Chapter 39 - 39:Where is this Child Bringing us Exactly? (2/2)

Back in the carriage, the three tries to figure out who attacked their clan. He obviously has a deep-seated grudge against the Oracles.

The High Council is being lipped tight towards the entire issue. Perhaps, they also don't know who he is. Still, they shouldn't ignore these incidents.

They can't figure out why he is so fixated on eliminating them. They don't have anyone in thought who will bear such deep-seated hatred towards them after all.

”Where exactly are you bringing us, Little Eu?” Elder Levi asked as he decided to change the subject.

It's been a long night, and he doesn't want to talk about this malicious entity who wishes to obliterate them. He just wanted to rest his mind for a while and talk about something else.

”You'll see...” she cheerfully responded.

She doesn't want to break the surprise after all. Then again, there is also a tinge of mischief in her smile, and both elders are finding it slightly suspicious.

'Where is this child bringing us exactly?'

Not long, the Oracle Clan members arrived in somehow familiar but unknown parts of the Realm. The sun has already set as they emerge out of the portal that Eu created.

It is a denser forest than their previous home, and in front of them is a magical view of a waterfall. Magic stones scattered in the base of the stream and giving the clear water a l.u.s.trous l.u.s.ter.

The carriage is nowhere in sight when they look back. Eu explains that it is a one-way portal, and the self-driving wagons are currently moving somewhere far from their location.

The idea is to throw off anyone who is currently tracking them. She ensures that no one will be able to trace them even if they try.

Grand Elder Enoch nods his head as he listens to her explanation. Eu carefully planned for this day and prepared countermeasures.

Nobody knew how elaborate his plans are or who he is. She just has to consider all possible scenarios to escape the inevitable.

”Isn't this the Ancient Silver's Dragon Layer?” somebody finally voiced out.

'What?! We are in the Forbidden Mountains?'

'Why here?!'

'I don't feel good about this. Is she in cahoots with that man?! Is this a trap?'

'What?! Why did she bring us here? This is the most dangerous place in Mystic Spirit. Those Ancient Beast are unforgiving!'

Eu ignores their worried faces. She calmly smiles and confirms their suspicion they are in the Forbidden Forest.

Every Mystic avoids this Ancient Mountains. Nobody wants to offend the residents of this place.

There is a worried look in their eyes as they look at each other. They barely move a muscle as they watch Eu walk closer at the beautiful cascading water.

Not long, the Ancient Silver Dragon emerged from the waterfalls and saw the young girl with her people. His red eyes look at everyone with enthusiasm as he approaches Eu.

”It's been a while, Little one. You are late!” the Silver Dragon complains.

”Sorry for keeping you so long, Teacher...” Eu chuckles jestingly.

A strange look is evident on each other's faces as they listened to their conversation. Eu is obviously well-acquainted with this Dragon. She is even calling him 'Teacher.'

'Teacher?'

'Does she mean to say that the Silver Dragon was her mentor?'

Everyone shifted their gaze at Elder Levi. Everyone knew he is her mentor, as well. They thought he was the only person behind her knowledge and skills.

Elder Levi can only shrug their questioning gazes. It is already apparent he can't possibly the only person teaching her. They barely even met, especially those passed few years.

Still, he can hardly imagine how this obnoxious Ancient Dragon will teach her anything. He is famous for beating and throwing out intruders. How did these two actually meet?

Meanwhile, Grand Elder Enoch narrowed his eyes and looked at the Silver Dragon suspiciously. He can't help thinking that these two met in unusual circ.u.mstances as well.

”Let's go. Everyone is waiting.” Eu finally said.

She pulled Grand Elder Enoch as she urges everyone to follow. She looks at the High Council who is remaining silent all this time as they continue to observe everything.

They always have a poker, impassive, and cold expressions. Nobody can really guess what they are thinking most of the time.

Much to her surprise, they responded to her with an appreciative and reassuring nod. It's not often that these men will acknowledge anything.

Meanwhile, everyone follows as they entered the magical sparkling waterfalls where the Silver Dragon has emerged. They are quite nervous and excited at the same time. They can't wait to find out what lies ahead and what kind of surprises Eu has in stored for them.
