When Aiven and the relaxed Boris walked out of the house again.
Their identities had changed once more, as Aiven was now not only Boris's direct captain but also Calvin's mentor.
From today onwards, Aiven's "Vitalist School" could finally hold its head high, describing itself as having "a couple of big cats and small cats."
Although, it didn't sound very worth celebrating.
However, at this point, Aiven had finally taken the first step in the great enterprise of rebuilding the school. More members meant more opportunities, stronger power, and a more stable path for the "Vitalist School."
It would even pave the way for the seemingly distant "Truth Embodiment"!
Although detailed testing revealed that Calvin wasn't as extraordinarily gifted as Angie.
Still, he wasn't far behind Aiven, the chief.
If he's carefully nurtured with the "Essence Fruit," reaching the limits of the Apprentice Level within a few years shouldn't be a problem. Whether he can achieve the soul ascension of the Official Wizard will be up to him.
Before that, without the "Activated Spiritual Light," Colvin would immediately revert.
So he needed to always carry a seed provided by Aiven, storing pre-infused activated spiritual light, equivalent to a long-acting "slow-release pill."
And they should all be grateful.
This strange disease only affected motor neurons and didn't impact the patient's intelligence, memory, or senses. Although it halted his Knight's Path for two years, at least it didn't cut off his wizard path!
Before leaving.
Aiven and the young man agreed that after his body initially recovered, he would come back to lead him officially into the wizard's gate.
As for now, Aiven had many things to do, without much time to wander outside. After finishing business, he planned to return immediately without delay.
Tap.. tap.. tap..
The two walked along the well-maintained roads of Far Sail City towards the harbor district.
It was only at this time that Aiven had the leisure to appreciate this prosperous city ranked among the top of all Phaletis Colonies.
In the kingdom's colonial economy, Far Sails Territory and Fordmon focused on shipping and shipbuilding, with a relatively developed industrial system. Even factories using steam engines were not uncommon.
This place, among the entire New Continent's colonies, was the closest to the homeland of the Source Continent, and its degree of industrialization even surpassed many conservative countries of the Old Continent.
Actually, it's easy to understand.
Because not only Hilus, even the Phaletis Royal Family's aim was to thrive on the colony's blood.
Though they aren't as brutal in their exploitation as Hilus's authoritarian politics, the support for the colony's own development cannot be too great.
But the Aimoer family is different. After completing early territorial exploration, they long moved the entire family's foundation here.
They were also one of the few pioneering nobles in Phaletis after the kingdom's reforms.
Although already members of the noble group, they were also able to advance in rank due to the vast territorial expansion.
In this territory, Aimoer enjoyed rights equivalent to the Royal Family, almost like an independent kingdom during the era of enfeoffment, so naturally, they put in effort to manage it.
Even comparing all standards to the most advanced achievements of the Phaletis Kingdom, they aimed to build it into the brightest jewel of the entire New Continent!
"Staying in this city feels almost like being in the homeland. The rulers of Far Sails Territory have long-term vision!"
Along the way, Aiven noticed that the level of development here wasn't inferior to some major cities in the homeland.
Although there were many residents of different complexions like Nimaster, Creole, Mastizo, and Atrean, the achievements were already brilliant enough.
Especially considering the trajectory of world development, industrialization is the mainstream of the era, and Far Sails Territory was already on the right path.
"The Marquis and Marchioness Yuanfan are outstanding figures, creating a good business environment internally, actively developing core industries, and having the kingdom's largest private fleet in the New Continent.
Externally, they unite the major colonies and can show strength, taking bloody revenge on pirates and aboriginals who dare to offend.
However, right next to Hilus's New Hilus Vice-Kingdom, not only across the sea, but even the land buffer zone is only a few hundred kilometers.
Even a powerful Tier 3 Knight walks on thin ice."
Boris, who made his home here, of course understood this place deeply. After agreeing with Aiven's words, he also pointed out the hidden concerns here.
As Phaletis's bridgehead into the Golden Sea, while receiving the kingdom's support, they inevitably face various external risks and challenges.
Aiven nodded in agreement with Boris's perspective. For those who appear glorious, they naturally have their challenges.
However, speaking of which, he jokingly asked Boris:
"By the way, Lt. Col. Boris, are you still planning to retire and spend your old age in this city?"
"Not retiring, not retiring! I'll serve on the 'Storm Horn' when I'm alive, and be a ghost of the 'Storm Horn' when I'm dead!
I'll go back and write to the Commander to apply for official enlistment. Captain, you won't kick me out, right?"
"Hahaha, it depends on your performance."
Joking with his mouth, Aiven knew that for nothing else, just for Calvin, Boris would definitely put in all his effort and enthusiasm to shine on the "Storm Horn."
