Stella followed Savison to Dragon Island, briefly greeted her friends, and then listened in from the sidelines.

Because it was getting late, Savison only sent out adult dragons to search for traces of the other races, while Stella was left behind in the dragon's lair.

Stella noticed that the once lively little dragon cubs now looked like wilted eggplants, listless and radiating an aura of melancholy.

Stella flew over and hugged them one by one: "Savison will definitely find Andrei, don't be afraid."

One of the dragon cubs suddenly burst into tears: "Stella, it was me who suggested playing hide-and-seek. If I had found Andre back then, would he still be here?"

“Of course not,” Stella said. “The fact that Andrei deliberately carried a gem that could conceal his presence shows that he planned this all along. It has nothing to do with who suggested playing hide-and-seek.”

“And when Andrei comes back,” Stella waved her little fist, “I think you can give him a good beating. He’s made you worry so much, he needs to feel the pain so he’ll remember what he can’t do.”

Andrei's cousin, who was the dragon cub captured by the rebels, has now reached sub-adulthood and has taken human form as a robust young man.

Hearing Stella's words, he clenched his fist in agreement, the veins bulging on his arm, which was as thick as a dragon's head: "Stella is right. When Andrei comes back, we must give him a good beating and teach him a lesson."

Having experienced it firsthand, he naturally knew better how unpredictable people's hearts were in the outside world. Therefore, he always paid close attention to the education of these youngsters, and even tirelessly used his own experiences as examples.

Who knew that Andrei would let it go in one ear and out the other, not taking it to heart at all.

Seeing his furious expression, Stella wisely shut up and instead comforted the little dragon cubs in front of her.

Dragon Island is quite large, capable of housing so many dragons. It's no easy task to thoroughly investigate it without any oversights, and Savison and his group won't be back for a while.

The little dragon cubs were arranged to stay in the cave and were temporarily taken care of by their elders. When it was Stella's turn, they were a little troubled. After all, the Elf King was not there, and Stella was still a cub. They couldn't let Stella go to the Elf King's private treehouse alone.

Stella brought out her greenhouse, indicating that the king had thought of this in advance, and that all she needed was a platform to set it up.

The dragons could do something this simple; in fact, they even contributed their most beautiful gem box so that Stella could rest better.

Stella didn't stand on ceremony with them; it was just a temporary arrangement anyway.

Stella went into the greenhouse and closed the flower buds. Not long after, Catherine contacted her.

Stella, aren't you home?

Stella admired Catherine's keen insight and nodded, saying, "Yes, something came up unexpectedly, and I'm somewhere else now."

She didn't elaborate, and Catherine wisely refrained from asking further questions.

"By the way, Stella, I've gotten what I wanted from Snow City. My next stop is the Dragon Clan."

“Also,” she paused, her voice lowering, “those two traitors I told you about before have joined my guard.”

"They were still hiding their identities, so I didn't expose them."

Stella listened to her rambling for a while, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't advise her not to come to the Dragon Clan for the time being.

After the communication was cut off, Stella sat for a while, then, itching to reach for her hands, she pulled out a local version of tarot cards from her storage ring.

Other magicians might need to wash their hands, set out a tablecloth of a suitable color, light candles, and even consider the angle of the moon.

Stella, however, needed none of that.

She sat on the ground, roughly arranged the cards according to the orientation of the six-pointed star magic circle, and then flipped them over one by one.

Judging from the cards in front of her, Stella could probably guess that Andrei was still alive and had not fallen into the hands of the enemy, but his condition did not seem to be very good.

This location...

It seems like the route Catherine is taking overlaps somewhat with the route she's taking.

Stella lightly tapped the card with her finger, a movement so similar to that of the Elf King.

Unfortunately, she was alone in the greenhouse, and no other living beings saw her.

Stella put the cards away, thinking that the Destiny Chart was more useful. Unfortunately, she was currently under the Elf King's nose and couldn't explain how the Destiny Chart was created.

Stella packed her things and, seeing that Savison and the others hadn't returned yet, initially thought she'd wait, but the longer she waited, the sleepier she became, and she fell asleep.

Fortunately, she had gone to bed early, and the next day she managed to stop Savison when he returned to run errands.

"Stella, you said your divination predicted that Andrei went north?"

Savison didn't doubt whether she was right or wrong, and immediately sent more dragons in that direction.

“Thank you for reminding me, Stella,” Savison said somewhat seriously. “I sent people in every direction, but I overlooked the north.”

"Although the area north of Dragon Island is extremely cold, and Andrei has never liked ice and snow, since this is his first time away from home, if he wants us to not be able to find him, there is a high probability that he will go north."

Savison's expression grew increasingly wary; he clearly realized that it was very wrong of him to have overlooked the arrangements for the North.

Moreover, not only was he the only one like this, but after he gave the order, not a single one of the dragons raised any other opinions.

Although the Elf King has always said that dragons are brainless, there are still some intelligent dragons.

The fact that even they overlooked this point makes the problem quite serious.

Savison looked at the sky, feeling unsure whether there was more to Andrei's sudden departure from home than met the eye.

Thinking of this, Savison also felt somewhat uneasy about the tribesmen he had just sent out.

He looked down and asked, "Stella, could you please come with me?"

"Whether or not we find Andrei, I will give you the best gems I have recently acquired, and I will also give you a large portion of Andrei's gold coins and treasures."

Stella, of course, did not refuse. She controlled the greenhouse to settle on Savison's shoulder and then urged him to set off.

Savison was initially worried that Stella would fall and dared not increase his speed, until he discovered that the greenhouse she was using was unusually sturdy, which immediately revealed his true nature.
