"So I can communicate with Rey and Alice with this thing?" Klaus asked again, just to be sure.
He hadn't been in contact with any of his friends for a long ti now, and if this thing was just as Grey said it was, then he would be able to communicate with them whenever he wanted. They could even talk every hour!
"Pretty much," Grey nodded.
Oliver, who was already astounded by the tracking device Grey made, was even more shocked by this communication device.
This was sothing recent, so he still didn't have any ideas about it, just like most of the people on the continent. With such a device, wouldn't they be able to quickly locate Chris, and anyone missing if said missing person has one of the tracking devices on them.
Of course, this could also be used in a negative way to track down people and assassinate them.
"Oh, have you run into people from the Capital lately?" Grey suddenly recalled how the Emperor seed to want him and his friends.
"No. Why do you ask?" Klaus shook his head, diverting his attention from the communication device and focusing on Grey.
"Well, the Emperor is searching for us," Grey said.
"Us, as in?" asked Klaus.
", you, Rey, and Alice," Grey explained.
"What?"
Klaus, Delia, Blake, as well as Oliver exclaid, surprised.
"Why would he be searching for you four?" Oliver asked, a little worried.
Grey looked around, clearly, he didn't want to share this information with Blake and Delia here. Yes, he trusted them, but so people might not be able to control their greed when benefits were presented in front of them.
Oliver looked at the Grey before shaking his head wryly.
'This kid doesn't trust people so easily, huh?' He asked himself.
After a while, he decided it was best if Grey told only him and Klaus the reason for this.
Blake didn't even bat an eye, and quickly stood up from the table after getting a knowing look from his Teacher. He made sure to take Delia along.
This was sothing that had to do with Grey and Klaus, and since Grey didn't want others to know about it, then it must be serious. Well, given the fact that the Emperor was searching for them already showed how serious the situation was.
After the duo left the table, Klaus and Grey moved to the sa table Oliver was sitting on.
"The thing is, the Emperor found out about obtaining the Great Earth Essence Liquid, and he assud that I might've shared it with my friends. So now, he sees us as a threat," Grey went straight to the point.
"Hmm, this is a serious matter. But, how did you find out about all this?" Oliver asked calmly.
"After you left the Academy, I stayed in my Teacher's valley, researching that tracking device…" Grey went on to tell them of how he was being hunted down in the Academy, as well as the city.
He also went on to tell them about how even Reynolds and Alice were also hunted down by the Emperor's people. If not for him getting there on ti, and Alice's father reacting swiftly, then both Reynolds and Alice would've been captured by now.
Klaus was most likely safe because he not only had his father with him but because they were constantly on the move which would make it difficult to track them down.
"*Sigh* To think the empire has fallen to this level," Oliver shook his head.
"Actually, compared to the others, I'm in a far more difficult position. I'm wanted by all four empires," Grey said.
"What? How co I'm only wanted by the Qilin empire?" Klaus asked, sulkily.
"What do you an?" Grey couldn't help but ask.
Even Oliver looked at his son in confusion.
"I an, we're both handso, so we should be wanted by the sa number of empires. Okay, since you're slightly more handso than I am, I'm willing to accept being wanted by three, but that's the least I can take," Klaus explained.
"You're even crazier after not seeing you for so long," Grey was short of words.
Who in their right mind would want to be wanted by four empires? They were not so small organization or sothing, but the legit rulers of the continent. Yet Klaus felt sad because only one empire wanted him while four wanted Grey.
"I know, but I an co on, we were there together, right?" Klaus shrugged.
"You do know that they're trying to kill us, right?" Grey asked with a raised brow.
"Yeah, that's what makes it more hair-raising!" Klaus replied.
"Stop ssing around, this is a serious matter," Oliver glared at Klaus, who just sheepishly looked in the other direction.
Grey shook his head before bringing his attention back to Klaus' father.
"Principal, from what I understand so far, the Emperor certainly doesn't want us to grow to the point where he can not control us. So I believe he would soon ramp up the manpower in the search very soon, and also, there would be Overlord Plane experts coming after us," Grey deduced.
"You're right about that. I think it's ti to leave the Qilin empire, just for the anti," Oliver said.
He wasn't as powerful as Chris who could easily stand against the top powerhouses of the empire. It was rumored that when Chris recently broke through to the Peak of the Overlord Plane, he battled against an expert in the Sage Plane, and didn't lose.
Although he didn't win as well, it was noteworthy to say that he was the only one in the history of the continent that has been able to fight against a Sage Plane expert while still being in the Overlord Plane, and not losing.
Oliver believed that Chris might've been able to break through to the Sage Plane by now. He was already in the Peak of the Overlord Plane for a long ti now, it was not surprising if he really did break through.
He on the other hand was also at the Peak of the Overlord Plane, and he felt all he needed was a nudge, and he would be able to break through to the Sage Plane as well. But it was easier said than done.
