330 Going on a trip (1/2)

”Oh boy… You met the first specimen that uses a different way to grow stronger and you are already smitten by his technique? How about trying to reach some more profound place and then learning it?”

But it's not like I can just teleport out to civilisation from this area! Unless you want to tell me that so far, your teleportation windows were throwing me to random places just to prank me!

”...”

What, you don't know what to say now? Did I hit the spot?

”It's not like I was capable of directing the windows before… And even now, I'm unable to do so from here, because there is something interfering with my influence deep in this island forest! Just like near your own stronghold, where the sheer amount of energy gathered there makes me unable to pave new spatial paths!”

Okay then, let's drop this. What about the technique I learned from this ugly guy then? Should I just drop the idea or attempt to learn something from it?

”Well… It's not like I can order or forbid you from doing anything, can I? I can only advise you to be careful with what techniques are you willing to implement. After all, it's not like a human body can survive constant modifications without some strange aftereffects, that you would learn only after being hit by them!”

I didn't think about it… I guess I was too caught up with the first real pointer that you offered me back then, that I was simply too eager to find some other means of raising my strength. I admit, my bad!

When someone was wrong, it was only right to admit it. Trying to forcefully push one's point despite acknowledging the other side arguments was the way of acting for the stupid people!

Knock knock.

Before I was even able to go as far as to eat a single piece of the meat, the knocking on the doors broke my line of thoughts and discussion with Bonger, forcing me to focus back on the current matters.

”Come in!”

The second my words left my mouth, a big posture stormed inside the room, as if with the intention of smashing everything inside to the bits.

With how sudden the intrusion was, it took me a short moment to realise that this fuming in rage person, was indeed just the overlord!

After looking around the room for a long moment while accompanied by my shocked and ridiculing expression, the man finally calmed down and turned to me.

”The trip is ready. Would you mind to follow me?”
