's eyes widened with a look of sudden realization.

Alan didn't think he had really fooled River...... But River Singal has always known when to play dumb.

"You...... Did you tell Mrs. Singhal?" he changed the subject. "About Ed ......"

River shook his head in frustration: "I don't know how to speak at all...... Let's wait until she's better. ”

Alan nodded silently.

"If there's anything else you need help with, please don't hesitate. "Ed's friends are my friends, dragons or elves...... Speaking of which. How does this kid make some weird friends...... Yes. No, certainly not to say you'......"

Alan smiled nonchalantly, "Actually, I do have something I would like to ask you for help with - if you can...... Can you lend me your fastest boat?".

A day later, the ship belonging to the elves slowly sailed out of the harbor and headed south. It was followed by the Singer's fastest sailing ship, the Mouthy Jayne.

"It's a natural match with this ship. Tess leaned on the railing, looked at the playful name on the other ship, and grinned.

Norway smiled and shook his head. But I have to admit that I don't know if it's a coincidence or an intentional ...... She's not wrong at all.

The elven ship they were on was called the Silent Voice. It's true that it's unusually quiet and smooth when it's on the water, but for Tess......

"It's so boring. She frowned and complained.

It was indeed a magical ship, fast and steady, able to adjust its own direction, and its sails would raise and fall on its own, with little to no action on the part of the elves.

But in Tess's opinion, a ship that does not have a nimble sailor who climbs up and down like a monkey on a mast and rope is simply not worthy of being called a ship!

She looked enviously at the bustling deck of the Mouthy Jayne, jumping up and waving desperately when Narya appeared.

The brunette girl waved at her and shouted something at the same time.

The two ships were not too far apart, but the wind overwhelmed everything.

"She said, 'Be obedient.'" "Novi conveyed it in a serious way.

Tess snorted angrily, "You threw me off...... I don't have to listen to you again for the rest of my life!"

Novi let out a long sigh, "Say it as if you've heard it before." ”

Tess thought she should keep getting angry - but she couldn't hold back and giggled.

She had sworn that she would hate him...... But alas, as soon as she returned to him and saw him safe and sound, smiling as usual, she contentedly threw all her resentment into another world.

Now, even though the future is uncertain, she doesn't care about it at all. When she saw Fili staggering out of the cabin and throwing up on the railing, she burst out laughing: "He is seasick! The knight of the god of water is seasick! I thought only dwarves were seasick!"

Norway didn't know where to start correcting this, and finally said with a wry smile: "Even if he was seasick, he came with him, just to help us...... So, Tess, at least don't make fun of him like that. ”

Tess's eyes widened innocently: "I'm grateful to him, but it's really ridiculous that the knight of the water god is still seasick, these are two different things entirely!"

Norway looked at her helplessly and shook his head, but his eyes were full of smiles.

Fili Zeri retched, his face turned blue, and his eyes were blankly slumped by the railing, devoid of the grace and majesty of a paladin, though he had none of that.

“...... Isn't there any cure for seasickness?" asked Naria, not without sympathy.

Fili raised a hand and shook it weakly: "I've always wanted to ask my goddess too...... Maybe Ed would like to help me ask?"

He still couldn't quite accept that Ed had become the new Sage - and Naria thought it was more because of Felicity's death. Not how much he was dissatisfied with Ed.

Perhaps, one day, Ed will also become a sage who is revered and loved like Felicity, and there are many loyal knights who willingly follow him...... A kind dragon. A great sage, the story of these two friends has undoubtedly become a legend that has been passed down for thousands of years.

First, though, they have to make peace.

When Alan saw them off, he claimed that he had asked Isi to go to the Valley of Ambizhi to find out some news from the old mage, and when he returned, his anger would probably subside.

"It's inevitable that there will be arguments between friends...... They'll be fine. He said.

Naria didn't have any doubts about that. But Tess and Norway are on the other boat, and Alan is not with her. Is's not there, not even Ed...... She wasn't scared or anything, after all, she still had Akan by her side. There are Fili, Rosa and Cesyana who have also proven themselves to be quite reliable and trustworthy companions......

She just felt a little lonely.

Even if she could easily join the rude but funny sailors and talk and laugh with them. She still felt lonely.

Naria rarely took boats. But not dizzy at all. But almost every night, in the dangling cabin, she struggled to sleep. On the fifth day of the voyage, in her frustration she tried to write the story of a dragon and a saint in the tone of a bard she had heard, only to find that the story was ...... There is no place for her.

It's not entirely without ...... It's just that completely erasing her part won't have any impact on the story.

It's nothing—she reassures herself. A few years ago, her dream was to open a small hotel. Make different snacks and delicious dishes every day to make everyone who comes to taste them a sigh...... A few years later, she didn't want to be a big deal. Even if it's just standing aside and watching the legend come to life, there's nothing wrong with that......

But for some reason, I'm still a little unwilling......

She couldn't sleep anymore.

After tossing for a long time, she desperately got up and stepped onto the deck to breathe.

In the moonlight, the shadow of the "Silent Sound" in front was clearly visible. "Mouthy Jayne" was the fastest in the Singers' fleet, and for five days, it clung to the back of the elven clipper, not a single step behind.

The waves crashed against the side of the ship, the wind whined the white sails, and the light of the stars and the moon flowed on the water, and the cool and beautiful scenery calmed Naria's mood.

When the sleepiness gradually hits, a white light seems to flash in front of him.

Someone on the high mast shouted something.

Naria looked up in surprise, and a muffled thunder exploded in midair. Black clouds surged in from the northwest, obscuring the entire sky almost instantly.

The wind suddenly picked up, and the long and narrow "Mouthy Jayne" began to jolt, and Naria had to hold on to the railing to avoid falling.

"Miss!" yelled at the first mate, who had just run to the deck, impatiently, "You'd better go back to the cabin!"

The sailors began to run around, shouting to lower the sails and fix the ropes...... In the midst of the chaos, Naria heard several people cursing loudly, apparently no one had expected such a sudden change in the weather.

Didn't you say that the old sailor could predict the weather?—Naria thought to herself, puzzled

"What the is going on?!" Fili poked his head out of the cabin and cursed angrily, "Is the god of the storm having trouble with his wife again?!"

Naria turned her head speechlessly—the wife of the god of the storm was Nyo...... Is this man really Neon's knight? Isn't this storm just to punish him for his disrespect?!

She looked worriedly at the elven ship ahead, the undulating boat had lowered its sails and drilled nimbly around in the black waves, looking much more relaxed than Mouthy Jayne.

But in the next moment, she watched as a huge wave suddenly rose like a wall and smashed into the slender and graceful hull of the "Silent Voice".

"Tess!—"

Naria screamed and involuntarily let go of her hand.

Another big wave hit, and "Mouthy Jayne" jerked to the left.
