"...Is that so? Have they set off? Okay, I understand. The president is still in retreat. I'll go notify the lady imdiately."
Warm Fire City, "Heart Net" headquarters, a young man in a red magic robe was using his major in the "Heart Fire Series Magic" to communicate for the comrce association.
At the start of the Twin Fire War, the "Heart Net" was directly cut off by nearly fifty percent by the Magic Guild through so ans. The comrce association dared not use the remaining half, as they weren't sure if the guild had intentionally left it for them to use and then monitored it.
Now, with the war temporarily over, both sides have pulled back, and the Heart Net has been mostly repaired.
However, why the Heart Net was cut off and what magical thod the Magic Guild used to attack it remains an unsolved mystery.
Currently, the comrce association's counterasure is to select a group of family mbers with the highest attainnt in "Heart Fire Series Magic" to serve as ssengers. They aim to reduce the chances of being monitored by "adding a human factor" to ensure the security of important family information.
The young man before them is an advanced ssenger.
He had just received news that Falk and his party had set off.
After receiving the news, he planned to send it to the president's wife through the Heart Net, as he said himself, "The president is still in retreat, I'll go notify the lady imdiately."
But strangely, besides sending the information to the lady, he seed to intend to send the ssage elsewhere.
"Hmm?" The young man's expression changed suddenly, as he looked up to see not far away a female ssenger with a slight baby face and a dimple on one cheek was seemingly unintentionally looking towards him.
Their gazes t in mid-air.
The female ssenger smiled and said, "It's almost ti to change shifts, right? How about grabbing breakfast together and then going back to sleep?" They were night shift ssengers and could go back to sleep after the morning shift handover.
"Ah? Oh, oh, oh, sure, sure!"
The young man appropriately blushed and said sowhat "embarrassingly," "Then let finish this bit of work first."
As he spoke, he continued to send out the ssage intended for the president's wife.
Yet he discreetly deleted the second ssage copy that was to be sent elsewhere.
Seeing this, especially the young man's blushing, embarrassed act, the female ssenger couldn't help but have a flicker of doubt in her eyes.
Deep in her gaze, a trace of confusion flashed, as she thought to herself, "Am I overthinking it?"
...
...
The Fla Realm is vast.
Only after truly leaving the "Inner Sea Desert" and seeing and touching the world beyond the desert with his own eyes did Andrew increasingly gain an intuitive understanding of just how large the Fla Realm is!
In comparison, the Inner Sea Desert, which once seed vast to Andrew, is quite small in the grand scope of the Fla Realm. One might say the Inner Sea Desert is to the Fla Realm what the tiny Wildfire Town was to the Inner Sea Desert!
That day, it took only half a day to leave the Inner Sea Desert after departing from the eastern gate of Wildfire Territory.
In the following week, only half the journey to Warm Fire City was completed!
"So this... this is the true face of the Fla Realm?"
Along the way, Andrew passed through no fewer than twenty cities of various sizes.
The closer one gets to Warm Fire City, the larger and more prosperous the cities beco.
Admittedly, many scars and traces from the Twin Fire War can still be seen.
But overall, the magical civilization of the Fla Realm is far more advanced than Andrew had imagined!
It's not like what he thought, where most non-mage and non-professional civilians live as if in dieval Europe of his world before crossing over; it wasn't like that at all!
On the contrary, the power of magic has perated every aspect of life in this Fla Realm!
For instance, after leaving the Inner Sea Desert, the team imdiately abandoned the use of "fla horses" in favor of vehicles powered by magic power. These vehicles are unsuitable in the Inner Sea Desert environnt but are much more convenient and faster in most areas beyond the desert! Additionally, magic-powered lamps, various tools, and even airships... In short, the Fla Realm is nothing like the wild, backward land Andrew initially thought it was when he was in Wildfire Territory and the Inner Sea Desert.
Nevertheless, this Fla Realm has many issues.
After leaving the Inner Sea Desert, Andrew had thought the people outside the desert, at least in better living conditions, would have much better skin, right?
But that's not the case!
The skin of the people outside the desert is no better than that of the desert dwellers!
Andrew repeatedly heard, while resting in various cities, won chatting and complaining: "Ugh, another layer of skin peeled off my face recently; it's so annoying!" "Hey, hey, why does that woman's skin look so good?" "Good, my foot; it's all makeup! You should ask her husband what she really looks like after washing her face at night."
