Chapter 209: World cleansing (Part-2)
When Jai was moving towards the direction of Elderwood, he suddenly noticed a powerful source of magic power approaching him at a high rate and stopped to observe as the image of the woman became more and more clear.
'Morrigian, what is she doing here? Was she not tasked with the security of Kai's parents?'
Morrigan also sensed Jai's presence more clearly and slowed him down.
Jai reached out to her while waving his hands,"Morrigan, what are you doing here? What about Kai's parents?"
"Master has returned and sent me to help you out, he will also arrive within ten to fifteen minutes. But what about you? Cannot even handle these young Elderwood without exhausted your magic and mental strength. As far as I know dragons tend to have greater mental strength than humans and I can't believe that using rune magic would exhaust you so quickly even though it's consumed greater mental strength than elemental magic."
"This..."
Jai hesitated as he scratched his cheek with a embarassing smile and explained why it happened.
Listening to Kai's explanation caused Morrigan to become surprised and foolish but still she cannot discard the idea as she looked at the gigantic body of one hundred twenty moving towards them and smiled.
"So, you don't want to harm the core of the elderwood and want to cultivate them later to create an artificial cultivation plant for these thorny vines to make equipment?"
Jai nodded.
He had this thought when he was fighting these monsters.
Elderwood may be a mindless creature but it's vines are a treasure to make up for their lack of resources to create power war high grade equipment of transcendent rank.
"Will it be ok? If I destroy the outer shell and only leave the core?"
"Hmmm."
The little distance away from them, the land and the trees were in the worst distorted state caused by the passing by Elderwood. The dead dye up body of magic beasts have become a common scene as they give out green light which surrounds their body.
From a far away distance, the rulers of inner forest bodies tremble in fear with their loyal subordinate behind them with fear in their eyes.
For them it was a situation which they have never faced before in their life. Hundreds of Elderwood were killing and destroying their homeland because they could only watch and try to avoid attracting attention.
When they suddenly saw a woman with a familiar person beside her flying towards the elderwood most near to them which was in the process of evolution into a higher level Elderwood when a large five meter sword made of ice appeared in her hand out as she chopped the elderwood into half and a store away the core which looked like a seed into her spiral ring.
Leaving all of them bewildered.
Just this action alone makes them feel the fearfulness of the woman, not to mention the familiar person beside her.
'Lord Jai.'
The ruler's have already met him many times and are well aware of his strength but somehow their beastly instincts were letting them know that the woman is far stronger than Lord Jai even though they can't feel any magic strength from her.
The woman and lord Jai continued to roam around chopping Elderwood in half as they were ordinary trees with no power to resist.
The other Elderwood were also horrified and felt also had determined the woman was their arch and natural enemy but did not dare to attack her instead their natural instinct was telling them to run away.
They who were acting like rulers of the world some time ago were now nothing but prey under the butcher knife of their predictor.
Morrigan and Jai continued to chop and collect cores without stopping.
Meanwhile, Kai and Behemoon also arrived around the sky of formal army camp and saw soldiers packing their stuff and loading them into the carriages as they slowly landed on the ground a little distance away from the spot and walked towards the Jordan who still did not sense their presence and were busy commanding the soldiers.
Soldiers who saw a boy walking towards them accompanied by a beauty had different reactions; some became stiff while some were confused while some directly bowed to them.
These were the new candidates who were supposed to take part in selecting the Royal unit which least cultivation of early stage magic knights and work directly under the king.
Yet, their demonic instructor has told them not to have high hopes because he will not accept people below magic champion rank to become part of the royal unit.
Which left them almost hopeless one month ago but not now, it has now become an honour they look up to and try their best to reach that goal with harsh training each day without stopping to improve themselves.
Kai generally smiled and dismissed them, he saw a familiar face among.
'Ben.'
The person and soldiers who came to pick up Lopar fourteen years ago when he was working under the boundary guard and inspection unit. Kai left nostalgic seeing him among the candidates for royal guard and his cultivation was also in the last stage of Magic knight.
Ben also noticed Kai graze and gently bowed to Kai and hesitated for a bit before he said.
"It's been a long time, Your majesty. You have grown up into a fine young man from the child I saw then."
"It's been a long time indeed mister Ben. How have you been these years."
"I have been doing well, thank you for asking your majesty."
"That's good to know"said Kai as he patted his shoulder with smile.
While fellow soldiers who were friends with Ben looked at Ben with admiration.
They have heard from Ben many times how he had met his majesty when he was a three years old and how master lopar told him that he cannot become a magic user or fighter but nobody believed him, after all it's a known fact that his majesty is a genius in path of magic and already has cultivation of magic warrior at the age of seventeen.
While, Soldiers were discussing among themselves how to get closer to Ben.
Ben and Kai talked a little about their past year life experiences as Kai said him goodbye and went to talk to Jordan who was not busy anymore and turned around to see Kai walking towards him.
"Your Majesty, When did you arrive?"asked Jordan in a respectful manner.
"Just a moment ago. I didn't want to disturb you while you are acting with so much dedication to work. So, I was waiting for you to finish your work."
Jordan felt flattered on hearing Kai's opinion.
"There was no need for your majesty to wait, I Jordan is always free to respond to your majesty command without delay."
Behemoon who was standing behind Kai smiled a little and felt that Jordan was trying to flatter Kai.
As Jordan and Kai continued to talk about their present situation they are dealing with.
Kai also learns about the condition of Jai and smiles at Jordan.
"There is no need to worry. I have already sent my servant to help Jai."
"Your majesty, Servant?"muttered Jordan.
Kai nodded.
"They would be back soon,"replied Kai as he looked towards the horizon and the elderwoods who seemed to be running around in fear.
