Fourth asked impatiently.

”It should be within the tribe. It was always sealed in a chamber where only the current king could enter.”

Pefile replied.

”It looks like we will have to visit your tribe after you caused chaos within it.”

Nineteenth said.

”How did you...” Pefile was surprised at first, but he remembered. ”Is it also recorded with the book?”

Pefile's eyes fell on the book created after Nineteenth touched Celine's forehead.

”It is.” Nineteenth smiled. ”Though I'm surprised that a realm of your race existed. It is not within my records. It is very likely the work of your goddess that stopped us from detecting it. As it appeared, your goddess really loved her creations and let your tribe live within a sub realm inside the Mortal Dimension.”

”Their race is something that relied on humans to continue on,” Mark spoke. ”If their race were also thrown into the Spirit Dimension, they could only last a few hundred years before getting extinct.”

”That is true.”

Nineteenth agreed.

”Anyway, let's go!” Fourth yelled out loud. ”We need to get that artifact!”

”Can you wait a bit?” Mark interjected on the three-eyed girl's enthusiasm. ”I want to go too, but we are not done here yet.”

They could only turn at Mark, who was still in the middle of healing his scorched burns.

”Your regeneration slowed down.” Nineteenth noticed. ”It's not surprising. You got scorched by energy belonging to the God of the Sky. Gods like him are the bane of people like you who had the thick blood of an Evil God.”

”HUH?!”

With Nineteenth's words, some people around listening were frozen. After all, not everyone in Mark's current group was in the know of the situation. Especially for Berrak, who was a user of magic. It was a very shocking piece of information.

”Do you really have to say that out loud?”

Mark complained with a frown.

”Is something wrong?” Nineteenth smiled. ”I believe that it would just be a matter of time. Besides, there should be nothing wrong with people you trust to know about it. We need as much help that we can get when that time came.”

Mark fell silent. The deal with him and the eyes, it could only be a matter of time.

”Okay, we'll wait,” Fourth said begrudgingly as she turned to Nineteenth. ”Should we fix that fracture first while waiting? We can't leave it for too long.”

”We?” Nineteenth tilted her head. ”I believe that it is your duty to fix that.”

”HEY!” Fourth pouted. ”That fracture is too large! It will take me half a day to close that alone!”

”Hah...” Nineteenth sighed. ”Alright. I'll help. I'll also request Master to ask help from the others.”

Fourth could not help but smile as Nineteenth agreed to help her.

Nineteenth then turned to Mark.

”We will fix the fracture first. It would be a bad situation if minor assimilation occurred before the intended time.”

With those words, the two Eyes left Mark's group temporarily.

It was when Mark was swarmed with questions from the others.

”Boss, are you a descendant of an Evil God? No wonder you're too powerful!”

Berrak voiced out curiously.

”Hah...” Mark sighed. ”I'm not. She only said that I have the blood of an Evil God. It doesn't necessarily mean that I'm a descendant of one.”

”I see...”

Berrak nodded. Still, he was pretty excited knowing that the person that recruited him was not just some powerful demon.

To the side, Emika was silently staring at Mark with glittering eyes. The latter could only ignore the green-haired girl.

It was when Amihan spoke to Mark.

”Master, isn't our goal here only to retrieve Pefile's wife? I believe that it's not necessary for us to fight that monster since we already achieved our goal.”

That question made the others agree. After all, it was clear that Mark almost died just by one attack of that creature. Yet, here he was, wanting to deal with that creature.

None of them here had the courage to face such a creature. Comparing them to a godly existence was like comparing an ant to a whale.

”You're right about that. We can just leave already.” Mark replied. ”But don't think that it's unnecessary for us to fight that. Remember that it's an infected. Moreover, one that mutated by absorbing the magical energy of a god. If we leave it alone, it will get stronger and stronger. Soon, it could turn into something that could sink the whole country, or worse, the whole world. We need to deal with that now that it is still weaker. Especially since we can get help right now.”

Mark then turned to the direction that the two Eyes flew towards.

”After the second wave, the gods would not be able to stay in this world anymore. We will have fewer cards to play to deal with that thing. Not to mention that it will definitely get stronger.”

Those words from Mark made everyone realize how urgent it was to kill that gigantic crocodile. They had not thought about the things Mark mentioned.

As for Mark, he had a different reason for thinking that way.

With Freed's memories clear in his mind, he remembered the origin of the monster that destroyed Eriellis.

It was a monster that was left alone because no one was able to deal with it. Freed's group left it, thinking that they could become stronger in the future and would be able to deal with that creature.

However, reality betrayed them.

That very creature grew faster than they imagined and became the cause of their planet's destruction.

Mark did not want to make the same mistake.

Though for the most part...

Mark just wanted to see what kind of [Mental Crystal] and [Mutagen Stone] could he get from that monster.
