Chapter 584 (2/2)

“Awesome, you really made a road through the mountain.” Honey applauded.

Meanwhile, the row of birds crouched in the treetop above her head tweeted.

“Of course, there’s nothing I can’t do,” said Lotus proudly.

Unlike the reefs surrounding Sleeping Island, the rock layer here was much deeper and harder, so it was much more difficult to transform it. Fortunately, she did not need to transform the entire mountain into flat ground. According to His Majesty’s plan, she just needed to build a passageway that could allow five or six carriages to pass side by side. Thinking of the iron bridge, this time she did not consider such a spacious road a waste.

Since the hills were more than forty meters above sea level, the easiest way to build the road was by sinking the ground gradually until it turned into a long, gentle slope.

In order to facilitate the passage of carriages, she purposely pressed the rock layer on the surface of the hills into a level road surface. By doing so, even if it rained, puddles of water would not form on the surface of the road.

Now, if you were standing on top of the slope, you could see the golden shallow beach and the blue sea, and you could feel the cool sea breeze blowing along the slope with a familiar salty smell.

“Did you bring fire?” Honey bounded toward her.

“No, what do you want to do?”

“Roast fish, of course!” Honey smiled and added, “How about you drive them out to the top of the water’s surface when I attract them here? We can just put them under the sun for two days if we don’t have fire.”

The birds above her head tweeted even more merrily.

Lotus rolled her eyes and said, “I don’t want to smell salted fish everywhere! Besides, haven’t you got bored of it? You ate so many on Sleeping Island!”

“Hmm? I feel it was quite good,” Honey said while tilting her head.

“Anyway, putting fish under the sun is forbidden here. His Majesty doesn’t like the smell of fish, either.” Lotus suddenly remembered Ashes and was not sure whether she was still plagued from eating fish soup on Sleeping Island. “His Majesty said he plans to build a harbor, so Lady Tilly can come here anytime she wants, and she won’t need to come by hot air balloon anymore.”

When Lady Tilly was mentioned, this attracted Honey’s attention. “So… will she come?”

Her expression was even simpler than that of an animal. Lotus patted her fluffy hair, saying, “I have no idea, but soon His Majesty has to fight against the church, so she must come to help her brother.”

Actually, Lotus was not sure, especially after she had heard all the details of the Bloodfang Association and Heidi Morgan. In the past, she had not liked the pompous attitude of the combat witches, but now it seemed that they were also quite pitiable.

After she stopped holding prejudice against them, she realized that they were actually not that different from herself. At least now, she could have a short conversation with Iffy once in a while. The combat witches on the island, however, would not be persuaded by Tilly easily.

“Yay, that’s great!”

Lotus sighed inwardly. This little girl knew nothing about war. If Lady Tilly failed to solve the Bloodfang Association’s problem, and the church attacked His Majesty Roland at the same time, it would mean big trouble.

Despite that, she still wished that Lady Tilly could come to Border Town again.

And she also wished Lady Tilly could stay here forever.

Then the wish she had made in the winter would come true

“Thus, all the witches including myself could live happily in Border Town,” Lotus thought.
