Wizard, I Have Another World – Chapter 93

Chapter 93: Pirates

Although the Minor Mage Hand has been constructed, the free wizard courses should still be attended.

After all,

When explaining the Minor Mage Hand, it will definitely involve the basic theoretical knowledge of various schools such as ‘mechanics’ and ‘mysticism’. This basic knowledge is not only useful for the Minor Mage Hand, but also beneficial for future cultivation of related spells.

Moreover, free things should be taken advantage of.

Time flows.

With the assistance of sufficient medicine, Karl’s mental state and physique are slowly improving.

This kind of visible all-round improvement made him immersed in it. The frequency of leaving the island became increasingly rare, unless it was for wizardry lessons, he usually stayed on the island all day.

Gradually,

he, who was once somewhat famous for saving his senior martial sister, was inevitably forgotten.

The people at the forefront of the Swamp Alliance are all senior wizard apprentices with outstanding talent.

Such as: Mordecai, Omar…

Karl, who has mediocre talent, limited future achievements, and is taciturn, is easily overlooked.

When he is mentioned, the comments are mostly that he is a junior wizard apprentice who was lucky enough to get an island, or that he is Sybil’s junior martial brother.

On the contrary, Sybil, because of her frequent participation in missions and several eye-catching performances, especially as she is about to break through to become a senior wizard apprentice, her reputation is growing.

…………

Free Port.

Potion Shop.

Various herbs and materials are disassembled, ground, and mixed, then poured into thumb-sized potion bottles.

Bottles of potions are neatly arranged, either sent to various parts of the trading company or placed in shops for sale.

In the peaceful days, Aya, with her long hair up, is skillfully busy, her figure moving constantly in front of her eyes.

Karl is lying on a rocking chair, his eyes half-closed, his expression relaxed, gazing at the crimson moon in the sky.

“Aya.”

He took out a high-quality beast pill and put it in his mouth, slowly savoring it as if chewing on candy, and casually said:

“It’s been more than a year since we came to Free Port, right?”

“Yes.”

Aya stopped what she was doing, her eyes dazed:

“It’s so fast, it feels like the days in Black City were not long ago, but it’s already been more than a year?”

“Indeed!”

Karl sighed softly:

“Time flies so fast, you’ve slowly grown up, find some time to buy some nice clothes on the street.”

Aya’s face flushed slightly.

In Black City, it was common to have irregular meals, and it was normal to go hungry for a few days.

Without nutrition, the body naturally became thin and gaunt.

Now that she has food and drink every day and sufficient nutrition, Aya’s figure is gradually conforming to the trend of her age.

She is starting to become curvaceous.

“Okay.”

Aya pursed her lips and asked cautiously:

“Uncle, what color clothes do you think would look better on me?”

“Purple, I guess.” Karl said casually:

“You can try it.”

“Purple?” Aya blinked her eyes, lost in thought.

Karl took out a bright red beast pill, examined it for a moment before putting it in his mouth.

This was a beast pill refined with the flesh and blood of a legendary creature, placed by Jasper in a secret treasure chamber.

It seems,

Even a Grand Knight would rarely be able to use it for cultivation.

Refining beast pills not only requires exotic beast meat containing life force, but also various auxiliary materials.

The stronger the beast meat, the rarer the auxiliary materials required. The auxiliary materials for legendary creatures are all extremely rare, so these types of beast pills are also rare items.

Giant Spirit Breathing Technique!

Furnace Method!

Instantly.

The internal organs in his body churned wildly, like a gluttonous beast that had been hungry for a long time, rapidly devouring the surging energy.

“Boom!”

The beast pill that fell into his stomach was like a high-heat bomb, bursting out with vast energy, surging towards his limbs and bones.

Even with Karl’s outstanding physique, he couldn’t help but take a sharp breath, and a layer of red appeared on the surface of his skin.

His whole body was like a large furnace.

Aya, who was busy, looked puzzled, fanned her cheeks with her hand, and looked curiously outside.

In this weather,

it shouldn’t be this hot!

“Hoo…”

Opening his eyes, Karl exhaled a breath of turbid air, the breath gathering into a sword, shooting out several meters before slowly dissipating.

‘The effect is amazing, if I can take this kind of beast pill every day, I will soon reach the Peak Grand Knight realm.’

“Mr. Karl.”

A dark shadow blocked his view of the sky, Jacqueline entered the shop, and respectfully said:

“Knight Yates wants to see you.”

