The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1394: Dove Island

After an hour of driving and being stuck in traffic, they finally arrived at the train station, after booking their tickets Lory and Fargo immediately boarded the train.

Fargo had thoughtfully booked first-class tickets because he knew the journey would take hours, and they could use this time to rest and save their energy.

In first class passengers are given a fairly spacious private cabin with two large seats facing each other separated by a table large enough for them to dine on, for starter there already a macaroons cake and lemon tea serves on the table for Lory.

A few moments later, the flight attendant knocked on the cabin door. Fargo pressed the automatic button beside him, and the cabin door opened automatically.

A second later a woman in a beautiful blue uniform came with a tray filled with two beautifully decorated cake that being said as complementary dish for them after that she asked what drinks they wanted and after the wstewardess served the drinks she give smiled politely and then excused herself.

"The service of this train is a top-notch!" Lory praised while enjoying the cake heartily.

"If you knew the price of the ticket you would realize this kind of service is to be expected" Fargo slowly twist his glass and the sound of ice cubes hitting the glass was faintly heard.

Lory didn’t comment, she was too busy enjoying her cake while Fargo browsed his cell phone to check if there was any big news today. Suddenly his fingers stop ,then he shows his cell phone to Lory "Hey, check this out, they said there would be a big festival held in Wellington to honor the Saintess"

Lory glanced at Fargo’s phone before continuing enjoying her cake because right now the cake was far more interesting than the news about the Saintess. After she finished, Lory wiped her mouth then took the teacup and slowly sipped the hot lemon not long after Lory let out a long sigh of satisfaction.

Only then did Lory turn her gaze to Fargo, "What a coincidence, although I don’t know if this is good for us or not."

"Yes, the security around the city will be tight, but only on that day will Elysium be open to the public for two hours. I think Uncle Stephan was waiting for this opportunity," Fargo conclude.

"Do you think Uncle Stephan wants to sneak into Elysium?" Lory frowned worriedly.

Fargo shrugged. "I can’t think of any other reason he would come to Wellington, he even brought that girl with her."

Lory then said, "I heard Dolza’s government conficated some Serena worked. Did she think her work was stored in Elysium?"

"If it concerns the S.A.I.N.T. organization then it is not strange that the documents are kept by the organization, besides the one who controls Dolza right now is not the president but Alexander Behrenn" Fargo said in mocking tone.

Lory lean her back on the chair "I don’t understand how Alexander Behrenn’s power increased so much after te war, I know in the past he does have great influence in his country but never this strong" Lory ponder.

Fargo raised his glass and sneer "I give you a simple explanation, Theodore Navaro."

Lory shakes her head with a mix of confusion and anxiety. "I never thought these two people would work together one day."

"There is nothing strange, ’the enemy of my enemy is my friend’, and for a long time their common enemy is the Lucient family, however the Lucient family is too strong so they decide to work together...at least for now" freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"We really need Lucas more than ever, don’t we? Even though I’m here, my absence after the war could be used to question my legitimacy, if not the reason why I disappeared for so long which meant bringing all the unnecessary issues about Lazarus, and the other world to the public which only added to the chaos, Therefore only Lucas has the right and justification against our enemies and no one would doubt him"

"Aku pikir suamimu juga tahu itu, itu sebabnya dia melakukan segala cara untuk membantu Luc. needless to say, helping him - helping you" Fargo sip his drink.

A few hours later Lory was woken up by Fargo when they had arrived at the Victory of Oxville train station. Lory slung her backpack over her then pulled her hoodie then put on sunglasses to cover her face after that she got off the train with Fargo who had changed his appearance with Versipell potion.

Now his manly face changed a little softer with a pair of hooded eyes that make him even more like a frivolous man. It seem someone get into the character very quickly as many girls start giving him a coy look and giggles attheir friend while Fargo wink and grin, enjoying his time.

Lory roll her eyes at how easy Fargo emerge in his not so different with his true character. Lory stops a taxi, then pulls Fargo into the car before some girls come to ask his number. It only took forty minutes to reach the Westfort airport.

Luckily they didn’t bring any suitcases other than backpacks so they could go straight to the boarding gate but suddenly she saw a group of young people wearing white t-shirts with the words; ’The Saintess is my Goddess’ some were wearing t-shirts with the words ’The saintess is my new light’, they also were the same hats with big red love emoticons with the words Saintess in the middle.

The group of young people looked very excited, half running towards the plane entrance, it seemed they wanted to visit Wellington for the upcoming festival.

Lory watched the group of young people then heard Fargo snort in annoyance "Most young people in our country don’t like the Saintess but there are always exceptions in every case" Fargo wondered why they had to cross paths with this annoying group.

