The Primal Hunter

Chapter 880

Jake took a second to process what the hell the elemental had just said, and before he could even do that, he felt bloodlust radiate from behind him. This shook Jake back to reality as his own aura also unconsciously leaked, joining that of three others.

Carmen had been the first to stare daggers at the elemental, seemingly ready to pounce, but, to Jake’s slight surprise, the Fallen King and Sword Saint also showed their clear displeasure as they looked ready to assist Carmen should she attack.

However, before any of them could do or say anything, Sylphie proved that she didn’t need anyone to stand up for her, as she made a no-nonsense reply.

”Ree.”

The elemental was taken aback, partly by Sylphie’s screech and partly by the four C-grades seemingly ready to turn him into slushed ice. Still, he managed to keep his head cool as he focused on Sylphie.

”Please do not take offense. It would be an honor for you to join hands with me. We are both holders of autho-”

”Ree.”

”Such a reply is shortsighted and-”

”Ree.”

”… what?”

”Ree, ree, ree. Ree,” Sylphie explained as the bird stood perched on nothing in mid-air.

Surprisingly, Wintermaul looked deep in thought for a moment before he tried one last time. ”I… I can change, or we can maybe find a solution…”

”Ree,” Sylphie shook her head, making the poor ice elemental look dejected.

”Alas, it seems we are not meant to conjoin our Paths. I apologize if I overstepped… I did not mean to make anyone uncomfortable or make any enemies.”

Turning to Jake, who was still looking at Wintermaul with narrowed eyes, the elemental bowed. ”I congratulate you on your brilliant accomplishment and shall take my leave before I make a further fool of myself.”

With that, the elemental backed away, as Jake, the Fallen King, Sword Saint, and Carmen didn’t let him leave their sight before he was far enough away.

”I swear, if not for those rules,” Carmen muttered as she unclenched her fists.
