Chapter 395: Meeting The City Lord Again
....
Meanwhile, in a wide and expansive mansion located in the most affluent parts of the city of RiverBloom, an old man was sitting on an opulent chair with many servants by his side.
"Have we ascertained the intentions of that ridiculously powerful dragon suspended above our City?"
An old and antiquated voice sounded out as Eldric Ironhand, the City Lord of RiverBloom, was looking toward his head butler, expecting an answer.
THUD!
The head butler fell to the ground before his voice came out in a shaky tone as he said, "I'm sorry, My Lord! But we have been unable to understand the intentions of the organism floating above our City!
The only thing we have figured out is that the dragon is likely to be in the Unity Form Synthesis Realm"
The head butler's voice became a little tremulous as he recalled the energy reader shattering upon scanning the beast above.
Something like that occurring either meant that the energy reader was broken or that the energy level of the target had already surpassed the Half-Step Unity Form Synthesis Realm.
And the head butler knew that the first option was far less likely than the second option being the case
"..."
The City Lord turned his gaze from the kneeling head butler before he said, "It looks like our time has finally come."
His eyes seemed to contain various complex emotions as he looked out the square window of the room he was in.
After a few seconds passed, his voice once again sounded as he said, "Go and see your loved ones and say your farewells, for this will be our last stand"
"..." "..." "..."
The head butler and the other servants understood the meaning behind his words as they wore distraught expressions.
And just as they were about to follow their City Lord's 'instuctions', a deep and raspy voice suddenly echoed out
"Why are you guys thinking about death so soon? You shouldn't jump to conclusions so easily."
"!!!" "!!!" "!!!"
The City Lord and the servants swiveled their heads in the direction of the voice, and what they saw was a tall man with two horns, a demon's tail, and a fox mask on.
"You demon! How did you get past the guards!?" The head butler hollered.
The rest of the servants had similar reactions, as they were prepared to fight the intruder if need be!
However, there was one figure amidst them who had a different response to this mysterious figure's appearance
"Is that you, Azmond?" Eldric asked with a look of disbelief.
Azmond focused his gaze on the City Lord before he replied, "Of course it is, old dude. I told you that I'd come back with that 'miracle drug', did I not?"
After his words echoed out, he extended a hand in his pocket and took out a bottle filled with an unknown, glowing substance.
*Toss*
He threw the bottle in the direction of the City Lord before he said, "According to a woman I know, that should help your wife."
Not only Eldric, but the rest of the servants were completely baffled by the words coming out of this man.
There was only one known cure for the City Lord's wife
So, did he mean to say that he had gone to the Luminous Grounds and acquired the 'cure-all panacea' from that tyrant of a catkin woman??
Nonetheless, in spite of this unbelievable news, Eldric caught the bottle in his hands before he hurriedly opened the cap.
*Whooshp~*
A rich and heavenly fragrance immediately blasted out of the bottle and hit everyone in the face.
And inside that bottle was a small heart-shaped pill, red and gold in color, with indescribable lines of mysterious energy engraved into the sides of the pill.
"T-This is" The City Lord mumbled as he clenched the bottle in his hands.
*Drip Drip*
Tears streamed down the sides of his cheeks as he collapsed to the ground with a face full of an untold number of emotions.
However, the one that seemed to overwhelm them all was the everlasting happiness he felt at that moment
"City Lord!" All the servants screamed, anxiousness written on their faces.
They turned their gazes toward Azmond before they shouted, "What did you do to our City Lord, you bastard!?"
However, they were soon interrupted by the City Lord himself, as, through tears, he murmured, "Thank you, Azmond You don't know just how much this means to me"
Azmond scratched his cheek a little before he said, "You don't need to get all sappy on me, old dude. I said I'd get you that 'cure-all' and I don't renege on my promises."
"But still, thank you"
*Sigh* Azmond sighed at this obstinate old man before he asked, "Why don't we go and see if this thing really works or not? And do you mind if I bring a few women with me?"
The City Lord was a little confused over the second question, but he still answered, "Yes, you're right; let's go see Ariana right away. And you can bring whoever you wish."
After saying those words with a strained tone, he got up off the ground and started to head to the entrance of the lavishly decorated red room they were in.
"Alrighty, old dude," Azmond began.
"Well, you heard him, girls. Come on then~," he added with a wily look on his face.
FWIP! FWIP! FWIP!
After his voice sounded out, a few hundred women suddenly phased in out of nowhere.
"???" The City Lord shot his head back in the direction of Azmond, as he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"Are those?" He asked.
"Yes. Some are my lovers, while the others are sort of like friends," Azmond replied with a small smile.
"I see" The City Lord responded.
It wasn't any of his business, so he decided to leave it alone. After all, the young man had done him a favor that he would need a hundred lifetimes to repay!
So if he wished to associate himself with hundreds of vixens, then so be it!
