"Well then, you should know that I know about your divinity now, right?" The cat stood up and vanished into thin air. In the sa instant, I felt a weight drop onto my left shoulder, making dart my eyes to my left to look at the terrifying existence that was just standing there without a care in the world.
"What about it?" I shuddered
"I want to ally with you" It finally spoke, making my mouth go agape while my heart simultaneously began to pump much faster.
"What?" I blurted out
"An alliance" It repeated.
After hearing it again, I finally went into comprehension, starting to think about everything from a third-person view.
'I have divine energy so there is no doubt that I will one day beco a powerhouse. He wants to make sure that he has a backer in the future and therefore is one step ahead of the other beast races' I quickly concluded
"And what do I get out of this alliance?" I asked while narrowing my eyes.
"Hmm... I guess I'll teach you how to use the darkness elent when you unlock it. I'll also teach you a few techniques and spells you can use with the lightning elent. I saw your display of control over the elent and I have to say, it is outstanding. Your control could even challenge the control of those prodigies from the god race" The panther nodded.
"Hmm? How about I add another thing to the table." I finally spoke after thinking about his offer for almost 3 minutes. In reality, it only felt like three minutes because of the whole thought acceleration that cos from mind-influx, therefore making the whole process just a little more than 18 seconds.
"If you happen to have a conflict with one of the best races that I am aligned with, I can choose to be neutral or even aggressive against you and your beast race. I can only use my aggressive card once on a single race, not any others, but I still have the right to remain neutral."
After hearing what I had said, I could finally see the expression of the panther distort.
"You are asking quite a lot" The panther sighed
"I am? Then how about you ask your leaders what to do about this situation now. Will they try to force , possibly angering not only but also a few of my astral plane backers, or would they back off completely?" I smiled wryly.
The panther had thought that it was poaching but in reality, within a split second I was able to reverse the situation letting beco the aggressor while the panther had to take the back foot
"How did you know-... I shouldn't question you since after all, you are a divine being. I'll get to the elders as fast as possible. Do you happen to have a communication crystal on you?" The panther looked at with a little bit of malice, but at the sa ti, his expression was one of defeat.
"Yep~" After sharing our contact information, I finally took off as fast as possible, making sure that no other beast saw on the way before making sure I was wearing my assassin's cloak that naturally hide my presence magically, spiritually, and physically. Whenever I would run through the forest, it would feel like running through the shadows while sotis even becoming one with them and my surroundings.
'I have to say, this must be one of the most useful things I have ever used in this life' A huge grin stretched across my face as I skipped from one branch to the other.
It only took about half an hour to get back to the inn at the pace I was going which was mainly due to still looking through the ring and seeing if there was anything cool that I could use right now without having a huge colorful display of lights if I were to breakthrough in sothing.
"Oh yeah! The staff!" I couldn't help but explain and look into my soul space.
Their it lay bare alongside the rest of the items, yet right before I was about to check what they did, I heard a familiar yet chilling voice enter my ear, laced with traces of killing intent end even bloodlust.
"What are you doing?" The voice asked while a figure flickered from behind and appeared right in front of .
"How the hell do you keep finding ?" I couldn't help but ask in exasperation
"Why the hell do you keep leaving your room at night to do so kind of suicide mission?" She retorted while crossing her arms.
After seeing that I did not say anything in return, she smiled wryly and looked at again. Before I even knew it, we disappeared from our place and appeared again in an area almost 3km away within an instant.
I looked around nonchalantly and said nothing, but the next thing amazed even more than the fact that we had moved so far in such a small amount of ti.
'She's supposed to be in the Liquidus ranks, right?' I asked myself inwardly as I watched shadows slowly seep out of the ground and create two thrones and a table in the middle
"What is this?" I asked with a raised brow.
"Sit down" She gestured towards one of the chairs and I complied. After seeing Rose's power, I knew that she could easily flatten if I decided to piss her off, even if I had chosen to use the Armor I had gotten back in the treasury.
Sitting down, I crossed my legs and looked at Yuri, an invisible yet dominating aura automatically seeping out of my body and spreading around and the throne I was sitting on.
'So this is the power of the sin of pride' Rose stayed calm, her smile growing slightly warr.
"Why did you bring us here?" Even though I intended for it to sound like a question which was what it was, it sounded a lot more like a command due to the pressure coming out of my body.
"First off, I just want to say that I understand that you would want to hide a few things from , but you trust ... I promise" In a flash, the distance between both chairs was nonexistent and she had her hand gently on my knee.
"What do you a-" I was about to refute, but she simply shook her head and spoke once again, however, unlike before, this ti her words hit their mark.
"You're Pandora Raven, right?" She asked
