RISE OF EROS-Chapter 684 - 683

Returning to Cannes, Zaros and Lucios had already calmed down with Biacko’s intervention, so they moved on to discuss more important matters. Zaros now calm, asked about what Biacko had said earlier.

Biacko had told them when they were about to launch themselves with all their strength against the enemies that Andrew and the others were fine. It must be understood that his grandchildren were with Andrew, so it was not a matter of just protecting Andrew.

Zaros like most powerful demigods, tends to distance himself from family and loved ones, but that does not mean that he does not love them, just that he shows a colder attitude.

This is a common characteristic of the powerful. Since they feel so close to divinity, they distance themselves from their mortal loved ones, but that does not mean that their feelings die.

If that was the case, Zaros wouldn’t have acted so furiously when he saw the green-cloaked leader of Purgatory return apparently fulfilling his mission, and he wouldn’t be sad to see the city he had built in ruins either.

Biacko hearing Zaros’ question began to explain. Despite being a dragon king and one of the oldest and most powerful beings on the continent, it didn’t mean he knew the capabilities of a god candidate’s temple.

Not even Crhono as the oldest and most powerful being in existence knew all the secrets of a temple. Not to mention that each temple is different, depending not only on the domain of the god or god candidate but also on the individual.

Even if a god candidate Eros like Andrew appeared, his temples would have differences from Andrew’s, so it was impossible to know all the characteristics of these places.

Chorno might be the most knowledgeable of the characteristics of a temple, but he still didn’t know everything, so it was impossible for Biacko who is not as knowledgeable as Crhono to know that Andrew had teleported everyone to Dunnas.

What happened was that when the dragons arrived at the scene, they saw the green-cloaked Purgatory leader attacking Cannes Palace and immediately went there to stop him, but by the time they arrived this man had already left.

Long story short, Biacko and the other dragons had already inspected the place before going to support Zaros, Lugia, and Lucian. Just like the green-cloaked man, they found no traces of blood or human remains.

Because of this, they came to the same conclusion as the green-clad Purgatory leader, which was that somehow Andrew and the others had managed to escape. They might not know how, but they were sure that they had not been hurt.

After Biacko’s explanation, Zaros, Lugia, and Lucian went to where Cannes Palace used to be. Now all that could be seen was a barren area, with no trace of life and rubble everywhere.

It wasn’t that there wasn’t blood or human remains to be seen nearby, but they were obviously from people in the nearby buildings who suffered from the attack, but where the Cannes Palace was, no trace of death could be seen.

Damon and Abigale were there looking at the place, clearly worried. Despite the wounds they had, they were desperately searching the place trying to find some trace of life. Their three children were in the Cannes Palace, so like any parent, they worried about losing their children. Zaros seeing them could only put on a loving expression.

That’s his family, so he can understand his pain, so he quickly apologizes to Biacko, Lugia, and the other dragons to meet with his son and daughter-in-law. Damon and Abigale seeing Zaros’ arrival immediately ran to him.

Normally they were calm and presented themselves to Zaros with respect, but at this moment the anguish was killing them, so they skipped the formalities. Zaros didn’t worry about trifles.

In fact, he didn’t particularly like his family treating him with such reverence. He may have distanced himself from them a bit, but he still loved them and didn’t want to be an outsider, but he couldn’t do anything about their behavior.

Damon and the others treated him like that and Zaros didn’t want to have to explain himself to them so they would treat him normally. "Father, what happened?" Damon asked anxiously.

Although it seemed like he was asking about the battle, Zaros understood that what he was really asking was about Cannes Palace and his children, so Zaros began to explain to them what Biacko had told him.

Zaros didn’t just blindly believe what Biacko had told him. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust him, but as a meticulous person and being a situation that affected his family, upon arriving he checked everything personally.

It was because of this that he dared to comfort Damon and Abigale, telling them that most likely everyone was fine. Zaros calmly and in detail explained his findings, which reassured Damon and Abigale.

They were a little calmer now, but that didn’t mean their worries were gone. While everything pointed to Andrew and the others being able to escape, there was no certainty.

Just as there was no proof that they had died, there was also no proof that they were safe and that still worried them. Still, they had calmed down and were now more serene, or at least appeared to be.

After calming down his son and daughter-in-law, Zaros returned to where Biacko and Lugia were, leaving Lucian with Damon and Abigale. "I’m sorry about this Major Biacko," Zaros apologized, as he had left the guests alone.

Biacko didn’t give it any importance. He waved his hand as if apologies weren’t necessary and instead said, "Apologies are unnecessary. The important thing here now is to find the young god candidate."

"Do you have any idea where they might be or how they escaped?" Biacko asked. Zaros was the closest, so it didn’t hurt to ask him, although he knew the answer perfectly well. If Zaros knew Andrew’s way of escape, at the time they had arrived, he wouldn’t be so angry believing that they had been killed, but there was no harm in asking.

Just as Biacko believed, Zaros only denied bitterly. Zaros had no idea how Andrew and the others could have escaped and what was more worrying was that he didn’t know if they had escaped.

Unfortunately, Andrew couldn’t tell them where they were either, since Dunnas to Cannes is several countries away and there was no Heavenly Palace nearby where he could teleport to communicate with them.

This caused some discomfort, but these were demigods with centuries of life and experience, so they didn’t panic. For his part, Andrew, who had already taken a full bottle of wine, sat down on the nearby sofa.

No one dared to say anything, as Andrew seemed to need the silence, but Andrew then asked, "Does anyone have a way to tell Elder Zaros and the others that we are safe?"

Jasper, Helga, and Layla looked at each other, but the dark expressions on their faces showed that they had no way to communicate. Sending a messenger falcon would take days, so it wasn’t a good option either.

After weighing the options, Andrew let out a sigh and stood up from the couch and said, "Well, we’ll have to go visit Elder Emaliene, maybe she has a way."
