Chapter 154: The Two Former Children
Southern Islands, Coconut Island.
On the large island of thousands of square kilometers, there are patches of green coconut trees, swaying in the sea breeze and making slight noises. A flat road with the width of two carriages surrounds the whole island, connecting most of the area, and many light-colored buildings appear and disappear among the coconut trees.
This is a big island in the Youngberry Kingdom. Because of its mild and comfortable climate, more than 600,000 people live here. The island is rich in coconut trees, hence its name.
A slight roar came from the road, and then a magic locomotive drove across the road and headed towards the port.
This new type of magic locomotive is much lighter than those cumbersome predecessors, and the style is somewhat similar to the classic car in Roland Hill's memory, with taller and narrower tires.
Its power source uses a new type of magic steam turbine, but it is a reduced version for convenience. While the power is reduced, the cost is also much less, which is gradually acceptable.
As the roar of the magic locomotive stopped, it braked lightly on the side of the road, and a young man with blond hair stepped out of the car.
He then closed the car door, and he could still see the pattern of Lacquer Night Flowers, which was the logo of the Karites Chamber of Commerce.
There are many passengers in the port now, they come from other islands, or Crancia. Since the people have gradually become rich, travel has gradually become popular, and it is too dangerous to go to the empire, so the close southern islands have become the first choice of many people.
A large cruise ship was docked at the port, and passengers stepped off one after another.
The young man stood at the exit and waited patiently. With a brown magic mirror, he occasionally looked at the pocket watch in his pocket to determine the time.
About ten minutes later, a young girl dressed in light purple and white finally walked down the stairs of the cruise ship. She was holding a pendant umbrella, a white suitcase in her hand, and a complicated dress.
After seeing the girl, the young man waved his hand, and then the girl turned around and slowly approached.
"I would like to ask Big Brother Iger to come pick me up." After meeting, the girl simply saluted, lightly shading her hand, and showing a smile.
"Actually, it's okay, I'm just experimenting with a new magic locomotive recently." The young man took the suitcase in the girl's hand, and the two walked out of the port together.
"Oh, haven't you turned on the aircraft? Some time ago, I communicated with Uncle Terry, and he said that the aircraft you designed has entered the stage of mass production." After seeing the magic locomotive, the girl put away her umbrella and walked away. Sit in the back seat.
This magic locomotive is an open-top style and looks very comfortable.
"That's right, but the aircraft thing has come to an end, and I can't rest, so I find something to do."
"Giggle, it's really like what Sister Lacey said, you always like new things so much."
After the two were done, the magic locomotive started and then drove along the road around the island.
The comfortable sea breeze was blowing, bringing up the girl's long light golden hair, she stretched out her hand and felt the wind passing between her fingers, a kind of intimate feeling followed.
Back here again, although this is not her hometown, but since she moved to this small island with Uncle Triton when she was a child, she has lived a stable life.
During this period, Sister Lacey also wrote several letters to herself, asking about the situation, and giving a lot of help. Now, she has also graduated from Emenas. Looking back, it is like a dream.
When I was a child, Jin Yi Yu Shi suddenly suffered drastic changes. He and his uncle hid in the slums to survive. Later, they boarded the sailing ship and headed to this archipelago. After that, they gradually settled down under the arrangement of Sister Laixie.
"How old is Luna now?" the young man driving in front asked.
"Guess what?" The girl smiled and deliberately didn't say anything.
"I can't guess, but I feel like it should surpass me." Iger sighed a little. Although he is talented in invention and creation, he can't compare to this childhood sweetheart girl in practice.
"Necromancer Sequence 7, is it a bit of an accident?" The girl stroked the hair on the side of her ear and replied softly.
"But in Emenas, this is not news. Now, there is a genius who won the Winter Festival Championship in the third grade and graduated early."
"Then your grades at the Winter Festival shouldn't be bad, right? I remember Grandpa Ceres commented that you were very talented before."
"Don't laugh at me when you were young." The girl shook her head and replied.
"Only got the third place, and the second place was an orc from the grassland. He fought very hard. I didn't want to continue fighting with him, so I gave up." Recalling the terrifying belief burning in those eyes, Luna gently Shaking his head, he doesn't feel ashamed to lose.
"Compared to me who was born happy, he really needs this ranking more."
The two talked in the car sentence by sentence, talking about things over the years.
Iger is naturally the child of Mrs. Balya, the little boy that Angus asked Tololan Hill to take care of, and is now an adult.
Luna was the child that Triton rescued from the upheaval in Yubere, and was later sent to Coconut Wind Island by Roland Hill to settle down and grew up here.
The two met when they were teenagers. At that time, Iger was also taken to Yefeng Island, because there are several good schools here, and the Karites Chamber of Commerce has many people stationed here, which is more convenient to take care of.
Later, Iger entered the Magic Academy in the Southern Islands, while Luna went to Emenas.

After chatting for a while, they said about the girl again.
"Have you seen Sister Lacey all these years?" Luna asked curiously.
"No, according to Aunt Chelsea, the eldest has gone far away. Fortunately, I finally received news last year that Sister Lacey returned to Hopeland and stayed there for a while."
"Unfortunately, I was busy with the aircraft project at that time. When I got the news, Sister Lacey left again."
"So, Sister Lacey is always so mysterious." Luna recalled the old legend of Emena Li.
The mysterious and powerful founder of the Black Water Lily Society is Sister Lacey, and the Rothier senior in Temple Academy is also very suspicious.
Looking back at those older sisters now, they are all great figures now.
Sister Alena is a member of the Young Moon Council, Sister Letis is a master in the field of alchemy and clothing, Sister Nya is now a famous general of Crancia, and even Sister Lily, who has been neglected by herself, is now a member of the Empire Red Queen.
It's incredible.
Sometimes she couldn't believe that she knew these future great people at such a young age.
When Luna sank into her memories, Iggy in front asked again.
"What are you going to do after that? I heard that you went back to Jubere some time ago. Do you have plans to revive the Filarus Chamber of Commerce? After all, you are also the only surviving heir."
"I went back, but I have no idea of revival." Luna retracted her fingers and pressed her chest lightly.
"My childhood memories are very vague, and I almost don't remember what the Filares Chamber of Commerce looks like now."
"This time, I just went back to meet the old people who were left of the Filarus Chamber of Commerce in the past, and gave them financial support to end the regrets of the past."
"In the future, I'm afraid I will work in Karites, after all, it will be more familiar and friendly here."
"Besides, I haven't repaid Sister Lacey's kindness yet, giggling." She covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Uncle Terry made a mess that year. Looking back on it now, it's too shameful. He has told me several times in my ear, and let me find an opportunity to help Lady Lacey to make up for it."
"What about you, Iggy?"
"Me? Aha, that is naturally to conquer the free blue sky, just like the wish made when I was a child."
"Create wings that even mortals can fly!"
Under a blue sky, the locomotive drove into the distance with a hearty sound.
