Mars and I were startled by Stellar's scream, so I quickly cut the fruit and we rushed together to find Stellar. We saw an ugly-looking creature walking towards Stellar, then Mars shouted to divert the creature's attention.
The creature rushed towards Mars with incredible speed, grabbing Mars by the throat. I immediately cut the tentacle that grabbed his throat to free him. Stellar flew towards the creature and stabbed it in the neck with her knife. Unfortunately, the creature had already stabbed Mars with its other tentacles. The creature grabbed Stellar and flew up, but she used her knife to cut the tentacle holding her and flew down.
I took some white manbin fruit and viable seeds, as well as some of the creature's tentacles for research purposes. After that, I sewed up Mars' wound. After ten minutes, we used strength-renewing pills and continued our journey. When we got tired and it was late at night, we decided to sleep.
The next day, we continued our journey, using strength-renewing pills again. Eventually, we reached the valley, where we slept again. The following day, we continued our journey, putting in extra effort since we were close to the city. In a short time, we reached the city.
I followed Mars and Stellar to their house to see them off, then ran to the palace. When I got to my father's room, I met Alpharex and Nova guarding the door. They were happy to see me. When i got Inside, I saw my father lying down with his eyes open and his body motionless. I cut the white manbin fruit, removed the seeds, and squeezed the juice into a cup, then gave it to my father to drink.
After he drank the juice, I left his room and went to the royal garden to plant some of the seeds. Then, I went to the head farmer's house to give him some white manbin seeds. He was surprised because white manbin was extremely rare and had being protected by some creatures . He planted the seeds in his garden and in the Planting Area of Avalon (PAA).
After leaving his house, I went to the palace and met Mars and Stellar, giving them some seeds to plant. When I returned home, I was tired and slept. The next day, I went to my father's room to check on him and found him sitting and reading a war letter. He gave it to me to read and learn.
I called for a meeting of the Council of Avalon (COA) and told my father to pretend to be on the brink of death. At the meeting, I stated that I called it due to the attempted assassination of the king and the impending war between Avalon and Peninsula. I told the law upholder to investigate the attempted murder, but the general opposed me, suggesting it might have been a spy from Peninsula. He gave an unnecessary history lesson about Peninsula's past.
I postponed the meeting to the next ten days, and we left the meeting room.
Afterward, I took my father to his room and went to my lab to research the creature we encountered. However, when I got there, I found that the creature tentacle had decayed, and I couldn't determine why.
