Chapter 491 - A Woman's Intuition

"How are the tribesmen's preparations going?" Leon asked while gazing at the idle tribesmen in the distance.

Supreme Elder Haldir followed Leon's gaze before he explained, "These tribesmen have lost their homes during the ground collapse. They have nothing to bring with them except whatever is left below. As for the rest of the tribe, they will still need some time. It's not easy to mobilize the entire tribe."

"I see." Leon nodded.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "It will be a waste if we leave anything of value behind like the herbs lying around. The Crawford Empire is not exactly abundant in herbs. The tribesmen should help carry these herbs and seeds. In return, they will be rewarded."

"Not a bad idea, young prince. It will keep these tribesmen busy and help them take their mind off their losses." Supreme Elder Haldir commented with a nod before saying, "I will arrange it."

After calling over a few elven warriors and speaking a few words to them, Supreme Elder Haldir sent them off to relay his message to the idle tribesmen.

"The rest of you, continue to practice your flying skills!"

"Yes, Supreme Elder!"

Shortly after the surrounding elven warriors left the area, Supreme Elder Haldir returned his attention to Leon before asking, "What happened to your attire, young prince? If you don't mind me asking."

"Oh, this?" Leon glanced at the dried saliva and blood on his body before gazing at Silver, "I also wonder about that too. You should know what happened, right?"

"Ar-rooff!" Silver responded while shaking its head dumbly.

Supreme Elder Haldir quickly understood Leon's meaning and became surprised by Silver's playful behavior.

Doubts seeped into his heart before Supreme Elder Haldir asked, "Is this really the Skysilver Beast King? What happened to it?"

Seeing the Supreme Elder pointed at his head when he said this, Leon answered, "A deterioration of intellect after being infected by Demonic Energy. Right now, it's no different to a child."

"I see… To think there would be a day I get to see the Skysilver Beast King reduced to a pet… Ah, no. I did not mean anything by this. Congratulations on gaining a powerful pet, young prince." Supreme Elder Haldir said.

Leon waved his hand, not minding the Supreme Elder's words at all. On the other hand, Silver snorted with displeasure.

"Oh, yes. There are some changes to the plan, Marquis Haldir. I believe with this improved plan, the risks will be much lower." Leon suddenly said.

"Oh?" Supreme Elder Haldir was pleasantly surprised before he said, "Let us hear it, young prince."

Leon nodded.

While Leon began explaining the details of the new plan to the Supreme Elder, Aria took out a fresh white cloth from her interspatial ring and wiped Leon's face clean with tender care.

After Supreme Elder Haldir finished listening to Leon's plan, he went silent while running the visual simulation in his mind.

Sometime later, Supreme Elder Haldir spoke while clapping his hands together, "Flashy. But I like it. Although the rat tide will be closer, it's actually more foolproof. I don't see any problem with this plan."

Leon smiled lightly in response.

"I will take all the proficient flyers with me to set the route ahead for us." Supreme Elder said before preparing to leave immediately.

It was a long way to the Great Wall by foot, especially while carrying goods with them. The sooner the road is paved, the less they would be delayed.

"Alright." Leon nodded before saying, "Take the airs.h.i.+p with you, Marquis Haldir. Its loud noise is a good source of attraction."

"I will. Thank you, young prince."

"Safe travels, Marquis Haldir."

Shortly after Leon big his farewell, the Supreme Elder Haldir round up the elven warriors and departed for the eastern direction.

The migration route was as follows; exiting from the Great Forest's eastern outskirts before making a beeline southeast for the Great Wall.

If not for something Leon wanted to check before he leave Elvengarde, he would have offered to accompany the Supreme Elder.

Not long after Supreme Elder Haldir left, Princess Faelyn could be seen making her way over through the busy group of elves scavenging the area for anything useful to take with them on the journey.

Princess Faelyn seemed to have something to talk about but changed her mind after seeing Leon's appearance and decided to bring it up later.

"Would you like to pay our tribe's bathhouse a visit for a wash, Prince Leon? Us elves quite pride ourselves on our hygiene." Princess Faelyn suggested politely with a light boast.

After Leon sniffed himself and crumpled his expression slightly from the stench, he nodded, "Alright, I think I will just take you up on that offer, Faelyn. Is there enough s.p.a.ce in the bathhouse for this big oaf too?"

Princess Faelyn followed Leon's pointed-thumb gesture before becoming startled by the big three-tailed silver wolf soaked in dry rat blood behind him.

"Arf, arf!" Silver barked twice in response even though it did not know what Leon meant by big oaf. It only understood that it was going to get cleaned.

"This is…" Princess Faelyn began to question.

"The Skysilver Beast King."

"Oh, the Skysilver Beast King's offspring…"

"No, the Skysilver Beast King itself." Leon corrected Princess Faelyn's misunderstanding, causing her eyes to shortly widened in response.

However, Princess Faelyn quickly recovered and nodded, "The public bathhouses in the tribe are built to hold hundreds of elves. There will be plenty of s.p.a.ce."

"I see, that's great."

Shortly after, Leon turned to his side and asked with a smile, "Do you want to join me, Aria?"

Seeing the hidden intention in Leon's smile, Aria smacked his chest lightly with a blush, "We—I am still clean from the last bath. You can enjoy your bath alone. I will find something else to do."

There were other people around. She was not bold enough to accept his invitation.

"Alright. Wait for me." Leon smiled, not minding Aria's rejection in the slightest. He shortly returned his attention to Princess Faelyn and said, "Please lead the way, Faelyn."

"Of course. Right this way, Prince Leon." Princess Faelyn gestured.

Leon nodded and called out, "C'mon, Silver. Let's go get ourselves washed up."

"Arf, arf!" Silver responded excitedly.

Just as Princess Faelyn was about to leave with them, Aria pulled her over and whispered, "Is everything alright, Princess Faelyn?"

Princess Faelyn's expression changed slightly before it quickly disappeared with an impa.s.sive nod, "Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern, Miss Aria."

Shortly after, Aria released her hand and watched them leave together. Her expression could not help but wrinkle her brows, feeling something was wrong.

Princess Faelyn did not seem like her usual self. Did something happened?
