Chapter 111 - Spatial Storage
'Hey! Why did you use the flame to refine your body? I'm almost certain only a Magical beast will do that', Void asked Grey who was walking to get his last pair of clothes from his bag.
"Oh, that? Well... It's kinda weird, but I like training my body, so on seeing this chance I decided to further improve the strength of my body", Grey hesitated before replying.
He couldn't just tell Void about the pearl and his ability to fuse elements or gain comprehension of other elements. Even though there was a connection between him and Void, he would not trust him recklessly.
What if Void left him after they left this place? Wouldn't that mean his secret would be exposed?
'I can't tell him about it, for now, I didn't even dare to tell Klaus or Teacher yet. There's no way I'll divulge my secret to him so easily', Grey thought seriously.
Only his parents knew about this, well, so he thought for now. And according to what the Senior told him, he should keep it a secret, until he was strong enough to protect himself from the greedy eyes of others.
There were a lot of people that wouldn't hesitate to kill him because of it. This, he is well aware of.
'Well, you're one weird human', Void looked at him weirdly.
Grey shrugged before putting on his clothes, there was no need for him to explain further. After putting on his clothes, he suddenly remembered something.
"Where did you store the lotus?", he asked while staring at Void.
'I have a spatial storage in my body where I keep things', replied Void.Plunge into the depths of Nøv€lß¡n, where information dwells.
"Spatial storage? What's that?", Grey couldn't help but ask.
He looked at Void in surprise, it hadn't even been up to three hours since he 'hatched', yet he knew so much.
'Don't tell me you don't know that as well?', asked the stunned Void.
'How the hell does he not know even about spatial storage when he has one?!', thought the flabbergasted Void.
Although he didn't know how it was made, he was able to clearly feel the space element in the ring Grey had.
Grey stared at him blankly.
From Void's tone and expression, he was sure he wasn't lying to him.
'That ring on your bag', Void pointed his paw at Grey's bag.
"What ring?", asked the stunned Grey.
Because it had been quite a while he collected the ring, and after he studied it and didn't find anything about it, he had forgotten he even had it in the first place.
Void looked at Grey speechless.
'Do I really have to show him everything?', he asked internally.
If a stranger overhears their conversations, they would think Grey was the newborn while he was the one who had been in the world for long.
Seeing the look on Void's face, Grey knew how foolish his question was. The bag is right there with him, all he had to do was search for it.
It didn't take long for him to spot the ring in his bag. The bag wasn't as occupied as it used to be due to Void eating more than half of what was inside.
'It's the ring! I knew it was special. But, what can fit into this small ring?', he asked himself.
He recognized the ring the moment he laid his eyes on it, it was the ring he got from one of those boxes at the palace he entered with his friends.
'That's it', Void said after Grey took out the ring.
"I acquired it by chance, to think it was a spatial storage item. But given its size, can it store a large object?", Grey asked doubtfully.
'I don't really know, it all depends on the space created in it. I also think the quality of the material can affect the size of its space', Void answered truthfully.
Grey nodded before once again studying it. Even after some time passed, he still couldn't figure out how to use it.
"Do you know how to use it?", he decided to ask Void for help.
But Void shook his head, he was just as clueless on how they can access it as he was. Although he had a spatial storage in him, it was something he was born with, he didn't learn how to use it, he just knew how to.
Both man and cat started studying it carefully, and after making multiple deductions, Grey was finally able to access the ring.
And he was stunned by the size of its space. But after the initial shock, a surge of excitement enveloped him.
"Haha, this is great", he laughed gleefully.
