Herag recounted everything in detail, summarizing most of his experiences over the years.

However, he concealed certain secretive information that Emil and others should preferably not know.

Emil and the others listened to Herag's account as if it were a myth; if they didn't know Herag's identity, they would really think it was something from a legendary storybook.

Elf Plane, Boundary Land, Abyss Plane, Demon Plane...

These were things Emil and the other ordinary people could never have come across before, and hadn't even had a chance to hear about.

They then realized that the world they lived in was called the Wizard Plane, which had several such continents.

They learned that other planes existed too, and that the Wizard Plane was just a Small Plane in the Endless Plane.

Emil looked at Herag with a complex feeling in his heart.

Even though Herag recounted his experiences lightly, it must have been very tough all those years; some stories made Emil tense just by listening to them.

Eric, after listening, felt a longing, a desire for the adventures Herag had recounted, and he was also curious about the various peculiar planes.

Emil, however, was different; he was aware of the dangers involved.

Herag actually considered whether or not to tell Emil and the others about these things.

In the end, he decided to share with them, letting them know what the world was truly like.

For ordinary people, it might be better to just live their entire life like this.

Sometimes knowing too much can be a kind of pain because you know such a life exists, but you are never able to reach it, and that sense of loss can indeed be uncomfortable.

But Herag was different; he had the ability to help Emil and the others shed their ordinary identities.

As long as Emil and the others were willing, they could leave here at any time and move directly to the other side once the Kala Continent was developed.

As for the issue of lifespan, it was also easily dealt with for Herag; at least the World Tree Juice in his possession could extend Emil and others' life by three hundred years.

If there wasn't enough World Tree Juice, they could get Chatiya to fetch some more from the Elf Plane when the time came.

Moreover, once the World Tree in the Small Plane matured, they could stably obtain World Tree Juice themselves.

Once Emil and the others' constitution had improved, Herag could even help them step-by-step become Official Wizards, embarking on the path of wizardry, using the resources at hand.

There was no need to reach very high realms; even Level 1 or Level 2 Wizards already had sufficiently long lives.

For ordinary people, these were as unachievable as myths, but Herag himself was a mythical existence.

Herag didn't elaborate much on the power system of wizards, as it was too far removed from Emil and the others, and wasn't something easy to perceive directly.

They only knew that Herag was now considered a significant figure even in the Wizard Plane.

After sharing his experiences over the years, Herag also chatted with Emil about their circumstances these past years.

Back then, Baron Buck's Dur Territory and the neighboring Hammond Territory had now been taken over by a noble named Count Beize.

After Emil became a Great Knight these years, he actually had a certain level of strength and influence and could apply to the Norton Kingdom to address the issues surrounding Dur Valley.

Because, strictly speaking, according to the laws of the Norton Kingdom, Dur Valley was supposed to be inherited by Melissa.

But since after Baron Buck's death, Melissa and the others didn't have any background or power, they could only accept this forced result.

Once Emil had some power, considering his whole family, he chose not to wade into this muddy water.

Emil thought clearly about it; his family was already living happily now, and there was no need to desire more, as that would only put his family in danger.

In Swan City, with the protection of Master Claude's influence, they were safe enough.

As he aged, Emil naturally had less of such thoughts and wouldn't tell his son Eric and others about these things.

Over the years, Emil had clarified many things and began investigating his own identity, finally confirming he was indeed the illegitimate son of Baron Buck.

Fortunately, Melissa wasn't Baron Buck's daughter, which he could not tell whether was a piece of good or bad news, feeling some amusement in despair.

After listening, Herag said, "Understood, don't worry, leave this matter to me, Dur Valley will definitely return where it belongs."

"Forget it, there's no need, things are fine now," Emil didn't want to trouble Herag.

Melissa, however, hesitated, for she was always deeply resentful about this matter, although she knew the harsh reality and that family was more important.

Watching Baron Buck's family tragically die before her eyes was a pain Melissa couldn't erase her entire life.

Herag, upon seeing Melissa's expression, said, "It's okay, for me, this is easy to handle, it won't be a problem. Also, I've avenged Baron Buck's family."

"What do you mean…" Both Emil and Melissa looked over suddenly, realizing something.

Obviously, this was something that had been buried deep in their hearts, but they were helpless to do anything and couldn't ask Herag to avenge them, as that would put Herag in danger.

Naturally, Herag didn't detail this matter in his earlier accounts.

"Malcolm, I personally slew him, grinding his bones into ashes," Herag said slowly.

For safety's sake, Herag actually ground Malcolm into ashes, leaving not a shred of life, completely annihilating his soul.

Emil and Melissa were stunned upon hearing this as if lost in memories, and Melissa soon began to cry bitterly.

Eric and the others hurriedly came to comfort her; they had never experienced those things and couldn't understand why their mother was crying so sorrowfully.

Emil's eyes also reddened slightly, and after a long while, he looked at Herag and said heavily, "Thank you."

These two words embodied too many emotions, also untangling the longstanding knot in Emil and Melissa's hearts.

After a long time, Melissa gradually calmed down.

Herag spoke, "Well then, let me check on your health issues, Emil."

"Health issues?" Melissa was a bit puzzled and then looked at Emil; evidently, she didn't know about Emil's situation either.

Emil's expression changed slightly, shaking his head, "I'm fine, no need to check."
