Ship Building heard footsteps again from the stairs, and Sabrina walked out of the stairs.

Seeing everyone sitting around under the main mast on the deck, she was slightly startled when her eyes fell on Roy.

She paused for a moment, then walked over calmly...

The afternoon sun shines on her body, and the sea breeze blows her long golden hair. Sabrina is wearing a silver armor, and her long snow-white legs under the battle skirt are particularly conspicuous.

Serugi Longsword was hanging around her waist. Although she had restrained her aura, every step she took was very impressive.

Sabrina put the long sword on the weapon rack, and then sat quietly next to Moira. He first glanced at Roy, briefly greeted him, and then asked Moira: "What were you talking about just now?"

"We have been discussing Queen Ivini Islands Naval Battle." Moira leaned on her sister's shoulder and whispered.

Roy looked at Sabrina. Wood Elf's bloodline made her much taller than ordinary elves. Moira looked very small next to her.

"Sabrina, come Pattington Plane to help me this holiday!"

Roy raised his head, looked at Sabrina, and formally invited her.

Sabrina majored in swordsmanship at the Elf Academy, and has now been promoted to a first-level Sword Dancer.

Roy knows that she also studied "Art of War", "Potential Relationships Between Tactics and Arms", "Conversion of Offense and Defense" and so on in the Elf Academy.

If she could serve in the army, then Sabrina would already be considered an outstanding officer.

Mine Guard Regiment happens to lack academic officers like Sabrina. Roy hopes that Sabrina can stay in Mine Guard Regiment for a while, so that the Half-Elf officers in Guard Regiment can learn some useful things.

In fact, Sabrina trained Half-Elf Warrior on West Reef Islands, which was indeed of great help to these Half-Elf Warrior.

"Okay, okay!"

Sabrina Although a little surprised, he readily agreed.

Seeing Roy inviting Sabrina to Pattington Plane, Woods knew that Sun Island Bay might have a war in the next period of time. After all, Sabrina also served as Mine Guard Regiment's military instructor when he was at West Reef Islands.

"Didn't you say that Sun Island Bay's war might subside for a while?" Woods asked Roy.

"Those fishmen will not always be so peaceful. They suffered a big loss in this naval battle. I guess those sea monsters will definitely take revenge next." Roy said calmly. He was much more mature and calm than a year ago.

He turned to look at Miss Tiffany who was looking at the sea in the distance on the side of the ship, and said, "I came back this time just to ask Tiffany to go to Pattington Plane to help me in advance."

Moira said with some surprise, "Ah, Tiffany, are you going to Pattington Plane before us again this time?"

Miss Tiffany turned to Moira and smiled warmly. The sea breeze ruffled her seaweed-colored curly hair and said casually, "Roy wants me to go to Sun Island Bay and find a chance to communicate with the siren over there..."

Seeing Moira frowning, Miss Tiffany leaned forward with his hands on his body and whispered against Moira's soft pointed ears, "Moira, don't worry, it will be vacation again in a month."

If it is not the solution of Miss Tiffany. The introverted Moira may not be brave enough to walk out of the yard, let alone go to any dimension for adventure and experience.

Moira and Miss Tiffany are the best friends.

Hearing Miss Tiffany say this, Moira thought it was right after thinking about it seriously!

Due to the excessive modification of Woods, this Black Pearl makes the whole ship look like five lush trees. In addition, there is a small plantation on top of the tail Ship Building.

Originally, Roy planned to transform the top of Ship Building into a garden for cultivating Light Flower. Unexpectedly, Woods used too much force and turned it directly into a small plantation. As a result, everyone wanted to sit on the roof, but there was not enough space.

When Klayr climbed onto the deck, Roy was already preparing to set up the barbecue grill on the boat.

Seeing Roy unexpectedly appear on the deck, Klayr said excitedly, "I always feel like something good happened today. It turns out that Roy is back from Pattington. How long can you stay this time?"

Klayr walked over and put his arms around Roy's shoulders.

Roy is pickling sea fish, and Woods is helping to light a charcoal fire.

