The moment the World Conqueror arrived at the port of the city, the whole city was in an uproar, because a huge sea monster had arrived at the port, scaring the entire port into a panic. Marina released the giant squid Koukou at the port and let her return to the sea. Along the way, if it were not for the giant squid Koukou, Marina would not have been able to complete such a feat.
"Go, the sea is your home!"
"Thank you, Koukou!"
Everyone stood on the ship and waved at Koukou. After sailing together for several years, many sailors had developed feelings for this giant monster that had protected them. Some sailors even began to wipe away tears as they watched Koukou's huge figure slowly disappear into the sea.
The story of Marina Bossa and her companions traveling around the world on a ship called the Legendary Adventurer had spread throughout the entire city of Terecius. The sailors in the taverns kept talking about their legendary adventure, the various monsters and dangers they had encountered along the way, the magnificent Swirl Continent, the Mermaid Kingdom, and the beautiful Yala Continent.
Everyone knew that a woman named Marina Bossa had crossed the dangerous sea and completed the feat of crossing three continents at once. For ordinary people, the Alen Continent was already the whole world. Only then did everyone know that there was such a magical continent and life outside the world.
The gems and black pearls that the sailors had brought back from the Swirl Continent, various handicrafts and works of art from the Yala Continent, as well as elven zithers and beautiful elven longswords and longbows, were all very popular, attracting a large number of merchants and nobles in Teplius. Everyone became rich overnight, and they were even received by the Prime Minister of the Sean City-State Alliance and awarded with the title of Knight.
This made their experience even more legendary. Every city that they passed through, they would tell their story, and they were treated with enthusiasm. This was especially true for Old Man Garnister, who was very proud of himself. This was the most glorious moment of his life.
Even the children on the streets were singing about their story, telling the story of the beautiful mermaids, the giant squid Koukou, and the various children of the sea. They seemed to have boarded the great Legendary Adventurer and followed the great captain Marina Bossa on a great journey around the world.
"Come on, monster! I am the captain of the great Legendary Adventurer! I am fearless! "
"Monster Koukou, go and tear up all the obstacles in front of me!"
"I'm the captain. Fire! Fire!"
"I'm the captain!"
"I am!"
The whole city of Sean was full of talk about adventure, sailing, and wealth. Everyone was talking about this adventure. Many sailors and merchant ships once again forgot the horror and fear of the sea. They rushed to the depths of the sea, hoping to find the legendary Swirl Continent and the Yala Continent. They wanted to bring back great wealth from the Mermaid Kingdom and the Elf Kingdom, just like the sailors on the Legendary Adventurer. They wanted to become famous overnight, get an audience with the Prime Minister, and get a title and a lot of wealth.
However, at this moment, Marina did not participate in any of this. Instead, she was in the newly established Akkad Alchemy College in the city of Te的. At the top of the castle, Akkad was lying on a chair, watching the tiny snowflakes outside the window.
The weather in Te。 was relatively warm, and it was generally difficult to encounter the heavy snow and cold winter in the north. However, at this time, the temperature had also plummeted. In the lounge on the top of the castle, a fireplace was lit.
Marina slowly told Akkad about her experiences along the way. Her tone was very calm. As she slowly talked about the Yala Continent, Wendy, and Wolfe, Akkad's expression slowly changed.
"Ah! I really miss them! "
Akkad was now very old. This was because of the sequelae of his failed advancement, and his age had reached the limit. In this last period of time, time seemed to be passing faster for him.
As Marina spoke, she slowly began to sob. Akkad then said, "Well, what about the rest of the story? How is the wizard tower? "
Marina suddenly remembered something. "By the way, here is a letter that the tutor of the wizard tower asked me to bring to you. It was a letter from Tutor Catherine."
A smile appeared on Akkad's face. "Catherine, how is she?"
Marina nodded. "Tutor Catherine has become a level four wizard. She is very young and beautiful. She asked me to tell you that she misses you very much."
Alad laughed. "If she had said this to Frank, he would have been very happy. Frank liked her the most, but unfortunately, she married an ordinary person."
Akkad could not help but sigh deeply. "Frank … Frank is dead, and I … I am going to die too!"
After saying this, Akkad coughed violently. Marina lowered her head and kept wiping her tears. Akkad opened the letter and slowly read it. In the letter, Katherine said a lot, and Akkad recalled their childhood little by little.
At that time, there were very few people in the wizard tower, only the first batch of apprentices. Each of them came to the wizard tower with longing and hope, and it was there that completely changed everyone's fate.
Akkad smiled as he watched. He could still remember each and every one of them. The clever and wise Frank, the proud and confident Leves, the honest and honest Uruk, the beautiful Catherine, and Henry, who always followed behind them. Everyone in the first generation of wizards. That was more than a hundred years ago. They were all so young and full of enthusiasm, full of hope and dreams for the future. They looked forward to using the knowledge they had learned and their power to change the world.
"Ah! How young we were then! "
"I still remember Frank standing on the steeple of the castle, shouting to the sky!"
"The future is ours!"
"Frank wanted to be an excellent doctor, and Levis wanted to be a real aristocrat. We secretly liked Catherine because she was the daughter of a pianist. I didn't tell Frank, but I also confessed to Catherine. She was born with a temperament that attracted us. Each of us had a simple dream. We were all so ignorant and naive, and our understanding of the world was so shallow. We thought we had the whole world!"
Akkad kept talking, and his eyes gradually became hazy, as if the world was slowly leaving his sight. "I really miss them. I really want to be with them, again … again …"
Before Akkad could finish his sentence, he saw his fingers loosen, and the letter fell from the fingers of his robotic arm. Then, Akkad closed his eyes little by little.
The wind blew open the glass window, and snowflakes flew in. At this time, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Akkad's students all rushed in. Seeing Akkad quietly sleeping with his eyes closed, everyone took off their hats and lowered their heads.
Akkad passed through the door of the underworld in a daze. There seemed to be a tall monster there, using a giant fork to stab the people who didn't line up properly. There weren't many people in line. Akkad seemed to have lost all his memories, and was only moving forward based on instinct. In front of him, there seemed to be something attracting him, waiting for him.
Finally, after crossing the Styx on a ferry held by a strange figure wrapped in bandages, he saw a familiar figure on the other side of the river, which was full of strange black trees. He stretched out his finger and touched his forehead, and his memory began to come back.
"Teacher Anthony!"
Lu Zhiyu stood next to the Styx and looked at Akkad. "I said I would see you again."
Akkad looked around and asked, "Where is this?"
Lu Zhiyu nodded, confirming Akkad's thoughts. "The underworld. In front of us, there is a city of souls. All the dead will go there to report. Some will be nailed to the wall, some will be sentenced to stay in the underworld, and some will be able to return to the human world for an afterlife!"
Akkad looked at Lu Zhiyu and asked, "Teacher, why are you here?"
Lu Zhiyu looked at Akkad and said, "You should already have an idea about my identity."
Akkad looked at Lu Zhiyu, and Lu Zhiyu quietly looked at Akkad. Akkad suddenly laughed. Just like the last time when Lu Zhiyu met Frank here, he didn't ask any more questions. He just walked past Akkad and walked towards the back.
"What about my afterlife?"
"You will meet up with your friends and live an ordinary and happy life, just like you want!"
"Sounds good!"
"Goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
