I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 13 13. Sea Tribe Merchants

Kroya led the Kabamon to the warehouse where the ore was stored.

This warehouse is located inside the castle. Because the ore was not processed in time, the ore piled up inside was almost covered with dust.

It looks like a lot.

This is because the weight of this ore is only one-fifth of that of ordinary iron ore, but the defense is almost the same, which is very suitable for some knights or soldiers who need to march quickly.

However, this kind of ore is basically found in the stone. If there is no magician to refine it with magic, it will be very troublesome to refine the original ore.

So there will be a pile that looks quite large, but in fact it is mostly stone, not as much as imagined.

The servant guarding the warehouse lowered his head and handed a book to Kroya respectfully-this is the list of what has been put into the warehouse.

The parchment book looks very worn.

Kloya took it and flipped through it casually. He had no expectations for the accounting methods of this world, but he unexpectedly saw...

There was actually a table listed on it, which clearly recorded the time of day, who delivered how much ore, and how many times.

The handwriting was also very clear, and it didn't look like an ordinary person on a remote island at all. You know, literacy is harder than climbing to the sky for people in remote areas.

'Tsk, did I bump into a talent? He can read and calculate. '

It's always a joy to pick up a treasure.

'More than a thousand pounds, if it is refined, it should be two or three hundred pounds. One pound can be exchanged for five silver coins, which is not a small amount. '

After flipping through it, he glanced at the honest and inconspicuous middle-aged man, "Come with me and help me record something. If you do well, go to the castle to find the butler Robert and let him arrange a job for you."

The middle-aged man was stunned.

The vicissitudes of life on his face were full of unbelievable joy.

He opened his mouth, but only saw Kloya's figure had entered the warehouse, followed by the jumping blue fluorescent algae.

For a moment, he was filled with mixed feelings, so he could only follow in quickly and be more respectful.

After entering the warehouse, Kloya looked at the piled ore and sent the Kabamon directly over.

"Go eat!"

These Kabamon were like seeing a buffet. As monsters, they were strong and intelligent. They cooperated with each other to get the ore on the ground and swallowed it.

The warehouse was immediately in chaos.

The sound of ore falling to the ground, the hum of Kabamon snatching food, and the sound of biting ore...

The chaotic sounds mixed together really made Kloya, who was used to listening to the red song, feel that his brain was about to explode.

He immediately handed the job to the middle-aged man who didn't have time to ask his name.

"See? Just remember it and record the amount of ore they digested and the amount of output.

Give it to Robert later."

Then he walked out of the warehouse impatiently.

It was not that he deliberately wanted to be a hands-off boss, but to give people a chance to show themselves. The middle-aged man had to thank him.

After walking out of the warehouse, Cloya wanted to find a place to sit and rest, but before he sat down.

Butler Rob hurried over.

"Master!"

"What's wrong? Don't panic, talk slowly."

Cloya cast a small spell to calm him and sat down on a big rock with a calm expression.

"What happened?"

Robert took a few deep breaths of air and said with a strange expression: "Sea Clan, there are merchants from the Sea Clan coming!"

"..."

"What?" Cloya was stunned for a second: "Merchants from the Sea Clan? How could there be merchants from the Sea Clan?"

When he came to Hanjiao Island, Cloya knew that this place was only a little distance away from the territory of the Sea Clan-dozens of kilometers in the sea, that is indeed a little distance.

But he never thought that he would meet the sea tribe so soon.

"She said that she wanted to fulfill the ancient contract that the Mage Association had signed. When the mages came to Hanjiao Island, they would trade with the sea tribe."

Rob's expression was also not good.

This kind of thing suddenly appeared, and he was not prepared at all.

"...Ancient contract?"

Now Kroya was really a little headache. He really didn't know anything about this kind of out-of-specification thing. He really hated this kind of situation where he didn't know anything.

He couldn't not go. Judging from the current situation, the sea tribe had an absolute advantage, not to mention this ancient contract.

Why didn't the Mage Association tell him?

He sighed deeply, stood up and tidied his robes, ordered people to fetch his staff, and prepared the carriage.

As a noble mage, he had to remain elegant no matter how panicked he was. He was representing the Mage Association at the moment, and he thought that the other party should not do anything irrational.

...

The place chosen by the sea tribe was on the seashore.

When Croix arrived in a carriage, he saw a mermaid sitting on a reef by the sea with long brown-red hair like seaweed.

She was extremely beautiful, and was completely naked.

Her tail hung in the water, slapping the seawater.

Even her chest was only half-covered by her long hair, and she was surrounded by circles of water magic, like waves surging, shielding her from the scorching sun.

She looked very mysterious.

Perhaps those nervous soldiers and knights could not feel anything, but Cloya felt it clearly - this was a great wizard of at least level six.

In the capital, he was a big shot who could build a wizard tower alone.

The vast water element magic power was like the most loyal soldier in her hands. She only needed to think about it, and the water control ability unique to the mermaids could drown everyone present.

‘Sea merchants? Are all merchants at the level of great wizards? ’

Cloya resisted the urge to complain about the excessive behavior of the Wizard Association and walked forward.

“Hey, you must be Cloya.”

The mermaid found Cloya getting off the carriage, and jumped off the reef excitedly. The fish tail flashed in the water and turned directly into a pair of slender and straight legs.

Her white feet flashed with the azure light of the water element. She walked over quickly and grabbed Cloya’s hand.

"You..."

The slightly cool touch made Kloya feel uncomfortable, and he instinctively wanted to refuse, but it was too late - the mermaid pulled Kloya to run a few steps and jumped directly into the water.

In an instant, he disappeared in the rippling sea water, and there was no trace.

"!!!"

This scene shocked everyone present.

"Master!"

"Lord Kloya!"

Robert took a lot of effort to suppress the order for the knights to go underwater to find Kloya. Mermaids are the kings of the sea, and getting into the water is no different from seeking death.

Besides, Kloya may not be in trouble. What he needs to do is to stabilize the current situation and wait for Kloya to come back.

He looked at the sea, frowned and ordered:

"We stay here and wait, and others should do what they should do. Remember, don't spread this matter... otherwise."

He didn't say much about the rest.

It was really that Kloya was suddenly taken away by the mermaid, and the situation was unclear now. If someone was ready to make trouble, it would be troublesome.
