Evening.
As the sun set below the horizon, the ant colonies scattered across the island jungles clocked out right on time and returned to their nests.
...
Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid didn't dare be careless. They patiently waited until deep into the night before setting out, finding the right position, choosing the wind direction, and retracting the Dominating Throne.
"Ink Orchid, remember to hold your breath. Don't leave behind any scent."
Dragon Cypress reminded.
"I know!"
Ink Orchid responded confidently, "When it comes to concealing scent, Flower Mantis warriors are ten thousand times better than ants."
An ant's sense of smell is ultra-sensitive; even a trace of scent from breathing could be caught by them.
But, ants probably can't fly...
So far, Soul-Setting Ability only detected ants...
Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid weren't particularly worried. They held their breath and quietly landed on the island.
