Wizard's Journey

Chapter 281 The Wedding (Part 2)

The city of Bisel was brightly decorated, filled with joy and happiness, and the residents who came and went all wore sweet smiles.

Three days ago, when Lord Raffi accepted Knight Green's marriage proposal in front of all the residents of Bisel City and announced that a grand wedding would be held in a week, the whole town was in an uproar.

Regret, doubt, blessings, surprise...

However, after a series of dissenting voices, the residents of the small town immediately began to make preparations in earnest.

The residents were going to arrange a wedding for Raffi, who had been the lord of the small town since his great-grandfather's generation, and give their beloved lord a wonderful wedding.

For these common people, their understanding of the relationship between knights and wizard apprentices was limited to descriptions in biographical novels: knights were brave, fearless, and loyal, while wizards were mysterious, learned, and wise.

To the residents of the small town, Green and Raffi's wedding was the perfect combination of courage, fearlessness, loyalty, mystery, erudition, and wisdom.

As for the power levels of wizards and knights?

These are things that ordinary people on East Coral Island simply cannot access.

However, the atmosphere inside Moon Bay Tavern was somewhat different.

Ab wiped the liquor dripping from his lips, his cheeks flushed, and slammed his fist on the table, his voice trembling with regret as he cried, "Perfect Lord Raffi, why did you agree to this new Knight Grin's proposal? Why!?"

Beside him, the Stuart Knight Commander patted Ab on the back, his cheeks also flushed and showing signs of being seven or eight parts drunk.

"Ab, ask around in Bisserl. Which unmarried man doesn't consider the city lord his goddess? Hahaha..."

belch……

After letting out a burp, Stuart continued, "But you must understand, when we were children, Lady Raffi was already such a perfect woman. First and foremost, she was a great lord of the city; secondly, she was a noble wizard; and only lastly, she was a woman."

On the other side, the burly Gaia Knight Commander gulped down a large bowl of wine, wiped his mouth with his hand, and handed a bowl to Ab.

"Abd, you still haven't figured it out?"

After clinking glasses with Abu, who was drinking alone, Gaia downed another bowl of wine, grabbed a handful of braised beef, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it heartily.

"Don't let my usual slowness fool you, I actually see things more clearly than any of you right now. Others may not know, but you all know how powerful the legendary knight is, right? But so what? He was still defeated by that Green with a single sword strike. Three months, this Green suddenly appeared and proposed to the city lord, proposing to a great wizard! And what happened? City Lord Raffi agreed without even thinking."

Gaia shook his head and downed another bowl of wine.

Ab's head was spinning for a moment, and he looked at Gaia in disbelief, saying, "You mean...?"

"Hmph, I think this Green is most likely a wizard, or a high-level legendary knight with modified bloodline," Gaia said.

"Abu, come here, let's drink. It's time you found a wife, so she can teach you how to be a man and stop you from looking so absent-minded all the time."

Finally, after saying this, Uno, whose hair and beard were somewhat gray, offered another bowl of wine...

…………

East Coral Island, a desolate sea area where the sun sets.

The waves crash against the rocks, and there stands a hundred-meter-high rock that has stood firm despite being eroded by the waves for thousands of years. The warm sea breeze of the evening caresses the body.

On the distant beach, crabs and shellfish are swept ashore by the waves, creating a beautiful sight with their vibrant colors.

At the top of the towering reef, Raffi leaned lazily against Green's embrace, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the warm sea breeze caressing her body in the sunset, quietly feeling Green's heartbeat behind her, a warm and romantic scene.

"Lafite".

Green whispered in Raphael's ear.

Raffi tilted his head back, opened his eyes, glanced lazily at Green, and pouted, saying in a cloying voice, "Hmm?"

"I love you." Green said with utmost seriousness and focus, looking directly into Raffi's eyes, as if he wanted to forever remember this moment in his mind.

With a happy, sweet smile, Raffi closed her eyes and curled up in Green's arms like a kitten, a beautiful curve on her lips.

"I love you too."

Ugh...

Several seagulls flew past the two humans, watching them curiously but not daring to disturb them. They circled twice and flew away.

