Chapter 42: The Whereabouts of Sea Dragon

....

Eren sat atop the Phoenix which was gliding gracefully through the cloudless sky.

The wind tugged at his hair as he gazed down at the map in his hands.

This map was the reward he had received for selecting the option that asked him to free Xiu Ying, even though she didn't need to be freed.

"This is troublesome."

After briefly observing the map, Eren let out a sigh. Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com

In this map, he was able to see the location of the Sea Dragon. The location was the most problematic part of it.

He hadn't thought that it was going to be easy, but the location made things even more complicated for him.

The entire continent was so huge, that it could be called a world of its own.

There were four regions in this continent, each having an overlord each. And each of these regions were connected to the ocean through their outer regions.

It would have been fine if the Sea Dragon was in the Eastern Ocean. He could have easily gone there as this entire region was under the control of the Great Demon Sect.

He could even have a lot of privilege with his identity as the Sect Elder who was accompanied by the Great Elder.

Unfortunately, the map created a completely different picture.

The Sea Dragon's habitat was in the Southern Ocean! It was the ocean connected to the land ruled by the Mythical Heroes Academy.

It was ruled by the people who had sent him as a spy to the Great Demon Sect.

It was also the land of the people that hated the people of the Eastern Continent the most. The Mythical Hero Academy had a hostile relationship with the Great Demon Sect as well.

It was certainly easier for a Hero to become stronger as all they had to do was to control the inheritance they received through their Bloodlines.

Meanwhile, it was harder for the Cultivators as they had to start from the bottom. They had to learn and create their own path.

Both the continents had different belief systems. One believed that talent was more important and Bloodline was Secondary.

The other believed that Bloodline was more important and talent was secondary.

Throughout the years, the conflict between the two continents had kept growing.

Eren knew some of this information thanks to what he read, but he didn't know more than that.

The Main Character had never actually entered the Southern Continent in the first two hundred chapters after all.

Eren kept the map back and thought about his future actions. He couldn't abandon his plan now.

Even though it was dangerous to infiltrate the Southern Continent, it was important to catch the Sea Dragon. Only then could he use the Memory Fragment.

While Eren was lost in thoughts, he noticed a sweet scent wafting through the air.

He felt slight weight on his lap as arms wrapped around him, a head resting on his chest.

He gazed at the woman who was hugging him like a woman deep in love.

She had been looking at him for a long time, thinking that he was going to pay attention to her. But when he didn't do that she couldn't control herself and took the lead.

"Is something troubling you?" she asked softly.

Eren also wrapped his hand around her as he answered, "I suppose you can say that."

It was too late to leave her. And if he kept pushing her away, he didn't know what she might do.

It was an obsession that could harm them both in the end. So he could only accept her. It was also partially his fault for rejecting the options and entering the library after all.
