In the spacious room, Radel held an iron walking stick in his hand and slowly walked out, his back slowly disappearing from Adil's sight.
Standing where he was and looking at the items in his hands, Adil nodded, "Although I lost the two Gold Nain Leaves, it was worth it to be able to exchange them for these items."
Just a moment ago, he had struck a deal with Radel. In order to exchange for the two Gold Nain Leaves from Adil, Radel had paid a huge price.
Putting aside the high-level knowledge on bloodline modification, there was also information on enchantment runes that could be used for research.
Under normal circumstances, this was a high-level knowledge that was difficult to obtain. Now that he could exchange it for two Gold Nain Leaves, it was a very good deal for Adil.
"I'll go back and research the information on enchantment runes. It's best if I can use it immediately."
Standing where he was, Adil thought to himself, "Although I've always been using the Black Rui sword, it's becoming less and less useful now that I'm a level 3 acolyte. It's time to strengthen it."
The weapon he was currently using was still the Black Rui sword that Count Boria had given him when he had first advanced to a Knight. The entire sword was made of Black Rui steel. It was a good weapon for regular Knights and even Grand Knights, but it was nothing in the eyes of a Magus.
After all, Black Rui steel was an extremely rare material in the eyes of mortals, but in the eyes of Magi, it was only a basic alchemy material. In the academy, it could be bought with a few magic crystals. It was not a good item at all.
The reason why Adil kept using this weapon was because it was easy to use, and also because he could not find a better weapon to replace it with.
In the Magus World, enchanted weapons were even rarer and more precious than ordinary magic artifacts. Even if one could occasionally see one in the academy, with Adil's wealth, he would not be able to afford one unless he went bankrupt.
"Just nice, this voyage will take at least a month. I can use this time to study this information."
After thinking for a moment, Adil walked out of the room and returned to his own.
Time passed quickly, and a few days passed.
After a few days, the ship arrived at another port.
After arriving here, Adil's group of three each had their own destination and would soon part ways here.
Adil and Radel were on the same path, and their destination was the Bar Islands. Crady, on the other hand, was going to take a ship to some islands in the south, seemingly to investigate something.
They left each other's marks and approximate addresses, preparing to contact each other in the future. Then, they separated and went in different directions.
The ship continued to sail far away from the port.
One month later.
Early in the morning, the sea breeze slowly blew, bringing with it a unique smell of the sea.
"Adil, we're almost there. How do you feel?"
I stood on the deck in Silence. Radel's voice sounded behind me.
Behind Adil, Radel wore a white robe and held an iron cane in his hand. His complexion was much better than before, making him look younger.
"I'm alright."
Looking at Radel, Adil said softly, "I left the Baal Islands when I was very young. I don't have much feeling for this place."
"What about you? How do you feel? "Standing on the spot, he looked at Radell and asked.
"A little emotional, that's all." Walking silently to Adil's side, Radel sighed, "I left when I was 12, and it's been almost 30 years. I've been here for less than three years, and most of my time is spent outside. "
"That's normal." Adil nodded, "I heard from other wizards that there are very few resources in this area. It's normal that you don't want to stay here."
"That's true." Listening to Adil's words, Radel nodded with deep emotion, "The Bar Islands are too barren. There isn't even a single resource point, and the surrounding wizards are pitifully few."
Hearing Radel's words, Adil suddenly thought of the City of Ancient Armor.
"That must be it," he thought to himself as he looked at the endless sea in front of him.
They chatted for a while, then turned around and went to their own rooms.
Soon, another two days passed. One afternoon, the ship slowly docked and arrived at a port.
Adil and Radel disembarked from the ship and slowly walked into the distance.
In the distance, Adil and Radel's silhouettes could be seen and a large group of people were quickly approaching them.
"Radel!" A shout came from afar.
Within the crowd, a man of medium build wearing linen robes quickly walked towards Radel.
"Kaige, long time no see!"
