Chapter 256: Prologue to a New Life

When the basket hit the ground, a witch who looked to be about thirty years old with red hair hanging down to her waist stepped out of the basket and stepped forward, "Hello, welcome to Frontier Town, I'm Wendy." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Then she looked at the ashes and smiled happily, "You're here too." ”

She was the witch mentioned by Ash earlier?Sylvie looked at the two thoughtfully, it seemed that they had known each other for a long time.

"Welcome, I'm Anna. Sylvie's eyes lit up with the appearance of the other witch, and her blue eyes, as pure as the water of a lake, were truly remarkable. But what she cares more about is the magic of the other party - huge, rich, and almost flawless. A block of black, white, and gray slowly turned, and even the magic gathered around it was distorted by it.

What an astonishing power? It was the first time Sylvie had seen such oppressive magic.

"Hey, my name is Lightning!" it was the little girl who was flying by the gondola, and Maisie landed on her shoulder.

"Goo!"

After Ash has given a brief introduction to the witches of Sleeping Isle, Wendy smiles and invites everyone to board the hanging basket.

"The huge air bag above the head is called a hot air balloon, and as long as it can provide it with scorching air, it can carry everyone over the mountains to their destination. After a slight pause, she asked Ash, "Aren't you really going to visit the town, and I think Your Highness will want to see you again." ”

"He's not going to welcome someone who is going to poach his witch," Ash smiled, "and you're going to have to take care of these kids." ”

"Yes......" Wendy pursed her lips with a look of regret, "don't worry, I'll treat them well." ”

"Then hurry up," Anna reminded, "and the Distant Lookout is about to take off. ”

Sylvie felt only a slight jolt under her feet, the basket had left the ground, she poked her head out to see Ash and Moriel waving at them, and as the balloon continued to rise, the ground shrank smaller and smaller, and the two of them quickly turned into specks the size of fingernails - no matter what, a new life was about to begin.

Wendy's ability seems to be to control the wind, and the hot air balloon moves inland towards Grey Keep under her control.

It was the first time that Sylvie had seen the earth from the air, and although neither the earth nor the rocks could stop her from exploring, it was a novel experience to be able to see such a large field of vision at once. She tried to summon the Eye of Magic, but the chaos came to her mind like a tidal waveβ€”steep rock walls hidden in the depths of the water, underground rivers connected to the sea, animal bones buried in the dirt, and changes in the rock formations underground...... These images suddenly caused Sylvie to feel a splitting headache, and the magic power in his body dropped sharply. She quickly interrupted her magical eye and sat down on the basket gasping for air.

"Are you alright?" someone asked. She opened her eyes and found that it was none other than Wendy.

"Well, just a little ...... Dizzy. ”

"It's better to take a few deep breaths," Wendy smiled, "and many people feel uncomfortable the first time they get away from the earth." ”

"Thanks, I'm better," Sylvie nodded.

The atmosphere along the way was much more congenial than she had originally expected, and as Ash said, Wendy cared about everyone and didn't discriminate just because they were newcomers. Although Anna doesn't talk much, whenever someone asks her questions, she still answers them seriously. Lightning seems to be very good with Maisie, and has a very lively personality, and from time to time flies into the gondola with fat pigeons to chat with everyone, and does not think of himself as a stranger at all.

With Maisie as the link between the two sides, the other four gradually relaxed, and asked Lightning about the situation in the border town. Later, the little girl simply hovered by the hanging basket and told everyone the story of the town's fight against evil beasts and invaders, as well as the incredible inventions of His Royal Highness the Prince, which stunned everyone.

It didn't take long for the hot air balloon to reach the castle.

Judging by its size alone, this town does live up to the word frontier, small and remote, less than a third of the size of Sleepy Island. However, there are many townspeople, whether in the central square, outside the city walls, or on the banks of the river, you can see crowds of people everywhere. They ran back and forth, converging into a surging stream.

The hot air balloon landed directly in the courtyard of the castle, and as soon as he stepped out of the hanging basket, a roar suddenly sounded, and Sylvie, who was caught off guard, was taken aback and froze in place for a while. The other four were no better, and Honey even flipped back into the basket, baring half of her head and asking, "What happened?"

Wendy couldn't help but laugh, "Don't worry, this is His Highness playing a cannon salute to welcome you." ”

Walking through the greenery of the corridor and into the castle hall, Sylvie finally met Tilly's brother, who was sitting on the main seat of the hall, looking a little similar to Her Royal Highness the Five Princesses, with the same gray hair, no extra pendants on his body, and a relaxed and natural expression. Although his face is far less pleasing to the eye than that of Master Tilly, he has a calm temperament that attracts everyone's attention just by sitting there.

"Welcome to Borderland, I'm Lord of the West, Roland Wimbleton, and you already know my name. He got up and laughed, "Tilly Wimbledon is my sister, so you don't need to feel inhibited, just treat the town as a sleeping island." ”

Sylvie couldn't help but unfold her magic eyes, and then couldn't help but be stunned.

The expected darkness did not appear, the other party did not even wear the Divine Punishment Stone, and there was no trace of magical activity on his body - what he was originally like, and what he still looked like in his real vision. Neither disguise nor control, which can only show that the man in front of him is Roland himself.

Among the countermeasures that Master Tilly gave her, there was only one sentence for not finding any clues: send the news back to the Sleeping Island.

......

What Roland said next, she didn't listen to it at all, her head was a mess. In order to fulfill Master Tiri's request, she even thought of the words and expressions she used in the negotiations, and even prepared to be imprisoned, but she didn't expect it to come in handy at all. Next, just wait until the end of the month and let Maisie bring this information back to complete the mission.

But how is this possible? A true nobleman who is determined to protect a witch and become the leader of the Mutual Aid Society?

The psychological gap made Sylvie a little dazed, and it wasn't until His Highness arranged a sleeping room for the night that she came back to her senses.

"That's pretty much it, the witch's house isn't finished yet, so you'll have to stay in the castle for the time being, sharing a room with the other witches. Of course, this will also make it easy for you to quickly integrate into the life of the town. "There's a sumptuous dinner waiting for you tonight, so enjoy it as an official welcome to Frontier Town." ”

Sylvie breathed a sigh of relief as she was finally arranged to live with Wendy, and judging from this brief contact, Wendy was indeed a good senior, and it should be easier to get along. However, in addition to her, there seems to be a witch named Nightingale living in the room.

Hopefully, the other person is also an easy person to get along with, Sylvie couldn't help but think. (To be continued.) )
