Three days soon went by while they were on the journey. Grey was mostly listening to Ray's words about the vale region, while also trying to improve his elental grade for his earth elent.
The heavy feeling he was getting from the current place he was sitting in is almost negligible now. He could easily move a couple of ters into the earth's space now, but he was waiting until he wouldn't be able to feel any sort of heavy feeling from that area first.
The deeper he looked into the earth's space, the darker the color. He was presently around three hundred ters deep into the space, and the color here was still light brown. From his estimation, he would need to move to at least the five hundred ters mark before he would be able to improve his earth elent elental grade to blue.
….
"Wow! This is good! Isn't this the al made in Xan's Restaurant?" Ray asked after drinking what was left of the soup on his plate.
"That's the na of the place?" Grey asked with a confused look.
He didn't really put the na of the restaurant in his head, just casually walking in and eating. If he didn't enjoy the food, he would've completely forgotten about the restaurant.
"Yeah, you know how to make their special dish yet you don't know their na?" Ray was left stunned by Grey's reaction.
The only reason he didn't call Grey a liar was that he had been traveling with him for the past three days, and from the questions Grey asked, he could tell that he wasn't from here. Not just that, but it almost seed like he wasn't from the Aurora continent.
After thinking about it a few tis, he concluded Grey must have been from a small tribe or family that was hidden deep in the forest, and they cut off contact from the outside world. There are multiple tribes like that, so he wasn't too shocked by it.
"No, I liked the food so I asked them politely if they could teach , who knew they were such nice people," Grey replied.
Void, who was gulping down his food, coughed when he heard this. He didn't think Grey was this good at lying, if he wasn't there when the kidnapping took place, he would've thought that the people from the restaurant were really that nice.
"Seriously?" A look of incredulity appeared on Ray's face as he asked.
He had heard of how the people from the restaurant protected their special recipe, for them to give it to a complete stranger was beyond belief.
"Yeah, the chef was a really nice guy," Grey nodded.
Ray looked at him, not sure if he should believe Grey's words or not, but he couldn't deny it, this was exactly the al made in the restaurant, and he personally witnessed Grey cooking it.
"Anyway, since you're heading to the Southern Continent, you'll have to head to the Polaris region. Teleportation isn't allowed when crossing between two continents, you'll have to walk there. But I'm not too sure, after all, I've never been there before," Ray decided to let the matter of the soup rest.
Since he could enjoy it without going to the restaurant, then it was a win for him.
Ray brought out his map, which was more detailed than the one Grey was using.
"There are twelve regions between the Vale region and the Polaris region. Since you're going in a straight line, then you will naturally pass through so of the high-grade regions," He explained while showing Grey the route to the Polaris region.
Looking at the map, Grey tried to take a ntal note of the route. He planned to also get a better map as well once he gets to a better city.
After they were done eating, they started their journey once again.
Four more days soon went by and it was ti for Grey and Ray to go their separate ways. During the ti they were traveling, Ray was the one who mostly dealt with the beasts they were encountering, Grey was mostly focused on trying to improve his earth elent elental grade.
He has recently moved to the three hundred and fifty ters mark during the course of these four days, and from what he was feeling from it, he would be able to move to the four hundred ters mark soon.
His process was faster than he actually imagined, given how difficult it was when he was still in the Azure continent, he thought it would take him at least three to five months before he gets to the five hundred ters mark, but with his current progress, he could reach it within a month or two.
"This is goodbye," Ray said.
"Yeah, hopefully, we et again. If I ever return to this region, I will definitely co to the Abyss mountain," Grey promised with a smile.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for you," Ray nodded.
He wasn't too certain that he would see Grey again, but he was a little hopeful. Maybe the next ti they see each other Grey would be more powerful than he is.
After saying their goodbyes, they separated.
"Ah… finally, I can speak freely," Void said as soon as Ray was out of sight.
"I still find it surprising that you can speak and other Rank Five beasts can't," Grey said.
"Others can, you just haven't seen any high-leveled ones yet. Those oversized lizards can speak once they get to Rank Five as well," Void replied.
"Oversized… oh… you an Dragons?" Grey asked.
The fact that Void calls Dragons oversized lizards amazes him. Those were Dragons! Legendary magical beasts and Void calls them oversized lizards. If people heard him, they would be left speechless.
"Alright, let's begin," Void said excitedly.
With their two alone, he had the freedom to do whatever he wanted.
"Rember to always keep the cores, that's currently our only source of inco," Grey said.
"Don't worry, I'll keep the cores, I'm not that careless," Void said.
Thirty minutes later.
"Void, what the hell?! You destroyed the entire head," Grey exclaid after seeing the headless beast on the ground.
"I didn't know its head would be so soft," Void tried to explain.
"You should've attacked its body, why would you even think of blasting its head?" Grey complained.
"I sent the attack towards its back, it was stupid and tried to block it with its head," Void refuted.
