Chapter 249: New Home
The girl in the hall saw Jackman enter and immediately walked up to him. “Jackman, you’re just in time! Bring your magic wand and we’ll go out!”
Jackman was surprised. “Go where?”
The girl said righteously, “Someone broke in and broke my Wind Guard. I want to lock such a crazy person into a water prison and let him accompany the ugly and smelly sea ghosts in the deep sea.”
Jackman pursed his lips.
He pondered for a moment and said, “Alice, stop fooling around. You’re already breaking the rules.”
Alice said angrily, “Oh my god, Jackman, what are you saying? I’m defending the dignity of Deep Sea Kiss and punishing that crazy person. Now, you’re saying that I’m wrong. Are you serious?”
Jackman touched his forehead. “How did you fight?”
Alice was speechless.
Jackman continued, “Did you make some strange requests, such as not letting others in?”
Alice said, “The Wizard Master is in seclusion. I only asked him to wait. Isn’t that right?”
Jackman said, “Of course not.”
“This is the Wizard World Alliance. We have an agreement between us. As long as the other party is not a Dark Wizard, they can come and go freely. It’s not right for you to restrict others like this.”
Alice pouted.
Jackman touched the top of her head lovingly. “Alright, my sister. Don’t worry about such a small matter.”
Alice said angrily, “But… But that person broke my Wind Guard. This debt can not be settled like this. Jackman, you have to help me!”
Jackman knew that Alice would never stop causing trouble.
After thinking for a while, he agreed, “Alright, alright, alright. How about this? I promise you that if there’s a chance, I will help you teach that reckless brat a lesson. Is that alright?”
Alice pouted and did not say anything else.
Jackman said seriously, “Alright, I think we should not waste our energy on these small matters. It’s going to be the Deep Sea Feast soon. Let’s focus on that. This year’s Deep Sea Feast is extremely important to us.”
“Teacher has high hopes for you and me. Don’t let teacher down.”
…
Golden Harbor Town.
This was a seaside town on the west side of the Gold Coast. It belonged to the Ollen family. The town mainly focused on business and trade. Its permanent population exceeded 100,000. It was truly a big commercial town.
On the west side of Golden Harbor Town, at the lighthouse cliff, there was an old lighthouse.
“Twenty gold coins. Every inch of land in Golden Harbor Town is worth a fortune. You can’t find a cheaper house here. This is not just a house, it’s a whole tower!”
“Don’t look at how it’s a little shabby. It used to be the most important place in this town. The Ollen family spent a lot of effort to build it.”
Merchant Zachary on West Street introduced it to Heath indifferently.
It was a typical medieval lighthouse. The theme building was a cylindrical tower, about four stories high. Under the tower was a small wooden house, where the former tower keeper lived.
Heath walked in and looked around.
The small house was an ordinary wooden house. There were bedrooms on both sides and a living room in the middle. It was about thirty to forty square meters in total. Although it was not big, it was very comfortable to live in. There was also a small fence yard outside. In the future, he could plant some materials in the small yard.
As for the lighthouse at the back, it was the most suitable to be used as a laboratory. In the dead of night, he could stand on the top of the lighthouse and enjoy the sea breeze while enjoying the passing of time.
The more he looked, the more satisfied he was. Heath did not hesitate anymore and nodded. “Twenty gold coins?”
As he spoke, he took out 20 gold coins and handed it over.
Zachary did not receive the gold coins immediately. Instead, he was stunned. This foreigner did not dress like a wealthy person, so he had been half-heartedly promoting the sale. He did not expect that the other party would take out the gold coins so readily.
‘I actually sold this shabby place for 20 gold coins?’
Zachary was in disbelief. The expression on his face became much more cordial. He respectfully received the gold coins and put on a cordial smile. “Okay, okay. Young Master, you have made a wise choice. Believe me, you will like this place.”
After a pause, he continued to ask, “Oh right, I haven’t asked yet. Young Master, are you alone?”
Heath nodded and asked, “Why?”
Zachary said, “No, don’t misunderstand. It’s just that this place hasn’t been inhabited for a long time and needs to be cleaned up. In addition, this place is a little old. If you want to live here, it’s best to renovate it. Do you need me to recommend a few craftsmen for you? They are the most outstanding craftsmen in the city.”
Heath shook his head. “There’s no need.”
This place indeed needed to be repaired, but it was a piece of cake for Heath, who had mastered magic.
Zachary asked, “Are you sure?”
He tried to persuade him again. “With all due respect, professional work should be left to professional people to handle. The big ones are all gone, so it’s not worth saving these few gold coins. If it’s a mess, you’ll still have to find someone to fix it. Not only will it waste your energy, but it’ll also cost you more money. Don’t you think so?”
From Zachary’s point of view, Heath was clearly preparing to do it himself.
Heath shook his head again. “Thank you for your kindness, but there’s no need.”
Zachary said embarrassedly, “Alright, alright.”
“I’ll go and handle the paperwork for the house for you right away. It’ll take about two to three days. I’ll send the documents over to you later. When that time comes, you can tell me anytime if you change your mind.”
Zachary was not in a hurry. He had seen too many clients who thought they could handle it, but in the end, they all took out the gold coins in their pockets in frustration.
Heath nodded. “Okay.”
Zachary left.
“Heath, this place really needs to be repaired. Otherwise, I bet it will leak.” Nina pointed at the hole in the roof and said, “Moss has grown on it. The dust and garbage in the house also need to be cleaned.”
Heath said, “It’s a piece of cake.”
As he spoke, he glanced left and right, and his gaze fell on the broom in the corner.
He raised his right hand and snapped his fingers lightly
At the same time, the broom in the corner immediately came to life and began to clean automatically.
Splash!
The crisp sound of water flowing could be heard, and a large water ball appeared in the room. The wooden bucket next to it flew over immediately. The water ball fell into the wooden bucket and filled it to the brim.
Towels, rags, mops, and all kinds of tools came to life. The ones that cleaned the table, the ones that swept the floor, and the ones that dusted.
In just a short moment, the dirty room was cleaned clean.
Clap, clap, clap!
Nina clapped her hands. “A very wonderful item was activated.”
Heath’s gaze fell on the hole in the roof. “It’s still too early to praise it.”
As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and pressed them to the ground. Then, Nina’s jaw dropped.
