795: Going Back

Going Back

"Ha… Ha…"1

"I can't breathe."

"Help."

Other people were raising their hands while gasping for air. Even the soldiers had a hard time containing this powerful pressure.

"Are you going… to commit murder?" The soldier who interviewed them this whole time gritted his teeth and asked.

"Of course not." In the instant the man replied to his question, the pressure vanished.

Everyone could breathe normally again, but they were still panting on the ground.

"I am simply wondering why the army is letting this man continue with his useless ranting even though it's not his place to talk. Even my lady has been cooperating with you guys. If I want to take her away, do you think you'll be able to stop me? Law? There's no such a law in this place." The man harrumphed, looking down on the soldiers.

"I…" The soldier clenched his fists and knew that there was no way to win with this argument. He stated while waving his hand. "Escort that man and his group from here."

Hearing their supervisor's command, the soldiers hurriedly moved to drag the troublemakers away. Their hearts felt heavy since Maya was using her influence to pressure them, but there was nothing they could do.

Maya's expression had become cold as she gazed at the supervisor. "So, what do you want to ask?"

"I…" The supervisor was sweating, wondering if he needed to continue with this anymore. Even though they were from the military, this place was similar to international water. If they wanted to kill people, no one could be blamed.

Even so, he still had one job to do. He steeled his heart and asked, "Did you get any information from the witch?"

"Nothing. She was a General Class Monster, and this place was a barrack. The skeletons we had seen this whole time were former soldiers and what we found was most likely a storage room." Maya talked fast, and her explanation was concise as if telling them that she didn't plan to talk to the very details anymore.

The supervisor swallowed his pride and eventually smiled, "Is there any other treasure in this place?"

"Who knows? We collect what we've found. That's all. Obviously, you're not going to be so shameless to add a rule that forces me to hand over my loot, right?" Maya narrowed her eyes. Her tone was cold.

"How did you find the secret room?"

"Airflow."

"We've checked the lowest floor, but there's nothing like that."

"Humans? Hmph." Maya pointed at Ava, who was sitting on Theo's shoulder.

The latter waved her foot with a smile. "Kyu."

"…" Their attention finally went to Ava. They realized that there was a cute rabbit standing on Theo's shoulder, and she seemed to be intelligent enough to understand what they were saying.

It was clear she was a Rare Class Monster. It turned out Theo had the ability to tame a Supreme Rank Monster like Ava, no wonder he was fine.

As much as they wanted to admire Ava's cuteness, they couldn't do it because of one person.

"Then… we're done here." The supervisor finally let them go as he couldn't withstand the pressure coming from the Mythical Rank Expert's glare.

"Good. Let's go." Maya nodded and turned around, asking Theo and the others to follow her back to the hotel.

They then left the dungeon with all those weapons as no one dared to think about snatching them from Maya's group since they couldn't even do anything when the Mythical Rank Expert released his power.

When coming back, the man looked at the weapons and said, "Still… It's really true. There are so many weapons there."

"Hmm… Is there any group planning to return to the other side?" Maya asked.

"There are two groups. According to their appointment, they'll be checking out tomorrow. I believe they're going back, but Miss might need to confirm it with them."

"I need someone to call the recovery team to bring all these weapons back." Maya pointed at the weapons.

"You're not going to bring them back with you? Is it about your personal safety? We should be able to send a few Supreme Rank Experts to escort you."

"No. I still have another destination." Maya shook her head.

The man glanced at Theo and knew it was with him.

"A contract."

"I understand." The man nodded and stopped staring, knowing that it was inevitable. "Alright. I'll ask them about this."

"Sure. Thank you." She nodded with a smile. "Anyway, I'm going to have some rest for a day or two here before going to my next destination."

"Don't worry, Miss. No one can bully us." The man assured her with a smile.

"Good. I'll leave it to you."

While they were busy talking, Theo was arranging his status with the attribute points he received earlier.

Name: Theodore Griffith

Status: Hero

Level: 470

EXP: 4,657,599/ 7,061,887

Blessing: God of Mischief

Skill: Blink (B), Clone (B), Illusion Construct (B), Illusion Destruction (B), Illusion Manipulation (B), Magic Augmentation (B), Magic Bullet (B), Magic Power Expansion (B), Metamorphosis (B), Telekinesis (B)

Attributes: Strength 630, Endurance 426, Agility 423, Vitality 426, Magic Power 790

Free Attribute Points: 0

He felt happy with his status. Even though his level had yet to reach Supreme Rank, his status had surpassed it. He only needed to wait a bit for the power-up that came in the Supreme Rank, and his understanding would increase by leaps and bounds.

At that time, he would focus all his attention on strengthening all his skills and preparing for A Rank Skill.

'This progress is good. Well, I need to strengthen my Awareness first, and there's also the need for me to improve my illusion.' Theo's expression became serious, knowing what kind of things he needed to improve within the next few months.

'Still, the Starry Group might indeed be a good option to be my next destination. I've finished learning from Sir Leonardo too, so I guess I'll focus on improving my power for a few months before coming to this place?'

Theo assessed his situation and started formulating his plan, unaware that the Mind Elder was waiting for him in Italy.
