Chapter 954 - Beast Storage Token
Even though Princess Daphne thought of asking her Grandpa Lin for help, deep down she knew that he was not proficient in healing techniques.
So, when she heard Ajax's words, she asked about the person who could save her 'Little Blue'.
"He is none other than Master Elek."
Since there was not much time before the secret realm kicked them out, Ajax hurriedly replied to Princess Daphne.
"Master Elek? Do you mean one of the vagrant cultivators, The soul handler?"
Princess Daphne asked Ajax with an expectant look in her eyes.
"Yes, he was proficient in soul techniques and in the past, I even saw him treat a spirit beast which was suffering from the same condition as your 'Little Blue'. So, what do you say?"
Ajax was hoping she would not ask any more questions and she would just give him permission to the spirit crane with him.
"Since you have such a high regard for Master Elek, then let's go to them and ask for his help."
Princess Daphne didn't waste any time agreeing to Ajax's suggestion and said they should go as soon as possible.
"..."
Ajax became speechless when he heard Princess Daphne's words.
"Th..this...I am sorry to say this but Master Elek is a short-tempered person and he didn't like others entering into his secret realm. So, If you trust me, you can give me your 'Little blue', I will take care of it and I promise you to bring it back as soon as the mission is completed."
Finally, Ajax used the trump card he had been waiting to use for a while now and at the same time, he silently thought, 'I hope, Master Elek didn't mind me calling me a short-tempered person.'
'Mission?'
Princess Daphne raised her brows as she felt there was something wrong with Ajax's words.
"Yeah...the mission is healing the 'Little Blue'."
Ajax anxiously covered his earlier usage of the word 'Mission'.
"Thank you, Ajax. In the future, I will definitely help you if you need anything."
Princess Daphne bowed a little and thanked Ajax and before Ajax could say anything, she turned to the mutated spirit crane and said, "While you are with me, don't make any troubles, okay?"
Princess Daphne lightly caressed the spirit crane while holding back her tears when she said those words.
"I will, master."
Spirit crane nodded her head as tears started coming out of her eyes.
"Here. Since she is not your contracted spirit beast, you can't store her in your spirit consciousness. This thing will help you."
Soon, Princess Daphne turned her head back and threw a small circular token with many spirit beasts' symbols on it.
'Huh?'
Ajax looked at the token with a confused look on his face; however, soon the details regarding the token appeared in front of him.
'Ding,
Item name:- Beast Storage Token.
Grade :- Special.
Use:- It can be used to store the spirit beasts without forming a contract with them.
'Nice item.'
Ajax nodded his head at the information of the token before saying to Princess Daphne, "Thanks for the beast storage token."
'Swoosh'
As soon as he finished his words, Ajax injected his essence of nature to activate the token before storing the mutated spirit crane into the storage token.
"Ajax, please take care of it."
Just after Ajax stored the spirit crane into the token, Princess Daphne could not help but cry as she asked Ajax to take care of the spirit crane.
"Of course, I will."
'Swoosh'
Ajax nodded his head and replied; however, at the same time, Ajax and Princess Daphne disappeared from the secret realm.
…..
Outside the secret realm.
'What is taking them so long?'
'Did something happen to her?'
.
.
Outside the secret realm, the old man Lin was anxiously walking from one end to another while thinking about Princess Daphne.
"Guardian Lin, you don't have to worry about her. She will be fine."
From the distance, King Stephen was walking towards the old man Lin along with his old minister.
"Your majesty."
Seeing the appearance of King Stephen, the old man Lin paused in his steps and bowed a little before greeting him.
Even though the old man Lin bowed and greeted King Stephen, it lacked respect, making King Stephen clench his fists in anger.
"They will come out any moment now."
Nevertheless, King Stephen knew that the royal family needed someone like Old man Lin. So, he put a casual smile on his face and replied to the old man Lin.
'Once, my cultivator's law increases to level 8, I will force him to become a royal shadow.'
However, deep inside his heart, King Stephen was having other plans for the Old man Lin.
'Swoosh'
Just as the Old man Lin was about to reply, both Ajax and Princess Daphne appeared in front of the old wall.
"Little girl, you are back."
After seeing Princess Daphne, Old man Lin didn't bother with King Stephen anymore; instead, he walked towards Princess Daphne.
"Grandpa Lin."
Princess Daphne hurriedly cleaned her face with a handkerchief because her face was completely filled with tears.
'Huh? Why is he having the same cultivation?'
As for King Stephen, he didn't bother to glance at his daughter; instead, he checked Ajax's cultivation and he was shocked to see that there was no change in Ajax's cultivation even after staying in the Sacred Pool for seven days.
'What the hell? If he didn't cultivate in the Sacred Pool, then what the hell did he do for the last seven days?'
'Should I still execute my plan? But his cultivation is very low.'
King Stephen was having many plans for Ajax. So, when he saw that there was no change in Ajax's cultivation, he was greatly disappointed.
'But his battle prowess is top-notch even better than those disciples from the three sects.'
Stephen King looked at Ajax and then looked at Princess Daphne before coming to a conclusion.
