Chapter 1969 - Sound Sucking Bamboo Forest (1/2)

”These cloaks really take quite a lot of energy,” Elina said as she removed her cloaks, and beautiful black wings revealed themselves before disappearing behind her.

”I thought you would struggle to match me despite high level, but I guess I am wrong again,” she said as she looked at me; despite such a tiring fly across the desert, there is barely any sweat on my forehead. ”Your Bloodline gives you amazing speed; I would have struggled to match it we were at the same level,” I said.

Hearing that, she arched her sculpted brow at me, ”So, you are saying, I could not outfly you even if we were at the same level?” She asked; to that, I just smiled.

”One day, I will out leveled you and wipe that smug smile off your face,” She said and moved toward the sound-sucking bamboo forest or a silent bamboo forest. The forest is filled with trees that absorb any sound that touches them, a perfect place for the murderous.

These sound-sucking bamboo trees are not really that powerful; they are above average trees which have an uncanny ability to such sound, a very useful ability, I might add.

They are only special to this ruin; seeing their specialty to create a natural soundproofing place, many people took their seeds and plants, but not a single one of them was able to grow. These trees could only be grown in this place which is kind of regretful; I would have loved to have some of them around my lakehouse.

We went inside the forest and moved with incredible speed, without caring for the sound we created as it could not be sensed.

Ashlyn had sensed a couple of Grimm Monsters and humans in the forest; they are pretty far away from us and would not be able to sense us even if they use their soul power with the full power.

”There is a mid-Elite Flame Horn Bullman in front of us,” I said as Ashlyn had shown me the flash, ”I want to fight it; in the last ruin I had gone, I did not get a chance to fight the Grimm Monster, it wall all the marsh monster,” She said.

”We can not waste any time; you only have an hour. If you did not finish the, I would finish it for you,” I said. ”An hour will be more than enough,” she said and disappeared from her spot.

Earlier she had said she wanted to fight against the Grimm Monster to test her recent increse; while I would not encourage such behavior as it is time wasting and might attract needless trouble but Elina had been sad since I had seen her and I feel fighting a Grimm Monster would cheer her up, I would be if I were sad.

It took her a minute to reach the Fire Horn Bullman, and they started fighting a second later; the Grimm Monster had begun with its usual threatening bullshit, but Elina did not give it any chance to finish up and attacked.
