Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel-Chapter 132 The Mantis Stalks The Cicada, Unaware Of The Oriole Behind...

At first the Essence Draining spider struggled under his feet, But when it saw the look on Chiron's Face, It understood.

Normally, There were only so much people or creatures he could make a master-servant bond with.

The reason he could do so was because of a particular ability he had.

*Lord of Servants!*

This ability allowed him to have many servants under his name. It was one of the abilities he had gotten when he got Aura energy.

Now, Chiron had Hunter as a Pet beast, the dragon egg, and the Essence Draining spider.

The Ceremony for the bond to be made was concluded.

However, he could at the moment not use the Essence draining spider.

after all, Chiron had cut off all of the beast's legs.

It would need to heal.

Chiron immediately went deep into the forest and hunted two Cored beasts of the Green core rank.

The dropped the beasts before the Essence draining Spider.

"Eat up, and heal! When I need you, I'll call for you."

He came back to the Cave and Hunter followed behind him.

Everything on this side had been prepared properly. Just to be on the saver side, he checked his 'Cow' once more.

Seeing that it was feeding well brought a smile to his face.

And now, it was time for a different thing.

He had issues with his party members that he had to settle.

He was currently at the base of the Dormant volcano.

The Ceiling was very high up. But it was a shorter route to the top.

It looked dark, but that was because the top had been sealed by Ice for hundreds of years.

This also meant that this was a short cut to the top. Of course he could not fly, but that did not mean there was no any other way to get up there.

He looked at Hunter by his side. The little guy was chewing on some of the meat that Chiron had provided for the Essence Draining Spider.

The little guy had fearlessly stolen some for himself.

Secretly, Chiron acknowledged this. It was good that the little beast knew that it had to survive for itself.

Independence to a certain extent would allow for the creature to be strong and useful.

"Keep the meat! You can enjoy it another time."

Immediately, Hunter opened up a shadow pool and dumped the meat inside.

The creature could not exactly understand human language, but it had a blood bond to its master. The reason Chiron talked to it was to slowly teach it.

"We are going up there!" Chiron pointed.

Can you swim that good?"

Hunter answered by making a large Shadow pool.

Just like Chiron had done before, he entered the Shadow pool and held on to the beast's tail as it swarm through the shadow pool to the peak.

.....

Meanwhile, there had finally made it.

According to the map that Carla had, they had finally made it to the top. Or at least close enough to it.

Up here was snowy and it was really cold.

It was so cold up here that if it was in Chiron's former world, the cold would have been measured at -15 degrees in the very least.

All of them had heavy clothing on, and they used their spiritual energies to continually warm themselves up.

For days since Chiron's supposed death, they had been climbing the mountain.

The journey had not in anyway been smooth.

Many times they encountered beasts that nearly took their lives, but Ponzi was really an outstanding leader and had helped to guide them well.

He made only the right decisions that Maximized the efficiency of the team.

Luckily, the higher they went, the fewer beasts they encountered.

Only those Creatures that could really exist in very cold places were up here. And most of them were fortunately not carnivorous.

After twists and turns on the mountain area, there finally reached the place.

However, something was greatly wrong.

According to the information from the Bureau For Cultivators, this place was supposed to be filled with Snow white Tulip flowers and other important herbs.

But what there were seeing was totally different.

On their way up here, there were many plants, but the goal had always been to get the Snow white Tulip Flower.

Now they had reached the place it was supposed to be found, and there was absolutely nothing there.

All around the place was just empty snow.

Even the other Snow plants that were supposed to be around the place were not there.

"Wait a minute!" Duna turned to Carla, "are you sure you read the Map currently?"

"Yes, Yes I did! And according to the map, we are there."

Luna pulled the map from Carla's hand but apart from a green glow, the paper in her eyes was blank. She suddenly remembered that this was the reason there still needed Carla.

This was an effort put in place by the clan to ensure that quest maps were never stolen from the person they were assigned to.

The quest map would be tethered to only the person that paid at the counter for the mission.

Ponzi, Duna and Luna had too much debts on their hands. They did not have the financial capability to pay for it.

But not Carla. Some how, her mother had provided the fee necessary to pay for the mission, and therefore she was the only person capable of using the map.

"I don't believe this! This wrench must have taken us through a wrong path." Luna complained.

Ever since Chiron's supposed death, the attitude of the team members these past few days to Carla had completely changed. It had also changed to Zi, but not so much. After all, she was still Ponzi's Cousin.

"That's not possible," Ponzi shook his head, "The map is glowing green. That means that we are at our destination."

Ponzi was more knowledgeable than the others. These Dormant Volcano had be surveyed by experts of higher ranks a long time ago.

In fact, a survey of the place still occurs every now and then.

This was how the safe paths for different ranks of cultivators was known, and also what judged different regions under various danger ranks.

Ponzi shook his head. He could not believe that their hard work here had all been for nothing, "we should search around the place. Maybe they are scattered around the place."

The party members understood what he meant and there went around searching the place.

However, hours went by, there search remained unfruitful. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

They were already getting tired and Zi sat on the ground to relax a little. She had the least cultivation amongst the party members and had been burning through it to keep warm.

Just then, her hand felt something on the snowy ground. She looked to check what it was. Behold, she discovered that she was sitting on a stalk Of Flower.

She pulled hard at the stalk and there it was. It was Cupped shaped with three petals and three Sepals. At the center of its cup was a small ball of snow.

This was the Snow White Tulip Flower.

"I've FOUND it!" Zi Screamed.

The others heard her voice and immediately ran over.

There had searched for hours, but this was the only one there could find.

Ponzi's eyes shone with a light that made it seem as if he was pirate looking at gold.

"Give it to me," he ordered in a firm tone.

She stretched her hand and handed it over to her.

Immediately she did, a smile bloomed on his face. This was it. This was what he had been searching for, for a long time.

"Yes! we are going to be rich!" Luna jubilated.

"RICH!?" Those words did not sound right in Carla's ears. "What do you mean? My mother needs that flower to be well."

Luna stopped celebrating and turned to Carla. She looked at her like she was looking at an obvious fool.

Carla turned to Duna. Unsurprisingly, he also stared at her in that manner.

She turned to Ponzi, and his was the worse. He did not even have her in his sight. All he did was admire the flower in his hand.

Duna suddenly pulled out his sword and advanced towards Carla, and so did Luna.

"Ponzi! we don't need her anymore right?" Luna asked.

Duna nodded, "she looks over used. If we get rid of her here, no one will find out. We'll just say it was a cored beast."

Luna nodded in agreement.

However, Ponzi had other ideas in mind.

"Ponzi!" Luna called again, "What do you think? Should we do it now...?"

She turned behind.

*SLASH!*

The melodious sound of metal cutting through flesh was heard and a head fell on the ground.

Some of the blood splashed on Duna who was smiling mischievously at Carla.

However, he suddenly noticed that the head on the ground was not Carla's but it had the surprise look of his sister.

He immediately turned before the second strike landed. He barely dodged it. However, a arm was cut off...
