Return to South Australia Island

"There's no need to worry about that, I have my own ways," Kerry said. Kerry had a Golden Finger, and the Dimensional Exchange had a temporary warehouse that could store items for free for 10 hours. Once the Queen entered it, her own time would be frozen, making it safe and convenient.

"As for the herbs, isn't that a sanatorium up ahead? The herbs should be quite complete there. Let's go to the sanatorium to sell some," Kerry continued. After speaking, he put the Queen into the Dimensional Exchange's temporary warehouse and led Frank and Gandalf into the sanatorium where Frank had stayed for over half a month.

Gandalf was a little surprised. He had underestimated this new boss. Space Equipment was no longer something just anyone could possess, and Space Equipment that could store magical beasts for breeding was even more rare and precious.

Gandalf unconsciously raised Kerry's standing in his own mind.

Frank, who didn't expect to be back so soon, looked around as if searching for someone.

Kerry guessed he wanted to find some acquaintances to chat with, so he didn't pay much attention. He led Gandalf to find the leadership of the sanatorium.

Most of the leaders of this sanatorium were doctors. After explaining the situation, they quickly issued the medicine, with the prescription provided by Gandalf, of course.

Maria was an ordinary nursing assistant at this sanatorium. She had only been working there for a short time when she encountered an old lecherous patient who not only drank heavily but also constantly took liberties with her.

On their first meeting, he told Maria he had a precious beloved horse whose name was also Maria. What a coincidence.

Coincidence my foot. The guy spoke with a lecherous tone, always staring at her chest. His meaning was clear: he wanted to ride her.

What a hateful old rogue. If the leadership hadn't repeatedly assured her that the old lecher only had minor injuries and would be discharged soon, Maria would have quit long ago.

This morning, Maria, who personally sent the old rogue off, was in a great mood. For most of the morning, her steps were light, and everything she saw seemed cute, until she saw Frank, who had re-entered the sanatorium doors and was looking around.

"Oh, heavens, I just want to find a job to make a living," Maria said, scurrying away. She ran to the human resources department and requested to resign, fleeing from the persistent old lecher.

When Kerry and Gandalf, carrying the medicine bags, found Frank, he was listlessly drinking wine, exuding an air of melancholy.

Gandalf found it strange. How could such an ordinary person like to strike such a pose of a master?

Kerry, however, found it quite normal. Masters were just like that.

The group arrived at the Sailor and Princess Hotel. Little Emma was craning her neck, gazing out at the street. When she saw her teacher bringing two strangers into view, she scurried away and hid in her room.

"Why would Teacher bring strangers? Could it be that Teacher has had enough of this life on the run and plans to sell me for a good price?" Emma Watson, lost in thought about whether to accept her fate or resist to the end, hadn't made a decision when she heard her teacher knocking on the door.

"Little Emma, my dear granddaughter, we're moving," Gandalf's words at the door made Emma breathe a sigh of relief. Granddaughter was their cover identity, Emma's and Gandalf's. Since they were still using this identity, it meant their true identities hadn't been exposed. Those two strangers weren't here to capture her.

Opening the door, Kerry saw a very cute little girl, about thirteen or fourteen years old, in the process of development. She had a somewhat graceful and elegant bearing.

She was a beautiful embryo, with brown hair, a fair complexion, and large green eyes filled with the vibrant glow of youth. When she grew up, she would be a character capable of bringing ruin to a nation.

Emma also looked at Kerry. He was wearing a casual suit commonly worn by nobles, but without any flashy accessories, appearing clean and cheerful. Emma couldn't help but feel a bit curious. Why had Teacher suddenly brought a young noble?

"Hello, I heard from Gandalf that you have a granddaughter, and I thought it would be a cute little girl. I didn't expect you to be such a beautiful young lady. It's a pleasure to meet you," Kerry politely greeted Emma.

"Little Emma, this is Baron Kerry Raynor from South Australia Island. I am now Mr. Kerry's veterinarian and part-time keeper, specifically responsible for his Griffon. We are going to South Australia Island to settle down," Gandalf's concise words clarified most of Emma's doubts.

The young man's identity, the reason for moving, the owner of the Griffon.

"Okay, Grandpa. I'll pack up now." Emma was very well-behaved and obedient, which was related to her long period of fleeing. She replied "Hello" to Kerry and didn't say anything more.

The grandfather and granddaughter quickly packed their belongings. They didn't have much, just one bundle each. Fortunately, Carson had prepared many daily necessities, and there were quite a few blankets in the castle. Otherwise, these two would have been left to freeze.

With everything arranged, they had arrived with one person and one Griffon, but were returning with four people. Kerry boarded a merchant ship at a pier in Little Nose Bay Port City heading south to the Jili Merchant Alliance. He had already negotiated with the ship owner to stop at South Australia Island midway to drop them off.

The journey was smooth, and Kerry soon returned to the castle. He prepared a servant's room for Emma and Gandalf each. The castle no longer felt as desolate as before.

Mrs. Wesley specially prepared many dishes to celebrate the addition of new members to the castle.

The main dish was fish steak. Commoners rarely ate this kind of food, but Kerry was a little surprised that the grandfather and granddaughter had such good manners. Even when presented with such a rare delicacy, their expressions remained calm, without any undue surprise.

To be honest, although Little Emma didn't eat fish steak often before, for her, it was just an ordinary dish. Her father was an imperial marquis before he was imprisoned, and some grand dukes of the kingdom had to curry favor with him.

"Alright, young master. Even though you've found a veterinarian and a keeper, I still want to emphasize your tendency to spend money carelessly. I hope you can be thrifty. We're just starting to get things going, and all money must be spent on what's most important. For example, the security situation within the territory is also a pressing issue. Yesterday, a fisherman got into a fight with a local farmer, nearly causing a mob incident..."

After dinner, Kerry, who had intended to return to his room to rest, was called by Butler Carson. Just like when Kerry was a child, Carson began to lecture him incessantly until Kerry yawned for the third time.

"I know. Tomorrow, I'll select a few honest and upright individuals from the populace to be city guards," Kerry said. He didn't care if Carson knew what city guards were. Being sleepy, Kerry finished speaking and returned to his room to sleep soundly.

In his previous life, Kerry wouldn't sleep without scrolling through his phone until the early hours. After arriving on this island with no nightlife, he felt sleepy by 9 PM.

The next day, news spread from the South Australia Island castle that the territory was recruiting city guards. Their main duties would be to maintain the healthy operation of the city and serve as auxiliary security. They would also temporarily act as police in cases of fights and brawls, and stand guard at the northern and southern piers to maintain order when there was nothing else to do.

Many young men on South Australia Island were eager to try. Life on the island was very boring, and a job with multiple responsibilities like this was quite interesting, plus it could supplement their household income.
