Above the trees, hundreds of beams of light appeared out of thin air and surrounded the monsters. The beams of light illuminated the entire forest. Such a scene made the monster cover their eyes.
Fein, who was far away, notice it, but he just rely glanced at it and proceeded to fly into the sky. He had already developed a short-distance teleportation elental technique, but he hadn't made the long distance just yet. Long-distance proved to be a lot more complicated than he had thought, and he needed to level up his understanding of space further.
For now, a short distance is enough for him. What might be short to him would be considered long distance to others. Fein's short-distance teleportation range depends on the scope of his perception. Currently, he could cover a large city with his perception, at a minimum. At maximum, he could cover three or four cities. That ans he could teleport within the area his perception covered. So, what's short for him might not be the case for others.
As for Fein, what he considered long distance was if he could teleport from country to country or if he could appear in every place on the continent. After all, what's the use of teleportation if you can't use what you want?
Fein used his space elental technique to teleport from one city to another. This technique helped him reach his destination faster than ever before. That's why if one looked at the sky, they would see a giant bird that would appear and disappear.
As Fein got nearer and nearer to his house. He couldn't help but suddenly think of Kidd and their mories together. He couldn't process his emotion well since he was too occupied and overwheld by Michael's state. But now, he felt a heavy feeling in his heart. After all, years of friendship with Kidd and their bond that he thought was solid turned out to be like this.
It's the first ti he felt how to be betrayed by a long-ti friend. He had to say that it was too painful. Fein had a hint of reminisce in his eyes as he rembered when he fought with the demon side by side with Kidd. 'I didn't expect that I would be betrayed. The Laughing Phantom is getting on my nerves. First, it was the captain, now it was Kidd. No matter what, it seems I have to pay them a visit in the future.'
Fortunately, his will was far firr than before. Now, although he was affected by Kidd's betrayal. It didn't affect his rationality and actions. He could still make a decision in a reasonable manner and think thoroughly. Unlike before, when he was too devastated because of Gregory's death that he couldn't think of anything and just feel depressed.
...
In the Death Forest, one would see a rain of light. The screams of monsters resounded in the forest, one after another.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The light beams fell one after another at a speed that the monster can't dodge. It went through their body effortlessly and turned them into a sieve. At least eighty B-rank monsters died before the rain of light beams dispersed.
Kidd, who was still lying on the ground, felt relief that he managed to kill the surrounding threat. But also worried because the Hundred Beams consud thirty percent of his total degu energy. If four waves of B-ranked beasts with the sa number, go after him. He didn't know if he would last longer.
'I need to survive for at least three hours in the middle of this damned forest!' Kidd felt more and more lightheaded. Maybe after three hours, he had already died of blood loss.
The only hope he had is the reinforcent of the Laughing Phantoms. With the death of twenty mbers, the Laughing Phantom would imdiately send soone to investigate what happened. Because every mber of the Laughing Phantom had a life crystal attached to their body. Once they die, it would notify Niki as he holds the pair of the life crystal inserted into every mber's body. If one of the crystals in the Headquarters shattered, it ans that one of their mbers had died.
So, if twenty life crystals broke simultaneously, it will alert the Laughing Phantom and send soone as soon as possible. Though it would still take three hours, even at the fastest speed, since the base of the Laughing Phantom wasn't located to the South.
...
"Father, I'm going with Fein this ti."
"Brat, where do you plan to bring my precious daughter?"
Fein looked at Lucius, who actually had a smile on his face. He didn't even have any unpleasantness on his face. "We are going to the East this ti. I know my responsibility to her. So don't worry, I'll protect her with all I got."
"Well, I'm not worried if she was with you. And I know my daughter's strengths well. As long as you don't provoke those old monsters, the two of you will be fine." Lucius said with a faint smile on his face.
He was really satisfied with his son-in-law. Not only the youngest S rank but also an accomplished scientist, and a tar of the legendary beast! But what really made Lucius like Fein for his daughter was the fact that he could see that Fein was a responsible man that has his own principles.
Lucius felt reassured by the future of his daughter at the hands of Fein. And he could see that Sofia was really happy for Fein. Lucius doesn't want to interfere with his daughter's decision much. As long as her daughter was happy, he was fine with it.
Fein couldn't help but shudder inexplicably. 'Is soone thinking sothing unpleasant about ?'
"Father, I'll bring Aoi with this ti, too," Sofia spoke suddenly.
"Ohh... Well, I don't know what happened. But my friend told that your partner evolved. It's also the reason why she showed those random symptoms. So there's actually nothing wrong with your beast companion, but it's just the side effect of the process of evolution." Lucius responded.
'Aoi had finished her evolution? I wonder what abilities she got.' Fein couldn't help but wonder. 'Well, she might have obtained two mythical abilities like Voli. Now, it's ti to go to the East!
