Chapter 561 Servant Ed
Normally, messengers can go to most places, and there are even some that can cross planes, like toads.
But some places are not easy to enter. For example, some important places are protected by special witch formations, and ordinary messengers cannot enter.
Several wizard organizations in the Barrens basically have such a defense mechanism. Under normal circumstances, messengers cannot enter unless they have cooperated and registered in advance.
Naturally, Dream Island also has such a witch formation, and it is not an ordinary witch formation.
Dream Island is located in the sea. With the help of the power of the sea, the effect of the defensive witch formation is greatly improved, far exceeding the ordinary defense effect.
Of course, such a defense is of no use to the toad, and you can get in if you want.
The only problem is that this time it's not a letter, but a person.
If Toad directly breaks through the defense of Dream Island and sends Herage in.
The first time it is discovered by the wizards of Dream Island, it will definitely be besieged.
They don't care who you are. You have invaded your lair, so you must take action first.
Herague was not confident enough to deal with a wizard organization by himself, even the wizard organization in the Barrens.
The foundation of any wizard organization cannot be underestimated. After all, these wizard organizations in the Barrens were once wizard organizations in the Land of Dawn.
Although the competition failed, they survived at least. I don’t know how many wizard organizations have disappeared in the long river of history.
There is no simple wizard organization that can survive to this day.
What's more, Herage was visiting friends, not playing in the gym, so there was no need to force his way in.
From this point of view, it was impossible to reach Erza directly. We had to find another target.
The Stavin that the Nightingale Chamber of Commerce was looking for didn't work either, because Herag had never seen this person before.
According to the rules of the messenger, it must be someone who has seen it before he can deliver the letter.
The closer this goal should be to Dream Island, the better.
Herage thought for a moment and quickly came up with an idea, that was Ed.
Ed was the groom who once drove him and followed him to Ryan City.
After Herage left Ryan City, he left his house to Ed and his wife Judy.
More than ten years have passed in a flash, and I don’t know if Ed is still alive.
Herage decided to give it a try and told Toad Ed's name.
Toad closed his eyes and felt it for a while before saying: "No problem, we can locate it, far to the west."
…
Ryan City.
Ed is holding scissors and mowing the lawn in the yard.
The whole yard looks neat and spotless.
You know, it is not easy to keep such a clean, tidy and comfortable home with three children.
Ed mowed the lawn carefully and carefully, just as seriously as when he served that adult.
This house belongs to adults.
Ed has always thought so, even though the adults have already said that the house will be given to him.
After so many years, he has maintained the yard well and never stopped.
The house where Herage once refined potions was still classified as a forbidden area by Ed, who did not allow his three children to break into that place.
Ed himself only went in on time to clean up outside, but never went inside.
He clearly remembered that adults often did some very important things inside, and would stay for a whole day every time they entered.
This shows that it must be a very important place, and you can't just go in there.
Although the adults have left and there probably won't be anything important left inside, Ed has always adhered to his duty.
Ed wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the sky.
Sometimes he also wonders when the adult will come back and drive for him again.
"Oh! It seems I'm really old. I got dizzy and hallucinated after mowing the lawn for a while." Ed heard the movement in front of the yard, looked over and saw an incredible scene.
He saw Herague.
Ed didn't think he really saw Herague, it must have been his hallucination.
More than ten years have passed, and no one will remain unchanged at all.
"Ed! What are you doing?"
It wasn't until Herage said hello that Ed realized that this was not an illusion.
"Really adults?"
Ed was very excited, hunched over and trotted over, kneeling directly on the ground.
"Your most faithful servant, Ed has met your lord!"
Herage asked: "How has your life been these years?"
He saw that although Ed was a little older, his face was rosy and his heartbeat sounded strong. It was obvious that his living standard was still good.
"Thanks to your lord, the city lord helped me open a blacksmith shop, and my life is not bad. By the way, lord, I have three children, all sons!"
Ed briefly talked about his life over the years, and was particularly proud when he mentioned his three sons.
His eldest son is eight years old. It is said that he is very talented as a knight and has already become a teacher to a knight from the city lord's palace.
The second son is younger, only six years old, but he is extremely smart and learns everything quickly. He is currently a student of an old bachelor in Ruin City.
The youngest son can't see anything yet, he is only two years old.
Ed never thought that he would have a wife and three sons in this life.
What I didn't even expect was that these sons could be so promising.
Ed always felt that this was all due to his having served by Herage's side and being tainted by Herage's nobility, so that he had such a blessing.
Judy once said it was the blessing of the gods, but was scolded by Ed on the spot.
In Ed's opinion, no gods work in front of adults.
Gods? Bullshit!
"Where's Judy?" Herrag asked.
Judy was a woman from the slums. She was originally brought here to wash clothes and cook for Herage.
Later, Judy and Ed fell in love and naturally got together.
"The Bright Church was holding a blessing ceremony today, and she took her children there to pray." Ed smiled.
Today, my wife and children happened to be out, and Ed finally had some time to himself, so he came to mow the lawn.
Ed didn't know why, but he felt particularly at ease every time he mowed the lawn.
Herage nodded without saying anything. He glanced at the yard and said, "This yard looks the same as when I just left."
Ed grinned after hearing this, as if he had heard some great compliment.
"How long do you plan to stay when you come back this time? By the way, City Lord, she hasn't been in the city in the past few years."
Ed thought that Herague should be looking for the Lord of Erza when he came back, otherwise he wouldn't have come back suddenly.
It's just that Erza has left Ryan City for a few years, and no one knows where she has gone.
"Well, I know. I just stopped by to see you this time, and I'm ready to leave." Herage said. (End of chapter)
