The Bizarre Wizarding World-Chapter 158 - 139 Temporary Stay and Gratitude

Approaching, Colin's eyes were met with a half-person-sized clump of charred embers.

It was the remains of the multi-eyed arthropod monster after it had been burned by flames.

It seemed that the burning had been too thorough, and despite Colin's repeated examinations, he was not able to glean any useful information.

He stood up and once again waved his scepter.

Swish—

A glow from the Detect Evil witchcraft shone from the tip of the dark gold-patterned scepter, spreading rapidly in all directions. With his full magical powers, the light soon covered the entire theater.

Colin carefully scanned the surroundings, but the empty theater revealed no further traces of anything abnormal.

Still not reassured, he waved the Foolishness Scepter once again, slightly increasing the cost.

The enhanced Detect Evil witchcraft swept over the entire theater.

The results remained unchanged; there were still no signs of anything abnormal.

Colin pondered for a moment, then closed his eyes again.

The sense of discomfort that had originally lingered in his soul had also vanished without a trace.

It seemed... the incident at the theater had been resolved.

At that moment.

Tap tap tap—

Suddenly, orderly footsteps resounded from the theater corridor, mixed with the sounds of metal armor colliding.

The next second, Hayden and the commander of the Yili Knight Order led a squad of knights running out from the passage.

"Sir Colin," Hayden said, scanning the area and feeling somewhat relieved.

He then spoke to Colin, "His Majesty the King has ordered us to come and assist."

Although he said this, Hayden knew in his heart that his men were more likely sent as cannon fodder.

But it seemed that the situation in the theater had already been brought under control.

"The monster has been taken care of; clean up the battlefield," Colin directed.

Upon hearing this, Hayden completely relaxed.

"Yes, sir!" he answered, bowing his head, then turning to walk towards the commander of the knights, presumably to delegate tasks.

Meanwhile, Colin quickly headed towards the theater exit.

Since his arrival at Blackstone Island, he had encountered countless incidents, many of which were inexplicable.

Like the incident at the Yili Kingdom theater, if it could no longer be detected with current methods and his strength, then lingering here would be a needless worry, serving no significant purpose.

Rather, it was better to hasten his travel to the Holy Flame Kingdom and fulfill the promise he made to Erica as soon as possible, to head towards the jurisdiction of the Wizard Alliance.

Miracle City... He had long been looking forward to it.

Exiting the theater, Wild was anxiously waiting outside. Seeing Colin emerge, Wild's eyes lit up with joy, and he quickly greeted,

"Sir Colin!"

"The situation inside...?"

"It has been resolved," Colin nodded and then added, "At least, with my current methods, I can no longer detect anything out of the ordinary."

Wild nodded, finally allowing his expression to relax.

He then said, "Sir Colin, the Yili Kingdom will remember your assistance today."

Colin observed Wild's face, suddenly smiled, and said, "Just don't blame me for killing your Yili Kingdom's Sacrificial Wizard."

Wild's expression shifted, and he replied with an awkward smile, "Of course not."

Colin let the matter go with just a smile and continued, "Tell me, what was the better way to travel to the Holy Flame Kingdom you mentioned before?"

Wild collected himself and, glancing around, said, "It's bitterly cold outside; how about we move to a more comfortable spot in the Palace where I can..."

"No need," Colin cut him off, "I am in a hurry."

Wild paused, then went on to explain, "Sir Colin, this is the situation."

"The better method I mentioned is that, by coincidence, a merchant caravan's Flying Airship will be passing through the Yili Kingdom tomorrow for supplies, and their next route happens to go by the Holy Flame Kingdom."

"If I remember correctly, wizards have previously taken flights with this caravan's Flying Airship. As a wizard, you should also be able to board their Flying Airship directly with a Magic Stone and travel to the Holy Flame Kingdom."

"If you can board the Flying Airship... with its speed, we should arrive at the Holy Flame Kingdom by tomorrow evening."

Wild smiled, "If you want to take the merchant caravan's Flying Airship, then you will have to wait until tomorrow morning."

"So... if you would like, you may continue to stay at the Palace tonight."

Colin did not reply but first asked, "Are you certain the caravan will arrive in the Yili Kingdom on time tomorrow?"

Wild nodded without hesitation, "For nearly ten years, every three months, they have never changed their schedule."

In fact, he wasn't sure if that Flying Airship belonged to a merchant caravan or what it was for...

But indeed, it had arrived punctually every three months, and wandering wizards had indeed hitched rides using a Magic Stone.

However, to be on the safe side, Wild added, "If by some chance the Flying Airship does not arrive on schedule tomorrow... the Yili Royal Family owns a batch of Demon Beast hybrid horses. I am willing to gift two of them to you, sir.

With their speed, heading to the Holy Flame Kingdom would be at least two or three days faster than riding the normal horses previously provided."

Colin nodded slightly in response.

"So Sir Colin, will you stay at the Palace tonight?" Wild continued to inquire.

Naturally, he wished for Colin to stay at the Palace... or at the very least to remain in the Yili Kingdom tonight.

On one hand, he wanted to cultivate a good relationship with Colin, and on the other, he wanted to see if Chaniuka City... would continue to experience anomalies this evening.

After a pause for thought, Colin nodded, "That's fine."
