The Most Satisfied Reincarnate

Chapter 6 - Hidden Threat

-Present Time-

  At North Empire Harbor

The port looked crowded as many people came and went; people were bidding for an item they wanted or simply proposed a trade for items they needed. Some sailed back to the sea while others headed to Inner City.

When Bastian's ship arrived and docked, the people at the port concentrated on the newcomers, but they only took a glance, and their priority returned to their respective jobs.

Bastian's ship looked very ordinary. It was just much bigger than the other ships, which made it unique, but when Bastian's family got off the ship, they attracted the crowd's attention again, especially Leona.

"Wow, that woman is stunning. If I can get a wife like that, I would always go home early."

"Stupid, how could she want to be with us ordinary people? A woman like that only wants a man who is stable and has a lot of money."

"What's wrong with being delusional? What if I get a woman like that? Do you dare bet?"

"Buahaa, if you can get such a beautiful woman easily, I will streak around the North Empire."

People started laughing at that, but all became mute when they felt the killing aura. They saw a middle-aged man radiating his aura towards them.

In fact, before Bastian and his family docked, Bastian always used several spells, one of which is to increase his hearing.

At first, Bastian just ignored them, but when one of those people stepped forward and tried courting his wife, he glared at all of them sharply and gave off a bit of fierce intent.

Meanwhile, Leona just chuckled at her husband's behavior; even Alice's eyes started to sparkle.

Then she came closer while holding Bastian's legs.

"Father...tell me, what did you do? Why did those people get scared." She kept shaking his leg.

When Bastian heard his daughter's voice, he withdrew his killing aura and glanced at her with an expression full of love.

"My sweet little girl, you can become a wizard like me if your height has reached as high as your mother," he replied while rubbing his daughter's hair.

Upon hearing Bastian's answer, Alice frowned. "Hump, you will see when I grow up, I will not ask you again." She tried to shake her father's hand away from her head.

Despite his family interaction, Desmond noticed that one person kept looking at them with vigilance, although his father had released his killing intent.

So the pursuer has shown up.

Just in case, system, mark that person and keep tabs on him on the map. Also, scan the city map and create the secondary mini-map for the city.

And place it beside the world map.

Desmond began glancing around the harbor to find more people, but he could only locate one person.

Forget it. Let's just enjoy the view.

He began to pay more attention to people's activities, realizing that people still used a cart to transport goods. The rooftop still used clay and still used a coin as currency.

Like what's written in the book, everything is still manual, from the boats, the vehicles, and the building's design looks very classic.

Looks like magic can replace science.

Desmond then realized that the ship was not using a man as power; hence, the ship's people started to chant some spells that made the ship move forward without a paddle.

Still the same concept with less labor.

Even if it uses magic, you still need humans to cast the spell.

What will happen if you can combine technology with magic?

System, begin to research; combine the spell that I see and learn to make a spell more useful that uses less energy.

If possible, attach the spell to an object and use world energy instead of a human.

Hmm?

It takes a long time.

Ahh…It must be related to the spell data gathering; so far, I've only seen two spells.

Besides, I haven't learned any spells as of yet. Just seeing it doesn't mean I can either.

But it will be an incredible advantage to have...

"Ma...Ma.. don't waste more time, and let's go to church," Leona suddenly spoke, dragging Bastian and Alice.

Before Desmond left, he noticed the tagged person making a suspicious gesture.

Let the show begin.

.

After the Bastian family left, a merchant who'd watched the Bastian family from afar took a cup of water and started chanting a spell.

The water's shadow began to change, revealing a person wearing a scarf and mask.

"Boss, I saw some suspicious-looking people coming in a big ship at the port, and now they are heading towards the church."

"How many? Report the characteristics of each person."

Then the merchant began to describe each member of the Bastian family's characteristics and a few guards with them.

The masked person seemed to lose interest, but when he heard about a woman with beautiful features, magenta-colored eyes and black hair, he began to look for target list paper.

After a few seconds, the masked man carried a sheet containing a woman's image. "Is this the woman you saw?"

The merchant took a good look at the picture while remembering the person he'd seen at the port. When he was sure that was the right person, he nodded.

"Yes, that's her, boss."

The masked man suddenly laughed.

"Good...After three years, you finally appeared. Notify the assassins and tell them to get ready. This time, I will also participate in this mission. Take it easy; you will get paid more."

When he saw his boss's expression, the merchant trembled.

"Yes...boss."

After the water reflection returned to normal again, the merchant immediately began chanting another spell to notify the assassin; he wouldn't dare to be late even a bit.
