Chapter 392 - Sacrifice!
"Principal, what did he do?" Grey asked, shocked.
"Hehe, he absorbed the town's treasure," Blake was the one who replied with a chuckle.
"The town's treasure?" Grey asked, surprised.
"Yes, you see..." Oliver started to speak of the history of the town to Grey.
Hundreds of years ago, this town wasn't called Moon Town, it had a different name, but suddenly, a strange situation started happening in the town. Usually, in all places, the elements of the residents are always mixed, with common elements like water, wind, fire, and earth being abundant amongst the Elementalists.
But in the case of Moon Town, the water element takes up a staggering eighty percent of the people here.
According to the people, they were blessed by the Moon God. Well, after experts in the Overlord Plane noticed the strange occurrence in this small town, some started investigating it and found out that there's an ice vein under the town.. But that was not all, there was a small rock that seemed to be radiating icy energy.
Naturally, the rock attracted the greed of some of the Water Elementalist experts, but surprisingly, not only were they unable to obtain it, but they died instead.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.
This reinforced the beliefs of the townspeople, saying it was a blessing from the Moon God.
A Sage Plane expert finally decided to step in, and after careful investigation, he found out that the rock was not from their world.
With such findings, one would think that the town would've grown bigger, but surprisingly, any Water Elementalist that was born from this town can not break through to the Overlord Plane.
Grey didn't even need to speak to Klaus before his mood lightened up a bit. He even brought out the communication device to inform Alice and Reynolds about Klaus' unfortunate situation.
The trio laughed, with Alice and Reynolds wishing they were there to see Klaus.
Grey soon got to where the crowd was gathered. The place was quite wide, he felt it was most likely the town's square.
"Look, I didn't know it was the town's sacred treasure. I'm sorry for mistakenly absorbing it," Klaus tried explaining to the crowd before him.
"Chief, don't believe him! When I got there, he was speaking of how he should've seen this place sooner." A young man said while pointing at Klaus.
"That's because I didn't know about it being your town's treasure you blockhead," Klaus looked at the young man as if he was looking at a moron.
"Young man, the essence you absorbed from the moon rock will take years to recover." An old man whose hair had turned completely white spoke up.
He was the one who the young man addressed as chief previously.
"What can I do to help you people out?" Klaus asked.
He had already absorbed it, it wasn't like there was anything else he could do to stop it.
"It's nice you're such a considerate young man. Since you want to help recover it, then you don't mind being sacrificed to the rock, right?" The old man asked with a cold look.
"Sacrifice? Me? The rock? You must be crazy!" Klaus immediately cursed out when he heard what the old man said.
He had been trying to reason with them civilly, but since they were saying such stupid demands, then there was no use. Although he couldn't beat all of them present, he was sure he could escape. Although he wasn't a hundred percent sure about his escape, he was one thousand percent sure his father would help him out!
