Chapter 121 - No lazy life for Ruik. (1/2)

After Krune's group left, Mile looked at Bary and asked him.

”What if the seers try to use divination to find them?”

Bary pondered a bit and said.

”I asked for the seers to use divination to find the location of those who escaped from the Mohie Sect, but do you know what they told me?”

Mile shook her head.

”They can't use divination on them. For some reason, every time the seers try, no answer appears. It is as if everything about Krune is covered by a blanket of darkness, that's what they said.”

Mile then asked.

”So how did they find the Mohie Sect entrance?”

Bary nodded his head.

”According to the seers, there is a difference between using divination to find a place and find a person. The way that both affect the destiny energy is different. That means, the Mohie Sect didn't have anything covering its existence, so its opening affected the destiny energy greatly. But Krune is an individual, trying to use divination to find the place of a single cultivator or demon beast is much harder. And like I said, the seers felt that something is intervening when they try to use divination to find him.”

Mile pondered a bit and then asked.

”Then what about Krune's companions?”

Bary also thought about that.

”I guess it is because they are too close to Krune. That made them be covered by the same blanket of darkness. I can't think about anything else since the seers also can't find anything about them.”

Mile was really surprised, just what could be protecting Krune? Or better, is there something protecting him at all? Maybe it is Krune himself?

Both Bary and Mile couldn't tell.

”But that's a good thing, who would want to be seen if they had the choice? So I hope this continues like this. Once everyone in the Mohie Sect at the moment notices that they don't have enough time to become legacy disciples, they would try to find Krune and his group. But it now became a hopeless act.”

Mile nodded and admitted that it was really a good thing.

Krune's group had just left Bary's office when they saw Tasier and Lofa walking towards them. Only now, after all the tumult, did they remember that those two would come here.

Lofa came first and complimented Krune first of all. She seemed especially happy. Krune wondered if something good happened to her.

”Good to see you again. How's your training going along?”

Lofa nodded and said.

”It's okay, I have to ask Shinja and Yusa to see my progress, though. After that, I will try to adjust whatever I need. Oh, right! I brought the spirit stones that I promised.”

Lofa then gave Krune a spatial ring, but Krune didn't even look inside. He turned to Shinja and Yusa and tossed it to them.

”You were the ones who have been training her for real until now, so this is for you. I only gave her a few pointers here and there.”

But then he turned to Tasier, who was behind and said.

”As for you, I want my payment indeed. Hahaha!”

Tasier couldn't care less though, that amount of spirit stones really isn't much for him. On his neck, there was a necklace with some spatial rings that he used to carry his things. He used his spiritual energy to take one out and gave it to Krune.

”There are over ten thousand Rank Five low-quality spirit stones inside, it should cover for all my apprenticeship. If you are free, I want you to take a look at my progress at the moment.”

Krune nodded and said.

”I have something to resolve today, so I won't be able to accompany you. But tomorrow I'm free all day, with this many spirit stones I will give you a full course.”

Tasier eyes lit up and nodded. Krune had just come back from that 'Secret Mission' that he heard about, so it was understandable that he had some things to fix after that.

Shinja and Yusa left with Lofa while Ao went to look for Arlan. It's been over a month and a half already, so Arlan should have arrived as well. Krune then went back to his room and brought out Lakin, Cassy, Dier, and Ruik. He then explained what he heard from Bary and what he was planning to do.

Ruik was the first one to talk.

”Haha! So I will really leave this planet! I always thought that I would live and die here but look at me now. I'm going to the Divine Path Sect! So what if I become a menial disciple? That would be a dream for anyone that I know back in the katiu Forest! This grandfather will rise up in the ranks!”
