Chapter 744 - Reaching Ferran
When Angor saw the date indicator on his tablet entering a new year, The Limpet finally arrived at Grandgreen Range, which was the first place to go for people from Ferran who would enter Devil’s Water. But to The Limpet, this basically meant their final destination.
“That was five months, huh?” Angor listened to the joyful conversations of sailors and felt sad all of a sudden.
In order not to let random concerns and old memories depress him, he forced himself to empty his mind.
But Tulu’s arrival disrupted his peace.
“Are you joining our feast, Mister Padt? Officer Helen asked me to invite you…” Tulu wasn’t sure whether he was interrupting something.
“No.” Angor shook his head. “I’ll just cause all you people to get nervous again. I’ll watch from here.”
“We’re almost at Ferran Land. We wish to sincerely thank you, sir.”
Angor considered and decided to comply.
“Sir, I own a house in Yothur City. Please feel free to use it if you need lodging,” Erwin offered politely.
Angor did plan to stay at Ferran for a while, both to search for Lucas’ information and to scout for talents. Since he also needed a lot of time working on Empty Ballad, he chose to accept Erwin’s invitation.
“I’d appreciate it.”
“Oh please, we are the ones who are grateful. I should definitely do what I can after you helped us get back unscathed.”
Erwin was going to show Angor the way to his house, but he stopped moving when he saw a man wearing the association’s uniform standing not far from him.
“Oops… Excuse me, sir, that’s the inspector of White Clam, probably here to check why Mister Roman had not contacted them. I need to find Helen and report the incident.” He then looked at Tulu. “Take Mister Padt to my yard. When at the office, I’ll remove your name from the roster as well.”
Tulu nodded and took the lead.
Angor glimpsed at the said inspector and noticed supernatural energy. But it was only a level-1 apprentice.
“Go ahead.” Angor followed behind Tulu, but he suddenly remembered something and turned back. “Oh right… Captain Erwin, can you help me look into something?”
