563: 532 Chapter The Fae’s Big Trouble (3/3) 563: 532 Chapter The Fae’s Big Trouble (3/3) Although it sounded sowhat reminiscent of Count Phoenix’s rhetoric, when Count Phoenix and Ian said the sa words, the forr would be seen as a socially awkward straight male, while the latter would be viewed as the adorable Ian caring about himself.
“To go as far as to keep your life…
haha, but thank you for your concern,”
Tres didn’t take Ian’s words too seriously and considered them an overreaction typical of the youth, “This ti we have several squads, even led by a Great Knight of the Third Power Level—how could there possibly be a danger?”
Ian glanced at the mbers of Tres’s team.
Oh no, a complete wipeout.
Unlike Tres, who still had a slim chance of surviving, these Patrol Knight Apprentices were all but certain to die, with virtually no possibility of salvation.
The situation had just beco far more serious.
Although Ian knew the circumstances in the Western Territory were extrely critical, he hadn’t expected that even soone of the Second Power Level like Tres would be at great risk.
And while the Knight Order of Inspectorate Apprentices did have quite a few Nobles’ sons muddling through, most of those with Tres were actually rather competent—being favored by Deputy Commander Frostmark and seen as core material for the next generation of the Knight Order of Inspectorate, almost certainly to be appointed as Great Knights, there naturally wouldn’t be many of those rely filling the ranks for titles and honors.
After so thought, Ian couldn’t bear to watch soone he was acquainted with and who had given him two horses die like this, so he left with a piece of earnest advice, “Listen to , Tres, if you really think I’m a genius, possibly smarter than you.”
“Then believe , be extra cautious on this mission, bring full Spirit Energy resistance and anti-curse gear.
Oh, and drones, do a long-distance drone scout before getting close.”
“…
What do you know?”
Although Ian didn’t like being enigmatic, his words and actions just now were very much like those of an enigma, which made Tres slightly bewildered, “No, you definitely don’t know.
Just a mont ago, you were still unaware of what’s about to happen—so what have you figured out?”
“Why do you think I suddenly ca over to ask about the situation?”
Ian skillfully answered one question with another, a thod that would raise anyone’s blood pressure, but paired with the impression the youth gave others, it was enough to convey so sense of importance.
“Fine.”
Tres thought it over and decided it was better to trust Ian, “Then I’ll bring a few more drones.
I hope they will be useful.”
—They would definitely be useful.
Ian thought to himself, as he saw the deep crimson color of vibrant blood on Tres quickly diminish to a pale red, while among his team mbers, aside from the few that remained dark red, the rest also faded to varying degrees of pale and bright red.
It seed that this crisis was more covert, with a higher lethality, but if one knew about it in advance, it could be well prevented.
Although there was danger for soone of the Second Energy Level, it was unlikely that they would die.
After saying goodbye to Tres, Ian wasn’t in the mood to go back to his experints.
He prepared to return to the Isengarde Family to try and observe the Frost Butterfly, to indirectly predict his own future.
Unexpectedly, the fairies also seed to have plans of their own.
“Ian, good afternoon.
Are you here to have lunch together today?”
Hua’an greeted the white-haired young man quite elegantly—her elegance would’ve been a notch higher if it weren’t for the suspicious waterlon juice on her umbrella.
“Looks like you’ve already finished eating.”
Ian scanned the room, then said in surprise, “Eh, Mo Feng is here too?
And brought a lot of gear…”
On the other side of the room, Mo Feng was organizing a pile of oddly-shaped crystal Accessories; seeing Ian, she swiftly wrapped her hair into the shape of a hand and waved it as a form of greeting.
“Are you guys going out for sothing?” he guessed.
“To be precise, we are going to the Domain of Void.”
Hua’an spoke very seriously, her responsible and earnest side awakened when work was involved, “Mo Feng suddenly received a mission from Dream Academy this morning, stating that abnormal Spirit Energy distortions have appeared within the Empire, and since I was in the Imperial Capital, I decided to accompany her to observe.”
