It was not a big cave, but it was dry. It was an excellent place for them to rest.
Darryl was pleased. ‘This cave is not bad; I shall bring Yvette and the Empress here later.’
Their boat was gone, so he could only find a place for them to rest as they thought about their next step!
Darryl went into the cave to look around as he muttered to himself about the next plan. He was very satisfied with it.
Roar!
Suddenly, he heard an enchanted beast’s roar from deep within the jungle. It was low, but it had terrifying shots of power.
Damn it!
‘There is an enchanted beast here?’
Darryl was shocked to hear the beast’s loud roar. He was surprised, but he was not nervous at all.
Even though Darryl did not know anything about the enchanted beast, he could feel its strength. He knew that the beast would be a Martial Sage, perhaps at level five.
He was not worried about a level five Martial Sage’s spirit! Darryl still had injuries all over his body, so he could do a little exercise to heal them.
As he thought about that, Darryl walked out of the cave and went back the same way. Yvette greeted him as soon as he reached the beach.
“Did you find anything, Darryl?” Yvette asked joyfully; she did not even wait for him to get closer to her.
The Empress felt cold.
She was also embarrassed; she was a dignified Empress, yet she had to live on a deserted island.
“Yvette!”
Darryl smiled and took Yvette’s hand. “There is a cave near the mountain. It’s a great place for us to rest, but—”
“There is a cave for us to rest?” Before he could finish with his sentence, the Empress interrupted him impatiently, “Why don’t you take us there now?”
