Chapter 655 Future of the wyverns (4)
For a second it almost seemed like the fourth prince was about to fall off.
At this height, he definitely would have turned into a pile of meat on the ground if he fell.
When they saw the fourth prince get swept off Joan’s back, his subordinates who had also come up with their wyverns started moving into position to catch him.
With the way that they moved, it was as if they had already expected this to happen and was just waiting for it to happen. It seemed that they had been following the fourth prince for quite some time now that they were able to predict his moves.
It seemed that they had suffered under the fourth prince quite a bit.
But there was nothing for them to do since Joan suddenly twisted.
With one quick scoop, Joan grabbed the fourth prince falling from her back with her claw and put him right back before flying as normal.
I had made sure to hold on tight as soon as I felt her turning.
When I saw the fourth prince safely on Joan’s back again, I couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief.
After all, I never would have imagined that the fourth prince would do something as risky as this.
However, the fourth prince didn’t seem to mind at all.
Instead of being dazed or terrified like a normal person would be, he was laughing as he said, “That really was exhilarating, let’s do it again.”
I really felt the urge to slap him on the head when I heard this, but I held myself back in the end.
Striking the fourth prince…even if I was close enough to him that he called me brother, I didn’t think that I would be able to get away with it unscathed.
I patted Joan on the back to show my gratitude for catching the fourth prince in time and she just gave a happy soft roar as if she was saying, “It’s no problem.”
I could also see the fourth prince’s men looking at their wyverns as if they were asking them if they could do the same. However, the wyverns seemed to look away when they were asked this question.
It seemed like this wasn’t possible for them to do the same thing as Joan.
But then again, it wasn’t as if they had the same physical capabilities as Joan.
There was a reason why I had gotten all those treasures from the fourth prince, it was all to raise Joan to become the Wyvern King…Queen.
After patting Joan, I said, “Let’s go down.”
She gave a nod before she started to descend.
The look on the fourth prince’s face made it clear that he wasn’t happy about this, but I just ignored it as I had Joan maintain her course.
If we remained in the air, who knew what else the fourth prince would do.
For my sanity and the sanity of the fourth prince’s men flying around, it was better if we landed as soon as possible.
Once we landed the fourth prince’s people quickly came forward to surround him.
Though they didn’t do anything, I could see something familiar from them.
It seemed that they were looking carefully at him, as if making sure that there was nothing wrong with him.
This was similar to how Rose and others would always check me after I came back from one of my trips…
It seems that they really did care about the fourth prince.
When they were finished, the fourth prince came forward to ask, “Can I have a wyvern as well?”
I was completely caught off guard by this sudden request from the fourth prince.
I just stared at him as if I was trying to figure out if he was being serious or not, but the excited look in the eyes of the fourth prince didn’t change.
It seemed like he really meant what he said.
But that surprised me even more.
Why did the fourth prince suddenly ask for a wyvern like this?
No…it wasn’t sudden.The signs had all been there since the beginning, I should have already expected this based on the way that he had been looking at the wyverns the entire time.
From the very beginning, the fourth prince should have wanted a wyvern of his own.
In that case…
“Alright, you can get one as well.” I said in a calm voice.
Though I was calm, the subordinates of the fourth prince were anything but that.
The way that they waved their arms at me from behind the fourth prince made it clear that they wanted to change my mind. The way that they almost seemed like they were dancing around, it was clear that they wanted me to reject the fourth prince.
But I had other plans.
The fourth prince was an important part of my plan now, so I had to make sure that he was safe.
What was safer than having a wyvern by his side to protect him?
These were giant powerful creatures that almost no one would be able to fight against.
If there was a wyvern that was protecting the fourth prince, would anyone be able to do anything to him?
Though there would be the danger of the fourth prince falling off, I was certain that it wouldn’t be a real danger. The fourth prince was someone important, there was no doubt that he would have magic items that would save him if something like that were to happen.
So in the end, I called the wyvern shaman over to help the fourth prince pick a wyvern of his own.
The fourth prince was immediately intrigued by the wyvern shaman and had wanted to take the wyvern shaman, but the wyvern shaman just ignored him.
So the fourth prince had no choice but to choose another one.
The one that he chose…was a child.
Well, it wasn’t exactly a child, but it was a teenager wyvern that hadn’t fully grown yet.
