Strongest Prince Becomes Legendary Chef
The Eternal Forest II

Lycus frowned, it turned out that Cake Caprese could not melt Helena's heart.

“Are you still angry because I forced you to marry you?” Lycus said in a low voice—hampir inaudible in the ears of the Elf Swordsmen guarding around the Helena Tree House. “Is your heart still tied to Alex? If so, then forget about him because he has been in a melee in Ella City and the Emperor will definitely catch him.”

Helena who heard Alex was about to be captured by the Emperor immediately shed tears. He was afraid they would never see each other again.

His chest was tight and wondered what would Sarah be like if Alex was captured by the Emperor? Will they treat Sarah like any other mixed-blood child, who is ostracized by those around her.

Helena grabbed a paper containing a bright smiling Sarah face painting sent by Damian from the City of Peace a few days ago.

In the letter sent by his right hand, Alex is now a Chef and owns a very famous restaurant there.

When she first read the letter, Helena was thrilled and eager to meet her husband and daughter. However, the Great Elder suddenly tightened the guard on his Tree House so that he could not escape from the Everlasting Forest.

Helena also suspected that the Great Elder would force her to marry Lycus when Lycus knocked on her door. She certainly balked at the idea of marriage, while her own husband still existed and even if Alex had died she would still not want to marry any man.

Helena let out a deep breath as she heard the voice of Lycus that disgusted her. “Lycus... Please don't bother me anymore.”.

Lycus finally smiled widely after hearing Helena's long-inaudible voice in his ears. He was about to knock on Helena Tree House, but he stopped doing so because to melt a woman's heart could not be done in an instant. “Alright Helena... I will put Cake Caprese in front of your house and eat even one bite so that you do not get sick,” said Lycus while turning around and away from the house of the Helena Tree.

After the Helena Tree House was heavily guarded by the Elf Swordsman, Helena had never tasted food again. He always refused to open the door of his house so that the Elf Servants were forced to bring back the food they had brought for him.

“Cih, I'd rather die than obey your wishes!” Helena sneered at Lycus and the Great Elder Elf.

...***...

Alex did not expect the borders of the Eternal Forest Kingdom with the Hazel Empire to be heavily guarded by high-ranking Swordsmen. She suspects Damian's words are true that Helena will be forced to marry Lycus.

“High fly, Pegasus!” alex exclaimed so that the Swordsmen at the border were unaware of their existence.

Pegasus instantly flew towered behind the clouds in the sky.

“Lycus... It seems like our brotherly relationship is quite up here only! One of us has to leave this world forever,” muttered Alex and suddenly his blood immediately boiled so that the element of fire churned that made his body filled with flames.

“Eh, Father... You're on fire!” sarah shouted while sticking her palm on Alex's chest, then a torrent of water that was very swift to throw Alex from the back of Pegasus.

It took a few breaths for Alex to realize what had happened to him, then he shouted loudly for Pegasus to catch his falling body at high speed.

“Hey, quickly return me to your back or we will be caught by the Swordsmen down there!” alex grumbled, but Pegasus still grinned and flew parallel to him. “Alright, when we return to Restaurant I will make you gulai Ubi Leaves pound one big bucket.” Alex must obey Pegasus' will so that he is returned to the back of his pet monster.

“Wah, happy Pegasus.. Finally I want to make you Mashed Sweet Potato Leaves,” said Sarah was happy to hear it.

Alex breathed a sigh of relief after returning to Pegasus' back. If only he had fallen from this height, maybe his body would have been smashed to pieces even though he was a Swordsman who had a physique above the average ordinary population.

However, he was a little curious; did his physique grow stronger after absorbing the power of the God Hercules? But he did not dare to jump from his current height to prove it.

After flying for Thirty minutes in the territory of the Eternal Forest, Alex had Pegasus land in a very quiet place or no Elves wandering there.

“Follow us from the sky and when I whistle, come and pick us up!” alex exclaimed at Pegasus who immediately nodded his head to understand Alex's words. Then Pegasus flew up and disappeared in the sky.

Alex added rubber ears to his ears to look similar to the pointed Elf ears, while Sarah did not need to be added anymore because the physical is similar to Elf.

“Let's pick up your mom, Sarah!” Alex held Sarah who looked nervous and clearly heard the sound of her heartbeat pounding.

“What does my mother's face look like, Dad? Does she look like Sarah?” sarah asked Alex, and she asked him that question a thousand times.

Alex smiled warmly and replied as usual, “Your mother is as beautiful as you and she is also very kind. He can't come see you because there are obstacles that keep him stuck in the Eternal Forest.”

Usually Sarah will be happy after hearing Alex's answer. This time, however, he was stunned.

Alex suspects Sarah is very nervous and can't think of what she'll say when she meets Helena, moreover, this was their first meeting after she was separated from Helena when she had just been born into this world.

Alex pinches Sarah's tiny cheeks while smiling warmly and saying, “Don't worry... I will help you to get familiar with your mother.”

Sarah looked at Alex's face with sparkling eyes. “Good, Dad!”

The sound of a thunderclap suddenly broke the silence of the forest there and a black shadow shot over the trees that sped towards the capital of the Eternal Forest Kingdom.

“Hmm, the weather is sunny, why does the sound of lightning bang? Will it rain soon?” muttered 2nd level Elf Swordsman who was hiding in the bushes waiting for the passing Monster. “Ha-ghost!” He was surprised to see a black shadow flashed in front of him and also heard the sound of children's laughter that made the feathers stand up.

The Elf youth immediately ran over the ridge and fell down several times so scared of him. He finally understood why this place was called the Forest of Silence, it was because this Forest was very haunted and there were Ghosts who inhabited it.

“Oh, Goddess Luna please save me!” The Elf youth was praying in his mind. “If I manage to get out of the Forest of Silence then I will visit and pray in Your Temple every day,”.
