Chapter 269: Return

Also the Adventure Guild do not restrict anyone joining them as long as they follow the rules.

The B and T Association is rapidly growing because of the Sanctuary which is under the jurisdiction of the Adventure Guild.

As of now the monsters that was bought was released into the Sanctuary causing their population to grow and some species were actually evolving naturally inside which is considered somwhat miraculous as monsters rarely evolves.

Of course the reason for this is the rich elements that Hentai continuously gathered and refine in the Sanctuary.

The evolution of the monsters in the Sanctuary is further hastened by the fact that high grade meat such as orcs and griffons were thrown inside.

There is also another reason for the evolution of the monsters in the Sanctuary and that is the Blood Berries scattered all around the place.

While the town is thriving the Dragon City took a big hit on their economy as the war between the orc cut off any trade route.

Besides that the destruction of the city destroyed numerous products and the most worst one of them all is the storage that stores the staple food was set in fire if it weren't for the fact that Shadowslash have created the Sanctuary the Dragon City would go in a point of starvation.

But even if the Sanctuary is a source of food and resources it wasn't enough to provide for all of the residents in the Dragon City.

The high ranking corpses that were scattered around the city were either collected by the nobles or the army leaving nothing behind for the poor commoners.

Because of this there is a large amount of people trying to sell themselves just to earn enough money to feed themselves or their family.

The orphans have eithet starved to death or sold as mere tools upon seeing this situation the people of the Lodging Area thank their ruler Shadowslash for his rules and influence.

The high ranking meats of the griffons were cooked to feed the residents in the town also the armies help in rebuilding the houses and buildings.

The orphans were taken care by the Caretaker Gang and was feed well and because the children were teach how to behave their personality were shaped into one of an honorable one.

The people in the city actually started migrating to the town and the Caretaker Gang took the orphans in the city and brought them to the Lodging Area.

Of course there are some people that became obnoxious when they moved into the Lodging Area but they were easily taken care by the army as most of the soldiers in there were former gang members.

They especially hate people like this and because Shadowslash told them they could beat people like this as mush as they can as long as they don't die made them incredibly happy.

After more than a dozen of cases that people that cause problem were brought into prison and was taught a painful lesson.

Besides the army the adventurers would teach people like this a thing or two as they live their lives on the edge when they hunt they dislike people complaining about their life is harder than anyone else.

Adventurers might be looked down by those that have stable jobs but when they reach B-Rank they would be admire by many people causing the adventurers to strive to improve their strength.

Also there are many missions posted in the Adventure Guild most of them were construction works in the city or the town so the adventurers could accept them after all they are like jack of all trades.

While the Dragon City is suffering decline on their population and trust of their civilians the nobles started to get a bit more arrogant as they started to act like they are the true rulers of the city.

Of course the royal families started to become apprehensive but most of them started to teach the nobles that they are still the rulers but without Dragon King Tristan and the Supreme Dragon Battalion the situation isn't looking favorable to them.

Back in the Archinviel Dukedom Shadowslash have finally returned back to his first mansion and the first territory he ever bought.

There are now an increase to the number of servants in his territory he then went inside sneakily to surprised the kids.

After sneaking in the first place he went to is the pond but in truth it was already considered a lake than a pond and there are three of them and each of them are connected with each other.

Shadowslash knew this since he immediately scanned it after arriving.

He then saw Lilia meditating besides her was Stephanie who was humming as if she was napping

He then smiled as he sneaks quietly near them without disturbing the water floats besides Lilia and seeing that she isn't really in deep meditation and is only idly replenishing her Mana he decided to prank her.

He then blows in her ear and with fire energy with that causing it to be a hot air.

"Kyaaa!!!" Lilia immediately shouted as she covers her ear and looks at the person besides her.

When she finally saw Shadowslash's figure she blanked out Stephanie besided her was also shocked to see him.

Lilia then shouted "Who are you?! how dare you impersonate Master Shadowslash!"

Shadowslash was taken aback he then looks at his figure in the water and found out that he changed after his deep meditation.

He is now a lot buffer and he estimated he was 4 inch taller than before other than that his looks became a bit feminine for his taste causing him to feel extremely sad.

He then hurriedly started to explain to Lilia "Wait!, just wait it is really me you could ask me any question that I could only know"

Lilia looks at him but her doubt is still there she said "You couldn't be Master as he never tried to prank us before"

Shadowslash was dumbfounded because of this reason he was suspected to be an impostor.

He then sighed and explained "I am just busy during all this time but when I have free time I would play with the others"

Lilia still looks at him suspiciously causing Shadowslash to sigh in a depressed manner just as he thought he would never make Lilia believes him.

Just as he was deep in thought an inspiration hit him he then said "Well I know one method for the both of you to believe me"

He then released his bestial aura causing the aquatic monsters in the three lakes and around it to become intimidated.

Shadowslash know for a fact that he is known for his strength and his aura belongs to only him and him.alone.

After feeling his overwhelming aura Lilia immediately confirmed that he is really Shadowslash an impostor couldn't copy the unique aura of Shadowslash after all his aura consist of his fox bloodline charm, spirit beast aura, king beast aura and the aura that involves mamy different aura of his subordinates.

Lilia then brightens up she first apologised for misunderstanding before asking "When did you return Master? is the others with you?"

Shadowslash shakes his head and answered "No only me and Banjo have return back here we are here to fix a problem involving the accident in the Howling Ridge"

Lilia knew what he is talking about as she was also informed about the disturbance in the Howling Ridge causing the monsters living in there to run from their life.

Only some monsters decided to stay but there is one accident that really shook the whole city it was a domineering dragon roar that shook the whole ridge and the whole city.

The aura alone is comparable no more likely much stronger than Shadowslash's.

Lilia told Shadowslash about this and some other stuff pertaining their territory but of course the person who truly knew the information regarding their territory and the Archinviel City is Reias Sharmy.

Shadowslash then told Lilia that he would be going back to the mansion to store some food for Banjo and him.

The food in Hentai's storage were destroyed when it is fixing the secret realm besides that most of them probably dried out after squeezing their remaining Mana and energy to fuel Shadowslash during his journey from the capital city to the Archinviel Dukedom.

Lilia decided to accompany him so that the earlier situation wouldn't happen again.

She then waved goodbye to Stephanie and said "Tell Mystique I'll be out for a while"

Shadowslash stops and asks "Can I see Mystique?"

Hearing this Lilia remembers that Shadowslash have the ability to look at the monsters abilities and attributes

She then said "Stephanie can you bring Mystique here I wanted Master Shadowslash to see her improvement"

Even though Mystique's improvement might not be much since she doesn't fight that often she was still quite strong herself.

Stephanie dives down and after a while she came back together with a cute looking monster with a long body and cute pink scales.