On the other hands, lory was not affected too much, "It’s okay, everyone is free to express their feelings."

Even though she’s a little surprised by the presence of Saintess supporters from her country but Lory didn’t blame them, considering how the S.A.I.N.T. organization worked tirelessly to increase the Saintess’ popularity, this kind of result was to be expected, however Fargo’s mood has turn foul after stumble to this obnoxious group.

Lory saw his glommy place punch his arm playfully "Come on, if you keep scrunch up your face like you gonna look like Fred"

"Hey!"

Elsewhere, Zhao Li Xin rode a speedboat for the first time. The boat bounced violently as it was hit by the strong winds and rolling waves. Fortunately, Leon had equipped the boat with strengthening magic to enhance its durability and shockproofing to make their journey more or less bearable.

"Hey, look, that’s Dove Island!" Leon pointed to an island covered in lush green trees, in aglance it’s a beautiful island surounded with white beach and crystal blue sea.

Soon, they heard a deafening shriek from a distance. Leon’s expression became war.y "Draw your sword, they’re coming!" he warned Zhao Li Xin while increasing the boat’s speed.

From under the water, something shot fast like a bullet chasing the speeding speedboat. Zhao Li Xin calmly drew his sword a few moments later a creature with a human-like face but had rows of black teeth and sunken eyes jumped from the sea but before the creature had time to swing its long and sharp nails the creature’s head was neatly cut off by Zhao Li Xin’s sword.

However, it didn’t end there, more creatures jumped out of the sea from all directions towards the speedboat. Leon was about to draw his broad sword when suddenly the heads of the creatures fly before his eyes, one by one the monsters were sliced ​​into pieces and their remains fell into the sea turning the blue water into a deep red.

Zhao Li Xin moved gracefully like a crane, yet sharp like an eagle, given no chance for the creatures to graze their long, curly claws on the boats.

Leon was amazed at how ease and precise Zhao Li Xin’s attatck for every strikes he make was calculated, clean and straight to the enemies vital points.

Leon had no doubt that Zhao Li Xin was not only strong but also seasoned hunters, though he was curious about how Zhao Li Xin would act when facing humans, would he be this merciless and direct, because after all killing beasts and humans was very different.

"Keep going Sir, we’re almost there!"

Because the speedboat was already closest to the shore, its speed did not decrease, instead, it increased to full speed. Zhao Li Xin glanced at Leon, not knowing what he was going to do, but she believed in him, no matter what happened, he would be able to protect himself.

"Hang on something, sir!" Leon grin excitedly.

Leon clapped his hands together and shouted, "Expulsion!"

Suddenly, the sea level rose, and a large rock emerged from the sea. Leon pushed the boat with all his might and the boat slide from the rock and shot into the air for a long moment before landed on the shore with a loud bang causing both Leon and Zhao Li Xin were thrown out of the boat.

Leon did a somersault in the air and landed on one knee, while Zhao Li Xin landed smoothly without making a sound. Zhao Li Xin turned his head to the sea where the beast made a high pitch shriek while jumping like angry fish.

"Siren is known to be vindictive beasts, they will try to hunt us as long as we are on the island," Leon speak in a casual tone.

"They can get to the shore?" Zhao Li Xin surprise.

Leon nodded then explained "Only at night, and they are good at creating illusions, their fish tails can turn into legs so they can walk on land and equipped with illusion magic they can change their appearance into beautiful women, that’s why we put a barrier around dove island so they don’t approach the white pearl beach"

"Why not kill all of them?" Zhao Li Xin thought it would be more efficient.

Leon smile and Zhao li xin straightforwatd comment, "That’s what everyone says, but Sirens are part of the marine ecosystem, even though they are territorial and ferocious creatures, the Sirens have a use, namely maintaining coral reefs, who knew their feces were important nutrients for the fertility of coral reefs and coral reefs are very important for the sea, one of which is being a place for fish to live, as a result helping the fishermen around here not to mention attracting tourists, to the point of making the economy of this small town grow rapidly, therefore the King decided to control the population of Sirens and create a barrier so that these creatures do not approach the White Pearl beach area"

"Benevolent and wise King..." Zhao Li Xin said.

Leon’s smile profoundly. "More than we deserve, if I may say"

Zhao Li Xin cast his eyes to the ocean, he sheated his sword then shift his eyes to the island, "Shall we go now?"

The sound of seagulls filled the sky as they flew away from the island as if they were spook by something.

Leon sheathed his sword on his back, his eyes stared at the dense junggle warrily, "Be prepared, there will be more dangerous creatures on the island than just a mere Sirens" Leon warned.
