Chapter 2183 - Green Fire (2/2)
”You knew about them?” I asked in great surprise; other than me, only four people have known about it and tested it outside. I don't think they saw me tasting it. I would have sensed the Grandmaster unless it is someone of Lord Parks caliber with powerful stealth ability is tailing me.
”The Pyramid has eyes and ears everywhere, Micheal.” Lord Parks replied without looking up from the crystal petals, which he observed with his shining eyes, and this time, it is not emotions that are making them shine but ability.
”We have been waiting for it. If you had not brought this to me in a week, I would have asked you about them myself,” he said.
I felt a little irked by his spying, but soon my anger calmed down. The Pyramid keeps eyes on everyone, both the Grimm Monsters and their own. It might seem like controlling and paranoid behavior, but it is something we have learned to do by thousands of years fighting against the Grimm Monster.
It is a necessity, and it has often protected many talented humans from dying and committing great mistakes.
Though I am still uncomfortable knowing I have been spied on, and likely many of my secrets are now known to the Pyramid.
”This is great; it will help us a lot in producing the high-level essence roses that now you don't have to go out kill those high-level Grimms yourself,” He said and closed the boxes, completely unbothered by a secret he had just revealed and how uncomfortable I am feeling.
”These are the most dangerous things I have produced, and if not used wisely, it will get lot more humans killed than turning the Grimm Monsters into the essence roses,” I said seriously.
”Yes, they are dangerous. Only those with great self-control and powerful binding abilities should have these,” He said, first time putting serious expressions on his face.
I am not surprised by his accurate deduction, they have known about the petals for weeks, and it is enough time to analyze all the factors, especially the risks associated with it.
”I just hope that Pyramid would not be lax,” I cautioned again. These are too dangerous to fall into the hands of ill-tempered fellows or those who take too many risks.
”Don't worry, we will be careful with who we give these petals to,” He said and turned to me.
”These will be quite useful in war efforts, and if you want anything other than your usual resources, don't hesitate to ask,” he said. Hearing it, a smile couldn't help but appear on my face.
”Yes, there is something I want,” I said. ”What is it? as long as it is not something Grand Lords require or immediate need Pyramid or someone, we will give it to you?” He asked while calmly putting some restrictions on the way.
”I want green fire,” I said simply.
