Chapter 958 The Children

Just think about it, they were still children no matter what angle you look at them. Yet, killing seemed normal to them. The mortals in Dragon's Plate was strange, but the newcomers didn't expect that they were this strange.

Many who saw this were new visitors of the plate. And seeing that, some had decided to leave immediately. The plate had no rules regarding the exit of visitors, so one could leave without notice.

Those who had stayed for long now shook their heads. This drunk man had thrown his precious life away like that. Although he was disowned, having the Blue Sky Emperor in his tails was enough to deter those people from hurting him. At the very least, those lowranks wouldn't dare to belittle him.

Unfortunately, he was too stupid that he couldn't see the danger in front of him.

Fiarra wasn't used to such killings and by children at that, so her expression was frozen with her hands covering his mouth.

"That's why you cannot bully the mortals here in the plate." Jin Rou chuckled, "One wrong move and you're gone. Not even the strongest emperors will be able to save you."

"But how come those children can kill?" She asked. It's one thing that adults could do it, but children? Not to mention, it looked like they were very used to it!

"Because they have to protect themselves." Jin Rou explained, "In a group of strong people, others will always find who is the weakest among the group."

If you want to test the waters, usually you would go for the weakest of the group to see whether you could take them on or not. By the drunk man's move a while ago, he aimed to see how capable the mortals here was since he didn't buy what others said.

"Do you mean that someone manipulated that drunk man to cause the scene?" Fiarra was a bright individual. So, she could immediately connect the dots of what Jin Rou said.

Jin Rou smiled and walked towards the kids, "Smart. I don't know who manipulated him, though. And I don't give a damn."

The drunk man was not connected to him in any way. So why should he give a damn about him?

Fiarra followed Jin Rou. They were nearing the Kids who were still playing with the corpse which was turned into a ball.

Jin Rou stopped and crouched looking at the kids, "Hello, is it fun playing with his body?"

Jin Rou's action caught some visitors' attention. Why would he near these ominous kids and ask a question? Was he looking for death this time?

The oldest of the kids answered, "Big Brother, he is a nice ball."

It made people shuddered. Those words were simple and direct, but the ruthlessness were deep. He was a nice ball?

"That's good. You better keep that ball since you guys made it." Jin Rou tapped the oldest kid's head and said, "You deserve it, so take care of it."

The kids' mood brightened and they cheerfully said at the same time, "Yes!"

Receiving their happy response, Jin Rou smiled and let the kids play. He looked at Fiarra and said, "Let's go. We will go to a certain place."

The princess was confused as to where they would go, but she would eventually know where so she didn't bother asking.

Dragon's Plate was like another continent once you are inside. If you look at it in a distance, it seemed to be a small plate only. But it was vast and almost endless like an ocean in reality.

Not so far from where they came, there was a popular spot in Dragon's Plate which was always filled with people no matter what time and occasion it was. Most visitors here were hopeful youths wanting to be rewarded for their talents.

Soar Peak. It was the official name of this place, a peak with a huge stone on it. The living mortals here said that anyone who could understand the stone would be blessed and enlightened by the sages who maintained the Dragon's Plate.

Since it was said by a living mortal of the plate, the credibility was high. Thus, many youths tried their luck to test how would they understand the stone. Engraved in the stone were very strange marks and symbols, so more often than not, those youths failed.

Of course, they could try again should they fail. There was no limit in trying to understand the symbols of the stone. There was also no penalty even if one failed numerous times.

"I didn't expect to see familiar faces here." Fiarra could recognize some of the youths in front of them who was focused in studying the stone, "The young master of Eve Clan, and even the genius of Three Elves Race, Abyss Scion."

The Eve Clan was a top lineage under the rule of Thousand Elf Kingdom, and the Three Elves Race was a powerhouse with authority almost on par with the kingdom. The Three Elves Race was like a council of the kingdom, or something of that sort. Nevertheless, the final rule was still under Thousand Elf Kingdom.

These two powerhouses acted like they get along with the kingdom, but Fiarra knew that it was just on the surface. Many times had already tried by Three Elves Race to usurp the throne, only to fail in the end. So, her animosity with them was thick.

Jin Rou noticed this but he ignored it. It's not his business anyway, so he wouldn't poke his nose where it didn't belong. Besides, they were in the Dragon's Plate.

As the beauty of Fiarra was ultimate, many had already noticed the duo, including the young master of Eve Clan and the Abyss Scion.

"This is a pleasant surprise. I never expected that Princess Fiarra will be coming here in Dragon's Plate." Abyss Scion was already handsome, but with his smile, it added more charm to him which made the girls here shout with giggling butterflies, "Should I have known, I have escorted you from the beginning."
