Anton’s family and friends ran to where he was when they heard the noises that came from the battle. They saw the five Spirit Wolves in one of the suite’s corners and the Oak Sage Spirit floating above.

“What happened Anton?” Anders asked his son.

“One of the ghosts entered our room and I managed to detect it. I summoned my Spirit Wolves and the Oak Sage spirit and learned that they could detect invisible things so I commanded them to attack the ghost. That means that those with tiny Spirit Wolves pets would be notified if there were any invisible enemies nearby.”

“That’s good! Since you killed one of the three remaining ghosts, only two more ghosts should be left.”

Suddenly a man appeared amongst them and Anton recognized him as the Supreme Wizard Numinor.

“Where is it?! We detected the ghost in your room, Anton,” Numinor said while looking around.

“I killed it already, sir,” Anton immediately pacified the supreme wizard.

Numinor noticed the ethereal-looking wolves and the spirit floating above.

“Are they the ones who killed the ghosts?”

“Yes, Sir. They were able to see and kill and destroy the ghost.”

“That’s good. Two more and the Amelia can get back to its usual business. Captain Robertson had been urging us to find and kill the remaining ghosts since the rich folks are complaining already, especially those who wanted to watch your movies, young man,” Numinor said but the supreme wizard was smiling.

The supreme wizard Numinor said his goodbye and left immediately saying that he needed to report the destruction of one of the ghosts in the hands of Anton.

After several minutes, an announcement blared out from the hidden speakers in the Amelia. It was the captain informing everyone that all the ghosts were destroyed and the normal business of the ship would now resume.

Everyone cheered since it meant that it was the end of their confinement in the suite. It would have been better if they were allowed to watch movies or television shows since that would alleviate everyone’s boredom but since Anders said that they couldn’t while the ghosts were roaming around, they had to endure being confined in the suite without anything to do. At least those who had hobbies or borrowed books from the ship’s library had something to do but most were getting antsy.

Anton dismissed the Spirit Wolves but allowed the Oak Sage to remain floating in their suite. Not only was the spirit’s light gentle to the eyes, it was pleasant to look at and somehow calming.

Almost everyone asked Anders if they could leave the suite and Anton’s father gave his permission so most ran outside the suite including Colin. Soon Anders, Nemina, and Lucas went outside as well.

Surprisingly, Frederick and Anna remained and said they still wanted to practice their spell casting since they could actually feel their abilities expanding rapidly. Their practice that afternoon was equivalent to several days of magic practice.

Just to be safe, Anton asked Frederick and Anna to keep their doors open and he summoned a single Spirit Wolves to look after the suite. Even though the captain announced that there were no more ghosts, it wouldn’t hurt to be safe.

Anton went inside his room but didn’t close his door. This time though he entered the game personally to continue leveling up his Paladin character. Admittedly, using the on-screen option was faster when it came to level up compared to entering the World of Sanctuary personally but again the most important part of doing it virtually was allowing his body to adapt to using the Paladin’s specific skills.

At around three in the afternoon, he told Frederick and Anna that he was done practicing his wizardry and that he would go outside to relieve his stress.

Anton headed directly to one of the ship’s decks since he wanted to watch the sea for a while. He had been confined inside for a while and wanted to watch nature for a bit. He wasn’t surprised to see that there were a lot of people roaming about. The forced confinement, even though it was only for a short few hours, made the passengers wanting to associate with other people.

He went to the deck where he viewed the whales and the dolphins before and there were a lot of people there that there was almost no place for him in the railings but he managed to squeeze himself. Unfortunately, there was nothing to look at but the endless ocean. There were no mountains or lands in the distance and there were no sea creatures like whales and dolphins nearby so after a few minutes, Anton decided to leave the deck.

He idly walked around and soon arrived where the mages gathered before. When he entered the hall, he was a bit surprised to see that there were a lot of people gathered inside, and based on what he overheard, they were a mixture of mages and normal people.

Anton walked around and one of the mages who bought an enchanted item from the stall that he set up recognized him and invited him to their group.

“Hello, sir. You’re the mage who sold the enchanted items, aren’t you? I must say, your magic items were wonderful. Will you join us?” The mage asked.

“My name is Anton and yes, I was the one who sold you the enchanted item or my sister’s friend sold you one but I created them,” Anton said.

“You’re a magic item crafter?! How talented. My name is Rosa,” One of the mages said.

The others also introduced themselves one by one. The one who invited him was called Edmond. The others were named Alex, and Redmond, and the last one was named Eleanor.

“What are you discussing?” Anton asked.

“The Undead Coalition’s last attack on the Amelia. I’m glad that there were only two victims since based on what I’ve heard before, some ships, when attacked by the Undead Coalition didn’t survive at all or at most very few survive,” Edmond said.

“That wouldn’t happen with the Amelia since we do have an Invincible in the ship. I was more surprised that ghosts managed to claim two lives,” Rosa added.

“At least we’re safe now and in a day or two we will be truly out of the vicinity of Rendindura and could claim that we have successfully left the continent,” Eleanor nervously fanned herself with the fan that she was carrying.

After that, the group talked about different things like how Anton created his magic items and how Edmond admitted that he destroyed the magic item that he purchased in trying to uncover the secrets of the enchantment inside the item but did not learn anything. Anton just laughed when he heard that and said that he expected that to happen.

“Are you not afraid that mages will be able to uncover the secrets of your enchantments?” Edmond asked.

“My magic is too different and if someone can uncover it, I will only be impressed,” Anton said.

After that discussion, they talked about the movies and it somehow slipped that the cinema was owned by Anton’s family. Everyone was amazed when they heard and suddenly everyone asked him about the next film. Anton told them that he was the next two films would be the second and third movies of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and even though they kept asking for spoilers, Anton told them the head of their family warned them to not give any.

When they asked what movies would be shown after the Lord of the Rings, Anton admitted that he didn’t know since it would be his father’s decision.
