Chapter 192: Amenes Turbulent Feelings (1/2)
”Has this snake always been here?” Joseph asked Amene.
”Who are you?”
Amene raised her head and stared at Joseph in confusion.
”I'm Lawrend's Instructor,” Joseph introduced himself.
”Hm… Okay. The Verdant Golden-Eyed Python is a legendary creature in this forest. There is only a 1% survival rate if you meet it,” Amene explained to Joseph.
”How long has it been here?”
”500 years?”
”It makes sense that it evolved now.”
Joseph nodded his head in understanding after hearing Amene's reply.
”Amene!” Nuon shouted from afar.
Amene ignored him and embraced Lawrend tighter.
Seeing that scene, Nuon felt bitter. A feeling of inferiority towards Lawrend bloomed inside him. That no matter what he did, Lawrend will always be better.
”Nuon, help her carry Lawrend,” Joseph ordered him.
”M-Mr. Joseph!?”
Nuon jumped back in fright when he heard Joseph's voice.
”Mm.”
Joseph nodded his head at him.
”I will.”
Nuon nodded back at Joseph.
”Amene, I'll carry Lawrend for you,” Nuon said to her.
”Be careful,” Amene replied. She helped Nuon carry Lawrend into his arms.
”I got it,” Nuon said to her after he made sure that he got a good grip on Lawrend's body.
While that was happening, Joseph approached the area where the Ruby Red Python died.
”Not bad.”
Joseph picked up a blood-red crystal from the pile of ashes. The surrounding area had been razed to the ground. There were some leftover burning fires on some of the branches of the trees.
Joseph pocketed the blood-red crystal.
”PIIIIIII—!” Joseph whistled with his fingers.
Whoosh Whoosh
The loud flaps of the wyvern sounded from the horizon. It created a storm of dust as it landed at the place where the Ruby Red Python died at.
Joseph jumped on the back of the wyvern and rode it.
”Nuon and the girl, ride behind me.”
Nuon crouched down a little before jumping upwards. He landed on the back of the wyvern and sat Lawrend in front of him carefully.
”N-Nyaaa..?”
Amene stared at the wyvern cautiously.
”Don't worry. It won't bite you,” Joseph reassured Amene with a smile.
”Really?” Amene asked him doubtfully.
”My baby won't hurt you,” Joseph said to her as he rubbed the neck of the wyvern.
”Grrrr…” The wyvern roared softly in response.
”See?”
”Okay. I believe you.”
