The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 840

Karl focused on the front gates of the Dryad’s house, and then cast [Portal]. The spell took a surprising amount of mana, more than five times what a Monarch Ranked attack spell would take. No wonder mages didn’t use this spell casually, it would nearly drain a Royal Rank mage in one casting, and a Commander would struggle to use it at all without help.

The older Dryad came out as soon as the portal opened, then paused in confusion as Karl stepped out and waved at her.

"Oh, Overlord Karl! How are you liking your new Guild House?" She asked. Enjoy exclusive adventures from freewebnovel

"It is wonderful, thank you. You did an excellent job. I actually stopped by to tell you that Jones is on vacation for the next week or two. He didn’t want you to worry when he didn’t join you for tea."

"Oh, that is very thoughtful of him. Thank you for taking time out of your day to come all the way over here. If you see my daughter, send her back, would you? We just had an order come in, and she’s over at your place having a play date with the Green Dragon Cleric. Flower? Lotus. Yes, Lotus was her name."

Karl smiled. "I will see what I can do. You might end up with both of them instead, but I will let Rain know that there is work to do at home."

Karl had only been gone an hour or so. It would not be easy to separate them if the two had just started on whatever they had planned for the rest of the day.

Karl walked back to the house instead of using [Portal] again, intending to surprise everyone. But there were surprises waiting for him as well.

The property’s back wall was now lined with tall trees, and Lotus stood in tree form behind the well, with dozens of small children playing in the grass.

Rain was up in Lotus’ branches, singing to the children, while the rest of the team sat on the front porch with snacks.

Even Davis was on the porch, so they must have no customers at the moment.

"Oh, are we throwing a party?" Karl asked as he walked in the gate.

Davis nodded. "Yes. The kids from the elementary school a few blocks south of here got the whole afternoon off because the teacher got sick.

The Dean brought her here, and all the kids followed to make sure that her illness would be cured. And well..."

That was all the explanation that they really needed. There were worried children, now there was a party.

"Is the teacher well?" Karl asked instead.

"She’s resting on the second floor. Apparently, she was exposed to a cursed item on the beach. It must have been washed ashore recently, but the Guards have already sent a team to look for it before anyone else is injured.

Did you get what you were looking for?" Davis replied.

"I did. I’ll tell you all about it later."

Then Karl patted Dana on the shoulder and taught her [Portal].

Well, at least the kids got a short break from lessons. _{freēwēbnovel.com}
