Chapter 582 Be Her Another Reason
He laughed so hard that tears appeared in his eyes, then he looked at him appreciatively and nodded, "I have to admit it, you are really something else, man. I also feel you aren\'t someone who can remain restricted in this small piece of land for too long."
Saying this, his expression turned serious as he said, "But let me tell you something, even your supreme mages can\'t leave this place whenever they want, and have to scheme for thousands of years just to have a chance of stepping outside. So, if you want to leave this place just by relying on your strength, then you have to be someone who can thrash several supreme mages without breaking a sweat."
"With your current rate of progress, it\'ll take you at least a few hundred years to reach that step and that is after considering your talent is top notch. If it\'s not, you\'ll need even more time. Tell me, do you think she can wait until then?" He asked, pointing at little Rou.
Max went silent, but a moment later, he stared at him hard and asked, "Tell me, are you able to take both of them with you?"
"No. I honestly can\'t." Durden admitted and then began to say, "But I can just take her…"
Before he could say anything more, Max interrupted him, "You\'ll break them apart? That\'s no solution. Now, I know her condition is special, and might be beneficial to you, or even your sect. But as I said before, if you take her away by force, she will hate you forever."
Durden frowned, "What are you getting at? Just say it clearly."
"Alright!" Max nodded and seriously asked, "Why don\'t you tell me whatever you know about her condition? Maybe I can find her a solution?" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Max needed to find the Divine energy to awaken the system. Since he now knew the continent they were living in was a \'forsaken land\'s, he wasn\'t sure if he could find any Divine energy here.
Thus, he had to enter Durden\'s homeland, and look for it there. From how Durden seemed to look down upon even the supreme mages, his homeland was surely one or multiple level above this \'forsaken land\', and perhaps it was one of the places that system told him where the Divine energy was.
As for the reason he asked for the details about little Rou\'s condition, it was because he had an inkling that his bloodline energy could be beneficial for her. But before trying anything, he had to know everything he could about her condition.
Durden narrowed his eyes, "You think… you can help her after knowing about her condition?"
"Perhaps, I really can." Max casually said.
Durden just stared at him, not showing any expression on his face. When Max started feeling jittery under his gaze, he finally spoke, "Alright. I\'ll tell you about it."
Max immediately focused and listened.
"In the ancestral records that I read, there was no mention of what causes it but there was indeed a solution. If you want to cure her, you\'ll need a higher level of energy, and someone who can control it at will. Then, that person will inject that energy into her body, purify her mana pathways and then help her form a core from that energy."
After saying this, Durden\'s lips curved up as he continued, "I was going to have an Elder of mine at your supreme mage level do it for me. So, you can try asking a supreme mage to do it too, but let me earn you, the person who is going to purify her mana pathways and form her mana core should have same elemental affinity with her, and his understanding of the the law should\'ve reached Mastry level at the very least. If not, that will only harm her."
Max frowned, and then sighed inwardly, \'Sure enough, it isn\'t easy.\'
He then asked, "She will be cured after her mana core is formed and mana pathways are purified?"
Durden\'s smile faltered when he heard this before sighing, "This is I\'m not completely sure about because in the record, even though that person had stopped aging backwards, some complications had arose but they weren\'t recorded, so I don\'t know about them."
After saying this, he waved his hand and the isolation barriers around the grandfather-granddaughter duo broke into pieces. The mixture of mana and Max\'s bloodline energy lingered for a few moments before dissipating.
A trace of astonishment flashed in Durden\'s eyes which he quickly concealed, but shock stormed in his heart.
\'Such pure and resilient bloodline energy… Is it an imperial grade bloodline, no, this seems to be of even higher rank. …and he can already use it so casually?\'
He thought back to the moment when Max isolated little Rou and her grandfather. He did so in an instant, and without any difficulty. He had already sensed something strange in his mana but didn\'t bother to investigate it because he was more focused on the reason why he had done so.
But after witnessing it, he realized when he thought he was overestimating Max\'s potential, in fact he had grossly underestimated it.
He gave Max another serious look and muttered under his breath, "Maybe you\'ll truly be able to leave this land on your own."
"Did you say something?" Max was thinking if he should try using his bloodline energy on little Rou, so he didn\'t hear what Durden said.
"Nothing." Durden shook his head.
…
Half an hour later, Max watched Durden leave the inn with Adam and Jasmine.
After they disappeared from his sight, he exhaled deeply and went to his room.
In their room, the old man was looking at little Rou, who was standing in front of him with her head down, with an angry look on his face, "Why did you refuse? Do you not want me to die in peace?"
Little Rou raised her tear stained face and hurriedly said, "Please don\'t say that, grandpa. You know…sob!... I-I also want to get better so I could take care of you better, but I can\'t live without you. If you are not with me, then I… don\'t want to live."
Seeing this, the old man sighed, and didn\'t say anything else. Then, he gently hugged her, letting her cry on his chest.
She needs another reason to live. He thought. He felt extremely happy and gratified seeing how much his granddaughter loved him, but he couldn\'t be her only reason for. She needs another, so when he is no longer around, she won\'t become an empty husk and could happily live her life.
Suddenly, Max\'s image appeared in his mind. Recalling how much she appreciated Max because he showed them kindness by leaving that ten gold coins, and how a beautiful smile would appear on her face when they sometimes brought Max in their discussions in the past few months, he thought,
Maybe he can give her or maybe become that another reason…
…
Swoosh!
A three meters large bat flew across the sky, and rapidly neared the Green Leaf\'s Capital city.
When it was just half a mile away, it stopped and hovered in the sky. After a moment, a droplet of blood shot out of it towards the capital.
Then the bat circled the city, and a few more droplets of blood shot towards the city.
Then, suddenly, a handsome young man in moon white robes, Oliver, appeared on top of the bat, and grinned, "Hehe, you ran quite far, but not far enough."
But in the next moment, he frowned, "But because she is in this kingdom\'s royal palace, it\'ll be a little more troublesome to capture her."
After thinking for a moment, a savage look appeared on his face as he patted his storage bag, "If anyone tries to obstruct me, I\'ll make sure you suffer for eternity. Now, let\'s get down, beautiful!"
The bat made an acknowledging sound before flying down to one of the city gates.
…
In a luxurious villa in the Royal Palace, Lilly suddenly had a bad feeling.
Don\'t tell me that guy has tracked me down…? She immediately guessed the reason. Immediately, her brows furrowed, a hint of cold murderous intent flashed in the depth of her eyes.
…
After resting for a night, Max left the inn without disturbing Emily, Ray and Shasha, and headed towards the market.
He needed mana stones, a lot of medium grade mana stones to quickly break through to the four-star realm. Right now, he only knew of one way by which he could earn them–by selling his magic spells.
During the night, he suddenly started having an uneasy feeling, as though something bad was going to happen.
After thinking for a while, he realized it might be related to the mission regarding his beloved, Lilly, the system gave him. The realization made him want to break through as soon as possible.
Therefore, he immediately tried inscribing one of his magic spells on the scroll and was pleased with the fact that he could still do it. So, after inscribing a few scrolls, he headed towards the nearby auction house in the market.
