After the six ran around and finally calmed down, everything became clear.
Jake, Harriet, and Arai were surprised to hear the story that as soon as they received a message from them, Zaha immediately left for the Euclase Continent.
Even though the plan was, that Jake would come to pick Zaha himself to the East Continent if he received a reply from Zaha, while if necessary persuade him, by all means, to come with him to Euclase.
Jake and Harriet looked at each other, blinking at each other realizing how incredibly lucky they were.
"But why? Did you have business in Euclase that you immediately set off on your own? Even though we were planning to pick you up,” said Jake confusedly.
"Too long. Complicated. I came myself to be faster,” Zaha replied in short words.
But how did Zaha know about the details of why they wanted to bring him to Euclase? Was…
Harriet remembered that Zaha healed Arai's younger brother in the past. So, didn't that mean he was already so talented from a very young age? This Zaha Serpentes before her looked to be no more than thirty years old…From his appearance alone, he looked the same age as Ezekiel… or Liam. But Liam could not be used as a comparison, because he was almost 100 years old.Although Harriet was curious and suspected that this young man had a crush on her best friend, she didn't want to take the risk. She could not leave her best friend alone with a man who was not clear about his intention.So Harriet ended the day's meeting and returned to the castle with hope filling her chest, followed by Arai."By the way, Harri," Arai called out to her in the carriage. “What does 'Wangfei' mean? I've been hearing them call me 'Wangfei' ever since."Harriet smiled mischievously.
Harriet invited Arai to go on a culinary tour in the north. Since she had been very busy and had absolutely no time to play, the moment was perfect when Arai was by her side. Arai was the second strongest Knight in the Empire, so they didn't even need bodyguards. This time, not only did they go out to eat, but they also visited a boutique sponsored by Almandine. Harriet and Arai were warmly welcomed by the enthusiastic boutique staff. It almost felt like they had come to their favorite boutique in the capital. Arai tried on a lot of northern clothes, some warm dresses, and fur coats. It was still summer in the north, but the boutique staff said that fur coats would soon be needed again. "The winter in the North is two months longer than the winter in the capital. Autumn and spring are colder when compared to autumn and spring in other places," explained one of the staff. "Ah, I heard that sum
In a wide valley in the middle of the icy mountains, there was a garden with transparent crystal trees. The sun's light penetrated and reflected on the crystal trunks, making the place so sparkly and beautiful. A slender old man with a hunchbacked body was extending his hand at one of the fruits of the crystal trees. The fruit was as big as an apple with a shape that looked like a goose egg but was golden in colour. WHOOOSH! The sound of strong wind was clear, causing the old man to turn his head towards the south. "Hmm, someone is coming…" Above the valley, the sky looked blue, clear without clouds. But all around him, a spiralling mist surrounded the valley, creating a violent blizzard wall, blocking people from passing through to enter the garden. SRRT SRRRT SRRRRRRT The old man squinted his eyes, l
Harriet never wanted to use Arai to ask Zaha to treat her husband. The reason why she involved Arai was to find out what Zaha wanted from Arai. She needed to confirm whether it was sincere or not.She threw the bait not for her own benefit, moreover, using Arai for her husband's treatment was not right."Did you come here solely because you knew that if you came, you would be able to meet Arai again?" Harriet's question made both Zaha and Arai flinch.Zaha dreamed of Arai because the 'Wolf King' needed his help. That meant, because he was needed by Liam, he could meet Arai again.But, if he came here solely for Arai's sake, Harriet wouldn't be able to easily persuade him to treat Liam.Harriet's words slowly made Zaha's face blush even more, and the man started to lower his head because he couldn't bear to look at Harriet out of embarrassment.As Arai's face
The boy didn't understand why, but somehow he believed in the man. He kept walking following this stranger because he said he could show him the Daffodil Flower. Until finally they came to a wide plain covered with frozen grass… but Alban couldn't find a single daffodil growing, no matter how far he walked. "Daffodils grow in early spring," said the man, who was now following behind him. "It's still mid to late winter." Alban furrowed his brows. Then why did his village elders tell him to leave in the middle of a storm to carry out a task that was doomed to failure? Were they trying to kill him? Suddenly, the man took out something that shone so brightly from under his robes. The light was so blinding that it forced Alban to narrow his eyes. But when the man showed it to Alban, Alban was so stunned that he widened his eyes, no longer afraid of the
People who were not of the blood of the Antarcticite clan who consume them would also not get the same effect as them.The Crystal Tree Garden became the secret of their village… and as time went on, the people of the Antarcticite clan grew stronger. They also became arrogant with their capabilities and unique blessings. After leading the clan for nearly half a century, Alban then passed the title of Clan Head on to his son, Altan. But no matter what he did, he couldn't control the behavior of the young man and the generation below him. Alban didn't want their clan to stand out, but time and time again, he'd heard of his clan's youths looking for trouble on the edge of the icy mountains. The last time was a big incident ten years ago, where young people attacked a ship that passed through the bay connected to the Cold Blue Ocean. He was very angry and punished all the young people. Howev
"Are you okay?" asked Ezra, seeing Ezekiel was deep in his reverie. Ezekiel shook his head. "I'm fine," he answered slowly. “Mm, are the after-effects of the Sorcery still bothering you? There are a lot of negative thoughts in your head, huh?” like a doctor analyzing, Ezra spoke while placing her hand on his chin. “I had many troublesome dreams,” Ezekiel sighed, confessing slowly. "We'll talk about that later, Saintess Ezra." Hearing Ezekiel's words, Ezra smiled sweetly. "Okay, then accompany me to smoke in the church." Ezekiel narrowed his eyes in disbelief, while Ezra just chuckled. Everyone saw their strange closeness, and how Ezra seemed to be trying to seduce Ezekiel in her own way. The nobles who attended the opening party of their engagement event also felt that Ezekiel seemed to be getting better.
Liam patted his shoulder from the hardened pieces of snow. Finally, the problem with the 'Barbarians' of the Northern Mountains was resolved. They had promised not to interfere with the ship trade routes to the East Continent again. He saw the bloodstain on his shirt and sighed. He didn't want Harriet to see him like this. So he jumped into the sky and quickened his pace into the tower to change, hoping that Harriet wouldn't see him before he was ready. This time he was lucky. The room at the end of the tower was empty, and Harriet was probably doing something in the castle because Liam could faintly sense her presence. After killing Cecilia, it felt like his body was much lighter than usual. Since Cecilia was a Sorcerer… his body became a little more comfortable after killing her? If Cecilia corrupted him with the Sorcery, it might be true that after he killed her, his body would get better.
