The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

Helen was still somewhat curious about Colin, her half-benefactor. He was totally different from the other knights in the territory, who usually only practiced and spent their free time drinking in the tavern or looking for messy women.

In addition to practicing, Colin actually liked reading. This was something Helen had never expected. However, in order to make things convenient for others, she used some of her small privileges to help Colin, who was not a noble, enter the library to read books for a few days.

Life in the capital, except for a few days of novelty in the beginning, felt less comfortable to Helen than in Emerald Island. It was okay in the Marquis's Mansion, but when going out, one had to pay attention to etiquette, and Helen didn't like this feeling of being constrained.

Fortunately, Nora has always been with her. Oh, and there is also her somewhat weird older sister Rose.

After a while, someone will come to her house to ask about her whereabouts. Helen has some ideas. It is true that she is interested in magic, but it is a bit difficult for a 14 and a half year old girl to leave the principality and go to another empire.

These days, Helen also learned some information about the Istar Magic Organization. It is indeed a good magician organization on the continent. Grandpa Gandalf is a member of that organization, but it is really too far away.

By the way, the Imperial Academy of the Huiyao Empire is also a good consideration. There are many courses offered, and you can study there for a few years and then think about the future.

……

Half a month later, the exhausted Richard and his wife and Gandalf returned to the Marquis's Mansion.

The family is very concerned about their daughter's studies, but Richard and his wife and Gandalf have always had different opinions and have not reached a consensus. This time they also discussed it with Helen very formally, after all, it was Helen who was studying.

"Father, Mother, Grandpa Gandalf, you are here." Helen was very happy to see her family coming.

"Helen, do you like magic so much?" Lilibet was still a little reluctant.

She really wanted to see Helen get married and have children in the future. She didn't want her to study magic as hard as those magicians. Moreover, Helen was already 14 years old and could consider marriage. The most urgent task was to find a good husband's family for her in the royal capital.

"Mother." Helen walked forward and took Lilibet's arm and said.

"Okay, okay, I get it. I won't say anything more." Seeing her daughter's thoughts, Lilibet no longer thought about anything else.

"Helen, you are already 14 years old and it's time for you to have your own ideas. Your family tends to let you stay in the imperial capital to study, but your grandfather Gandalf wants you to go to Istar. Tell me what you think," Richard said.

"Father, Grandpa Gandalf, I think it's better to stay in the Empire. At least it's much closer than the Haoyue Empire."

"Helen, you should know that the strongest magic organization in the entire continent is Istar. Although the Shining Empire also has the Royal Academy and the Magic Ring where you can learn magic, since you like magic, why don't you go to a better place to learn?"

"Grandpa Gandalf, is there any time limit for that quota?" Helen asked.

"No, that spot already belongs to the August family. Even if you don't go, other members of the family can go in the future."

"...I want to keep the place for my family. I'd better go to the imperial capital to study." Helen said after thinking about it.

Seeing that Helen had an idea, Gandalf didn't say anything more.

"So do you want to go to the Ring of Magic Power or the Imperial Capital Royal Academy?"

"As for the Royal Academy, generally anyone who is a noble on the continent can go in and study there, but for the Ring of Magic Energy, we need to think of some ways," Richard asked.

"Father, I will choose the Royal Academy. The family needs a lot of resources to develop the territory. There is no need to owe too many favors for this."

Helen, 14 and a half years old, is very opinionated. Although she is still a little lacking in social skills, she knows the current situation of her family. No matter how much her parents love her, they have to consider the inheritance and development of the family.

After agreeing on Helen's direction of study, Richard took Gandalf to find someone to arrange admission to the Royal Academy.

"Helen..." Lilibet touched Helen's hair, and when she thought that Helen would go to the imperial capital to study alone soon, she couldn't hold back her tears.

"Mother, I'm not not coming back. I'm just going to study for a while." Helen persuaded Lilibet.

……

Relying on the relationship with the Marquis Johnson's Mansion, I was able to quickly contact the Imperial Capital Royal Academy and successfully enrolled. Although there is still some time before the start of the second half of the school year, it is better to hurry up and prepare to set off in a few days.

Helen's journey to school cannot be without protection. After much consideration, Richard arranged for Matthew to bring people to escort her and return after Helen officially enrolled.

During this period, Colin formally submitted his resignation to Baron Richard, quit his position as scout captain, and became a free low-level professional.

After Nora's constant persuasion, Helen agreed to hire Colin privately to escort her to the imperial capital.

So, Helen's team was set up, including Helen, Nora, Rose, guards Matthew, Colin and a small team (10 people) of Emerald Territory soldiers.

……

Time passed quickly, and under the gaze of Richard's family, Helen's carriage went farther and farther away and gradually disappeared from their sight.

……

Xishan Village, Hongmulin Town.

"Old Curnow, what are you busy with?" the villager Jim greeted.

"Yeah, are we going to town?" Kono (Colin's father) asked, looking up.

"Well, my daughter who married into the town misses us old couple a little and wants us to live in the town for a while." After saying that, without waiting for Kono to say anything, he walked towards Redwood Town in a proud manner.

"I&" Kono spat on the ground beside him.

"Why are you so proud? If my son came back, he would also let me go to the town to enjoy life." Kono muttered unconvinced.

Thinking about the bad boy in my family, he went to help Master Lance in the town to fight in the war. It has been almost a year and he has not come back yet.

Just eight months ago, the Baron's mansion sent some Themisces, saying it was hiring money, and there has been no news since then.

Seeing the glow in the sky gradually fade away, old Kono did not delay any longer and limped towards home.

……

"You're back." said Mitty (Colin's mother).

"Well, I ran into Jim's family on the road and talked a little more."

"Now that you're back, let's eat quickly. We're waiting for you."

"Where's Ella?" Kono asked.

"He should still be spinning for others, but he will be back soon."

As they were talking, Ella came back.

"Father, mother."

"Now that you're back, wash your hands and get ready for dinner." said Miti.

……

At this time, Colin, Helen and their group had just left the royal capital of Uxu and stayed overnight in a hotel in a small town.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Nora asked.

"Nothing, I haven't been home for almost a year, so I wanted to stop by and take a look."

The inertia of memory is really strong. The closer he gets to his original birthplace, the deeper the impression his family has on him. Colin knows that he must take a look. It is not only a compensation for occupying someone else's family's body, but also an attempt to help Colin's family improve their lives as much as possible.

"Oh." Nora felt a little disappointed when she heard this. After all, she was homeless.

"I'm sorry for making you sad."

"No, it's nothing, brother. I also want to see your family. I wonder if your parents like me?" Nora asked expectantly.

"Uh..., I'm sure she'll like you. You're so cute, who wouldn't like you?" Nora's mood changed so quickly that Colin could hardly keep up.

Hearing Colin's affirmative answer, Nora was looking forward to meeting Colin's family.