Sunset, seagulls, waves crashing against a lone reef, two people cuddling together—what a poetic and romantic scene!

Green watched quietly as Raffi was enjoying herself in a warm and sweet moment. Although he also had a sweet smile on his lips, there was an undisguised sadness deep in his eyes.

Is this the painful tragedy of a higher life form falling in love with a lower life form?

Raffi's wizard apprentice lifespan is limited to a little over ten years; her soul has already decayed and withered.

For Green, a mere decade or so was but a fleeting moment, but for Rafi, it was enough to allow him to fully enjoy a lifetime of sweetness.

but……

How should I spend the next few thousand years of my life?

This fleeting sweetness will forever remain an indelible sorrow in my heart throughout the long years to come…

The deeper one loves, the more one falls into despair, and the more one becomes unable to extricate oneself, resulting in greater suffering. This is probably why many wizards do not choose to unite with other wizards to try to reproduce.

However, Green has no regrets.

Even if there are thousands or tens of thousands of years of life ahead, so what? The beautiful moments of love and ignorance that we once shared will never return.

Everyone is maturing, concealing themselves with stiff and indifferent faces, as if using the outermost and hardest part of the rings of time to wrap up their innocent and beautiful memories of the past.

This is truly a cruel way of growing up.

We can never go back to those carefree, dreamy years of youth.

At that time, the world seemed to consist only of a small part of what was in front of us. We were full of confidence in the future and believed that we could control the whole world and change it to an infinitely better state.

He was filled with endless sorrow, but Green would not utter a word of it.

At this moment, all Green could do was cherish the beauty of his life to the fullest and turn his love into a light kiss on the forehead of the person he loved in his arms.

Time continues to flow slowly, unshaken by individual will, becoming an eternal moment.

…………

Tiger Wolf Mountain.

After being wiped out by the Knights Guard of Bisel, only one of the nine bandit leaders remains, and he can only gather a dozen or so bandits, all of whom are wounded and in a sorry state.

The current state of the Nine Wolves Gang is truly appalling.

This once-powerful bandit gang that dominated Tiger Wolf Mountain is now nothing more than a band of outlaws, awaiting their demise.

Hu Chida looked at the secret room and saw that the wealth accumulated by the Nine Wolves Gang over the years had been completely emptied by the knight guards of that despicable Lord Rafi of Bisser City. He was filled with despair and endless hatred, and he was in utter despair.

"what……"

Hu Chida roared and howled, covering his eyes with his remaining arm and crying out in pain. The other bandits and henchmen also couldn't help but shed tears.

The Nine Wolves Gang will never appear again...

To the outsiders of East Coral Island, the Nine Wolves Gang was synonymous with evil, scum, and filth, but to these bandits, the Nine Wolves Gang was their home, their everything from birth to death.

Just then, several bandit henchmen rushed in from outside the secret room, stammering, "Witch... Wizard!"

Ok?

Before Hu Chida could react, a person appeared out of thin air in the hall, and a terrifying pressure descended upon him.

Beneath a tall, grey hat, a pair of antlers grow from his head. His eyes resemble those of a cat, with pupils that sometimes dilate and sometimes shrink. A faint, ethereal grey aura emanates from beneath his wide wizard robes.

The wizard floated silently in the air, his feet a meter off the ground, surveying everyone in the hall.

"Where are the descendants of Gutuwuganos?" The wizard's voice echoed throughout the hall, as if a colossal creature were murmuring in a confined space.

A wizard? Gu Tuwu Jialuosi?

Hu Chida, who reacted very quickly, immediately thought of the Left Ear Bear!

Could it be that this great wizard is the same great wizard that Zuo Erxiongqi mentioned who wanted to sign a mysterious contract with him?

Immediately, overwhelmed by hatred, Hu Chida prostrated himself on the ground, crying out in despair.

"Great Wizard, a few days ago, Lord Raffi of Bisserl, a wizarding apprentice who had graduated from the wizarding academy, demanded that Garedon, who had already risen to the rank of Legendary Knight, submit to her in the name of ruling the Eastern Coral Island. Garedon informed Raffi that he had already signed a contract with a wizard, which the evil Raffi considered disrespectful, and she cruelly murdered Garedon..."
