Bab 121: Back on the ship
As she disembarked the ship, Beatrice couldn't help but stare behind her, at the storm that was currently approaching Nanrath Island.
After a few moments, Beatrice couldn't help but shake her head.
'I should go to the landing place of the ship, It's better If I wait there, so that nothing can happen,' mumbled Beatrice as she walked through the now extremely empty streets of the city.
Looking at the crew of the ship she had travelled on, who were currently tying up the ship to the dock with rather worried looks on their faces, Beatrice couldn't help but snap her fingers.
Suddenly, the eyes of the crew dilated, as the robes which they had been tying moved on their own.
In only a few moments, the ship had been secured to the dock, causing the eyes of the crew to return to normal.
Staring at the perfectly tied up ship, the captain couldn't help but feel as though he had forgotten something, but as he couldn't remember it after thinking for a few moments, he ignored it.
"Why are you wasting time here, boys, it's time to go to safety," said the captain, causing the remaining crew to hurriedly get off the ship.
...
Ten minutes later,
As Beatrice walked down the street and looked at the countless windows that had been boarded shut using planks, she couldn't help but sign.
"No matter how much they try, or what they build, mortals are always so insignificant compared to mother nature," mumbled Beatrice as she noticed that the streets had become empty.
Suddenly, Beatrice faintly frowned, causing the Dark Barrier always surrounding her to materialise.
In only an instant, the wind, which was already quite strong, become even stronger, as instantly rain began pouring down.
A few moments later, Beatrice suddenly moved her head to the left, dodging a plank of wood that was now flying through the air.
'If I'm not using the Dark Barrier spell, the power of this wind can send me flying as well,' thought Beatrice as she continued walking down the street.
Of course, Beatrice knew that although she was a Mage Apprentice, she had not truly escaped the category of a mortal, as she had not become an Official Mage, yet.
After this thought entered her mind, Beatrice no longer dilly-dallied, and began walking to her destination.
...
Two days later.
Staring at the enormous flying ship that was descending from the clouds, a faint smile appeared on the face of Beatrice, who was sitting on a rock, now with a mask on her face.
At this moment, Beatrice suddenly moved her head and observed the figures that had appeared nearby.
Six other masked mage apprentices had now emerged from their hiding spots, and were now staring at the ship as well.
In only a brief moment, Beatrice's eyes moved over the six mages.
Five of them did not seem to respond in the slightest to her vision, whilst one of them slightly shivered.
Seeing this, Beatrice waved her hand at the mage with a smile on her face, causing him to lower his eyes and not dare to stare at her.
Noticing this, Beatrice shook her head.
'Ignoring it, how boring,' thought Beatrice as she turned her attention away from the mages and back onto the flying ship.
Feeling the gaze move away from them, four of the other five mages breathed a silent sign of relief.
By now though, Beatrice was in no position to care about this, as the flying ship had now landed on the ground, or rather, half a meter off the ground.
Seeing this, Beatrice faintly smiled and jumped onto the deck of the ship, where the receptionist that had first sold Beatrice the ticket to enter the ship was standing.
After staring at the receptionist for a brief moment, Beatrice shook her head before throwing a bag of elemental stones at her.
Although Beatrice had to expend some elemental stones to keep up her refining of Mana, around 250 elemental stones to be exact, she was still not lacking in that department currently, and could afford the 399 elemental stone price for the ticked.
A moment later, the receptionist had finished counting the elemental stones that Beatrice had given her.
"Distinguished lady, this is your ticket," said the receptionist as she handed Beatrice a black rock.
After getting the black rock, Beatrice continued past the receptionist and walked onto the ship after using her ticket, a smile on her face.
Only a moment after Beatrice had walked through, the next of the mages walked up to the receptionist and handed her the elemental stones.
In only around three minutes, all the mages that were present when the ship had landed had gone into the ship.
As such, the receptionist had begun recounting the elemental stones, making sure that the number matched up with the number of mages.
...
Staring at the lone elemental stone that was left after the counting, a faint frown appeared on the face of Alice Burk, the receptionist.
Quickly, Alice went through her memories and began recounting the elemental stones.
After around half a minute, Alice had discovered what had gone wrong.
'That first female mage gave me 400 elemental stones instead of 399,' thought Alice, causing her to walk into the ship.
Although Alice would very much like to take advantage of this mistake and take the stone for herself, she knew her teacher's orders, as well as her temper, very well.
As such, after a few moments, Alice had decided on what to do, and walked into the ship.
She would give the elemental stone back to that female mage.
It had taken Alice some effort to find the mage, as she did not know her name, but after around half an hour, Alice had finally arrived in front of a door.
"Distinguished lady, may I come in?" asked Alice as she knocked on the door.
"You can come in," said a lazy female voice after a few moments of silence.
