Chapter 212: Ball of KI (2/2)

Emilia, Bella, and Suika were in the middle of playing a card game. Ed had made it on a whim and used it as a form of entertainment. For some reason, Suika was rather good at it and managed to win 90% of the time regardless of her opponent. Even Ed, the creator, was no match.

”Didn't you guys feel the vibrations?” Ed asked them.

”We did.” Such a harmonious perfectly synced answer made Ed's eyebrows twitch.

”Why didn't you come to check it out?”

”We knew you would check it out, so we left it to you.”

”Enjoy your time” With nothing to say, Ed left them with these words before he left. He returned to his room and spent his time either playing around with his KI or sleeping. The hours went by and the ship arrived on the shore of the Central Continent. Ed and his companions descended first, as no other passenger dared to do it before them.

”We're finally here!” Merry stretched her hands and legs while floating in the air. Ed's group caught the attention of many people on the side of the road. Yet, no one dared to stop them. Sieg's figure and eyes struck fear in their hearts, so much that they averted their eyes. Ed found it displeasing, as he knew it would hurt Sieg's feelings.

Still, they continued their journey. The group encountered the same Koma Inu like primates in the same area where Ed found them last time. Of course, it was a one-sided slaughter. After reaching the tower city, Ed headed straight to the entrance. Unlike last time, he didn't see many people around. Most of them were simply the residents of the city.

”The tower is closed until an issue is solved.” A man standing in front of the entrance told them. Ed felt that things had changed a lot during his absence. Usually, thugs and bandits would be scouting their prey by the entrance. Yet, only the guard was around.

”What issue?”

”A boss monster has gone berserk for over a year on the ninth floor. No one has been able to clear it and many people died. We're waiting until a capable cultivator can stop it.”

While the guard spoke, he failed to notice a grin forming on Ed's face.
