Chapter 694: Fight?
As the full moon hung in the sky and a slight chill spread in the forest, Sol took shelter on the roots of a large tree. He sat on the roots, taking in his surroundings.
Surrounding him, he observed the peacefully standing animals, grooming themselves.
It was quite a strange sight. Nocturnal animals, daytime ones, or predators and prey stood together without conflicts. Such a sight could also be denoted as nothing short of a miracle.
An amused smile lingered on Sol’s face. He wondered if he should start singing now to complete this fairy-tale-esque scene. Sadly, he was no princess.
The animals were simply attracted to him because of his power and the way he had been treating them during his stay.
Since Sol caused the death of so many animals while fighting Kiyohime, he had been feeling relatively guilty.
There was no way to bring back the ones he had already killed but surely he could do something for the survivors, right? At least that’s how Sol reasoned to lessen some of his guilt.
And just like that, he had now become some sort of guardian deity of this place. Spreading his aura and helping them grow. He was sure that in a few years or decades, some of them might even awaken spirituality and evolve from simple animals to magical beasts.
“I have to say, I am feeling quite impatient to see the results of my work on those animals. What about you?” He spoke loudly but there was no answer. Even after waiting for some time, there was only silence.
