Chapter 90: Chapter 90. Hundreds of Armours and The White Forest II

Dragon King's Harem Chapter 90. Hundreds of Armours and The White Forest II

After I observed it for a while, I put that armour into my inventory.
"Let's continue." I kicked my Yegaun's side again and we moved forward. Even though this Mana Barrier was quite strong, it didn't mean we could relax around here. Like Eir's previous words, extreme weather had hit this area, it meant it could happen again at any time. Besides, the cape's crest looked foreign to me. Besides each kingdom and nobles had a different crest. Each guild also had a different crest. There were thousands of them scattered in Draconis. Whether it was a merchant, hunter or adventure guild.

Although it was dangerous, luckily our journey went smoothly. It only took us half an hour to get to the sculptures.

"Haaaa!!! We finally arrived." Jyne breathed a sigh of relief as soon as our mounts were on the sculptures' palms. Although it was clear that it was made of ice, their surface was not slippery and not as cold as the snow. Moreover, we could feel a dense flow of Mana from that place.

"We'll take a rest for a while and grab our lunch here," I said. My hand pulled the reins to stop my mount and got off. So are the others.

As they prepared our lunch, I walked towards the icy short altar with engraved magic formation glowed in blue. The only thing in that place. My steps stopped in front of it and my hand touched the magic formation. An announcement appeared before me.

[New essence detected!]
[Ice sacred place's essence]
[Do you want to extract it?]
[Yes] [No]

'Yes.'

A similar magic formation appeared under my feet and it also glowed in blue just like the formation in front of me.

[Essence Absorption initiated ...]

The formation let out cold air that swirled around my body. Within seconds, the cold air turned into flakes of ice that surrounded me. Then my body absorbed it. Different from when I was at Pyro Temple, my body temperature dropped, but rather than cold, I felt a nice cold sensation.

As the flakes of ice disappeared, an announcement appeared in front of me.

[Congratulations! You have acquired a new skill: Freeze!]
[Freeze (Requires 5 Mana) - Releases a stream of frigid ice at a single target to inflict Ice element magic damage. It has a chance of leaving the target frozen (chance is determined by level). 100% chance of success on inanimate objects.]

'Sweet.' I grinned as I pulled my hand. The formation dimmed. I turned around and went over to the others. They were busy with their tasks. Evelina checked our mounts to ensure their health. Eir took the food out of our saddlebags and put some of it for our Yegauns. And Jyne spread out a blanket for us to sit on. Even though the sculptures weren't as cold as snow, that didn't mean it wasn't cold at all.

"Should I warm the bread, sir?" asked Eir as I plopped myself on the blanket.

"We better don't use our Fire skills. It can disturb this place's Mana flow," I replied. Well, warm bread did sound much better than cold bread. But what could I do? Although Mana flow instability was a rare case, I didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

"I understand." After that Eir sat next to me and opened a leather pouch containing some cold flatbread. Each of us took one and ate it. Our eyes looked around the place. It felt like a gloomy picnic since what we saw was a dull white, even after we passed through this deadly forest.

"I wonder if the Baron's convoy is in the mess right now," said Jyne out of blue amid our small talk.

Spontaneously, we exchanged glances as we held back our laughter. Our hands covered our mouths. Our minds immediately pictured the Lizard Baron and his Knights' panicked faces. Also, their dirty, smelly clothes and anger since they had to walk back to the village. Not to mention, the dangers they had to face since the dirt would invite monsters who had a sharp sense of smell.

Indeed, this was not a good topic to talk about while eating but it was too hilarious. I used slow reaction laxatives, alcohol to decrease the Mad Boars' consciousness and some poison that could disturb their hearing so they couldn't hear their master's whistle. Although that trick didn't bring lethal consequences, losing their mounts and supplies in the middle of nowhere was everyone's nightmare, especially in a place like this. After all, no one travelled without a mount on Igixar. Of course, unless they decided to stay in one place and hide in a cave or something.

"I'm sure that trick is working. He will be furious and use that as the reason to execute me," I said as soon as I could get my voice out. Although that was just my guess, judging by the Baron's temperament, I was pretty sure he would.

"I think we already know who will lose his head," said Eir in a mocking tone. Which was answered by another burst of laughter from all of us.

"By the way, what did you find earlier, sir?" said Eir once our laughter faded down.

"Oh, that armour. I haven't looked into it in detail." I popped the last piece of bread into my mouth before I stretched out my hand with the palm facing up. The armour appeared in my hand. From the material, it was clear that the armour was different from the previous one.

[Name: Metal Alloy Armor]
[Type: Armor]
[A powerful armour is usually used to protect the user. Made of special material.]
[Maker: Skilled Blacksmith]
[Status: Damaged]

But for sure, since they were wearing armour, they shouldn't be from the Dragon Tribe. I showed the cape's crest to the others.
"Do you recognize this symbol?" I asked. I didn't expect them to recognize it, but I hoped I could find a clue.

Their gazes fell on the crest and fell silent. Unfortunately, even though they didn't say anything, from their expressions, I could tell they didn't recognize it.
"It's not an emergency. We can look into this later," I said.

After a while, Eir opened his voice.
"From the crest's features. I think it's a guild's emblem." He pointed at the crest which was just a simple tribal symbol.
"It's too simple for a noble crest. Also too simple for a big guild," he added.

Those words made me turn my gaze to the crest and realize what he said was true.
"You mean they're from a small guild?"

"I guess," said Eir. He wasn't sure about this either.

I was silent for a moment before I put that armour back into my inventory.
"I think we'll have to look into this later. We'll have to be careful for the time being." I was sure something lured them to this place and I didn't know what it was so we had to stay alert until we got out of here.
