Princess Lily Arrives

Chapter 145 Magic Boy

Lily and her team continued to move forward along the coast. Despite the dual challenges of sea monsters and pirates, everyone's morale was still high. The sea breeze blew gently, and the sound of waves hitting the rocks seemed to be the prelude to their next adventure.

"I really hope that next time I can encounter something fun, and not those scary monsters again." Xiaopang complained.

"Sometimes, what you hope for will appear in a way you never expected." Feng Yang said meaningfully.

At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly flashed in the sky, and a figure fell rapidly from the sky and hit the beach not far from them. The team immediately ran over to check and saw a ragged boy lying on the sand, holding a very ordinary-looking wooden stick tightly in his hand.

"This kid fell from the sky? Could he be the legendary magic apprentice?" Feifei asked puzzledly.

Lily went forward to check on the boy. He seemed to have just fainted and was not seriously injured. Lily gently patted his face: "Hey, wake up, are you okay?"

The boy opened his eyes dazedly and saw a group of strangers surrounding him. He sat up in panic: "Who are you? Where is this?"

"We also want to ask you, what happened that you fell from the sky?" Jax asked curiously.

The boy blinked his eyes, recalled for a moment and said: "I am an apprentice at the Magic Academy, my name is Xiao Ai. I was practicing a flying spell just now, but something went wrong and I fell down like this."

"Flying spell? It sounds amazing." Xiaopang's eyes lit up. "Can you show me?"

Xiao Ai was a little shy, but he nodded, stood up and chanted a spell, and the stick drew a few rays of light in the air. However, for some reason, his spell didn't seem to work, and he fell to the beach again.

"It seems that your flying spell needs some practice." Lily couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Ai blushed and stood up to brush off the sand on her body: "I'm sorry, maybe I fell just now and the spell didn't work."

"It's okay. We don't have anything urgent to do anyway. Why don't you come with us? Maybe you can help us." Lily invited enthusiastically.

Xiao Ai nodded gratefully, and Lily's team had a new member.

During the following journey, although Xiao Ai's magic skills were not very proficient, he practiced hard and gradually mastered some small spells. He used magic to create shells of various shapes on the beach, making everyone laugh.

"Look at my latest work, the shell dragon!" Xiao Ai waved a wooden stick, and a little dragon made of shells instantly appeared on the sand, looking lifelike.

"That's great, keep it up," Lily encouraged.

Suddenly, another ship appeared on the sea in the distance, but this time it was not a pirate ship, but a luxurious merchant ship. The ship was full of colorful flags, which looked very festive.

"What kind of ship is that?" Feng Yang asked curiously.

"It's a merchant ship. Let's go see if there's anything interesting." Lily suggested.

When everyone came to the merchant ship, they saw that the ship was very lively, with a wide variety of goods on display, and a small magic performance stage, which attracted many people to watch. Lily and Xiao Ai walked closer to watch, and saw an old magician performing various fancy magic, which made the audience laugh.

"It seems like he is much better than me." Xiao Ai said enviously.

Lily patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged. You will become very powerful too."

Just as everyone was enjoying the performance, there was a commotion on the ship. A man in black quietly slipped into the cargo hold, seemingly looking for something. Lily noticed something was wrong and motioned for everyone to follow.

"That man in black is suspicious. Let's go see what he is doing." Lily whispered.

Everyone quietly followed the man in black into the warehouse, only to see him rummaging through some boxes, seemingly looking for something specific. Lily signaled everyone to disperse and surround the man in black, preparing to capture him in one fell swoop.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Lily suddenly asked loudly.

The man in black was startled. He turned around and saw Lily and her team. He immediately drew his dagger and said, "Don't come over here, or you won't blame me for being rude!"

"We just want to know what you're looking for," Lily said calmly.

The man in black hesitated for a moment, and suddenly rushed towards Lily. Lily quickly dodged sideways, and Jax and Feng Yang immediately stepped forward to stop the man in black. Xiao Ai also raised the stick, ready to cast magic to assist.

"Don't hurt me, I'm just here to take back what belongs to me." The man in black struggled.

"What are you looking for?" Lily asked.

The man in black hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed: "Well, what I'm looking for is a magic crystal. It is our family heirloom, but it was stolen by the owner of this ship."

Lily thought for a moment and decided to believe him: "We will help you find the magic crystal, but you can't use violence anymore."

The man in black nodded in agreement. So Lily led the team to search the warehouse with the man in black. Soon after, they found the sparkling magic crystal in a hidden box.

"That's it!" the man in black said excitedly.

"We'll give it back to you, but you have to promise not to do bad things again in the future," said Lily.

The man in black nodded gratefully and put away the magic crystal: "Thank you, I will keep my promise."

After the matter was resolved, Lily and her team continued to hang out on the merchant ship, enjoying a rare relaxing time. Xiao Ai showed some small spells on the magic show stage and won a lot of applause.

"It seems like you're making progress." Lily said with a smile.

"Thank you for your encouragement. I will continue to work hard." Xiao Ai answered confidently.

As night fell, everyone had dinner together in the open-air restaurant on the ship and talked about their experiences and dreams. Lily felt that she not only made new friends on this trip, but also learned a lot of new things.

"We will face many challenges, but as long as we unite as one, we will be able to overcome them." Lily raised her glass, "Cheers to our friendship and adventure!"

"Cheers!" everyone responded in unison.

They spent a pleasant night at sea. The starry sky was bright and the sea breeze was gentle. Lily knew that this was just another small chapter in their adventure journey. There would be more unknowns and challenges waiting for them in the future.

The next morning, Lily and her team said goodbye to the merchant ship and continued to move forward. The sea breeze and waves remained the same, their adventure story continued, and this unexpected gain also made them full of expectations and confidence for the future.

"There will definitely be more interesting things waiting for us ahead," Lily said with a smile.

"Of course, we are fearless adventurers!" Xiaopang said loudly.

Everyone laughed and continued to move forward to meet new challenges and opportunities.
