Chapter 510: Night Caracal

The Tulip Palace was one of the eight underwater palaces built by Duons to accommodate their Gods.
Both Duons and Dugons greatly respected their holy grounds and rarely came to them so as not to bother their Gods. For this reason, the Tulip Palace had not welcomed visitors for countless years, until today.
Led by Shan, Angor’s group traveled through great distances and finally reached a bright palace surrounded by gigantic seaweeds.
“This is the place,” Shan murmured as she looked around while feeling uncertain about her words. “Huh… I can’t see those witches.”
The Tulip Palace was protected behind an energy barrier that kept water away. There were six flame pillars built just outside the structure that illuminated the area, causing it to be as bright as day.
Due to the decent radiance, they could observe the dazzling coral decorations without any trouble.
“We got away through the backdoor because the witches were watching the front. But… did they leave already?” Shan looked really worried. “Oh no! I think they got Shiliew!”
“Four?” Shan was surprised by this. “There was Shiliew and two witches… Did Jebra send reinforcement?!”
“Perhaps…” Keely’s voice was getting violent again. “That son of a stink fish can use any dirty trick you can think of. Come, Luna can take us to them.”
When Jebra’s name was mentioned, Keely quickly grew excited again and left Tulip Palace on her own.
Angor thought and decided not to tell them about the teleportation array for now. They wouldn’t need to use it any time soon.
Following Luna, they went on their way again, during which they fended off several more groups of raiders until they finally caught up with the one who left the bloodstains.
“There are two Meraid’s Swords somewhere 40 kilometers ahead of us. Luna said that blood smell also came from there,” Keely warned.
“Those two witches, no doubt!” Shan cursed.
Both Angor and Keely frowned when they saw who they were after.
Shiliew wasn’t here.
Angor and Keely knew well about the two individuals floating not far from them.
“Angor and… Keely?” A woman wearing flowers and tree vines all over her body raised an eyebrow as she spoke, “Are you perhaps trying to get this?” She showed them a silver Meriad’s Sword in her hand.
She spoke in a casual tone, but she was seriously preparing for all kinds of countermeasures, especially against Angor. Angor had proved his ability by surviving from the giant swarm of flying fish as well as that Lord of Tentacles.
“Sinehowze and Carveline…” Angor muttered their names. When Shan described how the two witches looked “old, wrinkled, and ugly”, he never thought Shan was referring to these two women.
“There they are! They trapped us inside Tulip Palace!” Shan yelled out.
“Oh, it’s you?” Sinehowze looked at Shan. “We were kind enough to let you and the other woman go, and you came looking for trouble instead? Wait, so you actually managed to get Angor and Keely as your bodyguards?”
While speaking, Sinehowze hid one hand behind her back and did a series of gestures. Several streams of smoke appeared from her palm.
Carveline was wearing a blue armored skirt this time. She moved in front of Sinehowze, pretending to protect her, but her true intention was to conceal Sinehowze’s movement.
Shan didn’t bother with answering Sinehowze’s question. “Where did you take Shiliew?”
“Shiliew? That blue-haired girl from earlier?” Sinehowze shook her head. “No idea, sorry!” Then she looked at Angor. “Did you come to us just because of this Shiliew woman?”
Keely interrupted Angor’s response by laughing frantically. “Stop wasting time. By selling your conscience to Jebra, you’ve become his slaves, his dogs! I’ll get you and everything else can wait!”
From Keely’s body, countless embers flooded toward Sinehowze and Carveline’s position.
