Kerry didn't leave the exchange to check what magic the Queen possessed.

Instead, he continued to review related content. Fortunately, one shop sold Griffons in bulk, and it came with a detailed taming manual.

Compared to mid-tier magical planes, Griffons in lower-tier planes were much easier to raise. Here, "easier to raise" meant simpler methods, not that they were genuinely easy to raise.

The simplest feeding method for Griffons, which could be called magical beasts, was to feed them magic crystals. This could maximize their magical energy and make them stronger. Griffons tamed by feeding them magic crystals only needed supplemental meat to grow healthily.

The next best method was large amounts of meat. The meat of legendary creatures was best. Hippogriffs, Pegasi, and Centaurs were Griffons' favorites. Of course, if your abilities were limited, you could just feed them any meat you could find.

There were a bunch of other things, like bathing every day, the best time for taming, and so on. Kerry was too lazy to read them. As long as they didn't starve for now, that was enough. He'd look for a groomer in the city who knew how to raise Griffons later. Kerry didn't have time to bathe the Griffon every day.

Exiting the exchange, Kerry ran to the kitchen and grabbed a large fish. "Hey, Queen, I brought you something to eat. Look, what a plump Sea Kingfish."

He directly threw the large fish in front of the Queen. Kerry expected to see the fierce Griffon crush and swallow the at least 40-pound fish in two or three bites. However, he found that the Queen sniffed it before pecking at it leisurely.

The Queen looked very listless and didn't have much of an appetite. Kerry knew that just feeding her might not keep the Queen alive until the next market day. He really needed to find a groomer quickly.

After eating the fish, the Queen seemed a little more energetic. She flapped her wings vigorously, clearly wanting to fly, but her ankles were chained, so she reluctantly lay back down.

Kerry had never raised a Griffon before and was afraid it might harm the people in the castle, so he had always kept it chained. Of course, this was when Kerry was away from the Griffon. Kerry had the Beast Ring, so the Griffon had to obey him. Therefore, as long as Kerry was by the Griffon's side, it was fine even without a chain.

"Mr. Carson, Mr. Carson, come here and help me open this annoying chain." Kerry saw the Griffon wanting to fly and loudly called for Butler Carson to come and unlock it.

Carson soon arrived at the stable with the key. Unfortunately, such a large beast scared Carson quite a bit. In the end, Kerry personally unlocked the iron chain for the Queen.

With a whoosh, after the chain was unlocked, the Queen flapped her wings wildly, pushed off with her feet, and flew up. With the Beast Ring in hand, Kerry wasn't afraid of it running away. The Beast Ring could summon it back at any time, just like a pager.

"Oh, right, Young Master. Today seems to be Frank's discharge day. I plan to go to Little Nose Bay Port City." Carson and Frank were old acquaintances, and he wanted to pick him up after his discharge.

"Haha, coincidentally, I also want to find a Griffon groomer. I'll go pick him up. Tell the fishermen that from now on, any fish they can't sell for a good price, they should sell to us. The Griffon seems to like fish." How could picking up a master-level old man be treated casually? Kerry looked at the Griffon flying around the island and suddenly had an idea.

Griffon Knights. Young ladies in the royal capital had read too many knight novels, like Dragon Knights and Griffon Knights. They were all characteristics of rich and handsome men, and they had no resistance to them.

I wonder if picking up Frank from the hospital on a Griffon would make him smell my kingly aura?

He used the Beast Ring to call the Queen over. Carson, who was preparing to leave to receive the order, was so nervous he was sweating. Did the Young Master intend to...?

Kerry quickly confirmed Butler Carson's guess. He flipped over and mounted the Queen's back. He nodded slightly to Carson and then commanded the Queen through the magic ring to fly towards Little Nose Bay Port City.

"Oh, no, Young Master, wait! This is a sick Griffon, you might fall into the sea..." Kerry heard Carson's words, but experiencing independent flight for the first time, he selectively ignored Butler Carson's advice and flew away.

An adult Griffon from a mid-tier plane could carry a load equivalent to its own weight for about an hour. Kerry's weight was not even a fraction of the Queen's. Little Nose Bay Port City and South Australia Island were about an hour's boat ride apart. Kerry was quite confident about this voyage.

Blue sky, white clouds, vast sea. Flying over the sea between South Australia Island and Little Nose Bay Port City, Kerry suddenly felt a surge of heroic spirit that he had to express. "Ha~haha~~"

As a result, on the sea, a Griffon carrying a shouting fool quickly passed a jellyfish-fishing boat. The people on the boat were whispering to each other. Some said the Griffon had caught a person and was eating him, and that person was calling for help. Others said Griffon Knights always shouted like this when they went on campaigns.

It was like the Cossack cavalry in the north shouting "Ura."

The strong wind buffeted Kerry's face. Fortunately, he was a level 1 warrior and could circulate his Battle Qi to slightly enhance his resistance. It was estimated that ordinary people would not be able to experience the feeling of being a Griffon Knight.

Frank had a dream-like experience over the past half month. Before, he guarded the castle on the island. Although no one managed him, there was nothing to enjoy.

This time, because he tripped while helping the Young Master carry luggage, he experienced the feeling of being a master.

If it weren't for the fact that his injuries had healed a week ago, he really couldn't drag it out any longer.

Frank wanted to continue recuperating. Frank felt that in another month, he could find a partner. The nurse seemed to have some interest in him.

The melancholic Frank took out the wine bottle he was holding and took a big swig, looking like he was trying to cut the water with a knife only to have it flow more, raising his cup to drown his sorrows only to find them deeper.

It only took about an hour by boat. This time, Kerry arrived at Little Nose Bay Port City on the Griffon in less than 20 minutes. The Griffon was very fast.

Kerry had always been afraid that he would fall off accidentally. It seemed that before his strength became even greater, he couldn't be a Griffon Knight. At most, he could be a Griffon courier, and he himself would be the courier.

Arriving above the sanatorium, Kerry immediately spotted Frank, who had already left the sanatorium and was standing on the cliff edge looking out at the sea.

What a perfect image of a lonely master, a peerless expert who had experienced the vicissitudes of life (in reality, Frank was reminiscing about his recuperation period).

Kerry once again strengthened his belief that Frank was a hidden old grandpa.

"Alas, alcohol is still the best. With it, all the troubles in the world disappear. If she saw me like this, she would probably scold me again, hehe."

Frank didn't notice Kerry, who was landing, but thought of how the nurse would catch him drinking secretly and then lecture him earnestly. He couldn't help but miss the happy life in the sanatorium again.

Should he have another work-related injury next time? Frank suddenly had a bold idea in his mind.

There will be one more chapter, which will be a bit late.
