"Herag, I have a child! It's a son named Wayne Sara. You're the child's godfather, so if you have the chance, come back and see him. By then, we might not be around anymore, but he should still be here."

"Master Claude's health is worsening, I don't know if he can make it through this winter."

...

"The adventurer group I established is doing better and better; it has made a name here, and many people come to me for work."

"Recently, I feel that I'm getting closer to becoming a Great Knight. It might not be long before I reach the breakthrough. By then, I'll have more power to protect Wayne, protect Melissa, and protect Jimmy and the others who followed me out."

...

"You've gone to that distant continent, you're bound to encounter many dangers. Herag, you're still young, so be cautious of others and stay alert. The Wizard's world, according to Master Claude, is mysterious and dangerous. You must be very careful and don't be hasty in anything."

...

Emil's letter was long, full of family affairs, and Herag read it very patiently.

Until he reached the end, he realized he had been reading for a long time and felt he hadn't read enough.

It felt as if Emil was right in front of him chatting, and he wanted to chat a bit longer, but the letter had ended.

Herag sighed, carefully putting the letter back and then storing it well in his Space Ring.

He then proceeded to open Lillian's letter.

"I've heard there's some friction between your Moonlight Forest and Green Cottage, it's quite unsettled, and a war might even break out. If you don't know where to go, you can come to me; no Wizard would dare to lay a hand on you at Augustus Academy."

...

"I don't know if this letter will reach you while you're still at Moonlight Forest, but if you have other avenues, be very cautious once you're out."

"If you come across any relics, don't enter them. Most Wizard relics are beyond the capability of us Wizard Apprentices to explore. You can remember their location and explore them after advancing to an Official Wizard."

"Remember, those places are even more dangerous than you imagine; don't go there at all!"

...

Lillian's letter mainly talked about things outside, like Wizard relics.

Herag chuckled; he read the letter late as he had already visited one.

It seems Valley Town is a Wizard relic, exhibiting many features Lillian mentioned, indeed lurking with many dangers, escaping from there was truly by luck.

However, with great risk comes great reward; the Stone Slab of Great Dark Heaven alone was worth the adventure.

Herag put down the letter, intending to visit Augustus Academy later after the situation stabilized.

Augustus Academy, unlike other Wizard Organizations, does not prohibit Wizards from other organizations from entering its premises.

Even if other organizations' Wizards want to visit, they must go through a strict approval process to be allowed in.

However, Augustus Academy only requires a simple registration, advance notification, and application, allowing people from other Wizard Organizations to visit.

In some sense, it really is like an academy, more open compared to other Wizard Organizations.

Of course, they're able to do this because of their formidable strength.

It's said that a powerful Wizard Organization supports Augustus Academy, which is the source of its confidence, and other Wizard Organizations don't dare to provoke it easily.

Looking at the map, Augustus Academy, Moonlight Forest, and Green Cottage, these Wizard Organizations are all located on the outskirts of the Kala Continent, merely on a protruding corner of it.

Going further north, there are still vast unknown regions.

The force backing Augustus Academy originates from that unknown region.

Herag's Space Ring also contains a Heart of the Ocean Necklace, prepared as a return gift for Lillian. He plans to give it to her and take a tour of the renowned Augustus Academy once the situation settles.

All these plans must wait until the situation stabilizes, which Herag is unsure of at the moment, and will need to consult Mr. Larry the day after tomorrow.

Herag returned to his room, cleaned it once more, took a hot bath, and then lay in bed to meditate.

Before meditating, as usual, he mixed a Starry Sky Potion and drank it to slightly increase his meditation speed.

A day later, Herag began walking into town, intending to visit Mr. Larry.

As he walked through the town's streets, he noticeably felt there were fewer people.

Someone like him, who could find a chance to leave Moonlight Forest and avoid the war, was in the minority; more people were forced to stay and participate in the war.

As it stands, those missing are likely to have already died in the war.

Herag looked at the Talisman Stone's friend list, and there was no reply from Leo.

The impression Herag had of Leo was of a very diligent person, who was both setting up a stall at the flea market and studying Magic.

This person didn't have much of a background, so he probably couldn't leave Moonlight Forest. With no reply from him, he most likely also died in the war.

Bessie was still alive, but it seemed she was injured and bedridden at home, saying they could meet once she felt better.

Herag arrived in front of Larry's building, knocked on the door, and it was still Gami, the old house elf, who opened it.

Gami looked older than before, struggling even to walk.

"The master's on the second floor, you can go up yourself. Gami can't move," Gami said feebly.

Herag gave him a glance and went upstairs.

Larry was taking off his rubber gloves, still wearing safety goggles.

Seeing Herag, he smiled, "I knew I wasn't wrong about you! Already a Third Class Wizard Apprentice, truly impressive. Your cultivation speed is nearly catching up with those scored in the 90s, really not bad."

Herag's cultivation speed was beyond Larry's expectations. He hadn't anticipated Herag would return as a Third Class Wizard Apprentice after just a trip out, which is an achievement that's quite tough outside.

"I was just lucky," Herag smiled.

He took a wooden box from his Space Ring, opening it to reveal the Moonstone Grass inside.

Larry walked over to take the wooden box, observed the Moonstone Grass, and nodded, "Very good, mission completed successfully."

"Isn't Gami near death? He seems out of it," Herag asked.

Larry glanced upstairs and said, "Pretty much, he's quite old now, probably only has another fifty years left."

"Fifty years..." Herag was speechless; the Elf Race's lifespan was indeed ridiculously long.

Gami looked like a wreck, yet could still live for another fifty years, really tenacious enough.
