Chiron turned to the maid and gave her a charming smile. "How are you doing Tanya!?"
"Fine your highness!" she shyly tried to hide her face.
Chiron walked up to her, "Thank you for the message!"
She nodded and then turned to leave.
However, she hit a table in her nervousness. She nodded in apology as she tried to hide her blush, hurrying out of the room.
Chiron's eyes escorted her out of the Library.
"Do you fancy that one!?" a voice asked from behind.
Without turning, Chiron knew who it was. After all, she was once as innocent as this maid before she met him.
Chiron turned to her, "are you curious Carla!?"
Carla shook her head, "I only pity her!"
Chiron willed and the book he was reading disappeared into his storage, "me too!" he whispered as he left the Library.
As he walked towards the Hall way, a shadow pool materialized by his side and Hunter popped out of it.
Somewhere along the way, Emma also joined them.
All of them walked behind him.
Tanya had just reported that Commander hardstone was waiting for Chiron.
At the moment, he was going to the tesseract that would take him to the central Barracks.
This was going to be the place where he would take his own army for the oncoming war.
Just as there walked through the Hall way, Emma suddenly felt a pull on her wrist, and she was pulled into a corner.
This took her by surprise.
However, her assailant covered her mouth with a hand. it was Prince Victor.
This was a closet were the maids kept the cleaning equipment used in this hallway.
She gave a light struggle for release, however, he would not let her go.
He was angry from all that had happened with Chiron during the meeting, and then he tried to talk with his father but nothing changed.
At the moment, he wanted nothing more than to vent his frustration the only way he knew how.
Also, there was no one he wanted more now than he wanted Emma. After all, she was the best he had ever had.
He bent her over a slab that had cleaning equipment on it, and then while using a hand to cover her mouth, he lifted her long flowing gown and rammed inside her like a Bull in heat.
He was forceful and her low moans went out as such.
Meanwhile, Chiron kept on walking forward as if nothing had happened.
Just before they got to the landing spot where they would board the Tesseract, someone appeared in front of him.
"Elder Baldie!"
The Elder gave a customary bow to Chiron, "I only thought of seeing off on your way!"
Chiron nodded at this. "Thank you!"
"Well! I got you a little traveling present for the road!" As he said this, he clicked his fingers and a maid stepped forward with a ring.
Carla stepped forward and collected the ring on behalf of Chiron.
This was a spatial ring.
Carla used her demon energy to scan the content with her mind and then whispered its contents into Chiron's ear.
In the spatial ring were some blue cores and one Core of a Cored beast that was different and far unique from all the others. In this life, This was the first time that Chiron had come across it.
This was a red core.
Chiron nodded in understanding, "a VERY generous gift there!"
"No! its just something small. Just a little out stretch hand for your comfort on the road."
Chiron raised a brow at this, "something small!?" he thought to himself.
Chiron nodded once more at him, and then proceeded to leave.
"Just one more thing before you leave!" Elder Baldie's voice came from behind.
Chiron gave a slight smile. Without a doubt, he expected this. there was no way that this man was going to give out something so generous as the core of a red-cored beast and not make a request.
"That Spatial ring unfortunately has a little flaw to it. I suggest that you maybe visit the Tribe area of the Giant Untamed snake tribe to get it fixed. After all, it is just en route to the Central Barracks. An elder of the Tribe will be there to attend to you!"
Chiron turned back to him, "Thank you very much for the advice."
Truly, Chiron admired this man's skill.
He was currently baiting Chiron with the spatial ring.
After all, the contents in there were very attractive, and most useful.
It was true that in a kingdom like Vandora, Cored stones from beasts could not be used as currency, but that did not mean that they did not have other uses.
Of course a range of them still included absorption to increase one's cultivation.
However, people of this level of sophistication already had a way to minimize the level of impurities that got into one's body from taking in energy from the cores of Cored beasts.
Also, the Value of a Red core was a lot. After all, it equated to a cultivator in the bronze rank.
This core alone in the eyes of anyone was more valuable than the entire Chikitsa clan.
Chiron got into the Tesseract. Carla and Hunter followed along.
However, Chiron instructed Commander Hardstone to wait a while.
Another thirty minutes passed and Emma came to join them.
Chiron nodded at her, "good job!"
She understood why he praised her, and she nodded in response.
The Tesseract took to the sky and as it left, the Dragon followed behind it.
Chiron observed the Ring that he had been gifted.
He willed with his spiritual energy, but just like Elder Baldie had said, the Spatial ring was faulty.
Spatial treasures were used to store items in this world. But such expensive treasure could be found nowhere else unless in the hands of the rich and powerful.
Even within the Vandora kingdom, only the royal family, and high-ranking nobles of the major tribes had access to them.
Also, if a Spatial item were destroyed, the items within it would also be destroyed.
Chiron sighed as he informed Commander Hardstone that he would be having a quick stop at the Tribal Area of the Giant untamed Snake tribe for a brief moment.
However, a brief moment equated to over a day, and Commander Hardstone even had to Leave Chiron behind in other to attend to other matters that concerned the way.
It was only about two days later, did Chiron make it to the central barracks. Of course, he had come standing on his Dragon.
...
Meanwhile, things had not been easy for Dylan and Deamon. Winter had kicked in with a good snow storm to announce its arrival.
The plans for the war had popped up unexpectedly.
Worse part, it had come up during Winter.
It was tradition for new recruits to be reoriented before they joined the army proper.
However, it was also tradition for the armies participating in the war to gather at the central Barracks to receive the blessings of the Bear mother through the Elder Shaman.
For this reason, this last few days had been like hell for the new recruits.
The reason was that they were made to train on the long match to the Central Barracks.
There carried logs of wood on their backs as they matched following the slow moving Tesseract in the sky. Its slow speed was because of the recruits that were being trained.
Since they started, they had only been given breaks once every six hours that only lasted for thirty minutes.
Whether it was day or night, they were required to keep jogging forward.
Of course, the children from their orphanage were not the only ones.
They were also children from orphanages and war volunteers from all over other parts of the kingdom.
In his life, Dylan had to admit that he had never been through such pain.
For the very first time, he really wished the sun was out. It was not easy for them to run through the thick snow, and falling behind was not an option.
Behind them to monitor their advance were soldiers with long windy whips.
Anybody that was caught slacking behind was whipped until they caught up back.
If a person were to fall to the ground, giving up, the person will be whipped until they got back on their feet.
These whips that were used had special attributes attached to them that gave the feeling that one was being stung by a snake.
No one wanted to be unfortunate enough to feel it.
One time, one of the children fell to the ground. According to the medic, he was dead.
However, just to confirm his death, he was still beaten mercilessly. After which his head was cut off and his body left behind.
The head would be sent back home for his family for confirmation of his weakness during training.
After seeing the clear example that was the first person's death, no one wanted to lack behind again...
