WHIT 166 - THE DIRTY WORK
On the evening of the same day.Fabby and others were riding a large gray frog they had recently defeated. Out of the four, only Edgar was sleeping, even though the frog had been jumping on top of the canopy. All four of them were almost healed, at least for outer appearances.“It’s traveling so messily,” Gossini complained. “We should’ve caught a flying beast.”“Flying beasts are harder to control, let alone tame,” said Tenzai. He was the one who dealt the last blow and brought the frog into submission.“But still..” Gossini felt like she was about to vomit.“Haha,” Fabby made the frog stop by scratching on its head. Every time Fabby did that, the frog f
WHIT 167 - THE MYSTERIOUS MERCHANT
At around ten in the night.On top of a giant boulder the size of a small hill, Fabby and others were present.Tenzai was on the lookout. Everyone else was sleeping, including the frog. He, too, was yawning.“You’ve been fighting every beast that came our way,” Gossini said. “Get some rest. I’ll take the shift.”“I thought you were sleeping,” Tenzai was a little surprised.“I tried,” replied Gossini. “But… this rock is still hot.” She glanced at Fabby and Edgar. “It’s surprising how they can sleep on this surface.” Even though she had laid a cushioning carpet on the rock, she could still feel the heat.
WHIT 168 - GONE IS GRAY
Right before dawn.“Finding you wasn’t easy,” Black Broom landed near the waterfall.Numo was sitting cross-legged right under the heavy waterfall. He soon came out of the pool and released drive to quickly dry his clothes. “The man in black… Are you the mysterious merchant who’s been roaming around these woods and selling precious things to disciples these past few days?”“Why do you ask when you already know?” Black Broom smiled faintly. “The young patriarch has asked me to sell goods to those I consider worthy. The Youth Games are nearing, after all.”“Do you have a beast core for me, too?” asked Numo.Black Broom grinned before tossing a wooden
WHIT 169 - GRIPPED BY FEAR
Fabby and others were at the base of a 17,000 meters tall mountain named Sorzy.“This one’s quite big,” said Gossini as she couldn’t even see the top. “We don’t know what kind of monsters are living up there.”“This is one of the biggest ones in these Worry Chains,” Tenzai couldn’t wait to explore. “That’s why we chose it, remember?”“We have three days before the mission’s deadline,” Fabby reminded her team. “If we can find a bird and control it, then we can make it back in time.”“Let’s stick close to one another,” said Edgar, leading the group. “There will be enemies up ahead that we can’t face alone.”
WHIT 170 - TURNING BACK
Before Tenzai’s fist reached the elk, an earthen wall rose between them.“What the—” Tenzai’s whole body banged into the wall, and he crashed down. The elk, on the other hand, rammed its way through the wall, but both its antlers and feet missed Tenzai.Pillars rose out of the ground and randomly smashed the elk from different directions, and when Tenzai looked in Fabby’s direction, she signaled him to abort the mission by making x mark with her fingers.“Tch,” Tenzai didn’t like that, but he listened to her and turned away. “It’s your lucky day, horny beast.”As the elk caused destruction all around, Fabby’s team came down the mountain in the same path they had climbed.
WHIT 171 - HOT EXCHANGE
“Strongest outer disciples of the sect?” Edgar gripped the hilts tightly.“Self-proclaimed…” said Gossini.“What’s that?” Both Edgar and Tenzai looked puzzled as if they never heard of that word.“N-Never mind,” Gossini minded her business by putting her focus on eating carrots.Meanwhile, the Young Twins stole all the rings of the four disciples and were kicking them again. Just then, they saw Fabby and others. Though they initially wondered as to the identity of Gossini and Tenzai because of their lack of uniforms, when their eyes settled on Edgar who was wearing the red uniform, they slightly turned their heads and looked at each other and smiled. Their smiles were quite subtle. After nodding to each other,
WHIT 172 - GUIDANCE
In the evening.Fabby and others reached the southern border of the Redback Zone. They raised a tent to waste the night there. That said, only Tenzai was sleeping. The other three were refining their skills on their own.Edgar was practicing his sword skills in a new way. He was dancing around under the tree and was trying to make the lightning stick to his sword and not release any sort of energy outside. However, it wasn’t easy. It began creeping up onto his arm and started hurting him. When he tried to use extra force to tame it, some of the attacks flew and landed not far away from Gossini.She, on the other hand, was trying to create a small fountain in her hand. She looked to be in better control of her skills compared to Edgar. However, she put her work to a stop and came to Edgar and watched him from a
WHIT 173 - REFINING
At twelve in the night.Edgar was still practicing his sword skills. He kept thrusting the sword, and every time he did so, an electric charge dispersed from the tip of the sword and struck the tree trunk. He wasn’t putting all of his strength into the attack, so it only left a burnt mark on the tree.When he went farther from the tree, it became harder for him to hit with the same thrusting technique, and he kept mission nine out of ten times. After practicing for hundreds of times, Edgar felt frustrated. “It’s getting harder to control lightning the farther it is from me… The only special case is…” he looked up at the sky. There was a lightning spear he stored high up in the sky, near the low clouds. “I don’t know how I did it, but it just happened on a spur…”Latest Chapter
