Chapter 202
"Finally!" Anfey said, looking at Moramatch in the distance .


After he attacked the Shansa army and fought with the mercenaries, he spent another two days in the forest . Shansa Empire must have realized they were not easy targets, and sending small teams would achieve nothing . The search ended and no one looked for trouble with them .
After making sure the Shansa soldiers had all left, Anfey, Suzanna, and Riska turned towards the northeast . They were all very worried about Moramatch . If Dardanibry really decided to go to Moramatch, those who were left there would be no match for an archmage . Even though the three of them would not be much help, but they had to return .
Anfey had long learned that fear solves nothing . What was coming would come no matter what . Sometimes, being fearless created opportunities . The most precious things he could have were courage and hope . Without those, he was as good as dead .
Furthermore, Anfey did not want to run forever, or else he would have stayed on the island . Choosing to leave with Saul and Ernest and becoming Saul’s student meant that he had responsibilities . Sometimes he did not have a choice . Anfey just wanted to be proud and not ashamed when he met Saul again .
Anfey always imagined the worst possible outcome when he made a plan, even though he knew that it would be an unlikely outcome . The Arch Druid Bruzuryano seemed like an important person . Judging from the way he spoke, he was in good relations with Saul . Slanbrea appeared friendly as well . As long as they were around, Dardanibry would not do anything .
Killing Anfey might not be a big event, but murdering all the residents of Moramatch would make headlines . Dardanibry was a court mage and should know very well how the act could impact him and Shansa Empire .
Even though Anfey knew it was unlikely that Dardanibry would attack Moramatch, he still felt relieved when he saw the town .
Suzanna walked besides Anfey and smiled sweetly when she heard him call Moramatch home .
"Riska, go check on the tunnel entrances," Anfey said .
"Alright," Riska said, raising into the air .
"Suzanna," Anfey called quietly .
"Yes?"
"What do you think a home should look like?" Anfey said carefully . He wanted to know if Suzanna had a particular preference . This way, he could decorate a home according to Suzanna’s taste, and surprise her .
"A large, soft bed, a warm heart, a clean kitchen . That is all I want in a home," Suzanna said .
"Kitchen? You know how to cook?"
"Of course I do," Suzanna said proudly .
"I wish I could try your cooking sometimes," Anfey said, smiling . "But, Suzanna, it seems like you are missing something in your home . "
"What is it?"
"Think," Anfey said .
"Really, what is it that I'm missing?"
Anfey leaned over and whispered into her ear, "me . "
Suzanna blushed furiously and pushed him . "Who cares," she said nervously .
"Oh, and another thing . "
"Shut up," Suzanna said, jumping away from Anfey and covering her ears with her hands . "Shut up . Don’t you even dare . If you have nothing serious to say, don't say it at all . "


"I am dead serious," Anfey said . He looked at Suzanna, and kept his face as sincere as possible .
"What is it this time?" Suzanna frowned and asked .
"A kid, or a few kids," Anfey said laughing . He ran down the hill . Every step he took he was stepping on a wind blade . For people who really wanted to perfect their skills, there were plenty of opportunities to practice in everyday life .

Suzanna looked at Anfey and smiled . If Anfey was still there, she would be embarrassed . Now that he wasn’t watching, there was nothing to hide . Anfey was right about what she wanted in a home .
"Why aren’t you chasing me?" Anfey stopped and asked . "Why are you smiling like that?"
"Why do you care?" Suzanna asked, lifting a brow .
"You looked like a fox that just ate a chicken," Anfey said . "Ah, I see . You want kids too, don’t you?"
Suzanna thought that Anfey would try to run if she chased after him, and would not finish his sentence . Anfey, however, did not try to run . He just stood there and waited as Suzanna walked down to him . The two of them stared at each other, but neither moved . Some girls liked the little things, like hugs and kisses, while some were more introverted . Suzanna would usually be the latter . She would lash out only when she was too embarrassed . Now, as she was staring into Anfey’s eyes, she did not know what she should do .
Anfey raised his hand to her head . "Suzanna?" he murmured . He voice was deep and gentle, and made Suzanna’s heart flutter .
"What is it?" Suzanna asked .
"Your dream is also my dream . I will try my best to make it a reality . "
"What…" Suzanna widened her eyes, realizing what Anfey was implying . She reached over, embarrassed, and tried to grab his arm .


Anfey jumped back to avoid her advance . He jumped onto a wind blade that propelled himself a dozen feet away from her .
"Stay exactly where you are!" Suzanna called angrily . She summoned her combat power and chased after Anfey . Perhaps it was because she trusted Anfey too much, she allowed him to trick her time and time again .
The two of them ran into the town, and reached the back of the town in no time . This spooked Riska, who was checking the markers they left there before their departure .
"Did something happen?" he asked anxiously .
"Yes," Anfey said .
"No! Riska, don’t listen to him," Suzanna said, following Anfey .
"What?" Riska frowned and asked .
"Don’t worry about it . "
Riska sighed and shook his head . Then he turned around and returned to checking the markers .
"No one has been here, right?" Anfey asked . He had reminded Christian several times that they should leave the tunnels unless Anfey, Suzanna, and Riska returned . If the markers had disappeared, it must be that outsiders were there .
"It’s perfect," Riska said, walking towards the tunnel entrance . "No one’s been here since we left . "
Anfey summoned his fire sword and followed Riska . The three of them quickly found the gate to the tunnels and knocked on the large metal door .
After a few moments, a quiet voice asked, "Who is it?" If the three of them weren’t standing still, they would have missed it .
"It’s us," Anfey called .
"You guys are back!" Anfey recognized Christian’s voice . "Quickly! Open the doors . Feller, go tell everyone . They’re back!"
The door opened slowly, accompanied by a cacophony of chains rattling . After Anfey, Suzanna, and Riska walked through, the door closed slowly .
About a hundred feet away, Christian appeared from one of the side tunnels . "Welcome back!" he said happily . His voice was very high, and he was walking very fast, with his arms out . Christian was normally a reserved and quiet person, and did not easily let his emotions show through . His actions now proved that he was overjoyed .
Anfey walked over with a smile and embraced Christian . He looked at Christian and said, "You are so pale . You look like a proper toy boy now . "
Christian shook his head and said, "If you lived here, you would be too . "
"How is everyone? Is everything alright?"
"Everyone is good . Let’s go back and talk . Oh, and Black Eleven is back . "
"He’s back? I thought he had stayed in White Mountain City," Anfey said, surprised . Bruzuryano had told them that Black Eleven was attacked on the way to White Mountain City and suffered serious injuries . He had survived, but Anfey expected him to stay in the city until he was in better condition to travel .
"If it wasn’t for the High Priest of Light, Slanbrea, he would still be in bed," Christian said . "He’s worried about you guys, but he’s also worried about us . So he came back after just two days of rest . Come on, everyone will be so happy that you guys are back . "