Radel revealed a faint smile when he saw the person approaching from afar. He quickly walked forward and gave the person a hug.
"Haha! It's been a long time. It's been three years since you last came back. "
In front of them, a middle-aged man named Cager smiled at Radel.
"It can't be helped. This place is too far from the southern continent, and it's too troublesome to rush back."
Radel revealed a bitter smile as he explained to the young man.
"Come, let me introduce you." After a while, he pulled Cager to Adil's side and said to the two of them with a smile.
"This is Adil. Just like us, he's also an Acolyte," Radel explained to Kaige.
After hearing Radel's words, Kaig turned around and shifted his gaze to Adil.
He was momentarily stunned. His spiritual force could sense that Adil's body was giving off a unique magic power undulation. He was evidently a level 3 Acolyte.
Sensing this, he looked at Adil's youthful appearance and could not help but feel surprised. He then smiled warmly, "Welcome back!"
"Thank you." Seeing the enthusiastic smile on the other party's face, Adil showed a polite smile and said to the other party.
After introducing Adil, Radel turned to Kaige, "This is Kaige, also a level 3 Acolyte."
"He's an elder of the southern alliance and the leader of a local Magus family. In the future, if Adil needs anything, you can ask him for help. "
"Come to think of it, Adil, your family should be in the southern countries, right?" Radel paused for a moment before continuing, "If that's the case, you can be considered a Magus born in the southern countries. You can definitely take up the position of an elder in the southern alliance."
"Southern alliance?" Hearing this unfamiliar term, Adil asked doubtfully.
"The so-called Southern Alliance is an alliance of the southern countries, backed by a few local Magus families." Looking at Adil, Radel shrugged, "You know, the royal families of many countries are actually Magus families."
"Joining this alliance and taking up the position of an elder is not too much of a restriction. Instead, you can borrow the strength of the alliance to obtain some resources. Not only will it be convenient for you to integrate into the local Magus circle, it will also be of great benefit to your family. "
"If that's the case, then I can consider it," Adil said after thinking for a moment.
An organization like the Southern Alliance sounded rather loose. If the conditions were right, Adil would not mind joining it.
After all, he had left the academy and would have to find many resources by himself. If he could integrate into the local Magus circle, it would undoubtedly be more convenient.
"We'll discuss the specifics later."
Standing at the side, Kaiger smiled and interrupted, "As for now, join the banquet we've prepared for you."
After saying this, he said to the two of them and took the lead to lead the way.
"Elder Radel!" A few voices sounded in front of them.
Among the welcoming party, a few people dressed in luxurious clothing walked up to Radel and greeted him respectfully.
Radel only nodded in response. His attitude was very cold, and he did not have the enthusiasm he had when he was with Adil and the others.
Silence continued for a while before they boarded a carriage and arrived at a manor in the depths of the port.
Upon entering the manor, a few nobles walked in from the side. When they saw Radel and Kaiger, their expressions were extremely respectful, without the slightest trace of a noble's temperament.
"Who is that Sir?" A soft voice sounded from the side.
Silently following beside Radel and Kaiger, Adil's expression was calm. He walked in the middle of the road in Silence, looking calm and at ease.
He had a good appearance to begin with, and now he was wearing a moon-colored robe. Standing in the middle of the crowd with the other two, he looked calm and collected, immediately attracting the attention of the people around him.
"Could he be the descendant of Elder Radel and Elder Kaiger?"
Someone saw Adil standing next to Radell and Kaige and couldn't help but speculate.
"Have you seen any descendant who dares to stand beside Elder Radel and Elder Kaiger?" A rebuttal sounded from the side.
Hearing this, the surrounding nobles nodded.
The nobles had their own set of etiquette. The nobles who were qualified to welcome Radel were basically all High Nobles, and they valued this aspect even more.
On the road in the middle of the road, Adil walked side by side with the other two. To a certain extent, this meant that Adil's status was not lower than the other two, and they were completely on equal footing.
