<h4>Chapter 201 Want To Move House?</h4>
"Are you sure about this, Adira?" Norris asked. "Are you really going to stay?"
Adira nodded. "I have already made up my mind, Norris. My Master had given me an order to stick with the person who has gained the loyalty of the Domini Mortis. If he survives this Cmity, then our organization will greatly benefit from having a good rtionship with him."
Seeing the strong determination in the Drow''s eyes, Norris no longer tried to convince her to return with him.
"Understood. But prioritize yours and Zion''s safety," Norris stated. "I will leave a seaworthy vessel in one of the enves we discovered long ago. You can take Zion and anyone he wants out of this ce and sail back to the Main Continent. If things really be too dangerous, just knock him out and drag him away by force if you have to."
Adira smirked because that was exactly what she was thinking.
If things really got too dangerous, she would knock Zion out and drag him away by hook or by crook.
"I will surrender the ownership of this ce to you, so feel free to do anything you want with it as you wish," Norris added. "This is bigger than Zion''s warehouse, and it also has more amenities. You can convince him to move his base of operations over here if you like."
"That sounds lovely," Adiramented. "Since I''ll be left alone, I might as well do that to make every day interesting."
Norris smiled faintly as he looked at the time on the pocket watch in his hand.
"We''ll be leaving in three hours," Norris said. "I''ll just say goodbye to Zion before I go. Do you want toe with me?"
Adira shrugged. "Might as well."
A few minutester, the ve Master and the Drow arrived at the warehouse and immediately saw the flurry of activities everyone was busy with.
It didn''t take long before they found Zion, who was currently talking to Cristopher about something important.
"Hey, Zion!" Norris shouted. "I came here to say goodbye."
The seven-year-old nced at the ve Master''s direction before patting Cristopher''s head.
"Sir Norris, thank you for everything," Thirteen said as he walked toward the ve Master in order to shake his hand. "I wouldn''t have been able to do many things if it weren''t for your help."
"Indeed." Norris nodded. "You drove me like a ve even though I was supposed to be the ve Master. You sure are bold, boy."
Thirteen chuckled because he couldn''t refute the ve Master''s words. He had indeed worked Norris like a ve back in the Sumatran Kingdom, but he was the only one whom he could count on to enve the Tigerkins and make them subservient to their cause.
"Can I ask a favor?" Thirteen grinned. "When you get back to the Maind, try to look for information about a teenage boy who goes by the name Mikhail Leventis. He is my brother, and he''s probably wandering all over the ce with a bunch of beautiful girls by his side."
Norrisughed before patting the boy''s shoulder. "Damn you, little devil. Even as I leave, you still order me around."
Even Adira, who was standing beside Norris, found this exchange quite amusing.
"Be safe, Sir Norris," Thirteen said in a solemn tone. "I guarantee you that we will meet again. And please, prepare the finest ves you can find. I will need some good ves once I arrive in the Main Continent."
"Mmm, but no friend discounts, okay?" Norris smirked. "Also, no dragging me to conflicts involving you-know-what."
Thirteen chuckled. "No promises!"
The ve Master couldn''t help but shake his head helplessly, but deep inside, he really hoped that Zion would survive so that they could reunite in the Maind.
Being around the boy was fun, and he wouldn''t mind going on a small adventure with him again in the future.
"Here''s the thing, Zion," Adiramented after the two finished saying their goodbyes to each other. "The ve Market is transferred over to me. But, since everyone will be gone, only I will remain.
"Norris here also made a proper smithy for you guys, and it has some leftover ore that can still be used. So, how about it? Want to move house? I''m sure that the amodation will be to your liking."
Thirteen didn''t even need to think and immediately nodded his head.
"Thank you for the offer, Lady Adira," Thirteen replied. "I''ll happily ept your offer."
The Drow smiled sweetly because she knew that Thirteen would not pass up such an offer. Because of this, she decided to stay until they finished moving to the ve Market.
After Thirteen announced that they would relocate their base of operations, everyone moved like a well-oiled machine and packed things properly.
Since the Wanderers didn''t have many belongings, their preparations were done quickly.
It was only Thirteen''s side that required a lot of heavy lifting.
Fortunately, everyone worked together, speeding up the process.
Three hourster, several wagons made their way to the ck Market.
Since the ck Market spanned a wide area, with many structures and rooms ready to be upied, Thirteen made sure to get the best amodation for himself and his inner circle.
Thirteen, Gerald, Cristopher, Colbert, Riana, Harry all got the best rooms, while Taiga and the others settled for the good rooms avable.
Adira, who was introduced to Gerald by Thirteen, was surprised when she met the seven-year-old''s father.
Just like everyone else, she doubted Zion''s exnation, but in the end, she had no choice but to ept it.
Fortunately, Gerald had no ns of going anywhere aside from the smithy, where Bruno was assisting him as an apprentice cksmith.
After receiving permission from The One, Thirteen nned to teach Bruno the Hammer for All Seasonster that night to increase the Ogre''s proficiency with smithing.
Gerald was also surprised when his son told him that the Ogre would be his assistant. At first, he thought that the Ogre would just do some heavy lifting by bringing him ore to craft.
However, this notionpletely disappeared when Bruno began pounding on a piece of heated metal and started to shape it into a crude shield.
Seeing Bruno''s determination to learn, Gerald felt some sense of kinship with the Ogre and decided to teach him a few things that he learned along the way.
A few hourster, just as Thirteen was aboutto enact his n to give his subordinates some Divine Techniques, someone arrived at ve Market and asked for him to meet them.
Recognizing who hade, Thirteen immediately weed the knocking guests and invited Lord Netero and Arthas to his room to talk in private.
Seeing that the City Lord of Gronar City hade to him personally, Thirteen believed that he had already made his decision about whether he would follow the boy to go to Drada City or not.
