The Bizarre Wizarding World

Whoo——!

The Grey Whale's horn bellowed as it slowly sailed into the Tamanwei Harbor.

This was the largest harbor belonging to the Jiage Kingdom.

And the Jiage Kingdom was a Wizard Kingdom under the rule of Merredith City.

The Siya Continent was vast, and although half of its territories were not rich in magical power, hosting only some mundane kingdoms, the remaining areas mostly fell under the dominion of the Wizard Alliance.

Nine cities known as the Miracle Cities were evenly distributed across this region.

Of these, only the region governed by Merredith City in the southeast was closest to the Southern Sea Domain.

Therefore, ships coming from the Southern Sea Domain mostly chose to dock at ports under the jurisdiction of Merredith City.

Most of the passengers would switch to land transportation at this point and continue towards their destinations.

Colin was no exception.

At the moment, he stood in his room, looking around to make sure he hadn't left anything behind.

Having checked everything and confirmed that all was packed, Colin sat on his meditation mat, exhaled a breath of stale air, and summoned Golden Paper.

Pale golden particles converged in front of him, and an ancient sheet of golden paper that hovered between reality and illusion slowly materialized.

[Limit Breaking Point: 0]

'At most another week, and the Yi Guang Breathing Method will reach its Limit Breaking again,' Colin thought to himself after quickly scanning the Golden Paper in front of him.

His progress as a wizard had already reached First Rank Intermediate Wizard 48/100, in just under twenty days, almost halfway there.

If he could maintain this pace and continue to strengthen his foundation, in another month, he might likely attempt to break through to the Second Rank Wizard!

Of course, that was an ideal scenario.

In reality, the higher the wizard's rank, the slower the progress tends to be, especially as he hadn't yet acquired the knowledge to advance to the Second Rank Wizard.

The path to advancement might require some more time...

The bustling Tamanwei Harbor was both a trade and transport hub.

Having disembarked from the Grey Whale, Colin soon boarded a grey-blue Flying Airship bound for Merredith City.

Half a day later.

Merredith City.

Colin stepped off the grey-blue Flying Airship.

Here was a vast square space reserved for the docking of the Flying Airships, surrounded by a ring of low walls.

Walking down the gangway of the Flying Airship, one could easily see the layered variety of buildings outside, over the walls.

There were single-story buildings, towers, and castles.

'It seems, this is my second visit to Merredith City...' Colin thought as he walked out to the unfamiliar surroundings and felt a surge of emotion.

His first arrival at the Wizard Alliance was nothing if not fraught with difficulty.

But in search of rejoining a School and finding methods to advance as a First Rank Wizard, he hadn't even taken the time to linger here, heading directly for the Transmission Array.

"Of course... there's no spare time for sightseeing now either," Colin said, with a hint of a smile on his lips.

Whether it was to gain the knowledge to advance to the Second Rank Wizard or to save Instructor Atbolde, he needed to return to Neustadt City, back to the Tin Saint School, as soon as possible.

Nevertheless, he had grown more experienced.

Walking along, Colin could clearly tell that despite both being among the nine great Wizard Cities, Merredith City and Neustadt City had distinct differences.

Whether it was the architectural style, the clothing, or even the street food, the differences were significant... and it seemed even more prosperous.

The buildings here were more brightly colored, the styles more diverse, the attire as well; meanwhile, the street food seemed to focus more on seafood.

"I wonder how Erica's family is doing now..."

Looking at all this, Colin suddenly pondered.

"Colin... sir?"

As luck would have it, just then, a hesitant voice came from the side.

Colin turned his head to look, and a familiar face appeared before him—it was indeed Eliel!

"Lord Colin."

The tall Knight Burns was also by her side, and at that moment, he respectfully bowed and greeted.

"Eliel..." Colin first paused, then a look of pleasant surprise spread across his face, "Long time no see."

He looked Eliel over from top to toe.

More than a year had passed, and this petite girl had changed significantly from how he remembered her.

She had become... more like her sister, Erica.

Her shoulder-length hair had been cut to short tresses that barely covered her ears, just like Erica's, the emerald eyes less vulnerable, more resolute.

She wore a white Wizard Robe threaded with gold, bearing the badge of the Viting School.
