Child of Destiny Chapter 769 Gathering In The Sky Deceiving Valley

...

Sowhere within the Sky Deceiving Valley, there was a small group of payers traveling within its region.

"Are we heading in the right direction? We are walking for quite so ti already," complained Ember with a deep frown.

"Tsk! This is where our clue is pointing us, so you don't have to worry too much. If you want to complain about sothing, then curse the fog on this map instead. Traveling in this kind of environnt is really troubleso," said Lawless sneeringly.

Sigh~!

In the anti, Hayden released a helpless sigh as he sohow agreed with Ember. They really were spending quite a lot of ti traversing this region. In fact, they already wasted quite a lot of ti finding the right way towards their real destination.

And the one to bla was Lawless himself who seed to get addicted to hunting the monsters within the area.

Well, they couldn't really bla him since the monsters within the vicinity really gave them quite bountiful rewards. Moreover, the area did not lack Boss Monsters with different ranks. They even encountered a couple of King Class Bosses along the way.

In the anti, Ravier, who was one of the most talkative mbers of their group aside from Lawless, was currently silent. He was completely focused on constantly using his mana sense.

Due to the unique environnt of the Sky Deceiving Valley, Ravier's unique sensing skill seed to upgrade to another level. The humidity in the air was helping him to completely sense his surroundings. The range was also quite large which was why their hunt beca much easier.

"The area is already clear. Let's get moving," said Ravier after checking their surroundings.

"Let's wait for Faker and Morgan to co back first before moving ahead," said Lawless as he sat under a nearby tree.

Hearing that, the others also nodded their heads and also looked for their respective spots to sit on.

Hayden swept his gaze at the group as he rembered his first ti joining them. That ti, he was only planning to work with them as a rcenary hired by Lawless. Who would have thought that he was going to join them and beco a mber of their small party?

At first, he was not used to it since he preferred working alone. But after hunting and doing a couple of quests with them for quite so ti, he started to learn the joy of having so comrade in arms.

"Feeling emotional? That is not like you."

Then he suddenly heard a voice from his side which made him regain his focus. Turning his head to the side, he saw Faker who had just co back from scouting the area ahead.

Hayden smiled bitterly and replied. "I almost forgot this feeling since I use to be a lone wolf wandering within the virtual world aimlessly."

"Well, at least, you now know how it feels," said Faker as he walked ahead.

Seeing him return, the other mbers of the group turned to him as Lawless asked. "How is it? Are we there yet?"

"I am still not sure about it since the fog within this place is really troubleso, but I think we are very close at the entrance that we are looking for," replied Faker almost imdiately.

He then took a brief pause before continuing. "But I found sothing really interesting this ti."

Lawless was familiar with Faker since they grew up together. And when the latter said that he found sothing 'interesting', it could only be between soone asking for trouble and soone who they could ss with. Either way, both cases could only lead to a single thing – a battle.

"Hoh~! There is sothing that piques your interest? Now I want to hear about it," said Lawless while grinning from ear to ear.

Seeing that expression on his face, Ember and Ravier could only sigh helplessly. They also knew these two pretty well since they were playing a lot of gas together. And if these two were acting like this, then it could only an that they were going to create so trouble.

"Are we procrastinating again?" muttered Ember helplessly.

"What can we do? Those two are in command in our group," said Ravier who was sitting right beside her.

Faker's sharp hearing could hear their complaints but he decided to ignore them and continued. "I found so trances of player's movents while investigating ahead, so I tried to into it."

He paused for a mont when he reached this point before continuing with a smirking tone. "And guess what? I saw a couple of dogs from the Corrupted Cults lurking around the area."

Everyone's eyes seed to perk up a little when they heard the words 'Corrupted Cult'. Now, they were completely interested in this topic. After all, they had an old beef with those guys.

"Now it really got interested. Let's hear it," said Lawless as the grin that he was wearing turned higher. Based on the current expression that he had, it was pretty obvious that he was itching to ss with the people of the Corrupted Cult as soon as possible.

Faker completely understood what Lawless was thinking, so he quickly answered. "I am not entirely sure of what their business here is, but I am pretty confident that it is an important operation."

He took a brief pause and turned to Lawless before continuing. "And I saw a couple of old faces among them."

Then the expression on Ember and Ravier's faces imdiately turned dark as they seed to have a rough idea who he was talking about. But it imdiately turned into a look of worry as they cast their gaze at Lawless.

But to their surprise, their captain seed to be acting calm and he slightly nodded his head. Then he asked. "Who among them in particular?"

"The twin and their 'babysitting'," answered Faker instantly.

"Heh!"

Lawless couldn't help but let out a smirk when he heard that and said. "Interesting! Very interesting!"

Lawless repeated those words before turning to the others. "It looks like we need to delay our quest a little and greet our 'old friends'."

"Shall we go?" he asked with a calm tone but also carrying a clear hint of coldness.

Ember and Ravier closed their eyes for a mont and released yet another sigh before standing up from their seat.

"Alright."

"I guess we don't have a choice."

They said at the sa ti.

In the anti, Hayden who was not an original part of their group chose to remain quiet and listened on the side in silence. He might not understand what they were talking about completely but he at least had a rough idea of what it was.

He was also quite familiar with their group even before playing this ga, so he at least knew their history even for a bit.

He also stood up and turned to Lawless before answering. "Then take the lead, Captain."

Lawless slightly nodded his head before turning in a certain direction. In there, he saw Morgan who had just co back from scouting the area.

Morgan might not present earlier to hear everything. But he at least had a rough idea of what was going on after hearing Lawless' next words.

"We are going to give our old friends a visit, so make sure to get your guns ready."

"Hah! You don't have to tell that," replied Morgan in an instant while also wearing a smirking smile. "I can't help but feel excited to finally et them after a long ti."

Lawless slightly nodded his head before turning his head back to Faker. "Let's go."

Faker then suddenly hopped backward before disappearing like a ghost. Morgan jumped up and climbed on the tree before jumping from one branch to another.

Lawless started moving ahead as he led the others towards the coordinates that Faker had sent him. Ember and Ravier followed after him quietly as Hayden walked side by side with their captain.

"I guess you still haven't completely gotten over it unlike what you have said to ," said Hayden in a joking tone, attempting to lighten up the mood a little.

Lawless understood what his intention was and quickly replied. "You don't have to worry. As I said earlier, we are only going to 'greet' them a little. How can we ignore them when they are in the area?"

"Sounds a little reasonable but still not convincing for ," said Hayden before quickly adding. "Just make sure to do it moderately since we are still not ready to have a war with them."

He took a brief mont of pause and turned to Lawless, checking the latter's equipnt. "You may have gotten your hands on a decent set of equipnt and also regain your previous form alongside Faker, but our overall strength is still weaker compared to such a huge organization."

"I know that the legendary duo of the God Slayer and Death God is not afraid of anything but you still have to consider the big picture," he added to finally voice out his concerns.

Lawless gave him a sidelong glance before smirking. "I at least know that much."

Then he turned his head back in front before saying with a cold tone. "But I still can't let such a rare opportunity slip away from our hands."

He paused for a mont before continuing. "I, at least, need to warn those 'guys' that we really are back this ti."
