Chapter Seventy-Six: Acquaintance
Five days after the Sea Tribe attack.
Inside the gorgeous restaurant inside the ship.
After her daily routine of meditation, Freya took a plate full of food and walked to a seat at random and ate carefully.
Because it was at sea, most of the food on the boat was seafood, and although the chef's cooking skills were good, she was also very tired of eating too much, so most of her plate was green vegetables and a few golden grilled fish.
The restaurant is large and luxuriously decorated, but there are only two or three people dining here except for Freya, and they are all far away.
Before she could take a few bites, a figure walked around behind her and placed the plate across from her.
"Freya, I'm also eating alone, don't mind if I sit here?"
It was an ordinary boy about fourteen or fifteen years old in a brown swordsman suit, and his hoarse voice in the voice change period was a little unpleasant, but his attitude was very kind, and there was a taste of sunshine.
Although it was an inquiry, the young man sat down with a smile on his own.
Freya looked at the young man opposite a little speechlessly, and just lightly tapped the plate with a knife to show the other party's unreasonable behavior, but she didn't say anything to drive away.
This ordinary teenager met by accident the day after the Sea Clan attack, while practicing swords in the training room. Buckran.
He boarded the ship at the last Mayan port, and he was an apprentice to a wizarding academy, but his destination was different.
However, although Francis is the same identity as Freya, Francis knows more than she knows more than Freya, who knows nothing.
And most of the deeds about this ship were actually told by him to SΓΉ Freya.
Except for Francis's conversation at the beginning, the two of them just ate the food silently after that, and during the period, the restaurant with few people walked out two more just now.
Now the two of them are the only ones left in the huge dining room.
After a while, after Francis ate a live squid, he finally couldn't help but speak.
"By the way, Freya, I don't know where you've been going for so long."
"I'm going to Al Green Wizarding Academy." Freya said calmly.
In the past few days, she has also learned a little about Francis's familiar character, except for some chatter, in fact, he is also a simple teenager.
"Elgreen?" Francis picked up a bowl of thick soup and blew it slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "I seem to have heard of this organization, it is on the other side of the Dias Mountains, and there are only two medium-sized countries separated from the place where I am going, and it seems to be very close." β
"Oh? Do you know Al Green? Freya raised her head slightly, put down her food, and asked curiously, "Then do you know anything about this organization?" β
"What's this...," Francis smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, I only know the approximate location, the organization between wizards is actually very secretive, and it is difficult to understand if you don't join it, but I can tell you that you will arrive in about ten days, and I will have to be three or four days later than you." β
His answer was also expected.
It's just that Freya frowned slightly: "... It's going to take more than ten days. β
Judging by the speed of the giant ship, the current position is far, far away from the port of the dragon, and if you go back in an ordinary carriage, it is not too much to measure it in years.
"Actually, it's fast." Francis saw Freya's expression and comforted, "You know, some wizard organizations are further away, it is said that some special wizards are still active in the polar regions, as far as I know, there are two people on this ship who are going there, and it will take half a year to arrive." β
"Uh... Half a year..."
Freya was a little speechless, it was hard to imagine that someone would have to stay on this ship for half a year before reaching her destination, but she turned her head to look at Freya Sith suspiciously.
"Then again, why do you know so many things?"
"It's nothing, I'm actually a second son who was sent away because of the family's suffering, and now that the family is up, I have a chance to go back." Francis spread his hands and said bluntly, as if he had nothing to hide about his identity.
"Family? Do you mean the wizarding family? β
"Well, it's just a small family, if you're interested, you can give up that Elgrin Academy and come to my family, and I promise not to treat you badly." Francis's tone seemed casual, but his eyes looked at Freya with an inexplicable sense of anticipation.
In a few days of contact, Tong GuΓ² also learned some information about Freya with subtle temptation, he has the peak strength of knights and also has a third-level wizard qualification, which can be regarded as an elite-level apprentice even in some large wizard organizations, although his personality is too rational, this cannot be said to be an advantage.
If Freya is drawn into the family, it will definitely help the current family, and what he said in his words will not be bad, but it is also true.
Freya looked at Francis's sincere expectant eyes, and knew that what he said was not a joke, but just about the contract between Hegel and her, so she shook her head slightly and smiled.
"Forget it, I also promised to go to Elgreen, so... If I have the chance, I will visit your family. β
"Oh, oh~ that's a pity." Francis showed an exaggerated expression and said, "But, seriously, although I don't know the content of Elgreen's organization, but I do know that on the other side of the Dias Mountains, there are often wizarding wars, if you can't get along there, you can come to my side, I am the second son of Buckrann, and you are always welcome to come." β
"Hehe, it's decided, don't regret it if you really go." Freya was also stunned by Francis's exaggerated expression, and then replied with a smile.
"Of course."
Although the two have only been together for a few days, Freya can also feel Francis's sincerity towards her, and there is no special affection in it, just a simple friendship between friends who meet people who appreciate each other in the vast sea.
"By the way, do you know what kind of power those black-robed people on this ship use? Are they also wizards? Freya suddenly thought of the strange power used by the black-robed man during the Sea Clan's attack, and asked.
"Oh, those, those people are not wizards, they are just dead soldiers cultivated by the Elk family with witchcraft since childhood, and they themselves are between knights and wizards, and their potential has been overdrawn by witchcraft since childhood, and they have obtained strong strength, in fact, they are just a group of warriors with no potential in essence, at most they have reached the level of knighthood, and those of us with infinite potential cannot be compared." Francis replied slowly, only with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
"Oh, somewhere between a wizard and a knight... That's how it was? Freya nodded, somewhat understanding.
