In the blink of an eye, Austin had returned to the center of the shadow tide.
Under the protection of the spiritual tree, a safe area was formed at the center of the shadow tide.
Waller had just cast his secret skill in the safe area.
"Lady Nathalie wishes to talk with the Princess Caroline,"
Waller announced.
Austin then immediately teleported Caroline and Priest Callum out of the Slave Tower.
Waller led Caroline into a hidden array to communicate with her mother.
An hour later, Caroline walked out of the hidden array with a tear-stained face.
"My mother will send someone to pick us up soon,"
Caroline said to Austin.
"We can finally return to the Evil Shadow World!"
Priest Callum was so excited that his eyes had welled up with tears.
After all, Caroline and Priest Callum were originally from the Evil Shadow World.
The Evil Shadow World was their hometown where they were born.
"My mother didn't want me to go back to the Evil Shadow World.
But she agreed after I told her that I would die if I couldn't see her..."
Caroline whispered to Austin.
"Yes, I understand.
I'm here with you. You have nothing to be afraid of."
Austin nodded. He then gently wrapped his arms around as he pulled her in for a hug.
They had already known that Lady Katherine had been planning to kill Caroline. If anything, it was dangerous for Caroline to return to the Evil Shadow World at this point.
Caroline's mother of course didn't want her daughter to come back.
However, Caroline really wanted to see her mother right away.
She rested her head against Austin's shoulder, feeling slightly relieved.
Whoosh!
At this time, the spiritual tree was still absorbing and refining the shadow tide that was surrounding it.
Splash!
The spiritual tree was growing by the minute—its body doubling in size.
Austin could feel the white spiritual sense pressure that was visible to the naked eye from the tree.
The power of the spiritual tree was already out of this world.
During the process, Austin's spiritual sense power was also growing just as quickly.
White spiritual sense pressure surro
therine, don't worry. Just wait a little bit longer. I'm sure we'll hear from them soon,"
a servant said as a way to comfort Lady Katherine.
"Yes, you're right.
Chief Stone and Chief Rock are powerful enough to take on that little bitch.
Maybe I just worry too much."
Lady Katherine nodded.
Meanwhile, in another place at the Evil Shadow World, on the top of a beautiful mountain, a palace stood there, its walls red and its tiles green.
In the garden of the palace.
"My poor daughter, you're so silly for wanting to come back just to see me!
It's... It's... What should I do?
If Lady Katherine finds out about this, she's not going to leave my daughter alone,"
a beautiful and well-dressed woman sighed in a panic.
If Austin was here, he would quickly realize how similar this woman was to Caroline—from her face to her facial expressions and even her temperament.
This woman was Caroline's mother, Lady Nathalie.
As one of the Evil Shadow King's wives, Lady Nathalie was a noble figure in the Evil Shadow World.
Due to Lady Katherine's doing, her daughter was sent to another country. They'd been separated for years which left Lady Nathalie depressed and alone.
She was glad to finally hear about her daughter coming home.
However, she still couldn't help but worry at the same time. There was no doubt in her mind that Lady Katherine would definitely do something to hurt her daughter.
