Chapter 519 - Into The Thunderclouds

Boom!

The skies crackled loudly with thunder and grew more potent by the moment like it was gathering strength for a big thunderstorm!

With so much heat and smoke dumped into the atmosphere, chances of a thundercloud forming were to be expected.

"Leon!" Faelyn called out after seeing Leon flying over to her.

Leon nodded to her before looking at the backline tribesmen that were still quite some distance from the Great Wall.

"We need to urge the tribesmen to pick up the pace. The surrounding fires are already on their last legs. If it rains, the tribesmen will be in trouble!" Leon stated.

The rat walls had been burning for an entire night, thanks to everyone feeding more fuel into the fire. However, it would not last much longer before they are snuffed out.

"Right! I notified the tribe right away!" Faelyn nodded heavily with solemnity, understanding the severity of the situation.

Rain is not always accompanied by thunder, but thunder is always accompanied by rain. No matter how much water is stored in the clouds, it would only take a little sprinkle to snuff out the flames!

"Everyone, please increase your pace! The Great Wall is just within sight! I know you are all tired, but we only need to push a little bit further!" Faelyn spoke with urgency.

Although her voice was not harsh and loud, it was clear and well-articulated, reaching the ears of her tribesmen.

Shortly after, panic spread within the crowd.

Although Faelyn did not mention it, the tribesmen could all guess the situation from looking up at the looming thunderclouds in the skies.

"Let's go, everyone! Just a bit further! We can do it!" A male elf tried inspiring his fellow tribesmen to strive harder despite the exhaustion they were feeling from the long travels.

"Right, it's just a little bit of distance to go. Don't make Her Highness worry about us, everyone!" Another male elf spoke despite the nervousness in their heart.

Even though there was panic in the crowd, no one had the energy to rush ahead of the others and gain a lead in reaching safety first.

On the Great Wall, General Marquis Hendrick gazed at the thunderclouds with a deep frown.

The rain would not just put the elves traveling on the plains in danger; the Great Wall would also face the threat of the rat tide.

"Go call Duke Ignis over from the workshop," General Marquis Hendrick ordered a nearby soldier.

"Yes, sir!"

Shortly after, Duke Ignis was brought over before General Marquis Hendrick stated, "We have a problem on a hand."

"What seems to be the prob—oh." Duke Ignis paused on the rumbling thunderclouds in the sky. "Oh, that does look like trouble."

"Any solution?"

"Nope!" Duke Ignis said.

General Hendrick Marquis looked at him with doubt. How can Duke Ignis give him such an answer without any looks of concern?

"My son-in-law will figure something out." Duke Ignis shortly said with a beaming smile, causing General Hendrick Marquis to look at him speechlessly.

The Duke's daughter was not even married to the Crown Prince yet.

"How is your daughter, anyway? I have not heard much about her with the prince. On the other hand, the prince's harem seems to grow bigger each day. It seems they aren't all that fated to be together." General Hendrick Marquis said.

"Haiz…" Duke Ignis sighed with concern after General Marquis Hendrick brought up the matter. "I'm also not sure what my daughter is thinking, but she is very immersed in cultivation these days. I'm sure the two children have some feelings for each other. Perhaps, I need to consult my wife about stepping in and giving them a push…"

Shortly after, Duke Ignis shook his head and said, "Never mind. Let us not talk about this matter. We have the situation in front of us to worry about it."

"Right…" General Marquis Hendrick said with a soft sigh.

He also had his own son to worry.

Ever since he returned to the Western Frontier with his son, the person had been sitting in a daze every day. Evidently, Rowan was smitten by the elven princess and daydreams about her every day.

General Marquis Hendrick had no idea how to resolve this.

"Haiz…"

Meanwhile, everyone out hunting in the vast plains swarming with rats began to return to the traveling group after realizing the weather condition.

The royal guards, the High Elves, the Elders, The Supreme Elder, and Princess Thessalia were shortly seen returning from different directions.

Shortly after, the airship was also seen in the distance.

However, it did not come closer within a certain distance from the Great Wall to continue attracting the rats to kill each other.

A white figure could be seen flying over on her ice-lightning sword before leaping off and diving onto Leon's back while he was considering a solution.

"What are you thinking about?" Aria asked curiously, not at all concerned about the current weather in the area.

"A solution to the current thundercloud problem," Leon spoke with a contemplating look while looking at the thunderclouds in the sky.

The thunderclouds are brimming with lightning essence. It was evidently an excellent place for Lightning Awakeners to train and replenish their energy reserves.

"Do you have a solution yet? If not, we can try mine."

"Oh? I do have one, but let's hear it." Leon said with a smile.

Aria nodded before she explained, "I am an Ice-Lightning Transcendent. As long as I get close to the thunderclouds, I can absorb all the Water Essence before it rains."

"What a coincidence. I was thinking the same. Of course, I cannot compare to you when it comes to absorbing the power of lightning and water." Leon smiled before he said, "Let us go together."

Aria was surprised before a sweet smile hung on her face. It was a pleasant feeling, knowing that their thoughts were in sync.

"I borrowed this from the airship captain earlier." Aria took the modified pendant device from her storage space.

Leon's eyes quickly flickered with surprise before he said, "So you came prepared."

"Un." Aria nodded with a small blush on her face.

Shortly after separating the modified pendant device into two pendant devices, Leon and Aria shot up into the thunderclouds above together.
