It was dusk, and the Lilith Hut Magus Academy's huge ship was sailing on the waves caused by the sea breeze.
On the deck, there were no less than two to three hundred sorcerer-apprentices shouting excitedly, pointing at a giant ocean ship that was approaching from three hundred meters away.
"Look, it's really pirates. This is the first time I've seen pirates."
"The pirates on the other side are too timid. Why aren't they coming over?"
The sorcerer-apprentices discussed among themselves, seemingly unconcerned. Even the sailors looked calm and collected.
It was no wonder that these people had no fear of the legendary pirates. As the ocean ship of the Lilith Hut Magus Academy, the more than 50 sailors were all standard knights. In addition, there was a sailor leader and Wizard Dira's servant, Baron. Both of them had the strength of legendary knights.
In this way, ordinary pirate ships were nothing in front of the Wizard Academy's ship.
Even if some large pirate ships came to plunder, as long as Wizard Dira personally appeared, the pirates would not dare to board the ship even if they had ten thousand guts.
Grimm looked at the pirate ship in the distance.
The pirate ship was slightly smaller, only about 70 to 80 meters long. However, the ship's railings, masts, and railings were full of people. At a rough glance, there seemed to be at least a few hundred people.
These pirates were all men, dressed in rags. Many of them were missing an arm, a leg, or a single eye. Each of them held a dagger, a bow and arrow, and a hawser as they roared. They all seemed to be overly excited, as though they had an inexhaustible amount of energy.
As for why there were no women on the pirate ship?
This was because the pirates firmly believed that women would bring misfortune to the pirate ship. They would attract powerful sea monsters to overturn the ship, and the evil sirens would eat their flesh, leaving only their bones.
All the pirates of the sea firmly believed in this.
However, Grimm realized that the pirate ship did not immediately approach the wizard ship. The reason was very simple. The pirate captain had discovered the abnormality of the target ship through his telescopes.
On the ship … were there children cheering excitedly?
Suddenly, this pirate leader who had many years of sailing experience seemed to have thought of something. His expression changed drastically in an instant, and a layer of cold sweat covered his forehead. His only remaining eye revealed a deep fear as he roared at the pirate at the helm beside him, "Turn around, quick, turn around immediately!"
The change in the pirate leader seemed to have frightened the people around him. Even the monkey on his shoulder was startled. With a squeak, it left the pirate captain and jumped onto the railing.
As for the pirate at the helm, he was already scared silly. He stammered, "Turn around?"
It could be seen that this pirate captain's prestige was very high.
The metal hook directly pushed the pirate at the helm away. The pirate leader didn't explain at all. His remaining arm frantically turned the helm. The pirate ship carried hundreds of dumbfounded pirates and fled.
The other side.
On the ship of Lilith's Witch Academy, the door to the distinguished wizard Dira's room suddenly opened. A boy and a girl walked out curiously.
The people on the deck couldn't believe their eyes when they saw two children about their age walking out of the wizard's room.
For a moment, the sorcerer-apprentices on the deck were discussing among themselves.
"Who are these two fellows? How can they not live in the cabin? The moldy smell and mushroom soup these days make me want to puke!"
"Who knows? Are they the descendants of a wizard?"
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know. That day on the deck, the great wizard said that these two are the once-in-a-century geniuses of the Wizard Academy. We came early and heard it. Wizard Dira said …"
The people on the deck were discussing and secretly pointing at the two children who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
However, these two children didn't seem to care at all. Their arrogant expressions were just like Chris's in Bi Seer City, which made people feel uncomfortable.
The girl was wearing a white dress. She had long golden hair and a pair of amber blue eyes. She looked innocent and pure. She had a charming smile on the corner of her mouth. She looked like a little princess.
However, from the disdain in the depths of her eyes when she glanced at the people on the deck, it could be seen that she was not as innocent as she looked.
As for the other boy, he was just playing with the white mouse in his hand, completely ignoring the people on the deck. It was as if the mouse in his hand was much more important than all the people on the deck.
If one had to use a word to describe it, it would be disdain.
"Brother Kyrie, look, those pirates are running away. It's so boring."