…………

Yates!

The only son of the Sickle Brotherhood’s Fourth Elder, Eagle Henry, a shrewd and very timid businessman.

When Karl first arrived in Free Port, Yates had tried to recruit him.

Unfortunately,

because the promised rune could not be delivered, the recruitment failed, and Yates even hid himself and did not show his face.

This kind of response clearly lacked courage.

It seemed very cowardly.

However, Karl had no malice towards him, after all, it was not Yates’s fault that the rune could not be delivered.

Later, the two had some contact, and to express his apology, Yates even sold him many things cheaply, which won him some favor.

“Come!”

In a private room at the tavern, Yates warmly greeted:

“This is strong liquor sold in the West Dwarf Gathering Area. Now that the trade routes are not good, it’s becoming increasingly rare.”

“Try it!”

Karl picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and the spicy taste instantly filled his mouth, giving him a slightly dizzy feeling.

“Not bad.”

“Very good!”

“Haha…” Yates laughed:

“I’m glad you like it.”

“Try the dishes!”

“Free Port is close to the Endless Sea, our seafood processing here should be the best in the Duke’s territory.”

He warmly greeted, introducing the dishes and wine on the table one by one.

“Yates.”

Karl spoke:

“We are old friends, you can speak directly, there is no need to be so polite.”

“Heh…” Yates paused, nodded, and sat down, saying:

“Karl, you should have heard that the Dragon King of the Dragon King Trading Company is dead, have you considered changing places?”

“The Dragon King is dead?” Karl shook his head:

“It’s just a rumor.”

“No.” Yates said with a solemn expression:

“It’s not a rumor, I have received definite news that Dragon King Zimmerman is indeed dead.”

“The news was spread by the Dragon King Trading Company itself, your trading company might be in turmoil.”

This kind of news must be strictly guarded, and if it is spread by their own people, it is very likely that the internal situation is already unstable.

“……” Karl pondered for a moment, then shook his head and chuckled:

“It doesn’t matter!”

“I’m just a small pharmacist, no matter who becomes the president, it shouldn’t change anything for me.”

“Not necessarily!” Yates narrowed his eyes:

“I remember, you seem to have offended Jasper?”

“That kind of big shot wouldn’t remember me because of a small matter.” Karl laughed.

“Sigh!” Yates sighed, as if thinking of something, his expression became a little unsightly:

“Sometimes, don’t think too highly of those who are high above, perhaps their minds are even smaller than ordinary people.”

“You don’t know when you might have offended him, maybe one day, it will turn into a fatal blow.”

“Oh!” Karl raised an eyebrow:

“Yates, you seem to have a lot of feelings, have you been targeted before?”

“Targeted?” Yates smiled bitterly:

“This kind of thing is not uncommon.”

“Karl, the Dragon King Trading Company will soon have internal strife, and… other forces don’t want to see a brand new Dragon King Trading Company either. Leaving now can avoid a lot of trouble, the Sickle Brotherhood is an option.”

“Hmm…” Karl thought for a moment:

“What can you offer?”

He didn’t mind leaving the Dragon King Trading Company. Just like what the other party said, the current Dragon King Trading Company was already a huge whirlpool, and leaving as soon as possible could avoid a lot of trouble.

Of course,

there also had to be a good price.

“The conditions that the Dragon King Trading Company gave you, we can give you, plus an extra Shadow Walker Rune.” Saying this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Yates’s face:

“This time, there will definitely be no mistakes!”

Shadow Walker Rune?

Karl shook his head lightly.

When he had just been promoted to a knight, he needed a good rune to improve his strength, but now it was different.

Having inherited Adolf’s legacy, Karl was not lacking in methods to deal with enemies, and he had so many zero-circle spells that he didn’t know which one to choose.

Moreover,

he was now already a Grand Knight, even if he had the Shadow Walker Rune, it would have little effect on increasing his strength.

“Yates.”

Picking up his wine glass, Karl said slowly:

“You should be very clear about how the potions I refine are doing in the market, and how much profit they can generate each month.”

“Shadow Walker…”

“If it were a Blood Thorn, I might consider it.”

“Are you kidding me?” Yates looked speechless:

“That’s simply impossible!”

Blood Thorn!

The most famous rune of the Sickle Brotherhood, there were only a few, and even his father was not qualified to refine it.

