65 Volcanic Cave (1/2)
The next area was just the opposite to the previous one, it was a volcanic area, with rivers of magma flowing everywhere and scorching heat.
”In this place, I will definitely find some legacy that suits me!”
Hyrk was excited after seeing the new area, the possibilities of finding some legacy related to fire or earth were exceptionally high due to the volcanic zone environment.
Hyrk knew that he should get stronger or he wouldn't obtain his revenge and restore his honor.
However, the only way to do it quick enough to surpass those shameless bastards was to find a legacy that suited him.
”Even if there isn't any problem walking in this area, this heat will exhaust us at a fast rate, Nurvey, do you have a spell that can protect us from the heat?”
Nurvey didn't reply, but she cast a spell and immediately everyone felt more refreshed.
Yale couldn't avoid thinking that if Kermu had almost everything in his spatial artifact, Nurvey had a spell solution to practically all the situations.
There wasn't any hidden trap in the volcanic zone; the natural environment was already dangerous enough.
The group had complained before about the difficulty of walking in the ice, but walking in a volcanic terrain was even harder, at least the ice didn't have irregularities as it was created by Yale.
Even with Nurvey's spell, the hot weather was starting to affect them; they didn't want to imagine how strong would be the heat without any protection.
”I can't advance more, the heat is too strong.”
Serka was at her limit; she wasn't good resisting heat as the fire element was her weak point.
”The path ahead seems even more difficult; maybe we should give up and try to reach the next zone without exploring more this one.”
Kermu was worried about Serka; he didn't feel well seeing her suffering by the heat, and he personally didn't like the volcanic zone too much.
”You can wait here if you want, but I will continue ahead. My current self is useless if I don't find anything that makes me stronger. I will try to find a legacy and return afterward. If I fail to return you can continue without me.”
Hyrk was decided to obtain something from the volcanic zone at any cost.
”If you keep going I will go with you, I don't care about the heat or the environment. Furthermore, your chances of survival will increase if we go together.”
Yale was the one who spoke those words.
However, that time he didn't say it to help Hyrk, Yale himself wanted to go to even hotter places.
The reason was that he felt that the heat was full of the fire element and that his body was able to absorb it. If he went to an area with an even denser fire element, he had chances to upgrade his fire element affinity.
Thus, he wanted to try his luck, even if the intense heat burned his body, Auto-regeneration would heal it and may even level up more.
”You two... I know you want to get stronger, but that's too dangerous, maybe we won't be able to meet again.”
Kermu didn't like the idea of splitting the group, but after seeing the serious faces of his teammates, in the end, he accepted it.
”You can go, but you need to bind this tokens first, we will wait until you two returned, but if you die we can't be waiting forever.”
Hyrk accepted the token and bound it, if something happened to him, the others couldn't waste their time waiting.
”I don't need to bind it. Nurvey, can you be in charge of Wyba? She won't be able to resist the heat if she comes with me.”
If Yale died, Wyba would also die, as she was left behind there wasn't any reason to bind a token.
After the problems that happened with the other nobles before, Yale didn't want to leave a proof of his life that could be used to discover him.
If the Zhan Clan's faction who hated his mother obtained it, Yale wouldn't be able to run even if he faked his death.
With Absolute Protection that was easy to do, even the shameless nobles thought they were all dead, but if the other party had a bond token that showed his life state, the other party wouldn't be fooled.
Kermu accepted Yale's words, with Wyba with them there was enough proof of Yale's safety.
Furthermore, few people would believe that Wyba had a life-bound contract with Yale, so the chances of her being kidnapped to track Yale's life were small.
As for Nurvey, she was delighted to be in charge of Wyba.
”We will wait for you in the area that we rested in before, the heat is weaker than here and it would be easier for Nurvey to maintain the heat reduction spell. Good luck and don't die.”
