Chapter 52: Chapter 50 Opportunity? Fairy

Chapter 52 -50 Opportunity? Fairy

At the dining table, Lucien glanced at the wine glass before him.

At that moment, floating in the swaying liquid was a blue “rabbit” about the size of an adult’s thumb, which seemed to be utterly intoxicated by the rich wine, blissfully drunk, and completely unaware of the outside dangers.

This was the Little Fairy described by Bennett.

After quietly spending one point of esteemed value to thoroughly examine it and making sure there were no issues, Lucien didn’t hesitate, picked up the wine glass, gently swirled the liquid a couple of times, and then swallowed the wine along with the Little Fairy inside his mouth.

Upon the first chew, a shrill scream emanated from his mouth, and he could even feel the struggle of the Little Fairy’s body.

But soon, Lucien felt the Little Fairy in his mouth dissolve with the rest of the liquid into his throat.

Before long, Lucien experienced a slight cool sensation surging into his Spirit Sea, and as this coolness filled him, his spiritual power seemed to momentarily become more active, undergoing a slight improvement.

With the activation of his spiritual power, Lucien felt a pleasant sensation spreading from the crown of his head, all the way down to his toes, as if he was about to float up. Although it lasted only a moment, it made him shiver all over, his face unconsciously expressing enjoyment.

At this time, Bennett too, smilingly picked up his glass, swallowed the Little Fairy inside, squinted his eyes as if relishing the moment.

Meanwhile, Lilia didn’t indulge in the Little Fairy, but instead gently pushed her wine glass forward, then looked at Bennett. “Bennett, I think we should get to the matter at hand. If we can complete this mission and come back alive, it would be much more meaningful than enjoying this Little Fairy.”

Lucien, on the other side, also slightly opened his eyes and perked his ears, carefully observing Bennett, who still maintained a warm smile.

“The task ahead and the current enjoyment are not in conflict, Lilia,” Bennett raised his glass, leisurely finished the remaining half after a sip, and then set down the glass while sitting up a bit straighter.

“This mission is dangerous, but if we can work together with sincerity, there’s still hope that we’ll all survive and accomplish the mission…” Bennett said with a smile, starting to try to take the lead of this temporary team.

However, both Lucien and Lilia didn’t show any substantial reaction to Bennett’s words but quietly waited for him to reveal some more specific details.

“I have received some information from within my family,” Bennett said, pausing for a moment.

A thought struck Lucien.

The Wizard Heli, who had previously gone to Kosai Island for investigation, was a Formal Wizard of the Boen Family.

And as one of the youngest Third-level Wizard Apprentices within the Boen Family, Bennett must also be valued by his family, and it was highly likely that he had obtained some extremely valuable information.

“The unknown forces on Kosai Island have connections with the Fairy Clan,” Bennett said with a smile, seemingly confident.

But anger raged within his heart. He had already begun to be marginalized within the Boen Family, and this intelligence had not come from inside the family. Instead, he had obtained it himself at great cost.

“If my deduction is right, this mission is my best chance!” Bennett howled internally, but he did not show this wild side of himself at the time.

Combining what he had seen and learned within the family, he vaguely sensed that behind this dangerous mission lay an opportunity that could change his destiny.

However, Bennett chose not to share his actual conjecture but instead looked at Lucien and Lilia with a smile.

“The Fairy Clan?” Lucien quickly recalled the basic intelligence information about the Fairy Clan.

But the fairies that Bennett was talking about were different from the Little Fairy they had just feasted on; these were a practical Wisdom Species like humans and even surpassed humans in innate racial capabilities.

For instance, Flower Spirits or Tree Spirits, common within the Fairy Clan, each are born with at least the Talent of a Level 3 human, live up to 500 years, and possess the inherent witchcraft talents of the Fairy Clan.

Some of the more powerful and rare Fairy species can even become Formal Wizards solely through their Racial Talent.

Take, for example, the Great Fairies, whose members possess a Talent no weaker than a fifth-level human capability, and their spiritual power grows naturally with age. Even without promotion, they live up to 1000 years, a lifespan that even surpasses many human Formal Wizards.

And once they reach maturity, Great Fairies naturally ascend to Formal Wizards and may awaken unique witchcraft talents specific to their race, which can place them above the average among other Formal Wizards solely based on their racial witchcraft.

Of course, the Fairy Clan is much rarer than humans and by nature, they are timid. They mostly live in remote wilderness areas, rarely interacting with humans, let alone causing conflicts with human Wizards.

“Fairies?” Lilia looked at Bennett with a frown, skepticism in her eyes.

After all, it was extremely rare and uncommon for such a timid and scarce species like fairies to cause trouble.

Furthermore, an important point was that the Fairy Clan’s extended lifespans made them highly coveted by other wizards, with some even resorting to parasitic methods or transferring their consciousness into fairy bodies as a way to extend their lives.

Moreover, for certain specific experiments, using fairies as subjects can yield better results.

This also leads to the preciousness of fairies; the market value of a common live Tree Spirit in the slave market might even exceed that of an ordinary Third-level Wizard Apprentice slave. This is attractive even to Formal Wizards.

If fairies indeed existed on Kosai Island, then Wizard Heli, who had initially gone there to investigate, would not have refused to stay on the island. After all, capturing fairies in large numbers would be a considerable income for a Formal Wizard, and it wouldn’t be left to the three unlucky ones chosen to scavenge.

“Yes, fairies, and judging by the traces left by the Talent witchcraft, it should be the Wood Spirits of the Fairy Clan. If we go into further detail, it should be the Rontgen Clan of the Wood Spirits,” Bennett said, nodding with a smile, seemingly unaware of the skepticism in Lilia’s eyes.