This kind of rune belonged to the Super Rune category, and it could even allow a knight to kill a Grand Knight above their level.

“That’s a pity then.”

Karl sighed and said:

“Actually, I have several other potion formulas that can create twice the profit than what I’m making now.”

“Maybe even more…”

He sat up straight:

“Yates, if the Sickle Brotherhood wants to recruit me, they should be more sincere. I’m also looking for my own partners.”

“Oh!” Yates frowned:

“What kind of sincerity are you talking about…”

“The things I want.” Karl said seriously:

“Super Runes! Great God’s Grace! Legendary Creatures!”

?

Yates’s expression froze:

“Karl, are you kidding me?”

How many Super Runes does the entire Sickle Brotherhood have? Even Grand Knights might not be eligible to have one.

As for Great God’s Grace…

he had lived for so many years, had come into contact with countless precious items, but had only seen it once when he was a child.

Legendary Creatures?

Each one was worth hundreds of thousands of God’s Grace Coins, and the hunting of each one meant that many people would lose their lives.

“I’m not kidding.”

Karl shook his head slowly, his expression calm:

“Yates, what I can provide is not just the potions I’m selling now, but also other things…”

“You should be a Peak Knight now, right?”

“Yes.” Yates narrowed his eyes:

“Although I’m a Peak Knight, I’m not good at fighting, and my strength is even less than some ordinary knights.”

“What do you want to say?”

“Have you ever thought about becoming a Grand Knight one day?” Karl looked at him and spoke slowly.

As his voice fell, a powerful and majestic aura slowly emerged from his body.

“Bang!”

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Jacqueline, with sweat on her forehead, rushed in, and said urgently:

“It’s not good, someone is causing trouble at Mr. Karl’s shop.”

“Huh?”

Karl frowned, and the aura on his body instantly dissipated:

“I’ll go take a look.”

Yates opened his mouth, reaching out to stop him, but before he could speak, Karl had already pushed open the door and left.

“That aura just now…”

Looking at Karl’s back, Yates’s eyes were filled with doubt:

“A hallucination?”

“It must be a hallucination!”

*

*

*

Aya lowered her body and rushed forward quickly.

In the past year, besides learning the skill of refining potions from Karl, she had also learned breathing techniques.

With the assistance of beast pills, she was already a Knight Squire.

“Swish!”

She tapped her foot on the ground, her figure moved forward several meters in an instant, and a few feathered arrows appeared where she had just landed.

“Who shot the arrows?”

“Take them alive!”

Someone among the pursuers roared:

“Do you understand taking them alive!”

“This girl knows how to refine potions, her value is more than all of us combined, if she gets injured, we won’t be able to explain to the higher-ups.”

The roar was getting closer and closer.

Aya’s face was gloomy, and as she rushed forward, she took out a potion from her waist and swallowed it, her speed suddenly increasing.

Light Agility Potion!

A wizardry potion that could increase one’s speed, it was expensive, and she had never been willing to take it.

“Sister Aya!”

At this moment, a shout came from ahead, and Leon and a few strong men appeared at the end of the street, rushing towards her.

***

At the same time, they shouted loudly:

“Who are you? How dare you chase after a pharmacist from the Dragon King Trading Company?”

Leon was no longer the thin and weak boy he once was, but a Peak Knight Squire with a rune.

The people beside him were all former escapees from Black City, and many had received assistance from Aya.

Now seeing that Aya was being chased, they couldn’t help but feel anger surging within them.

“Retreat!”

Seeing that things were not going well, the pursuers decisively retreated, but their cold gazes indicated that this matter would not end here.

“Sister Aya!”

“Hoo…” Aya gasped for breath, waved her hand:

“Let’s go to Sister Susan’s shop first, something is not right, these people are not afraid of the Dragon King Trading Company?”

“Right.” Leon nodded quickly:

“Let’s find Sister Susan first.”

A group of people hurriedly arrived at the shop located at the core of the Vanilla Market. At this time, many people had already gathered there.

The crowd looked flustered, whispering about something.

Susan was surrounded by the crowd, constantly comforting others, and did not even have time to notice them.

“Sister Aya.”

Leon whispered:

“It seems that it’s not just you who were attacked, other places are as well. This is an organized and premeditated action.”

“Who could it be?”

Those who dare to attack the Dragon King Trading Company and have the strength to do so, there are only two other forces in Free Port.

