The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

Colin and Edith stared at each other, with only each other in their eyes. Everything around them seemed to be still, and the witches felt reluctant to interrupt the affectionate gaze between the two.

"Colin, I'm not dreaming." Edith said in surprise, covering her mouth. Before coming here, she thought these witches were going to educate her again.

Colin also stood up instantly, walked forward to hug Edith, touched Edith's hair, and said softly: "I don't know anything about your recent situation. You have suffered..."

"Okay, Wizard Colin, as agreed, you can take Edith away. If she wants to withdraw from school, you can find Morgana to do it yourself later." After that, Gloria and her group of witches left the reception room, but Morgana stayed.

Colin held Edith for a long time before he realized that everyone was exposed. He felt a little embarrassed when he saw the smile in Morgana's eyes.

"Wizard Morgana, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"Well, I've seen your persistence and wisdom. I feel relieved to leave Edith to you."

"You don't have to worry too much about your child. I will take care of her. You should take Edith away from the academy as soon as possible to avoid any problems. I will handle the formalities."

"Thank you, I will be back." Colin bowed to Morgana to express his gratitude, then took Edith out of the academy.

Watching Colin and Edith walking away, Morgana felt that it might not be a good thing for the academy to keep their children. But then she thought that the academy was built on the basis of the three witch holy towers, and with Colin's current strength, he could not challenge the authority of the academy at all.

Thinking of this, Morgana shook her head and went to help Edith go through the withdrawal procedures.

Colin and Edith had a lot to say after leaving the academy, but they knew now was not the time, so they quickly rushed to the city of Spar.

……

Half a month later, Colin and his companion arrived in the city of Spar. Only after they boarded the airship bound for the wizard's main continent did they feel relieved and began to recount the past few years.

Let's go back a few years. After separating from Colin, Edith returned to the Witch Academy with other students.

Edith did not have much life experience, and did not know that their union might result in the fruit of love. During her daily classes at the academy, she always had symptoms of nausea and vomiting. However, Edith did not know that she was pregnant. It was not until her belly gradually grew bigger that she realized something was wrong.

Edith was terrified, thinking she had an incurable disease, so she quickly went to her teacher Morgana for help. Morgana had lived for many years, so how could she not know about this? She knew at a glance that Edith was pregnant.

He had originally planned to keep it a secret until Edith gave birth to the baby, but the news eventually leaked out and was discovered by Alison. Once she knew, the entire academy knew about it. Colin knew what happened next, but this time he was forced to leave without even having the chance to see his daughter, which made Colin very angry.

Colin also told Edith about his promotion to a first-level wizard in recent years, and summoned Charles to meet Edith.

"Have you named our baby yet?" asked Colin.

"It's too late. I was originally worried about how to take care of her, but now I don't have the chance to do so."

"It's my fault that I'm too weak. Otherwise, why can't I take the child away? I still need to improve my strength."

As they were talking, Edith had fallen asleep in Colin's arms. The experiences of the past few years made her feel as if she had just had a dream. If she had known the result would be like this, she would have chosen not to return to the academy after the competition.

Colin could hear Edith's murmurs in his dreams. Looking at the lover in his arms, he could not fall asleep for a long time. After the promotion, he could stay awake for a long time. The practice of meditation could still make him energetic. But after getting used to sleeping, Colin would still lie in bed and sleep unless there was something special.

Colin has experienced a lot since he grew up from a slave, but he is still not working hard enough. All along, he has been smooth sailing and thought he was advancing fast enough. But when he encountered a powerful force, he found that he was far behind and could not even protect his own children. How can he have the face to say that he has gained a firm foothold?

It seems that I have to work harder in the future. I have to compete for some dangerous tasks. High risk also means high returns. Also, the store trade is a bit conservative. The regular income cannot make Colin rich. Without resources, how can he get promoted? The last thing is to expand his social circle and form his own power.

The establishment of the South Sea Hermit Society was a product of Colin's accident. At the beginning, he just wanted to facilitate contact with his friends. You know, if everyone is promoted, they may not be able to stay together. A loose organization is still helpful to keep in touch and share what they have.

After having the idea, Colin's thoughts drifted away for a while. He thought that in the future he would have to build a holy tower like Griman, recruit students and subordinates, which all required money.

Alas, money is a man’s courage. Without money, he has no courage at all.

Well, we must also hold on tightly to teacher Lina’s thighs, and those senior brothers whom we have never met are all forces that we can use.

Making money is Colin's top priority now. It seems that he needs to be more frugal in the future. He cannot afford to support too many women.

Colin finally fell asleep in his wild thoughts.

……

Colin and Edith's return journey was uneventful. During the trip, he took Edith back to the Emerald Isle. His father-in-law Richard told him that he was now an earl. Thanks to Colin's promotion, the Victorian Federal Parliament soon learned of Colin's background. Under the title of the principality after the overall reorganization of the Victorian Islands, the father-in-law's title was promoted, which showed that they valued Colin.

However, Richard and Colin did not care about these empty titles. Richard looked much older when he came back this time. His mother-in-law Lilibet was still muttering about Helen not coming. Colin also sighed a little and said that he would definitely take Helen home to live for a while before he stopped nagging.

Colin then took Edith to meet his parents and his younger sister's family.

When old Kono saw that Colin brought another woman, he didn't want to say anything. Well, his son was capable, it would be fine if he could marry more women, but he still had to have offspring, which was Colin's responsibility.

Colin still hid the fact that he and Edith had a daughter from his father, so that his family wouldn't have to worry about these bad things.

His sister's child Emily has learned a lot, and Colin plans to find an opportunity to train her properly. After all, she is his own relative.

In recent years, brother-in-law George has taken over the management of Emerald Island. Both the population and resources are far more than before, but his own strength has not improved much. Colin knows that he can't persuade them because everyone has different choices.

After living in Emerald Isle for about a month, Colin and Edith set out on their journey back to Grimaldi Island.
