Chapter 144. Solo Night Hunt
Dragon King's Harem Chapter 144. Solo Night Hunt
After Jyne left, I took my hunter clothes and put them on. Then I approached my desk to write a message. It was an emergency message, in case I didn't come back after the morning arrived. Which meant I was in trouble. Well, I was going to avoid that wherever possible and it shouldn't be happening.
After that, I stretched my hand forward.
'Shadow Portal, Gilmanour, Stone Forest.'Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com
A portal that resembled a small black hole appeared in front of me.
[The portal has opened !]
I immediately got into it.
Darkness devoured me. Once I arrived at the end of the darkness, I could see a forest filled with tall rocks in front of me. The black rocks' average height was about 10 meters. The others were much-much bigger and taller as if they were tall buildings in the modern era. Short grass covered the ground. A transparent barrier enveloped it. It meant I could only open my portal within that limit.
'Right, I just need to get in and find that temple as fast as I can and move on to the next place,' I reminded myself. I planned to enter the place as quietly as I could. So I didn't have to fight any monsters.
I opened my wings and flapped them, bringing my body through the barrier. My eyes fell, looking for a stone temple that held an important skill. A skill that could help me to win my first duel. Stone Curse.
Since Arter's Mana element was thunder/wind and had a lot of paralyzing skills, I decided to get a skill that could immobilize him. And then any other skill, nothing was better than this skill.
My eyes paid close attention to what was below me. Every now and then I stopped at the top of a high rock so I could see my surroundings more clearly. It was a bit difficult for me to see in the dark like this, even with my Dragon Vision. Not to mention, even with the previous royal dragons' memories, all the rock in this place looked the same and there was no special rock as a sign of where that temple was.
A long breath escaped my mouth. It had been half an hour but I hadn't found it yet. I guessed it was only a matter of time before the monsters found me.
Evelina turned her body from side to side to find a comfortable position. But she couldn't sleep. Her thoughts were on the Orcs and Minotaur who were waiting for Argod at the border. She knew it wasn't her fault, but she also couldn't deny she was one of the reasons why the Orcs and Minotaur had deployed their forces to attack Draconis.
There was an uneasy feeling in her. The feeling of guilt kept bothering her. Yet she didn't know what she should do to get rid of it. What was on her mind was to help Argod prepare for this battle well and pray for her safety.
In another room, Sela was busy making Argod's orders. While Marissa tried to sleep in her new bed. Even though they were doing different activities, they were lost in the same thoughts. The war between the Dwarf Tribe and the Nymph tribe that awaited them.
Indeed, they had agreed to work together on this, but there was no telling when the queen would make a move. If they were late, then the Dwarf Tribe would be wiped out of Igixar without a fight. But if they tried to stop her recklessly, then they would harm Draconis.
The Nymph Queen could have used the poison on Draconis instead of the Dwarf or The Dwarf saw Draconis as an enemy and ended up attacking the Dragon Tribe. If The Nymph took the opportunity to poison The Dwarf, the queen could blame Argod with ease.
This put them in a new dilemma and they knew they couldn't move carelessly because if they were caught by either the Dwarf King or Nymph Queen, their plan would fall apart.
Elsewhere, Jyne lay on her bed and sobbed. Neither because of Arter's words nor her father's letter. Her tears rolled down her pillow. Her heart ached in pain as if a knife had stabbed into her chest.
Indeed she could not deny what her brother said. But what she said wasn't completely wrong either. Moreover, Argod had fulfilled all the conditions, yet Argod still had to do this duel. Even if they said they were doing this to protect her, she felt this was unfair for her.
