Laxi, Zhank, and Beem continued to search for the whereabouts of Haamos and the queen's wife but they couldn't find even a trace of the two, the search that had taken days today was draining their energy now.
They even had time to change the search path and had met each other in several places, but until now the news about Haamos and the Queen still hadn't been heard.
Edard also had time to arrange for the island where the birds lived, but still, there was no information about the whereabouts of the queen there.
Because of that Edard ordered more troops to look for the queen, he couldn't just let the queen go or he could have something bad happen in the future.
"I don't want to know, you guys look for Erciliana until you get it. Live or die, I want to see the body for myself!" sitting on the throne, Edard ordered the royal troops to search for Erciliana's whereabouts.
"But my lord, he went with Haamos, how could we possibly trace him?" said the royal adviser. He was one of the people in the kingdom who was still loyal to the great king Bilhelm. That's why he wanted so badly to prevent this traitor from using his power to find the queen.
"Even Haamos can't fly continuously. It's been a few days, we'll see how long it will last in the sky before it descends to the surface?" Edard pursed his lips, he didn't care at all what was going on because the only goal he had right now was to kill the baby in Erciliana's womb.
And Edard also didn't know that the royal advisor wasn't actually on his side, it was because the royal advisor was good at hiding his feelings and acted quite well.
"Husband, how are you doing?" In the middle of the conversation, Aleina came over with a glass of potion brewed in an ancient wooden container.
"I think I'm getting better now!" Edard nodded slowly, then he reached out his hand to take the container made of wood and downed the potion that was in it.
"It seems that the side effects of the drugs from the hill of life have started to diminish now," Aleina said when she saw her husband's condition had begun to improve.
"Even so, this stab wound is still painful, it seems that the tonic produced from inside my body is no longer able to accommodate this stab wound.
In the last fight against Bilhelm a while ago, Edard suffered so many serious injuries because he was no match for his little nephew.
It was only because he drank the medicine from the hill of life that he was able to keep up with Bilhelm in battle, the medicine gave him the energy to keep moving and attacking despite the many injuries he had received.
But still, as Bilhelm said when he found out that Edard was taking the medicine from the hill of life in good health, then there would be side effects that hit him.
the excess life energy that makes the body can no longer accommodate it will make several organs of the body become damaged and if not treated quickly it can spread to the heart organs and make them die.
That was also the reason why the stab wound could no longer be treated from the tonic produced, apart from the tonic being drained a lot in a match, the side effects of the medicine hindered healing.
"No problem, I have invited our kingdom's chief physician to concoct a suitable medicine for you!" said Aleina.
"Good, I still don't want to die young!" Edard looked a little joking.

Meanwhile out there, far away, Haamos was starting to feel tired from days of flying.
"Come down Haamos first, we'll find a safe place to hide." Erciliana could feel that Haamos was feeling very tired right now, so she had to offer Haamos she would take a break.
"I am afraid that they are still looking for us now!" said Haamos.
The only reason why Haamos kept flying through the air like this was that he was afraid that someone would chase them at close range.
Because, if they are caught, the hopes that have been painstakingly guarded will just disappear. There was no way Haamos would allow such a thing to happen.
"No, believe me, we're almost at Sequa's border, so there's no way they're coming anytime soon. No creature can move as fast as you." Erciliana stroked the nape of Haamos with her hand.
"But the queen-"
"Alright, find a safe place to land." Erciliana cut in.
Since it was the Queen who requested, Haamos could no longer push himself. After all, his wings are starting to feel so heavy and sore, it looks like he needs a break recently.
About 2 hours later Haamos for the first time after several days of flying lowered his wings and landed his claws on the ground.
They landed in a vast rock field. Haamos had thought of landing here so it took 2 hours before they descended from the sky.
"What is this place, Haamos?" Queen Ercliana didn't seem to have seen the place they were currently in. Naturally, she was a queen who seldom left the palace and the city.
"This is a stone field, Queen. There are many hidden caves here for us to stay in hiding." Haamos explained.
"Is this still Sequa territory?" asked the Queen curiously. This place looked quite beautiful in his view even though there were only rocks that he could see along the way.
Just like a desert filled with sand in all directions, so is this desert of rocks. It's just that at a glance these stones look beautiful
"It's already at the end of our country, come on queen, we have to find a place to hide first!" said Haamos while taking the queen on her way.
Haamos was very uneasy about being out in the open like this, he was afraid that their whereabouts would be discovered and he would not be able to save the queen in the end.
He won't let that happen!
