Chapter 257: Journey To The Academy

The group continued running for another fifteen minutes, it was only after Grey was sure they were no longer being chased did he stop. Of course, Void was the one who gave him confirmation.

As soon as he stopped, the first thing he did was to throw Klaus off of his back. Klaus who wasn’t expecting Grey to toss him off his back landed butt first on the ground and yelped in pain.

“Damn you! Couldn’t you just drop me like a normal person would?” He glared at Grey.

If not for the fact that he couldn’t beat him, he wouldn’t mind teaching him a lesson.

“I could, but doing this is more fun.” Grey chuckled as he took a seat on the ground under a tree.

They were still in the forest, and since they aren’t being chased anymore, Grey suggested they rested here. He was a little skeptical about why the group from the Azure empire stopped chasing after them. Naturally, given how important the information they found out was, he didn’t think they would let them go.

When Void told him they were no longer being chased, and that the group from the Azure empire disappeared, just like the Overlord Plane experts, it left him deep in thought.

However, no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn’t figure out why they stopped chasing them.

‘We’re lucky they stopped chasing us though since we’re safe, that’s all that matters.’ He thought.

After all, it wasn’t like he wanted them to keep on chasing them.

Alice and Reynolds saw how Grey threw Klaus on the floor, and couldn’t help but laugh at his misfortune. He had been telling them about how slow they were, completely forgetting that he was being carried by Grey. They didn’t think he forgot though, he was just a shameless individual.

“So now what?” asked Alice as she took a seat close to Grey and Klaus who was still rubbing his butt with both hands.

“We head back to the Academy. Although I have no interest in this war, we should report it to the principal.” Grey said after a moment of silence.

“Okay.” Alice nodded.

With nothing left to say, she entered a meditative state since she had been using her lightning essence throughout the chase. Reynolds also followed suit, leaving Grey and Klaus awake.

“Hey, bud.” Klaus moved closer to Grey, moving in a very odd way. He still in a sitting position, so he dragged himself along the ground before getting close to Grey.

Grey shook his head when he saw Klaus doing this, “Huh?”

“Why don’t we take some wine and reminisce about the trial land.” suggested Klaus.

He didn’t need to recover his elemental essence since he didn’t use any. He wasn’t feeling sleepy as well, so why not have a good time with his friend.

“Sure, but we’re not drinking that wine.” Grey agreed to them drinking, but they were not to drink the special wine.

Klaus agreed since he wasn’t really too bothered about which wine they drank, as long as it was not terrible, he was fine with it.

Grey brought out one of the wines he took from Smith’s room, he also had silver cups in his storage ring.

The duo stayed up all through the night drinking and chatting, while Void was the one who was mostly on the lookout given the massive range his senses can cover. They spoke about their times in the trial land, Grey told him about the times when he was chased by a horde of Lightning Apes. He almost accidentally also spoke of the bunnies when he was speaking of the times he had to run away, but luckily, he stopped himself on time.

If Klaus hears about that, his life would be hell since Klaus would definitely mock him with it.

As soon as the sun rose, the group continued their journey once again. They left the forest and used the normal pathway. Klaus was against them walking and suggested they bought a horse once they got to the next city, but the others thought it would be fun if they walked to the Lunar Academy. This would provide them more time to talk about their experiences in the trial land.

They passed through multiple small towns before they got to the next city. Klaus refused to leave the city if they didn’t get horses. Grey and Reynolds tried convincing him, but he refused. It was only after Alice stepped in did he agree to it, but it was only after she said they would get a horse once they got to the next city after this one.

It took them three days to get to the next city, and it was surprisingly the same city Grey and Chris stopped in when he was being carried to Lunar Academy after his test. This brought a lot of memories back to him, he couldn’t help but laugh when he recalled how Chris was eating when they stopped at the restaurant.

He took the group to that same restaurant, telling them how he and Chris stopped here. The food was good which brightened Klaus’ day. Grey had refused to cook since they started the journey, even after being bugged by Klaus and Reynolds.

They stayed at an Inn, and on the next day, they followed Klaus’ wish and got a horse. According to their current pace, it would still take them about four days or so before they get to the Academy. If they were walking, it would take about a week at least before they got there.

Grey took his time to take in all the sceneries as they headed to the Academy, they passed through different terrains, mountains, swamps, valleys, canyons, and so on.

There was a time when they had to cross a river, Grey and the others wanted them to take a boat that was carrying people to the other side, but Klaus had other ideas.
