139. A supporting character in the story

Haiyin Silk City slowly became smaller in my eyes, and the airship jumped above the clouds, and Haiyin Silk City completely disappeared from my sight.

Sixteen floating devices emitted violent magical fluctuations, accompanied by a buzzing roar, the magic airship sailed away from the dock of the Seawes Airport and climbed upwards until the airship smoothly entered the high-altitude current, and Captain Ursula shouted from the captain's cabin to the crew on deck, "Raise the sails......"

As the white sails on the five masts were all pulled up by the crew, and even the horn sails on the bow were blown extremely by the strong wind of the air current, the main mast of the five-masted schooner, which was more than eighty meters long, made a 'creaking' sound, and the magic airship continued to increase in speed on the air belt, speeding towards the southwest wind of Haiyin Silk City.

Captain Ursula wore a white shirt and black trousers, a pair of delicate leather boots on his feet, the sleeves of the white shirt were rolled up high, and the golden curls looked very capable on the top of his head.

There are three first-class cabins on this ship, all on the second floor of the building above deck, one of which is Captain Ursula's living room, and the other two first-class cabins are sold to the public, these two first-class cabins have two bedrooms, and there is a very compact living room, one side of the living room has a round glass window through the glass window, through which you can see the scenery outside, and the bedroom side is next to the stairway.

There are also twelve second-class cabins on the first floor of the magic airship building, as for the third-class cabin, the third floor below the deck is the crew's lounge, and the bottom two floors are the cargo holds, this airship sailing to Strange Rock City can accommodate about 300 passengers, if it weren't for the airship waiting for us to board the ship at the airport dock, which was delayed for most of the day, this airship would have set off in the morning.

Our group occupied the best two cabins on board, and through the glass windows we could see the clouds flowing backwards like a river beneath the airship.

Knocking on the door of the cabin next door, Anne opened the door, and when she saw that it was me, she stepped out of the way, I looked inside, and asked with a shy face, "Is it convenient?"

Su was lying in front of the glass window at this time, looking at the scenery outside, and when he heard my voice, he turned his head to me and said, "Jijia, look over there, it turns out that snow geese can fly so high!"

I leaned over to Sue and sat down on the couch, Sue probably rarely traveled, riding in a magic airship was very new to everything, her bright eyes were full of curiosity about all of this, she changed into a corn-colored dress, revealing a piece of ivory smooth calf, now this pair of prosthetic legs from Oriana's magic shop has become an indispensable part of her life, although she can now use enough power to change herself into a better pair, but she still insists on using the pair of prosthetic legs I gave her, looking at the side of her face, the slightly raised corners of her mouth with a kind of surprise about the world。

I followed her example, resting my chin on the back of the sofa and looking out through the small glass window: "If you need anything on the journey, just let me know." ”

Su's eyes were bent into a crescent moon, like a quiet and bright crescent moon swaying with the bright moonlight at night, and said to me happily: "It's already very good here, this is the first time I've taken a magic airship to live in this kind of first-class cabin, it feels like living in a luxurious hotel, it turns out that this is aristocratic life!"

Anne, who was standing behind us, said calmly: "Not all nobles can enjoy such a life......"

β€œ...... Plus, you're going to have to learn to tidy up your belongings, and you're living a pampered life in Campbell's nursing home, and you've almost lost the ability to tidy up your housework!" Anne was like the housekeeping teacher at the academy and began to let Sue try her hand at some daily chores.

As for Sue, she also seemed to enjoy the process, and she didn't feel that it was too hard or boring at all, and kept complaining to Anne that 'this is much easier than doing treatment!'

Erica walked out of her room, and the beakers she used to make potions had turned into tea-making tools, and the air smelled sweet and sour.

I sat on the couch and said to her, "Senior Erica, you don't know how depressed Senior Vernon was when he heard that you had left the Imperial Capital without saying goodbye. ”

She walked out of the pantry with a tray full of teacups, bent down to pour lemon tea into the teacup, her long hair pouring down her back like a waterfall, and Erica had a bitter smile on her face, "Do you want to hear about what happened between us?"

"I'm a little curious, but if it's not convenient to speak, I can skip it. I shrugged my shoulders and said.

Erica sat down across from me and said, " There's nothing bad to say, like many people, Halib and I are classmates at the Royal Academy of Magic, because we have the same interests and hobbies, we both joined the Academy's Potions Society, Halib at that time was different from now, he was full of longing for magical herbology, and his understanding of many herbs was the best among the magical students in the academy, he was very sunny at that time, and he was also very handsome, he liked to help other students, and he was very popular in the academy, and when the old president of the Potions Society graduated, he handed over the position of the president of the Potions Society to him, and the Royal Academy of Magic at that time, the presidents of the major clubs are the most outstanding magic students in the academy. ”

"Usually we talk very well together, and because we are usually very close, we slowly changed from good friends to lovers. At that time, our biggest dream was to open our own potions shop in the imperial capital and sell people our own unique magic potions. Most of the time we will manage the medicine garden in the water system ecological park. ”

"When we were in the third year, Vernon was the freshman of magic, I'm afraid you can't imagine how earthy it was when Helib brought him to the Royal Academy of Magic, Vernon is a water magician, you also know that the water magicians in the Royal Academy of Magic are as rare as dragons, and water magicians often get twice the result with half the effort if they learn Potions, so Helib wants to develop Vernon into a member of the Potions Society, but that guy is very assertive, he actually likes alchemy very much. ”

"At the end of the third year, Vernon couldn't resist Halib's lobbying, and even agreed to join the Potions Society, the two of them are from the same province, Halib usually takes care of Vernon, at that time he was like Halib's little henchman, and gradually there will always be three people on the date between me and Halib, and at that time, we will also go to the magic herbs during the holidays to experience the flourishing face. ”

