Chapter 535 - Sylvia's Intention
Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.
After leaving the city.
In the woods.
"Can I ask you a question?" Grey stopped, looking at Sylvia.
"Yeah sure," Sylvia nodded.
"What are your true intentions?" Grey asked.
He already decided to ask her after they left the city, so he didn't delay any longer.
"About?" Sylvia raised a brow, staring at Grey.
"Why are you so adamant about me getting stronger? It's odd if you think about it. You have no connections with me, nor did I help you or anything, so why would you go through the stress of trying to make me stronger?" Grey asked, looking at her straight in the eyes.
"Also, if you were to be in my position, would you trust you? Someone you knew nothing about just picking you up, deciding to train you?" He added.
"Guess there's no use keeping you in the dark any longer," Sylvia said before walking towards the tree beside them, sitting below it.
He did not expect her answer to be something like this.
"Hmm, well, I can't be too sure of that yet. For now, I have a lot of things I need to settle, putting your challenge as one of them is not something I can say I want to do. There's also the problem of the mark that necromancer placed on my back," Grey voiced out his thoughts.
Although fighting against what was regarded as the second strongest Faction in the continent sounded nice, he wouldn't want to make an enemy of them because he wanted to assist Sylvia. Not just that, but he wasn't confident he could even be of any help, at least with his present strength, that is.
"I know this isn't something you can just agree to, but let me tell you this. That secret realm was what turned this Faction into the second strongest Faction in the continent, and if they were to continue using it, it would only be a matter of time before they turned into the strongest Faction. Although, there's still the possibility of them using the entire resources there, so we can't be too sure," Sylvia said.
"Then as for your reward, you can head into the secret realm to train for two years," She added.
"I can't decide if I'll be participating for now, two years is still a long time for me. I'll decide when the time comes," Grey said.
He couldn't carelessly make such a decision, after all, he knew nothing of the Middle Continent. He had only been in the Eastern Continent and was currently headed towards the Southern Continent to search for Ellis. If things work out, he might even leave immediately he finds him so that he could bring his friends here.
"Alright, I never expected to agree immediately. We'll go our separate ways once you're about to head into the Southern Continent. I still have a lot to do," Sylvia nodded to his words, not feeling surprised by his decision.
"Alright, since we've come to a conclusion with that issue, I want to ask, are you from the Northern Continent?" Sylvia asked after a moment of silence.
"Northern Continent? I've never been there before," Grey shook his head.
"Alright," Sylvia nodded.
'Looks like he's not from that family.'
