Chapter 96: Valland
As soon as their feet touched the planks of the dock, the two little ones in cloaks looked around excitedly, eager to go to the harbor. In order to keep Emily from running around, Leia grabbed her sister's little hand. The haggard face under the hood, although it still looked a little pale, had recovered a lot compared to last night.
Behind him, a column of guards in silver armor and men dressed in the aristocratic costumes of the Rick Kingdom walked towards Jiang Feng's side. Next to him, followed by a man and a woman, the man was handsome, the woman was soft and dignified, and the age looked like she was only eighteen or nineteen years old.
"Honorable Wizard, the contemptible Jeris Cuman, Earl of the Gasman Domain, Lord of the Seals of His Majesty the King. We are sorry that our Majesty is fighting the rebels on the front lines and is unable to welcome you personally. Allow me to express my sincere apologies to you on behalf of Your Majesty. Jerrys, who was dressed in a noble dress with red and white sleeves, elegantly saluted Jiang Feng, and then introduced the people around him, "This is Prince Sai'an, and this is Princess Sophia." ”
"It's nice to meet you, you're as handsome as rumored." Princess Sophia, who was wearing a long dress with a frilled edge, lifted the corners of her skirt and saluted Jiang Feng elegantly, with a sweet smile on her beautiful face.
"Hear rumors about me in Warland?"
"Of course, the young and handsome wizard thwarted Solore's plot, decapitated the doppelganger with his sword, and dispelled the curse that entwined the port of Sevit with his staff," Princess Sophia pursed her lips and smiled, her red lips curled like a crescent moon, "The bards of Valland have even begun to write an epic about you, and your name can be heard in the taverns of the streets." ”
"Under Se'an Sereying," after Princess Sophia, Prince Se'an politely saluted Jiang Feng and said warmly, "On behalf of my father, I welcome Lord Wizard to Valland, and we have prepared a sumptuous food and wine for you in the royal palace, hoping to wash away the fatigue accumulated on your journey." ”
"Thank you." Jiang Feng nodded slightly.
Not far away, the captured brig sails had docked, and the boys of the port of Sevit had boarded the harbor one after another to be inspected by the kingdom's quartermaster. Jiang Feng found Connie, and after saying a brief goodbye to him, he took the three "apprentices" behind him and got into the carriage to the palace with the minister named Jeris.
On the other side, Captain Kairut, who had said goodbye to Jiang Feng on the deck, did not stay in the harbor for long, and while sending his men to the bazaar to buy supplies, he led people to deposit a part of the UBS that Jiang Feng had rewarded them with in Warland. Immediately afterward, everyone returned to the ship without even taking a sip of their wine.
The cabin still contained treasure looted from Raven Harbor, and he couldn't sleep until the wizard's belongings were delivered safely. They won't stay in Valland for long this time, and will leave for Crocodile Island in the afternoon.
……
Surrounded by palace guards, richly decorated carriages followed the main road of Valoran in the direction of the palace.
For Jiang Feng's courtesy, the royal family of Rick Kingdom followed the standards of the prince level. After all, it is a clone who can defeat Solol, and with a two-mast sail with a broken mast, the existence of Captain Monkyrie, who has been crisscrossing the ocean for a hundred years, has proved the strength of Jiang Feng's three-star wizard or even three-star or above.
For a wizard with such strength, even an empire on the other side of the sea will do everything possible to curry favor with him, or at least not to make enemies with him.
In the carriage, Prince Sai'an, who was sitting opposite Jiang Feng, was very talkative, chatting with Jiang Feng about the interesting stories on the Aditya continent and the customs of various places. Princess Sophia, who was sitting diagonally opposite Jiang Feng, looked at him with a smile on her face since she got into the carriage, her blue eyes flashing with interest.
When her brother was chatting with the wizard, Sophia would occasionally say a few words. Especially when she found that the wizard in front of her was not as unkind as those wizards in the legend, she gradually let go of her restraint and no longer concealed her curiosity and yearning for the wizard profession between words.
"I've heard that wizards never age, is that really the case?" Blinking her curious eyes, Sophia looked at Jiang Feng and asked.
"It's an exaggeration to never grow old, even the universe has the limit of life, let alone us? It's just that for us, the time we have is much longer than the average person. Jiang Feng said with a smile.
Although she doesn't know what the universe is, it doesn't stop Sophia from envying her youth after becoming a wizard.
"Do you think I have the talent to become a wizard?" Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Sophia asked tentatively in a cautious tone.
"It's a pity that Princess Sophia is more suitable to be a princess." Jiang Feng said with a smile.
This time he didn't lie, Princess Sophia's mental power attribute was even inferior to the groom outside the car. If even the groom had the potential to become a wizard, then the wizards of this world would have been all over the streets.
A flash of disappointment flashed across her face, and Princess Sophia was depressed for a while before she regained her senses. Jiang Feng noticed that Sophia, who had regained her spirits, had a brighter smile facing her than before, I don't know if he was thinking too much, behind that charming and dignified smile, he vaguely saw a trace of eagerness.
In another carriage, sat the three apprentices of the wizard.
"Really, why do I have to wear a hood like you, and die of discomfort." As soon as the carriage departed, Ira took off the hood from her head, crossed her arms and leaned back on the velvet seat, and whispered a grumbling.
Leia and Emily sat together, and Ela sat across from her alone.
Because her body had not fully recovered, after getting into the carriage, Leia sat quietly in the carriage and closed her eyes to recuperate. As for Emily, as soon as she got into the carriage, she took off her shoes, climbed restlessly onto the cushion, and leaned at the window of the carriage, staring straight out of the window, rarely without arguing with Eran.
It's boring if no one cares about you, Yi Ran glanced at the little ghost lying in the window and spoke.
"Hey, what are you looking at?"
"Vixen." Emily whispered back subconsciously.
"What?"
"That woman," Emily pouted, looking at Princess Sophia, who was chatting and laughing with Jiang Feng in the carriage, and said unhappily, "She must have intentions for the wizard." ”
"If there is an attempt, there is an attempt," said Ira, yawning and lacking interest, "What does it have to do with you?" ”
"It doesn't matter what you mean," the two eyebrows raised, Emily crossed her hands on her hips, glared at Yi Ran dissatisfied, and said confidently, "Emily is the fiancée of the wizard, isn't it normal to be angry when you see the wizard and other women talking to me?" ”
"Yes, yes," Ira waved her hand impatiently, crossing her legs, "and then?" Miss 'Wizard-sama's fiancée', now that your Wizard-sama has taken a fancy to another woman, what are you going to do? ”
"Hmm...... Wizards aren't the kind of people who like the new and hate the old. With a pout, Emily recklessly.
"That's not easy to say," said Ira in a playful tone, holding her arms crossed, "as far as I know, men like big breasts." ”
Glancing at Yiran's chest, Emily, who was still sulking, suddenly snickered.
"Poof—"
"What are you laughing at!" Yi Ran's face turned red instantly.
With her index finger pulling at her lower eyelids, Emily stuck out her tongue and grimaced at her.
"Briefly, no matter how small Emily is, she's still bigger than some imp who always pretends to be an adult."
Her brows twitched violently, and a terrifying smile appeared on Yi Ran's face, and her fists crackled.
"You guy, do you want to fight?"
Fortunately, Leia sat here and watched, and the two did not fight in the end.
The carriage arrived safely at the gate of the palace, and the journey was calm and gratifying.
