Novel Full Chapter 480 You Can No Longer Hide From Me
Jasper leaned against a tree as he waited for the Half-Elf to arrive.
The sun was about to set, and he was feeling a little anxious about whether or not Lux would really appear to meet up with him.
Finally, after nearly two hours of waiting, he saw the Half-Elf walking in his direction.
Just as he expected, Lux came alone, not bringing even a single bodyguards with him.
“You came,” Jasper greeted with a smile.
“Of course,” Lux replied. “You promised to give Wildgarde Stronghold special privileges, so I came.”
Jasper arched an eyebrow. “Oh? Is that the only reason you came? What will you do if I break my word?”
Lux shrugged. “Nothing. I’m just making sure that those watching this conversation understand that you promised me some privileges to make this meeting happen. If you break it, then you will have to worry about the repercussions when we leave this place. Do you really think that Commander Gerald is someone that you can bully?”
Gerald and the other Guardians of Wildgarde Stronghold had truly cared for him while he was growing up inside the Fortress City.
Although he held a grudge against them, that didn’t mean that he didn’t have their best interest at heart. If there was something he could do to allow his hometown to gain benefits, he would gladly do it, even stepping foot into a trap in order to make it happen.
Jasper chuckled before clapping his hands together.
“Of course, I will keep my promise,” Jasper said. “I said that I will find a way to convince the higher-ups to grant special privileges to Wildgarde Stronghold. However, if I don’t manage to convince them, then it isn’t my fault. After all, even though I can be considered as a Prodigy, I’m just one of their many underlings.”
Lux smirked because he had a feeling that it would come to this. However, he wasn’t worried. Since he was already here, he decided to enjoy this farce until the end.
“So, what did you want to talk about?” Lux asked.
“I’m not the one who wants to talk to you,” Jasper replied. “It is General Revon who wants to talk to you.”
As if waiting for that cue, the General of the Ammarian Army stepped out from the trees in a very casual manner as if he was just taking a stroll in the forest. He then walked towards Lux, eyeing the Half-Elf from head to foot.
“I don’t see any fear in your eyes, which means this thing in front of us is one of your clones,” General Revon said.
“I’m quite honored to see that General Revon has come personally to deal with me,” Lux stated.
General Revon chuckled as he patted Lux’s shoulder.
“I was very impressed with what you did earlier,” General Revon commented as he poked the Baby Slime that was on top of Lux’s head. “I was wondering if I could convince you to work for me. Whatever promises the Yelan Army gave you, I plan to double them all. The treasury of the Ammarian Army is bigger than that of the Yelan Kingdom. I’m sure that you will not be disappointed if you work for us.”
Eiko’s clone, who was being poked by the enemy General, spat a blob of water at General Revon’s head, which the latter evaded with ease.
“Quite a feisty pet you have there.” General Revon chuckled. “I’ve seen many people tame powerful beasts, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone tame an ordinary Blue Slime.”
Eiko’s clone then summoned a red-steel-ball and tossed it at the enemy general, who was making fun of her.
General Revon casually flicked the Blast Bomb with his finger and obliterated it before it could even explode.
“So, how about it, Lux?” General Revon pressed both of his hands over the Half-Elf’s shoulder and stared at him straight in the eyes. “Want to join my side?”
“No,” Lux replied firmly. “I’ve already made my choice. I’ll stick with it till the end.”
General Revon sighed before shaking his head helplessly.
“What a shame.” General Revon then raised his hand, pressing his thumb and middle finger together. “Don’t regret your choice, okay?”
The Ammarian General then snapped his fingers, making a loud and crisp sound.
A moment later, the Half-Elf’s body exploded in a shower of blood, making Jasper wince.
“Ah, I almost forgot about you,” General Revon said as he raised his foot to step on the baby slime, who had fallen on the puddle of blood and flesh.
A second later, his foot came down and crushed Eiko’s clone, killing it instantly.
After making sure that his targets were all eliminated, General Revon smirked as he raised his hand.
“Now, you can run, but you can’t hide from me.” General Revon sneered.
The Ammarian General had the ability to locate the people that he had touched.
Although the one he talked to and touched was Lux’s clone, it was a perfect replica of the Half-Elf, allowing General Revon to pinpoint the red-headed teenager’s location.
The General had also poked Eiko’s clone, which also allowed him to locate where the baby slime was currently.
After confirming that his ability had locked onto his targets, the Ammarian General smiled before returning to his camp.
The purpose of meeting with Lux was for him to use his ability to track his location. Once the battle started, he would order his Assassins to eliminate Lux as soon as possible to prevent him from continuing to be a threat to their mission.
Jasper gave the puddle of blood on the ground a side-long glance before following behind the Ammarian General.
He had accomplished his mission and would gain the rewards that the General had promised him for helping him put a tracker on the Half-Elf’s original body.

Yelan Army Camp…
“Mumumumu!” Eiko jumped angrily in place, on top of Lux’s head, as soon as her Papa’s clone, and her own clone were killed.
Clearly, the Baby Slime didn’t like seeing Lux get killed even if it was just a clone, making her very angry.
“It’s fine, Eiko,” Lux caught the jumping Baby Slime with both hands before coaxing her to calm down.
“Did it work?” Lux asked Eiko, who was still in a bad mood.
“Pa!” Eiko replied.
A devilish smile appeared on Lux’s face after hearing Eiko’s reply.
“Good.” Lux patted the Baby Slime’s head, which allowed Eiko to calm down a bit more.
After Eiko had secretly killed Second, who was hiding thousands of meters under the ground, the Half-Elf checked the Baby Slime’s information in his Soul Book once again.
There, he found that Eiko had somehow acquired a Unique Skill called Fairy Princess’ Grudge Domain [EX].
——-
< Fairy Princess’ Grudge Domain [EX] >
– When Eiko has a grudge on someone, and treats them as an enemy with the intention of harming and even killing them, she will be able to detect their exact location as long as they are within a ten-mile radius of her location.
– It doesn’t matter if the target is in the sky, at the bottom of the sea, or beneath the earth. Those who bear the Fairy Princess’ Grudge cannot escape her sights as long as they are within Eiko’s Grudge Domain.
——-
“Jasper and General Revon, you can no longer hide from me,” the Half-Elf said as he opened his map, allowing Eiko’s ability to fuse with it.
Since Eiko was his Beast Companion, he was able to pinpoint the location of the people whom she held a grudge with on his map, even if he didn’t have her Unique Skill.
Neither side knew that they could now pinpoint each other’s location anytime they wanted.
While both sides were thinking that they managed to get an advantage during their little meet-up earlier, the one who would truly benefit from it would be known a few days later, once both armies clashed again and performed their respective roles on the battlefield.
