Thanks to hydrich for 1 commuter pass.
……………………
Led by Retanas, Roland soon arrived at the teleportation circle located in the corner of the first floor of the Wizards' Guild.
Obviously, there are not many people using the magic array now, and the surroundings are empty, and even the magician in charge of management is dozing off on the side.
"Hey, hello, I want to use this teleportation magic array."
Roland stepped forward slowly, came to the sleeping magician, and whispered.
But his voice didn't wake the guy, and the snoring still came smoothly from the guy's mouth.
"Lord Roland, let me wake him up!"
When Retanas officially became Roland's apprentice, she changed her address to him from "Roland Mage" to "Lord Roland". From this simple name, it can be seen that Retanas has great respect for this new teacher.
"Hmm."
For this suggestion, Roland did not refuse.
"Hey, old fellow, someone brought you money, wake up!"
Retanas stepped forward with a grin, slammed the table hard, and whispered.
"What! Who? Whoever wants to send me money. ”
As soon as the words fell, the old magician who was guarding the teleportation magic array immediately bounced up from his chair and looked around excitedly.
However, when he saw Roland and Retanas in front of him, his excited expression immediately subsided and returned to a calm state.
"Hey, young hunter, do you want to use the teleportation magic circle? However, the price of using the magic circle is not cheap, are you sure you have enough wealth? ”
"Yes, I want to go to the southwestern part of the Brumman Empire, the small town of Maple Leaf."
After hearing Roland's answer. A look of surprise appeared on the old magician's face: "Maple Leaf Town? Hell, there aren't many adventurers willing to go to that ghost place right now, and I don't know if the teleportation array there is deserted. ”
"Well, there's something going to get done in that place."
Roland nodded and said awkwardly.
He didn't mind the old magician's words. Because the south-west of Bluman is simply forested, it can even be described as deserted. There are only a few small towns in that huge territory
This is also one of the reasons why those nobles are reluctant to take over.
No population, equal to no taxes, and eventually become a poor territory, which is a sight that most nobles do not want to see.
"Well, in that case, I won't advise you either...... Due to the distance, a gold coin is required. ”
The old magician sighed and said.
Since the other party insists on going to that place. He couldn't dissuade him anymore, and immediately began to charge the teleportation magic array.
"Hmm."
Roland smiled and handed over a gold coin to the old magician.
Although the price is a bit expensive, it is only this time. Because in the future, he will set up a teleportation magic array over there, which will be used as a secret passage to the imperial capital, after all, there are many things that are not suitable for carrying out in the complex imperial capital Aston City.
"I guess you're going to venture into that place, and the barren place is a good place to adventure. But...... The premise is that you have to pray that the teleportation array over there is not destroyed. ”
As he spoke, the old magician came to the magic circle. Skillfully turn it on.
With a buzz, I saw that the magic array on the ground immediately emitted a dazzling faint blue light. Illuminates the surrounding area.
"Very good, now the teleportation array is ready, you all go in!"
"Is this space magic? Perhaps when you have the opportunity, you should take a look at the books on this subject, which should be helpful in the secondary time field. ”
Looking at the teleportation magic array, Roland couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart.
Truly. In a way, the secondary time realm is a type of space magic, but relatively speaking, the level of that skill may be relatively high.
Just as he was about to step into the teleportation magic circle with Retanas, suddenly. The old magician on the side stopped them with a voice: "Hey, boy...... Remember, watch out for the beasts in the forest. ”
"Thanks, I'll take note."
Roland was stunned for a moment, what did he mean? Watch out for the beasts in the woods?
Maybe...... It's just a kind reminder.
Roland suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, and then continued to walk towards the teleportation magic array.
The moment he and Retanas' feet stepped inside, the sight was completely shrouded in blue light, and nothing could be seen. It didn't take long for a soft buzz to fill the ears of both of them, constantly echoing.
And at the same time as the voice sounded, a strong pulling force continued to cling to him, as if it was going to take Roland somewhere.
“………………”
Faced with the abnormality, Roland did not feel nervous.
Because this is a symptom of long-distance teleportation, it will not have any effect, at most it will cause symptoms similar to seasickness.
Soon, the light of the teleportation magic array dimmed, and the figures of Roland and the others disappeared as if out of air.
