Chapter 139 - Friendship
The Genius Mage
After Hera explained everything that had happened to them, her pretty little face was filled with disbelief.
âI didnât expect you guys to have experienced so much. Compared to you guys, what Iâve experienced is nothing.â Hera lowered her head, her face filled with frustration.
When she had just teleported to the forest and realized that she had gotten separated from Audrey and the others, she had actually been very flustered.
This had caused her to wander around the entire forest, trying to find her teammates. In the end, she realized that she had only been wandering around in the same spot for two days.
Moreover, Hera had encountered two groups of people along the way. Fortunately, she had hidden fast enough. Otherwise, if she had been discovered, it was very likely that a battle would have been unavoidable.
âBut it doesnât matter now. Since weâre already together, we can completely relax.â Audrey smiled. âHera, welcome back.â
Hera raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes and nodded in agreement.
At this moment, she suddenly saw the red mark on Audreyâs neck and hurriedly asked, âAudrey, whatâs going on with your neck? Could it be that youâ¦â
Audrey shook her head. âItâs fine. Itâs over.â
Kate stood by the side and watched this scene. He really wanted to care about Audrey, but because of Heraâs existence, the two girls seemed to form a perfect barrier between them. They did not have their own status at all.
He was Audreyâs best friend who had grown up with her. Even if people cared about Audrey, he should be the one to do it.
The more Kate thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. In the end, he opened his mouth and interrupted their reminiscence.
âAudrey, although it might be inappropriate to suddenly say this, Jill is still in the cave of the stone beast. When the Garuda came, it caused too much of an impact in the vicinity. Iâm very afraid that Jill willâ¦â
Only after hearing his words did Audrey realize how serious a mistake she had made.
She had actually left her teammate alone in the cave. No matter what, it was extremely inappropriate.
âAlright.â Audrey stood up and patted the dust on the corner of her skirt. âLetâs go find Jill now and start working hard for the token!â
Everyone agreed.
At the same time, Lance, who was far away in Spark City, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
He immediately stood up and looked in the direction of the forest. Unfortunately, he was too far away and could not see anything.
However, the sudden throbbing in his heart made him worry uncontrollably.
âCity lord, did something happen?â Shadowless Ghost Hand noticed Lanceâs strange behavior.
Lance hesitated for a moment, he shook his head. âNo, maybe itâs just my imagination. You should know that when the trial began, I gave Audrey a jade pendant. That jade pendant can protect her safety, but just now, that jade pendant seemed to tremble violentlyâ¦â
Shadowless Ghost Handâs eyes turned cold. âDid something happen? Do you need me to go over and take a look?â
âNo, thereâs no need,â Lance rejected. âAfter all, this is the training of the Templar Knights. Itâs not fair for us to interfere. Now, we can only rely on Audrey.â
He looked up at the blue sky not far away and sighed slowly.
âAudrey, I hope you will not disappoint me and successfully enter the Templar Knights,â Lance thought.
In the forest, after Audrey and the others found Jill, they discovered that Jill was with another group of people.
Coincidentally, that group of people was Aliceâs group.
âOh my god, how did you find this place? Why havenât I sensed your auras for such a long time?â Alice cried out in surprise and quickly went forward to welcome them.
The girl standing at the front was called Kurt. She was on good terms with Alice. The two girls immediately hugged each other after meeting each other, as if they cherished each other very much.
âAlice, you donât know how long weâve been looking for you.â Kurt looked troubled.
Logically speaking, teammates all had basic auras and kept in touch. As long as they emitted the same aura, they would be able to determine where their teammates were.
However, the strangest thing was that they could not sense where their teammates were at all.
It was not until a moment ago that their aura recovered, so they followed the aura left behind in the air to find this place.
After meeting Jill, who was resting here, Jill explained to them what had happened here. The other party also expressed their full understanding, so the two teams coexisted peacefully here, waiting for their return.
âI really have to thank Audrey for this time. If it werenât for Audrey, I would have died in an unknown corner by now.â Alice smiled bitterly.
In fact, she still regretted it even now. If she had known that Audrey was such a helpful person, she would never have caused any unhappiness between the two of them in the beginning.
It was also because of that incident that Alice felt very guilty towards Audrey and had been looking for an opportunity to apologize.
Unfortunately, there was not any suitable opportunity.
Kurt looked at Alice. As Aliceâs friend for many years, she naturally knew what Alice was thinking.
Thus, she said directly.
âAlice, if you really canât let go of it, you should apologize. After all, this is beneficial to all of us.â
