The Cursed Dragon and His Human Knight (Chapter Ninety-Two)
Meanwhile, Lance was also gathering information.
However, unlike Song Ning, who needed to hide, he also carried a magical tool to conceal his identity, but instead transformed into his original form and hovered in the night sky.
The miniature dragon, only about a meter tall, hovered high in the sky, its movements obscured by dark clouds, even its aura concealed. It only occasionally flapped its wings, using the wind to circle and keep track of Alpha and the others.
“I feel like the people at the temple are acting a bit strange. Don’t you think Bishop Iphis seems to not want to see us?”
Alpha didn't want to remind these guys, but since it concerned his future, he had to bring up the topic himself.
Sure enough, just as he expected, the hero was the first to scratch his head with a look of 'What are you talking about?'
"You're overthinking it, Alpha. Didn't Bishop Iphis say he's injured and can't come with us to search for the dragon's tracks?"
Alpha felt frustrated. "...You actually believed him?"
Is Iphis his father or his mother? Did this guy really believe it just because I casually mentioned it?
The hero was even more bewildered by his somewhat impulsive tone. "Of course I believe it. Isn't it said that people from the temple basically don't lie? Besides, it's normal for Bishop Iphis to get injured after purifying such a large area of land."
Alpha was furious at his stupidity. That Iphis had only cast a spell that didn't even require a staff or a chant. How could he possibly be injured?
Normally, to achieve a situation of magical backlash, it would require at least someone of bishop rank like Iphis to cast a semi-forbidden spell.
As a bishop, Ephesus is essentially the same as a high-level mage, so the conditions for magic backlash are basically the same.
Alpha glanced at the hero again, took a deep breath, and turned to find Sarah Mandy.
Sarah Mandy didn't participate in their patrol and search for clues. She was enjoying her mushroom cream soup alone in the camp when she was pleasantly surprised to see Alpha.
"You're back so early today, did you discover the dragon's tracks again?"
Alpha paused slightly, his face quickly turning pale and his expression becoming somewhat guilty.
"No, that magic is a bit too advanced for me right now. I need to rest for a few days before I can use it again, at least three days."
Sarah Mandy's joy vanished instantly. "Oh, then what are you doing back here?"
"If there's no magic, it's the same to just use your eyes to investigate, right?"
This woman didn't treat him as someone on the same level at all. Alpha could tell from Sarah Mandy's tone. He gritted his teeth, but still managed to force out a gentle smile and a hint of sorrow.
"That matter isn't urgent for now. The main thing is that I've discovered something that's more important right now."
Sarah Mandy wasn't very interested; she was only interested in the dragon now, since she could do a lot if she could capture it.
Alpha held back, took a deep breath, and slowly voiced his concerns.
"And I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I felt that when we were preparing to set off today, Bishop Iphis looked at us with a strange expression, and also..."
He moved closer to Sarah Mandy, who instinctively moved away but quickly stopped.
Damn woman, all that flirting before was just her playing with him.
Alpha gritted his teeth and swallowed his anger; he would make this woman pay the price later.
"Furthermore, Your Highness, haven't you noticed? We've been being watched by someone all night, and that person hasn't left yet."
