Chapter 673 Leaving
Dur Valley.
Herag and his party returned to the castle again. The castle was a little shabby and looked like it hadn't been repaired for some years.
But it was not dead silent and completely dilapidated.
Although Count Betz, who occupied this place, did not live here, his subordinates lived here for a long time to facilitate the management of the territory.
So it still looked a little lively here, but the castle was not often repaired and maintained.
Those people in the castle had already evacuated and did not dare to stay at all.
Emile only came with Melissa and his children, and he was not prepared to move here again.
Most of his resources and interpersonal relationships are now in Swan City, and it is impossible for him to give up all of them and come back here again.
For them, this place represents more of a meaning, and it is highly likely that they will not move back to live here permanently.
Of course, it does not mean that they will give up the Dur Valley.
There are still various benefits such as taxes here, but they will not live here for a long time.
With the help of King Raymond, Emile and his team don't need to worry about many things.
A group of people walked into the castle. Emile and others were relatively silent. The scene brought back many memories.
On the contrary, Eric and other juniors were more active and curious about this place.
They didn't feel much about these things. They just took it as a trip and were very curious about the place where their parents used to live.
Emile suddenly saw something, touched Herag and smiled: "Look, that's where you lived before."
Everyone also heard it, and looked over and found that it was a very small and shabby cabin next to the stable.
"Isn't this... where the groom lives?" Eric hesitated and said.
"I used to be a groom in the castle." Herag smiled.
"Ah?" Eric and other juniors were stunned and couldn't believe it.
They couldn't imagine that such a noble wizard like Herag was actually a groom before.
Herag looked at the small and pitiful cabin, as if he remembered how he was shivering with cold when he first came to this world.
After walking around the castle for a few times, the group came to the cemetery behind the castle.
The tombstones and graves in the cemetery were not damaged, but they were overgrown with weeds. Obviously, no one had come here for many years, and many tombstones were even completely covered and submerged by weeds.
The people buried in this cemetery were all members of the Sarah family. The group began to clear the weeds here, and it didn't take long to completely clear it out.
Herag found the grave of old Henry. The tombstone he erected at that time had completely collapsed and rotted, and it became an unnamed grave.
These must all need subsequent repairs.
Melissa was crying in front of Baron Buck's grave at this time. Although she knew that she was not Baron Buck's biological daughter, her feelings were real.
The group stayed in the castle for a month to deal with various things.
The cemetery has been completely repaired, and the damaged graves and tombstones have been repaired with the best materials.
The castle has also been completely renewed, and it has been repaired from beginning to end, from inside to outside.
The residents in Dur Valley also learned the news. Many older residents who had experienced the Baron Buck period were a little emotional.
I didn't expect that after thirty years, the people of the Sara family could come back.
Melissa and Emil have changed a lot, and they have regained their youthful appearance, even younger than Eric.
After Emil's affairs were dealt with, Helag was ready to leave, and there were still some things to deal with.
He took out a necklace, each with a pendant, which looked the same.
"You carry this pendant with you to protect your safety. Don't take it off unless there is a special situation." Helag said.
This is the amulet he got from the border. It is essentially a second-level magic weapon that does not need to be triggered actively. Even ordinary people can use it.
For Emil and others, as long as they wear this thing, almost nothing can hurt them.
Before the construction of the northern region is completed, it is most appropriate for Emil and others to stay in the Colson continent. The danger level here is very low and it is also a place they are familiar with.
...
After Herag said goodbye to Emil and others, he prepared to go to the Seville Empire in the east of the Coulson Continent.
The Seville Empire was ruled by the Stewart family, and the Stewart family was the family that Lillian belonged to.
Lillian happened to be back home during this period, and was in the Seville Empire.
She had also been promoted to a second-level wizard, and at this stage, she could only take it slowly.
So Lillian also took advantage of this period after the promotion to take a leave and go back home.
Originally, Lillian planned to return to Augustus College in two months, but she didn't expect so many things to happen in a blink of an eye, and they were all related to Herag.
After the historical truth of the Six Rings Tower was exposed, the wizards of the entire Augustus College had a hard time.
Because those histories were really not glorious, Augustus College could almost be said to be the sinner of the entire wizard plane.
If it weren't for them, the development of the wizard plane would not have stagnated for so many years, and it could even be considered a regression.
Originally, the wizards of other wizard organizations didn't think anything of it, but after seeing the people from the border area, they realized that the border area had developed to this level, and they couldn't help but have some opinions about Augustus College.
During this period, there were even some incidents of Augustus College wizards being attacked. I don't know whether it was really because of resentment for what they had done, or because of personal grudges.
When Herag knew this, he was also a little speechless. At least the wizard organizations in the Land of Dawn were not qualified to say anything. They were all beneficiaries, so how could they be qualified to stand up and make decisions.
Herag had contacted Lillian before and asked her whether she wanted to leave Augustus College. With Herag's relationship, it would not be a problem to enter the border area.
With Lillian's qualifications, maybe she could even enter the Six Ring Tower headquarters.
Lillian did not give a direct reply. She was also a little entangled and hesitant. After all, she had been in Augustus College for so many years.
Herag has been thinking about this for a while. Actually, Lillian doesn't need to leave Augustus College in name. She can just say she is going out to travel.
It's just a title anyway. There is no contract. The most important thing is to obtain the resources and knowledge of the border area.
As a friend, Herag is naturally happy to help in these aspects. (End of this chapter)
