As Alex left the place the surroundings slowly started shimmering the dust began to fly five figures each with large black and brown wings landed at the same time the ground trembled and a deep web formed at the place where they landed.
They looked at the dead body of the aeronauts which Alex examined. One of them wearing a Yellow robe with the crest of a golden color eagle imprinted on it sat near the dead body with a smirk and commented" What do I tell you not to be overconfident and look what you are now " he pushed his hand on his chest and tore through his chest some kind of chip which was like a dip into sauce came in his hand he broke it.
" Everyone listen carefully our mission is to bring the dead body of that legendary beast to the capital it will not only provide us reward also its essence will also help the young prince a lot as in a few years he will attend The Pentacrest Academy ." commanding yellow robe Aeronauts with a stern look they start moving.
" According to the information when a legendary beast gives birth it is said to be in a weak state which is most safest time to hunt for one. And it is when most of the beast attacks the beast who wants to become strong so instead of attacking they usually aim for the child of the beast." one of the back people said while looking at a screen in his hand.
The one who wore a black robe looked around and found something amiss according to him beast should be around but here along with a few dead bodies nothing was present " So why is there no beast around have they already dealt with it"
Yellow who was first to stop after listening didn't waste a minute and spread his wings and suddenly ran straight to the cave and entered leaving behind four of Aeronauts.
As soon he entered he found nothing but an empty cave " Where the HELL DID IT GO????" with the fiery face he scanned the whole place nothing at all was present.
" drip "
A drop fell on his face from the roof of the cave as he looked above the ice was melting not only that but the whole cave was melting without waiting he left the cave.
His actions barely took 2 minutes even faster than Maggie he was standing in front of the four one of them without thinking said " What should we do what are we gonna show the Minister "
The yellow robe who was already irritated made him worse the robed man who was speaking was white robe he looked at the yellow robe but suddenly felt his vision going upside down he saw his headless body which was separated by a stick which was like a sword stick beside his buttered neck which was held by the black robe.
Now the menace is dealt what are we gonna do "
Whoever this person is kill them If any of u find them they try to hunt on the hunt of the Aeronauts let them tell who we are "The yellow-robed man with glaring eyes looked into the sky and flew.
They all left the place as they didn't find anything in the surroundings, not any hint or footsteps as the ice outside of the cave melted before they even came erasing any evidence of anyone's presence.
Alex was standing again near the same waterway that he was following before as he marked the tree so as not to get lost with an egg in his hand he continued moving.
Alex's hair which was sky blue started to have a few white hair with white shades matching that of the ice. And his hold now a strong purple shade.
" Rustle "..."Rustle "
several footsteps running on grass caught Alex's ear and as he looked back a horde of monsters which included guardians and even one of them was like a lion with a horse body as his torso. Most of them included apex predators few were guardians and one of them was The Eldritch Horror.
Alex in his mind said to himself 'Did I offend someone why are these behind me.' he continued running after having the essence of the Seraphina Alex's understanding of wind drakes essence understanding reached higher.
Alex focused on his legs and two small air tornados formed behind his feet back speeding him up. Evading the attacks of beasts.
Two days later
Alex was out of power many small beasts died while following him getting crushed by large beasts. Only a large beast powerful among them was chasing Alex their relentless charge had taken a toll on Alex's body on his back several bruises had already been drawn.
The beasts were following Alex as they had put the track on Alex's back whether he somehow evaded them or still they got near him.
The egg was now near his chest afraid to break it Alex changed the egg's position. Suddenly something jumped at him from Alex's front not able to tackle Alex thought he would fall but he didn't fall and even the thing that came didn't harm him. Alex focuses on his shoulder.
" Squiiiii "
The squirrel was on his shoulder.
" You are here " Alex immediately stared at the squirrel who in a happy mood jumped from Shoulder to his head.
" ROOoaaaar " Disturbing their meeting made Alex focus on his surroundings. And only the sky was visible to Alex. He just jumped from a cliff which was deep even more than that mountain on which he was kidnapped.
Alex with his trembling hands focused as if he was out of energy with the last ounce of power he formed a small air tornado on his right leg making his fall slower. The squirrel was hanging on the piece of clothes which was wrapped around Egg.
Slowly Alex somehow reached the ground and a fall squirrel sat on him. As if suggesting something he saw. Squirrel goes inside his clothes brought a silver cube. Alex held it and opened it. Squirrel jumped into the box and picked up the feather.
Alex understandingly asked" You want to wrap this around Egg "
squirrel nodded.
Alex took the two feathers and wrapped them around the egg. The tremors around stopped as all the beast lost their fire in their eyes. Alex closed his eyes while hugging Egg covered with feathers and slept. He was dead tired he had been running for two days squirrels making space for themselves slept between them.
