Chapter 947: Annoyance (1/2)
Saber Monarch is looking at the flying metallic bug with a look of surprise. He is examining from different angles as it flew around him.
”Hello, Saber Monarch. I am the friend the Five-elemental King spoke of. I am Sam.”
Sam's voice was heard through the bug. But the Saber Monarch didn't reply at all. He is still looking at the metallic bug like a kid who got a new toy. He was extremely curious and whenever he tried to catch it, it tried to dodge him. But the bug's speed is no match for his speed.
He caught it pretty easily.
”Don't do anything to it. It would be hard to create another distraction to send another device in. Just let if free and talk.”
Sam said once again. But this guy is too curious to put it down.
”What kind of communication system is this? How come I get to speak to you without using spiritual sense?”
”Because, that is how I made that thing. Not only can I speak to you, I can see you picking your nose like a toddler.”
As soon as he said that, the Saber monarch embarrassedly took out his finger from him nose and looked around in shock.
”You can really see me?”
”Yes, I can. Now can we talk about something important?”
Sam sounded exasperated. Back at the hiding spot, as Agar and Five-Elemental King looked into the crystal tablet, even they felt extremely frustrated by Saber Monarch's behavior. It has been almost thirty minutes since they sent the scroll in.
But they only got the signal before five minutes. God knows what this guy did all this while. And even after activating the bug, he still didn't talk anything useful.
Sam almost had second thoughts about recruiting this guy. Five elemental King is young for his cultivation, but he behaved wiselu, he even has an air of a scholar around him. But the Saber Monarch is completely behaving like a kid.
When a message came for him to activate something that could help me get out of that prison he was in, his first reaction to play with the thing and when the thing is giving out voice of someone that is willing to help him, his reaction is to ask how they reached him.
He got his priorities completely wrong and he is completely focusing on the wrong thing.
”Do you or do you not want to get out of this place?” Sam almost yelled out loud.
”Of course, I want to.”
”Then just speak already. If you want to, I will explain how I can speak through that bug when you came out of that. Until then, just tell me what I ask for and do what I told you to do.”
”Okay. What do you want me to do?” He finally asked this and Sam felt relieved to say the least.
”First, I want to know where the formation nodes are. This formation is extremely high grade and I cannot deduce the whole network of it just looking at it from outside. I want you to find all the energy nodes and for that you have to move around the maze along with the bug.”
”Move around the maze? I don't want to do that.”
Sam took a deep breath and asked.
”Why?”
”Because it is confusing.”
”I don't want you to find a way out of the maze damn it. I just want you to move around in the maze with the bug. Just think of it as taking an aimless walk in the garden.”
”But this is not a garden. There would be no walls in the garden.” The Saber monarch spoke as he laid down on the ground and held the bug with his hands stretched out aiming at his own face and continued.
”Anyway, what is the point of moving around the Maze if you don't want me to find the way? Is Five-Elemental King there?”
Sam is almost losing it and asked the Five-elemental King to speak.
”Bert, it is me.” He spoke and then the Saber Monarch's voice suddenly became brighter and there is a wide smile on his face.
”Hey Pent. It is nice talking to a friend after a long time. And who is this Sam guy? Is he even as smart as you made him to be? I mean what is the point of walking around in a maze if you don't want to find the way out.”
