I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Chapter 134 Back In The Palace

Aurdis tightened her jaw staring at the scene before her eyes.

The prison of fire broke the darkness of the night. But no further than a few meters around it.

Aurdis did that because she didn't want to make her presence stand out even more.

So she made the four magic circles into a cage so that no fire spread out.

Aurdis was lost in the sight of the fire. The light from the flash of fire reflected in her eyes. She barely even blinked at the fire.

Aurdis felt a little sad. Her conscience which could not bear to kill other creatures began to be a burden.

Aurdis knew that she had no other choice. But still, seeing the three Trolls roasted in front of her eyes still made her sad.

Moreover, she knew that the Trolls were not acting as they wished.

They were controlled by some strange creature shaped like a red root.

Aurdis walked towards the piece of red root she threw earlier.

She looked at the red root that had rolled over on the ground and saw that it was twitching.

Aurdis stared while bowing to confirm. Behind her, the fire that burned the Trolls became the background.

'It is true.'

Aurdis' suspicions turned out to be true. The red root does move as if it is alive.

She immediately stretched her arms forward and created something like a transparent silver cage around the root.

Now the root was inside a silver cube-shaped seal.

It's still twitching. Then Aurdis put it in her Magic cloth bag.

When she felt that the entire body of the Troll and the red root had melted into ashes, Aurdis removed her Magic circle of fire.

Now only a pile of black ashes remained. Aurdis let it be and started walking.

Once she knew that the situation was safer, Star came to Aurdis.

Aurdis immediately climbed onto the stallion's back and they continued their journey.

'Something serious has indeed happened. Saeldir's prediction about the bad things that would happen was true. I wouldn't know if I didn't make this journey.'

Aurdis penetrated the dark night and looked for a place to rest.

Although she wasn't really sure if she could rest in peace tonight.

It could be that now something was eyeing her from behind the dark shadows.

Aurdis continued to ride with Star despite the dark and cold night surrounding them.

Of course, Star has also been equipped with that vision magic. So that he could go without any hindrance on this dark and lonely road.

The dark clouds above them grew thicker. Rumblings and flashes of lightning appeared all over the place.

'We have to find a place to rest now.'

The wind that came with a strong gust hit her face. The hood that Aurdis wears opens to the back. Now her silver hair was fluttering back by the wind.

That coming wind must have been the start of a storm.

She felt that her fate now was really unlucky. Twice, Aurdis had been caught in the middle of a storm in the less than two days she had left the palace.

In addition to the storm, disturbances from various creatures of the wild inhabitants also came to her.

This was the toughest journey of her life. Especially now that she was alone.

In the end, Aurdis decided to build a tent on the edge of the forest.

With a heavy heart, Aurdis put up a Ward to protect her tent and Star.

In addition, Aurdis also installed Magic to make the tent invisible.

It started raining. Even this time, the rain immediately fell heavily without starting with small drops first.

It was as if the rainwater couldn't wait to fall.

Aurdis sighed as she lay in her tent. She tried to close her eyes and sleep at least for a while.

Aerchon suddenly came into the room. He didn't even bother to knock on the door.

Saeldir just glanced at him briefly and continued to read his book.

To him, Aerchon's arrival with an angry face was not a surprise.

He knew it would happen. In fact, Saeldir thinks that Aerchon's arrival was slower than he expected.

"(Aurdis went to visit the Forest Elf?!)" Aerchon shouted sharply beside Saeldir.

"(Yes,)" Saeldir answered calmly.

The sound of the books being turned over could be heard clearly.

"(How can you allow that?!)" Aerchon asked.

"(I can't stop her,)" Saeldir said. "(She just left because she felt she had to do everything herself.)"

Aerchon's jaw tightened. "(She didn't even say anything to me. What's the purpose of visiting the Forest Elves? Didn't the King already say that we won't be in touch with them anymore?)"

"(Aurdis left exactly because of that.)"

Hearing Saeldir's words, Aerchon frowned. "(What do you mean?)"

"(She left because we can't contact the Forest Elves anymore. If we could contact them, Aurdis wouldn't have bothered going there herself.)"

"(You know that the King cut ties with the Forest Elves. We really can't contact them anymore for that reason.)" Aerchon said.

"(But why would Aurdis want to talk to them?)" Aerchon asked. He seemed to be holding his temper.

"(We need help dealing with the traitors in the palace,") Saeldir replied while looking at Aerchon.

Aerchon furrowed his brow. Forms expressions that describe confusion and anger.

"(Do you still think that there is a traitor in this palace?)" Aerchon said.

"(Yes,)" Saeldir answered without hesitation.

"(What makes you still think like that?)" Aerchon crossed his arms in front of his chest.

Saeldir tightened his jaw. He considered whether or not he should say that Laston was the traitor.

"(Actually, we got a hint from-)"

Before Saeldir could finish his sentence, Laston had barged into the room.

"(You have disobeyed the King's orders, Saeldir,)" Laston said, then Laston looked at Aerchon. "(He should be punished.)"

Subconsciously, Saeldir's fist clenched tightly as he stared at Laston.

"(We don't have to punish him, Uncle. Let me talk to him first,)" Aerchon said.

Saeldir looked at Laston. At that time, Laston realized that Saeldir had realized something.
