"You brats shouldn't pull a stunt like this in the royal capital, or you will get killed" The trio turn to look at each other with surprised expressions, only nodding to each other when they understood the situation.
Singing as he rode the carriage was none other than Rowan.
"Ridin' through the canyon, with the sun on my back
I'm searchin' for a place to call my own, where I can rest my tack
I've been drivin' horses, from the Rio to the Plains
But now I'm feelin' lonely, and my heart's feelin' pains
Oh, the wind it whispers, secrets, as I ride along
Of a love that's waitin' for me, where the sun shines strong
I'll keep on ridin', till I find my way
To the heart of the one I love, come what may
I dream of wide open spaces, and a love that's true
A place to call my own, where my heart can renew
I've been from Iceland to Entrea, and all points in between
But without my sweet darlin', it's just a lonely scene"
inside the carriage Laston could seen in a lotus position, he couldn't cultivate yet but any opportunity to gain knowledge was used with precision as was instructed by Magnus who happened to be quite good at teaching contrary to what he thought.
"Master the human female speaks to you," Castor said as Laston could not hear anything as long as he was in the sword space, Castor was to tell him of any occurrence that took place while he was in there.
Laston's brows furrowed in irritation as he was in the middle of a lesson with Magnus, "what does she want?" Laston asked moments later.
"the female human wants to know whether you are an extension of the royal family and how you were able to acquire us."
moments later Laston eyes slowly shot open, lifting his gaze to Victoria who was seemingly waiting for a response for a while now. "No, I am not an extension of the royal family, the sword was given to me randomly he said with a stern look.
If you're not affiliated with the royal household how are you able to do this?
The next moment Lynx and Laston were left in shock as Victoria exuded spiritual energy though Albeit faint.
"You're like me," Laston said in shock
Finally getting a reaction from Laston, "Now you didn't think you were the only one did you?" she responded with a smile.
"How are you able to do that?" Lynx asked with curiosity.
"Families affiliated with the royal family are given The Excessive Dew," she responded with a smile, Looking at Lynx who still gave her the look of, 'What the fuck is excessive dew.'
she continued immediately understanding the situation, "The Excessive Dew is a rare essence given at infancy, its properties increase the mana or spiritual energy capacity and enlarge the daitan."
"As a result of its properties, the infant upon which it is used has an abundance of mana or spiritual energy which causes leaks from the sealed core, it is majorly used during infancy due to the malleable nature of babies."
"Although it differs from person as its effect can't be attained by everyone, it probably has something to do with our physique, I don't know much as my knowledge is limited."
she said before she was hit by a realization, "Wait, if yours is not as a result of The Excessive Dew, then how are you able to release your spiritual energy?"
Well its.... He stopped as he turned his gaze to Hendrick, who have been quite listening to their conversation with keen ears trying to find any hint to their Identity.
"Hendrick?" Victoria called out
"My Lady?" Hendrick responded
"Join the coach man you might find his jingles quite interesting," Victoria said as she pulled on the broken rope the next moment the carriage came to a stop.
"My lady I was assigned to watch over you," Hendrick said in a futile attempt to remain in the carriage
"And you are but you will be doing that beside the coachman or else you prefer to end your journey here," Victoria retorted, just then, a knock was heard on the door.
"What seems to be the matter?" Rowan asked from the other side of the door.
On opening the door, Hendrick highlighted the carriage with a smug look on his face, I will join you.
"The more the merrier eh, you do know the southern jingles don't you," Rowan said with a smile as he continued their journey while Hendrick sat beside him.
"You can speak freely his gone," Victoria said looking at Laston.
"No he might be gone physically but he can still listen to us," Laston said
"No he can't as he's not a cultivator, but a magician, so he can't use God's eyes as its a technique unique to cultivators," Victoria said with an assuring gaze.
"Truth be told I don't know how I am able to do it," Laston shrugged as he replied in a nonchalant way, which prompted a smug look from Victoria, "and here I thought you wanna say something worth listening to."
after that, the carriage returned to absolute silence. As Laston returned to the sword space he was met by a ferocious battle between Magnus and Splinter, see this he could only smile and proceeded to leave the sword space once more.
Returning to the abrupt silence he lifted his gaze to Victoria who was starring back at him with curiosity.
"And the legendary pervert strikes again," Lynx said in a voice that could be heard by only Razor and Laston.
Razor who hadn't spoken a word since the journey burst into laughter followed by Lynx, Laston's face shot up with redness as he quickly averted his gaze from Victoria who was oblivious to Laston's infamous title as an exalted pervert.
Only getting curious as to the reason why the previously composed Laston was suddenly nervous
after the laughing had died down they all heard a grumbling sound, turning to the source of the sound which was Razor who immediately bent his head down timidly which ignited another barrage of laughter from Laston and Lynx.
The hunter becomes the hunted Lynx said as he wiped the tear from the corner of his eyes.
"Hahahaha," Victoria giggles Understanding a little of the situation
