Capítulo 2822: Chapter 1547: Comprehensive Upgrade and Request

The shadow was roughly the size of two palms, and before Leo Ray could react, it fluttered its wings and flew over.

The bright moonlight revealed its dense brown feathers; it was a bird-like Demon Beast somewhat resembling a supersized Oriole, delightfully chirping with crisp “chirp chirp chirp” sounds.

No need for further explanation, this was exactly the little creature hatched from a Demon Beast egg that Leo Ray stumbled upon while exploring the Inverted Gorge.

Leo Ray only felt a slight heaviness on his shoulder, as the little brown creature leapt onto it, continuing to flutter its wings while chirping even more joyfully.

“Dawn, don’t be naughty, the Lord is already very tired.”

Seeing this, Ariel Watson slightly furrowed her brows: “If you don’t behave, your late-night snack will be halved.”

“… Chirp chirp.”

The little creature clearly understood Ariel Watson’s words, and its small furry head drooped immediately.

“No harm done, I’ve been so busy lately that I almost forgot about this little one.”

Leo Ray gently stroked the brown feathers of the creature, smiling lightly.

Compared to when it was just hatched, the little creature’s feathers were noticeably much smoother, and its size had doubled, but strangely, its weight didn’t significantly change.

As for “Dawn,” it was the name Ariel Watson gave the little creature, and Leo Ray thought it was quite fitting, so they settled on it.

Lately, Ariel Watson had been taking good care of the little creature, reportedly eating and sleeping well; whenever Leo Ray returned, it was almost always sound asleep in its nest, leading to him nearly forgetting its existence.

“The Lord is always so gentle.”

Upon hearing this, Ariel Watson smiled and nodded, speaking to the little creature: “Dawn, since the Lord said so, you can be naughty just once, but you can’t be so reckless on ordinary days, understand?”

“Chirp!”

The little creature chirped happily once and started fluttering again.

Leo Ray smiled slightly, casually opened the creature’s attribute column, which still revealed “???” without any clues about its species.

“Well, just as I thought at the time. Although this little creature looks ordinary, appearing gray and dull, even if it’s just an unknown ordinary Demon Beast, it still adds a splash of color to the thorny path ahead.”

With this thought, Leo Ray and Ariel Watson proceeded into the Gate of the Castle.

Back in the room, Leo Ray first freshened up and then recounted the thrilling events of the banquet to Ariel Watson, who listened both captivated and worried.

Especially upon hearing that Leo Ray succeeded in subduing the Half-Titan and Stone Giant, Ariel Watson excitedly jumped up, shedding the demeanor of a Queen of Coldflame City.

Throughout this, the little creature stayed by Leo Ray and Ariel Watson’s side, behaving extremely well without causing any more trouble.

“By the way, how is the deployment going?”

Seeing the little creature fall asleep after gulping down a large bowl of food, Leo Ray asked Ariel Watson again.

Although Gideon Black and the other nine Tier 5 peak main force subordinates had already started advancing in rank, Ariel Watson was carrying heavy responsibilities, requiring thorough arrangements for her to advance with peace of mind.

“It’s all been discussed with Asher Porter, Linda, Adams, Tran, and others, ensuring they will keep the rear secure for the Lord during the subordinates’ advancements.”

Ariel Watson nodded firmly, a glimmer of expectation shining in her eyes: “Once the subordinates successfully advance, I can better assist the Lord.”

With that said, Ariel Watson felt a dreamy sensation, as the opportunity to step into the Tier 6 hall was something she never dared imagine before meeting Leo Ray.

Though excited, Ariel Watson’s pale face showed some unease; even with ten types of auxiliary Tier 6 Magic Potions and Magic Scrolls prepared by Leo Ray, advancing to Tier 6 was not an easy path.

“My dear Majesty the Queen, who aids me in governing the entire Human Clan, how could you be troubled by this matter?”

Leo Ray quickly sensed Ariel Watson’s unease and patted her head.

“The Lord is quite right, I certainly won’t disappoint the Lord!”

Ariel Watson took a deep breath, her sparkling eyes shifting from flickering to unwavering determination.

“Well, today should come to an end.”

Looking at Dawn sound asleep in its nest, Leo Ray took Ariel Watson’s hand.

…

Early next day, Leo Ray woke up early as usual, but Ariel Watson was already dressed neatly, completing her final preparations before advancing.

“Sorry, things have been too hectic lately, I can’t accompany you in advancing.”

Leo Ray looked at her slender back and spoke.

“What’s the Lord saying here, how could such things distract the Lord?”

Ariel Watson clearly had already adjusted her mood, smiling gently: “Rest assured, I won’t disappoint the Lord!”

“I will have Abigail and Amelia keep an eye on you, and if anything happens, I’ll be there at the first sign.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly, refocusing on the present, organizing the day’s affairs with Mind Talk as he freshened up.
