牛奶色隔壁有夫之妇

Not a single student could see his movements, and even Signy, a rank one mage, was impressed by how fast he was. Sure, speed was not the only thing one needed in a fight, as there were many variables, but a surprise attack with that much speed would surely bring trouble to any mage.

It was not a bad move, and Arthur was sure no student beneath the rank one would be able to avoid it, but in front of him, it was still child\'s play. Arthur could see James perfectly, and that was without using his Emperor Eye.

"Take this!!!" James yelled, jumping and binding his two swords together, sending a powerful double thundery slash.

When it almost hit Arthur in the face, he moved his right hand, blocking the spell quickly. Even after colliding with the force of the attack, Arthur did not move a single inch, standing tall like an unmovable mountain.

James knew it would not hurt Arthur, but he expected his attack to have more effect, maybe moving Arthur away from his original spot. If he managed that, it would be worth it in his eyes.

Arthur saw his defeated face and said, "your attack was incredible, kid. I can say with certainty that no other student can block it."

These words brought James back to reality and gave him a feeling of happiness. It was an unforgettable experience to hear the strongest mage compliment you.

He would never forget that moment, and his anger was long gone. There was no reason to go up against Arthur.

"Now that I think off, Arthur never did a thing, so why was I angry with him? I should use this experience to grow stronger!" James thought as he bowed toward Arthur in a sign of respect, admitting his defeat.

The two of them exchanged a few words, and James left to ponder about the fight. As for all the students present, they were now sure Arthur was indeed the strongest mage around. It was gone after the battle if anyone else thought of challenging him.

Everyone dispersed when the show ended, most returning to their dorms to rest and study, preparing for the next day of class. Signy and Eleonora had packed everything. After saying goodbyes to Helga, the trio left Odemore during the night, going toward the portal leading them back to the central continent.

"How long will it take for us to reach this portal?" Signy asked.

Arthur wished his anchor spell was ready to use, but the cooldown was not short, so they had to travel without its help. Well, he planned on using his teleport skill to shorten the distance.

"Can you two come closer, please?"

He did not answer the previous question and instead asked them another, making both girls confused, but they did as he told them. Then, when they got close to him, Arthur grabbed each one using one arm and said, "hold on, \'cause we are about to teleport!"

Their vision blurred, their surroundings shifted between different locations, like when traveling fast, and the scenery kept changing. So when one teleport was over, Arthur used another one, and another one, until he ran out of mana, which would take a long time.

"Finally, it stopped!" Eleonora said, holding her stomach using her hand, afraid she would throw up.

Signy was in a similar situation, but it was slightly better for her because she was a rank-one mage.

"When my mana recovers, we will keep doing this. If we follow this routine, we can reach the portal in three days." Arthur said.

Just like that, they reached the island in three days, as Arthur stated. He was used to using teleports, so for him, it was not a big deal to travel in that style, but Signy and Eleonora praised the heavens when they reached the destination.

"Remember, we still have to pass through the portal, which will be like the teleport but a lot worse."

"Can we rest?" Both girls said, but Arthur threw them through the portal and followed right after.

"I will kill you!!!"

Their screams and threats did not scare Arthur at all. There was no time to waste, which is why he did what he did. What awaited them at the other side of the portal was the Forbidden Forest, a mysterious place Arthur wanted to explore, but first, he had to deal with this demon continent threat.

"Woah, this place looks incredible," Eleonora said as she gazed at the immense trees surrounding them.

The scenery was so gorgeous that the two girls forgot to throw up or punch Arthur in the face, not that he was complaining.

"Welcome to the central continent! We must leave this place because it may be dangerous for you two." Arthur said.

He led the way out of the Forbidden Forest with the two beautiful girls following him closely behind. Eleonora and Signy were tired, so Arthur decided to rest for a day in the village Elena came from, using the only inn available.

Arthur wanted to get more than one room, two if possible, one for him and one for the girls, but only one room was available, so the three ended up staying in the same room.

Of course, the room only had one king-sized bed, and Arthur was a gentleman who let both girls sleep on the bed.

"I can sleep on the ground."

They felt terrible after seeing him sleep on the ground, but there was nothing they could do about it, as the bed would not fit the three of them.

"Good night, Eleonora, Signy, "Arthur said, putting a few blankets on the ground to make it softer.

"Good night, Arthur," they said in unison, falling into a deep sleep after three days of teleports.

~~~~

The girls slept for an entire day! Arthur got up, wandered around the village, talked with Elena\'s parents again, and even helped a few farmers, yet the two girls roared inside the inn\'s room.

He even bought them breakfast, but it turned into lunch as they got up from bed hours after he bought it.

"Good morning, sleepyheads. You will eat this cold food due to your laziness." Arthur said.

Signy and Eleonora understood what he meant as they both woke up feeling sluggish, which could only mean they slept too much.

"Is it a problem?" Signy asked.

It was clear that Arthur was in a hurry, so they felt terrible after making him wait for too long, but he did not look angry, which made the two relax.

"Don\'t worry about it. Eat, take a shower, and then we can leave afterward. Our first step is the Odemore of the central continent."

"But what about my father? I want to see him!" Eleonora said.

"He is close to Odemore."

"I see, good, good."

Arthur waited for them to be ready, and all he could think of was his next journey, his next adventure. He would have to travel the sea into an unknown continent, which was exciting!