"We should stay for a few days. If you don't come tonight, I will go to the college to find you tomorrow morning." Roy said, "Klayr, do you have any connections in the shipbuilding industry at Castleton City?"

Klayr The first thing that comes to mind is this Black Pearl, but now there seems to be no need to repair this ship!

"Do you want to repair the ship or build the ship?" Klayr asked.

Roy answered calmly:

"I plan to build some large sailing boats like Three-Masted Sailboat."

Klayr realized that Roy was actually serious, and then scratched his head a little, and said, "Most of the elven craftsmen are good at making Flying Fish Boat. The medium-sized sailboats at the entrance of Castleton Harbour were all bought from the Wood Elf Kingdom. Castleton City has no elf craftsmen who can build big ships."

Roy did not expect that even Castleton Harbour could not find an elf craftsman who was good at making Great Sea Ship, so he tentatively asked:

"What about the dwarf craftsmen?"

"I'm going to inquire about it tomorrow." Klayr sat down and said.

"Okay, I'll wait for your news." Roy said.

Klayr is a little confused, why Roy suddenly wants to build a ship...

Thinking that Roy still had another trouble, he couldn't help but remind Roy: "Oh, by the way, Roy, you killed the descendants of Silver Moon Elven Nobles in Pattington Plane, has been passed to Buenos City. It is estimated that if the other party refuses to let go, maybe the Buenos City elf Elder Council Tribunal will send investigators to Pattington Plane to investigate this matter, so you must be prepared."

Roy heard Commander Berkeley talk about it, and thought Earl Swynborne suppressed the matter, but he didn't expect that this matter would actually reach Buenos City.

"They want to investigate the cause of Mine Owner Abel's death?" Roy asked.

Klayr said with a serious face, "Well, now there is a loud voice in Buenos City supporting Mine Owner Abel..."

Roy shook his head and said, "I haven't received any news from here."

Klayr didn't find it strange, and said to Roy, "Earl Swynborne should have suppressed the news."

Roy also knows that Earl Swynborne has blocked many malicious attacks for Roy. In the final analysis, it is because he is not a Silver Moon Elf.

Klayr looked at the Castleton dock and whispered to Roy, "Imperial Merchant has been going to Alchemy Workshop frequently recently. They buy Magic Herbs everywhere at Castleton City. As long as a ship is filled, the ship will leave Castleton Harbour quickly."

Although Roy also knew that Imperial Merchant was buying Magic Herbs, he didn't expect that those businessmen were already so crazy.

Just when Roy looked puzzled, Klayr whispered to Roy, "I heard that Grimm Empire's Plane War is playing very lively, and many subsidiary planes have fallen, so Roy you should be careful on Pattington Plane."

"Yes." Roy nodded.

Then everyone talked about the interesting things that happened to the Elf Academy.

As the most famous student of the Castleton Elf Academy, Klayr recently received an invitation from a royal princess. For Klayr, this invitation is tantamount to a public confession. If Klayr openly refuses, it will obviously offend the Silver Moon Elf royal family.

But if he is invited to participate in a high-profile manner, it means that he intends to join the Silver Moon Elf royal family...

Klayr simply doesn't want to give up the entire Jadeite Forest for a golden tree.

So recently Klayr has been using the procrastination technique and hiding in the piano room every day to compose music.

It's just that End-of-Term Ball and Klayr have to be played at the dance every time.

This time he really wanted to play a new song, but after such a long time of trying to create something like this, Klayr was completely disappointed with himself...

"Ahem, that's going to be End-of-Term Ball soon, Roy, and I plan to play a new song at this dance. Have you had any inspiration recently?" Klayr said a little guilty.

Roy looked at the bright sunshine, walked to the bow of the ship with Klayr in his arms, and stood on the huge copper ram.

You can clearly hear the sound of the waves here...

Roy said to Klayr, "This is easy!"

After saying that, he stood on the bow of the boat, facing the sun, closing his eyes and opening his hands, as if he was feeling the warm sunshine...

At this moment, the rainy season of Castleton City has passed, and this time happens to be the autumn of Castleton City.

On this sunny afternoon, Roy stood on the bow of the ship and hummed a melody very clearly.

