I really just want to hang out in the magic world.

“I think this boat is pretty well made.”

"... Humph, stop flattering me."

Anlago said in a gruff tone in order to hide his joy.

Ruan Xiaozhe sighed secretly.

"It's sad that the only solution now is that little boat."

He couldn't use enchantments now, nor could he make friends with the ice elves immediately, so he could only rely on the ship.

Even if it's unreliable, what can we do? We have to give it a try.

“How many people can this boat carry?”

"Twenty people are more than enough!"

Anlago's confidence made Ruan Xiaozhe even more worried. He exaggerated about the boat that looked like it could barely carry ten people, which made Ruan Xiaozhe even more uneasy.

"That's great, Vodanaz, you come and try it!"

Ruan Xiaozhe tried his best to remain calm, and his originally stern face became even colder at this moment.

Anlago couldn't help but shrink his neck.

"...Did I say that too harshly?"

"Before that... I want to see how you row by yourself. Once we're in the boat, you may not be as comfortable as you would be rowing alone."

When Anlago heard this, he immediately became full of fighting spirit.

He threw off his coat and jumped into the boat.

"Watch carefully!"

Anlago expertly grabbed the two carefully polished oars and began rowing.

The sailless boat glided on the calm lake.

Anlago's friends were amazed.

"That's great, Anlago!"

Anlago glided across the lake, freely, as if the entire lake was his territory.

When the students of the White Tiger Tower saw Anlago rowing, they felt the long-lost freedom, as if this was no longer a magic academy, but a tranquil and beautiful lake.

"The boat is watertight."

While the students of White Tiger Tower were immersed in romance, Ruan Xiaozhe was analyzing calmly.

Most importantly, the boat didn't leak.

Moreover, the other party had been paddling on the lake for more than ten minutes, and no monsters or skeleton principals appeared, so it seemed that this place was relatively safe.

"Well, Vodanaz, do you acknowledge Anlago's skills?"

"Sorry, not yet."

"Why!"

“Anyone can row a boat by themselves, but can the boat still be so stable with one more person on board?”

Ruan Xiaozhe's provocation made Anlago's friend shout angrily:

"Anlago! Vodanaz asks you, can you maintain the same level after carrying me?"

"Well, of course!"

Anlago immediately rowed the boat back to the shore, took the student on board, and shouted:

"Watch out, Vodanatz!"

"Is it really possible? With one more person on board, can the boat still row so well?"

Ruan Xiaozhe deliberately provoked Anlago, and he was indeed irritated.

"Watch it!"

Anlago paddled harder than before, and the boat glided across the lake at high speed. He paddled so hard that sweat dripped down his face and muscles in his arms bulged.

In the next twenty minutes or so, Ruan Xiaozhe kept "encouraging" Anlago with words like "it's not clear yet", "everyone can perform well for a few minutes", and "it may be exposed soon".

Only after confirming everything he wanted to confirm did Ruan Xiaozhe nod.

"Perhaps it is not impossible to make friends with the guys in the White Tiger Tower."

……

“Huh…Huh…Did you see that…This is my strength…”

"Okay, I give up." Ruan Xiaozhe spread his hands.

His words made Anlago so happy that he wanted to shout out, but Anlago was too tired to shout out, and could only collapse on the grass and gasp for breath.

After resting for a while, Anlago finally recovered his strength and stood up.

"Then I'll try it too. You can take me on a ride and row."

"...Again?"

Anlago couldn't help but make a faint sound.

Several times of forced labor made Anlago a little scared.

Seeing the other party hesitate, Ruan Xiaozhe simply encouraged him and then used the same trick again: "Don't you have confidence?"

"Get aboard!"

Anlago immediately stood up and jumped into the boat.

His friend Dukma asked worriedly, "How about I go down?"

"Dukma! Don't you believe me?"

"…I'm sorry, Brother Anla, I shouldn't have taken your honor lightly!"

"Let's go quickly." Ruan Xiaozhe said coldly. He had no interest in the friendship between the two knights.

"First confirm the location of the island."

Now that the boat was basically safe, he wanted to confirm the location of the island and ensure the route forward.

Anlago gritted his teeth and began to row, and the boat slid onto the lake again.

Ruan Xiaozhe frowned and concentrated on observing everything on the lake.

"It would be nice to have a telescope."

Things would be much easier if you could use artifacts or magic.
