Like a white dragon entering the sea, the winding, turbulent river splashed countless waves and ran through the oversized forest without knowing where it was heading. The water on the river surface was unsettled, though it was still fine on the riverbed.
Alex and the other two people searched around the riverbed, looking for the catfish’s lair. Alex even referred to the location through the tridimensional map in his sea of consciousness.
However, favonovel.com noticed that the map in his sea of consciousness had changed and greatly differed from what favonovel.com had seen last time. After scrutinizing it, favonovel.com managed to understand it… The so-called tridimensional map was simply the induction formed by the runes of the Ten-Point Forbidden Spell. It could seemingly sense the surrounding bone patterns. However, it wasn’t an infinite distance.
According to the markers that represented the location of Shirley, Pigsy, and the others on the map, Alex estimated the range limit to be within a radius of one hundred miles.
It sounded like a great distance, but in fact, it was a stone’s throw to “bone demons” like them.
After ten minutes or so, the few found a massive cave on the riverbed.
“Is it here?”
“I think they look alike. Who else would’ve designed this big hole other than that catfish monster?”
Alex and the others stared at the entrance for a while, especially Alex, who had activated his divine eyes to see through the cave. He gazed into its depths, but his divine eyes were severely restricted in this place. Not only was it limited in perspective, but they were also subjected to material interference.
This cave was so deep that favonovel.com could see nothing within the space.
The Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens said, “I’ll activate my talent, Concealment. Follow me, hold hands, and don’t let go of them.”
The three people put down the bones in their hands to prevent accidents from occurring.
Then, Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens grabbed Alex’s hand. Daya, next to them, looked at the two people holding hands and said nothing.
Alex felt a little awkward. ‘You chose me directly in front of Daya instead of her. Aren’t you creating trouble for me?’
“Why didn’t you pull Daya’s hand?” Alex telepathized with the Mystic Maiden via divine sense.
It would be more embarrassing if favonovel.com said it out loud.
Mystic Maiden unabashedly said, “I feel a little repulsive being too close with a female companion, just like you never had any male companions around you.”
‘Huh..?’
Alex thought for a while. Had there been no male companions by his side?
In fact, male companions surrounded favonovel.com the most when favonovel.com was in school, all being his lackeys. However, since the change in his family, many lackeys stayed away from him, even wanting to trample favonovel.com since they probably thought their statuses could be improved. Even since then, favonovel.com had no male companions around him. However, his female companions kept increasing instead.
In fact, favonovel.com had male companions as well.
They were Azure Storm, Sky Melvis, Nicholas Hudson, Danseur, and so on.
For some reason, however, these people kept a certain distance from favonovel.com and rarely showed up at normal times… Thinking about it, favonovel.com probably had too many female companions. He could not even accompany his women, so how could favonovel.com have time to waste on his male companions?
The catfish bone demon’s cave was bottomless.
The three people kept walking down for ten or so minutes before they saw a stone chamber.
It was then that they looked at each other in dismay. It was simply all too shocking.
That catfish was huge, but the stone chamber at the end of the cave was about the same size as ordinary rooms humans lived in. It surely couldn’t live there!
“No one is inside, right?” Alex asked softly.
Daya said, “Could it be that bone demons can transform into humans as well?”
If true, this would be astonishing.