The key is,

why?

The Dragon King Trading Company is not weak, even if the other two forces joined forces, they might not be able to take it down easily.

Even if they forcefully took it down, it would not be worth the loss.

Unless…

“There is a problem within the trading company!”

Aya’s mind raced, and she said:

“It seems that the rumors are true, Dragon King Zimmerman is dead, Miss Lula is too young, and the two vice presidents are at odds with each other…”

In an instant.

The rumors in the market, Karl’s ambiguous words, and his careful instructions, all had an explanation.

At this moment.

“Bang!”

A loud bang suddenly came from outside the door.

“People of the Dragon King Trading Company, don’t think that just because you have a lot of people, you can get away with not paying your debts.”

The roar was like thunder.

It was as if muffled thunder was exploding in their ears, and everyone inside the house turned pale, and some even collapsed directly on the ground.

“Two years ago, you owed me 200,000 God’s Grace Coins, and you keep delaying payment, how long do you want to drag it out?”

“Susan!”

“Get out here!”

The huge roar shook the entire shop, dust fell down, and it also stirred up the anger of the crowd.

“Who is it?”

“How dare they!”

“How dare they cause trouble at the Dragon King Trading Company’s shop!”

“Go!”

The crowd rushed out of the shop, and the people on the outer edge had already started to attack, with fists, feet, and weapons.

But, alas.

“Crackling…”

“Bang!”

Along with a series of muffled sounds, the area in front of the shop door suddenly became empty, and the people who had rushed up were sent flying back one after another.

This even included two knights.

Those who were sent flying back had their skin and flesh torn open, and those who landed heavily coughed up blood, and it was unknown how many bones were broken.

“Hiss…”

Someone gasped:

“It’s Sea Dragon DeWitt, I didn’t expect him to come ashore, and he even dares to provoke the Dragon King Trading Company?”

The man standing at the door was over two meters tall, his muscles were clearly defined, his bare upper body had scars all over, and his messy golden hair added a bit of rebelliousness and wildness.

On his back was a knife, the shape of which was very strange, like the teeth of some kind of wild beast.

Although he was alone, he showed no fear in the face of the surrounding crowd, and even had a hint of disdain.

Sea Dragon DeWitt!

A notorious pirate!

He made a living by plundering merchant ships in the Endless Sea, and his giant shuttle pirate ship was the nightmare of many fishermen.

The number of people who had died at his hands was countless.

This kind of person should be shouted at by everyone in Free Port, but not only did he dare to show his face, but he also provoked the Dragon King Trading Company.

“DeWitt!”

Susan separated the crowd, her eyes cold:

“I think you’re really tired of living, you actually dare to come and cause trouble for our Dragon King Trading Company!”

“One thing is one thing.” DeWitt curled his lips:

“Two years ago, you, the Dragon King Trading Company, asked me to deal with a cargo ship of the Sea God Society, and I did it, but you didn’t acknowledge it.”

“That’s 200,000 God’s Grace Coins…”

“Since you don’t want to pay, then I’ll just have to come and take it myself.”

“Whoa…”

The crowd was in an uproar.

This was the Vanilla Market, where the flow of people was dense.

And now someone was causing trouble at the Dragon King Trading Company’s shop, and the surrounding crowd was already full of people, and they couldn’t help but whisper to each other.

The conflicts between the three major forces were well known, but no one dared to say it openly.

No one thought that Sea Dragon DeWitt was lying, with his identity and what he had done, there was no need for that.

The Dragon King Trading Company actually hired pirates to deal with the Sea God Society?

“Nonsense!”

Susan’s face changed drastically, and she roared:

“There is absolutely no such thing!”

“You say there isn’t, and there isn’t?” DeWitt’s eyes widened:

“200,000 God’s Grace Coins is not a small amount, not paying for two years, it’s no problem to double it with interest, right?”

“Since your trading company is unwilling to pay, then use this shop as compensation, including the people in the shop.”

“You…”

He pointed at Susan, a strange smile on his face:

“Your figure is very good, stay and warm my bed.”

DeWitt had been mixing on the sea for half his life, although he was unrestrained, he was also tired of that kind of life.

Who didn’t want to eat well, live well, and play well?

Now that someone had given him this opportunity, to be able to settle down in Free Port legitimately, he immediately agreed.

“Bullshit!”

Susan roared:

“Go to hell!”

Swish!

