Chapter 1292: A dragon? A girl?
In the sky, a red lightning bolt descended near the top of a ravine.
Rebecca opened her eyes while standing on Cú Chulainn's magic circle. She had to close her eyes because Cú Chulainn was moving at an incredible velocity.
Cú Chulainn isn't listening to her. It flew according to its own instincts.
Wu Yan grabbed Rebecca so she wasn't at risk of falling off her own Pal.
"Cú Chulainn..."
Rebecca inhaled deeply. She asked her Pal.
"Why weren't you listening to me?"
"Don't blame him."
Wu Yan looked down at the chasm.
"Cú Chulainn sensed something within this ravine. That is why he acted out of the line."
"Down there?"
Rebecca looked too.
"Are we outside Fianna forest?"
"Hmm, I don't know."
Wu Yan shrugged.
"I do know there is something interesting down there."
"Me too."
Rebecca nodded.
"This is the first time Cú Chulainn disobeyed me. It must have something to do with whatever is down there."
Rebecca looked at Wu Yan. In response, he nodded.
"Let's go down."
Rebecca hesitated for a second. This is better than biting their thumbs and waiting for backup.
"Cú Chulainn!"
“Go!”
Gawoor
Her pal flapped its wings.
The Ravine wasn’t narrow so her Pal can still barely fit into the hole in the ground.
Under Rebecca’s careful guidance, they slowly descended into the chasm.
They also wrapped themselves in a protective magical coating. This prevents chaffing from the jagged rocks near the steep cliffs.
Fortunately, the ravine widened the deeper they descended. At this point, her Pal can easily navigate the chasm.
Rebecca quickened her pace.
When they were close to the bottom, they heard a high-pitched yell coming from down there.
“I am your master!”
A stunning yell echoed up.
“Har?!”
Wu Yan and Rebecca’s eyes lit up.
“It’s Ash!”
Wu Yan said.
“That’s Ash alright.”
“Cu Chulainn, down!”
“Mwuu…”
Her pal responded with a regal cry. It was the dragon’s version of salute.
“Cu chulainn?”
Rebecca was stunned to hear her dragon disobeying her once more. Wu Yan laughed while patting her shoulder.
“That thing down there is probably a higher-ranking existence than you. Don’t mind it too much.”
“Fine…”
Rebecca stored her pouty look away.
“How do we get down there?”
“Hang on!”
“Har?”
Rebecca felt puzzled.
“Look, either you hang on to me or I jump down by myself, you choose.”
Rebecca panicked for a second before subconsciously hugging Wu Yan. She realized a second too late that she was acting like a maiden in love. She blushed beet red.
Meanwhile, Wu Yan is too focused on jumping down that he didn’t notice her flustered look. He wrapped his arm around her slim waist.
The next instant, Rebecca could hear winds blowing past her ears.
Wu Yan really did jump down.
Rebecca closed her eyes while hugging Wu Yan tighter. When the winds stop, she opened her eyes.
She was on solid ground. She looked around in confusion before looking ahead.
She saw something shocking there.
Even Wu Yan didn’t expect this scene.
There is a pair of couple staring at one another. It looked like they didn’t notice the new guests.
Ash, the missing rider, is staring at a girl they have never seen before.
She looked like she was 15 at best. Her doll-like cuteness, poorly-stacked muffins, and 1.5-meter height suggested that she cannot put a curly one on the soap.
She had pink hair and lustrous porcelain skin that shone under the pale glow of the ravine.
That wasn’t the most shocking part.
She wasn’t wearing any clothes!
Yeah, she is in her birthday suit.
“Rowan! President Rebecca!”
Ash finally noticed Wu Yan and Rebecca.
“Wow.”
Rebecca exclaimed. She started busting his balls figuratively.
“We are all searching for you out there. Yet, here you are, spending your sweet time with a naked girl. Looks like I have to revise my perception of you.”
“Ash…”
Wu Yan calmly apologized.
“Sorry for budging in like this.”
Wu Yan grabbed Rebecca’s hand. He turned around to leave much to Ash’s shock.
“Wait, you’re misunderstanding me! She is my Pal! She was just born!”
“Your pal?”
Wu Yan stopped while Rebecca cast a suspicious glance in his direction.
“You’re telling me, she’s your Pal?”
“Yes!”
Ash nodded.
“I know it’s hard to believe but it’s nothing but the truth. She just came out of my crest!”
“Hey, What do you mean I was born from your crest?”
The sassy girl leered at Ash while correcting him.
“I just borrowed your body, don’t get cocky!”
Ash shrunk back while retorting in a low volume.
“I mean, why can’t I?”
“What was that?!”
The girl stared daggers into Ash.
The two saw something on the girl’s head. It looked like stumps.
“Those are…”
Rebecca said.
“A young dragon’s horn?”
“I told you! She is a dragon!”
Ash lightened up when Rebecca bought his story. He turned his head the other way while requesting help from Rebecca.
“A-anyway, President Rebecca, please help me clothe her!”
“Hah? Why do I have to wear clothes?!”
Alas, the girl didn’t take this kindly. She puffed out her chest.
“Clothes are human constructs made to hide their ugly bodies. Proud dragons don’t need clothes!”
“I don’t care. Just put on some clothes!”
Rebecca laughed as Ash fought with his Pal.
Wu Yan raised an eyebrow while watching the interaction between Ash and Eco.
