Chapter 483 - I'm Not That Careless
Three days soon went by while they were on the journey. Grey was mostly listening to Ray's words about the vale region, while also trying to improve his elemental grade for his earth element.
The heavy feeling he was getting from the current place he was sitting in is almost negligible now. He could easily move a couple of meters into the earth's space now, but he was waiting until he wouldn't be able to feel any sort of heavy feeling from that area first.
The deeper he looked into the earth's space, the darker the color. He was presently around three hundred meters deep into the space, and the color here was still light brown. From his estimation, he would need to move to at least the five hundred meters mark before he would be able to improve his earth element elemental grade to blue.
....
"Wow! This is good! Isn't this the meal made in Xan's Restaurant?" Ray asked after drinking what was left of the soup on his plate.
"That's the name of the place?" Grey asked with a confused look.
He didn't really put the name of the restaurant in his head, just casually walking in and eating. If he didn't enjoy the food, he would've completely forgotten about the restaurant.
"Yeah, you know how to make their special dish yet you don't know their name?" Ray was left stunned by Grey's reaction.
The only reason he didn't call Grey a liar was that he had been traveling with him for the past three days, and from the questions Grey asked, he could tell that he wasn't from here. Not just that, but it almost seemed like he wasn't from the Aurora continent.
After thinking about it a few times, he concluded Grey must have been from a small tribe or family that was hidden deep in the forest, and they cut off contact from the outside world. There are multiple tribes like that, so he wasn't too shocked by it.
"No, I liked the food so I asked them politely if they could teach me, who knew they were such nice people," Grey replied.
Void, who was gulping down his food, coughed when he heard this. He didn't think Grey was this good at lying, if he wasn't there when the kidnapping took place, he would've thought that the people from the restaurant were really that nice.
"Seriously?" A look of incredulity appeared on Ray's face as he asked.
After saying their goodbyes, they separated.
"Ah... finally, I can speak freely," Void said as soon as Ray was out of sight.
"I still find it surprising that you can speak and other Rank Five beasts can't," Grey said.
"Others can, you just haven't seen any high-leveled ones yet. Those oversized lizards can speak once they get to Rank Five as well," Void replied.
"Oversized... oh... you mean Dragons?" Grey asked.
The fact that Void calls Dragons oversized lizards amazes him. Those were Dragons! Legendary magical beasts and Void calls them oversized lizards. If people heard him, they would be left speechless.
"Alright, let's begin," Void said excitedly.
With their two alone, he had the freedom to do whatever he wanted.
"Remember to always keep the cores, that's currently our only source of income," Grey said.
"Don't worry, I'll keep the cores, I'm not that careless," Void said.
Thirty minutes later.
"Void, what the hell?! You destroyed the entire head," Grey exclaimed after seeing the headless beast on the ground.
"I didn't know its head would be so soft," Void tried to explain.
"You should've attacked its body, why would you even think of blasting its head?" Grey complained.
"I sent the attack towards its back, it was stupid and tried to block it with its head," Void refuted.
