Reborn As A Nephilim: The Rise of A Manaless Prince
Chapter 60 Getting Ready To Depart

Almost two whole weeks had passed since Arvell and Zen arrived at the Silvercolt estate.

Arvell spent most of that time training with Angela, interacting with Zen's family, and playing with August.

It was a nice change of pace for him after living in the wilderness for 5 straight months.

Having a warm bed, freshly cooked food, and a safe environment to get stronger.

There wasn't anything more Arvell wanted, making this his ideal environment.

While he did like hunting and killing beasts and being able to test the full extent of his power, training with Angela and the other knights was good for him.

Even Uriel and Rupert had a few rounds with Arvell.

However, even with them suppressing their strength, Arvell wasn't able to do much damage to them.

They weren't the captain and vice-captain for nothing after all.

The slave traders were all tried for their crimes and publicly executed as well.

Their bodies were on the city's walls, as a warning for others who might want to follow in their footsteps.

While some might consider it barbaric, most people agreed with this decision.

They needed to pay for what they did.

And pay they did.

After a full two weeks of training, it was finally time.

They were finally going to depart to Karsia, the Elantyrian capital.

*Knock Knock Knock*

Arvell rubbed his eyes groggily and yawned.

"ahhhh-hhaaaaaa…"

Pulling himself to his feet he slowly sauntered to the door and opened it.

Only to replace Angela standing there with an excited expression.

"Arvell! We'll be leaving soon, so hurry up and get ready!"

Arvell had an amused smile when he heard Angela's energetic tone.

"Are you a child? Why so energetic in the morning?"

It was quite early in the morning, around 5 am to be exact.

The sun wasn't even out yet.

But Angela was up and raring to go regardless.

However, after hearing Arvell's words, his face turned red with blush.

"Um... I'm just really excited for… School! Yeah! School! It's been so long since I was last there you know! I missed my friends and the professors!"

Arvell watched her charade with a deadpan expression.

'I call bullshit.'

'I second that.' Lykos agreed.

'Welp, whatever it is, as long as it doesn't affect me I don't really care.'

Arvell found it would be too bothersome to stick his head in Angela's business, so he decided to drop the matter.

"A-anyways! Be ready in an hour! We leave at sunrise sharp! If you're late, I'll drag you out myself!"

During their time at the estate, the two of them had gotten a little closer, to the point where Angela started treating Arvell as if he were her actual brother.

Even Arvell started to open up a bit to Angela, but he never allowed her past the mental walls he put up around himself.

While he was nowhere near ready to completely trust her, his friendliness towards her became less of an act, and more genuine.

He still found it a little awkward when she treated him like he was her actual brother.

Arvell was still sensitive about that whole topic after all…

After Angela left, Arvell went over to wake up August.

The baby golden dragon still assumed his black fox form, even while sleeping, so that they wouldn't have any unexpected problems if someone burst into Arvell's room while the two were fast asleep.

Arvell put his hand on August's face and tapped his cheek a few times.

"It's time to get up Aug."

August slowly lifted his head and rubbed it against Arvell's hand affectionately

"Kyuu?"

'It's time to go take a bath and go now! Come on, let's get going.'

Aug looked at Arvell and put his hands outstretched as if he was expecting a hug.

'Kyuu!'

*Sigh*

'Fine… I'll carry you to the bathtub.'

Arvell lifted up Aug by holding him under his arms, before bringing him to the bathtub.

The two of them enjoyed a nice warm relaxing bath before Arvell got dressed.

After Arvell finished putting everything he owned into his bag and his inventory, the two of them finally bid farewell to the room that they used for the past two weeks.

August was quite sentimental about it, considering that this was the room he was born in after all.

He had grown attached to it.

'Don't worry, we can always come again later. More importantly… Don't you want to see the rest of the world? You only have one life so you should live it to its fullest.'

'KYUU!'

Arvell had told August about the various places that he had been to or heard about.

Even places that Arvell didn't even know if they truly existed.

Sunken underwater cities…

Floating castles…

A turtle that was so massive it could carry a continent on its back…

August listened to Arvell's stories with unbridled fascination.

These tales served as Arvell's version of 'bedtime' stories for August.

August was especially fascinated with the last one.

He had never even seen a turtle before, so August was quite intrigued, to say the least.

One could even say that at this point Arvell's nighttime stories had become an integral part of their daily routine.

August dramatically bid one last farewell to the bedroom, before the two of them went to go meet up with the others.
