Chapter 217: A mysterious person with unmeasurable magical energy! (1/2)

The raccoon man was startled when one of the bees spoke. He stared at it and noticed that it was different compared to the other bees. It was exuding a golden aura.

Although he was curious, he chose not to ask the person in front of him.

He knew that the current situation was inappropriate for such a trivial question.

Yman narrowed his eyes at the report of Wisp's friend. No doubt that something was amiss in a weird situation that was currently happening.

Mysterious worms were appearing in waves, and it was strange that they were coming to attack them.

”For now, I guess, we need to hide,” he said to them. It wasn't a good idea fighting against the enemy with uncertain numbers. It would drain out their mana and stamina without proper achievements.

”Bro, my friends are--”

”Don't worry; I'll try to search for them, using my scouts.”

”Mister, how about the spider—”

”Later.”

He said and sent two scout birds flying. He didn't want to trouble himself with others' problems, but Yman found it troublesome to argue with a desperate person.

He just wished that this person would leave them be and would be going to look for his friends in another area. However, he thought that helping him now would bring benefits to him later on.

Regardless, he sent two of the scout bees to assure him that he was searching. It would be troublesome if he kept annoying him about his friends.

The raccoon man went silent after two of his birds went patrolling in the skies.

However, right after his birds flew a few meters away from them, they transmitted their vision to him that caused him to be slightly surprised.

About a hundred worms together with purple color insects that look like butterflies were coming to their location. Although they look like butterflies, he knew that they weren't the same.

Not only that, the creatures were gigantic, and they looked fiercer. Anything aside from that was just as the raccoon man had described a while ago.

So he believed that it was the evolved form that the raccoon man mentioned.

”This is bad,” he subconsciously muttered.

”What do you mean, Mister?” Asked Wisp.

'Wait, could it be--' Yman thought as he glanced to his back.

Sistela asked him.

'I'm not sure, but perhaps they were aiming to enter the cave.'

Sistela was doubtinghis partner's thought that those monsters were heading to the cave.

Sistela mumbled as she was thinking.

(The next second,)

'Yeah!' He didn't wait for her to complete her words as he felt that she already figured it out.

Yman and the others headed to the woods not far from the lake. It was on the left side when facing the cave and their backs were facing the lake. In front of the woods was a lofty wall of the mountain.

But he soon change his mind and rushed towards the cave entrance.

”Where are you going, Mister?” The Wisp asked him.

”Bro!”

”Don't follow me, you guys hide over there!”

He pointed to the near forest.

”But--”

The raccoon man wanted to say something but he already sprinted towards the cave.

”Mister, waaaaaiiiiit!!!” The Wisp screamed and rushed behind him. ”What are you planning to do?” It flew beside him and asked.

He could feel the doubt within its voice, but Yman disregarded it as there was a more important things.

”I'm going to secure the cauldron,” he replied. He had a bad premonition about those creatures.

”.....”

The Wisp fell silent.

”Don't worry, I'm just going to transfer it to a safer place,” he added to assure the Wisp that he wasn't planning to steal it.

”Uhm…” The Wisp seemed to notice his reason for doing it. ”Don't tell me those creatures are heading here because of the water?”

Yman sent a glance at it while kicking the ground to rapidly rush towards the entrance of the cave.

”Well, I'm not sure, just a hunch...” he replied.

”Oh!” Said the Wisp as it landed on his shoulder. Probably, tired of flapping its wings.

He estimated that the wave of worms would arrive in about 7-8 minutes. Just enough time to secure the item.

When Yman and the Wisp arrived in front of the mug-like stone.

He glanced around and saw a stone as big as his head. He picked and fortified it. Then he used it to smash the mug-like stone.

POK! POK! POK!

He did three successive smashes to it, but Yman was dumbfounded when nothing happened, even a little crack could not be seen.

”Dang, it's so hard. Is this even made of stone?” He whined.

From his shoulder: ”I see! It turns out my friend was telling the truth!” Suddenly exclaimed the Wisp.

”What do you mean?” He asked with a frown.

”The mysterious person who sealed it is a strong expert with unmeasurable magical energy. That's what my friend had told me before,” said the Wisp.
