An eyebrow rose on Noah's face as the idea Cregar intended to pass across gained dominance in his mind. A grin appeared on his features.
"I understand," he muttered, allowing his mind to wonder a bit. He recalled the eting he was to have with the immortal of space.
"Good," Cregar replied, Noah almost sensed so sort of humor in her tone. "I understand you will be departing now. Your readiness to leave remains too evident. You want to put your ti to good use."
Noah nodded, remaining silent. His mind already considered various things he would set up for the upcoming events. He had sothing in mind. A simple skill he had not used in a very long while.
"It is goodbye then, o heir of the god of speed," Cregar announced and Noah felt a particular pressure act on his figure. The world trembled and for a second he thought he saw a woman standing before him.
The image barely lasted a second since he opened his eye to the skies of Cregar. He threatened to plunge to the ground, but a platform of wind appeared below his feet and he could stand high up in the sky.
He recognized that location as where he had been running past before Cregar intercepted his journey.
Noah furrowed his brows as he gazed at the world before him. It had been long since he saw it in the lushness as he did now.
He took in a deep breath and the world seed to co alive anew. A wonderful experience, he thought.
His interaction with Cregar had not lasted an hour so the task he had been sent to achieve was still in view. The day already felt long, however. A phenonon that remained rather rare.
As an expert that could enter a ditative zone for days on end, re hours usually failed to make him feel that way.
"Noah?" He heard Erolia speak from within him, and a smile blood on his face. Her figure quickly shot out of his chest and her humanoid figure appeared before him, eyes widened.
Noah felt the urge to chuckle, and he did. Her reaction to his now normal state made him glad.
"You're… bright," she revealed, poking his chest. Noah chuckled even more. He missed being able to express his emotions, now he valued that ability more than ever.
"Bright? That is a rather weird representation of my new state. Or old state turn new,," he placed his hand on his chin as though in thought.
"It's weird too… but that's how my mind can describe you… bright. Before you felt dull and gray… or colorless.."
"Maybe it's sothing that has to do with my nature as a magical beast," she revealed, speaking sense that even Noah agreed to.
"But yes, I have returned to normal. I thought you would have noticed since it's happened for a while now…" This subject made him wonder.
"I don't know. When Cregar pulled you in... I kinda could not see anything," she revealed. Her eyes danced up and down Noah's features, he seed like a new person.
"Hmm alright," he muttered, understanding the situation. He didn't expect less from a being that level. He had literally t the world. That event had to hold so terrible implications.
Noah nodded his head randomly.
"You can return to your soul space now. I don't want to-" He was cut short when Erolia frantically shook her head in disagreent.
Despite the rough action, her multicolored hair simply bounced gracefully while her head shook, never getting ruffled.
"Let's go together, it's been ages since I saw you!" she exclaid as her figure began to release a soft cerulean light mixed with tinges of gold and silver.
Noah could only give an understanding smile while she transford. The light beca blinding and in the blink of an eye a rather large cloud ford before him and he sensed the presence that Erolia exuded in that beastly form.
She shot out of the white cloud to circle Noah's figure whilst traveling at high speeds. Her master could sense the excitent swelling in her chest.
Before he knew it he sat on Erolia's feathery back while she flew towards their destination. It was a simple location in the forest. It would be highlighted by the runes given to him.
It acted as so sort of compass and now that he was close it shone with a greater golden light and the second he arrived above the place, even he could sense the presence of the others.
They were a group of middle-staged experts, so his arrival would have gone unnoticed were it not for the terrifying beast that suddenly bead above them to cast a huge shadow.
Erolia's mass had increased by about 20% after her breakthrough into the higher stage. Her natural aura as a magical beast made that area tremble.
Noah descended while Erolia decided to explore the area. Curtsy demanded that he at least held a conversation with them, especially now that he felt reborn.
Three females and two n. All in the peak of the middle stage. That level of power had beco the default level to actually make so impact on the events that occurred during the war.
"Master Noah," one of the ladies floated forward. They had brought a big badger as their ride, and it shook at Noah's arrival. Magical beasts had far better senses compared to humans.
"Good day. I'm sorry I arrived a bit later than I had anticipated," Noah apologized taking steps in politeness. They were from the Flaming heritage guild.
That organization had been rather tiny decades earlier, but fate had allowed its leaders to stumble upon resources that quickly increased the strength of their top mbers, and here they were helping the great guilds out.
The lady shook her head with a polite smile even if so nervousness could be fished out in her expression.
In fact, they all felt nervous. Noah was the most stunning man they had ever laid eyes on.
"We didn't have to wait much. You arrived far sooner than expected. I am Helen," she explained as their feet touched the ground.
Helen was a lady who looked past her mid-thirties. She had a head full of black hair, a pair of sparkling orange eyes, and had a flaming red robe which masked her petite features. She stood at the height of 5"4, leaving Noah almost a full foot taller than her.
The others ca forward to introduce themselves to that high level expert. Personally, they could sense nothing from him. No hostility, or power.
But that reality was what made them nervous to begin with.
Quickly they invited Noah to sit around a short table and red mats with wine served to him.
"I'm sure you have what they sent to get," Noah said after sipping so wine. Helen nodded and he sipped more.
