Chapter 368: Advices (2/2)
”Nah, I can't teach anyone. That's the pact I have with my mentor. How about you? You can do it, no?”
”I am too lazy to do it. Besides, he is better to learn it from another human because whatever they teach will suit him.” Clot shook her head. ”I am not sure whether there is another human capable of teaching him, but yeah, you seriously need a mentor. Even if it's not a protector, as long as there is someone who understands how a protector fights, I am sure you will become one sooner or later.”
”I understand. I will do my part in this area.” Kai nodded. He had a clue about their existence and had been searching for them, so Kai took their suggestions and became more excited to find an ancient civilization that still survived until now.
The problem would be the lack of information. He didn't know whether the ancient civilization wanted to teach him about this or they might not even be aware of this power because of the passing time. If that time came, he might return to this place to ask for their advice.
”Alright. It's time for you to go. I don't have anything to say to you. How about you, Clot?”
”Nope.”
”Do you want to say something?” The dolphin then asked Kai.
Kai thought for two minutes before shaking his head. ”I just want to thank you for everything. It's all new to me.”
”Haha...Don't hesitate to come here. We always welcome a friend. Alright, see you later.”
Clot nodded.
”See you later.” Kai smiled, turned around, and looked to the sky. A magic circle appeared on the ground and launched him to the sky. After that, another pair of magic circles, one above and one below, stabilized Kai positioned in the sky, allowing him to stay afloat.
He looked at the two and waved his hands. ”I am going. Thank you for all the things you have told me. I will keep everything in my mind.”
”Yes. Don't forget to visit me in the future. You will be amazed at my place.” The dolphin ducked down, swimming at a fast speed. Suddenly, it shot to the sky as if it was his way to send him off.
Clot only raised one of her claws.
Kai suddenly felt the wind enveloping him as if protecting him on his return trip. The wind was warm and block the chilly night breeze.
He kept smiling and flew back to their base.
To his surprise, none of them was asleep. They were waiting for Kai to return.
”You guys…” Kai thought they had slept, considering the time was already 3 AM.
”We are worried about you.” Michelle rolled her eyes.
”Indeed. Especially after you made us leave.” Tasha nodded in agreement.
Ayaka and Sofia exchanged looks and shrugged since the two had told him the reason.
”So, you know about the shadow, Captain?” Evan asked.
”Yes. But I am sorry, I can't tell you anything.” Kai smiled gently, not knowing how to apologize.
”It's fine. I guess all the things you said to that general were a lie,” Evan commented.
”It's not a lie, you dummy.” Isabelle turned to Evan and looked at him as if looking at a fool. ”He is talking about himself. Everything is himself. The guide, the ears, and the person.”
Kai scratched the back of his head. ”Yes. That's about it. But I hope you keep this a secret. I don't lie about the fact that it might affect humanity as a whole.”
”Don't worry. We know about the severity of this matter. Well, as long as we keep this matter a secret and tell them we have no knowledge about what was happening here, we should be fine.” Tommy nodded.
”There is a drug as well, but everything is very vague, so he might be targeted in the future.” Isabelle narrowed her eyes.
”Right. We agree, especially if there is a new election. The change might or might not affect us.” Eve and Eva nodded at the same time.
”Haha…I am just proud to know someone like you. If it's something because of me, I won't hesitate to throw my life away because of my failure. This is a promise.” Nicholas gave a thumb up.
Kai smiled as he felt blessed to have comrades like this. ”Thank you.”
