462 Faelyns Blush (1/2)
”I do have something like that.” Leon shrugged.
”Sister!”
Princess Faelyn begged her third eldest sister at the same time, causing Princess Thessalia to snort in silence.
Princess Thessalia could not understand why her baby sister would have such great trust in this human prince from the Human Domain.
'Don't tell me, my baby sister like this man? Impossible! That cannot happen. I will not allow a human to taint our royal elven blood!' Princess Thessalia mentally swore.
Unaware of her third eldest sister's thoughts, Princess Faelyn shortly turned to Leon and asked, ”Can you tell how big the underground passageway is and where the rats are headed?”
”My detection range is still limited. I am unable to gauge how big the underground passageway is.” Leon shook his head and said, ”However, I do know where the rats are heading. The underground passageway is leading them towards the center of the forest.”
”Towards the center of the forest?” Princess Faelyn mulled over his words with a wrinkled expression.
The center of the forest was where their Elven Tribe, Elvengarde, was located along with the Elder Tree. If the rats were heading towards there via the underground passageway, then…
”Does Elvengarde have any entrances connected to the subterranean world?” Leon asked Princess Faelyn with a wondering look.
If there was, it would only spell disaster for the elven tribe, especially if they cannot be warned in time.
Princess Faelyn shortly shook her head, ”Not that I know of.”
Plop!
A fresh piece of shredded rat flesh splattered on the ground not far from the group, causing them mild surprises.
It was not long before several more pieces of fresh rat chunks landed by their feet with soft thuds, followed by the rain of rat blood.
Aria conjured a barrier of ice-lightning to shield herself and Leon from the downpour, while Third Princess Thessalia covered Faelyn with a huge green banana leaf she had quickly summoned.
At the same time, an elven warrior's cry could be heard shouting over, ”Your Highness, we won't be able to contain them within the cage for much longer! There are too many of them!”
”Commence the next step of the plan immediately! Team two will fall back and erect a bigger cage while team one will continue to hold on until team two completes the construction!” Princess Thessalia quickly hollered her commands with a solemn look.
”Yes, Your Highness!”
”Sister, I can help!” Princess Faelyn shouted as Princess Thessalia prepared to return to the top of the trees to assist the elven warriors in slaughtering the rats and ease their pressure.
Princess Thessalia shot a glance back and said, ”It's too dangerous here! Go back to the tribe! You won't be able to help much with your current cultivation level!”
”But I am also a 9-Star Ranked Awakener like you now, sister!” Princess Faelyn argued.
”Oh?”
