Chapter 702 - An Old Sea Chart
Angor didn’t say anything. It seemed “destiny” meant completely different things in their view.
To Angor, destiny meant finding the legacy left behind by a great wizard, the nest of a powerful monster, or a hidden treasure vault in an unknown dimension. It called for both luck and effort since one needed a lot of work to find them.
But what Boro said was basically waiting for gold to drop on his head.
Boro saw Angor was unresponsive and stroked his beard with a smile. “My teacher is Mister Wallace, by the way. From him, I learned the strict ways of an academician. I’m too old to compete with young ones.”
In other words, he could do nothing other than “picking up leftovers” now.
As they talked, Hami had settled his business with the other apprentices as well. Willingly or not, they agreed to let Hami return to Brute Cavern first, who would convince more people to join the job, one way or another.
Hami came back to Angor with a bright smile. “It’s settled. Now quick. I really want to go back.”
Angor looked at Hami’s expression and felt as if he shouldn’t break down someone’s hope so cruelly. However… it couldn’t be helped now.
“I see. I’m planning to head there though.”
“To Marginalized Island? That’s pretty far, and I don’t think you can find any talents there.” Boro shook his head but decided not to question Angor’s purpose. “I’ve got an answer. They have a ship departing, but it’s not going for the Land of Revelation. They’re heading to Ferran Land next week.”
Ferran Land? Angor checked the problematic sea chart again.
On the chart, Ferran Land was right next to the Land of Revelation. But from what he remembered, these two places were at least ten thousand kilometers apart.
That might be a great distance in the view of mortals. But not to Gondola.
Angor nodded. “Alright. I’ll go with them to Ferran Land. Then I’ll go for the Land of Revelation from there.”
Again, Boro went upstairs to confirm the new passenger, and he reached an agreement with the ship’s holder soon.
“They said yes. However, they hope that you can protect the mortals on the ship while at it, who are the majority of the voyagers. Of course, you’re free to abandon them should anything that threatens your life comes about.”
“Are there any other supernatural individuals with us?”
“I don’t know. But according to conventions, they will have at least one powerful level-3 apprentice serving as a guard, or even wizards, if the ship must sail into Devil’s Water in the wrong months.”
