Chapter 100 - Facing a Powerful Magical beasts (I) (1/2)
In the blink of an eye, it has already been a day since Shad and his group had left Ozuna city to the Great Tower. Currently, it was early in the morning and the sunlight filtered through the leaves above, flowing through the gaps like water.
At this moment, the members of the Lightning Corps began to pack up their tents while chattering. Soon afterward, the campfire came to life with a crackling sound.
In his tent, Shad slowly opened his eyes and shook himself sober after a long sleepless night. Walking out his tent, he swept his eyes around.
He saw only thirty lightning corps members moving about and lighting campfire while packing up their tents, he also noticed that some of them were already ready, and they were waiting for the others.
At the same time, the three imperial knights slowly crawled out from their tents in a hazy stupor. All three of them were yawning continuously which was clearly a symbol of their lack of sleep.
As imperial knights assigned to the 4th prince and also the four generals of the Lightning Corps, they had the duty to protect their leader at all time. As such, even though Shad went to sleep last night, they've spent all night guarding his tent until they were ordered to get some sleep.
Slowly shaking his head, Shad began to pack up his tent as well. Even though he was the 4th imperial prince and could order anyone around here to do a small chore such as this, he preferred not to.
Even when he was a kid, he had never let the maids bathed him or clothed him as they did for his other brothers. He didn't like the idea of being pampered all the time and be taken care off as though he was a handicap even though he was a prince. There's certain things that a man should do by himself.
” Hey, Shad, my favorite little brother! Did you get a good night sleep” Suddenly, a sweet and caring voice called out to him from behind. At the voice, Shad turned his head behind only to see Viviana with a sarcastic smile on her face along with four devastating beauties coming towards him. These four people were other than Mina, Nina, Monalisa, and Gwen.
Unlike Shad and the Lighting Corps members who have slept within the depth of the dangerous Dark forest which was the den of countless ferocious magical beasts, these five ladies were sleeping comfortably and soundly in the Imperial Palace due to Monalisa's dimensional portal ability.
After Knowing the ability of Monalisa, Viviana became very close to her and started calling her big sister. As for Monalisa, she was rather happy to be very close to her, not because she was the princess of the Djage Empire but because she was the big sister of her young master and also her future sister in law. If she could gain the recognition of Viviana, things would be a little less complicated and easier in the future.
” Ah, quite well,” responded Shad with a smile on his face, though last night, he hadn't slept a wink.
It was the first time he had passed the night into such a dangerous place such as the Dark Forest. Not only it was also filled powerful beasts, but he also had to guard against many powerful experts who were going to the Great Tower as well. As such, he didn't dare to sleep soundlessly.
Instead, he spent the whole night cultivating. Furthermore, the first time he has stepped into the boundless Dark Forest, fresh and clean elemental energy had immediately fallen upon him like rainfall, cleansing him in both body and mind, allowing him to suddenly feel as though he had returned to nature. It was the same when he had entered the Black Mist forest as well, only this time, the elemental energy was a little denser. So, after spending a whole night in meditation, he had absorbed quite a bit of magic power within his infinite space and slightly increased his strength.
