Chapter 324 Out of the Dungeon
"Well. Ti is almost up anyway," I mumbled as I saw that 60 minute clock running down to its last minutes. I then turned to Aarick, looked at his shocked face with a smirk, before speaking.
"Oi Idiot! 2 minutes."
It shouldn't be hard for him to understand what I ant, and yeah, understanding what I was aiming at, he imdiately vanished from there for a brief mont before reappearing again.
"All right. I am done here. So do we need to wait for 2 minutes or can we go imdiately?" he asked in a low voice while I looked at the still surprised Diaspora. She was observing her hands, or perhaps her whole body, for what had happened to her.
"Like it?" I asked with a smile forming on my face.
She nodded as she slowly looked at . Her eyes were looking at , trying to understand what exactly am I? Though that's a question that is a bit difficult to answer for too.
"Is there anything else you want to do here?" I asked, and she shook her head.
"Seems like we are done with our work here," I spoke, looking at those dragonlings who were still confused whether to attack us or not. Though it's a little too late, so…
"Sayonara b*tches," I said in a loud voice before pressing the buttons on the system.
The surrounding space started convulsing with at the center. Except for , Diaspora, and Aarick, everything began evaporating in thin air. And before we knew it, we were already out of the dungeon, back to the central abandoned place of the Queen.
Though an awkward silence covered around us as Diaspora and Aarick looked at . It seed like they wanted to speak sothing, but both of them were thinking hard to ask the questions or not.
"So? What next?" Aarick was the one to break the silence, and I gave it a bit of a thought before answering to him," for now, let's erase the miasma of this planet. Do you think you can help with that?"
He looked at with a rather crude look before muttering," you really are an oddball, aren't you? I honestly am having trouble understanding your thoughts at this point."
"Can you do it or not?" I asked again as I ignored his useless banter, to which he nodded.
"I can. Even though it will take so ti and it will give a minor boost at best, I guess I can do it."
"Why?" Diaspora looked at as if I were a saint. Her eyes looked at , like one would look at their God.
"How can soone like you even… exist… Just who are you?" Diaspora continued as she tried to find aning behind my actions.
'It would be anticlimactic to say that I am doing it for the quest.' I gave a dry chuckle before changing the subject.
"Don't care about it. It's nothing. Aarick, I will help you clear the Miasma as well. Once we do that, can you help find the core of the planet?" I spoke, and he pondered about it before nodding.
"That would be a nice way to recreate the planet. But you would require the essence of life for it. Do you happen to have any with you?"
So he knows about the Life essence too, huh?
"Well. We can figure that out after clearing the miasma," I spoke, and he sighed,'' well, I was going to say that it is not that easy… but given your absurdity I would keep quiet. If there is nothing else, I will leave to clear the Miasma. Oi Diaspora, co with ," Aarick spoke as he took Diaspora with him.
Since he was going in that direction, I chose just the opposite one from him. Though it would lead back to where Aisha and the others are, I wonder how far their training has co to.
'I should also ask Aisha about Life essence, higher Gods, that dragon and a few other things. It can't be a coincidence that she brought us here to this random planet with broken life,' I decided as I slowly began walking outside this lair.
It wasn't hard to clear the Miasma as I began using my skills and changing the energy into a lower form. While I did try to convert it into divine energy, it kinda failed over a dozen tis, so I gave up on it for the ti being.
And little by little, I reached back to the place where Aisha was training the three of the girls on how to control their energy.
'They seem to be ditating.' I saw them sitting on the floor with their eyes closed as they tried to force so form of energy into their bodies.
"Oh! You are back. How was the sightseeing?" Aisha looked at coming from afar, and I waved my hand at her before warping close to her.
"It was nice. I am currently clearing the miasma of this planet. Seems fun," I told her and she was surprised as she answered," You really are serious about conquering this planet, huh? Well. If you do happen to succeed, then that would be good for us. Though it is only montary, since it will all vanish when reality will go back to where it was.
"I guess. My main purpose is to be stronger. It's just part of the process," I answered her honestly. If I can gain sothing good from this, then I will surely get it. It's not just a quest, even if the world goes back to its original reality. I still believe I can get sothing from this planet using the system.
"Anyway, how are they faring?" I asked as I looked at the girls, to which Aisha spoke with a smile," they are talented. With proper tutoring, they would bloom out real good. It will be fun teaching them."
Seems like Aisha was enjoying teaching them.
"On that note, I had a few questions. Aisha, is this planet really a coincidence?" I asked as I looked at her, to which she asked back," be specific."
"I saw a dragon's lair and found a dragon's abode. And a couple more things," I told her in bits of things that happened. I didn't tell her about the dungeon, though. She nodded as she answered,
"There is a bit of a story behind that, but it is of no use to you. This place used to be one of my companions' hos. Though, with my help, she moved away from here before it got destroyed, so it is fine. In fact, except the 4 races of Plienthora, everyone moved away from this planet."
Aisha seed rather sad about this. It seed like there was a bitter mory attached to it.
"Also, I found that the Higher Gods… they are still alive in this reality," I spoke, but there was no response from Aisha. She just stood there for a couple of seconds before a deep sigh escaped from her mouth.
She turned to and said,"Well… that's a relief."
Hmmm? Did she have any friendship with the Higher Gods?
"I didn't think I would get the chance to obliterate them painfully on my own. This is really… such a relief," she spoke with a calm yet deadly smile.
Seems like it was exactly the opposite.
'I guess things are going to be more interesting, huh?' I smiled as I looked forward to it.