The girl said coquettishly. At the same time, she shook her long golden hair, letting the sea breeze blow it away naturally.
As for the boy playing with the white mouse in his hand, he didn't even raise his head. He curled his lips and said, "I told you, there are no pirates on the sea who dare to hijack a ship of the Wizard Academy. You didn't listen and just came out to have a look. The deck is so stinky. Let's go back."
"Well, it's just too boring …"
The girl and the boy ignored the angry expressions of the people and went into the room that only wizards were qualified to live in as if nothing had happened.
On the deck, except for the sailors who had already gotten used to it, the sorcerer-apprentices on the deck were already in an uproar. Angry roars rose one after another, and they were extremely unhappy.
After all, who were they?
In the eyes of the children on the deck, they were Sorcerer-Apprentices selected from thousands of people. They were the elites of mankind. They were the ones who would become a great Sorcerer in the future. Naturally, they had their own pride. These two fellows were just one of them. What was there to be arrogant about?
And they said it was stinky on the deck …
So how did they survive these days living in a musty cabin?
In many people's eyes, these two guys only had some background in the Wizard Continent, or had some relationship with Wizard Dira. They were just using their connections to intimidate others.
Everyone, including Grimm, was unhappy with these two guys.
No matter how displeased they were, no one dared to question Wizard Dira. Just like that, this pirate storm came to an end.
Three days after the pirate storm, Grimm was memorizing the "Scent Atlas" in his cabin when he suddenly heard someone knocking on his door. He shook his head. He thought it was Robinson again. These days, he was the only one who would come to Grimm's cabin for a stroll.
However, when Grimm opened the door, he found it was the brother and sister, Chris and Anna York.
Although a little surprised, Grimm still expressed his welcome and let the two into the room.
After thinking for a while, Grimm took out the fruit juice that he had been reluctant to drink these days to serve them.
The fruit juice was stored using the method of nobles, and it would not go bad for two months.
It could be seen that after the fight in the cabin, Chris was no longer as arrogant. He had become a lot more mature.
Although Anna York was still a little shy, she took the initiative to speak this time.
"Brother Grimm, thank you for helping us that time. My brother and I are very grateful."
Her voice was a little soft. Even if it was a girl who said such cowardly words, it was still very embarrassing.
"Uh … You don't have to worry about this kind of thing."
Grimm replied.
To be honest, under those circumstances, although he was very unhappy with Chris, as a member of the same camp, he had to do something. At least, it was necessary for Grimm to do so.
In the end, it was Lafite who played a decisive role.
"No, no, we are really grateful, brother Grimm. It's true."
Anna York hurriedly added. Then, as if she felt that she was not being serious enough, she tried to make herself look more serious. She carefully took out two stones from her clothes and handed them to Grimm.
"This is a treasure that my brother and I got by accident when we were young. Later on, we found out that it was a magic stone, a currency used among wizards. My brother and I have wasted some over the years, and we still have a few left. So … These two magic stones are for you to express our gratitude. "
Grimm looked at the siblings in shock. They actually had a currency used among wizards?
This was not some gold or silver coin. Most people would not even see it. Even Grimm had never heard of such a thing before.
He did not expect the siblings to already have such a precious thing. No wonder Chris was so arrogant. They had such a high-class thing with them.
And Wayde, the stone he bribed Wizard Apollo with back then was a magic stone.
…
After a while, Chris and Anna York stood up and said their goodbyes.
During this time, it was Anna who had been talking to Grimm. Chris did not say a word. It seemed that what happened that day was a big blow to him. He was a little embarrassed when facing Grimm.
However, when the siblings were about to leave, Chris suddenly patted Grimm's shoulder and said in a serious tone, "I was wrong before."
Then, he left without looking back.
Grimm nodded politely and did not say anything.
After the siblings left, Grimm continued to sit in front of the table. However, there were two thumb-sized stones on the table. They were the legendary magic stones.
Grimm could not help but pick up the two magic stones and carefully study them. After all, Grimm knew that a magic stone was a very precious treasure for a wizard's apprentice.
