Chapter 168 - Chapter 169

"Oh my god! Everyone! We... are probably witnessing a moment that will go down in magical history! A brand new spatial spell is being born!"

However, at that moment, no one had time to respond to her exclamation; everyone was watching.

Including the dragon pupils of the two dragons, all were fixed on the slowly expanding golden hole.

Everyone held their breath, as if afraid that a small noise would disturb this miraculous scene.

Under Karl's control, the golden portal opening, the size of a head, expanded gradually at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Within seconds, it grew from the size of a head to something everyone had to look up to see.

Finally, its top nearly touched the cave's dome.

What was presented to everyone was a gigantic portal with golden sparks at its edges and a transparent mirror on the other side.

Opposite the portal, the scene outside Terra was unobstructed: dense forests swayed gently in the wind, and a few birds chirped as they flew by.

Everyone could even feel the fresh air from the other side, filled with the smell of earth and grass.

Yennefer subconsciously rubbed her eyes, then rubbed them again, her face bearing an expression of "doubting life."

This completely overturned her understanding of portal spells; they were not only stable and visible but also very large.

Karl lowered his hands and slightly raised his brows; he felt that this huge portal was created directly by divine power.

It consumed the divine power reserves in his body relatively slowly but continuously.

At the same time, he felt that the chaotic magic around the space was still stubbornly and continuously compressing and fighting the portal, but for now, it couldn't break free from the divine power.

"Don't waste time. Maintaining a portal of this size will continue to consume a lot of my power. Hurry!" Karl turned his head and shouted to the shocked crowd.

Geralt was the first to react, looking around and quietly saying: "Huh? Dandelion, he's not here?"

Yennefer patted his shoulder and said angrily: "That great poet? I'll call him back later!"

Geralt nodded, with strong curiosity and wonder in his eyes, and took the initiative to step towards the gigantic golden portal.

He looked at the door, which almost reached the cave's ceiling, with golden sparks constantly jumping at its edges.

He took a deep breath and, under the equally curious and nervous gaze of the crowd, stepped forward and entered the door, closely connected to the scene on the other side.

The next moment, his feet stood firmly on the soft ground outside Terra.

The expected feeling of distortion, imbalance, and even a slight sense of anxiety... none at all.

Geralt felt the entire process was as smooth as... ordinary walking; you could enter an inn without any hindrance, and you didn't even need to push the door open.

He was stunned for a moment, quickly turned around, faced everyone in the cave, waved his hand, and shouted loudly: "Everyone! Come over! This portal... is very safe!"

Ensuring that Geralt had arrived safely and confirmed it, the Tia sisters exchanged a glance and followed, cautiously passing through the portal.

Then came Myrgtabrakke, who carefully picked up the turquoise dragon's egg with her claws and roared at the young dragon Mydak to follow.

Then, taking a step, her massive body easily passed through the golden door and appeared under the sky of Terra.

Borch watched his partner and "adopted daughter" pass through, and without hesitation, he too passed through the door.

Finally, it was Yennefer's turn, but she didn't immediately head for the portal.

Instead, she walked over to Karl and said in a solemn tone: "Your Excellency Karl, I need to say a few words to Nidalmer and bid him farewell."

"Also, to call that great poet, please wait a moment."

Karl nodded in understanding; his mind moved slightly, and the portal quickly shrank into a small door that only one person could pass through.

Let Yennefer leave the cave and negotiate with the king.

As for the conversation between Yennefer and Nidalmer, Karl didn't mind it and didn't listen.

He saw from a distance that, listening to Yennefer's words, Nidalmer looked several times towards the cave.

The expression on the other party's face showed awe and respect, and he even bowed slightly towards Karl from afar, giving a solemn salute.

Karl knew in his heart that this king seemed more rational.

The dragon hunt initiated by Nidalmer had ended with heavy losses for his team, and the fools driven by greed had paid the price.

He had also healed the wounded who did not deserve to die and remained rational.

If the king still held a grudge in his heart, then he belonged to the category of foolish kings.

After all, organizing a team to hunt dragons was itself an extremely arrogant and unreasonable act.

The ultimate chaos of the team getting out of control could only be called self-inflicted.

After a while, Yennefer left and returned, followed by Dandelion.

Dandelion looked curiously at the portal and was about to ask when Yennefer kicked him in the back.

"Oh! Yennefer, you're so rude!" Dandelion held his lute in one hand, covered his buttocks with the other, stung by his high boots, and staggered towards Terra.

Yennefer turned back to Karl, this time under his slightly suspicious gaze.

She lowered her head and solemnly bowed: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency Karl."

Yennefer raised her head, with a slight apology and a faint pleased feeling at the corner of her mouth.

"There is one thing, perhaps without your permission, I discussed it with Nidalmer without authorization and agreed on your behalf."

When Karl heard this, his heart slightly skipped a beat. An apology first? It seemed the situation might be a bit sensitive.

But looking at Yennefer's relaxed and natural posture, it didn't seem like something that could harm his interests.

He paused for a moment and calmly asked: "Oh? What is it?"

Yennefer laughed and clearly explained: "When I was in Terra, I noticed that you built a temple, and then I entered the temple and found a statue there... somewhat resembling your appearance."

"I surmise that the existence of this temple may have a special meaning or role for you that I don't understand."

She watched Karl's expression and continued: "So I took the liberty of leading when bidding farewell to Nidalmer."

"I asked him to build a temple of comparable size in his realm and to lead his people in... proper worship."

"In return, if in the future he faces truly difficult problems that are hard to solve with the power of the kingdom,"

"he may contact me, and I will inform you of his request for help."