"Alas...... Let's hope he won't be in any danger! You know, it's the way it is, but there's a very important reason for that. ”
The old magician sat back in his chair, yawned, and said, "But then again, how could that Retanas go on an adventure with a hunter boy?" The current apprentices of magic are so idle...... I want to ............ back then"
As he spoke, soon the old magician fell back into a deep sleep, a steady snoring echoing through the corner.
………………………………
At the same time, in the southwest of Bluman.
Often referred to as a barren place, you won't see any signs of a large city-state even if you spend a whole day, only dense beasts scurrying from within.
But any adventurer who has been to this place will have a doubt in his heart:
Why are there only a few small towns left in this land that occupies one-seventh of the empire?
As time passed, rumors began to circulate among adventurers, such as why the land was cursed or that the entire area was taken over by a terrifying beast.
Anyway, as long as you can come up with a version of the rumors. Almost all of them have said it from the mouths of these adventurers.
Today's Maple Leaf Town, however, there was something that surprised the residents of the town: there were two adventurers in the town.
Moreover, these two adventurers arrived through the long-abandoned magic teleportation array.
That's right, these two adventurers are Roland and Ritanas.
The process of getting through the magic teleportation array was not very long, and almost in the blink of an eye, Roland found himself in a completely unfamiliar area.
The moment they came out of the magic teleportation array. Roland himself was fine, but Ritanath seemed to be amiss.
As if she were seasick, she ran quickly to the corner beside her and vomited wildly.
"Alas...... As a magician, how could he be afraid of such a thing? ”
Roland sighed helplessly, and walked slowly over to release a healing hand for her.
With a hum, the light immediately enveloped Retanas.
Perhaps it was because she was healed by the Holy Light, and soon her pale face softened a little.
And the movement of the two of them immediately attracted the attention of the townspeople, and as time passed, the crowd of onlookers grew. Soon the magic teleportation array was surrounded by water.
"Ahem, I'm the mayor of Maple Leaf Town...... May I ask these two adventurers, why did you come here? ”
The gray-haired old mayor with a cane in his hand coughed, slowly walked in front of Roland, and said.
Unlike the old mayor's calmness, the rest of the residents had a hint of vigilance and worry in their eyes, as if they were looking at two terrible demons.
But...... This is not surprising either. After all, this place has been too long for outsiders to appear. With the sudden appearance of Roland and the others, it is inevitable that there will be some uneasiness in their hearts.
"Hello. My name is Roland, and I'm the lord who inherited the territory of Maple Town. If this is Maple Leaf Town...... I think that's right. ”
Roland turned his head, looked at the old mayor in front of him, and then said.
Perhaps worried that the old mayor would not believe it, Roland hurriedly took out the certificate issued by the king himself from the Ouroboros Ring.
I saw that it was clearly written: Maple Leaf Town's territorial owner, Roland.
The territory he inherited. It is a large area centered on this maple leaf town in front of you. Although it is not said to directly inherit the entire territory of southwestern Bluman, it also occupies about a fifth of it.
You must know that such a huge territory, as a baron, you can not have the qualifications at all.
If it weren't for the fact that this was a barren place, such a good thing would not have been the turn of Roland, the little baron.
"Inherit the lord of Maple Town? It bears the mark of the king...... It's true, my lord. My name is Jonathan. ”
Old Mayor Jonathan looked at the piece of paper carefully, nodded, and said.
When Jonathan confirmed the authenticity of the news, he immediately turned to explain Roland's identity to the townspeople, and told everyone to go back and do their own thing, and not crowd this place.
Under the persuasion of the old mayor Jonathan, the townspeople were much less wary of Roland, and slowly left from the vicinity of the magic teleportation array.
"Lord Roland, are you really a nobleman?"
At this time, Retanas looked at Roland with suspicion in his eyes and said.
It was surprising that her mentor turned out to be a nobleman with a territory.
Although there are many nobles who are magicians, at such a young age, there are not many nobles whose strength has reached the sixth order of magicians.
"Well, Miss Retanas, what's the matter?"
Roland was stunned for a moment, and looked at the apprentice beside him who had recovered from vomiting.
He had just been observing the town's surroundings and hadn't paid any attention to what Retanas was saying.
"No, no, no, it's fine, I'm just a little surprised."
"My lord, if you don't mind, I can take your former lord's house, which is still empty."
Suddenly, Jonathan, the old mayor on the side, walked over slowly and said slowly.
