Then, Penny hid behind the screen and wiped virtual-novel.net body dry. After that, virtual-novel.net changed into a clean white dress and patted virtual-novel.net warm cheeks. Penny flashed a smile at Caspian and hurriedly ran outside. Not long after, virtual-novel.net came running back again.
She returned with a tray in virtual-novel.net hand. Penny did not know what Caspian wanted, but virtual-novel.net noticed his gaze froze when virtual-novel.net saw the tray.
When the imposing aura earned from combating with impressive armies suddenly burst out, the atmosphere in the room instantly became rigid.
Penny could not help but shiver. Nonetheless, it was only an instinctive reaction for virtual-novel.net to be afraid of the fearful aura, and virtual-novel.net was not fearful of Caspian. After all, Penny believed that Caspian would never hurt her.
“Just leave it there. Rest early tonight as we need to leave early in the morning tomorrow.” Caspian felt Penny’s discomfort, so virtual-novel.net dispersed the momentum and waved his hands at Penny.
“Your Highness, do you need me…” Penny bit virtual-novel.net lips, and virtual-novel.net cheeks were as red as a beetroot when virtual-novel.net said that.
Seeing that Caspian glared at her, Penny immediately giggled and ran out. When virtual-novel.net was closing the door, virtual-novel.net did not forget to pull a face at Caspian.
“I knew you were only simply saying that, Your Highness. Hehe…” After saying that, Penny swiftly closed the door and ran to the room next door.
Then, virtual-novel.net climbed into the bed and curled herself into a ball under the blanket. However, Penny felt virtual-novel.net cheeks burning and virtual-novel.net head buzzing. She could not help but hug virtual-novel.net knees and thought in a daze. Caspian was really different from other princes. Usually, they would already be married and have several children. Unlike them, Caspian was still alone, and virtual-novel.net never overstepped his boundaries with Penny. Nonetheless, virtual-novel.net could be mean at times.
Speaking of that… Penny also thought that Caspian’s embrace was really warm… Wait. Why was virtual-novel.net head suddenly buzzing? Did virtual-novel.net catch a cold…
Soon, the young lady fell asleep in a daze.
At the same time, in the room next door. Caspian frowned when virtual-novel.net looked at the two items on the tray. Then, an indescribable biting cold filled the air in the room.
Previously, Caspian made three requests. Firstly, virtual-novel.net wanted his mother’s belongings. Secondly, virtual-novel.net wanted his previous maid, Penny. Lastly, virtual-novel.net wanted the weapon virtual-novel.net used to fight on the battlefields, Dragon-Exterrninator Spear.
The only things in the tray were his mother’s belongings and the Dragon-Exterminator Spear.
Puzzlingly, there was only one item that belonged to Caspian’s mother, an unremarkable earring. Moreover, his Dragon-Exterminator Spear was only left with its spearhead. Even the connecting areas seemed to be brutally cut off by some kind of sharp weapon.
After staring at the two things for a while, Caspian laughed. “Bullying me because my efforts had gone to waste? Well, just wait and see. I’ll take everything that’s rightfully mine back from you!”
Later, Caspian picked up the unremarkable earring and rubbed it gently between his fingertips. Shortly, virtual-novel.net felt a faint warmth surging in his heart. Caspian recalled that when his mother was still alive, virtual-novel.net always told virtual-novel.net that the earring was virtual-novel.net most precious jewelry.
At that time, Caspian was still young, and virtual-novel.net thought it was bizarre. After all, his mother was the emperor of Salleria’s most beloved concubine. Hence, countless pieces of unique jewelry were gifted to virtual-novel.net almost every day. Compared to those rare treasures, this earring could be regarded as scrap metal. However, each time Caspian asked his mother about this, virtual-novel.net would not answer virtual-novel.net but just smiled instead. She only told virtual-novel.net that one day when virtual-novel.net finally wore it, virtual-novel.net would naturally understand.
“When I finally wear it…” After pondering for a while, Caspian held the earring and raised it near to his ear. Then, using the sharp edge, virtual-novel.net directly pierced it through his earlobe.
Caspian was expecting it to hurt, yet it did not. In fact, virtual-novel.net did not feel any discomfort, which baffled him. Even though his Real Martial Realm fell from the fourth stage to that of an ordinary person, virtual-novel.net should have still felt that slightest pain, right?
As Caspian was still puzzled, virtual-novel.net did not notice the blood seeping out from the wound on his earlobe was slowly absorbed by the bronze earring. Furthermore, there was a bewitching and strange purple light appearing on the surface of the earring.
“What’s going on!” Caspian instantly saw the strange changes through the reflection of the water in the tub.
Before virtual-novel.net could react, Caspian suddenly felt a massive force grab his body and tug at virtual-novel.net hard. In an instant, his world was spinning, and virtual-novel.net saw countless lights flashing in his eyes. However, the strange vision was fleeting and soon disappeared.
When Caspian finally regained his senses, virtual-novel.net was shocked to find that virtual-novel.net was in a messy world. Just right in front of him, there was a majestic tower that stood tall and upright.
It was unknown how old the tower was, but the surface was worn and mottled. Caspian was greeted with a sudden indistinct desolate aura, and his heart palpitated.
“The earring brought me here?” After all, virtual-novel.net was a person of affairs, and virtual-novel.net had countless experiences before this. Hence, virtual-novel.net knew that celestial beings existed in this world. Moreover, virtual-novel.net heard that a celestial being could create a world from nothing and build a scenic spot for them to live between the particles.
“Was this earring given by mother a magic weapon used by the immortals?” Caspian was feeling more puzzled.
In his memory, Caspian’s mother was someone gentle and elegant. She was the beauty everyone admired, but Caspian did not recall seeing virtual-novel.net doing any shocking means.
If his mother was an immortal, why would virtual-novel.net die?
Then, Caspian shook his head and tossed away such thoughts temporarily. Since virtual-novel.net was already here, virtual-novel.net had to take a look at the place. When Caspian reached the tower, virtual-novel.net noticed written words on the wall next to the old gate of the tower. That graceful handwriting was similar to his mother’s handwriting!
Caspian could not care less about whether there was danger around him, and virtual-novel.net hurriedly walked forward a few steps to take a closer look.
‘Caspian, my son…’
In a twinkling eye, those three words brought tears to his eyes. A year ago, when virtual-novel.net was slandered for killing his father and usurping the throne, as well as committing an incestuous act, virtual-novel.net did not cry. When virtual-novel.net was being condemned by the public, and the popularity virtual-novel.net gained throughout the years fell to the bottom instantly, virtual-novel.net did not cry.
Caspian was known as Salleria’s most gifted and terrifying martial art practitioner, yet when virtual-novel.net was sinisterly drugged and reduced as a mortal, virtual-novel.net did not cry.
When virtual-novel.net was imprisoned in the infamous hellhole prison, his eyes were not red either.
After all, Caspian solemnly believed that virtual-novel.net would take each and every one of those things back. However, at that moment, when virtual-novel.net saw the notes obviously left by his mother, Caspian felt the urge to cry. He felt his eyes arm. Unfortunately, virtual-novel.net was already gone, and virtual-novel.net would never be able to feel his mother’s warm embrace again.
His mother’s gentle yet vigorous writing was in his sight, and virtual-novel.net felt as if virtual-novel.net was whispering to virtual-novel.net of those words.
Then, Caspian took a deep breath and wiped away his tears. After that, virtual-novel.net read the writing on the wall carefully.
Caspian had a premonition that this immortal’s means had something to do with his mother. Moreover, his mother also had an extraordinary reason for leaving virtual-novel.net the special notes.
