BXBX NOVEL Chapter 507 Welcome Back Wisey (2)
"Oh, it must have been hard on you… then do not worry. Just eat up and rest for a while. Your father and I will inform your grandpa about your absence." His mother, Shesha, finally became at ease upon hearing his son\'s reply.
After all, dragons were used to living in the high heat mountains and not underwater.
On the other hand, his father, Fabio frowned in displeasure.
What is his son glaring at? When did he ever grow this disrespectful?
His son looked at him as if he owed him his life or something. But no matter how many times he thought of the possible reason, Fabio could not figure it out.
Calderon only kept mum as he ate the food quietly. He knew very well that he must not cause any commotion at this time and ruin his grandparents\' reunion with the Forgeworns. He decided to hold his emotions in until the banquet ended.
After all, everything will unravel when Little Han would take out of the nest to ask for his Grandpa\'s help.
Thus, even if the family of three seemed to have an awkward reunion, the banquet went well without any mishaps.
"Wahh… sweepy.." Little Han yawned while his plate was packed with so much food given by the servers who looked at him smilingly.
"Me too…"
"Sleepy…" The rest of the kids also expressed their tiredness as they tried hard to eat their meals.
Eli noticed the mood of the kids and so she called the rest of the women and took Little Han and the kids to rest while they politely asked the Grand Chief and the elders for permission to retreat.
"It\'s alright young lady… We can catch up tomorrow. The kids may have suffered from the sudden change of environment as they stayed quite a while underwater. They\'ll be fine if you let them rest until tomorrow."
Alynne responded and allowed the mothers and the kids to go.
Eli and Little Han were then escorted into one of the building\'s guest rooms.
Like the bejeweled theme of the entire interiors of the hall, the bedrooms were also designed lavishly. Fortunately, it seemed that the dragons also prepared for their arrival and so the room had an unmatched piece of human furniture around.
The off-themed large bed and the sofa chairs around were a testament to it.
Eli could not help but feel strangely moved as she knew that dragons often wanted to have jewelry and gemstones around and so their beds were designed according to that theme, which they knew would be uncomfortable with Eli and Little Han.
Eli laid Little Han on the bed to change his clothes. After the two of them prayed, she started to pat him to sleep.
As he patted Little Han to sleep, she could not help but feel worried about Leon.
He told her that he would be uncontactable for about fifteen days which made her feel anxious. He explained that they were about to execute an infiltration task and it is not ideal for him to contact her from time to time.
Equally scared that her insistence might even make Leon\'s circumstance more dangerous because of her clinginess, Eli could only tighten her heart and agree.
"Oh, Great One, whatever circumstance he was in at the moment, please make sure that he and all the people who worked for the peace of Prasinos will be safe and alright." Eli prayed once more as she remembered Grandpa Andi, Grandpa Ben, Randel, and many more.
All of them are preparing for war and in just a few days, the first sound of the war trumpet might be heard.
She intensified her prayers the more her heartfelt unease. Also, she did not forget to ask for guidance about their upcoming trip to the temple.
Seeing that Little Han was now deep asleep, she opened the book of knowledge, the book she now seldom uses because she had been occupied by the matters at hand.
Taking a glance at the book, she wondered at some point she somehow had forgotten to check on it for some answers. After all the mysteries about the curse were never found in it and she could only investigate or experiment if she needed information.
This must be the biggest reason why she found herself not relying on the book ever since the last clash with Carolina.
She opened the book and tried to key in the words Holy Island. The book lit up faintly and showed the entire vicinity of the island.
She was also given a detailed blueprint of the structure, to her surprise!
What\'s more, the blueprint also revealed a mysterious structure under it. Albeit no details about it were indicated as compared to the other parts of the Holy Island, it was still a great revelation!
Eli\'s eyes lit up, she did not expect to see such information becoming available in the book of knowledge.
With that Eli has an idea.
She started to type in several words like \'Asani\', \'Curse Potion\', \'Curse Users\', and so on.
Then she found out that the information that was currently locked before was now unraveled at once. Could it be that because she investigated it that the information also became available?
Then does that mean that the guardians or the heavens were not really hiding this information from her but are actually also blocked somehow by the enemy?
Would that be the reason why the heavens do not have knowledge about the curse?
And now that she, Kayden, and the rest of the people who investigated this moved to discover many things, then the book of knowledge also recorded it!
Somehow it also leads to the book of knowledge unlocking several forms of information.
\'Anyways, the blueprint of the Holy Island will be useful for us.\'
\'With this, Brother Kayden and I will already know what place to target.\' She thought as she looked at the vaguely drawn underground structure lying directly on the grounds of the main temple.
She tried researching for more, but she only managed to gather how many registered temple servants, priests, and knights were on the island right now.
Fortunately, the Pope and the fake paladin were not included in the list. When she typed their keywords in the book it appeared that their whereabouts were already on the main Seirende Island.
Eli\'s heart leaped and it raced rapidly, the Pope and the fake Paladin were about to approach the location where Leon and the rest were going.
She had to make Leon\'s party know somehow about it. But she knew that Leon would be unreachable right now… so how shall she inform this?
Besides, how could she explain the sources of this information?
Eli thought for a while and decided to visit Kayden to ask for his advice.
As Kayden looked at all the information Eli was able to get from the book of knowledge, he did not doubt it in the slightest.
"Brother, we might need to infiltrate the Holy Island right away. We have to somehow disrupt the Pope and the fake Paladin\'s momentum to force them not to advance." Eli mumbled.
"Let\'s inform the Grandmasters and the Emperor first. They\'ll know what to do." Kayden patted Eli\'s head to try to ease her anxiousness.
"Alright…" Eli tried to calm herself down and trusted Kayden\'s judgment. After all, when she is emotional like this, she is bound to not think soundly.
"As for this blueprint and other information, give me time to understand it. For now, we shall stay here until everything is ready. I\'ll be the one to contact the elders about this. We will also have to inform the Grand Chief about this too." Kayden patted her shoulders and encouraged her to sleep.
Eli could only sigh and nod. She understands that as of now, all she could do is trust the people working on the war from the other side.
With that, Eli went back to the bedroom and joined Little Han to sleep.
When the morning came, her tensed muscles from last night\'s accidental research had already relaxed.
After some time, the dragon servants knocked and helped them to prepare. Just like when they were in the Merland, they are set to have breakfast to meet the leaders of the territory.
Not long after that, they were now set to go to the dining hall to meet the family of the dragon leaders.
But on the other side, still, on the way to going to the dining hall, Calderon waited until his father was alone and immediately blocked his way.
"What\'s the matter, son?" Fabio looked at the aggressive look of his son and wondered if the lad was suddenly in his rebellious days.
Calderon clenched his fist as he looked at this father\'s expression which screamed that he had no idea what he did wrong.
And so he gritted his teeth and asked, "Father, do you dare to swear that you have not cheated on mother in any way?"
