Chapter 292: Back to the Residence

Seeing Ron wave his hand and a pile of pills appeared, everyone from the Sky Blue Magic Academy could not help but exclaim in their hearts. Even the dean Ymir could not help but look over.

Envy, excitement… Everyone present was a Great Archmagi, so they could naturally tell the grade of the pills on the table.

Without exception, they were all grade-5 and grade-6 pills!!

Moreover, all of them were of excellent medicinal effects!!

Also, Ron had said… that he had refined all of them himself?!

Many people’s gazes changed on the spot. Not only did they treat him more seriously, they also… respected him!

As one of the four great factions of the Sebastian Kingdom, the Sky Blue Magic Academy naturally had alchemists among its members, but there were not many of them. Moreover, the level-6 alchemist in their faction had died a few years ago. Currently, the alchemist of the highest level in the faction was level-5.

The grade-6 pills they had used in recent years were all from their previous stocks, and there was only consumption and no production. This had caused them much anxiety.

In other words, the grade-6 pills on this table were all needed by the Sky Blue Magic Academy and had great value!

It could be seen how sincere Ron was to use so many pills as betrothal gifts for the member he was going to marry!

After receiving such a betrothal gift, the management of the Sky Blue Magic Academy was naturally very pleased…

Half a day later, under the gaze of almost everyone in the Sky Blue Magic Academy, the Five-Color Peacock flew out of the Sky Blue Magic Academy in the soft glow of the sunset.

It was a little different from when it came. At this moment, there was not just one person on its back, but a couple.

The other person was naturally Ron’s fiancée, Serena.

Serena turned around and looked at the Sky Blue Magic Academy. She seemed to still be able to see her closest companions waving at her. She was a little reluctant.

Someone suddenly held one of her hands tightly. Ron said in her ear, “Don’t be sad. I’ll come back with you in the future.”

Serena’s face was very red. She pursed her lips and nodded.

When they were leaving the Sky Blue Magic Academy, Ron also saw many familiar figures in the crowd, including William, Elizabeth, and the others whom he had met in the Blue Jade Mystic Realm, as well as Howen, who he had known earlier.

Thinking of Howen, Ron suddenly remembered something and asked, “Serena, do you know someone called Jared?”

Upon hearing the name, a strange expression appeared on Serena’s face. “Where… where have you heard about this person?”

Ron raised his eyebrows and said, “When I went to the mystic realm to train, I had actually received two letters through Elizabeth. One was the letter you had asked Elizabeth to bring to me, and the other was from Howen. He had reminded me to be careful of a person called Jared.”

Serena was stunned. She muttered, “Was there actually such a thing? Why would Howen…”

Immediately, she seemed to have suddenly understood and looked nervously at Ron.

“Then… what happened after that? Did you see this person?”

“No.” Ron shook his head. “I didn’t see anyone, and I didn’t understand what Howen meant, so I want to know if you knew anything.”

Serena twisted a corner of her blouse unconsciously with one hand, and she hesitated.

“Jared… He’s the disciple of my Teacher’s old friend. Back then… He was the one who interfered with our marriage…”

With Serena’s explanation, Ron finally understood what was going on with this person and what the situation was.

About two years ago, Jared had followed his Teacher to visit by chance. As soon as he saw Serena, he inexplicably took a fancy to her. Her Teacher and her old friend pondered for a while and felt that the two of them could be together, so Serena’s Teacher had wanted her to be freed from her engagement quickly.

At that time, Ron was already a complete invalid in the eyes of the outside world, and the Nicholas family was very weak.

In the eyes of Serena’s Teacher, neither Ron nor the Nicholas family was worthy of her disciple. Then, she was ordered to break off her engagement.

However, many things had happened after that, and this matter had also been kept a secret. Serena’s Teacher had expressed that he would let the matter rest, and Serena also thought that the matter was over. She was also afraid that Ron would think too much if she told him, so she did not mention it again in the letter.

Now that she had suddenly learned from Ron, Serena was stunned to realize that there was more to this matter.

Howen had interacted a lot with Jared previously, so he might have known some insider information, for example, that Jared might attack Ron in the mystic realm… Perhaps Howen had made a mistake, or perhaps it was some other reason. In any case, Ron had not encountered this person in the mystic realm trial.

After she had explained all the relevant information she knew, Serena looked nervously at her fiancé.

“Ron, I’m sorry. I should have told you everything back then…”

Ron raised his hand and rubbed her hair, not taking it to heart. “It’s okay, this matter is over. There’s no need to be conflicted.”

He really did not care much about such a person who he had not even met or done anything to him… Even if the other party really had the ability to find him, he was not afraid.

Under the glow of the sunset brought by the Five-Color Peacock, the pair of lovers soon arrived at Winterfrost.

Ignoring the commotion on the ground, Ron and Serena landed in Campbell’s residence from the sky.

In fact, when the two of them came before Colin Campbell, the marriage proposal had already been satisfactorily finalized. Moreover, the date for the marriage and related matters had already been discussed…

Compared to Ron’s earlier gesture to the Sky Blue Magic Academy, the betrothal gift from the Nicholas family clan to the Campbell family clan was even more extravagant.

When the relevant information from the betrothal gift record was spread, countless people became jealous.

Needless to say, the number of ordinary gifts was uncountable. The rest were all things that a Mage could use, including Magic Stones, pills, various natural treasures… There were many of them, especially a large number of magical weapons, magical treasures, and secret manuals on magical power. Moreover, there was also a sacred weapon among the betrothal gifts!!

Just the list of gifts alone had caused the people outside to discuss for several days.

However, later on, there was “insider news” that the Campbell family had given the sacred weapon and most of the betrothal gifts to Serena. This was equivalent to saying that the betrothal gifts had gone back to the Nicholas family.

… …

The day after Ron had brought Serena back, the entire Campbell family clan boarded the Sacred Mist Ferry and left Winterfrost with the Nicholas family to the Holy Light City.

After landing, the entire Campbell family clan moved into the palace which had originally belonged to the Byron family clan. This place already belonged to the Nicholas family.

However, now the palace had changed owners again.

This palace was also a betrothal gift from the Nicholas family!!

For the next few days, the two families went into full swing to prepare for Ron and Serena’s wedding.

When the Nicholas family clan started to send out wedding invitations, the commotion outside became lively again. Many people were trying their best to get an invitation.

It was as if one obtained a wedding invitation, he had obtained a key to enter the upper circle.
