Herag held Erza, feeling the warmth of her touch.

As he walked into the island, he found it quite interesting.

The entire island was enveloped in a Witch Array, at least a Level 2 Witch Array, or possibly a Level 3 Witch Array.

With such protective witchcraft, there's basically no need to worry about external threats invading.

The maids on the island were also from within the Erza Family, and their reliability was relatively high.

The palace where Erza usually lived was located in a flat area of the island, while other houses were for the servants on the island.

After entering the palace, Erza directly pulled Herag into her boudoir and dismissed the maids.

"Tell me, what's this about not being able to see you again, as you mentioned in your letter?" Herag asked, which was something he was particularly concerned about.

Erza stood by the floor-to-ceiling window without responding, instead extending her hand with a gentle wave, and the curtains closed automatically, leaving only the soft yellow light in the room.

With another wave of her hand, the dress she was wearing slowly slipped down, but it didn't drop completely, caught on something.

Frowning, sometimes this was a bother, she moved her hand again to pull the dress down.

She then turned around, wearing black lingerie.

Herag's eyes were fixed.

Under the dim, enchanting light, Erza's flawless body paired with the seductive lingerie displayed an irresistible allure.

Erza walked slowly towards Herag with bare feet and then held him tightly.

"Let's talk about it another time," Erza whispered.

...

The vast endless sea, the sun rises and sets.

In Erza's boudoir.

Herag looked at Erza, who was breathing softly in his arms; the bed and room were a mess.

Erza was now a Level 1 Official Wizard, her constitution had greatly increased, allowing Herag to be more unrestrained than before.

Yet, despite such fatigue, even this Official Wizard seemed a bit overwhelmed.

Although tired, she was very satisfied.

"Don't leave," Erza whispered, resting her head on Herag's sturdy arm.

"I don't want to leave either, but there's a lot to be done," Herag said.

"It's not that, you don't understand," Erza said.

Herag asked puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"Remember what I said in my letter? You might not see me again," Erza said.

"I remember," Herag replied, sensing that Erza had something to say.

Erza said, "Dream Island might close soon."

"Close? What do you mean?" Herag asked.

"I also heard this through some rumors in the family, but it seems there's going to be major upheaval in the Wizard Plane. To protect itself, Dream Island is preparing to shut down temporarily and cut off contact with the Wizard Plane," Erza said.

Herag was thoughtful; it seemed that Dream Island had already sensed something without needing a message from the Sea Race.

Come to think of it, Dream Island has been a Wizard Organization existing for such a long time.

Even if its strength couldn't match the various Wizard Organizations of the Land of Dawn, it had its foundation.

Dream Island must have foreseen something about the future through some means, which is why they were making preparations in advance.

Regarding Dream Island, the invasion of the Abyss Plane wasn't that terrifying.

Since they were already in another plane, they only needed to sever contact with the Wizard Plane.

Unless the Abyss Plane specifically created a space passage to Dream Island, but that probability is minimal.

Because all actions have a purpose, the Abyss Plane invades the Wizard Plane for its own interests.

Dream Island is just a Low-tier World, with too little reward from an invasion.

Thinking about this, Herag suddenly pondered why the Abyss Plane wanted to invade the Wizard Plane.

The Wizard Plane is technically just a Middle-tier World, what is there so attractive to the Abyss Plane that even after all these years they persist in their attempts to invade?

Herag felt he might have grasped a key issue about this.

The Abyss Plane, being a High-tier World with an intelligent civilization, acts out of self-interest and doesn't idly bully weaker planes for fun.

Therefore, the Abyss Plane must be seeking something from the Wizard Plane during its invasion. What do they want from the Wizard Plane?

Not understanding for now, Herag temporarily kept this question to himself.

Returning to Dream Island, since they foresaw danger, they would naturally take protective measures.

For Dream Island, this naturally means hiding itself and temporarily severing contact with the Wizard Plane.

This way, they can temporarily protect themselves.

Dream Island, as a Small Plane, is a truly complete and real world, enough to sustain countless inhabitants.

Except for the low chance of birthing a Level 4 Wizard, due to its low plane level, it is absolutely suitable for the people of Dream Island to live for many years.

Even without any contact with the Wizard Plane, they can be self-sufficient.

After Erza learned all this, she naturally wanted Herag to stay with her, as that would at least mean temporary safety.

"I already know this information, and I've made some preparations," Herag said.

"I want you to stay," Erza said, seeing that Herag seemed still intent on leaving, uncharacteristically acting coquettish.

Although Erza had always been charming and beautiful, she had never acted so coy before, revealing the demeanor of a young girl.

Herag's heart fluttered, impressed by how so many people could get lost in tenderness.

In such tender arms, getting lost didn't seem entirely unacceptable.

But Herag's resolve was strong, he wouldn't just stay here waiting and doing nothing.

"Don't worry, even if Dream Island closes, I can still come in," Herag said.

"How will you come in, are you lying to me again?" Erza said.

Herag smiled helplessly and said, "My Messenger can deliver messages across planes. Besides that, he can also bring people. It's just that it might trigger Dream Island's alert at that time, but you just need to explain things."

"Across planes? And can bring people!" Erza was a bit taken aback, being from a Wizard Family she naturally knew about these things.

There are indeed beings in the messengers who can traverse planes, but those are the absolute top existences of other planes.

It's very difficult to form a Messenger Contract with such beings, at least Erza hadn't heard of it before.

The reason is simply that such beings don't regard ordinary wizards.

Without sufficient strength, it's impossible to sign a Messenger Contract with them.

Erza looked seriously at Herag, still somewhat puzzled.

Although Herag was a Level 2 Wizard, strong in places like the Barren Land.

But in the endless planes, a Level 2 Wizard isn't much.