"Until graduation, Halib and I left the Royal Academy of Magic, we rented a cottage in the imperial capital, opened a small potions shop, in those years the primary magic herbs were rotten street things, the business of the potions store was not too prosperous, the big lords were more willing to cooperate with the potions masters in the Potions Guild, even if the situation was difficult, we slowly survived, and then we bought a shop in the backstreet of the Royal Academy of Magic and opened that potions shop. "Reading Temple

"Actually, it's hard to tell what is right or wrong, in the past few years, Halib has protected me very well, he has always been alone in the wind and rain outside, and I am hiding behind him, refining magic potions in that small potions shop, for that potions shop, we all pay a lot, he sometimes hovers around the wealthy nobles and celebrities, and some people will tell me privately that he often has a close relationship with a certain marquise, in fact, the life of a low-level magician in the imperial capital is not as glamorous as it seems on the surface. ”

"Originally, we had planned that he would marry the young lady of the Hopkinson family first, and obtain the primary magical herb channel of the Hopkinson family, so that we could slowly develop our potions shop, I met the young lady of the Hopkinson family, although she was a somewhat squeamish aristocratic lady, but she was not too difficult to get along with. If it weren't for the outbreak of the Plane War, I'm afraid we would all be married to Halib by now. ”

"It's a pity that the Hopkinson family is the largest magic herb merchant in the Green Empire, in the first year of the plane war, the Hopkinson family has fallen to three rich planes rich in magic grass, and the Hopkinson family has spent all their assets to build a knight order in order to regain those three planes, and let Miss Hopkinson be a lover to a southern lord, but unfortunately even so, the Hopkinson family failed to save the fate of the family, and the next winter their family moved out of the imperial capital en masse, completely withdrawing from the stage of the imperial capital's wealthy nobles, and our potions shop has become more difficult。 ”

"During that time, we even wanted to give up the potions shop, and it was at that time that Halib's personality changed little by little, he lost patience for everything, his personality became a little irritable, and his whole person seemed very gloomy, and it was rare to see his smile from that time on. ”

During that time he became Lady Cecilia's lover, and I heard that the marquise's husband was leading the Knights in battle against the Nagraman legions on the plane battlefield, and won several battles in the early stages of the war, bringing back a large number of captured magical herbs from the front, but unfortunately later all the legions fell to the Pandora plane, and Lady Cecilia also sold the imperial capital and returned to the southern territory. ”

I also know a little about this Lady Cecilia, but I didn't expect that Helib and Jerkis still had this relationship, and I don't know if they had ever met......

I heard something from Erica's story, and it seemed that Erica didn't have a Vernon at all in her life, or even a snib!

I couldn't help but hold my hand down to my forehead and sigh softly, poor senior Vernon!

"Senior Erica, has Senior Vernon never officially confessed to you?" I asked curiously, and I couldn't help but complain in my heart that Senior Vernon was really a coward.

Erica's face turned red, and she tried her best to make her tone look solemn, "When I graduated, he suddenly found me at the Potions Society's dinner and said a bunch of inexplicable things, at the time I thought he was drunk and said nonsense, and I didn't see him look for me again...... At that time, Helib and I had a good relationship, and later, when Helib became Lady Cecilia's lover, he always sneaked into the potions shop, and later had a big fight with Helib because of it. ”

"You and Senior Halib should have officially broken up, right?" I asked Erika seriously, staring into her eyes.

Erica's eyes were full of sadness, she silently poured herself a cup of lemon tea, the tea overflowed the cup without stopping, and muttered: "He has deviated from normal life, we have serious differences in our future life, there is no way to continue, I can't save him, and I don't want to fall with him, separation is probably the best choice." ”

"In that case, then why don't you want to accept Senior Vernon, as his good friend, I can guarantee that he is a trustworthy person. "After that, I felt more like a salesman in a store, but I realized right away that Erica seemed to have known Senior Vernon longer, and she should know more about Senior Vernon.

Senior Sister Erica has the gentleness of the southern women of the Green Empire, she is not like Tracy, she is very aggressive in everything she does, and she speaks very straight, and she can tell at a glance whether she likes it or not.

Erica also had a ladylike look when she blushed, and she said, "It's impossible between us...... When facing him, I will have an indescribable embarrassment. ”

I felt a little unworthy for Senior Vernon, and I couldn't help but say in a questioning tone, "Why is that?"

Erica sat across from me, her face flushed, and she hesitated for a long time before she mustered up the courage to finish the sentence in one breath. For example, if one of your best friends and his girlfriend are often in your life, and he usually takes care of you in all kinds of ways, but you also go on all kinds of wild experiences and adventures together, and he and his girlfriend don't even shy away from you when they do those things, you don't even know what positions they like, and when your best friend and girlfriend break up, and his girlfriend comes to you and confesses to you, will you mind?"

"Erica-senpai, I seem to understand a little......" I said weakly, taking advantage of the fact that the awkward atmosphere had not yet completely spread.

Hurriedly found an excuse to leave the cabin and ran to the deck outside the floating airship to take a breath.

I sat on a large barrel on the high deck, clutching a linen rope in my hand, and watched the airship speed over the clouds.

"Irelia must have asked me to say 'thank you' to you on her behalf. "Ying Li stepped out of the back deck, and I reached out and pulled her to the high platform, her hands tightly grasping the rope on the fence, and her hair fluttering in the wind.

"Why thank me?" I narrowed.

Ying Li looked very happy, and smiled as gracefully as an elf, she tied her long windswept hair back her head, and whispered, "Of course, I want to thank you for saving so many Cana slaves!"
