Niya sat at the pond with a concerned look. She looked so upset. Suzanna found the water in the pond had already been polluted, which meant that they could not take a bath in the pond anymore. Suzanna tested the water in the pond with the horn they cut off the unicorn. It could purify the water poured into the horn, but could not purify the whole pond water. Purifying the water in the horn to shower was far from enough. The unicorn horn was dead, so its power was not parable to when the unicorn was still alive.
Niya tried to stop Anfey from dipping the little guy’s mini unicorn into the pond, but Anfey ignored the plaining from her and the little guy and did it anyway. He waited for a while, but the water quality did not change at all.
The little guy whined and looked up at Anfey with his blue eyes filled with tears. It wished that Anfey could make up for his rudeness. Unfortunately, Anfey’s mind had flown somewhere else. Anfey did not care whether the water in the pond was poisonous. With a group of mages present, drinking water was not a problem, since there were plenty of water elements in the air, and even more water elements in the forest. Anfey never worried about that.
"Suzanna, can you e with me for a second?" Anfey stood up.
"Huh…" Suzanna was momentarily shocked. She hesitated a little bit before she followed Anfey, about 40 feet behind.
The little guy saw Anfey leaving and jumped to follow Anfey. It already had forgotten about its plaints. Senior magic beasts were rated as senior level for a reason. It only took the little unicorn two hours at the most to learn to run after it just learned how to walk. The problem with the little unicorn was its vision. He had tripped at the place where he should not, and then he would slide for a little bit before he fell heavily on the ground.
Suzanna felt unreasonably nervous when she saw Anfey walking straight ahead to the forest. In fact, from any outsider’s perspective, her nervousness was unnecessary. If Anfey and Suzanna wanted to have a fair fight, there was no way Anfey could beat Suzanna. There was no reason for Suzanna to be nervous.
"Anfey, let’s talk here." Suzanna suddenly stopped. Her frequent eye movements showed she was thinking. She pinched the bark here and there on a tree. That poor tree seemed to suffer an unexpected natural disaster when a large piece of bark fell off in a very short period of time.
"Huh? Sure." Anfey nodded and looked at Suzanna with a weird look.
"What is the matter?" Suzanna asked.
"Suzanna, do you feel someone has been watching us?" Anfey asked.
"No, Why? Do you think someone has been watching us?" Suzanna looked up in surprise.
"I was only guessing. I hope I was just thinking too much, but…" Anfey paused for a second. "Suzanna, can you walk around a little more when you have time. Maybe you can find something."
"I got it. That night…" Suzanna blushed before she even finished her sentence. She remembered what Anfey had told her after he caught her, but she could not say out loud that she had understood what he meant that night. Suzanna felt so ashamed and wished there was a hole in the ground where she could hide from Anfey.
A wave of magic surges appeared in the air. The little unicorn felt it before Anfey and Suzanna. The little guy suddenly turned its head to the side and barked in a low pitch. The mini horn on its head pointed to the sky. Anfey looked quickly at Suzanna and walked slowly out of the forest. Suzanna followed Anfey about 40 feet behind.
Christian and the other two landed. Christian did not look too bad, but Blavi looked awkward, with mud and rotten leaves on him. Luckily there was no blood on him.
"What happened?" Anfey asked worriedly.
"S*^t! That manticore cave was occupied by a group of wyverns. We almost got caught," Blavi blurted out with fury.
"Wyverns?" Anfey asked.
"Now I understand why I saw a pair of wyverns outside the manticore’s cave. I could not figure out the reason back then, but I see it now. They were trying to take that territory," Suzanna said, showing in her eyes the enlightenment which had e to her.
"Didn’t you say there have rarely been any conflicts among senior magic beats?" Anfey asked.
"Anfey, have you ever seen a wyvern?
