() The port of Vila in the southeast of the West Lofe Kingdom is a busy seaport city, to the east is the commercial power of the Republic of Monis, as the inland sea port of the Olopa Sea, although it is not as good as the capital of the Monis Republic, the capital of the Kingdom of St. Oluffi, the capital of the Kingdom of St. Oluffi, the capital of the Rocal Empire, Alexandria, Limansek, the Papal Dominion, is famous, but as the fifth-largest port on the coast of the Olopa Sea, the city of Vila has a unique advantage, because there is a river that runs directly into the interior of the kingdom of Villot, and every year thousands of travelers from the West Lotah or the Snowy Federation pass this river to Vila and from there to the south by boat

Ray picked up his brother and walked slowly to the dock

Thanks to Cassius's efforts, the ship docked a day earlier than scheduled, but due to the overcasting of the spell, Cassius was in a state of extreme weakness, both physically and mentally, and now could not even eat lunch, which was a very unusual phenomenon, and Ray was very worried

Under normal circumstances, mages who overcast spells and caused prostration only needed a few days of adequate rest to recover, but now that Cassius and Ray had no time to rest, they had to rush back to the Snowy Federation to find Reguno

This meant that for a long time, Cassius had lost his ability to cast spells - Ray felt that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy, and before his brother could recover his mana, he had to take up the defense of two people by himself, and after the battle of the town, Ray deeply felt that there were many hidden potential dangers that could appear at any time and take their lives

As soon as the two brothers came ashore, they had to look for a new boat, and the sea boat they had been riding in the past few days was too large to enter the Fur River, so they had to rent a smaller river boat

Ray had Cassius sit alone on a bench in the docks, and then he hurried to the riverside of the docks to find a suitable boat

Cassius knew that nothing could be done to help him in his present physical and mental condition, and as he sat down on the bench with his eyes closed and pretended to sleep, he had to hurry up and recuperate, even if only for a minute or a second

Two minutes later, Cassius heard a familiar voice: "Uncle, please, take me to the south."

A rude male voice resolutely rejected her: I said, you little girl, are you annoying, what's the use of begging in this dock every day, who will take you if you don't have money

As long as you take me on the boat, I can do anything, I can do the dishes, I can mop the floor, I can help my uncles fold their pants, and the delicate girl's voice is still begging bitterly, I can also practice alchemy, I can help you make the gold products you need

Cut what you crippled Tong helped the man's attitude is unquestionable

Uncle, please, the girl is still trying her last in vain

I don't care about you

Then I heard the sound of a hard object hitting the ground, followed by a girl's snort

Cassius opened his eyes as soon as he heard the familiar voice, propped up his weak body, and searched for the source of the sound, and soon he met the girl behind a stack of tall boxes......

Sure enough, it was her

A sixteen- or seventeen-year-old girl was lying on the ground covered with dirty water, wiping her tears and picking up pieces of wood scattered around her—if it weren't for two fairly intact wheels, no one would have thought that these jumbled pieces of wood would have been a wheelchair a minute ago, and the girl's already tattered clothes had been half stained with dirty blisters

Ischenova Cassius called out the girl's name

Hearing the shouts to herself, Ishenova immediately stopped, but perhaps she thought she might have misheard, shook her head, and went back to her business

Cassius saw that Ishennova did not respond to his call, and was anxious, and immediately increased the noise, and shouted again: Ischennova

At this time, Ishenova confirmed that what she heard was not an auditory hallucination, so she hurriedly searched in the direction from which the voice came, and then her gaze fixed on a chubby figure

Ahh......h Cassiu ...... When Ishinova saw that familiar face, she fainted on the spot with excitement

Young man, are you really going to the Snowy Federation The captain of the hemp face looked the young man in front of him up and down

Yes, Captain, what's wrong with that, the look in the hemp face made Ray very uncomfortable

Look at it, the captain pointed to a large area of small boats in the inland area of the harbor, which were the ships that usually carried passengers to and from the interior

That...... Explain what Ray is a little confused about the captain's headless words

Our business has dropped by 70% in the last month, do you know why, because the passengers from the Snowy Federation suddenly disappeared, and the captain explained that we can only rely on a small number of travelers from our own country to support our livelihoods, and business is difficult, young man, you are my first business in a week

What do you mean...... Something special happened to the Snowy Federation, and Lei immediately realized that things might not be simple

Who knows what the captain said about the mages, and no one knows what they are doing, but I heard from some travelers that the mages closed the checkpoints in and out of the Valley of Sin more than a month ago, and no one can come back from the north of the Limit Mountains, including many southern merchants who have gone to the Snowy Federation to do business

Lei scratched his scalp and rolled his eyes, this is indeed a very important situation, and he must tell his brother immediately

Cassius finally ...... When I found you, I tried to open my eyes, and the first thing I saw was that round face and honest smile

Cassius did everything he could to carry Ischennova back to the bench

Originally, although Cassius had not been trained as a warrior, it would not be very wasteful to carry the petite Ishinova up, but his body was in a state of extreme prostration at this time, and it was at least several times harder than the original to lift heavy objects

I rubbed her temples vigorously and fed her some water, and gradually the girl's consciousness regained a little

Looking at the girlish and weak demeanor, Cassius was a little distressed: Don't talk about other things, you haven't eaten for a few days

Suddenly, Cassius felt a chill in his neck, and he looked over to see a dagger glittering with cold light resting on his shoulder, the sharp blade aimed at the major artery in his neck

The mage is aware of all your money

Shocked, Cassius suddenly found fourteen hooligans around the bench, needless to say, they were all borgs on the docks.
