252 Skull Island (1/2)
This was the first time they had seen Amaryll angry to this point as she radiated killing intent.
The round table seats were now occupied by all the important figures of Everlight such as Ken, Benedict, Vivian, Kayako, Nanbu, Ukita, Uncle Dior, Amaryll, Arwen, Joel, Grey, Stodemar, Dhursir, Nicolas, Hagu, and Reghys while the seats of Don, Knight, and Arrora were empty.
”It's not that simple, Amaryll, if we capture Noa without a reason, it'll be a reason for anyone who sees us as a threat to form an alliance and declare war against us”
Uncle Dior said.
”Also, if Noa's allies went and complained this to the emperor, there's a chance that the emperor sends his own troops in the fight against us ”
Joel expressed his opinion and everyone except Amaryll nodded their heads and agreed with him as Stodemar said
”As much as I love ta kill that bloody bitch, we kinna put our kingdom in danger. Korrinth be already our enemy, Monivelle be certainly nae a friend, we already messed with Vreston an' after this elf's fiasco in Mairis, they too attack us ta get back at us, nae ta mention enarin also sees us as a threat. We be powerful but we kinna defend against half o' tha freakin rank 4 kingdoms ”
”You are supposed to support me, Dwarf! aren't you short fuckers are dumb battle junkies?”
Amaryll shouted at Stodemar in frustration as the room became more intense.
”We be nae suicidal elf, didn't general knight teach ye nae ta be stupid?”
”STOP!”
Reghys roared and punched the table as the room quickly turned silent.
”I know this is a tense time but if we fight among us, we lose the fight before it even begins and think about Don, this is how you are going to honor his memories?”
”He will come back”
Amaryll rebuked as Reghys took a deep breath.
”So what do we do, Guardian Reghys?”
Ken asked.
”I have a plan but it will need all of us to work together, can you do that?”
She asked and looked at Amaryll and Stodemar. And after taking a few seconds, both of them sighed and nodded
”Yes”
”Good, Kayako, what do you want, and how much time do you need to concoct a Weludin pill? ”
***************************
While Everlight was planning to gather the needed proofs before Arrora breakthrough to the Heavenly Level, Knight and Lia stayed at the Inn.
The last twenty-four hours slightly calmed the girl's mind and she cried a lot less compared to yesterday and even started to ask some questions to get to know him.
A Soul Strength practitioner's tomb held an extreme allure towards anyone.
Everyone knew that even if you had a low cultivation level, if you were lucky enough to stumble upon the treasures left by the Soul Strength Cultivator, then, you would also possess the ability to advance to breakthrough to the upper stages just by absorbing the remnant life energy. Therefore, for many people, this trip could alter their life completely.
As long as one could advance to the Heavenly level, regardless of who they were, one would become a celebrity and join the elite group in Elvelon Continent. After all, a Heavenly level cultivator was extremely rare in the Elvelon Continent, and even after the replenishment of the life energy, it was still hard to break through to the Heavenly Level from the Grandmaster level.
While the Lake town became increasingly bustling, at the front of the largest shipbuilder of Riester kingdom, Knight finished buying high-quality wood and metal to build ships according to Lia's recommendation and geared up to leave for Skull Island.
Lia was shocked to see the wealth he just spent and wondered how rich he is. Because of his extravagant spending, Knight became the elite customer of the largest shipbuilder of Riester in one go. With the materials he just bought, Lia could build at least three warships.
”After we explored the tomb, we'll come here again and buy the materials needed to build the ancient ships”
Lia looked at him as an astonishment surfaced in the former's eyes. Evidently, she did not expect that he actually had so much wealth in his space ring.
”Young master, how rich are you?”
She couldn't hold back anymore as she blankly asked him.
