The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 917

Chapter 917 Battle Report

The Long House was like a military barracks, set up for a hundred people to sleep in, with a large open space in the centre, set up for a cooking fire.

Karl woke up the next morning to the usual sounds of his group in camp. Dana mumbling to herself as she shifted in his arms. Thor and Tessa preparing breakfast, Lotus trying to escape from Ophelia, and now Nachtia, laughing at the little Priestess' dilemma.

The black dragon waved at Karl as he sat up in bed. "O really isn't a morning person, is she?"

Everyone awake shook their heads in solidarity.

"If she didn't have Lotus with her, she would sleep at least three more hours a day. But they're basically a bonded pair at this point, so she puts up with the early morning wake-up calls." Karl explained quietly.

Ophelia opened one eye, then ruffled Lotus' hair before tucking the little cleric back underneath her. "You're all too loud. We were up for two days and a night. Let me sleep."

Tessa chuckled. "Well, it's almost noon. If we don't have breakfast now, it'll be lunch."

They had slept from late afternoon until nearly noon the next day, and she was hungry.

The Orcs had brought them supplies at some point, as there was a basket of eggs by the door. But Thor had given her a large whale steak to fry, and there was a massive skillet full of what smelled like bacon grease, garlic and chopped potatoes.

Once that was frying, the smell was enough to rouse Ophelia from her slumber, and everyone got prepared for their day's activities.

Priestess Delilah came inside, transformed into a middle-aged woman with hair as bright red as her robes, and a stern face that spoke of countless years dealing with children.

"Do you mind if I join you? There are some things to discuss this morning while the army is preoccupied." The red dragon asked.

"There's always enough for more visitors. Sit where you like." Tessa agreed.

Delilah picked a spot beside Nachtia, as she was alone on a bed, and got right to business.

"It seems that your premonition was right. The energy flows were a trap, and the arrival of the last wave of Totems was not a coincidence.