A scimitar broke through the air, heading straight for DeWitt.

“Good!”

DeWitt narrowed his eyes slightly, a sinister smile on his face:

“Spicy enough, that’s how it should be, a woman like this is more interesting to play with in bed.”

“Clang…”

He raised his hand and made a fist, striking at the incoming scimitar, his flesh and blood actually knocking the scimitar away.

Susan’s face changed drastically, her body lost balance uncontrollably, and she watched helplessly as the other party reached out to hug her.

“Stop!”

A person rushed out from the crowd, holding a harpoon, and with a light flick, it shot out like lightning.

The sound of the air being torn was sharp, making people’s scalps tingle.

Peak Knight!

As the main shop of the Dragon King Trading Company in the Vanilla Market, there was always a Peak Knight stationed here.

“Huh?”

DeWitt’s eyes flickered, he pushed Susan away with his hand, his shoulder shook, and the scimitar on his back flew out on its own.

“Interesting.”

“Let’s play!”

“Clang…”

The scimitar lightly blocked the harpoon.

The Peak Knight of the Dragon King Trading Company’s face changed, he suddenly turned around, and the harpoon in his hand flickered, instantly creating a myriad of harpoon shadows.

But the next moment.

A strangely shaped scimitar easily shattered the harpoon shadows, as if entering an uninhabited land, and slashed at his chest.

“Puff!”

The Peak Knight of the Dragon King Trading Company coughed up blood and retreated, his eyes filled with horror. Before he could stabilize his breath, he felt a pain in his neck, and then his vision moved uncontrollably, and a headless corpse came into view.

A headless corpse?

Whose is it?

It turns out it’s me…

With a sudden realization, his consciousness fell into endless darkness.

“Heh…”

DeWitt shook his head with disdain:

“So weak!”

“It seems that the Dragon King Trading Company really has no one left, in that case, it’s better to let me manage the shop.”

Saying that, he stepped forward.

“What?”

Looking at the crowd in front of the shop, DeWitt raised an eyebrow:

“Do you have any objections?”

Susan’s face turned pale, and the others subconsciously avoided his gaze, slowly retreating.

“That’s more like it!”

DeWitt nodded with satisfaction at the crowd’s reaction, and approached step by step:

“From now on, you are all mine, first take the things in the shop and let me have a look.”

He pointed at Susan again:

“You!”

“Prepare some snacks and drinks for me.”

“……” Susan’s face was stiff, her silver teeth clenched tightly, and the hand holding the scimitar was bulging with veins.

“Huh?”

DeWitt’s face darkened, and he slapped her with his hand:

“You bitch, what’s with that attitude!”

“Slap!”

Susan staggered backward, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

“Sister Susan!”

“Shopkeeper!”

“……”

The crowd was furious at the sight, but facing DeWitt’s gaze, none of them dared to meet his eyes.

The Sea Dragon’s fierce reputation was deeply rooted in their hearts, and even a Peak Knight was no match for him, so who else would dare to step forward?

“What’s going on?”

Just at this moment, a calm voice sounded:

“Aya, are you alright?”

Karl separated the crowd and walked towards the shop, his gaze sweeping over the crowd and landing on Aya, his expression slightly relaxed.

He received the news and rushed to the shop, but the shop had already been destroyed, and Aya was not there.

Thinking of his previous instructions, he came here.

Sure enough.

Aya was here.

It’s just that the situation here was also a bit bad.

“Uncle Karl!”

“Karl!”

Seeing the person who had come, Aya’s face couldn’t help but show joy, Susan’s eyes flickered slightly, and then dimmed again.

“Another one?” Sea Dragon DeWitt chuckled:

“Here to die?”

“To die?” Karl frowned, although he didn’t know what had happened, his mind instantly cleared up the course of events.

“No!”

“I’m here to deliver a gift, a gift… for a future partner.” He smiled:

“Your head, I think it’s quite suitable.”

“Huh?” Sea Dragon DeWitt’s face darkened:

“Courting death!”

Swish!

The strange scimitar suddenly flashed, instantly crossing the distance of nearly ten meters, the blade’s edge pressing against Karl’s neck.

“Clang…”

The sound of a collision rang out.

A broadsword was placed horizontally in front of the scimitar.

“Boom!”

Two terrifying auras suddenly surged out.

“Grand Knight!”

Someone in the crowd exclaimed.

Seeking collection!!!
