"..."
Only utter silence could be heard the mont Greg finished talking, making the atmosphere kind of awkward between the two.
However, even after this, he just stayed silent and waited for Kuragari to start talking. He totally understood him, because all those information he told him in one go, could shock anyone to the core in an instant and Kuragari was not an exception.
As seconds ticked by one after another, suddenly Kuragari looked at Greg and asked, "This... Evolution step you ntioned. How does it work?"
"Russ said that only just a few people can reach that stage, but as to how he didn't tell . However, he told that those who reach that step will go under a strange process where the Guardian and the owner will rge together. From then on, you will be able to start the real cultivation."
"Hmm... Take to that Russ guy. I want to talk with him."
Hearing this Greg scratched his neck slightly and with a wry smile he said, "I fear I can't."
"What do you an?", asked Kuragari with a frown.
"It's not like I don't want to, but I fear if I do, you will die."
*Slash!*
The mont Greg said those words, a huge slash mark appeared next to his feet, indicating that he was almost killed by Kuragari just a second ago.
"You think I'm weak?", asked Kuragari a bit angrily as he looked at Greg with a dead-serious expression.
Turning his head slowly toward the cut on the ground, Greg started to sweat a bit and said, "N... No. Not at all."
"Then get moving and show where this Russ guy is.", said Kuragari and started to walk forward.
However just as he stepped forward, suddenly Greg's figure appeared before him with wide arms and said, "Master, please! Listen to . I can't show you where he is. Because... Because..."
"Because?", asked Kuragari with a raised eyebrow.
Seeing Kuragari's almost erupting anger, Greg steadied himself and said, "Because he is in a place where you will really die."
*TREMBLE!!*
Like a huge earthquake, the ground around Kuragari started to crack in an instant, while a pitch-black katana appeared in his hand.
Feeling that it didn't help at all, Greg shook his hands around and said hurriedly, "There is a creature above the God rank which will kill anyone who tried to approach its territory above the 4th rank! I didn't an that you are weak, it's just simply suicided to go there!"
Kuragari looked at Greg's face, but after seeing his honest expression he sighed and said, "What is that creature?"
Seeing as Kuragari cald down Greg sighed with relief and said, "The creature is called the Alpha. It is 100% above the God rank because I saw it with my two eyes. Also, those who try to go close to its territory with a rank stronger than the 4th rank will be killed without rcy or that was what Russ said to ."
Listening to this, Kuragari stayed quiet and a while later he said, "Only a day ago I thought I knew everything about the world, but now it seems I was wrong. Totally wrong."
As he said that suddenly Kuragari laughed up and continued, "Haha! Amazing! That's what I wanted!"
Just as Greg wanted to ask his Master sothing, suddenly Kuragari stopped laughing and said, "Brat. You are right. If there will be truly a war in the future, staying this weak is a total no."
After thinking for a while, Kuragari looked up at the sky and continued, "The mont I saw that devil, I realized just how weak I am. , who thought I could beat anyone with only at the Ascender rank just because I had two Soul Stones... How ridiculous."
As he said this he leaned forward and after taking out a small book from his own shadow he said, "Here. Take this. Everything that you need to know about weapons and combat is in here. Also, I wrote so words about the elent of darkness, so maybe it can be your help soday."
Taking away the book from Kuragari, Greg looked at the old looking book in his hand and a small while later he opened it.
However, the mont he did, his eyes widened in an instant.
Just on the first two pages, almost a hundred of different human drawings with attacking and defending postures could be seen, with various types of weapons in hand.
"This... Why?", asked Greg with a stunned expression as he looked at Kuragari.
"Just because.", said Kuragari with a shrug and continued, "I have already learned each of them, so they are useless to . To tell the truth, I wanted to teach them to you personally, but it seems I won't have the chance."
Looking at his Master Greg understood the reason why he said that, so with a slight bow he said, "Thank you very much."
"Not a problem. This is the least I can give you to help.", said Kuragari and a while later he continued, "Now then... It seems I will need to go and find a way to reach the God rank and when I reach it I will co and find you to tell the process to this Evolution Step. Until then, try to beco as strong as you can."
"And what about my friends? They won't relax until they find ."
Kuragari looked at Greg and after thinking for a while he said, "Don't worry, I will tell them personally what happened here."
"Tell them also not to talk about it that I'm here.", said Greg hurriedly.
"Why?", asked Kuragari with a frown.
Knowing that he forgot to tell him that there were spies among the humans, Greg told Kuragari everything about this matter.
After more than 10 minutes, Greg stopped talking and waited for his Master to react.
"Hmm... Interesting... Higher Beings, spies, The Six. Things are getting extrely intriguing.", said Kuragari after a while, and after looking at Greg he nodded and said, "Okay, I will tell them to stay silent about this matter as much as they can."
"Thank you.", said Greg with a sigh.
"Now then. It is ti for to go.", said Kuragari, and with a wave of his hand, the shadow below his feet free in size.
"I hope the next ti we et, you will be a much stronger brat."
"I will!", said Greg with a serious expression, and with a deep bow he said, " Thank you very much for everything."
Kuragari seeing Greg liked that just smiled and said, "No problem."
And without saying anything more, Kuragari's figure instantly vanished into the shadow, leaving Greg alone in the dense and scary-looking forest.
"..."
Straightening his back, Greg looked at the book in his hand he wanted to open it, but suddenly the threads in the air around him started to move like crazy, making him raise his guard in an instant.
"Now what?", thought Greg with squinted eyes, but the mont he saw as several scary-looking zombies approached him from all directions, he relaxed instantly.
Putting the book away into his shadow, he looked at the slowly walking monsters around him, and suddenly he started to smile.
"First Flow, Air Solidification."
***
Sowhere in the grand colorful void, an insanely huge and massive castle was gently floating without a single sound, while black lights similar to those of a lightning, broke out from it from ti to ti.
Deep inside that building, sowhere in it's biggest room, several creatures with different looks, size, and color were sitting around an enormous circular shaped table.
A three ters high man with two Giants on his side, a beautiful woman with a seductive look, an angry-looking demon that had six arms on each side, a devil which skin had a deeper black color than the deepest abyss itself, and hundreds of more creatures that looks exactly like those in the dinsional zones on earth.
However, even among these scary-looking beings, there was one life form that gave out a much scarier presence.
Its body was clad in silver armor, while on its back a huge blade with a width of a human arm could be seen. Unfortunately, its head was covered with a faceless mask, so it was totally unknown how it really looked like.
"We got the news that the Mask has been found, Your Highness! And also it is almost 90% that 'she' is on that sa planet, Your Highness!"
The mysterious being turned it's head toward the kneeling servant on its side and after a while, it started to talk with a toneless sound, "That is enough."
As it said that, it turned its head toward a creature that looked like a humanoid beast clad in an ancient suit and said, "Netherclaw."
"YES!"
*THUMP!*
With a loud shout, the beast stood up and hit its chest hardly.
"Go and prepare. You will go to that planet."
"Yes Your Highness!", shouted the beast loudly, and with a creepy smile it asked, "Can I choose personally my warriors?"
The being hearing the question nodded slightly and said, "Sure."
"Thank you, Your Highness!! Be us forever on the summit!", said the beast happily and without further hesitation, it walked out of the room with steady steps."
The being turned it's head toward the remaining creatures and said calmly, "You are free to go."
"BE US FOREVER ON THE SUMMIT!!!"
