Sixth Ring Wizard

Chapter 671: Dur Valley


Herag did not deliberately hide his presence; otherwise, Raymond would never have detected him.

He smiled and said, "My name is Herag, a wizard from the Kala Continent, and the Coleson Continent is also my homeland. I came here today because I need some assistance from His Majesty the King."

Raymond did not seem surprised that Herag hailed from the Kala Continent, but rather curiously asked, "Mr. Herag, what might it be that I can assist you with?"

It was strange to him that a wizard from the Kala Continent would need help from a mortal king.

Herag then narrated the background of the situation regarding the Dur Valley, and Raymond roughly understood.

He said, "I understand. According to the laws of the Norton Kingdom, the Dur Valley indeed should belong to Miss Melissa. I will handle this matter personally and immediately; you needn't worry."

Raymond took this matter seriously. Besides Herag's identity, Herag's method and attitude toward handling this matter also made him take Herag more seriously.

For a wizard, although there might be other ways to deal with it directly, opting to resolve it through his channels was a sign of trust and goodwill towards him.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Suddenly, an old man, lean and withered, appeared in the room, standing protectively in front of Raymond, vigilantly staring at Herag, emanating an aura of magic power.

"A Crystalization Wizard?" Herag was a bit surprised to encounter a Crystalization Wizard here, seemingly protecting Raymond.

"Sir Steve, it's fine; this is Mr. Herag, also from the Kala Continent," Raymond reassured Steve not to worry, taking the initiative to introduce.

"Herag?" A glint of sharpness flashed in Steve's eyes as he scrutinized Herag, seemingly verifying something.

He didn't feel any magic aura from Herag, which was precisely the most alarming point for him.

Herag inquired, "Which Wizard Organization do you belong to?"

"Aluf Swamp," Steve replied, still wary, as if trying to recall, though not immediately remembering.

Herag nodded, "So, you are a wizard from the Aluf Swamp. I once stayed in the Moonlight Forest but haven't been to the Aluf Swamp."

"Moonlight Forest... Are you really that Herag?" Steve seemed to finally remember, shocked yet incredulous to encounter Herag here.

Herag asked, "You know of me?"

Steve nodded, lowering his guard: "So it's really Mr. Herag. I never expected to meet you here. I've heard your name long ago and have been hearing news associated with you frequently over the past few years..."

Herag and Steve chatted for a while to understand his situation roughly.

Steve wasn't originally from the Coleson Continent; he came here to fulfill a promise to an old friend.

His old friend was also a wizard from the Aluf Swamp, and they were long-time friends, while the other was from the Coleson Continent and of the Norton Kingdom's royal lineage.

The old friend, unable to advance to a Level 2 Wizard and nearing the end of his lifespan, saw the Norton Kingdom undergoing a transitional period.

As one of the ancestors of the Norton Kingdom, he didn't want to see it teetering in peril, so he entrusted Steve to look after his descendants in the Coleson Continent.

Raymond had been able to manage so smoothly for years due to Steve's significant assistance in resolving numerous issues, otherwise, the reform wouldn't have proceeded so smoothly and would have been even bloodier.

As a Level 1 Crystalization Wizard, Steve was invincible in the Coleson Continent. Whenever he took action, there was no trouble he couldn't solve.

However, Steve adhered to the unspoken rules of the Wizard World, maintaining a low profile and rarely taking grandiose actions, providing assistance more from behind the scenes, and seldom massacring ordinary people, intervening mainly to protect Raymond.

Upon detecting an anomaly just now, Steve hastily rushed over to prevent any unforeseen events befalling Raymond.

In the Wizard Plane's community, Herag was well-known, renowned, and everyone knew of him, which naturally included Steve's understanding.

To Steve, someone like Herag was so far beyond his reach, not someone within his level of contact.

That's why upon first hearing the name Herag, Steve couldn't immediately connect the two, merely harboring some suspicion.

Only when Herag mentioned having stayed in the Moonlight Forest did Steve realize he had indeed encountered Herag.

From their conversation, Raymond roughly understood the situation as well. He hadn't expected Herag to be such a significant figure, especially with Steve being so cautious upon learning of Herag's identity.

And for such an entity to approach him for assistance regarding certain matters was truly a great honor.

Raymond promptly said, "Mr. Herag, aside from the Dur Valley, I can also grant this area to Miss Melissa's family."

He pointed to a large piece of land adjacent to the Dur Valley, which seemed to belong to a certain duke's territory.

Herag shook his head, "No need. I simply wish to help them reclaim what rightfully belongs to them. Extra land would only bring them trouble."

Granting such a large piece of land to Emil and his family was meaningless; having acquired so much land, they would need to be able to defend it as well.

Even with Raymond looking out for them, he couldn't possibly monitor the place twenty-four hours a day, inevitably leading to some extra troubles.

Herag had not planned for Emil's family to stay there permanently; after the Northern Territory was likely developed, they might move there where it would be easier for him to take care of them.

Raymond quickly understood Herag's meaning and said, "Apologize, my oversight."

After the two discussed the details, Raymond acted with high efficiency, sending one command after another from the Imperial Palace, which were soon executed.

Dur Valley was once again returned to Melissa's Sara family, and after thirty years, it welcomed back its owner.

As for Count Beize, who originally occupied the Dur Valley, he didn't dare utter a single word.

For him, a direct order from the current king was utterly unavoidable; he immediately withdrew his forces, not daring to linger any longer.

This young king had left too deep an impression on these nobles, lessons paid in blood with heads rolling.

Beize was merely a count from a remote district, where could he afford any small ambitions?

Moreover, Raymond, to ensure more security, even dispatched a troop to station at the Dur Valley to safeguard its safety.
