BXBX NOVEL Chapter 193 A Special Attack
"So, any news regarding master?", Terran asked the returning elven scouts.
"Unfortunately no.", the leader of the scout group replied.
It seemed as if he was a bit tired for some reason - he had explored a large part of the forest after all so it was understandable.
"Hmm..."
"I think tomorrow will be better.", Terran said while looking towards the starry sky.
\'Yet another day has passed and there is no news regarding master...\'
\'Surely he is alive after all the crest is still present but I am unsure if he is safe.\'
\'He might be strong but there are times when even strong ones are hunted just because they underestimate or let down their guard.\'
\'Well, master will surely be safe. He is not the one to let his guard down.\', there were tons of thoughts going on in Terran\'s mind.
He was unsure if they should go in search of him. They knew that it would be a hindrance or cause some sort of problem because of which Shin left them here.
So he wanted to respect his wishes, however, after finding the first beast who spoke with him and released him from his misery, partially though, he was tense since he wanted to repay the favor as well.
So in this manner, a few days passed. Exactly around 7 days, it was the first time when the scouts returned with good news.
"We-"
"We found him!", said many of them.
"What!?", Terran and others were surprised and happy at the news.
"Where? How is he?"
"Did you ask him why he left suddenly?", Terran jumped forward to ask this.
Alira was sad all these times and after hearing this, she too stood up and got excited since she finally knew that they were going to meet soon.
"Well, we found him but we didn\'t get the chance to approach him.", the elven leader said.
"What?!"
"Yes. It was probably because we exhausted too much amount of mana but we could no longer afford to move forward."
"Our body had become too weak due to aging so even a single step could have been fatal.", he said.
"I-"
"I see."
Terran looked a bit satisfied and worried at the same time. He still wanted to know if Shin was alright and why he left suddenly but there was nothing that he could do other than ask about him.
"So, where did you see him specifically?" - he asked.
The Arb elves told about the farthest end, the route that would take them eventually towards the human kingdom Loria.
Loria - even though it had less population, it had been established ages ago. Even before Terran was born, the kingdom was present - of course, at that moment it was only known as a village but it had the same name.
"Hmm..."
Terran wanted to run and immediately go and find Shin however he held back. Yes, he held back his desire with all his might in order to prevent making any mistakes.
He was a wolf now and he had to accept that fact. His level had been dropped significantly and his powers were deeply restricted which meant that he wouldn\'t be able to stand against powerful beasts.
Thus, he decided to stay there instead of wandering without actually knowing the exact direction and getting into danger again and again.
And even though he had taken those all precautions and thought about all these things, he was forced to go!
Yes, in the end, he did go however this time, it was not to find Shin directly - it was to find Alira!
She ran away as soon as she heard where they had seen Shin without even thinking anything properly. Terran came to know about this when he could no longer find Alira.
"Everyone is present here except her!", Terran was referring to Alira.
"Now where did she go?", right after asking this, he decided to go and search.
Of course, the elves were tired so Terran decided that it was enough if they rested instead of getting into trouble by joining them.
Though the elves leader and others recommended themselves joining, Terran forbade again.
The only ones that could go and exit the forest were Terran and Kaily.
Initially, Terran thought that he would be enough to find Alira, however, the forest seemed new to him! Many new trees had grown after all and many other changes had taken place.
So of course, it would be completely new to him.
"Brat, it\'s better if I accompany you.", Kaily knew the forest well since she was present here all this time.
It was a good idea if she were to come with him after all she could even provide potions for him to heal. Other than shapeshifting or changing appearances, she was highly knowledgeable about the forest so it was beneficial.
"Alright, let\'s go."
Both of them then ran towards the direction which the elves had specified.
"How troublesome..."
"..."
Terran sighed again and again because he kept getting into accidents.
"This body is highly inconvenient!", he exclaimed.
"Haha, what are you talking about brat?"
"I think this body is perfect in this kind of forest.", Kaily laughed at Terran.
Terran was hanging upside down. It was the work of a \'Trap Tree\' whose roots work like a net and capture the prey and pull them upwards.
Of course, the roots are stronger than the steel so the prey often is unable to escape and dies because of hunger. After that, the tree absorbs the natural mana from the dead body which starts to leave the body.
"Tsk, free me already grandma!", Terran called out Kaily.
"Whom are you calling a grandma!?", Kaily looked at Terran with ferocious eyes.
"Ugh, sorry..."
"Will you please free me!", he cried.
"Sigh..."
"Destroyer Eyes."
Kaily murmured that right after which her eyes started to glow with red light. All of a sudden, the steel-reinforced roots tore into shreds and Terran fell on his head on the ground.
"Wha-"
"What was that!?", Terran was surprised to see that he was freed so easily but more than that, he was awed by Kaily\'s attack.
"Hehe, that was my special attack..."
"Sp-special attack?"
"..."
