Chapter 1720 - Precious
Whew, that old woman was quite intense! I said as I flew into the air as I got out of Administrative Hall after three long hours of questioning, more of an interrogation where that old woman would bore down her aura with every question.
Soon, I reached my home, and it is just as I left it; there is not the slightest change in it.
Though the floors looked a little cleaner, the drone must have cleaned a few minutes ago.
The first thing I did after reaching my home was to shower.
I hadn\'t had a shower in a month; the only time I have submerged myself in liquid in the past month was when I am inside the medicinal pond, which does not count as a bath.
I remained in the shower for more than half an hour, washing away all the grime my body had collected a past month.
I close the tap and walked out of the shower, instantly drying myself with my ability before wearing comfortable clothes.
I am feeling slightly hungry, but I am not planning on cooking or eating.
I wanted to sleep.
First, the battle had been too heavy for me, not to forget the strain of not sleeping for a whole month is dawning on me, wanting me to lay on my comfortable bed and close my eyes.
You are alive; I had thought you got yourself killed! A voice spoke in my mind telepathically.
I was a little unlucky and come across an especially powerful monster in the deeper region.
It has taken me nearly two weeks to heal fully. I replied.
The one talking through me was Constance Mars, the Elite Tyrant that I had healed a few months ago.
You have seemed to have made quite a progress, reaching peak Emperor at twenty-one; it is quite a feat. She commented.
A clear surprise could be detected from her stone.
I was just lucky! I replied humbly and heard her snort right after.
If it had been others, I would have believed in luck, but in your Inheritance, there is no luck involved. She said, crushing my humbled reply.
Lady Mars, I have a small request for you I asked her.
What is it if its within my power, I would do it. She said back.
It is nothing that big; I was hoping if you help me expedite my process of exit from Devils Gate! I said to her.
Usually, it is only every six month one could leave the Devil\'s Gate, but that is under the normal conditions.
Things are not normal in Devil\'s Gate; there is a pseudo-war-like condition, and every week new people would come.
Leaving is still difficult, but I could leave with my Sam Duffy identity.
I had already stayed for more than nine months and collected enough merit that I could apply for the exit but seeing the current condition, the higher-ups could delay it.
With the help of someone like Miss Mars, who is from Elite Legion of Pyramid, I would not have a problem leaving when I want.
Your timing is good; I am also leaving three weeks later and handed the duty of overseer. She said, which surprised me a little.
The Tyrant guarding the airsh.i.p.s of Devil Forest is common, but they never use Elite Tyrant for that.
Has the Grimm Monsters begin attacking the airship I asked slowly after a moment of thinking.
I did not receive the answer to my question for a while, and I thought she would not answer me when she spoke.
What I am going to tell you is confidential; I hope you can keep your lips sealed, She said with a low voice.
My lips are sealed, lady Mars, I said.
In the past four months, three of our airsh.i.p.s have been attacked; we have lost quite a few people in those in those attacks. She said.
See!
I couldn\'t help but suck a sharp breath hearing that.
Attacking the airsh.i.p.s is a pretty serious thing; it seemed like a condition deteriorating more rapidly than I had thought.
\'You answered that, right I asked, Off course, we humans never take things lying down; they destroyed our three airsh.i.p.s, we destroyed their five, I personally destroyed two. She replied, hearing that a smile couldn\'t help but appear on my face.
We talked for few minutes before she cut the telepathic link between us.
It looked like I would be leaving sooner than I had expected; I hope I would get to fight at least one Tyrant before I leave.
Three weeks may seem a huge amount of time, and it is.
I could kill hundreds of emperors in such time, but Tyrants are completely different.
Not only would I have to find a weak Tyrant, but the fight also needs to have in a secluded place where it could not attract any attention.
That was the last thought in my mind before I slept, and I had slept for one whole day before I woke up with a very hungry stomach that I just freshened up quickly, and I begin to cook myself a great hearty breakfast.
An hour later, a table food of assorted breakfast dishes in front of me which I had eaten with great p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.
Though these dishes are not at the level of what Lord Al had cooked, they are still great.
I wish Ashlyn with me to eat, but she stayed in the forest.
Which is also good; after we left, she would not be able to roam the open forest as such for a few months.
After I finished eating, I took out a wooden c.h.e.s.t that Lord Al had given me, and my heart couldn\'t help but beat up in excitement.
When I opened the c.h.e.s.t a few seconds later, I had nearly fainted seeing the things inside it.
The things inside the c.h.e.s.t are very precious, one of the most precious things I had ever got.
