Capítulo 1238: The Vale Mist
Thousands of inhabitants were swallowed by the insidious mist of the whispering beasts. Over a dozen hunters had died taking on the mission to vanquish the vile abominable beast.
Every last Virelian is weary of the vale mist that seems to possess a life of its own.
Naturally, that was more than enough proof to show just how daunting the mission Klaus had picked was.
However, to Klaus, this mission had now beco a training regin, one that would allow him to test the limits of his illusion abilities.
Of course, he knew he was still on the clock, considering the people were this close to cancelling the mission to save the money they had invested in posting it in the first place.
If the 25 days are up and they can’t pay the amount the mission hall is demanding, the mission will be canceled by them, which in that case will an they won’t get anything in return. So it was either that the mission was completed, or they canceled before the 25 days were up.
The 25-day period is due in four and a half hours.
However, Klaus wants to face this mission in a training mode. The dead hunters and those who cancelled will flip if they know of his plan.
Obviously, he wasn’t about to let his employers know of his plan.
His only concern now is that they don’t cancel the mission while he’s inside the vale. That will be a bumr.
Naturally, he already has a way to fix that too…
Klaus tapped into his illusion abilities and made a copy of himself, “This is a clone I made. As long as I breathe, he will remain alive.
However, once I fall, the clone will cease to exist.” The five Virelians who escorted him to the mission site already knew what he ant.
“Give just four hours. If I am not back by then, you can go ahead and cancel the mission. Though I doubt it will take more than an hour.”
After saying that, Klaus jumped down from the jet they had co in, landing calmly on soft ground.
Not too far from him, the brown mist stretched far into the distances.
Klaus, of course, is looking forward to what the whispering beast has in store for him.
He started walking toward the mist under the watchful gaze of the five Virelians inside the jet.
Also, far from them, three Early Immortals stood calm on a sword, gazing at the back of the hunter they, for so reason, are feeling uneasy about.
Naturally, they already saw what the mist had done to most of the hunters that ca before Klaus. They even got to witness one of them drown in the mist’s influence and be carried away by it.
That was a clear sign the mission wasn’t one ant for mortals. However, for so reason, watching Klaus walk into the mist is making them feel uneasy.
Of course, they are wishing with every fibre of their being that he never returns. His returning and working to complete the mission will be bad for them.
Until the mission is canceled, they cannot sign the contract that will give them full control of the planet, whose inhabitants are among the top 30 most beautiful humans in the human universe.
In their eyes, that is a large pool of people they can send out to act as maids, escorts, and all kinds of human commodities that will fetch them a good profit.
Klaus may just be standing in the way of making a good profit, and as such, they want him dead. But for now, they can only wish the whispering beast would do the killing for them.
Klaus, of course, had no idea that these people were wishing his doom.
However, even if he knew, just the fact that he started hearing a being calling his na from deep within the mist is more than enough reason to take his mind off them and focus on the mission.
‘Looks like the hunters that survived this mission weren’t lying when they said they heard their na being called from within the mist.’
Klaus smiled and separated the voice calling him, and locked it away in one of his many minds.
‘Once again, having more than one mind is the best.’
With the voice locked away, Klaus was able to see the mist for what it truly is. Naturally, for soone who had lived many lives, it wasn’t too hard to notice the strangeness of the mist.
‘As I said, this is indeed an illusion. However, it seems the owner of the mist had infused it with their domain, allowing it to take a sowhat tangible form.’
Klaus smiled even more.
‘This ans if I were to send a tangible version of myself into the mist, it will read as a real human being, thereby devouring . However, since I am not a real person, he wouldn’t gain anything, so it would be a waste of his energy. It will also be the best mont to enter with my real body.’
Klaus stopped just when he was three ters from the mist. That will be the distance from which the whispering beast will be able to sense him fully.
‘But what is the fun in sending just one when I can send thousands?’
And with that, Klaus snapped his finger, and thousands of him appeared and imdiately ran into the mist.
Imdiately they did, he sensed the mist stir almost as if it had awakened. This brought a pale smile to his face. He already had his suspicions, but now that he had confird it, it was his ti to play with the whispering beast.
Klaus took one step, and he disappeared into the mist.
Atop the jet, the illusion copy Klaus left behind as a sign that he is still alive sat down and started humming a tune as if none of this concerned him.
As for the five Virelians, they were taken aback by how casually Klaus walked into the mist. However, with the still-alive clone he left behind, they can only wait to see the outco.
As for the three immortals, they were also taken aback by how Klaus stepped into the mist. However, they have no way of knowing what the outco will be.
Klaus stepped into the mist where thousands of his clones were already running amok, like it was their playground.
Of course, as if things aren’t already chaotic, since he had walked into an illusion, Klaus got a rather evil idea.
‘Why make them tangible when this is an illusion?’
With that, he started flooding the entire vale mist with thousands of clones of himself. Eventually, the one in charge of the illusion is going to run out of energy, and they will be forced to reveal themself…
…that is, if Klaus did not find them before then.
