Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 96 Gold's Secret
After Moon showed his strength twice, Gold made an offer that Zalan could not refuse.

In addition to ensuring that Moon has a separate room to rest.

Gold also promised to vacate the first floor of the Thorn's cabin, which was originally the dormitory for senior crew members, for the families of the veterans in the alley to live in.

The captain even promised to provide free meals for eighty people during the voyage.

Under these conditions that far exceeded expectations, Zalan readily agreed with Gold to set off in two days.

"How did you make this nautical chart?"

After leaving the dock, Zalan carefully checked the new nautical chart, but did not find anything abnormal.

"This is a spell I learned recently."

Hearing Moon say this, Zalan became even more curious.

He already knew that Moon had learned magic during those three minutes of disappearance.

[But can you do so much in three minutes? ]

After this idea came to mind, Zalan became extremely curious about the way Moon learned magic.

Especially Moon's ability to produce a new copy of the sea chart made Zalan both confused and surprised.

Because he learned about the existence of court mages and spellcasters during the war, Zalan has always believed that magicians should exist for war.

But now, every time Moon shows his magic, it seems to just make life more convenient.

However, from this, Zalan could also tell that the environment in which Moon learned magic was not very dangerous, which made him feel a lot more at ease.

"By the way, don't you think Gold's offer is too good?"

Moon didn't care much about the nautical chart. In his opinion, the captain of the Thorn needed more attention due to his abnormal attitude.

Especially after Moon revealed the [Copying Spell], Gold not only agreed to provide food and lodging.

He also wanted to recruit Moon to escort the goods on board.

Of course, the price Gold offered was also very generous.

As long as Moon agrees to go out to sea with the ship every time, he will be rewarded with one hundred gold coins.

If one hundred gold coins were converted into Moon's income at the farm, it would take him a full 100 years to earn that much.

"Gold's attitude is actually quite normal. You know, you're the king of rats now."

Zalan's words made Moon a little uncomfortable, although he knew that the mouse Zalan was talking about was the magician.

"I think it would be better if you addressed me as Your Excellency."

Moon's answer made Zalan laugh happily.

Ever since he dealt with Night Owl, he found that Moon seemed to have become more mature.

"Okay, Your Excellency, the Honorable Magician, Gold is actually a relatively strong sea rat, and these three ships are the territory of this sea rat."

When Zalan said this, Moon began to understand a little.

If the magician is the king of mice, all mice should be loyal to the king and pay tribute to him.

Gold is equivalent to a small leader among the mice, and in comparison, he must offer more as a tribute.

"Well, although what you said is unpleasant to hear, it seems that it would be a good idea if this sea rat could send all of us to the Vena Islands."

Moon quickened his pace as he spoke, and Zalan hurried to catch up again.

"Don't worry, sir. Judging from the fact that Gold can produce such a detailed sea chart, you can tell that this sea rat is quite capable."

"Okay, he's really strong, but what do you want this sea chart for?"

Seeing Zalan holding the nautical chart tightly, Moon asked curiously.

"Of course, it's to find a way for everyone to survive."

Hearing Zalan say this, Moon said nothing, but just stared at him waiting for what to say next.

"Well, this war will definitely last a long time, just like the Gracia Federation's War of Independence and War of Sovereignty, both lasted for more than ten years, and this time will definitely be no exception."

"So the purpose of getting the sea chart is to find a place that's actually suitable for living?"

"That's right!"

"Although the Maynila Empire is well prepared this time, the top leaders of the Federation will certainly not sit idly by. The war will inevitably be very brutal, and all we can do is to ensure that these people can safely pass through this period." Moon did not know more about the analysis of the war situation than Zalan.

But the fact that the war would last for ten years still made Moon a little unbelievable.

At Hogwarts, Moon only needs seven years to graduate.

If calculated based on this time, the war in the Federation might not have ended by the time Moon graduated.

"Luckily, Gold agreed to provide food and lodging after seeing your magic, so we can leave more food for Neil and the others."

Zalan once explained the military system of the Gracia Federation to Moon.

The federal regular army provides food and lodging, but temporarily recruited militiamen must provide their own food, weapons, and equipment before joining the regular army.

For the veterans in the alley, they have weapons and equipment, but food is now very difficult to obtain.

Although Neil received the news early and started storing grain, due to the limited funds everyone had, the grain they bought could not last more than half a year.

Now that the weather is getting colder, the price of food is ridiculously high.

So Gold's promise to provide food and lodging was really helpful this time.

When Moon and Zalan returned to Veteran Alley, there was also a discussion about them on the Thorn.

As the first mate of the Thorn, Karen Ruiz can be regarded as Gold's most capable assistant.

Because of this, Karen was in charge of the Thorn, the largest of the three ships.

"Captain, are we treating that brat too well?"

In Karen's opinion, they should have been able to earn more this time.

Because of the coming of war, many people bought their tickets and wanted to leave.

The space on the first floor of the cabin has been sold for fifty gold coins.

And now such an expensive seat is provided free of charge to eighty unrelated people, plus free food.

So after this trip, they will almost lose 5,000 gold coins.

"Kid! Karen, when did you become so arrogant? Can't you see that this is a powerful magician?"

While Moon cast the spell on the boat, only Zalan and Gold stood by.

First mate Karen only came to the deck after the crew fell into the water, so he did not see clearly what happened.

"I know he's a magician, but this price is too..."

"Stop talking. You only saw the crew members being cursed, but you didn't notice that the magician instantly made seven people lose their ability to fight in just a moment."

"A moment? No way!"

"Humph! Do you think my eyes can be wrong?"

"No, no, why would I question you?"

Karen looked a little flustered when she saw Gold's expression turn stern.

Having followed Gerd for fifteen years, he knew very well that it was with these eyes that his captain led the fleet out of danger time and time again.

"Although this magician is young, I suspect there must be a powerful magician or mage behind him."

Hearing what Gold said, Karen's eyes widened instantly.

Great magician, mage.

These words are just names in legends.

"Captain, if this magician is really that powerful, can he help us get rid of those sea monsters? We can also find that place."

When Gold heard Karen mention the fleet's secret again, his expression instantly turned cold.

"Don't mention this matter casually. Everyone should keep their mouths shut and not leak any information to the outside world."

"Oh well."

"Also, I don't want the person who just fell into the water and said it was a mermaid to see the sun tomorrow."
