Chapter 401 - PLANS FOR FINISHING THE TASK (1/2)

”THEN, we'll be leaving now, Mr. Lhoris,” Luo Yan said to Lhoris, standing up from where he was sitting. Eclipse also jumped to his shoulder, his tails surrounding his neck like some kind of scarf. ”I suggest you visit Tropical Land as soon as you can. Mr. Alen seemed to be really worried about you.”

A gentle smile crossed the moon elf's lips. ”Yes, I plan to do that.”

”Then, can I ask Mr. Lhoris to temporarily take down the shield so we could leave?” Luo Yan asked.

”No problem. But can you go out as fast as you could? I'm afraid the monsters would rush towards the cabin,” Lhoris said, appearing embarrassed by his own timidity.

Luo Yan smiled. ”Of course.”

Then they all walked out of the cabin. Sure enough, another batch of monsters were already circling around the place.

”Then, I'm going to take down the barrier.”

After Lhoris said that, he raised his hand and the barrier surrounding the cabin slowly disappeared. The moment it did, Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun quickly rushed forward.

Luo Yan took out his dagger and Shen Ji Yun also took out his sword. Eclipse didn't hesitate to jump off from his master's shoulder. And the three of them attacked the monsters head on.

It took about 10 minutes before the three of them finished off all the monsters that appeared around the area of the cabin. Since Shen Ji Yun had already destroyed the stone that was attracting the monsters here, after they killed all the monsters, no new batch appeared. So, they had a little bit of breathing time.

Luo Yan looked back at the cabin and was not the least bit surprise seeing that the door was already tight close. But Eclipse was obviously dissatisfied with Lhoris' attitude.

[Mashter, that old geezer didn't even say goodbye to us. How rude!]

[It's fine. He's just scared that monsters would come inside his house.] – Luo Yan said, picking up the little fox.

[Hmp! What a scaredy-cat. He should be ashamed being a fellow moon elf like you Mashter. After all, Mashter is not only extremely beautiful, you're also powerful and majestic.]

Luo Yan chuckled. [You surely have a sweet mouth.]

Then he turned towards Shen Ji Yun, planning to tell him the conjecture he formed after listening to the things that Lhoris told them.

”Brother Ji Yun, can you listen to my analysis?”

Shen Ji Yun nodded. ”Okay.”

”So, this was how I thought the order of the memories that Lhoris told us happened. First, was the part of him being shunned by the whole dragon clan. Which caused him to leave the clan and live as a recluse. The memory of Kagetsuki finding him in the cave should come after that. Then the whole massacre. After that tragic incident, he went back to the dragon clan and challenged the king. When he won, he waged a war against the Dark Mages of Achaeus. During this war, someone betrayed him. And then, for some reason, he ended up at the Silent Marsh of the moon elves' village.”
