A Real Person

As Sylph departed in her airship, Saine was unaware that there was someone he knew on another airship high above him in the sky. →

Sylph, perched on the deck of the airship, watched with interest as Saine and Lina, who were traveling with her below, observed her.

Sylph had never met Lina before, but she was quite familiar with Saine.

After examining him several more times, Sylph finally confirmed that the other person was indeed her junior brother, Saine.

"I heard that Saine missed the Knight Continent Trial because he was traveling in the Wizard World."

"But now that she's here, and with a female Mage by her side, tsk tsk..." Sylph stared at Lina for a few moments, seemingly trying to get a clear look at her.

"I've long heard that Junior Brother Saine is quite the ladies' man. During the Poison Fire Green Flame World War, he got very close to a female Mage from the Azure Source Holy Tower."

"How does he still have the energy for this besides studying magic? How exactly did he delve so deeply into the Arcane Truth of magic?"

"And in my memory, my junior brother is very introverted and withdrawn. Why is he so popular with women?" Sylph couldn't help but wonder.

For the time being, no one could answer Sylph's questions.

It's estimated that Sylph will have to ask Saine herself sometime in the future to find out.

The power systems on the wings of the airship emitted two white jets of air, propelling the airship eastward toward the Wizard World.

Given the geographical distance between the Western Islands and the Azure Flame Holy Tower, even with an airship, it would take Sylph more than half a year to return.

In the sky, a floating ship drifted further and further away, without attracting any attention from Saine and Lina.

Lina, however, looked up at it with a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong?" Saine asked from beside him.

Lina shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I just felt like someone was watching me."

Upon hearing this, Saine's expression turned slightly serious, and he said, "Has someone recognized your identity as Black Magician?"

"Then let's leave here quickly and try to avoid large cities in the future."

"This isn't the Black Domain, so it's always good to be careful," Saine said.

"Okay." Lina nodded obediently.

Unlike when he was a child, when Saine had to listen to Lina.

These days, Lina mostly listens to Saine. It's not because Saine is stronger than her, but because Lina is also a woman, and sometimes she needs a strong chest to lean on.

The two quickly left the area, and during their subsequent journey to the northern part of the Western Islands, Saine and Lina mostly traveled through small and medium-sized cities.

Perhaps because they had spent more than twenty years in the Knight Continent Trial Zone experimenting and battling, Saine and Lina had rarely conducted any in-depth Experimental Research in the past year.

The two of them traveled through the Western Islands like ordinary travelers.

The Western Islands consist of thousands, even tens of thousands of islands, each of which is comparable in size to a small continent. →

Therefore, the customs, traditions, and landscapes within the Western Islands are quite different.

Traveling here, passing through islands and countries, you experience different customs and cultures.

It was only at this point that Saine began to truly see the underbelly of the Wizard World from a human perspective.

In the past, Saine had traversed half of the Wizard World, traveling from the Green Source Land to the Western Islands.

But looking back at the regions he passed through on his way to the Western Islands, it seems that Saine didn't really observe what the places were like, let alone actively experience life like an ordinary person.

Level-1 Magician Irene said that Saine was a quiet, reserved person who had never even attended a noble ball.

Even his first aristocratic dance step was taught to him by Irene herself.

Now, with Lina by his side, Saine is finally beginning to enjoy life and this magnificent world like a real person, instead of being a mere Experimental Research machine as before.

On their journey back to the Western Islands, Saine and Lina dressed up as nobles on more than one occasion to attend balls held by nobles in some of the smaller cities they passed through.

Just like Irene had done, the first aristocratic dance step that Lina learned was taught to her by Saine.

As the two danced gracefully on the pristine white marble floors of the luxurious aristocratic castle, Saine and Lina had only each other in their eyes.

Unforgettable times are always too short.

Even though Saine slowed down in the second half of the journey, he and Lina still arrived in the northern part of the Western Islands after two years.

Due to the unique geographical environment of the Western Islands, Saine and Lina have spent more than half of the past two years on ships at sea.

For hundreds of evenings, the two watched the sunset sink into the sea, and at night, they looked up to gaze at the starry sky.

The stars are very bright at night in the Wizard World because there are numerous Fire Element planes in the Surrounding Starfield the Wizard Civilization.

Every hundred years, these planes contribute a large amount of energy crystals and other mineral resources to the Wizard Civilization.

Gazing at the starry sky, Lina suddenly asked, "Do you think there might be a future dimension that belongs only to us?"

In response to Lina's question, Saine replied confidently, "It definitely will!"

"I will give that dimension as a gift to commemorate our relationship!" Saine said to Lina with deep emotion.

Lina leaned on Saine's shoulder with a look of relief and joy on her face, gazing at the starry sky with him.

Besides Truth, emotions should also be eternal.

After leaving the Sethos Port, Saine and Lina entered the northern part of the Western Islands, the territory of the Black Magician of the Black Domain.

Normally, this area still belongs to the central region of the Western Islands, and the nearby Holy Tower and Knights' Hall strictly prohibit Black Domain Black Magician from crossing the border.

However, due to the once-in-a-millennium Knight Continent Trial, the Near-Sea was only partially opened for a hundred years.

For the past century, Black Magician and black Knight from the Black Domain have been able to communicate and trade in this Public Sea Domain.

Many daring Holy Tower Magician and registered Knight of the Knights' Hall dared to venture into Public Sea Domain at this time to trade with those Black Magician and dark Knight.

Self-interest blinds people's hearts.

Few people can remain rational in the face of returns as high as 300%.

As a result, every thousand years, the gray transactions in this Public Sea Domain gradually become public.

The Black Magician and black Knight of the Black Domain are usually very disciplined at this time, and there is almost no situation of black people eating black people.

If there are indeed some black Knight and Black Magician who have committed misdeeds, there's no need for the Holy Tower and Knights' Hall throughout the Western Islands to deal with them.

Only those Great Black Magician and dark Knight of level three or above would take the initiative to clean up the scum.

Compared to the meager immediate gains, those higher-ranking Black Knight and Black Magician valued this once-in-a-millennium trading platform even more.

Without this Semi-Public trading market that has lasted for nearly a century, the resource acquisition situation for the Black Magician of the Black Domain would have become even more difficult.

No wonder many Knight and Mage in the Western Islands do not have much ill will towards the Black Domain.

Even rabbits don't eat the grass near their burrows.

In terms of tolerance towards the Black Domain, among all regions and factions in the Wizard World, Saine's side the Western Islands are likely to show some leniency towards the Black Domain Knight and Black Magician.
