#133 - Magician's Legacy

【Mending Charm】was one of the spells Muen learned in Charms class.

This spell was also a life-assistance spell Muen prepared for the voyage, and he had practiced it for more than two weeks.

Originally, Muen's 【Mending Charm】could only repair small pieces of wood.

But now, with the blessing of the Old Willow Wand, even large fractures on the deck can be easily repaired.

After Muen quickly completed the repair of a huge fracture on the deck, the expression in Hall's eyes changed from disbelief to ecstasy.

"A ship! We're going to have a big ship!"

Hall told Old Luke to stay and look after Muen, while he went to inform everyone in Old Soldier Alley.

Since leaving Xilin, everyone had been very worried, and they were all thinking about how to live next.

Besides food, the most important thing was of course the problem of housing.

The veterans had originally thought about temporarily living in tents in the wild, but the old and weak would not be able to hold on.

Especially now that it's winter, the weather will get colder and colder.

But now with a big ship, that problem will be solved.

The veterans who were cleaning up the battlefield in other places quickly returned after hearing the news.

In their opinion, the gains from cleaning up the battlefield were far less than getting a ship.

And now no one on the ship dared to withhold or hide anything belonging to Muen.

After all, in the recent battle, the magician's magical abilities greatly shocked everyone.

Especially after the pirate leader shouted "You are a devil!" before he died, everyone's respect for Muen completely went up a notch.

Muen cast the 【Mending Charm】 again in front of the veterans.

After confirming that Muen's magical magic could bring this dilapidated ship back to life, the veterans began to help.

They picked up some usable planks and placed them in the gaps on the deck, and then waited for Muen to cast the spell.

With the addition of the veterans, Muen's speed of casting the Mending Charm gradually increased.

After repairing the entire deck of the ship, Muen discovered that his 【Mending Charm】could now be cast silently.

This was the second silent spell he had mastered!

After repairing the deck, Muen began to use the 【Cleaning Charm】to completely clean the blood stains on the deck.

【Clean Sweep】After cleaning the entire ship, Muen mastered another silent spell.

After these tasks were completed, the families from Old Soldier Alley who originally lived on the second floor of the Thorns came to the new ship.

"Cousin Muen, does this ship have a name yet?"

After wandering around this brand-new big ship, Sophia found Muen.

"Grandpa Mimir said that every big ship has its own name, just like all cities and countries."

"Of course, how about Crimson Moon?"

Muen had already thought about naming the ship when he was repairing the entire ship.

The pirates originally called this big black ship "Sea Serpent", but Muen didn't want to use this name with a cruel taste.

Thinking back, it was all because of that irregular Crimson Moon that he went to another world to learn magic, and then he got this ship.

So Muen named the new ship 【Crimson Moon】.

During the post-war cleanup of the Crimson Moon, no treasure left behind by the pirates was found.

This disappointed Gold, who had been thinking about making another fortune.

But Zalan found something related to magicians while rummaging through the pirates' utility room.

A very old 《Alchemy Notes》

"There are also magicians on this pirate ship?"

Muen became suspicious the moment he saw this yellowed record book.

When Muen repaired and cleaned the entire cabin, he didn't find anything related to magic at all.

"No, I asked the pirates, they said that Miles killed a magician a month ago, and he also got a notebook and a box from this magician."

Hearing what Zalan said, Muen was only slightly surprised, and then he figured it out.

The pirate leader's special flintlock gun had been installed on Zalan's body.

If it was this gun, coupled with being caught off guard, then ordinary magicians might really not be able to stop that bullet.

Muen roughly read the notes and found that it recorded the alchemy records of a magician named Fao Holmes.

"Key? Unbeliever?"

From this manual, Muen knew that Fao Holmes wanted to create a magic key, and his identity was actually an unbeliever.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Not for the time being, but the box you just mentioned should contain a key."

While Muen and Zalan were discussing the alchemy notes, Gold had finished dealing with the pirate prisoners,

and returned to the big black ship again.

"This...this..., Your Excellency, are you going to take this ship?"

Seeing that the entire pirate ship had been completely changed in less than half a day, Gold was once again shocked by Muen's magic.

"That's right, is there a problem?"

"No, no, no, how could I have a problem, I just got a key from the pirate leader's neck."

As Gold spoke, he held out a brass-colored key strung with black thread.

Muen just glanced at it and knew that this was exactly the one recorded in the alchemy notes.

"Thank you very much, this is very useful to me."

"Oh, don't say that, if it weren't for you, my three ships might not have been saved."

Gold no longer had his original prestige.

Especially after seeing that Muen had a new ship, he was afraid that this powerful magician would leave alone.

It was still three days away from Vina Islands, and he was originally very confident in this route.

But the appearance of strange pirates made Gold have to think more about the safety of the next voyage. "But Your Excellency, have you thought about what power this ship will use to sail? Will you let my ship tow it, or will you use those slaves?"

When using the 【Fire Starting Charm】to bomb the pirates, all the three-masted sails on the Crimson Moon had been burned down.

Even if Muen wanted to use the 【Mending Charm】, it was impossible.

"I want to temporarily copy the sails on the Thorns with magic, I wonder if it's possible."

"Huh! Just like copying sea charts?"

"That's right."

"Of course, feel free."

As Gold spoke, he looked at the three-masted poles on the Crimson Moon.

"Your Excellency, I have observed that the big sail on the Thorns should be able to be used directly."

With the judgment of Gold, an experienced sailor, Muen's Crimson Moon was now truly capable of sailing at sea.

Of course, there was still a problem to be solved during this period.

The slaves that the pirates called "bugs".

After the battle, Zalan first went to inquire about the information of all the slaves.

Most of these people were adult men, some were ordinary people who had just been robbed by pirates a month ago, and some were aborigines captured by pirates on the island.

But no matter what their identities were, Muen didn't plan to keep them.

Although he successfully counter-killed the pirates this time, the food problem was not completely solved.

Muen didn't plan to learn from the pirates to rob, so keeping the slaves would only be a meaningless waste of food.

After discussing with Zalan, Muen decided to return freedom to all the slaves after arriving at Vina Islands.

But the premise was that all the pirates had to stay in the rowing room honestly for the last three days of the voyage.
