Chapter 84: Davis And Alvin’s Adventure!
Perhaps it was because Elric was in the zone, or he was just used to unknowingly blocking out the outside world, by the time Elric had snapped out of it, it was already nightfall.
Dropping his pen, Elric looked at the messy desk in front of him with a wry smile on his face
"Haha it seems I kinda got a bit carried away"
Giving an embarra.s.sed laugh, Elric looked at his desk suddenly wondering where to start.
At this time, different notes, skins, spilt ink, and parchments could be seen sprawled over on both the desk and floor, obvious he had unknowingly knocked some of them down as he was writing
Sighing slightly, Elric had no choice but to pick everything up and arrange them one by one.
Thankfully, none of the ink had poured in the parchments or books thus preserving their content, and as for the now stained desk? Elric had no other choice but to find a way to either clean off the ink or cover it up
After all, the headmasters office can"t be found looking like a tornado and a bunch of toddlers had a birthday party in it
Thinking of the weird gazes he would get once he invited students in, Elric put away his book and started cleaning
Lucky for him, although the mess looked a lot, but having started Elric suddenly thought of the saying, "looks can be deceiving"
With the putting away of the first paper to the arrangements of the book, before he knew it, Elric had completely tidied up his office leaving only a few blotches of ink showing that a big mess once occurred here
*Knock-knock-knock*
Due to the fact that Elric entered a trance or enlightened state as he wrote down his plans for the school, now that the time had pa.s.sed, Elric couldn"t remember most of what he wrote down
However, now that he wanted to pick up the book and scan through it, a knock from outside suddenly interrupted him
*Knock-knock-knock*
Hearing this knock again, Elric could help but wonder who it was after all according to his orders, most if not all students should be in their dorm preparing for bed by now,
Remember this, without too much hesitation Elric decided to drop his book for now and see who it was
"Come in" Said Elric as he shouted towards the door
As soon as Elric said that, whoever was at the end must have clearly heard him as immediately he said it, the door began to open
With a slight creaking sound, watching the door open curiosity glowed in Elric eyes as he wondered who it was
Unfortunately, after the door was completely open, a disappointed expression couldn"t help appearing on his face
Looking at the two figures entering his office, Elric sighed disappointedly
Unlike the mystery person he was expecting, the people who entered his office were Davis and Alvin, and judging from the parchment he saw in Alvin"s right hand, Elric could tell they just came from the reconnaissance mission he sent them on
"Young master, we"re back!"
Holding the parchment in his hand, Davis couldn"t wait to give it to Elric, however unlike what he expected Elric suddenly stopped him
"Relax Davis, both you and Alvin just came back"
"Take a seat, why don"t you and Alvin explain what both of you encountered before giving me the map "
Pointing towards two seats in front of his desk, Elric suddenly had an Idea
*Although both of you aren"t what I was expecting, however since you are here why don"t you tell me something interesting* .
Having been cooped up all day, Elric, although used to it, couldn"t help feeling bored. That"s why he was so excited when he heard the knock, unfortunately the person at the door wasn"t anything unexpected, rather it was two people he was expecting
Thankfully, given the fact that they both just went to explore outside, they probably should have one or two interesting adventures to tell him. freeweb(n)ovel
So with this in mind, Elric decided to ask both of them about their experiences before collecting the map
Lucky, it seemed Elric was right, because although confused, neither Davis nor Alvin rejected Elric"s order rather, they both started telling him everything they experienced
According to Davis, not long after they left the area, they encountered another tribe not too far from hear
However, unlike the people current primitives they met at the beginning, it seemed that those people practised a matriarchy as women were more than men there, and it looked like a few of the women were coming back from a hunt as they carried pig beasts of almost 2 metres on their shoulders
Listening to them say this, Elric couldn"t help but be curious about their current situation because according to Davis they were just coming back from a hunt with loads of meat
This could only mean two things, one they had mastered a superb hunting technique, and another they possessed enough strength to go hunt and come back successfully and uninjured
Either way, they posses more strength than the primitives he turned to students yet for some reason, they who are stronger than this tribe never seemed to have attacked hear once, thinking of this Elric couldn"t help but be curious
After all, one mountain can contain two tigers, and Elric believed that saying could apply to the current situation yet there was no movement from the other side
Shaking his head, Although confused Elric decided not to think much about it.
On Davis"s side, Seeing that Elric wasn"t deep in thought anymore, both he and Alvin both continued describing all their discoveries during the trip to Elric
From the tribes they saw, to the beasts they encountered, the more they talked the brighter Elric"s eyes shone as he could already imagine everything in his mind
With so many unknown things to explore in this new plane, Elric suddenly wanted to go out tomorrow and explore for himself, but considering the school had just been built and there are still a lot of aspects for him to take care of, Elric knew he couldn"t go yet
Slightly sighing, Elric didn"t think too much about it and continued listening to Alvin"s and Davis"s tales with relish
