Davina was really in a bad mood recently, while Allen acted responsibly most of the time, he took quite the pleasure in enjoying the dangerous situation, with a scowl of displeasure, " uhhhh, well whatever, I will talk with Bastien about this, I should also assign him a personal knight who can keep him in check " with a strange light in her eyes as if she thought of the perfect person of such a job, Davina went back to her reading,
From the pile of books she had around her, it was clear she had been reading for a long while.
Back at the crash location, and after the fight between Allen and Nich with the two unknown agents which ended with the unknown agents getting sealed after Allen used a whisp of Draconic aura and draconic language that affected everyone in the vicinity of the accident,
Above and among the clouds a group of five barely noticeable silhouettes were looking at a fading floating hologram,
As the person on the lead started talking " you all heard what the empress said, three shall stay and protect the prince, the rest are to find everything there is about the two cultivators from earlier, identify them, their origins and the reason they are here, who commands them, I want an all-rounded report in three hours " the sound was raspy and melodic making it clear the speaker was a female.
As the leader of the group stated her orders they started dispersing moving at a fast speed they looked no more than vague shadowy figures flying between the clouds, with their high cultivation no one could notice their existence even if they were flying above their heads.
With the female leader, two other cloaked people stood " we are going to accompany the prince while undercover, you know the protocol " looking below at Nich and Allen talking the leader said as her body turned into smoke as she disappeared.
On the ground, Allen finally felt the world stop rotating in his head, slowly he stood up, pain relevant in his expression Allen took out a small box from his pocket, opened it and took out a pill that he swallowed two of,
Closing his eyes for a moment, the unbearable pain he was feeling started fading, " are those soul-healing pills, how can you eat two like this " shocked Nicholas looked at Allen weirdly " Two pills at one time? isn't it a bit too much ?",
Allen looked at Nicholas with an equally weirded-out gaze as he replied " ....but it tastes nice? ",
Using his spiritual energy Allen circulated it through his clothes to dust off all the dirt on them, just as he wanted to say something to Nicholas, the sound of someone clearing their throat behind the two almost had their souls fleeing from their bodies from the fright,
Behind the duo, a woman who looked to be in her early twenties stood straight, sharp glare in her eyes, wearing a black coloured military uniform with pale reddish-gold designs on the edges, on her shoulder was a design declaring her rank as a captain and the hallmark of the Saint Rose division, a military division under the direct command of Davina,
Even though The captain from the Saint Rose division was mostly hiding her aura but slight occasional whisp was still terrifying. bowing in greetings " 5th captain of the Rose division offers her sincere greeting to his highness the second prince " she spoke.
Eyelid twitching Allen really wanted to act like he had nothing to do with this and just run away from this woman, but really he had no choice she was much stronger than the two people they just fought and she can probably find him where ever he hid, taking a deep breath, Allen nodded towards her " it's been a while, Alice, how are you doing lately? ".
Eyes sharpening Alice glared at Allen so hard she could've pierced a hole in his head " her majesty asks for your presence at the main mansion " Allen sweated in nervousness, he knew very well why his mother was calling
" Your highness, I still have a message to you from his majesty the emperor! " Alice said in her cold voice.
" for sure, do tell" Allen replied,
" his majesty the emperor warns you from using any form of draconic or divine arts again for the near future " her tone was cold and her eyes getting sharper by the second,
"umm yeah, I won't any draconic or divine arts at all " Allen replied quickly, wanting for this conversation to end and this temperamental captain to leave him alone, but apparently Alice took it the wrong way, as anger started showing on her face, she looked like a volcano about to erupt.
Fortunately, two other rose guards came from behind Alice, grabbed her and dragged her away.
heaving a sigh Allen looked at Nicholas "Hey Nich!, about the artifact from last time, how long will it take for it to be repaired? ",
" Not much, at most ten days, by then it would be barely restored to a usable state " Nicholas replied after a moment,
Allen had a slightly pensive expression as he said " Ten days aren't too long, what about the mask? did they succeed in refining it? ",
" Thanks to the materials you provided it was successfully refined into a dao treasure, we had already sent it to the old grandmaster to inscribe enchantment runes on it, so basically it's ready for whenever you want " Nicholas replied,
" That's good, just give me a heads up once they finish with the sword" Allen replied, After that Allen and Nicholas talked for a while then Allen said his goodbyes and left.
After walking for a while till a certain point, Allen stopped and ordered a car, around fifteen minutes later a black car with the plate of the Aeon family stopped beside him,
As the driver came out to greet Allen he opened the door, as Allen entered the car the driver closed the door and went to his driver's seat,
Allen took out his smartphone and dialled his maid, charlotte, after two rings charlotte's voice could be heard on the other side " Good morning prince ", " Good morning Charl, I want to know if the Hidden isles training fields are empty ?" ,
" Let me check for a sec "Charlotte's voice could be heard as she was talking with someone else, moments later her reply came " According to old man Quinn around half of the hidden isles are currently under restoration from the last time his majesty used it for training, the battle arena side of the isles will be ready to use again in few days ",
" Huh, father did it again?, What about the sword hall? is it useable " Allen asked,
Charlotte's reply sounded " The swords hall is free for the next four days "
" That's good, book it for me.... make it a for the whole rest of the day " Allen replied,
A moment later Allen said "let's meet there, Bring me the metallic case in my room with you ",
closing the phone Allen looked at the driver, " Hidden isles training area "
