Bauhinia Flower Earl

After rejecting the clown from the Ring of Thorns organization, Saine headed west.

Now that they had entered the territory of the Lisia Alliance, Saine no longer needed to worry about his identity.

I have a lot of Gold Coin. Some were given to me by the old man with the goatee when he bought the Hurricane Arrow Boar, and some were given to me by the fat city lord of City of Peterte.

After hiring a carriage and a driver, Saine galloped along the main road within the territory of the Lisia Alliance.

It must be said that the situation Saine's side the Lisia Alliance is far worse than in the Underdark.

Not only is the terrain mostly plains and densely populated here, but the roads are also much better built than those in the Underdark.

It seems that the nobles all understand the importance of road construction for the development of their territories. In the Lisia Alliance, many noble territories have wide cobblestone roads built specifically for this purpose.

On such roads, carriages travel much faster than walking.

And through the introduction of that coachman who had traveled all over the country for many years, as long as Saine paid enough wages, he could take Saine directly to the westernmost Lisia Alliance, the Ferre Territory.

After entering the territory of the Lisia Alliance, apart from being slightly affected by the Intermediate Apprentice of the Ring of Thorns organization at the beginning, Saine was mostly uneasy and unnatural.

He thought of his family, the hazy image of his Mother from his childhood, and the Grant surname.

In fact, when they were in Black Fortress, Saine could have directly inquired about the Grant family and which family it belonged to in the Lisia Alliance.

But not Saine; an inexplicable emotion made Saine back down.

So he continued to follow the faint guidance of the Bloodline Tracing Magic, searching for his Bloodline origins and family within the territory of the Lisia Alliance.

Even now, Saine is still somewhat unsure of how he should treat his family.

Is it a joyous reunion?

Or do they resent the other person for losing them, or for not searching for them for ten or twenty years?

These complex emotions have made it impossible for Saine to concentrate on studying and researching magic lately.

So Saine changed his approach. Instead of continuing to study the profound Magic Books left to him by his mentor in the Space Bracelet, he began to work on alchemy again.

The numerous gains from the journey through the Underdark and the Gloomy Mountain Range have allowed Saine to amass a considerable amount of low- and mid-level magical materials.

Most of these materials are not found in the Underground World, so even if they are used as raw materials for crafting Low-Level Magic Item, they would be of little use to Saine.

It presents a certain level of challenge and has a high failure rate.

The process of creating each magical item is a process in which Saine deepens his understanding of alchemy.

Moxidu had already warned Saine about this in his notes.

Otherwise, given Moxidu ' alchemical skills, why would he sometimes create gadgets and trinkets that he had no use for?

Was it really made specifically for his apprentices and disciples?

No! In fact, Moxidu ' high level of alchemy was achieved through countless experiments and failures.

Saine's identity Mage, and the alchemical experiments he conducted from time to time by the carriage, left the not-so-young coachman completely bewildered.

The coachman had traveled all over the country for many years, and he had only ever seen Mage from afar before, never daring to approach and disturb them.

Such close contact, and the privilege of observing an alchemist's experiment, would be enough for him to boast about for the rest of his life after this job is over.

Because of the experiments that delayed him along the way, Saine's progress within the territory of the Lisia Alliance was even slower.

Don't worry about the driver; Saine will pay enough in the end.

The main thing is that only Saine himself knows what he's really thinking.

Over the course of three months, passing through several noble territories, and after Saine even used three Low-Level Magic Item he had made along the way, "trouble" arose again.

It can't be called trouble, because the other party wasn't there to cause trouble, but rather to invite Saine to join their organization again.

This time, it was an apprenticeship organization called the Saint Harmony Society that came.

The Saint Harmony Society had always paid close attention to Saine, and with the war approaching, Advanced Apprentice with free status like Saine were becoming increasingly rare in the Lisia Alliance.

Furthermore, the Saint Harmony Society is not as arrogant as the Ring of Thorns. Although the Saint Harmony Society also has its own superior organization, they still respect Saine's personal wishes.

The lobbyists of the Saint Harmony Society had already prepared a proposal that they believed offered extremely generous benefits.

However, upon learning that this Advanced Apprentice also possessed the ability to create magical items, he immediately rejected his own proposal and quickly came up with a higher-level membership requirement.

Apprentices of different levels of magic receive different treatment when joining Mage organization.

Some lower-level magic apprentices have no way to join a magic organization, while higher-level magic apprentices do not have this problem.

The new proposal put forward by the Saint Harmony Society is sufficient to match the membership benefits of an average Quasi-Magician, this is because of Saine Sain's status.

On behalf of.

However, with the increasingly strong sensation of his Bloodline Tracing Magic, and given his complicated mindset, Saine had no interest in joining any apprentice organization and once again declined the invitation from the Saint Harmony Society.

Refusing the invitation from the Saint Harmony Society was not a big deal, at least not for Saine.

However, as the reputation of the alchemist Saine grew, more and more apprentice organizations, and even higher-level organizations with Formal Magician, began to take notice of Saine.

And as lobbyists from these magical organizations came to his door one after another, a series of events unfolded between him and Saine.

Saine's Bloodline Tracing Magic finally stopped sensing.

The fact that the sensor stopped working doesn't mean it's malfunctioning; it just means that Saine has arrived at his destination.

This is a noble territory located in the central part of the Lichia Alliance. The territory is very large, larger than that of a typical earl's territory.

Through the coachman's description and what he saw and heard after entering the territory, Saine learned that the owner of this territory was a powerful nobleman in the Lisia Alliance with the title "Bauhinia Flower Earl".

Bauhinia Flower Earl is renowned in the Lisia Alliance. Although he is a nobleman from the central region, what truly made him famous was the Mud and Sand Basin War with the Sifa Kingdom twenty years ago, and the Iron Dragon Fortress assault on the northern border with the Ok Empire seven years ago.

That was a classic battle in which the Lisia Alliance launched its first counterattack into the territory of the Ok Empire in nearly thirty years.

That war also fueled many rumors that the Bauhinia Flower Earl was likely to be promoted to marquis.

In the Lisia Alliance, apart from the nominal leader—the Grand Duke—the Marquis was actually the pinnacle of noble titles.

The story of Bauhinia Flower Earl was all learned by Saine after entering the Bauhinia Territory.

Whether it's the local commoners or passing merchants and travelers, everyone seems to have high praise for the Bauhinia Flower Earl.

The city that Saine entered at this moment was called Grant City.

This is a city name that Saine finds familiar, and the city has a population of nearly 300,000.

If we add to that the vast territory and the many other cities under the jurisdiction of Bauhinia Flower Earl, it is enough to show just how much power this Earl, who is renowned within the alliance, wields.

The bustling and vibrant city before him gave Saine, who had just arrived, a sense of unreality.

As he stepped out of the carriage, removed the hood of his black robe, and wanted to take a closer look at the city, he...

On the city wall, a guard captain on duty was taken aback.

He hurriedly ran to Saine and knelt down, respectfully addressing him, "Your Excellency, Earl!"
