”I understand!”
That 'Excellency' continued to whisper, ”Right now, the Church of the Empire is really strict with their checks Last time, that stupid Simao caused havoc at the Imperial Capital It did not matter that the idiot had died, but he actually lost our sacred weapon, the Dracula Spear He would not be able to atone for his sins even if he died ten thousand times! No matter what, you must now be very careful You are one of the lowest ranked vaht and is harder for you to be noticed Youain
The uy leave In the end, he was the only left in the hall
That 'Excellency' then sloalked to a relief sculpture1 at the corner of the wall It was the relief sculpture of a classical beauty The gentle curves of her naked body looked seductive
The master stretched out his hand to slowly stroke the relief His hand slid down from her face to her chest
At that tihter Soon after, the sculpture actually moved

That wo and seductive face, but when she ss
”Your Excellency Jackal, you are angry again… Is it because of the loss of the Holy Beast or because you obtained inforently
Jackal twisted his body a little He then held the woently bit her in the neck He whispered, ”Aren’t you afraid I would suck your blood? My dear Ruth, I already said not to mention about that woman in front of me… especially you! I ae about that lake”
That feently She moved away from Jackal’s mouth and whispered, ”In fact, you should be happy… That stupid Si Prince of the vah so many hardshi+ps to find those Holy Beast, but now, they are all under your control”
Jackal’s eyes showed a hint of anxiety as he replied, ”There is nothing to be happy about that… The matters at the Southern h we found a few Holy Beasts, there is nothing left in that valley That Mystic Dragon had also disappeared”
Ruth rolled her eyes and smiled, ”Who cares, let the Elders worry about that As for now, do you think that I should find a way to capture Nedis within the next two days? This would really be a meritorious service”
Jackal shook his head His pair of claws slowly slipped down from Ruth’s shoulder as he softly said, ”As for thisto worry about Let's discuss this in two days' time… On the other hand, the lake is much more ireat help to us in breeding the Holy Beasts Those old guys are also urging o to the Imperial Capital to find a way and retrieve the Dracula’s Spear That is a real headache That old Pope is not easy to deal with”
Ruth’s body twisted as she laughed softly Jackal’s breathing also iht swayed, the two shadows on the wall gradually joined together and soon after they frantically got twisted into each other
Under the dis were visible on the ceiling above the big hall They were enveloped in a mass of sticky liquid and swayed when the wind blew
Meanwhile, at the other htly nestled into Rody’s ar breeze
Rody sighed He hugged Nicole tightly and whispered, ”Let us go in”
Nicole nodded her head She then thought for ato see Myka?”
Rody was startled He did not expect Nicole to suddenly ask such a question In the past few days, Rody had been acco Nicole every day, in front of the other nobles He had no ti that strange incident in that forest that day
It seems like West Hill is not a peaceful place
Nicole bit her lips and whispered, ”Are you worried about the safety of Myka and the others after what happened today? I guess you are also worried that there may be more than one of that monster and perhaps, there could be ht?”
Rody could hear that Nicole’s voice sounded unnatural However, Rody remained silent and just nodded his head
Nicole took a deep breath Suddenly, she used all her energy and tightly hugged Rody After that, she whispered while still in his ar Myka here This place is always safer”
Rody obviously felt Nicole’s body stiffen momentarily when she htly hold Nicole He then asked, ”You… Do you really think so?”
Nicole sighed She suddenly smiled and said, ”Really”
The two of them then silently embraced each other
After a moment, Rody slohispered, ”The round… It really seems like a Mythical Beast”
Nicole frowned and asked, ”Are you sure?”
Rody sighed and replied, ”Gadar said that Mythical Beasts were extinct froo The fact is, he rong As far as I know, there are still Mythical Beasts on the Radiant Continent I have even seen a lot of them”
Nicole seemed to tremble and softly asked, ”Where?”
Rody replied in a weird tone ”There were a lot of strange monsters, all kinds of Mythical Beasts in the Death Valley of the mountains in the South, where I entered before!” Rody looked up at the sky, frowned and then said to himself, ”Could it be that after I left, soht out the Mythical Beasts?”
