The Atrocious Werewolf Prince

Chapter 311 Compensate

?

Ella immediately froze up when she heard the question, gritting her teeth as she hatefully glared at Ezra. How could she possibly talk about it?

"This, this guy…" She pointed at the prince as she stammered for practically half an hour, but was ultimately unable to say anything, only growing increasingly angry and embarrassed as she glared at him.

Elder Rilda suspiciously looked towards Ezra. "This boy, what did he do to anger the emotionless Ella to such a degree." She pondered 

Under Elder Rilda's gaze, an unwavering look emerged on Ezra's face as he stepped up and said, "I am not the one at fault, I really did not do it on purpose. It's the sect's mistake for not providing disciples with a complete map, I am a new disciple and champion of the peak selection ceremony. It's my first time in Mountain Duct and I didn't even know rankers have personal territory, the senior sister should point her finger at the sect instead of attacking an innocent junior disciple"

Ezra remained silent for a few seconds, taking time to judge their reaction, Elder Rilda and Ella looked at him with shock until Ezra spoke again. "But for the sake of the elder, I will back down and compensate."

"What?" Ella clenched her jaw even harder. "How are you going to compensate? Are you going to let me see you in return?"

The prince awkwardly scratched his head, before retrieving numerous bottles from his bracelet that were filled with many Duct Creation Energy crystals. "Can I use these as compensation?"

They were the fruits of his and cubs' labours from earlier.

"Oh?" Elder Hilda could not help but be shocked by the sight of the crystals in the prince's hands, because she could sense that some of them were clearly from 800-foot duct beasts.

But Ezra was merely at the 2nd level Core Formation stage, how did he manage to hunt too many formidable duct beasts?

She was not the only one. Even Ella was surprised for a moment because she clearly understood how difficult it was to hunt duct beasts in the reservoir.

Although Ezra did have quite a substantial amount of Duct Creation Energy crystals, they were not worth much in Ella Abella's eyes. She owned a personal hunting ground in the reservoir and could enter any time she wished. Ordinary crystals held little allure to her.

Hence, she merely swept a cold glance at Ezra Zephyr. Just as she was about to speak, Elder Hilda suddenly arrived at her side.

Elder Hilda advised in a low voice, "Ella, although I still do not know what has happened, you will only lose out even more if you insist on continuing."

This made Ella somewhat sullen. She was one of the top 10 outer mountain rankers after all, but had ended up being completely seen by this bastard, how could she possibly swallow this?

Elder Hilda said, "If I'm not wrong, that boy should be Ezra Zephyr who recently joined the sect. Peak Master Bisma regards him very highly and values him to the point that she offers him to join Colleen Evil Peak. In fact, all the peak masters started fighting over him, something that even Sith Wiggins couldn't accomplish." Elder Hilda knew more about Ezra but she didn't say everything.

Ella looked at Ezra in amazement. According to elders, ever since Master Bisma became the peak master she never has taken any male disciple in peak. So he was that Ezra Zephyr. He indeed is very strange, could senior brother Sith block an attack from a Foundation Establishment expert in his 2nd level Core Formation stage days? 

"Look at his confidence, he surely has something up his sleeves, you won't be able to achieve anything."

Ella gently bit into her red lips, somewhat unwilling to accept this. However, she had to admit that Ezra was very strong, and would surely have a place amongst the top 20 rankers if he wanted.

Elder Hilda chuckled softly and asked, "Wasn't your initial plans obstructed by Wilson Sallow and Govrin?"

At the mention of this topic, Ella felt even more sullen, feeling that everything was going wrong for her. The 100p feet duct beast she had her sights on was snatched away by Wilson and Govrin, and she had even been interrupted by an intruding Ezra while she was soaking in her personal hot spring.

"If you can calm down, I will help you mediate." Said Elder Hilda.

Ella's hands clenched slightly as her expression fluctuated indeterminately. In the end, she reluctantly nodded. She understood that there was no benefit for her to continue kicking up a fuss. After calming down, she knew that she could not possibly murder Ezra Zephyr.

Elder Hilda breathed a sigh of relief. She was worried that Ella would choose to be unreasonable and make matters even worse, which would only be disadvantageous to her.

Hence, she pulled Ella as they landed in the valley.

She looked towards Ezra with a smile and remarked, "No wonder peak master Bisma has such a high opinion of you, you are indeed an outstanding talent."

Ezra's handsome face remained indifferent. He merely glanced behind Elder Hilda at Ella, not speaking at all.

"Ezra, although I do not know why this happened, I believe that you're not the one who has lost the most, right?" Elder Hilda looked towards the prince and smiled.

Ezra looked towards Ella, only to see the latter biting into her lips, her bright eyes staring at him like a sword. Of course, he wasn't the one who had lost out the most. He could only nod his head.

"Then are you going to make up for it?" Asked Elder Hilda.

"All I have are these Duct Creation Energy crystals, but they do not meet senior sister Ea's standards." The prince forced a smile. He too did not want to offend Ella, he had to stick to his plans and it would naturally be best if they could amiably resolve this matter.

Elder Hilda waved her hand and said, "Never mind about the crystals. I hope that you can help out Ella as compensation, Then we can call this matter even, and no one shall ever bring it up again in the future."

"Help?" Ezra was taken aback as he looked towards Ella. A puzzled look also flitted across his scarlet eyes.

Elder Hilda nodded and explained with a smile. "Ella's goal is the 1000-foot duct beast, so I hope to ask for your help."

Ezra nonchalantly asked, "Is she unable to deal with a 1000-foot duct beast?"

Ezra was rational, compensating with crystals was one thing and helping her was another.

Ella calmly explained, "I can naturally deal with a 1000 feet duct beast, but am currently obstructed by Wilson  and Govrin's cooperation."

"Wilson Sallow and Govrim?" Ezra secretly grinned. So the two of them were working together to exclude Ella.

Elder Hilda smiled as she nodded. "That's right. If you can help Ella stop Govrin, she will have a chance to compete for the 1000 feet aquatic beast."

By this point, Ezra Zephyr and Ella Abella were aware of the elder's intentions.

So she planned on borrowing his power to contend against Wilson and Govrin.

Ezraa's gaze seemed to sweep toward Ella.

Ella was a little unable to suffer with the humiliation any further, and somewhat stubbornly said, "Elder Hilda, I can deal with those two. Moreover, even if I lose this chance, there will still be other opportunities in the future."

She was not willing to lower her head in front of Ezra.

"Both you and Wilson and just that single step from the 2nd level of Foundation Establishment stage. If you yield this chance to Wilson Sallow, he will be one step ahead of you." Said Elder Hilda with a solemn expression. "So I hope that you will not be wilful."

Ella's brows are tightly knitted together. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and turn away.

Elder Hilda turned towards Ezra with a friendly expression and said, "I hope that you can give me face and resolve the conflict you have with Ella while taking this opportunity to turn an enemy into a friend."

Ezra let out a bitter laugh. Elder Hilda may appear kind and friendly, but she was obviously a formidable person. If they were to reject, based on Elder Hilda's words, they would be disrespecting her as an elder.

Ezra fell silent for a brief moment. Her eyes seemed to swirl in thought as the corners of her mouth raised slightly. "I can help… but she has to ask herself."

Ella Abella's eyes immediately widened, her full chest heaving slightly.

In the end, Ella was unable to speak the words from her mouth, her gorgeously pretty face a blend of anger and shame. How could she not know that Ezra wanted to make her bow.

However, given her unbending and stubborn character, it was obviously not going to be easy to make her submit.
