Chapter 1194 Chapter 116. Leaving and Staying

In the end, there weren’t many greenskins shouting “Waaaaaaaahhhh” in Liberty City.

It’s not that Ogar can’t satisfy him, but the “forbidden divine art” will waste ten precious fruits of the original intention.

Rather than satisfying curiosity, it is more important to let Liberty City have its own original fruit tree.

By then, Liberty City will have the Ancient Oak Man, the First Heart Fruit Tree, and the Other World Tree... The people of Liberty City will call it the Elf King's Court.

You said you are from the Elven Court? Me too.

In mid-April, the druids completed the blessing.

After the blessing of the druids, the wheat fields that had just sprouted seemed to be endowed with surging vitality. In just a few days, the tender green wheat seedlings grew at an astonishing speed, with thicker branches and brighter colors. The morning dewdrops hung on the tips of the wheat, sparkling with crystal light.

The vast Gem Bay is full of green, and the air in the wheat fields is mixed with the fragrance of soil and wheat.

Annan was satisfied with the scenery outside the city, and with Olmedo returning from the Franco territory with a large list of trade items, it was time for the druids to leave.

They made one last trip to the west side of the Forest Mountains, not for revenge... but to restore life to the burned forest.

Countless black debris stood on the charred land. The druids buried the debris with heavy hearts and then blessed the dead forest.

Life will be born from destruction, and in a few months, this place will be green again.

Annan will also ensure that this place will not be destroyed again.

As for Green Town and the unemployed woodcutter... they are having a party.

Because one of the trade items that Olmedo negotiated with the Franco Territory was to build a road between Liberty City and Greenleaf Town.

When the road is completed, Green Leaf Town will get rid of the dilemma of being an ignored place on the edge of the territory and will be favored by businessmen.

As for who will build the road, Liberty City will be the obvious choice, and the two forces will each bear half of the cost.

Olmedo also brought back the corpse of the Antler Druid, which made up for their regret, but it also made the journey heavy.

Annan sent the druids to the port. "I think you can set up a base in the Forest Mountain Range to protect the forest and improve the relationship between you two." He tried to persuade them to stay.

"We'll mention it to Treebeard," said Serana.

Annan was somewhat pessimistic, because he didn't think Treebeard and the other druids would agree: an obvious result. Nine of them came out, and eight of them went back... Even if Serana and the others no longer had any prejudice against Free City, what would the other druids with prejudice think?
Annan could only say: "You are welcome to visit us anytime. If you or your friends encounter any troubles in the area, please come to me."

"I will, thank you," Serana said softly.

They boarded the merchant ship one after another. When the Bear Druid passed by, he suddenly stretched out his bear paw and slapped Annan on the chest, leaving an obvious bear paw mark on his wizard robe, and then walked away in Annan's confusion.

"It's marking you. With this palm print, the druids will treat you as a friend when they meet you again."

"I'll keep it well..."

Annan has many such things that represent friendship and nature, such as the leaves of the World Tree, the leaves of the Other World Tree, and the branches of the Ancient Tree of Wisdom...

woo-

The merchant ship set sail. Annan looked at the druids on the deck, and the druids looked back at him.

The bustling port, the prosperous Liberty City, and...

Selana looked towards the City Lord's Mansion as if she had sensed something, where there seemed to be a patch of green quietly emerging.

"Don't look, she's gone." said Dad who was standing nearby.

Annan stood still, like a reef.

"Mr. Swarlow is leaving too."

"Just go... What, who wants to leave!?"

"Mr. Swarlow is leaving."

……

"Who made my beloved Mr. Swarlow angry——"

Annan, who was eager to return home, broke into the professor's office in the old school building, leaving Druid and Selana behind.

"you."

Mr. Swarlow looked at him quietly. "What's wrong with me?"

Mr. Swarlow said nothing and continued to stare at Annan.

Annan gradually understood what he meant: "You have misunderstood me too deeply. In fact, I am a good lord..."

Mr. Swarovski remained noncommittal. Apart from many groundless rumors, this guy was indeed an excellent lord.

"I am going to pursue the path of legend," said Mr. Swarlow.

Annan naturally couldn't say anything to stop him, so he asked him if he needed any help.

"Where's Alice?"

Mr. Swarlow, who was packing up his books, looked up.

Annan said honestly: "She will be safer in Liberty City."

"Alice will take over my position as professor."

"That's good... Don't worry, I will take good care of your daughter."

Mr. Swarovski immediately looked as if he had eaten a fly, and he didn't want to pursue the legendary path anymore.

Da da da--

There was a knock on the oak door of the office.

"Come in." Mr. Swarlow said without looking up.

The oak door was pushed open a crack, and a little head popped in: "Professor Swarovski, our... Dad!"

Cathy cheered and threw herself into Annan's arms.

Annan patted her head: "Why are you here?"

"Let's deliver a letter to Professor Swarlow!" Cathy remembered something important, came out, and handed a stack of letters to Mr. Swarlow.

Mr. Swarlow let all the letters float in the air and open themselves in a way that Annan envied.

Annan, who was standing aside, saw some childish words. These were letters from children, expressing their reluctance to leave and their farewell to Mr. Swarovski.

Mr. Swarlow's heart melted, but he still pretended to be gloomy, looking at Cathy and snorted: "You will miss me?"

Cathy said reluctantly: "Professor Swarlow, everyone knows that you appear to be strict. You always punish us by making us copy and do homework, and you make us stand in the corner and say nasty things to us..."

Cathy spoke as if she didn't notice that Mr. Swarlow was getting uglier and uglier. Finally, she changed her tone and said, "But it's all for our own good."

"Is it……"

The floating letter automatically folded, went back into the envelope, and fell on the table beside it.

"Have you finished the homework I assigned you yesterday?"

"Ah?" Cathy was stunned.

Mr. Swarlow put the books back on the shelf. "I'll check it later."

"what!"

Cathy forced an ugly smile and ran out in a hurry without even saying hello to her beloved "Annan Dad".

Looks like I have to go inform my classmates of the sad news—and catch up on my homework.

"Aren't you leaving?" Annan asked Mr. Swarlow.

"Ah."

"Then what about your legendary journey..."

"It's just finding the way. It doesn't matter where."
