Chapter 1487 Rare Leisure (2/2)
With this army supporting his every move, Darren could go berserk, wreaking havoc in the Second Dangerous Area without fear of retaliation. Due to him targeting groups of metal creatures, most of them altered their routes to avoid encountering Darren.
”Several days have gone by, and there isn't any metal creature in sight. Where could they have gone?”
Determined, Darren and his companions took to the skies, covering high ground to continue their search for the metal creatures, but to no avail. With each passi
why would I be upset?”
”You're not? That makes me feel so much better! Allow me to treat you with some wine.” Feeling delighted from her pleasant exchange with Darren's aunt, Elsa poured in wine into the cups of Yolanda and the other seniors, serving them energetically.
Soon, the air was choked with casual laughter and chatter, coupled with the clinking of wine cups. After such a long journey, Darren and his companions finally had the chance to lay back and relax.
”How are things with Todd and Roland going?”
When the feast concluded, Darren questioned the Rule Soul Avatar.
”Fortunately, Master Todd's condition has stabilized. Roland, however, he still needs time to recover,” the Rule Soul Avatar replied.
”Thank you for your help.”
”Don't worry about it.” After giving Darren a slight nod, the Rule Soul Avatar gulped down a few cups of wine to hydrate and then immersed himself in treating Roland.
Following that day, Darren passed his nights and days by Elsa's side, cherishing their time together, while the others cultivated or went sightseeing. Without a care in the world, they let time tick away as they relieved themselves. Life was so peaceful, which was a feeling they had long forgotten with all the strife that struck them.
A few more days passed by when something unusual happened outside his small world.
Darren had sensed that some of his metal creatures had disappeared mysteriously. They were under attack, and he had faced the loss of a thousand metal creatures from his army.
”Elsa, I have to go out now. You and Miss Jenifer can stay here and wait for me and Xavier to come back.”
”Be careful out there. If there's any danger that can overwhelm you, please escape immediately.” Usually, Elsa would act like a spoiled child who'd want Darren to do her bidding when she was moody. But when the situation called for it, she would deal with it maturely and let Darren handle it his way without interfering. Indeed, those were the qualities of a good wife.
”Don't worry. I'll be back, I promise.” After reassuring her, he pulled her into his warm embrace before leaving his small world with the others.
