Rogart seemed relaxed on the surface, but he was a little nervous on the inside. It would be embarrassing if Jewel refused his request.
Jewel shook her head quickly and replied, "No, but I need to think about it."
She thought of Sheryl when she replied. It would be so much better if Sheryl was by her side to advise her. Unfortunately, Sheryl had gone back to The Legendary Island of Dragons to report back to Shandy while Jewel cultivated in seclusion in the Carter family home.
When she finally made up her mind, she said to Rogart, “Your Excellency, give me two days to think about it. After I’ve made up my mind, I’ll find you at the Heavenly Alliance. How about that?"
Initially, Rogart was a little worried. However, a smile spread on his face immediately after he heard Jewel. "Alright. I shall be waiting for you at the Heavenly Alliance."
Then, he signaled to Cayden and the others to leave with him.
As soon as Rogart left, Dax looked upset. "Are you really going to take Rogart to the dragon clan?"
Jewel shook her head and gazed in the direction Rogart and his men had left. Then, she mumbled, "I can't be sure because my sister told me that we shouldn’t reveal the location of The Legendary Island of Dragons to others. That's why I didn't agree right away. Let's go back first. I’ll get Sheryl’s opinion once she’s back."
Then, she had a look at Dax’s injuries and was relieved to see Dax was just suffering from the impact of his multiple falls. Then, Jewel, Ambrose, and Dax left Jade Peak and returned to the Carter family mansion.
…
Meanwhile, Rogart, Cayden and the others had gone back to the Heavenly Alliance Altar. Along the way, Cayden was ruminating about what had happened. He was curious as to why Rogart was so polite to Jewel.
