![Chapter 42 — Lone: The Wanderer [Rewrite] Cover](https://flamesnovel.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/BK7299765694498-400x566.jpg)
Lone and Soph ending up spending a total of three extra days in the completed fort. In that time, Lone had completely finished reading the massive book on Milindo’s history and current situation, earning him a couple of level-ups in Reading Mastery. He’d tried to reread the shorter books or even narrate them aloud for Sophie while she worked on her Body Manipulation. Sadly, neither of these things levelled the skill further, leading him to believe he needed to read different works to gain…-

Lone woke up to find a set of lifeless eyes only inches away from his own simply staring at him. Grinning, the eyes’ owner rubbed her nose against his then gave him a soft peck. "Good morning." "I almost thought you were Sophie for a second there. Is this the first time I’ve even woken up Soph nodded. “Yup. I actually didn’t go to sleep… I, uh, got kind of lost in trying to figure out another use for Body Manipulation.” “Any luck?” Lone asked. Soph smiled wryly and shook her head.…

"It's getting dark..." Lone said as he looked at the horizon that contained a slowly setting sun. Sophie had started getting a headache pretty quickly from using too much of her MP and thus couldn't teleport them anymore. According to her though they had already moved more than a few miles away from the city. This was rather impressive since moving more than just herself made her Teleportation far more MP-intensive. Lone knew what it felt like to have no mana points left, so he had readily agreed when…

"Heavy..." Lone grumbled as he opened his eyes only to greeted by a system message. Lone groaned. “Yeah, yeah, I get it. I’m a beginner.” He must have missed the notification after he and Soph finished training that particular skill. Regardless, he glanced down at the sleeping beauty laying on top of him and he smiled. She yawned and blinked a few times in confusion, seemingly having been woken by his words. Once she recognised that she was on top of him, she smiled. Soph raised her head and…

Apparently, the captain and his soldiers had been tasked with protecting Lady Malik as she toured the southern coast of Milindo. They had stopped their activities to investigate Lone and Sophie’s ship as their duties demanded of them. With their harmlessness and intent confirmed, however, the captain made it clear to Lone that the tour would resume and they would have to follow the galleon. Lone honestly wanted to keep fishing so he asked if the captain wouldn’t mind having a soldier or two stay…

The galleon pulled up alongside Lone and Sophie's ship, clearly intent on investigating it much to Lone’s dismay. Ideally, he wanted to meet civilisation on dry land. At least it didn’t seem to be a pirate-run vessel. That was one of Lone’s concerns but if that were the case he had a feeling their ship would already be sinking. Peering up at the ornate railing of the galleon’s, Lone saw several heavily armoured and professional-looking knights. One of them shouted down at him, "Anchor your…

After spending a good 20 minutes mulling over which magic type to focus on, Lone had finally made his mind up. "Yup. It's gotta be lightning magic, right? It's the only one not of the four basic elements. Plus, who can resist the call of the Dark Side?" he chuckled. “The Dark Side?” Soph asked as she peered over the helm’s railing down at him. He smiled at her. “Unlimited power, young padawan.” She frowned. “You’re not making any sense.” “Haha, I’m not trying to,” he countered.…

Lone spent an entire two weeks working on the ship. Unfortunately for him, creating a boat that could brave an ocean was not a simple thing to do when he was avoiding relying solely on his Creation Magic. Still, he greatly enjoyed the process. He’d never done anything even close to this back on Earth and it was honestly very cathartic for him. He didn’t have to worry about goblins, elves, nearly dying, getting drugged… nothing. He could just happily work away on the boat day-in-day-out while…

Lone stared out at the ocean while wearing nothing more than just his boxers. The light of the moon shined down upon him with the stars and the expanse of space as its backdrop. In his hand was a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. He just stood there, silently listening to the sounds of the waves. After a few more minutes of doing that, he pulled up his notification log. He’d been rewarded for his efforts after his… encounter with Soph. The last thing Lone had expected, in truth, was the…

“You were right,” Sophie said as she slumped down on the sofa, exhaustion marring her complexion. She didn’t even bother taking off her armour, Lone noted. She was just sitting there, panting heavily. “That’s not a good thing,” he replied as he glanced at the seven confused women in the middle of his and Sophie’s living room. “No, it is not, but they are safe for now. We suspect they would have just been offered up as ‘sacrifices’ once more had we allowed them to remain,” Sophie…
