Chapter 314 - A Familiar Renewal Part Five (2/2)
”Sifiso…”, he mumbled the name of the individual he needed to meet. His only clue as to who he really was surfaced in his thought as he prepared himself for the future research he would do in the Core. ”Looks like I won't have many trouble searching him in this small area.”, he added.
The small area he spoke about was the dense and compact jungle of steel sheet that formed the Core. Strictly speaking, the area wasn't small, and could even be said to be the size of a city in itself. But when put in comparison to the humongous size of the main district, and the even bigger lands of the factory district.
Its size couldn't be seen as anything but ridiculously crooked and small. A far cry from the streets of the main district that entered his eyes when he crossed the energy shield surrounding the city-state.
The beast under him came to a stop after another minute of travel, and stood dozens of meters behind of the small vehicle that came to a stop. Fell's keen gaze landed on a man that had descended from the vehicle.
Seeing that it was Leove, Fell rose to his feet and stepped once before appearing next to the squad leader without producing any sound. In the eye of the experimented soldier, Fell's figure seemed to have entered an invisible spatial portal that made him appear right next to him.
”Incredible…”, Leove thought in his mind as he tried hiding the surprise induced by the soundless movement technique before exclaiming in a polite tone. ”We have arrived, Sir.”
Fell nodded as he understood the underlying meaning of the squad leader. He turned around, and stepped once, appearing on the head of the creature with the help of his incredulous movement technique. He crouched, and recovered Akainmhar's body before jumping toward the vehicle.
His movement appeared to be instantaneous. Even without the execution of his spatial step, none of the soldiers was capable enough to track the shadow left by his figure when he moved.
Leove's eyes opened widely as he noticed the individual at the end of Fell's hand. He recognized the flaming patch of red hair, and was pleasantly surprised to see the same figure that had raged war with them- outside of the city- during the past three days.
”Is he injured?”, asked Leove as he knew how much of an otherworldly phenomenon the red haired man was. Thankfully, the answer he received from Fell caused him to confirm that such individuals couldn't be taken down with usual means.
”Just spent up. Albeit a bit too much…”, Fell added before turning his neck to the side. Fell's sight landed on the immobile towering creature that was watching his strong master interact with his food.
”You can go play around.”, he briskly spoke before adding. ”Kill anything that resemble me, or them.”, he added while pointing the individuals in the vehicle before continuing. ”And I won't hesitate to turn you into nutritious paste.”
His threat worked instantly as the towering creature understood every nuance of his words. A red massive shadow flashed in front of their eyes before disappearing through the sea of factories.
”Truly the same as a dog…”, muttered an incredulous Leove that found it troublesome to hide his surprise. ”Let us go, Sir.”, he added while inviting the young cultivator to follow them inside of the car.
”You're method are truly unknown.”, he added while leaving his seat to Fell. He waited for the young cultivator to sit down, before doing the same on the seat that faced Fell.
”Nothing special.”, responded Fell that didn't find the feat particularly impressive. He had seen how Thol'Yr had managed to turn the entire army of creatures into a working set of meridians.
His realm of existence, and his point of view on the world had drastically changed with his awakening. His entire set of memory was lost in that event, but his soul could now connect with the universal laws with ease, and the only thing that seemed to have downgraded due to that was his knowledge about his past.
Externally and internally, Fell was no longer the same person. But the karma he has sown didn't make it possible for him to brush his obscure past.
