The Witcher: Son of the Planes

Chapter 144: Post-event benefits

"Hmm? This is a battle that just ended. Are we late?" Nick said.

"Well, there are traces of fire and ice spells, and there are some broken skeletons in front. They should be undead wizards." Jacob said after looking at it for a while.

"Could it be Colin's family? There should be no other wizards nearby."

"... Hey, it seems that we have to be more careful in the future. Colin is a tough guy. Now his wife has also been promoted. We still have to be careful. I feel that this guy is too cruel."

"What are you afraid of? The three major families jointly maintain the order of Willisel. There is no conflict of interest now. On the contrary, our interests should be consistent. What's more, the law enforcement team is only in the city of Mogwen, and they will not come here. Since there is no clear evidence, it means that they have done a good job. Let's go, let's go, boring." Nick shook his head and left first.

Looking at Nick who left, Jacob stayed for a while.

What did he do? Jacob collected the scattered skeleton fragments on the ground and cast a spell to mess up the traces here before leaving.

Why did he do this? In fact, Jacob didn't want to help Colin, but he and Nick had done similar things before. He didn't want to attract the attention of the law enforcement team because of Colin's carelessness. If he and Nick were involved, it would be a loss.

"Hey, young people are impulsive. The key is that after the impulse, they don't know how to eliminate the traces. It's really reckless. Hey, I, an old man, have to clean up his ass." Jacob sighed.

Not to mention Jacob and Nick's reactions, Colin and Edith, who took a detour, have returned to the wizard tower of Heaton Manor.

"It's pretty smooth. It's a two-on-one fight, and it's successful." Colin said happily.

"We left in a hurry, and the traces at the scene were not completely removed. Is it okay?"

"...Time was a bit tight, and I couldn't care so much at the time, but as long as we are not caught in the act, I think it will be fine. Besides, we are not going to do this again. Even if we are targeted by the law enforcement team, they will not find it."

"I hope so, let's see what we get. Don't take risks for a long time but get nothing. That would be bad."

"Well, this guy is completely gone, and the space ring is still easy to open." As he said that, Colin removed the mark on the space ring, and as his mental power probed into the ring, he immediately sensed all the items in the ring.

"Hey, I'm rich. This guy is definitely not a good person. He is richer than us." Colin smiled a little.

After taking out the various items in the ring, Colin and Edith counted them:

There were seven wizard coin cards (each of which could be exchanged for 10,000 wizard coins), and 7,651 wizard coins; an ancient animal skin book with the title "Guide to the Use of Undead Spells", written by Sandro; "Lich Training Manual"; three bottles of recovery potions, and an amulet with the image of the undead.

Well, Colin and Edith didn't care about the other miscellaneous things that didn't count. The two books and the alchemical item were unexpected gains. The wizard coins were the main reason for Colin's action this time. Fortunately, he successfully achieved his goal.

"What are you going to do?" Edith saw that the money was enough and asked Colin about his itinerary.

"You haven't completely consolidated your realm yet. Besides, I think you still need to observe the reactions of Jacob and Nick. I'll take the opportunity to borrow and repay the money in a few days to see Nick's reaction first."

"Well, that's good. It's not too late to eliminate the hidden dangers in time before leaving."

...

Three days later, Akali Manor.

"Welcome, welcome, Wizard Colin."

"Hello, Wizard Nick, I haven't seen you for a while."

"Yes, come in, please. I have some new port red wine from the Victoria Islands. You can try it and see how it tastes."

"... Victoria Islands? Well, I'll be polite then." Colin was a little happy that he could taste the red wine from his hometown here. He didn't expect that the Lincoln family's red wine was sold here.

"How is it? It's okay. I also drank it once in the city of Megwen by accident. It felt good and the price was moderate. I have placed a long-term order."

"Well, not bad, Wizard Nick, you have good taste." Colin complimented.

"Wizard Colin, what's the matter with you coming here this time?" Nick asked.

"It's like this. I'm very grateful to Wizard Nick for lending me money last time. Recently, my family has returned some money. I have more money on hand, so I naturally have to pay back the money I borrowed from my friend."

"Oh, I'm not in a hurry to use it. Wizard Colin, if you have other uses, use it first. You can pay it back when you have spare money."

"Well, between friends, the main thing is to be sincere. If you borrow, you must pay it back. Since I have it, I will definitely pay it back as soon as possible."

After saying that, Colin took out three wizard currency cards and handed them to Nick.

"It seems that this kid has caught a fat sheep and paid back the money in a short time." Nick thought secretly after taking it.

"It's clear, Wizard Colin."

"Well, thank you again for your strong support last time."

"By the way, Wizard Nick, have you heard any rumors recently?" Colin asked casually.

"Here he comes. This guy can't sit still, haha." Nick laughed in his heart.

"No, there are no rumors, Wizard Colin, have you heard anything?" Nick pretended to be ignorant.

"Oh, I haven't heard of it either. I think as long as there is no problem in Willisel, it will be fine. After all, the stable output of moonlight grass is the key."

"Well, you are right. Everything is for the stability of Willisel."

After Colin and Nick talked nonsense for a while, they left Akali Manor.

Originally, Colin wanted to ask about the clone technique, but the timing was not right. Let's talk about it after returning from Grimman Island.

As for Nick, he may know or not, but since there is no other reaction, this matter is over for him.

After leaving Akali Manor, Colin saw that it was still early, thought about it, and simply went to the Teton family's manor.

Well, the mouth of that old fox also needs to be explored.

"What wind blew Colin the wizard here? Haha, what a rare guest." Jacob said with a smile.

"Of course it is the spring breeze of friendship. I haven't seen Jacob the wizard for a long time. I miss him very much." Colin also replied with a smile.

"Come, sit inside."

"Wizard Colin, do you have anything to say to me?"

"Oh, nothing, I just want to ask Wizard Jacob, have you heard anything recently?"

"What? Nothing, but Wizard Colin has been promoted to the first-level wizard at a young age, and he has a bright future. Of course, there is nothing to say about his strength. It is a good thing for young people to be enterprising, but sometimes it is better to be cautious in doing things. It is not good to be too impetuous. Young people should not be too impetuous." Jacob said meaningfully.

"Oh no, this old guy doesn't know something." Colin was a little anxious in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

"Yeah, I'm not like Wizard Jacob. I've been promoted for a long time, and I don't even have the spirit. Besides, can I still be called a young man if I'm not angry?"

"Well, okay, Wizard Colin, you are right, haha, I'm old." Jacob didn't want to conflict with Colin.

"No, Jacob, you are still very young. You are also a young man. Compared with those demigod wizards on the continent, we are all very young."

"Haha, yes, yes, I can't argue with you. By the way, I have some things here for you." After saying that, Jacob gave Colin a space ring.

After Colin took it, he used his mental power to check it and found a large number of skull fragments inside.

"Thank you, Jacob, for your trouble." Colin stood up and saluted Jacob.

"Well, everything is for the stability of Willisel." Jacob said away from his body.

"Well, everything is for the stability of Willisel. I believe that such things will not happen again in the future. I promise." Colin finally expressed his position.