Ian raised his eyebrows slightly, ready to say sothing, but he saw Frost Butterfly flit across the room and land on his shoulder, “Eh, not drinking juice today?
Your scent is very fresh, and there’s a hint of floral fragrance…”
Ian’s words ca to an abrupt halt mid-sentence.
“I didn’t drink~” Frost Butterfly, oblivious to the change, proudly declared, “Today I had rose-flavored ice water!
It tastes really good.”
“Is that so, that’s good…”
Ian spoke with deliberation, seriously looking at Frost Butterfly, then at Hua’an and Mo Feng, his tone becoming thoroughly solemn, “Excuse for speaking frankly, Miss Fairies— the Domain of Void you are intending to visit…
does it correspond to the Western Frontier of The Empire?”
“Huh?” Hua’an, who had been looking for water to clean the waterlon juice on her umbrella, raised her head in surprise at these words and looked towards Ian, “How did you guess that?”
“Because I’ve been listening all day.” Ian offered no further explanation, but he was puzzled and alard by the dark crimson mist in the Foresight View and the scarlet mist on Frost Butterfly, “Can Frost Butterfly…
now go into the Domain of Void too?”
“Of course!”
Upon hearing this, Hua’an replied with evident pride, “Don’t judge by Frost Butterfly’s re months of wisdom; her Original Fairy form has been around for a long ti, naturally endowed with considerable spirit.”
“In other words, her potential is quite great.
Although sowhat unstable and not as outstanding as your talents, Ian, she can already stay in the Domain of Void for seven or eight minutes!”
It seed that this was the reason.
Ian understood.
At this mont, he was simply earnestly observing the dark red lightning mist around both Fairy Misses that signified ‘certain death without a miracle’ and pondering many things in his heart.
It seed that the events occurring within Duke Sorin’s Domain, although dangerous in the physical world, could still be avoided.
However, the crisis reflected in the Domain of Void was such that even the Fae could not escape it.
Moreover, Ian strongly suspected…
that the likely reason for Hua’an and Mo Feng’s deaths was mainly because they were fairies.
They simply lacked that concept!
And the danger to Frost Butterfly was probably due to her sensing that Hua’an and Mo Feng were in peril, so she dived into the Domain of Void to check—If she were proficient in diving in, they probably would all be done for, but precisely because Frost Butterfly was still inexperienced, there was a ray of hope for survival.
“I’ll co with you to take a look.”
Gathering all his thoughts, Ian said, “I have so intelligence from The Empire here that might help you as well.”
“It’s great if you’re willing to help.” “Thank you, Ian.”
Neither Hua’an nor Mo Feng minded, for the more the rrier, “Should we also bring Frost Butterfly?
I can introduce you to the scenery of the Domain of Void!”
And Ian saw that, with the addition of his human fuse, the mist around the two Fairy Misses changed from certain death back to the usual deep purple.
——Well, without soone to stop you, you’d just drop dead, but with soone there, there’s no danger, huh?
He sighed deeply in his heart, and it was not until now that he felt an extre sense of relief, his heart beginning to race: “That scared …
huh…
to co ho and see everyone looking like death, I’m lucky I’ve seen this kind of situation often…
No, that’s not a good thing at all, there’s nothing to be proud of!”
“This Prophet Spirit Energy really requires a strong heart…
One misstep and you could scare yourself to death!”
At this mont, Ian looked towards Frost Butterfly, who widened her eyes and quickly nodded, “Father…
I want to go!”
The mist around Frost Butterfly also turned back to blue.
This indicated no danger.
“Mhm.” Ian said in a sowhat tired voice, “Let’s all go together.”
After Mo Feng prepared all kinds of tools for observing the Domain of Void, the three fairies and Ian began to collectively sink into the Domain of Void.
The process was as before, accompanied by a sense of nihility as if leaving the body, and soon after ca the vast Soul World beyond the ‘cage of the body’—that is, the Domain of Void.
But the Domain of Void they saw today was not the sa as the one Ian had seen a few days ago.
The southwest of the Domain of Void was ablaze.
