Chapter 52 - Emergence of Darkness 2 (1/2)
”Here, the reports and the footage of what happened!” A guild worker shouted and ran towards the man, sitting on the chair of Vice-Guild Leader. He had silver hair, reaching his shoulders. He was Hajime.
He came to this World half a year ago. Initially, he came here for sightseeing but who knew that Guild would be attacked during his stay.
Him being one of the Vice-Guild Leader, he had to take care of the mess. Since Wang Lei was nowhere to be seen.
”Have you got the footage of what happened to the investigation team?” He said to guild staff who hurriedly went out and brought the profound footage with him.
Looking at the footage, Hajime frowned. ”What do you think, Cang Yue?” he asked looking towards his side, where Cang Yue was sitting with Caliburn between her legs.
”I don't know. According to the information, this beast should be a dark beast but it doesn't use darkness profound energy but something even more sinister.” She said with a deep frown on her delicate brows.
Hajime hearing her also become quiet. He was not from this world and all the knowledge he had was from the manuals provided to the Guild.
Though he trains in Primordial Energy now, his knowledge about it is still not enough.
The whole room descend into silence when Qingyue said, ”Should we go ourselves to check it?”
Other hearing her looked at her before Tio shook her head, ”We can't. We know nothing of that beast and according to the reports he is definitely above Sovereign Realm. Without Wang Lei, going there is the same as committing suicide.” He said.
”But we should be able to create a light barrier around that area,” Yue said.
Other hearing her nodded. If they could minimize the damage and wait for Wang Lei to come back, then it was indeed a better option.
”We should leave then,” Miledi said, seriously.
”I will stay here then,” Hajime said.
He couldn't use light magic so, instead, he thought of staying behind.
The girls nodded and left the HGB.
They are divided into three teams.
Qingyue and Yue; Shea and Shizuku — came with Hajime; Miledi, and Tio.
Remia was none combatant as she usually stayed with Dongxue and took care of Nuwa and Myu.
”What in Heaven happened here?!” Yun Che said looking towards the dead land. ”Do you know anything about it Jasmine?” he came here thinking he might find something interesting here but after seeing the land and monster, he was scared. The fear came from deep within his heart. Telling him to flee.
Jasmine looked at the land with a serious look, ”Leave this place immediately Yun Che!” she said.
Since the time Wang Lei has met them, most of the time her mind was occupied by him as to how he looked similar to her brother. She was wondering if he is her brother's reincarnation or something.
Yun Che hearing urgency in her voice understood that going in that land was asking for his death. He was also quite resentful of Wang Lei as how he looked down on him. He wanted to get stronger faster.
For that, he was doing Guild Quests so he can earn enough CP to buy pills. When he first looked at the pills that Guild sold, he was shocked since he had no knowledge of such pills.
Even Jasmine was shocked since even in God Realm, such pills were rare. Such as 'Crowning Empyrean Pill' that lets you jump a whole level in Sovereign Realm without any difficulty. She was intrigued. She really wanted to know the master of the Guild.
'I should leave then.' Yun Che thought. He was at True Profound Realm right now — with the help of the Guild. And could tell that this area was not something a True Profound Realm participant should enter.
He wanted to participate in the Guild Competition since he knew if he won, then the price would be tremendous. The connection alone would be enough.
As he was about to leave, he heard a beautiful and smooth voice that would send one is reminiscent of happy moments of their lives.
”Brother, can you leave this place? It is dangerous here.”
He looked back and was dumbstruck by the beauties standing behind him. Each and everyone one of them looked otherworldly. He felt his blood rushing to his head, hurriedly shaking his head, Yun Che said, ”Who might you be, Fairy?”
He asked the girl in the front.
She smiled gratefully as she said, ”I am Cang Yue, Vice-Guild Leader and these are my sisters.”
Yun Che hearing her was surprised. It was the first time he has met or sees the Vice-Guild Leader.
Inside the peal, Jasmine was shocked but for a whole, another reason, 'Every one of them is younger than twenty! And all of them are the peak of Sovereign! Who are they? Vice-Guild Leader? Does that mean she knows the real master of the Guild?'
Yun Che looked at every six fairies. He looked at Shizuku who was wearing clothing that he has never seen but despite that, she looked beautiful.
Shizuku was a swordswoman and was cultivating Sacred Spring Immortal Physique that affected her countenance and mannerism, making her look otherworldly.
”Are you going to do something about this darkness?” Yun Che asked. He, and also Jasmine, were quite interested in them and what they were going to do; especially, Yun Che who wanted to know more about them.
Cang Yue thought but before she could say something Miledi said, ”Hai hai~, the great Miledi-sama is going to save the day~” girls just smiled wryly since they were quite used to her personality at this point.
Cang Yue shook her head and said, ”If you want to stay then stay but don't cause any trouble or don't blame us if something happened to you.” She said and started to fly towards the dead land.
Yun Che wanted to follow them but was stopped by Jasmine, ”What? I am just following them to see if they need my help in any way.” He said.
”Are you an idiot? Every one of those girls are at Peak of Sovereign Realm, what can you help them with?” jasmine said.
Hearing her he was astonished as every girl was Sovereign Realm since he could tell that none were that old. He thought that they were at Sky or Emperor Realm since that was normal now in Blue Wind or Profound Continent.
”Just don't go to close but maintain a certain distance,” Jasmine said since she herself was quite interested in what they are going to do.
She had knowledge of certain things that people of this planet were unaware of. She needed some more information to confirm her guess.
