Chapter 739 Disaster
After several days had passed, the group received the promised potions from the magic people. Rain took charge of the situation, positioning himself as the spokesperson during this critical moment. He was present to convey a decisive message without explicitly stating their stance against the magic people an beast people.
Instead, Rain chose a subtle and strategic approach to express their intentions.
"In the name of our queen's honor, the humans wouldn't do anything against the magic and beast people for a period of three years," Rain said. "Unless we find any signs that you are plotting to break the truce."
"That will do it," Losar said.
After saying that, Losar and his group turned around and left without any hesitation... once again, they acted suspiciously. Rain and the others could use a bunch of things as excuse to attack them while they fight the dragons, but for some reason, Losar looked confident... it was hard to tell if it was confidence that they wouldn't attack or that they wouldn't find a chance to do so.
"Ah... this is very suspicious," Liss said while furrowing her eyebrows.
"Hey, come on." Asche said and then sighed. "Will things actually end like this?"
Rain found himself perplexed and uneasy due to the impossible of explaining the actions of their enemies. Despite their relentless efforts and strategic maneuvers, the reasoning behind their recent decisions remained a confusing enigma to him.
What puzzled Rain the most was the realization that their enemies were not unintelligent, particularly their leader, who exhibited a shrewd and calculated approach to conflict.
The confusion stemmed from the fact that the recent actions of their foes contradicted logical expectations. Their decisions lacked the typical patterns or motives that Rain could decipher, leaving him with an unsettling sense of uncertainty. He couldn't shake off the feeling that there was a hidden agenda or a larger scheme at play, yet he struggled to discern its nature or purpose.
"I guess that is the same as the world ending for you," Rain shrugged. "I saw him talking with a guy before, but she never introduced him."
"Well, you remember the jokes that you said that the person who had to marry your sisters had to defeat you first, it seems that she is very conscious of that," Roan said. "She doesn't want you seeing him until the day of the marriage."
"Not like I want to, if you vetted him properly, then I have nothing to say," Rain said.
"I don't have anything bad to say about him... but I really don't want to vet him and let my eldest daughter go," Roan said and sighed again.
"Rain, you'd better not act like him in the future," Terra said.
"I won't make any promises," Rain shrugged.
"Speaking of which, Lorene gave birth to healthy girl," Seara said. "It was a difficult delivery, but Lorene pulled off. I guess she had her first child a bit late for a human."
"That is good, maybe we should pay a visit to her when she is feeling better," Rain said.
"Aside from that..." Seara said.
As Seara was in the middle of her sentence, a sudden and powerful tremor jolted through the entirety of their house. The sudden event startled everyone, causing Rain to swiftly leap to the assumption that the magic people had launched an attack. However, amidst the chaos, Rain did not sense any palpable sense of aggression or bloodlust lingering in the air.
Before long, subsequent tremors rocked the surroundings, resonating across the capital and causing several houses to bear visible cracks in their walls. The successive quakes induced a growing sense of alarm and concern among the residents. The ground continued to convulse intermittently, spreading an aura of apprehension and uncertainty throughout the area...
