Chapter 131 Silver Sea
After answering the questions of a wild wizard through the Book of Wisdom, Roland ended his entertainment time for the day, closed the Book of Wisdom and the Grimoire.
He looked at Hela who had just pushed the door open, and spoke casually as he put the magic book into the space bracelet.
"Is the matter done?"
Hela nodded and replied.
"Well, according to your instructions, I bought two tickets for the ferry whose destination is closest to Ginza."
As she spoke, Hela took out two pieces of paper from her pocket.
"What time is the boat today?"
Roland stood up and asked Hela as he walked towards the door.
"The boat will leave in two hours."
Hela replied as she followed Roland.
"Ah."
Roland nodded slightly, and then the two of them walked out of the hotel.
After walking out of the door, Roland saw the sea level illuminated by the sun.
"how do you feel?"
As Roland followed Hela toward the nearby port, he casually asked about Hela's feelings.
".No feeling."
Hela pursed her lips and spoke in a low voice.
"Really? So, do you want to continue?"
Roland said casually.
"Ah."
Hela nodded, indicating that she would continue.
After leaving the Tower of Truth and obtaining intelligence from the Adventurer's Association, Roland planned his next itinerary.
Roland would definitely eat the kingdom heritage of Donnar.
Rather than waiting for the Green Tide to completely rule Donnar and then dig it out and use it as waste paper, it would be better to give it to Roland cheaply. At worst, when Roland has finished eating up the inheritance and is ready to leave Donnar, he can make a copy of all the information and give it to the coalition to help them complete the inheritance.
Of course, Roland was not in a hurry to dig. Instead of going to the front line of East Nar to be a line-holding baby, Roland might as well hang out in West Nar.
After Roland arranged the itinerary, Hela took the initiative to make a request to Roland.
Let Roland handle all the trivial matters that were usually handled easily. After what happened to Sofia, Hela realized that she didn't want to live in the comfort zone provided by Roland forever. She wanted to improve her living skills.
Roland naturally would not refuse, and happily handed everything over to her in one go.
Roland left everything to Hela, including route planning, purchasing daily necessities, hotel accommodation, asking for directions and buying tickets.
Although I was not very skilled, and there were some minor problems, such as not considering obstacles in route planning, buying too little or too much daily necessities, reading the map incorrectly and taking the wrong road, etc.
However, these are minor issues that only took a little more time, and overall Hella was able to handle these minor issues normally. I want to take back my previous comments.
Roland looked at the ship in front of him and complained silently in his heart.
How can you find a ship at random? There are so many ships in the whole port. How can you find this one accurately?
In front of Roland and Hela was a relatively tall ship. From the outside, the ship in front of them seemed to be not much different from the nearby ships.
However, with Roland's rich experience, he still saw that something was wrong with the ship in front of him.
Looking at the crew members on the ship who were performing routine maintenance on several elemental cannons, Roland saw the hidden symbols on their sleeves.
According to Roland's research on the silver noble emblem, if he was not mistaken, the symbol must at least be that of a count.
So, this is the Earl's ship?
Roland used magic to secretly scan the entire ship and confirmed the situation on board. It was full of low-level extraordinary people and there were no special extraordinary materials.
It seems that the problem is not serious. It is just a noble smuggling ship disguised as an ordinary merchant ship.
After confirming that there were no powerful people around, Roland followed Hela onto the boat.
Although in order to avoid trouble, Hela only used the second-level spellcaster badge when buying the ticket, a transcendent is a transcendent, and even if he is a wild wizard, he is a high-ranking figure in the Silver Empire society.
Therefore, this ship disguised as an ordinary merchant ship was naturally very welcoming to Roland and Hela, and the best room on the ship was directly given to them.
Roland sat by the window, calmly gazing at the ocean outside.
Silver Sea, this is the name of this sea area.
It’s not because the Silver Sea is full of silver and wealth, but because during the reign of Littorio, the Silver Empire’s rule covered this entire sea area, so it is called the Silver Sea.
Although after the First Silver Civil War, a large number of independent kingdoms broke away from the southern part of the Silver Empire, causing the Silver Empire to lose control over more than half of the Silver Sea in a broad sense, but due to habit and the fact that it was just a name, the name of the Silver Sea has been passed down.
During Littorio's reign, the Silver Sea was actually not taken seriously.
Because on the other side of the Silver Sea, there exists a civilization dominated by jackals.
After Littorio expelled all the Jackals that had invaded the land, the Jackals did not give up, and various Jackal pirates wreaked havoc in the Silver Sea, coming ashore from time to time to annoy the Silver Empire.
The cost for the Silver Empire to control the Silver Sea was so high that the Silver Empire implemented a strict sea ban policy in the Silver Sea, prohibiting anyone from going out to sea.
Of course, in addition to this, the main reason for choosing a sea ban was that the Silver Empire at that time focused its attention on trade in the North Sea.
In the North Sea, the Silver Empire obtained a large amount of extraordinary materials and huge wealth through trade with moon elves, orcs, kobolds, and even dwarves.
So much so that the North Sea was praised by the Sinari people at that time as an ocean flowing with supernatural powers and wealth.
The prosperous maritime trade also means the rampant pirates. As long as you rob a transport ship carrying extraordinary materials, you won’t have to worry about experimental and promotion materials for the next few years or even more than ten years.
Not to mention the wild mages without roots or school, even the mages from a school could not resist such temptation.
Therefore, there are many active pirates in the North Sea, and the average level is also very strong. In the era when piracy was most rampant, low-level extraordinary people could be seen everywhere among the North Sea pirates. There were also many mid-level extraordinary people, and there were even three pirate kings who successfully promoted to high-level extraordinary people.
However, their glory did not last long. Under the joint stranglehold of the Silver Empire and the Moon Elves, the three pirate kings who jumped out were all killed without even struggling. The rampant pirate era also quickly declined under their joint suppression.
However, after Littorio's death, pirates in the North Sea slowly became active again.
However, due to the division of the Silver Empire and the birth and diversion of the Silver Sea trade, the North Sea trade circle, which has seen a rapid decline in trade scale, has lost the soil that nurtured the Golden Age of Pirates, so that now, several mid-level extraordinary pirates can call themselves Pirate Kings in the North Sea.
