Chapter 332
Their destination was at the center of the Underworld so, without wasting any more time enjoying the dead land, the trio entered Lucy’s Spirit Boat and rested while waiting for their short journey to end .
The Spirit Boat was much slower than both Lucy and Arthur bit it’s very practical and doesn’t consume Mana or Nether Energy . It just needs to be fueled by the Red Spirit Stones .
The blood red boat was like a shooting star as it bypassed all the other boats and flying beasts thus alarming the outsiders . Fortunately, no one was brave enough to provoke the owner of such a big and speedy boat, as for being ambushed by bandits, such a thing was pretty rare in the Lich King’s territory .
The lightning Fox clan was part of the central alliance, which is mainly composed of humans . The city was as bustling and lively as ever . It was forbidden to fly or use Spirit Boats when entering it which is why you’ll rarely see any flying boats in the air .
Arthur ignored such a rule and coated the boat using Space Magic thus making it turn invisible . With its incredible speed, it only needed a few minutes to arrive at the East of the city, where Miya’s clan was situated .
Miya was fidgeting with her fingers in nervousness and excitment . She’s been away from her family for five long years and it’s finally time for the reunion . She just hoped her grandmother doesn’t misunderstand start attacking the moment she sees Arthur as it will result in very unwanted consequences .
The granny is known to have a bad temper, especially when it’s related to her family, she would flare up the moment anything happens to her relatives . In the past, when Miya was kidnapped, she didn’t chase after them for fear of hurting her only family member .
Miya finally stopped them when they appeared above a gigantic statue of a five-tailed fox that had lightning crackling around it . Some disciples of the clan were kneeling in worship while others studied it to try and gain enlightenment .
"We’ve arrived . "
The trio stored the Spirit Boat and descended while still being invisible . Being seen in public would attract just too much hate from not only this clan but all the alliance . It’s better to enter unnoticed and quickly be done with this as weren’t planning to stay here for more than a day .
Swiftly, the three of them bypassed all the guards and the passing elders and headed directly to the main chamber, where the Granny, who was the current Matriarch, was probably at .
Indeed, as expected, in a Chinese-looking courtyard, devoid of any sound and with but a single person resting near a calm pond, Arthur spotted the old woman .
Since he perfectly hid their presences with his Space Magic, it would be impossible for a person at the God Realm to discover them, much less sense their presence .
The second she saw her grandmother, Miya ran up to her relative while disregarding Arthur’s prior order to not make too much noise .
The girl literally shouted at the top of her lungs as she jumped at the dumbfounded grandmother, hugging her tightly .
As for the old woman, she was in total disbelief even after feeling the warmth of granddaughter, who was crying while embracing her .
She only reacted after a few seconds passed, while caressing the soft back of the young girl, she let out a soft smile while saying
"Silly girl, a person who’s going to become a Matriarch shouldn’t cry so easily . "
Although she said that, the granny’s eyes were also a bit watery though she tried her best not to cry . Like this, the atmosphere remained joyful for quite some time until the granny finally noticed the presence of two additional people at her courtyard .
The moment the granny’s eyes landed on Arthur and Lucy’s figures, her eyes flashed with purple light, she pushed Miya behind her and coldly said
"What are you people doing here!?"
Before Arthur could explain, Miya nudged her grandmother’s sleeve and said
"Granny, t-they were the ones who brought me here!"
If not for hearing these words from her beloved granddaughter, the old woman would never have believed them . She hesitated for a few seconds while glaring at the couple before breathing out a sigh of relief
"I don’t know what were your purposes in the past but since you brought my granddaughter to me, I hold no grudge against you . However, that’s only because you never attacked my clan, if the rest of the alliance finds out you’re here then they’ll use everything they have to capture you . "
"You don’t have to worry about us . "
Arthur calmly replied as he assessed the old woman’s strength . Back in the days, he could only look at the Gods with awe as they were unreachable people, however, as he inspected this old God, he had complete confidence of winning in just one blow .
That’s to be expected after spending two hundred years training and strengthening his stats . He still hasn’t even possessed the two Divine Beast corpses in his storage or else he was sure his Realm would jump over to Sovereign .
Such a thing is surely beneficial but it would bring too many consequences, or so said his copy, who repeatedly warned him to only possess them when he becomes a Fusion Sovereign as it’ll be the perfect time to gain their Stats and the benefit would be much, much more abundant .
"Madam, we came here to allow you to reunite with Miya and most importantly, to apologize for our past actions . We didn’t have a choice so we were forced to take Miya with us to guarantee our safety . "
Lucy softly bowed to the old woman, Arthur did the same albeit reluctantly . As for the other party, when she saw them act this respectfully, she was even more shocked .
She could remember Arthur erasing many elders from the Royal Cobra Clan in one sweep and Lucy burning Gods left and right, it was truly a terrifying sight . For them to be acting this modestly right now was truly strange and made her feel uneasy .
. . . . . . . . . . . .
Back on Earth, in the new villa Arthur and co started living at, Lolitta finally managed to decipher what’s inside the capsule after spending a few days wholly focusing on it .
She looked haggard and her face was even a little pale . She looked at the coordinates and the message she decoded with a flabbergasted expression, only after a few minutes did she finally snap out of it .
"Tt-this is impossible! How could there be two of it? And who’s the one repeatedly asking for help . . . . "
Unfortunately, neither Arthur nor anyone else will find out what the capsule is about anytime soon as Lolitta seemed to have disappeared from Earth and no matter where they searched, they couldn’t locate her .
