Nathan was about to leave the throne room and head back into the surface.
But then, he suddenly heard a noise coming from behind the throne Arthur was sitting on before.
With a weird look on his face, Nathan murmured, "Don't tell there's another moving statue like Arthur again."
Nathan hurriedly moved and hid behind a pillar of stone.
Since he doesn't know what is actually making that noise, Nathan thought that it was better to be wary if it was ever a hostile creature or sothing that can endanger him.
Better safe than sorry.
Peeking from behind the pillar, Nathan waited for the one making the noise to show itself.
Little by little, the sound gradually grew closer and Nathan was able to identify that the sound was actually footsteps.
Soon, a figure of a man standing upright with a height of around 1.8 ters tall appeared.
He has a dark skin tone and a pretty muscular body.
Wearing clothes that are obviously made out of so animal skin, he has the appearance of a hunter from the old tis.
On his skin, the man has a lot of tattoos that almost cover most of his original skin.
But the most eye-catching tattoo that the man has is a tattoo on his forehead that looks like a crown made out of leaves.
When Nathan saw the figure appear, he was a little surprised.
To be exact, what he was surprised at was the tattoo of a crown made out of leaves on the man's forehead!
"I rember seeing that tattoo from one of the docunts at the control room before… It was a symbol of a Naecosian!"
(AN: Let's call Naeco People Naecosian from now on.)
Nathan's eyes started shining the mont he recognized it.
Because that just ans, the man in front of him is a Naecosian and would probably know where the other Naecos are!
But after seeing this Naecosian, Nathan did not imdiately co out.
Instead, he used appraisal on the man.
[Na: Jecco Morong
Profession: Hunter
Physique: 18 (Tier 1) | Spirit: 20 (Tier 2)
Soul Talent: Wild Instinct (Tier 2)
Attribute: Wind
Skills: Hunting (A), Trap Master (B), Bloodthirst (B), Naeco Language (A)...
Status: Alert
Details: One of the most talented younger generation Naecosian in the Tribe of Naeco. Grew up with his father's strict teaching and his mother's warm care, becoming a righteous young man. He dreams of one day defeating all the [Threats] and coming back to the surface. But for so unknown reason, he left the tribe without anyone knowing…]
…
Looking at the information he got, Nathan found it quite interesting.
"So this is just soone from the younger generation, and he already has such a high physique and spirit."
With a curious expression, Nathan muttered, "If a younger generation is already like this, I wonder just how strong are the older people of Naeco…"
While thinking of such things, Nathan did not stop observing Jecco.
After a while, Jecco turned around and walked back in the direction that he ca from and soon disappeared again from Nathan's sight.
Seeing that Jecco is gone, Nathan walks out behind the stone pillar.
He stared in the direction where Jecco left and thought about following him.
But in the end, he shook his head.
"No, I can't go there rashly. Although I know of Naecosians, but after all, I don't know them personally. I still have to be wary, I guess I should just continue on focusing on increasing my strength first."
Saying that, Nathan continued staring for a few more seconds before turning around and leaving through the huge black tallic door from before.
After Nathan left the throne room, a figure covered in a dark cloak slowly walked out behind the throne and stared in the direction Nathan headed to.
It was Jecco!
"My Talent really didn't disappoint . Soone was really hiding in here." He muttered.
Earlier, when Jecco was looking around the room, his soul talent, [Wild Instinct] started warning him that there was soone in the room beside him.
But after looking around, he did not find anyone.
Doubtful, he walked back in the direction where he ca from and when he was in the dark part, he used an Artifact given by his father, [Cloak of Darkness] that allows him to remain unnoticed by anyone even by Transcendent experts as long as he stay in the dark.
Of course, there are more to the artifact than just that. But that is a topic for next ti.
Anyway, Jecco wore the Cloak of Darkness and hid himself behind the throne.
It was then, Nathan ca out of hiding and stared in his direction for a few seconds before turning back and leaving.
Jecco felt it, that person was stronger than him and could kill him anyti.
Thinking of this, Jecco started to regret his decision of leaving the camp without telling anyone.
Thankfully, he brought the Cloak of Darkness with him and the man also seems to not want to do anything to him.
Breathing out a sigh of relief, Jecco thought about what he should do now.
Soon, a resolute look appeared on his eyes and he said, "I'll go back to the camp and report this to my father. Now that soone has appeared in this place, danger might start appearing for the camp."
Saying that, Jecco turned around without hesitation and headed into a pathway that is hidden inside the room.
As he was walking back, Jecco beca worried and muttered,
"I hope father won't be angry too much."
…
After Nathan exited the room through the black tal door, he appeared back into the room where he slaughtered monsters earlier.
Not bothering to sightsee, Nathan directly walked up the stairs.
After a while, he arrived in another room and Nathan continued walking up again.
He repeated that for a few tis and finally, after a couple of hours, Nathan got into the room where the Guardian Treants were guarding before.
Imdiately, a huge smile was plastered on Nathan's face.
"I'm finally back!"
