Prime Originator

Chapter 992 Returning to the Darkmoon Tribe

"The southern gate, huh?" Leon muttered.

It was so rare to hear any news from the southern gate; Leon almost forgot such a place existed.

Nevertheless, Leon was astonished to hear that there was a land of active volcanoes in the south. Considering Rachel and Ignis could train there, it must be safe to a certain degree.

Thus, Leon didn't have to worry about them.

More importantly, Grandmaster Don's disappearance after entering the Grand Surya Desert was worrisome.

"Have we sent anyone to look for Grandmaster Don and his disciple since we learned of their disappearance?" Leon inquired into the matter.

"Naturally, we have," Amelia nodded.

"However, the scorching sands and weather in the Grand Surya Desert are far too hot for just anyone to enter. As such, we haven't gained any progress in finding Grandmaster Don and his disciple."

"Makes sense. The Grand Surya Desert is one of the four Perilous Lands in the Human Domain. If anyone could freely travel through it, the land would have been conquered already," Leon inserted his opinion.

Nevertheless, that was all in the past; times have changed.

They had already conquered Extreme Misty Forest, one of the other four Perilous Lands, and even started reclaiming the northern lands.

It won't be long before they conquer the rest of the Perilous Lands.

"Anyhow, you don't need to worry about this matter," Amelia stated, causing Leon to raise an eyebrow in doubt.

"How come?" Leon asked.

"I plan to visit the Grand Surya Desert with Ignis after he returns from the south this time around," Amelia mentioned.

"As you know, the Grand Surya Desert is a scorching place. In fact, it's hotter than the land of active volcanoes in the south. Thus, it's an even better place for Fire Awakeners to train. This might have been the reason Grandmaster Don went there."

"However, since he has been gone for so long, everyone is now worried. So Ignis and I will look for Grandmaster Don and his disciple on this trip," Amelia stated.

"If you both disappear, what will happen to Old Capital's mining and forging business?" Leon asked with surprise.

"There are many more Fire and Metal Awakeners now and even more capable blacksmiths or forge masters in the empire. New Capital will still get their materials and products, with or without us," Amelia said.

"Besides, we've been toiling hard for the empire's development in the past few months. Don't you think we deserve a bit of a break?"

"I suppose you both do," Leon replied with a wry smile.

"Well, that's that," Amelia concluded the topic with a smile before asking slyly, "More importantly, you mentioned gifts? Are you planning to gift more herbal tea leaves?"

"Of course not. How can the herbal tea I gift in the past compare to the current elvish tea you have now, Mother-in-law? I got something else for you," Leon stated.

Shortly after, Leon took out the mining automaton blueprint and placed it on the table in front of Amelia.

"This is…?" Amelia studied the blueprint with a casual look.

However, her expression quickly turned serious as she immersed herself in reading the blueprint several breaths later.

"This… is incredible!" Amelia exclaimed.

"If we can produce the mining automatons according to this blueprint, we can increase the mining production and focus our manpower elsewhere…!"

"Don't be so surprised yet, Mother-in-law. I still have things to give you," Leon stated.

Shortly after, Leon took out a few tier-4 to tier-6 artifacts with varying uses and offered them all to Amelia.

Even if Amelia doesn't use the artifacts, she could still study their runic engravings to advance her runic knowledge.

"This… This is…!" Amelia failed to form a clear sentence in her shock. "Where did you get all of this?"

"From a secret realm in the other continent. Nevertheless, I'll be returning after this. Thus, you can expect a bigger haul from your son-in-law next time," Leon stated.

"Oh, yeah," Leon suddenly recalled something.

Leon quickly transmitted several primordial techniques and battle skills to Amelia with the Spirit Transmission Art.

Although the Lancaster family already has a few primordial cultivation techniques, the additional ones they don't cultivate could be used to reward their subordinates.

Afterward, Leon took out a few hundred pounds of sea monster meat and also offered them to his future mother-in-law.

"This type of seafood is to die. You can try cooking it any way you like; I promise you will fall in love with the taste within the first bite, Mother-in-law," Leon assured.

"Oh?" Amelia Lancaster uttered with interest. She was about to ask, but Leon had already explained the sea monster meat to her. "I'll definitely have to try it then. Why don't you stay for dinner?"

"I'm afraid I will have to decline this time around, Mother-in-law. I still need to settle the elves and slaves waiting outside," Leon refused the offer. "Next time, I promise."

"I suppose it can't be helped. You're a busy young man," Amelia nodded with understanding and did not try to keep him.

…

Sometime later, Leon left the Old Palace and met up with Faelyn and the others. Then, he led them to Lost Isle Alley to take the Teleportation Array back to Darkmoon Tribe.

Without any surprise, the Darkmoon Tribe was alerted by the large group of people appearing from the Teleportation Array on their side.

News quickly reached the leaders of the Darkmoon Tribe. Before long, the area around the Teleportation Array was surrounded by warriors.

"Well, is quite the warm welcome," Leon commented after being the last to step out of the Teleportation Array with Faelyn.

"Young Master Leonhardt—No, Alliance Leader? You're back!"

The faces of Chief Valencia and the others immediately turned into pleasant surprises after they recognized Leon within the group.

"Have you settled the food supply on your side, Alliance Leader?" Chief Valencia inquired shortly after.

"It has been arranged," Leon nodded before saying, "However, it will take some more time before the first batch of food supplies are ready for shipment."

"As such, I've brought these people first," Leon added.
