Wizard: I crush legends with martial arts.

As Edson said, the dragon traversed the orc kingdom of Bozak and flew over the mountain range in less than two days.

The cold wind was already very close.

Sera, however, became uneasy, as she was on this trip to meet Alphonse's mother.

Although she showed great courage in love, she was still a little nervous at this moment.

She didn't know if Alphonse's mother, Lady Mary, would mind her race or her skin color.

Alphonse could only gently hold her small hand and offer a few words of comfort.

Whom I marry is my own decision, and my mother probably won't interfere too much. She just hopes that I can get married soon and have children.

Before entering the Frostwind Territory, Alphonse didn't forget to have Sera change out of her sexy and glamorous outfit and into something more conservative, covering her skin a little more completely.

It wasn't because she was meeting her mother and needed to appear dignified; it was simply because the outfit was too revealing. A woman should only be seen by herself; there was no need to show it to outsiders.

The town of Coldwind Territory came into view, and the changes in the town surprised Alphonse. What was once a barren town had now become like a new city.

The city is now several times the size of the original town. Even the main roads that run through the houses have been widened and paved with cement, allowing three or four horse-drawn carriages to pass side by side.

Outside the city, there were more than two brick kilns, with tall chimneys emitting wisps of black smoke.

A dyeing workshop was also built along the river, where many women were busy working.

Now in the city, you can see ordinary people walking through the streets and alleys with smiles on their faces, and some are even riding two-wheeled vehicles.

What caught Alphonse's attention most was that on the other side of the city, countless workers were laying railway sleepers, and houses were already arranged in neat rows like train platforms.

Back then, I only proposed the idea of ​​the magic train to Master Camille at the Alchemy Academy. Could it be that he has already created it and promoted it nationwide?

So that's why a railway was built in Coldwind Territory?

Edson's speed was too great for Alphonse to notice; in the blink of an eye, he had already soared across the sky above the city and only stopped in front of the castle.

His body was contracting violently, but Alphonse and the others didn't fall into freefall. Magic created a gentle current that carried them down slowly.

The instant he landed, Edson transformed into human form, a bard holding a harp and wearing a small top hat with a white feather in it.

However, the scene in the garden in front of the castle surprised Alphonse.

Mrs. Mary, the mother, was sitting at a round table, sipping her tea, while Monica stood beside her serving her.

Monica was no longer dressed as a maid, but instead wore a noblewoman's dress, though her duties seemed unchanged.

Mia sat at the other end, still dressed in a neutral style, wearing a crisp moon-white coat, paired with brown riding breeches and boots, with a cold expression on her face.

If it were just that, it wouldn't have surprised Alphonse.

Because a young man was sitting at the round table.

He had a handsome face, wore luxurious and exquisite clothes, and his hair was meticulously combed with hair oil, with a small tail tied at the back of his neck. His eager gaze would occasionally glance at Mia.

I've only been gone for a little over six months, and already some pretty boy is trying to steal my girlfriend?

Alphonse was furious.

He didn't care that Mia wasn't yet his woman, and strode over.

As soon as Edson's concealment spell was dispelled, Mia sensed several powerful auras appearing in the courtyard. This made her wary, and she abruptly stood up.

In an instant, he saw clearly the four people and one wolf that seemed to have come out of thin air, especially the one who walked over, who was none other than the dead guy he had been thinking about.

He blurted out, "Alphonse?"

"Alphonse, my precious son! You're finally back!" Lady Mary's eyes were already brimming with tears. She stood up so quickly that she knocked the round table in front of her over, and couldn't help but let out a soft cry.

The slight pain couldn't hide her excitement.

"Mother, Mia, I'm back!" Alphonse greeted her with a smile.

"It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back!" Mrs. Mary pressed her hand to her chest, her heart pounding as if it were about to burst out of her chest. Seeing her beloved son again filled her with boundless joy.

As they were speaking, Alphonse had already approached.

"Mia, I brought you a very precious gift."

Alphonse removed a spatial ring from his finger, ignoring the young nobleman who had also stood up, and extended his hand toward Mia.

As soon as he said it, Alphonse realized something was wrong. Mia had a gift, but what about his mother?

Having fought my way out of Fantalia, I had visited the territory of Sarras before, but I hadn't thought about buying any local specialties or souvenirs. I figured I should also give my mother a gift.

They were all blinded by jealousy!

Fortunately, the spatial ring also contained various magical ornaments obtained from the collection of the earth dragon Fiar. Even without being filled with magic, they were still quite attractive pieces of jewelry.

Mia pursed her pink lips. This jerk, does he not know what it means to give a girl a ring?

However, she did not refuse, but raised her left hand and placed it on Alphonse's outstretched palm.

Alphonse gently took Mia's hand, but didn't dare to put the spatial ring on Mia's ring finger. He simply put the ring on her middle finger.

Mia was somewhat confused about her own feelings; she felt a strange sense of loss that the ring wasn't on her ring finger.

Seeing the two strangely shaped yet strikingly beautiful women following Alphonse, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

My feelings were even more complicated.

Releasing Mia's hand, Alphonse quickly said to Lady Mary, "Mother, I also brought you a gift!"

After saying that, he wiped his hand and took out a bracelet inlaid with a blood-red gem from his spatial ring, held it in both hands and handed it to his mother.

"How beautiful!" Mrs. Mary exclaimed, and immediately slipped the bracelet onto her wrist.

She likes whatever her son gives her; the thought itself is enough.

Vitina stepped forward at the opportune moment and respectfully placed a finely carved black wooden box before Madame Mary. "Your Excellency, good day! This is a gift from His Holiness the Pope!"

Then, he gestured to the side, "This is our Pope's sister, Miss Sera."

Sera quickly bowed slightly and obediently gave a greeting.

Mrs. Mary had already noticed the two women accompanying her son. Although she found it strange that one had horns on her head and the other had dark gray skin, they were both quite attractive, especially with their fertile figures.

Although she was a peasant woman and not very knowledgeable, she could tell that Sera was of high status.

It's very possible that they also have a relationship with their son.

"Please thank your Pope for me." Lady Mary smiled kindly, but couldn't help glancing at Mia. (End of Chapter)
