Chapter 162: Migration ( 12 )
"Can you tell me more about this night creature? Its name, appearance, powers?" he inquired.
He thought that if he could get the name, he might be able to use the system to analyze his current situation more effectively.
Dragun sighed deeply and looked at Rowan with concern. "Do you really want to know about this creature?"
"Of course, why not?"
"Hmm," Dragun nodded briefly and began. "The creature is known as the Dream Weaver. It has existed in this world since its creation, according to legends. It\'s neither a monster nor a demonic beast, nor human either."
"Although the Dream Weaver has been existing for millennia, not much is known about it, not even its appearance is clear. Nothing about it is clear except its existence."
Dragun continued—he told Rowan that many mages believe the Dream Weaver was part of the ancient soul mages who ascended and became a lifeform of their own. He also told Rowan so many mysterious stories about it.
But the more Dragun narrated, the more confused Rowan became. The stories were filled with contradictions and enigmas, making it hard for him to grasp the true nature of the Dream Weaver.
"How are you sure it\'s the Dream Weaver\'s handiwork if no one has seen it and no one truly understands it?"
"The Dream Weaver is the only existence that pulls stunts like these," Dragun began and explained everything to Rowan.
Only after hearing his explanation did Rowan believe.
But this made him even more worried about what would become the fate of Liara and Ren. They are both people he is pretty close with and people that held much importance in his territory.
"If the Dream Weaver wanted those two dead, they would\'ve been dead the moment it set its eyes on them. Since they are alive, it means it has other tasks for them, and we have to watch out keenly."
"Do not even think of killing it. It\'s immortal and unkillable, and the simple thought of killing it might set a death target on your head," Dragun warned.
Rowan nodded his head.
He didn\'t have anything against the Dream Weaver as long as it didn\'t mess with the life and health of his people.
After both of them were done discussing, Dragun went back inside and requested to see Ren\'s workplace.
Maryanne stood up and took them to the room Ren utilized in carrying out his herbal practice.
Dragun and Rowan did not have to search the room as the wooden bowl containing the dream mixture was still on the work table.
Dragun did the same test he did at Winterseed.
"These ones also have high purity," Dragun muttered to himself as he stored the dream mixture.
Rowan was curious and couldn\'t help but ask, "I am curious, what use do you have for the dream liquid? You seem so interested in obtaining it."
"I need more of these for the brewing of one of the greatest potions! It will aid not just me but the village and the magic world together!" Dragun explained with so much determination and excitement in his voice.
"Hmm." Rowan nodded.
After they were done at Ren\'s place.
Rowan took Dragun to the farms and showed him the livestock.
"Wow, they are taking extremely good care of the livestock for a place this little and underdeveloped," Dragun noted while observing the farm.
Rowan proceeded to tell him of his plan to take a large number of young animals home for rearing.
"That is not a problem. I need twenty-four hours to set the formation and make other preparations," Dragun excused himself.
Rowan was not in a hurry to leave, so it wasn\'t that much of a problem to him. In fact, he looked forward to spending the extra time exploring the village further and perhaps deepening his understanding of the local customs and people.
For now, he decided to relax and wait for Dragun to conclude his preparation.

Wishiros Country
Aurorhaven Kingdom
Aurorhaven is the name of the central kingdom of Wishiros country, known for its impressive military might.
The Lord of Aurorhaven is mostly addressed as the top powerhouse of Wishiros due to his strength and power to dominate his foes.
About ninety percent of the top organizations, except the underground ones, in Wishiros are under his control.
In the middle of Aurorhaven Kingdom exists the CASTLE OF MIGHT, the home of the great leader of Wishiros. It\'s the safest and most feared place in the country and part of the top ten in the continent.
Inside a big and beautiful hall in the Castle of Might, two figures could be seen sitting and discussing with each other.
One was sitting on a golden and red throne, he was a very handsome middle-aged man with short and bright red hair with blue eyes, adorned in a beautiful robe that revealed his high nobility.
Sitting casually not too far away from him was D\'andre. His long white hair was tied in a ponytail as usual and his face shone gorgeously.
Some of the maids standing in the hall could not take their eyes off him. A few of the guards also found him interesting.
"I still won\'t believe your crap, D\'andre," the one on the throne let out with a frown.
"Haha, Mario, my friend, even in the real world of Emperor\'s Domain, your superiority complex as Venerable Mario still hasn\'t changed. You always find it difficult to believe others might be better than you," D\'andre laughed heartily.
Mario snorted, "Superiority complex, my foot. Every other transmigrator in this world right now would find your words unbelievable just like me. How can you claim that the lord of a mere FF-rank territory has more wealth than lords of E and even D-rank territories?"
"Why would I lie about something like that? I am telling you the truth. This guy is stinking rich in evolution points, you should be there to see the way he spent millions of evolution points without a single change of expression," D\'andre responded to Mario.
Mario still refused to believe and both of them had a little back and forth argument before coming to a conclusion.
"The Novice Territory Lord event would come up very soon. He will surely be invited. Since you and I are special guests, we will be able to see him and you\'ll get to see I am telling the truth. We can bet on it." D\'andre smirked.
"Aiit," Mario snorted and agreed.
"I am going to visit his territory very soon. I will make sure to share the shocking amount he spends this time, haha," D\'andre let out jokingly.
Both of them had a little discussion for a few minutes before D\'andre left.
Mario sat down in his throne and stared at his character status featuring billions of evolution points and pretty special skills.
"How can anyone be better and richer than I? The venerable Mario, greatest player of Emperor\'s Domain, ten times E-sport award winner—that is just unbelievable." He snorted and closed his window.
He turned to one of the maids in the room. "Call my seventh wife... I need her divine mouth and hands to calm my raging heart right now."
