Chapter 873 Do You Take Me For A Fool (Part 1)
"When will you take me there?" Anastasia asked in a bored voice. She was still in ric''s hidden realm and was feeding bread to the fishes that were in the small pond.
*Sigh* ric, who was sitting under a tree with his eyes closed sighed and said in a helpless voice.
"I already told you we will go there tomorrow. Now, can you stop bothering me so that I can focus on my work?"
"What are you talking about, old man? You''re just sleeping there, but you have the nerve to say that you''re working," Anastasia said with a sneer on her face.
ric''s mouth couldn''t help but twitch when he heard Anastasia call him an old man.
''She is as old as the world itself, but she''s calling me old,'' ric thought inwardly, feeling like kicking her out of his hidden realm.
Suddenly, ric felt a gaze on him and saw Anastasia looking at him with cold eyes. "You''re thinking something rude about me, right?" N?v(el)B\\jnn
ric shuddered when he saw Anastasia''s cold eyes and immediately shook his head.
''Is this what you call woman''s instincts?'' He thought and quickly changed the subject.
"I''m not sleeping. I''m having a meeting with the governors of my forest."
"Governors of the forest?" Anastasia raised an eyebrow and looked at ric with a weird look on her face. "Does thiswless ce also have governors?"
ric''s mouth once again twitched when Anastasia called his forestwless, but he was toozy to exin it to her. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked in a curious tone.
"By the way, you left the shadow realm with less than half of your power. Aren''t you afraid Akasha will try to do something if she finds out about you?"
Anastasia''s expression turned icy cold when she heard ric and a look of hatred shed in her eyes.
"She hasn''t given up yet?" She asked in a cold voice.
"Yeah, she''s still obsessed with her idea of using you," ric said when he heard her.
Anastasia sneered upon hearing ric. "In the past, she seeded only because I never thought she would betray me. But now I am different from before. If she dares toe in front of me again, I don''t mind cutting off her snake tail."
ric shook his head upon hearing Anastasia, feeling that this matter was quite troublesome. "Are you confident in winning against her if you use your full power?"
"Has her strength increased in the past few thousand years?" Anastasia didn''t answer immediately but instead asked.
"Hmmm..." ric rubbed his chin upon hearing Anastasia and said after thinking for a few seconds, "I met her around six hundred years ago. At that time, I didn''t feel she had gotten stronger."
"If she''s the same as before, then I should be able to take her down in less than five minutes," Anastasia said in a confidence-filled voice.
"What!..." ric was shocked when he heard Anastasia and looked at her with his eyes wide open. "Yo-you are joking, right?"
Anastasia just smiled when she saw Alraic''s shocked face, but the confidence-filled look on her face didn''t waver.
Seeing the smile on Anastasia''s face, ric knew that she wasn''t joking and the shock he was feeling increased even more.
"Ho-how did you be so strong?"
"Well... That''s a secret," Anastasia said with a wide grin on her face.
ric felt like pping Anastasia when he saw the wide grin on her face, but he was already very old, so he didn''t lose hisposure in front of her childish provocation. Although the person who was doing the childish act was as old as the world itself.
"You are once again thinking something rude, right?"
ric started to sweat when he heard Anastasia and he once again tried to change the subject.
"What are you nning to do with Eldrakar?"
"Eldrakar?" Anastasia looked at him in confusion. "Who is that?"
ric was speechless when he saw Anastasia''s confused expression and didn''t know what to say.
"You forgot about the current Emperor of Dragons."
"Current emperor of dragons?" Anastasia rubbed her chin and tried to search her memories.
"Oh! Are you talking about that stupid void goblin?"
''He is a void dragon, not a void goblin.''
ric once again sighed and felt like the more he talked with Anastasia, the more his IQ was dropping.
"Yes, that void goblin. What are you nning to do with him?"
"Hmmm... I am not nning to do anything," Anastasia said and shrugged her shoulders.
"Not nning to do anything? What do you mean?"
"I meant what I said. As long as that Void Goblin doesn''t do anything against me, I won''t bother myself with him."
ric looked at Anastasia for a few seconds before he shook his head.
"You have changed, huh," He said with a gentle smile on his face and looked at Anastasia as if a father looking at her daughter who finally grew up.
Seeing the gentle smile on ric''s face, Anastasia got goosebumps and looked at him cautiously.
"What are you nning, old man?"
The gentle smile on ric''s face nearly broke when he saw Anastasia''s cautious look and he felt like drowning her in the pond.
As they were talking, a portal suddenly appeared in front of ric and a man wearing something akin to a white kimono walked out of it. The man had eight fox tails on his back, and the aura around him indicated he was a Peak Rank Four monster.
ric raised an eyebrow when he saw the eight-tailed fox and asked in a calm voice, "What''s wrong, Haruto?"
The eight-tailed fox bowed his head in front of ric and said respectfully, "Father, Leopold is here and is asking to meet you."
"Leopold..." ric narrowed his eyes upon hearing Haruto and wondered why Leopold came here to meet him without informing him beforehand. He nced at Anastasia, who didn''t show any expression after hearing Haruto and after thinking for a moment, decided to meet him.
"All right, bring him here."
Haruto bowed his head hearing ric and disappeared from the hidden realm.
Once Haruto disappeared, ric looked at Anastasia, who was feeding the fishes and sighed inwardly. "I hope nothing will happen."
