Chapter 2202 - Greed (1/2)

”We are now just two hours away from that place,” Rhea said, and her voice was very serious when she said it.

”We have to be very careful from now Micheal, the last time we were here. We have discovered several powerful Master class Grimms, including a vidette, and there was even a Grandmaster,” she said, and it couldn't help but surprise me.

This was not a part of the information she had provided me or told Lord Whitman about it. I had already suspected something there was more to it than what she had told me, and now it is time she told me the truth.

'What had truly happened?' I asked; she seemed to have been expecting that question as a small smile appeared on her face.

'Greed happened,' She replied before opening the map. 'Jim is trapped in a place called melody garden.

It is a vast herbal farm with thousands of herbs that would be useful to Masters, Grandmaster and even those above,' she while showing the spot and highlighting the area it is covering, which is quite big.

'We did not plant to go inside it seeing it is filled with thousands of formations, and a high number of them are broken ones,'

'We have accidentally entered that place through the broken formation and found a huge harvest, anything like we have ever found before, and we let our greed drive our thoughts.

'Before we understood what was happening, Jim had found himself in any very dangerous broken formation which he could not break out with his own power.' She said with a regretful sigh.

'It is not your fault,' I said as I patted her shoulders gently. I know Jim well, and he is a clear-minded fellow. Though he had glaring weaknesses, through which he could not think straight. First is his girlfriend Sarah, and the other is alchemy.

I have seen how he behaves when he finds resources that could help him with research and let him create new things.

He became a hyperactive kid who had no thoughts for the consequence. I have sure, after seeing those resources, he wanted to acquire them, believing he could take them without triggering any formations, but it seemed like he was wrong.

Now he is trapped, and we have no idea whether he is alive or not as it had been nearly a week since he got trapped in the formation, and many things could happen in a week.

'Let's move and get that bastard out of there,' I said, and we began to move again, but we had to stop not long after.

ROAR ROAR ROAR

”Fuck!” I cursed, not able to stop myself as I had heard the familiar roars. These roars are definitely from the boar Grandmaster, and faint electrical discharge in the air is proof that it is definitely it.

The roars are faint, but one could sense blazing rage from it, and from what I could gather, it seemed to be attacking something furiously.
