I raise elves in Florian

Chapter 269 Golden Land Viezer

“That was a long time ago. After that incident… Gaian started building this bridge after that.”

Frillie briefly told Shi Yichen and the others about what had happened to Gaian, and they expressed their sympathy for Gaian's plight.

The group continued walking and soon came to the monster's lair, with a flock of bird-like monsters flying in the sky.

"Found it, let's begin!"

As she spoke, Frillie took out her wand, and Philon and Shutark also drew their weapons.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The battle ended quickly; all the monsters were killed without Frilian even needing to lift a finger. Philon and Shutal were the ones who took care of them.

And so the group embarked on their journey home.

"You've really been a great help, Shi Yichen, Frilian. Thanks to you, everyone can now travel freely between the two sides of the valley."

Gai Anjiang handed a magic book to Frilian, which contained the life magic he had mentioned earlier.

"Gaian, what are you planning to do next?"

Frilian took the grimoire and looked at Gaian, asking a question.

"I plan to go back to my village to retire."

Gaine said to Frilian.

"Ugh?"

Frilian looked at Gaian with some confusion. If she remembered correctly, Gaian's village had been destroyed by the demons two hundred years ago.

"Frilian, two hundred years is enough time for people to build a new village."

Gaian shook his head helplessly and said to Frilian.

"I see."

Frillie laughed at Gaine's comment.

"Then let's get going."

Frillie turned to look at Shi Yichen and the others and said.

. . . . . .

Northern Plateau.

Vieize region.

Shi Yichen and his group were resting in an open space when a squirrel hopped out and came to Shi Yichen's side. The squirrel was carrying a bag, and Shi Yichen took the letter and started reading it.

"Is it another letter of request from the Continental Magic Association?"

Frilian, leaning against Shi Yichen, looked at the letter in Shi Yichen's hand and asked.

"This time it wasn't Seria who sent it, it was Raelen who sent the request in her personal capacity, the one from that mage who wanted to challenge you to a duel."

Shi Yichen gently rubbed Frilian's little head and said.

"What is the reward?"

Frillie looked at Shi Yichen curiously and asked, "Since you went directly to Shi Yichen, the reward should be quite clear, right?"

"Three magic books. It seems we're definitely taking this commission."

Shi Yichen looked at Frilian, who was leaning against him, and said that Frilian's eyes lit up when she heard that there were three magic books. Frilian was not going to give up the magic books she had obtained.

"Although I hate that guy, as the founder of the Continental Magic Association, you certainly won't let others down."

Frillian looked at Shi Yichen with a righteous expression, making it seem as if Shi Yichen had no choice but to accept the commission.

"You! You can't resist a spellbook, don't you even know where you're headed?"

Shi Yichen placed the letter in his hand into Frilian's hand.

"I see. Most people really wouldn't dare to accept that."

Frilian's expression turned serious as she looked at the destination on the letter; Viez was the place where the Seven Sages of the Seven Deadly Sages, Mahat, was sealed.

"However, with you here, this is not a problem at all."

Frillie hadn't forgotten how Mahat was defeated by Shi Yichen; it was as if Shi Yichen had easily defeated Mahat.

"Let's go! Take Philon and Shutark to broaden their horizons."

As Shi Yichen spoke, he stood up, and Philen and Shutark also began to pack their things before heading to their destination.

. . . . . .

Golden Township.

Vieize.

"An endless expanse of gold! It's so magnificent..."

Shutark was so shocked by the sight before him that his jaw dropped. He had never seen so much gold in his entire life.

Not only was Shutark speechless, but Philen was too. They were truly speechless at the sight before them. It was a real eye-opener for them!

"This is the walled city of Viez. One of the Seven Sages of the Golden Land, Mahat, transformed this tragic city into gold fifty years ago."

Although I had heard rumors about this place, I never imagined that the Continental Magic Association was in charge of managing it.

Frilian looked at the golden city not far away and spoke to Philon and Shutark.

"I never expected it to appear here. I thought it had run back to the demon territory."

Shi Yichen looked at the golden city not far away. Through the barrier, she could sense Mahat's aura wandering through the city.

"That means Mahat is trapped in this barrier that shrouds the Golden Land."

After hearing what Shi Yichen said, Frilian understood.

Just then, Duncan walked up from behind.

"I didn't expect to see you here. This mission is to assist the barrier manager sent by the Continental Magic Association. I didn't expect it to be you, Duncan."

Frillie was somewhat surprised to see Duncan walking out; she hadn't expected it to be him.

"I only recently took over as the barrier manager here, and I had to ask Celie for help for a long time to do so."

After all, my hometown... is right here in this land of gold. It's ironic that the view of this land of gold from here is so beautiful.

Duncan gazed at the golden city not far away, his eyes filled with memories.

Is your hometown there?

Hugh Talke looked at Duncan and asked.

“Strictly speaking, it’s not there. The walled city of Viize belongs to the Gluck family, which is the city ruled by my father-in-law.”

My hometown is further north, in that village at the northern end of the barrier. A long time ago, my wife and I lived in a large house there. That village was swallowed up by gold just a few years ago.

When talking about his wife, Duncan's tone softened, and his eyes were filled with longing for her. Although his wife had passed away a long time ago, he still loved her deeply.

"A few years ago? What happened? According to the information provided by Lord Raelnen, Mahat and the other demons were sealed away fifty years ago, right?"

Philon looked at Duncan with a puzzled expression; this matter hadn't been mentioned in the intelligence report.

"The barrier is only meant to limit Mahat. The Golden City is still expanding, and the barrier manager's job is to adjust the barrier's range every year according to the size of the Golden City."

Duncan and his group of friends explained that Duncan believed Shi Yichen must know.

In fact, Shi Yichen rarely paid attention to these things. Ever since Celia handed everything over to Flame, they didn't need to worry about these matters at all; Flame could handle everything.

(My new book has started; it's about the euphonium and will be updated irregularly. Feel free to check it out if you're interested. I play the trumpet in Kitauji.)

(This book was investigated, and many parts need to be revised, so updates are very slow. It's just too... well, you know.)
