220 Returning to Agoria (1/2)

”Ken, are those deadly?”

Knight asked Ken.

”Deadly? These can penetrate the defenses and kill a heavenly level mage in a second”

”But one needle can be only used once, in other words, you can kill only three people with it”

Reghys said as Ken nodded.

Even though the life energy cultivators could use the needle, Don was able to use the needles more efficiently and faster because of his metal bending ability.

Others had to use a simple spell to use the needle which could alert the opponent because of the magical fluctuations but if Don wanted to use it, he could do it in a fraction of a second.

”Knight, you take one”

DOn slid one needle to Knight and took one for himself.

”What about the last one?”

”Let's just put it in the treasury room with the other items”

Knight nodded and said

”So the last item, this big chunk of metal”

”Iodrium”

Unlike for the other items, when they heard Reghys, they were disappointed considering no one could forge anything with Iodrium so the chunk of metal was pretty much useless.

”Just toss it in the treasury room, there's nothing we can do with it”

Reghys said immediately as the dwarves nodded.

”Let me try”

Knight heard about Iodrium from the dwarves before and he was curious at that time to see whether the hell flame could melt it or not.

Pulling the dark greyish Idorium chunk towards him, Knight conjured the dark purple flames in his hand. Except for Reghys, everyone looked at Knight and the metal curiously.

The flame in Knight's hand grew darker and darker as the room started to get hotter, yet, Iodrium remained unharmed by the hell flames which surprised even Don since no metal in the divine continent could withstand the heat of the hell flames.

”Alright, I'm going to Agoria and in fifteen days from now on, we'll root the water spirit in Emir with the help of the Cold Moon Palace as we planned”

He already explained everything to them so they just nodded as Don left the room.

The dwarves ran directly behind Don after bowing at Knight and noticing them, he turned around.

”Your majesty, here's your suit, we reinforced it with more of Guardian Reghy's scales and added another layer to keep the heat in so you won't feel any cold during the upcoming winter”

It was a surprise coincidence as he wouldn't have needed warm clothes like normal people before but considering he couldn't use battle energy, he needed to wear this kind of clothes to keep his body warm.

Already his beard was growing long and he had to cut and trim it every two or three days which became a regular thing for him. Receiving the robes from the dwarves, Don appreciated them with a pat on their shoulders and went to his room to change.

Since he was restrained from using the battle energy, he embraced all the weapons like this as they might even save his life in a fight.

With his trusty black sword on his back and the shield in his space ring, Don left the room and when he stepped out he saw Reghys was waiting for him.

”Give me your hand”

He was accustomed to doing things she asks as quickly these past days as he reached his right hand towards her.

”This might sting”

But before he could ask what, he felt like he was bitten by a snake as he looked at his hand to see the Extinction dart sinking into his palm.

”Can you feel it?”

He closed his eyes and tried to sense the needle in his hand and in a few seconds, he was able to feel the needle.

”Yes”

After a few moments of silence, Don said.

”Good, let's go”

Reghys urged him towards the teleportation room but he remained still and frowned.

”I need to be with you and monitor you all the times, you better get used to it”

”I'm coming with you too”

Don heard Arwen's voice and turned to see he was walking towards him with a bunch of black-armored guards.

These past few days, Arwen noticed the changes in Don's body and the things he was doing while monitored by Reghys. However, he didn't ask any questions as it was not his place to question Don and he knew that Don would tell him if it was something they had to be aware of and since Don didn't tell him anything, he chose not to put his nose in.

But although Don didn't tell him anything, Arwen's instincts told him that he was guarding Don rather than staying in Everlight.
