Chapter 407: Netherbeast, and Provocation

On their way there, Arthur explained the two threats coming his way and how they did not have the power to win against them.

Wisa and Jane were also rank-four mages now, but even if all of them acted together, they still had no means of overcoming the menace that would come. So their best course of action was to flee the planet -- they would have to leave either way if they wanted to pursue the magical path to its fullest.

"So this beast in the cave gave you another incredible eye, and it said you must get all the eyes if you want a chance against the other universe?" Wisa said.

"Pretty much it, yeah. The eye in my main body can help me track the others and get them while increasing our power. This other universe is idle now, but clues indicate that they might attack us in the future, and in our current state, we don't have the power to contend against them."

It was always about an interest, land, resources, or just wanting to showcase their superior status. Arthur knew the other universe would attack eventually, but he did not know when and how powerful they were.

"I need to get power!"

The three flew as fast as they could toward the Elven forest, which was far, but not a big deal for their incredible speed.

Arthur hoped that the Knowledge Seeker was telling the truth when he told him the menace would take some time to arrive. He counted on that time to make what he needed before leaving the planet.

In no time, the scenery surrounding them had bigger trees than before, and everything was greener and healthier as if men did not touch the area with their filthy hands.

That was because they did not, as the area belonged to the Elven race, who lived in many small tribes inside the forest, doing their best to keep the peace, not meddling with the business of other races.

"So, how do we get inside this area?" Jane asked as she played with her purple hair, giving Arthur a teasing look.

"We should try the same path I used to get out of the place," Arthur said, moving closer to Jane and squeezing her tits.

"We can have a good time after finishing this task," he said, not having the strength to resist the temptation.

"I want to fuck your main body, as it looks more handsome, and it feels more like you."

Arthur could understand their point of view, so he did not get frustrated about it, and had an even stronger fire to get his main body back, as well as Sybille, and get rid of the problems that were keeping his sleep away.

So with steady steps, they moved toward the area where the portal led Arthur after he left the temple.

It was not hard to find it, and the portal was still there, with no elves around acting like guards. Which was a good thing, so Arthur and his wives passed through, leading to the insides of a construction.

That was the temple where Arthur killed everyone. Differently from before, the temple barely had any sounds, and the atmosphere was like a graveyard.

"Let's get out of here and find the cave," Arthur said to his wives, who were analyzing the surrounding area, trying to see if any danger was lurking in the shadows.

After hearing what he said, they nodded and moved out of the temple, hastening their steps to find the cave as quickly as possible.

Arthur knew the place well, and with his power beyond what it was previously, no beast dared to attack him, and there were no elves around either, making it a stroll in the park.

"There, that is the cave," Arthur said, pointing to a cave entrance.

"I don't feel anything extraordinary about the place," Wisa said.

That was understandable, considering the slender beast was way more powerful than Arthur could imagine. Others would have found it by that point if it were that easy to sense its presence.

"Let's go inside," he said, as he went first, and his wives followed closely behind.

The place looked the same as Arthur remembered, with many things scattered around the cave.

Some of these things were treasures, others just useless items the slender creature stored for some reason.

Arthur was not there for those things, as he had already received the most valuable items from the beast. He was there to speak with it, and the beast did not take long to appear after they went inside the cave.

"You? What are you doing here, brat? I believe you have more important things to do," a hoarse voice came from the depths of the cave, and soon after, a horrifying beast slowly walked toward Arthur and his wives.

It looked the same as Arthur remembered.

"I am here for something vital. First of all, do you know the Knowledge Seeker?" Arthur asked.

He guessed that the two creatures knew each other, as it was common among beings of higher realms, and sure thing, the slender creature became flustered after hearing the name.

"Did you speak with it? That bastard vanished long ago, and he was some ancient knowledge I would like to get."

"I did, yes, and he sent me here. You see, these two people are coming here, one from my vision..."

Arthur explained everything, telling what he saw in that vision, not missing a detail, as that could help the slender beast.

"Are you sure about this? If this is the case, I will have to leave this place."

"Who is this person coming here? Stronger than you?"

It was hard for Arthur to believe that the human going there was more powerful than the slender beast, but it seemed like it until he got the explanation.

"No, of course not. That man is only a rank seven mage, useless trash. But if I kill him, more powerful people behind him will get the warning, and they will find me, which is troublesome. So fleeing is the best option. I will leave the planet like you, except I will do it tonight."

"..."

A rank seven mage was trash for the creature, so Arthur could not even comprehend its power level.

After warning the slender creature about it, he asked for guidance on leaving the world and what planet he should go to.

"Now that you are a rank four mage, you can jump directly into the main planet where the Alliance is. Sure, it is more dangerous there, and rank four mages are not that impressive, as they have mages all up to the ninth rank, but it has the best resources for you to get stronger,"

"As for leaving, well, I had a vision about you before we even met a while ago, and I saw you met someone from the Monlog Giant family. They live on that planet too, so you can free that person and go together there. Just tell him that the Netherbeast is your friend, and if he tries something, all of his lineages will die."

"So you are the Netherbest then? Aren't you scared they will speak about you, or I will get in trouble because I know you?"

"Correct, you should not tell about me with anyone, but the Monlog Giant family have a pact from long ago, and if any of them try to speak about my whereabouts, they die. Cool, right? Anyway, I will be taking my leave now."

The Netherbeast left the cave, taking all the treasures with him. Arthur and his wives had completed one of the things they had to do, and now, it was time to get his main body back!

They returned to the temple and used the same portal once again. Then, they flew toward the Von Stein family as fast as they could, not stopping momentarily.

Arthur was inside the room with Sybille, who was still alive but had yet to wake up but was alone there, unable to send messages to anyone.

But he was relieved! The magical formation around the room could not cut his connection with his avatar, so he knew it had reached rank four and was coming to rescue him.

"Thinking about the day you will leave this place?" A voice came from the staircase, and an ancient vampire appeared.

"It is you, mummy Alastair."

Arthur joked about Alastair's aged appearance, and it was evident it was not something he liked.

"I have been gathering information about you and found out you recently appeared from nowhere in this continent, coming from the sea,"

"So I got more information about you from the troops I sent to the central continent, who are taking over some of the cities,"

"I just came here to warn you that your homeland will belong to me like this continent. It does not matter what you try. I will always succeed!"
