After a few days of sailing, we arrived in the Sea Serpent Point city. The journey is pleasant and boring. We cannot visit my pocket dinsion because of the guest coming with us. Because of that, most of the ti, we are fishing and sparring with each other. Lucky for us, Vida, the princess, is more than willing to spar with us.
There is also another kind of entertainnt of Jullian flustered by Vida’s constant teasing. After the third day of sailing, Jullian started to warm up to Vida. The princess is a cheerful and bright person. You cannot stay mad at her.
Sotis, she is a little bit too energetic, but she understands when the other person does not want to be energetic and llow out a bit. She is also a kind person who likes to help others. One of the sailors got hurt after fishing out a giant fish with a hard and sharp fin. He gets cut from the fish fin, and she quickly cos to him to put an ointnt to treat the cut.
She is also smart and willing to learn. She might not be the brightest star, but she is a star nonetheless. She can easily absorb most of the things I teach her and put them into action. It’s just like how she learns a couple of low-level healing spells from the book from the Second Life ga.
Other than healing spells, she also learns how to make a low-level healing potion, a common cold curing potion, and energizing potions.
All in all, she is a great student and companion to have on our journey. She learns fast and does not complain when the task is too hard for her but instead asks how to do it. Ten out of ten would teach her again.
I snap from my thoughts when we get near the dock, and I can see a lot of people waiting for us on the land. It takes a few minutes to dock properly, but after we are docked, the crew puts on a long, thick plank for us to use.
As we leave the ship, I can see Lord Hayur, the Lord of Sea Serpent Point City, is among the people who are waiting for us on the ground. He walks forward and greets us with a large smile.
"Welco back, Princess! Grandmaster! Lady Cunningham and Sir Jullian and Sir Jonathan!"
Lord Hayur greets us one by one. I shake his hand, and he looks at Vida and the group of diplomats behind us.
"I’m sorry if this sounds rude, but can I ask who these people are?"
I smile a little and step aside to let Vida walk forward.
"Lord Hayur, let introduce you to Princess Verlagan. She is the little sister of the King of Verlagan Kingdom. Vida, this is Lord Hayur, the Lord of Sea Serpent Point City."
Vida walks forward and gives a lady bow. Lord Hayur quickly bows and says.
"It is nice to et you, princess. My na is Adrian Giruld Hayur. However, please call Adrian if you like it."
Vida smiles at him and says,
"I will be in your care, Lord Hayur."
"Of course, Princess. I make sure you enjoy your stay in my city."
Vida smiles and steps back. Lord Hayur looks at and says,
"Please follow , Grandmaster. I have already prepared a carriage for all of us."
I nod and say.
"Let’s go."
"Please follow ."
Lord Hayur takes us a hundred ters away from the dock, and I can see four carriages already waiting for us. Jonathan, Jullian, and Jonathan take the second carriage, while Silva, Hilda, Lord Hayur, Vida, and I take the bigger carriage on the front. The diplomats take the third and fourth carriages.
After getting inside the carriage, Lord Hayur looks at us and says,
"I don’t want to sound rude, but can I ask why Princess Verlagan ca here? I’m happy to accommodate you, princess, but it is rare for so noble from the Western Continent to co to this part of the continent. We are too different from the Western Continent in tradition and way of life, right?"
Vida smiles at Lord Hayur and says,
"I don’t mind answering your question, Lord Hayur. The reason why we co here is because we want to discuss an alliance between our three kingdoms."
"Three kingdoms, huh? That ans you will also go to the Gipan Kingdom, huh?"
"That is correct. Grandmaster Gwyndolin has done a lot for our kingdom. He takes care of many monsters that are roaming on our land, heals our people, and even heals my nephew from an incurable disease that many healers and priests in our kingdom cannot cure. Not making an alliance after seeing how he has been helping us is a foolish decision."
Lord Hayur looks at in shock, and I can only nod my head while Hilda and Silva giggle at my expression.
"Yes. We have been adventuring around Verlagan city and helping so of their cities where a monster wave is coming."
Lord Hayur nods in understanding and smiles at .
"As expected from the Grandmaster of dicine of the Gipan Kingdom. You are still the kind person who helps our kingdom in crisis. You are still the man who likes to play with children when they are asking you to play with them, not knowing your title and authority. You are just the kind man I have t before."
Urgh. I can feel my face heat up and hear Silva and Hilda laughing now. Oi! Vida! You are supposed to be on my side! Why are you laughing?! Vida wipes the tears from her eyes and says.
"He does! He likes to play with my nephew and niece every ti they ask him. They have him wrapped around their little fingers. Also, the children in Mantah City, our capital, call him Kind Brother. He visits the local orphanage to play with the children, and they welco him with open arms."
I can only sigh and look at Lord Hayur, who is smiling from ear to ear.
"Anyway! How is the situation in the South? Has sothing happened? Is there anything I should know?"
Lord Hayur thinks for a few seconds before saying.
"Well... There is nothing usual. A small wave of monsters cos to attack the nearby village occasionally, but our soldiers can defeat them easily. After seeing the people from the Cunningham Army fight, Lady Freyja decided to increase the training and teach them so formation. They beco a formidable force against monsters and bandits."
I nod my head and say.
"Is there any news from my territory? From Cunningham County."
"Nothing bad or anything, Grandmaster. However, there is the news that your little sister is now known as Little Saint. She wants to be you and learn how to cast healing spells and how to make potions. The people from the church and healer guild are grumbling to your king about her learning healing magic, not from them. However, your king put his foot down and make sure no one can harass your little sister from practicing healing spells and how to make potions."
Good. Because if they decide to do sothing stupid to my little sister, I will destroy the capital city to the ground.

"Gwyn has returned?"
I ask the man in front of and see him nodding his head.
"The other agents in the Luzia Kingdom have inford us that Grandmaster Gwyndolin has arrived in Sea Serpent Point city, my lady. They are now staying inside Lord Hayur’s castle."
"I see."
That is good news. With the prince coming anyti now, I need soone who I can rely upon. I have a heart attack when I hear the news of Gwyn deciding to go to the Western Continent. I thought they were running away after knowing the truth of the tiline, but I cald down after knowing they were just having a vacation.
I’m a little bit jealous of them, but I cannot do that because I’m too busy trying to survive, collecting magical items, recruiting so important characters, and increasing my wealth. All of this increases my chance of survival in case the main tiline is still happening.
"I see. Anything else?"
"Yes. A group of diplomats cos to the Luzia Kingdom."
"Oh? Where are they from?"
Jonathan leans over and says. Now, he looks serious, and his previous lazy expression is gone.
"They are coming from the Verlagan Kingdom of the Western Continent. There are around ten diplomats coming, and the agents in the Luzia Kingdom know that they will co to the Gipan Kingdom as well."
Jonathan nods his head and says.
"I see. That ans they want to join the alliance between the Luzia and Gipan Kingdom, huh?"
The spy in front of us nods his head and says.
"Yes, my lord. The agent in the Luzia Kingdom also says the sa."
I nod and say.
"Who is the one leading this group?"
"Princess Vida Verlagan"
"What?!"
