Chapter 104: Morningstar's Extra Reward
Chapter 104: Morningstar's Extra Reward
"What are you doing?!!!"
Morningstar quickly transformed back into her cat form, flying up into the air and turning to glare at Su Yu with bared fangs.
"Huh? Didn't you say you were going to take me in?" Su Yu looked utterly confused.
Morningstar could transform into a dragon and a deer, clearly marking her as a Druid. When Druids transformed into deer, they gained a "Riding" ability, allowing them to carry teammates.
Seeing Morningstar turn into a deer, Su Yu had instinctively assumed she was going to carry him in.
But that wasn't what she meant at all.
Morningstar was furious, wanting nothing more than to breathe a dragon's fiery breath and incinerate the human in front of her. "I meant for you to follow me in. Who said you could ride on my back?"
As an elegant and noble Star Cat, even Princess Eliza didn't have the right to ride her. How dare this human offend her?! This was absolutely unacceptable!
"I'm sorry!" Su Yu quickly apologized. "I didn't mean to, it was just an instinctive action... How about this: the next time I go to Olran City, I'll bring you some fish treats, okay?"
"Fish treats? I want fresh sea fish!"
"No problem."
"At least 100 pounds!"
"I'll bring you 500 pounds!"
"Hmph! You're smart."
Feeling a bit mollified by the promise of fresh sea fish, Morningstar's anger subsided.
However, she still warned him, "There had better not be a next time. If you dare to come near me again, I'll burn you to ashes just like that vampire, understand?"
"Don't worry, it won't happen again." Su Yu quickly assured her.
Seeing that Su Yu's apology was sincere, Morningstar huffed and turned to fly into the manor. Su Yu let out a relieved breath and hurried to follow.
...
But as she flew, Morningstar couldn't help but recall the feeling of Su Yu riding her.
His strong legs had been wrapped around her waist, and the sensation was...
A strange, indescribable emotion rose from the depths of her heart.
"Ding! [Star Cat Morningstar]’s Goodwill towards you +5, Goodwill increased to ‘Indifferent.’"
"Huh?" Su Yu was bewildered. "Wasn't Morningstar just yelling at me? Why did her goodwill suddenly go up?"
"Maybe it's because of the 500 pounds of sea fish?" Su Yu thought to himself.
In the grand hall of the princess's residence, Princess Eliza sat in her main seat, listening to Su Yu's incredible journey and reading the letter Collin Filer had entrusted to him.
As for Morningstar, she had disappeared as soon as they arrived.
After hearing Su Yu's story, the princess sighed. "Collin Filer may have already fallen, and my secret line of communication is severed."
"My condolences, Your Highness."
"Thank you." The princess gazed out the window, lost in thought.
After a long moment, she turned back to Su Yu. "Thank you for delivering the message. The information Collin Filer sent back is invaluable."
Then she turned to the side. "Keldron, bring the reward over."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Keldron approached with a silver tray and respectfully placed it in front of Su Yu. On the tray was a bottle of golden-orange potion and a scroll radiating powerful spatial energy.
The princess gently said, "This potion is your reward. In addition to the potion, you almost died at the hands of the vampire. Morningstar conveyed a message for me to give you this scroll. It will provide you with an extra means of survival when you face powerful enemies."
"Ding! Congratulations on completing [The Glory of the Golden Rose Empire (14/100)]"
Task Reward: Energy Elixir (Gold) x1, Experience Points x500.
Ding! Following the Starcat Morning Star's suggestion, you have received an additional reward: Random Teleportation Scroll (Common) x1.
Random Teleportation Scroll (Common)
Remaining Uses: 1
Activation Method: Input Magic Power.
Effect: 0.5 seconds after activation, the user will be teleported to a random location within a 5-kilometer radius. The location must be on the ground or on water.
Note: If someone ends up stuck in a wall, remember, this is not a game bug, just the unfortunate result of using a Random Teleportation Scroll.
Su Yu was slightly surprised.
He hadn’t expected Morning Star to give him an additional reward. It seemed that the 500 pounds of fish were truly worth it!
Moreover, the Random Teleportation Scroll was quite practical.
With this scroll in hand, he would feel much more confident when taking on tasks and wouldn’t have to worry about task failure due to death.
Additionally, this scroll had a rarity, meaning it could be upgraded using Star Tapping Hand. Unlike items like Tina's Blood or Mushroom's Lament, which had no rarity and couldn’t be upgraded with Star Tapping Hand.
Su Yu tried to enhance it.
Ding, do you wish to spend 10,000 Spirit Coins to enhance the [Random Teleportation Scroll (Common)]?
Confirm.
Ding, the [Random Teleportation Scroll (Common)] has been upgraded to [Random Teleportation Scroll (Superior)], increasing the teleportation range by 5 kilometers.
Ding, do you wish to spend 100,000 Spirit Coins?
No.
Su Yu didn’t continue the upgrade.
After using Star Tapping Hand, it seemed the only improvement was an increased teleportation range. Spending another 100,000 to upgrade it further wasn’t worth it.
However, after using Star Tapping Hand, Su Yu suddenly realized that he was now level 21 and could use Star Tapping Hand to upgrade all his skills to Legendary quality!
Still, he decided to wait until he left the Princess’s residence to upgrade them. For now, he needed to focus on completing the task.
Su Yu bowed slightly to the Princess: "Thank you, Your Highness."
"This is what you deserve," the Princess stood up and smiled. "However, there is one more thing I need to ask of you."
"Please, go on."
The Princess's expression turned serious: "Colin Filer mentioned in his letter that after gathering intelligence over the past few days, he discovered that Duke Seifer has been colluding with the Bellflower Empire to the north, though he has no evidence."
"Colin Filer believes that in Duke Seifer's estate in Fish Tail Alley in the southern part of the city, there might be evidence of this collusion."
"Kexing, are you willing to infiltrate this estate and help me gather evidence?"
Ding! Your main quest has been updated! [Glory of the Golden Rose Empire (15/100)].
Quest Requirement: Infiltrate Duke Seifer’s estate in Fish Tail Alley in the southern part of the city and find evidence of his collusion with the Bellflower Empire.
Quest Reward: Experience Points x1000.
"Huh? That’s not right!"
Seeing the quest reward, Su Yu was taken aback.
According to the usual pattern, quests at the 5th, 10th, and other multiples of 5 rings had excellent rewards. Why was the reward for the 15th ring of the Princess’s quest only 1000 experience points?
However, Su Yu didn’t dwell on it too much and decided to take the quest first.
"Your Highness, I am willing to serve you," Su Yu said withlally,100 percent. "I will head to the Duke’s estate immediately."
"Go, Kexing, I will wait here for your report."
