Whoosh… The White Tiger King inhaled deeply as he watched General Grunt leave with his people then he scurried over to the back of the stone castle. Darryl was there. Leia and a few demons helped him into a stone chamber. Then, she instructed the demons to leave and said to Darryl respectfully, "Your Excellency, please give your orders whenever you need anything."
Okay! Darryl thought and said, "Pluck me some herbs. I saw there were plenty nearby. It shouldn't be hard to find." Then, he said the names of a few herbs.
Though he broke his leg, he was never flustered. With his superb medicinal knowledge and elixir attainments, he only needed some herbs and he would recover very soon.
"Okay!" Leia memorized the names of the herbs and hurried away.
Squeak! After Leia left, there was a sound of the door of the stone chamber being pushed open. Then, a slim figure entered the room. A pair of bright eyes blinked with a hint of cunningness and mischief. It was Mona.
'What is this girl here?' Darryl was startled to see her.
"Hey!" Mona walked up and appraised Darryl. "Are you really Darryl?" She asked in disbelief.
Darryl grinned. "You saw the way your father treated me. Who else do you think could get him on his knees?"
'That's true.' Mona nodded in realization and she looked at Darryl excitedly after recalling something. "I heard my father say, when they were in captive, you've gotten the Power of Bird Ancestor from the Red Sparrow Queen. Is that true?"
"Of course it is." Darryl nodded.
'Great.' Mona said excitedly and she looked at Darryl with expectancy. "I heard the Power of Bird Ancestor is super peculiar. It can be separated from the body and agglomerate into a fire bead. Can you show me?"
