Lucille was fifteen or sixteen years old during this period.
According to the customs of this world, it is indeed the age to get married. Many girls get married at this age, but they may not give birth to children immediately. However, there is no problem getting married at this age.
When I was in a small town, I saw many young women. They might be younger than me, but they were already married!
But Lucille is a witch, and this age is the best time to learn magic, so of course she wouldn't think about anything else, and Sean would never let Ash and Lucille have any contact.
Well……
In the moment of sudden realization, Sean seemed to remember something.
Why does this scene look so familiar!
He was unwilling to let the other party get close to his disciples. Didn’t Ignia suffer the same result more than ten years later?
"I really didn't say anything about you, Lucille-sister." Ash hurriedly explained.
However, Lucille's attitude was not good.
"Who allowed you to call me that? Don't try to get close to me..."
It is said that girls mature early and are sometimes more sensitive to such things. Her indifferent attitude also represents her inner thoughts.
It’s a pity that someone as highly educated as Ash couldn’t understand the meaning behind the words and kept laughing.
Alas~ Sean could only sigh inwardly.
How could he have imagined that Ash, who would have a place among the wizards of the Bashalan Empire more than ten years later, would fall in love with a girl who was five or six years younger than him? Although Lucille was young and beautiful now, he was still a celebrity in Bashalan.
Hey, this person always wants to work hard towards something that is impossible for him, and yet he still thinks he has great hope.
Seeing that Lucille ignored him and Sean didn't ask about the Roof of the World, Ash felt awkward staying here for a while.
"If you are really interested in learning more, I sincerely ask you to come to my wizard tower and take a look." Even if it was awkward, he had to force himself to find some topics to talk about.
"Thank you, but no thanks. I'm just traveling around. If I can't go to the Roof of the World, I'll visit other countries on the plateau."
Sean refused directly. In order to avoid possible troubles, it is better to refuse directly and avoid continuous invitations later.
"You can also find a lot of information in my wizard tower. I'm not exaggerating, but my place has the most books and various materials in the entire Koga City." Ash said confidently.
This is true.
More than ten years later, Ignia said the same thing to him, and it was from her that he found out about the Crown of the Sun.
Not all of them may be true, but that was the place where Sean first learned about the Sun Crown!
"I want to thank you for your kindness, but wizards like us don't like to go to other people's land. I hope you can understand." He made up an excuse that finally left Ash speechless.
"That……"
I opened my mouth, but couldn't say it.
After sitting for a while, seeing that Sean and Lucille had nothing to say, I had no choice but to leave.
"Then your Excellency should go to bed early. I still hope to invite you and your disciples to visit my wizard tower. You are welcome at any time." He behaved like a noble gentleman.
“There will be a chance!”
Sean also gave a very gentlemanly answer.
After seeing the other party leave, Lucille next to Sean smiled and spoke into his ear.
"This person left a very bad impression on me. His arrogant tone during our last fight, and his feigned gentleness today, made me feel very uncomfortable."
Perhaps Ash himself didn't expect that his impression points would be deducted during the battle.
“…And it’s particularly weak!”
He glanced at her with disdain.
Well……
"Okay, okay. Go to bed early. Otherwise you won't have the energy to travel tomorrow." Sean persuaded.
"I'd rather sleep on the airship," he said, leaning on Sean's shoulder.
My black windbreaker can be used as a quilt for two people. Wrapping ourselves together, we will be warmer at night.
At the same time, on the other side, Ash returned to Steele's team.
"How is it? Can you confirm whether they are the two people from that day?" Steele asked.
Ash thought for a moment and finally shook his head.
"It shouldn't be them. Their abilities are not like those of the two men that day. But there's no doubt that man is very strong."
"I knew it a long time ago!" Steele said, looking at where Sean and Lucille were sitting.
Frelia on the side also looked at it curiously.
But no one expected that Ash would lie just for the little ripple in his heart. In fact, when he heard the tone of Lucille's rebuttal, he was sure that it was the woman from that day. The appearance can change, but the voice and posture may not be completely changed.
The man did it almost perfectly, but the girl was young after all and didn't consider these things.
So it is understandable why they are unwilling to accept my invitation.
But in his heart, Ash had no intention of exposing the two of them, and he especially hoped that they could come to his wizard tower to take a look, so he behaved very kindly.
……………………
The next morning, the airship continued to fly towards Koga City.
Entering the mountainous area means the distance is getting closer.
I wonder if I can see the Thelemian town from this period?
Sean kept an eye on the scene below all day, and from time to time he asked the airship workers about their destination.
"The distance is still far. We are about to arrive above Xiaowan Town, where you can see the largest granary near Koga City. It is the treasure house of the southwest of the Bashalan Empire." said the worker.
Xiaowan Town.
The name was old, but Sean still remembered some of it.
The noble viscount whom I first met, Viscount Isaac, is the lord here.
According to the current time, he should still be the lord of this place...
Sure enough, after crossing the mountains, what appeared before everyone was a wilderness.
This season is the turn of summer and autumn. You can see that the wheat in the distance is showing signs of maturity, with yellow dots dotted among the green.
“So beautiful.”
Lucille said in surprise as she stood next to Sean.
Not only her, but other witches from the Wings of the Sky also ran to the front of the airship cabin to see the scenery.
It is indeed beautiful, and then look at the surrounding area and the reasonable layout of villages and farms.
From this point of view, you can understand why your town could not develop back then. There were simply no conditions. It was a world of difference compared to others. How could it develop?
After passing Xiaowan Town, Sean indeed saw a little bit of the appearance of the small town of Thelmian in a corner of a certain mountain area...
It's a very small part and you can't see it if you don't pay attention.
It was not until the afternoon of the same day that the airship officially entered the sky over Koga City.