Hearing such conversations, Andrew couldn't help but be amazed at how certain issues remain the sa no matter where you are. The won in this otherworld, the aunts, older sisters, and young ladies, seed most concerned about their skin, and their various skincare thods were an eye-opener.
On the other hand, he thought: If I could use my Enchanting Finger and Water Magic to create a product that solves the skin issues faced by the won of this world, how much Fire Extinguishing Value could that achieve?!
The won of the Fla Realm complain about rough skin.
They also complain about the n's lack of physical ability.
Hmm, this... of course, it's also intelligence that Andrew overheard from the conversations of the aunties and big sisters of this Otherworld.
This Fla Realm, it lacks water.
What does water represent in the human body? Kidneys!
So simply put, the n of this Fla Realm generally have varying degrees of kidney water deficiency. It's no wonder their physical strength isn't great!
Andrew originally thought that only ordinary civilians would have such traits.
Later, he gradually discovered: professionals are the sa!
That day, the team reached a major city nad "Qi Lan," as usual, entered the city for rest after nightfall, and continued their journey the next morning. Andrew, as usual, took a small notebook after entering the city to observe, to record, to... eavesdrop.
What is the core key to business cooperation with the Warm Fire Comrce Association?
Isn't it the market demand of this Fla Realm!
In the eyes of the Warm Fire Comrce Association, there is the market demand that the association perceives. For example, the supply of drinking water, which is already a business of the association. Andrew, on the existing business, of course, must strive to do his part, to see what kind of help and change he can bring to the Warm Fire Comrce Association with his Water Magic.
Farr's Spring is a great start.
But at the sa ti, Andrew also wants to see with his own eyes, to listen with his own ears, to personally investigate the market demand of this world.
That's right, investigate!
This is a market survey!
We must first know what this world needs in order to more specifically apply his Water Magic to et these demands, right?
However, just as Andrew was holding a small notebook, ready to investigate, Leia stopped him: "Wait, wait a minute! Andrew, aren't you tired?"
"Not tired at all." Andrew laughed, "We are professionals, having only traveled a day, there's no reason to be tired—" The last bit of "right?" was left unsaid.
Then he saw the Crimson Knights in the team, each showing signs of fatigue.
Especially Havier, who could be said to be gasping for breath!
It seems that an entire day of travel fatigue is quite a consumption for professionals as well!
In the team, the only ones who showed no signs of fatigue were Andrew, Ivan, the Grand Mage-level Falk, and Barbara, who had once united water and fire with Andrew.
"This—" Andrew vaguely felt that he had grasped sothing.
He decided not to go out and investigate all over the city for now, but instead walked up to Havier and began to scrutinize from head to toe.
After scrutinizing for a while, he asked: "You tired? How tired? Very tired?"
Havier didn't answer, angrily stared at Andrew.
Although Andrew was purely out of an investigative and confirmatory purpose, in Havier's eyes, this was downright showing off and mockery!
In his mind, within the four types of Fire Elent professionals, our Crimson Knight group is considered to have the best physical ability and endurance. Fla Warriors are next. Warm Fire Mages co after that. While Earth Fire Mages have extrely strong explosive power, their endurance is extrely poor.
In fact, the only ones whose physical ability surpasses Crimson Knights should be the "Frost Guards" of the Royal Court, and Ivan, a Desert Hunter like him.
Even Frost Guards, in terms of physical ability, aren't much stronger than Crimson Knights.
The only ones truly crushing other professionals in terms of physical ability are the Desert Hunters.
So Havier had no issue with Ivan's good physical ability!
He just understood less and less about this Andrew guy before him!
This kid, just like his aunt, is just a Warm Fire Mage, isn't he?
His physical ability should be superior to Earth Fire Mages, but there should still be a big gap with combat professionals.
But the problem is... the problem is why does this kid's physical ability seem endless?!
At the beginning of the journey, Havier thought Andrew was just showing off, pretending not to be tired. He believed Andrew wouldn't last a few days and would eventually reveal his true form.
Now he understands: this Andrew, his physical ability is damn exceptionally good to an absurd level!
The question is, could such physical ability and endurance really belong to a Warm Fire Mage?!
This completely defies common sense!!
Seeing Havier's furious face, Andrew nodded and said: "Hmm, thank you for answering."
Then he turned to seriously interview those Crimson Knights who had experienced the Twin Flas War, unlike Havier, who were just all show and no substance.
"If these knights also feel that the continuous journey is quite a physical exhaustion for them, then..." Andrew's eyes began to shimr with a peculiar light.
