For The Glory Of Sitia Empire - Chapter 91

After exiting the magic tower, Lennox’s face looked like a grim reaper. Even without his pheromones, just by looking at his fierce expression, no one would want to stand in his way. Thus, everyone on the street scattered away.

Originally, Everly wanted to return by the carriage, but Lennox bolted in a random direction the moment they exited the building. Everly called for him as she tried to catch up with his fast pace, but Lennox’s mind was totally out of this world.

‘ Fuck! They just had to bring MY black history!!! That stupid father is causing me troubles even in his grave! ‘

Flashbacks kept storming in his mind. Although these memories were precious to him, they still caused him intense pain. The pain of being defeated, the pain of being helpless in front of God’s will.

The warmth he desired for so long, yet it faded before he could feel it. The face he secretly imagined tens of thousands of times in his dark shell, was already lifeless when he saw it. Only the stupid and cheerful voice lingered in his head like ringing bells–

” LENNOX!! ”

Everly roughly yanked Lennox’s arm, making him drop the parasol in the process. Sunrays fell on the faint bluish skin, sizzling sounds and vapour araised from Lennox’s exposed skin.

-tsssssss

The pain of being roasted alive pulled him back to his senses. Lennox quickly grabbed the falling parasol and held it above his head. Luckily, he was still wearing the sunglasses, otherwise, if the sunrays reached his eyes it would be disastrous.

He sighed then turned towards Everly, who had a terrified expression on her face. Unexpectedly, Lennox was calm, even the rage from before faded.

” Lennox– I, I didn’t– I just ”

Everly’s eyelids turned completely red, but she was too shocked to shed a tear, her pupils shrank into a dot and her hands trembled. Naturally, Lennox paid attention to these details, he said slowly.

” it’s okay, calm down first ”

” No, b, but I hurt Lennox ”

” An external injury, nothing serious ”

He patted Everly on the head, then grabbed her hand that was hesitating whether to let go of his sleeve or not. Saying with his usual emotionless and indifferent tone.

” Forget it. You said you would take me to the black market. Since we will be leaving tomorrow morning, it’s better to finish shopping early today ”

Everly silently hung her head down and nodded. She was scared witless, thinking that Lennox would be raged. Since she was always roaming around him, Everly is already familiar with the way treats those who he doesn’t like. cold and frightening. Yet, a moment ago, she almost killed him! His brain must be full of shit if still likes her after that!!

In her eyes, Lennox was a star that she looked up to. He was what Everly wished to become, strong, independent, capable and most importantly, powerful. If she was like him, wouldn’t her master still be here?

It was because of her helplessness that her master found an opportunity to throw his life. If she was powerful enough to fight that dead mana beast, then her master wouldn’t have exhausted the little amount of mana within him.

Blaming herself for something utterly unrelated to her ability. In fact, even if her master hadn’t fought with the dead mana beast, he would still have returned to his original form sooner or later…

The two walked towards the south of the village, the further they walked the weirder the shops became. None of them said anything along the way until a sign of ” Guang Street ” appeared in front of them.

” Why is it so crowded?? ”

Lennox commented as he scanned the suspicious-looking people buying suspicious things from other suspicious-looking people. Many different races were mixed within the crowd, thus, the two kids didn’t really stand out.

” Oh, it’s not that much. You should see how bustling the street is after the sun sets ”

Everly seemed to have calmed down and returned to be energetic, so Lennox went along with her. They passed by a few shops before stopping at a small one.

” Ancient bones? Show me what you got ”

The middle-aged woman smiled with wrinkles showing at the corner of her eyes. She said in a pleasant tone.

” oh my! The young master has such a keen eye. In the entire village, you won’t find anyone who sells such high-quality products ”

Lennox swept a glance over the table, pondered for a moment then said:” give me the water demon skull and a poisoned dark Elf’s nails. Better if it’s over 200 years ”

Everly:”…..”

‘ WHY ARE ARE BUYING DEAD BONES?!!!! NO- WHY WOULD ANYONE SELL DEAD BONES???? ‘

” young master~ these items are a bit expensive, can the young master afford them? ”

” I asked for it, naturally I can afford ”

As he said that, Lennox pulled a card from his waist bag and put it on the table, instantly turning to a white mana crystal. Seeing that, the woman excitedly clapped her hands and quickly packed the bones Lennox ordered.

After receiving his bones, Lennox and Everly resumed their walk.

” nasty Lennox, why did you buy nasty bones? ”

Lennox cast her a sideway glance, faked a serious face and said solemnly.

” To make bone soup ”

” …..”

Forgotten details corner:

Forest Elves are worshipers of the sun. Their golden hair, that is warm in winter and shines in the darkness, is a sign of the sun God’s blessings. Lennox is sensitive towards the sunrays, naturally, would be affected by them. Although the effect is not serious, it’s still bothersome.

There are three branches of Elves, forest Elves, dark Elves and ice Elves. All three clans are very similar yet very different at the same time.

For example, all Elves’ clans practice the same magic formula which requires them to make a contract with an elemental spirit. Also, all the three of them worships different God. Forest Elves worship the sun, dark Elves worship the moon and ice Elves worship the stars.