Klayr immediately opened his eyes, took out the sheepskin notebook he had always prepared from his arms, and quickly drew a series of symbols on the blank sheet of music.

"Roy, what's the name of this piece of music?" Klayr hummed the melody following Roy and couldn't help but ask him.

Roy stopped and asked his friend with a smile, "Klayr, what do you think it should be named?"

Klayr was stunned for a moment, feeling that the piece of music just now was like warm sunshine shining on him, while he was lying in the sunflower field, enjoying the quiet afternoon, so he blurted out. "Autumn sun?"

Roy felt that the name given by Klayr was a bit off, so he said to Klayr, "If it were me, I would call it 'Autumn Whisper'!"

Hearing Roy say this, Klayr's eyes lit up, he quickly picked up the pen and squeezed it onto the parchment paper, writing while saying:

"Roy, I think you..."

Before Klayr could finish speaking, Roy immediately interrupted him:

"Klayr, feel the bright sunshine carefully, then calm down your heart and listen to the sound in the wind..."

"Roy, I can only hear the sound of the waves." Klayr paused for a long time and said with some distress.

"Then I suggest you find a hillside with golden alfalfa and feel the autumn sunshine there. Maybe this beautiful melody will emerge from the bottom of your heart!"

Roy encouraged Klayr again.

At night, Klayr took a carriage back to Upper District, and Woods also wanted to return to Alchemy Workshop.

Roy, Moira and Sabrina walked home along Brown Street.

Goddess of Freedom Temple is still vacant. The stone crevices in the courtyard are covered with weeds. It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. Even the statue of Goddess of Freedom in the center of the dry pool has collapsed.

When passing by the street corner, Roy seemed to have something, and glanced at the street corner Potion Shop.

Then he stopped and said to Moira and Sabrina who were walking in front, "I'm going to see my old friends, you guys go first!"

Moira knew that the old friend he was talking about was probably the big black cat in Mrs. Winnie's family, so he obediently pulled his sister Sabrina home.

Roy turned around and came to Potion Shop's shrub wall at Mrs. Winnie's house. He happened to see Night Blade Leopard sticking his head out from under the shrub wall...

But before Roy could squat down, he saw a pair of exquisite leather shoes appearing next to him. Looking up his thick carrot legs, he saw that they were Mrs. Winnie.

Mrs. Winnie looked at Roy with a smile on his face and greeted him:

"Roy."

"Mrs. Winnie, hello!" Roy said respectfully.

Speaking of which, this Mrs. Winnie can be regarded as helping Roy.

"I heard that you have been working at Pattington Plane?" Mrs. Winnie asked Roy.

Roy nodded. "I usually work in Pattington Plane's mine."

Mrs. Winnie stared at Roy and said to him, "I am looking for you this time because I have something to ask you."

Seeing Mrs. Winnie's serious look, Roy also became serious. "You said, I will definitely do what I can do."

Mrs. Winnie squatted down with difficulty. It seemed that her knees were uncomfortable.

She squatted next to Night Blade Leopard, stroking the top of Night Blade Leopard's head with her hands, her eyes as if staring at her own son...

Mrs. Winnie's voice was a little hoarse and slightly sad. "This little guy has grown up. In the past, I could feed it by just picking up some fish on Fish Market. Now, one meal of food for it is enough to feed our family for two weeks, and it needs a wider environment. Living space, if possible, it is best to return to its tribe, but it has been living in the world of elves, and I am worried that it cannot be accepted by its tribe, so I would like to ask you to help bring it to Pattington Plane, let it live in the jungle there for a while, and regain some wildness."

Then she looked at Roy, stared into his eyes and said, "I know it has a good relationship with you and trusts you. You will help me take care of it, right?"

"Of course, Mrs. Winnie!" Roy was startled by Mrs. Winnie's actions and said, "Well, I mean... I will take care of it, but Mrs. Winnie, are you really planning to let it return to the jungle?"

"Yes, only by returning to the jungle can its life become complete."

Mrs. Winnie pulled the fur on Night Blade Leopard's face with his hand. Night Blade Leopard just turned his head slightly to avoid it, not daring to show the slightest dissatisfaction...
