Chapter 895  First Layer (Part 2)

"Let me know when you decide to send your subordinates to the Dark Forest to look for the entrance of the secret realm," Alaric said as he passed the Enlightenment Stone to Leopold.

Leopold took the Enlightenment Stone from Alaric and gave him a storage ring with a painful look on his face.

"You are really a greedy bastard," Leopold said in a hateful voice as he watched Alaric put away the storage ring he gave him.

"Thanks for the compliment," Alaric said with a proud smile on his face, barely holding back his laughter.

"By the way, did something happen earlier?" Leopold suddenly asked while rubbing his temples as he was feeling a slight headache.

"What are you talking about?" Alaric asked with a confused look on his face.

Leopold didn't say anything and looked at Dark Star, who was standing behind him.

When Dark Star felt Leopold's gaze, he shook his head, indicating that nothing happened.

'Am I overthinking?' Leopold thought and sighed, attributing his headache to losing one hundred and ten million high-level essence stones.

He looked sideways and saw the red-haired woman who Alaric said was the subordinate of his govern sitting near the pond.

When Leopold saw the red-haired woman, for some reason, his face turned pale and he felt an instinctive fear towards her.

"Leopold,"

"Huh?" Leopold came back to his senses and looked at Alaric, who was staring at him with a frown on his face.

"What's wrong?" The fox asked with a concerned look on his face. "Your entire body is shaking?"

Leopold took some deep breaths and shook his head.

"Nothing, I am fine," He said and stood up. "I will be going back now."

For some reason, Leopold didn't want to stay in Alaric's hidden realm anymore. He felt as if this place was very unlucky for him, and if he stayed here any longer, his life would be in grave danger.

"You are going back?" Alaric asked in a surprised voice. "Why don't you stay for a few days? It's been a while since we met, let's have a big party tonight."

Leopold shook his head hearing Alaric. "Thanks for the offer, Alaric, but I want to solve the problem regarding those two thieves as soon as possible, so maybe next time."

"Is that so..." Alaric sighed and looked quite disappointed, but he still nodded his head and looked behind him.

"Haruto, please escort them."

"Yes, Father!"

Alaric was a little surprised when he heard Haruto's loud response, as he felt this guy was too excited to escort them out.

'Don't tell me he was disappointed that we ignored him during the entire conversation and now he is excited because I finally asked him to do something...' Alaric thought and felt bad that he completely forgot about this little fox.

"Haruto, after escorting them, go to the central area and water my plants."

Haruto, who was about to escort Leopold outside stopped and looked back at Alaric with teary eyes.

"Yes, Father," He said in an emotional voice and was happy that he wasn't forgotten and finally had something to do.

Alaric nodded his head with a gentle smile and said in an encouraging voice.

"Go, my son, water the plants in the Central Area and make a name for yourself in this world."

"Yes, Father! I won't disappoint you!" Haruto shouted in a serious voice and quickly moved towards the exit of the secret realm. He wanted to escort Leopold outside as soon as possible so that he could water the plants and make a name for himself so that he wouldn't be forgotten by his father in the future.

Anastasia, Leopold, and Dark Star looked at the father and son's conversation with dry looks on their faces and decided not to say anything.

Leopold glanced towards Anastasia one last time before he followed the enthusiastic Haruto and soon left the hidden realm.

"Phew!" The moment Leopold left the hidden realm, Alaric sighed in relief and was glad that their plan worked and the vampire didn't realize anything.

He looked at Anastasia and wanted to tell her that she was too impulsive, but before he could say anything, a black triangular-shaped structure covered Anastasia.

"I am going to sleep for a bit."

He heard Anastasia's voice and found that even with his powerful spiritual senses, he couldn't see inside the triangular-shaped structure.

"This stupid woman is as impulsive as ever. Using that kind of technique on a Rank Five Core Evolver when she doesn't even have her full power..." He said in a low voice and sighed while looking at the sky.

"Damn it, why do I feel like I suddenly became the father of a problem child..." Alaric grumbled in a low voice... "Though, the problem child is not a child at all and is as old as the world itself."

"You foxy bastard, you are speaking something rude about me, right?"

Alaric suddenly heard a cold voice and he started to sweat.

"What are you talking about, you damn woman, just sleep already. I don't want you to die here and release that sleeping Armageddon."

Alaric heard light laughter from inside the triangular-shaped structure and soon silence descended inside the hidden realm.

"Since she can laugh like this, she should be fine..." Alaric muttered and his body slowly started to fade from the secret realm.

"While she is recovering, I should make some preparations for the vampires who will come here in the future to search for the entrance of the secret realm."

Inside the Tomb of The Ancient...

Evan sat atop Biscuit with his eyes closed as it flew towards the first layer at a rapid speed.

Screech!

Suddenly, Biscuit screeched loudly, forcing Evan to open his eyes.

When Evan opened his eyes and looked in front of him, he saw the gloomy clouds of the second layer started to disappear and something else started to appear in front of his vision.

At first, the scenery in front of him was quite vague as his vision was obstructed by a strange mist.

But soon, the mist in the area disappeared and his vision cleared.

The moment his vision cleared and Evan saw what was in front of him, his eyes opened wide in shock.

"What in the name of seven hells is this thing?"
