The Primal Hunter
Chapter 906
Miyamoto felt the cold winds sweeping across his body as he trekked up the mountain. Many of the ice elementals noticed him, but none approached as he soon reached the summit where this powerful beast known as the Northpeak Wyvern should reside.
Admittedly, an environment like this was far from favorable to him, as his water affinity was severely weakened due to the cold, but he was still confident. Its level more or less matched him, and while the vampire raid team described the wyvern as powerful, the mere fact any of them managed to return alive and that they could injure the beast was proof that it shouldn’t be a threat to him.
As described, he found the cavern atop the mountain, and within, he felt the presence of a monster. The last update he got before he headed off from Haven said that the captured vampires were still alive, but he feared things may have changed as he only felt the presence of a single living being within.
If it was so, the least he could do was enact vengeance. The Prima Response Team, as the people in charge of preparing for the Prima Guardian’s arrival called themselves, had designated this wyvern too dangerous to leave alive anyway, so someone would have to slay it anyway. May as well be him.
Walking through the cavern, he was ready should it attack with a breath, as he had been informed the wyvern was extraordinarily aggressive and impossible to talk to, and the design of the cave made it a perfect choke point to-
“Excuse me, can I help you with anything?” a voice echoed through the cave as the Sword Saint stopped and frowned. The tone did not carry the level of arrogance he had expected, but he wasn’t going to let his guard down.
He responded as he infused his voice with energy. “I hope for your sake you can. A group of vampires recently fought you here, and I believe a number of them were captured alive.”
“That… that was all a misunderstanding that has been rectified,” the wyvern responded in a meek tone, making the Sword Saint frown even more. Usually, the data provided by members of his clan was extremely accurate, but the current situation certainly wasn’t in line with his expectations. Had he somehow gotten the wrong mountain? No… no, that wouldn’t make any sense.
“I question your claims, but please enlighten me as to the nature of your rectification,” he responded, not far from his goal.
“It’s… fine if you come to the big cavern to talk…”
Continuing through the cave, he soon reached the inner cave, where he saw the large wyvern nested in the middle. He was ready to draw his sword but felt no aggression as he got a nervous impression from the wyvern.
“Gre… greetings,” the wyvern said, seemingly trying really hard to be polite.
The Sword Saint didn’t respond immediately but scanned the room and saw no immediate signs of any trapped vampires. “What happened to the vampires you captured?”
“They left,” the wyvern responded quickly. “I, eh, I let them go, and they left a few days ago…”
Narrowing his eyes, Miyamoto placed one hand on the handle of his sword. “And why would you just let them go?”
“I saw the error of my ways?” the wyvern responded before seemingly nodding to itself as if to confirm the answer.
“Do excuse me if I question the validity of any creature changing their entire manner of acting so abruptly,” the Sword Saint said skeptically as he looked directly at the wyvern. “Unless there is more than one Northpeak Wyvern, you are known for attacking indiscriminately any who dares set foot atop this mountain, and you mean to tell me that has suddenly changed within a couple of days?”
“Yes?” the wyvern responded, staring unblinkingly at the Sword Saint. “I, eh… learned my lesson and will no longer be a menace, but always talk first and not just attack.”
“Forgive me for my continued skepticism, but what was the impetus for this change?”
“Impetus?” the wyvern asked, seemingly not understanding what the word meant.
“Reason. Cause. What event caused you to have such a sudden shift in behavior?” the Sword Saint elaborated. He hoped the wyvern had a satisfactory answer; if not, he wasn’t averse to doing what he originally came to this mountain to do, even if the wyvern claimed it had suddenly wisened up, as everything could easily just be a ruse to avoid powerful people actually slaying it. It would need a really good rea-
