Chapter 1329 Where is my master?

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Liam did not linger around in the city anymore. After Shayen left, Rey, Madan, and Lan Deming split up to gather more information and meanwhile, Liam started heading back to a particular spot he had come across, one that was relatively rich in nether.

It was a small cave inside a mountain and the weird part was both outside the mountain and in the surrounding area there was simply no nether in the air. The energy-rich pocket was unnaturally present in just that single spot.

Liam's mind wandered as to why this could be but he quickly refocussed. While he had a lot of questions and confusions in his head, starting with why the hell were they in this big mess, he knew that there was really only one thing that truly bugged him.

His failure with the Myriad Constellations Technique.

Perhaps if he said this out loud to Rey, Madan, or Lan Deming, they might want to kill him but right at this moment, he couldn't care less about being imprisoned in this weird creature. He was still hung up on his abrupt departure from the Spire. He did not expect to be kicked out like this.

Liam settled in the cave cross-legged and cleared his mind. He just needed a quiet place to train and this place was just as good as anything else. For now. He then started with the technique, taking it from the top, and attempting the whole thing all over again.

"Ah. we are here. Back home again. But… I have to tell you my Lord, I am already starting to miss Nymphomania. There is something in the air in that place that makes it so special. Maybe we should make this a yearly tradition, us five men heading over and relaxing a bit, what do you-" Eldrin suddenly stopped talking. "Huh?" He turned around to see that for some reason he was standing all alone by himself. Wait, no that's not right. He could detect… He looked down to see an angry fox face glaring at him. "Where is my master?"

"Ummm…"

"I am asking you, you long-eared leech."

"Ah…" Eldrin was speechless. He looked at the angry fox and the other three legendary beasts which had silently popped up near him. However, there was no sign of any human being. What the hell was going on?

Wait, even the two nymphs whom he had brought here were missing. Fuck! Where did they all go? If something happened to them, then why was he alone fine? Fuck! Fuck! He had a feeling he was going to be in deep shit real soon.

"I don't know! I really don't know!" Eldrin threw his hands up in the air and started explaining in a panic. "We all teleported here together. I didn't do anything. I swear. They should be here. I can't think of any reason why they are not. Maybe they were teleported somewhere closeby?"

Eldrin's mind raced as he tried to make sense of the situation, his heart pounding in his chest. The legendary beasts stared at him, their gazes varying from confused to outright threatening. He knew he had to act fast or risk becoming the target of their frustration and anger.

"Listen, I... I'll try to locate them. Maybe there's some interference or... or something went wrong with the teleportation. It's unusual, but not unheard of in the myriad realms," Eldrin stuttered, trying to sound confident despite the fear gnawing at him.

The fox, still glaring, finally spoke, "Do it quickly. If harm has come to my master because of your incompetence, I will make you regret being born."

Eldrin nodded hastily, sweat beading on his forehead. He quickly started to cast a series of detection spells. Obviously, it was only natural for him to have stuck several markers of the group. Of course, for the safety of the group and now it was going to be put to good use.

However, no matter how much he tried, nothing was working. "I am trying. I am trying my very best." The elf shouted pitifully but it was clear that he was failing. Luna snapped at him with a low growl and then approached him in an exceedingly obvious threatening manner.

"Where is my master?" She asked again and the elf could only look on helplessly. His usual bag of tricks and smooth talk seemed worthless in the face of the genuine distress and danger he now faced. Eldrin had always prided himself on his ability to navigate through tricky situations with ease, but this was something entirely different.

"I... I really don't know," Eldrin admitted, his voice barely above a whisper. "But I promise, I will find out. I'll do whatever it takes."

The next second the fox blurred and she was no longer there. Along with her, the other legendary beasts were all gone, leaving behind only Eldrin in the middle of nowhere.

"Hey, wait." The elf called out but it was useless. The fox had already teleported. "Fuck. I was going to say I could still faintly feel one of the others…" He scratched his head and then hurriedly ran in the direction where he felt the marker.

"Dante was it? The alchemy slave?" Eldrin knew that this was in no way going to help the situation but there was nothing else he could do. The fact that none of his tags worked meant that Liam and the others never got teleported in the first place.

Moreover, the two nymphs were also missing. They had promised him big things if he got them out of that world and now they were also gone. What the hell was happening?

Eldrin felt cold sweat drench his back as he thought about all the people he had to answer. Especially the two wives. Fuck. They were going to skin him alive and then kill him, that is if the fox did not kill him first. Why did all bad things have to happen to him?

Eldrin smiled bitterly. The worst part was that… he was pretty sure wherever that bastard was he was lucking it out right this instance. "Liam, where the hell are you?"
