If there really was a Flying Airship, then it would clearly be his best option.
Twenty minutes later.
Outside the Guest House in Yili Palace.
King Wild, along with Colin, stepped down from the carriage.
"Master Colin, we've arrived at the Guest House, your room is the sa one as last ti... As for your maid, Knight Hayden has already gone to the North City Gate to call for her, she should arrive shortly."
"Mm." Colin nodded slightly, indicating his understanding.
Wild paused, then added, "I don't know if you're free this evening, but I'd like to invite you to dine with us."
At this point, he stopped again and supplented, "Connie will also be joining us for dinner."
Connie, who was standing beside them, first looked puzzled, then her heart skipped a beat, she smoothed her hair, looking sowhat embarrassed.
She only admired Colin and had no other intentions.
"There's no need." Colin shook his head to decline.
With such ti, it would be better to properly sort out the items he had obtained today from Yili and Anthony.
Wild kept a calm expression and nodded, not saying anything more.
His words were rely a polite gesture.
"Master Colin, then I will take my leave. When the rchant convoy arrives tomorrow, I will have soone inform you."
After speaking, he turned his head to the stunned Connie and softly signaled, "Quickly say goodbye to Master Colin."
Connie snapped back to reality and said, "Goodbye, Master Colin."
"Goodbye."
Wild smiled, bowed again to Colin, and then turned with Connie to board the carriage.
Click—
The carriage door closed, blocking the outside view, and Wild's smile gradually disappeared, turning cold.
Gee up!
The coachman cracked his whip.
Clip-clop, clip-clop—
The luxurious carriage sped away on the neat cobblestone road, leaving the Guest House far behind.
After a while, they ca to an intersection.
Inside the carriage, Wild's worried and icy expression softened slightly, he lifted the curtain, and spoke to the coachman in front,
"Detour to the Wizard Palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The coachman pulled the reins, steering left to the palace where Ivan and Anthony had lived.
Dropping the dark gold curtain, Wild sighed softly.
Although the theater incident had been resolved, Yili Kingdom's two Sacrificial Wizards, Ivan and Anthony, were both dead...
And if nothing unexpected happened, Colin would leave tomorrow.
If Yili Kingdom encountered another strange incident after his departure,
Then he could only hope for paid assistance from nearby Schools, like the other weaker neighboring kingdoms.
However, the assistance of Schools was unreliable, whether in terms of ti, effectiveness, or other aspects, it wasn't as convenient and effective as having his own Sacrificial Wizard.
Just the ti it took was a difficult issue to address.
If faced with a strange incident,
Yili Kingdom would first need to convey the ssage of the incident to a School...
If sent to the nearest School and the ssenger rode a Demon Beast hybrid horse bred by the Royal Family, it would take at least twenty days one way.
Thus, a round trip would take at least forty days, and that's assuming the School imdiately sent soone.
Usually, Schools could not dispatch soone right away, and so the whole process could take at least two months...
Of course, there were other ways to inform the Schools, but they would still take at least half a month at a minimum.
Half a month... many strange incidents could undergo significant changes in even an hour, let alone half a month.
Wild couldn't help but sigh once again.
He couldn't claim he didn't resent Colin.
But... that was all he could afford, resentnt; holding a grudge was useless... and he didn't dare to.
So ti passed.
The carriage slowed down, arriving at the Wizard Palace.
Wild got out of the carriage.
He was here to properly secure the items left by Ivan and Anthony for future use.
Approaching the palace gate, Hayden took a step forward and knocked vigorously on the door.
Before long, a shapely female knight opened the door.
This was the sa female knight who had opened the door for them earlier in the day.
Wild didn't rember her na... after all, she was rely one of Anthony's playthings.
"Your Majesty, the King." The female knight greeted calmly, bowing slightly as usual, and then was about to refuse the King's visit.
"Ivan and Lord Anthony..."
Wild was anxious and did not wish to engage in more conversation, turning to Hayden and signaling slightly.
Understanding the cue, Hayden stepped forward, forcefully moving the female knight aside to clear the doorway.
"You?!" The female knight looked shocked and angry, glaring at Hayden. Her face, which had a certain beauty, was now distorted with rage.
She instinctively wanted to strike back, but soon ca to her senses and stopped herself.
Although she was a Knight just like Hayden, she was rely a Basic Level Knight who had been artificially enhanced with witchcraft, while Hayden was a battle-hardened Great Knight... They were not comparable.
She frowned, looking away from Hayden and turning to Wild, "Your Majesty Wild, you're just going to watch your Knight treat this way... What do you think Lord Anthony would think if he knew?"
Wild frowned, growing increasingly impatient.
These won always thought that by having a Wizard as support, they could do as they please, but in reality, everyone knew they were nothing more than playthings.
If there was a real conflict, Anthony would never fall out with him over such a trifle...
