Chapter 45: Unwanted Guest

After some time, a rock fell from the side of the wall on the cave A human body could be seen in the walls of the cave

“Fk” Grey cursed before vory

After the Red Lizard attacked with the Fireball, Grey decided to use his Earth Wall to block the attack Who would have thought that the force from the attack would impale him into the side of the cave Luckily, the Earth Wall he used followed hi him in the wall of the cave

“At least it was able to hide me fro froiven the fact that he was inside the cave with the Lizard being the one close to the exit For Grey to escape, he would have to pass the Lizard, which would have been difficult

“Hmph, it’s lucky I need to turn in this mission, else I would have waited until it returns then teach it a good lesson” Grey snorted coldly

“Crack”

Cracking sounds could be heard fro back

“dah in peace” Grey immediately turned tails and fled the cave without a second thought Who was he kidding, there was no way he would want to face that beast again with his current strength Besides, he was already slightly injured and needed to rest in other to recover his strength

Grey successfully escaped from the area and went in search of a place where he could heal himself without worries Since the injury wasn’t that severe, simple meditation and some tonic would do

The tonic wasproperties “My , I should still have a little over a week left before I hand in the mission” Grey calculated the tione for six days now

“I should heal up before I plan on what next to do” He would take it one step at a tiainst ti

Grey healed up but his body was still a mess, “I haven’t washed up since I ca one gets after washi+ng up Grey decided he would search for a river in the mountain, it shouldn’t be that hard since the Misty Mountain was huge There was bound to be a river so, but he made sure not to head in deeper into thea hard time with the beasts here If he accidentally encounters a stronger beast, there was no telling if he would be as lucky as he was back in the cave

Grey avoidedfor nearly the entire day without any results Hethe last piece of meat he had with him It was already sunset, Grey always finds a place where he would stay before it gets dark co from the south, “Hmm, ould be so foolish todark?” Out of curiosity, Grey headed in the direction the sot there, he was surprised to see a familiar face “It’s them, but why are they still here?” He was puzzled The people he saere the two young ladies from the Idris Academy, Nina, and Tessa

Since Grey was already an acquaintance, he thought it would be best to advise the He walked closer to the ladies heard the sound of footsteps, they i froht Grey was surprised by their reaction but what shocked him most was the state both ladies were in

Their hairs were unkempt and some injuries could be seen on their bodies, they looked visibly exhausted and were pale

“It’s irls were shi+vering in fright

The girls got a closer look at his face before tearing up instantly, they both ran towards hi

Grey was stunned by the sudden intimacy and couldn’t speak for some time
