Chapter 232: That Day

She gave up on practicing the complex divine spells and reciting the head-scratching religious doctrine everyday .

After becoming a member of the caravan, she only needed to learn the knowledge of trading and enjoy the days of travel .

In the caravan, no one could live an extravagant life without working hard with their own hands .

Every time they passed by a village, she would record the village’s special local products in her notebook . She imagined that one day, she would bring her own caravan back to the villages and trade with the villagers just like what the current caravan had done .

It seemed that it wasn’t an impossible dream . Compared to being the Queen, this future was much better in her heart .

As time went by, she had followed the caravan travelling around the world for a whole year, and learned how to buy and sell goods bit by bit .

She was a smart little girl . One year later, although she was still only nine years old, she was already able to buy and sell goods alone . Every time when the caravan stopped and rested in a city or a village, she would spread out goods to sale in her own booth .

Although she couldn’t earn a lot from this, she still felt happy, because she was indeed walking forward on the road to the future that she wanted to have .

Before that day, she always believed that she could be an excellent merchant . Perhaps a few years later, she would be able to team up with the young children in the caravan and form a new caravan with them . And this was what the adults in the caravan were happy to see . They always looked at these brave young children with their warm eyes and encouraged them to do whatever they wanted to do .

At the beginning of history, there was only one caravan in the whole of Water God’s world . As time went by, the children in the caravan gradually grew up and left the caravan . They teamed up and formed new caravans one by one, because they believed that they were trying to build a better future for all of the Water God’s world .

People believed that they should give the credit to the great Water God . Because the Water God was blessing all living beings in this world, so that this world could be so prosperous and vibrant .

However, the world wasn’t always peaceful . Even in such a beautiful world, there were still horrible things out there .

It was a sunny morning . Elizabeth was looking at the distant sky . Pink clouds floated in the sky as if they were some shy blushing girls, and behind the clouds, the sun half exposed its red face . After a while, the clouds faded away and the sun rose, everything on the ground was basking in the bright sunlight .

“What a nice day!”

“We should set out on our journey now . ”

“Elizabeth, let’s go!”

For some reason, as everyone were bursting with happiness, Elizabeth suddenly sensed a special feeling . Her bloodline made her uneasy, as if it was warning her that something was coming . Unfortunately, she didn’t understand that warning from her bloodline at that time .

Soon after, the whole caravan embarked on the journey and slowly moved onto the safe route .

However, about two hours later, the mist around them suddenly became cold and damp .

As gusts of wind blew over the whole caravan from the mist, the sunny sky darkened as the mist became thicker and thicker .

“No! It’s Mist Tide!”

“That can’t be true! The Mist Tide shouldn’t come at this time!”

“Run, run! Just leave the goods here . Run as fast as you can!”

Why is everyone so scared? Why is everyone’s face turning pale?

Unfortunately, the mist had surrounded the unlucky caravan . After a few seconds, the huge Mist Tide had swallowed the whole caravan .

“No! I don’t want to die!”

“God, please save us! At least, please save my child!”

“The great Water God, help us!”

The people reverently prayed, however, it couldn’t save them .

Mist Tide was one of the most dangerous natural disasters in the Water God’s world . If the fertile land and the sweet fountains were the god’s blessing the world, then the unpredictable Mist Tide was all the world’s nightmare .

No one knew what would happen to the people who were involved in the Mist Tide, because no one had ever returned from it .

That day, after witnessing what happened in the Mist Tide, for the first time, Elizabeth realized how feeble and naive she was .

The uncles and aunts, who had been considered to be her families, froze and was swallowed in front of her by the mist . An unknown horrible monster came with the Mist Tide and ate the people of the caravan one by one in front of her .

Her friends, the boys and girls who had promised that they would form a new caravan and work around the world with her, cried and struggled in the monster’s paws . However, their struggle was meaningless . The monster slowly and ruthlessly ate Elizabeth’s friends, breaking all her dreams about her future .

“Elizabeth, if you can be the Queen, I believe that you will be a good Queen . “

“Elizabeth, the Queen is very special . ”

“Elizabeth, you are beloved by the god . ”

The monster didn’t eat Elizabeth . Although it stared at her with a great greed, but it sensed a very special aura from her, which made it hesitate for a very long while and finally left reluctantly .

At that moment, Elizabeth finally understood what the Queen’s bloodline meant . Even if she had only a little part of the first Queen’s bloodline, she was still special .

Maybe this was the reason why the monster was scared away .

She finally understood how feeble and naive she was .

After losing everything, she returned to her family . When she picked up the divine spell book again, she cried and blamed herself because she didn’t study hard in the past .

If I had mastered the strong divinity spells in the book, I could’ve defeated the monster in the mist and changed the whole caravan’s miserable fate!

After that, she matured overnight . She realized the importance of her bloodline and the fate she would carry on her back .

This world wasn’t as wonderful as she thought before . There were monsters in the mist and demons in people’s nightmare . This world also had its dark side .
