Chapter 512: Warned

It was then decided Emery would follow Fjolnir returning to his kingdom. He was inwardly excited by the prospect of visiting the renowned kingdom and finding out the legacy of his ancestor.

As he had seen the world map, Emery knew the kingdom that Fjolrin ruled over was located just far east of Briton. Hence, he could actually pass by the place on his trip heading back home.

The first thought that came to his mind was the fact he had to gain 400 plus spirit force before the next recall, which was in a little over a year from now.  The best way he could think of was no other than the Khaos space that was completely suffused with spirit energy.

That would be the best plan in Emery's opinion: following Fjolnir to see the legacy of his bloodline, and then returning to the Khaos space to continue his training.

Perfect.

While he was thinking about this, Emery noticed Klea was staring, no, glaring at him.

"You are thinking about that princess again, aren't you?" A glint passed through her eyes, sending faint chills down his back.

"Whaat?! No! I was not..." Emery quickly said, vehemently denying her accusation. Unfortunately, the sharp gaze Klea threw at him made him so nervous so much he stuttered his words. "I... I really wasn't!"

Emery took a long sigh. He really didn't think about what he was accused of, but the Egyptian Queen's words once again reminded him of that girl, Gwen. Recalling her image in his mind, he became unsure of his decision to return to Briton. She actually now became his reason not to return.

Klea unexpectedly nodded her head in satisfaction. It appeared her spirit reading was good enough to sense he was not lying, but she still decided, rather, determined to come along with him.

Her declaration brought Emery out of his thoughts and surprised him, he didn't realize Klea would come all the way back to Briton again. The confusion in his once more shown.

"Wow! You really don't want me to come with you, don't you?!"

"No. Of course not, Klea. I'd be happy if you could accompany me" said Emery, smiling wryly inwardly. 

"Yes! You must realize by now that you needed me, Emery" 

As for the three boys, Julian, Chumo and Thrax, they decided to stay in the temple. They needed every leverage they could have to reach a higher cultivation realm. They were, after all, not as monstrously talented as Klea.

After deciding their next plan, the Abbot seemingly had an important message for them.

"I need to tell you all something about the Nephilims."

The Abbot reminded them to be very careful of the Nephilim faction. From Emery's story about Lord Izta sacrificing his 2000 years being in service of the Nephilim, he now understood the reason why the Nephilim tended to leave them alone other than taking the Heavenly Fruit's harvest away.

But despite that, the Abbot told how the Nephilim helped to ignite the war that killed millions of lives a thousand years ago.

"The Nephilim were willing to break rules for their goal, hence again, please be really careful about them."

Emery could guess it was probably because they felt threatened by the five brothers. If there was no such war 1000 years ago, Earth might be a much different world, the Abbot wouldn't be hurt and the four brothers might still be alive.

The Abbot reminded them that, unless they could make sure they would graduate from Magus Academy with the potential to become a Magus, he hoped they didn't make any trouble with the faction.

Hearing that, Emery decided to tell the Abbot about the Headmaster's plan to petition Earth's right of caretaker to return from the Nephilim faction to the hands of the Earthlings, which in this case, Lord Izta.

Although the latest news was that the Headmaster was captured by the Elves, Emery still hoped there was a way it could still be granted. There was also a possibility the headmaster already returned to the academy when they were back.

Fjolnir and the Abbot seemed doubtful when they heard this piece of information from Emery, as if they weren't sure if the plan would be successful.

"Even if there was such a plan, the Nephilim would not leave Earth without giving a fight."

The Abbot looked at Emery and smiled, "And do you know why, Emery?"

Emery gave the question a little thought and found the answer when his gaze landed at the sacred tree behind them and recalled what it could do.

"It's Gaia, isn't it?" answered Emery.

The Abbot nodded and explained that Gaia was a rare resource of great value. In the eyes of the Nephilim, its value even exceeded the billions of lives on the planet.

Emery has heard about how the lower rank world would be a resource point for the Magus Alliance, but he didn't realize how significant that information was and how important Gaia was until now.

Hearing this, Thrax once again became emotional and said that now they were here, they should not be afraid of the Nephilim anymore.

In response to that, Fjolmir told the group he knew there were at least a dozen magus under the Nephilim. There might even be more, so even if all five of them managed to become Magus, they might still not win in direct confrontation.

Fjolnir words quickly sent the passionate Thrax into silence, but it was Julian who unexpectedly looked even more annoyed by the news.

The Abbot looked at the group and said, "I was not going to say this as I wasn't sure, but I believe Gaia is changing. I have the feeling time is running out for us."

The words spoken by the Abbot were similar to what the High Priestess said to him. Emery wondered if it had anything to do with the visions he received from Gaia. 

The Abbot was about to add something, but he seemed very reluctant to do so. In the end, he only said these words.

"Just focus on your training and achieve the best result during your time in the Academy." The Abbot said with a gentle smile on his face. He then looked at the group and added, "Most importantly. Don't die."

Afterward, the Abbot stood up and left the room, heading to his own secluded place leaving the group still questioning what was the Abbot was about to say earlier. 

Fjolnir, who was left with the group, could only raise his hands when he saw that everyone's attention was on him.

"Don't ask me. I can't ever understand him. Him being a monk proves my point."

Before leaving, Emery asked the group about the Heavenly Fruit they received. Klea and Chumo had no opinion on the matter, but the other two seemed to have the need to catch up on their spirit force after their recent breakthrough to rank 8.

Hence, after confirming it was possible to share the Heavenly Fruit from Fjolnir, they decided to just cut the fruit into five equal pieces and everyone received a portion. 

Klea, Julian, Thrax and Chumo decided to immediately swallow their share because nothing wrong with more improvement. Meanwhile, Emery decided to store his part in the spatial storage, keeping it for future apothecary projects he might do with it.

The result of consuming one-fifth of the Heavenly Fruit was immediate, as everyone received an average increase of about half a dozen spirit forces between each of them. Such a number for only one-fifth of the fruit could be considered amazing. 

Emery realized all the Heavenly Fruits taken by the Nephilim for the last hundred years could be extremely useful for the Earth's cultivators, such as the two Han sword masters and the others.

Earth might even have produced several magus-level figures already if the 10 Heavenly Fruits harvested every ten years weren't given to the Nephilim.

With sour feelings left in the mouth because of the realization, Emery and Klea finally said their goodbye to the other three. They all separated with more determination to achieve massive improvement on each other when they met later in the academy the next year.

Emery also took the time to create a stone formation in this place. He would definitely like to come and visit the temple again sometime in the future.

Now that everything was set, Emery and Klea quickly followed Fjolnir as they exited the temple.

"So, how do we go there? Should we get a horse?" Klea asked Fjolnir.

Fjolnir shook his head and said, "Why need a horse when there are better alternatives?"

The man proceeded to create another summon out of pure energy, but this time, it was an enormous bird.

He quickly climbed it and looked back at Emery and Klea who were staring at him in stupefaction.

"I hope none of you are afraid of heights!" He said with a massive grin on his face.
