Chapter 402: I'll Take That As A Compliment
Boom!
“Stop moving, I just want to punch you in the face!” Klaus said as he chased after Grey in the shop.
There were few people in the shop, and all of them wore the same weird expression. They all saw how Grey helped Klaus out a few moments ago, then why was he chasing after the person who helped him?
What was worse was that he was even telling him to stay still so he could punch him in the face.
“Stop causing a ruckus,” Oliver said.
Klaus had managed to get close to Grey and was just about to pounce on him when he heard his father’s voice.
Grey naturally stopped since Oliver had spoken, but unsurprisingly, Klaus didn’t stop, instead, he had a grin on his face.
‘Thanks, dad!’ He said inside as he dived towards Grey, prepared to land a blow on his head.
If Alice and Reynolds were here, they would shake their heads in pity. Klaus seems to always forget that Grey’s physical strength, speed, and anything else that has to do with physique was miles apart from others.
Bang! Bam!
Klaus slammed into the ground of the tea shop, face first after being knocked down by Grey’s punch to the back of his head.
“The Principal said you should stop,” He said.
He didn’t want to attack him previously because he didn’t have a good excuse, but with such a good one in front of him, of course, he was going to use it.
“Ouch! You… you…” Klaus yelled out in pain as he looked up, pointing at Grey.
His face was currently covered in dust, and the left side of his eyes was black.
Grey snickered before heading back to their table victoriously.
Blake shook his head when he saw the duo’s expression, they still behaved the same way they did back at the Academy. Klaus seemed to always have an effect on Grey.
He recalled that the first time Grey came to this town, he didn’t have such an expression, rather, he looked kind of moody. But now, he was having fun with his friend.
Void was currently held by Oliver, he was curiously studying this strange black cat. This was the first time he was seeing this strange cat, and he couldn’t deny the fact that it piqued his interest.
Klaus had spoken of the cat during their journey, but he didn’t talk much about it though. All he said was that it was powerful, and had the darkness element. Oliver felt Void’s darkness element was the cause of his pitch-black fur.
He soon closed his eyes, trying to check his situation.
Grey and Klaus returned to their seats while looking at Oliver anxiously.
Although Grey recently asked old man Gerald to check Void’s condition, it had already been over a month now. There might be a possibility that Klaus’ father would notice something old man Gerald missed.
“Hmm, it’s just like you said, its consciousness is damaged. There are some natural treasures that can help, but given the damage it received, it would require a lot of it,” Oliver explained.
‘No wonder that drop didn’t work on it,’ Grey thought to himself.
“Okay, Dad, do you know any place where we can get these types of natural treasures?” Klaus asked.
“Unfortunately, the person who would’ve been able to easily get you one is Chris, and as you all know, we haven’t heard from him for almost one year now. I don’t go on expeditions, so most of the things I know are actually from him,” Oliver replied.
“But, there’s a high chance of seeing these types of natural treasures in the Magical Beasts’ forest.” He added.
“So you know if there are Resurgence Liquids in the Magical Beasts’ forest?” Grey asked curiously.
“Hmm, Resurgence Liquid…” Oliver thought deeply.
“Actually, there are. A few years ago when Chris went out to explore, he spoke of encountering a small pond of Resurgence Liquid deep in the forest. But he said he wasn’t interested in it, so he left without taking even a single drop,” Oliver said while shaking, clearly still annoyed by Chris’ decision.
“Moron!” He added in a low voice that only he could hear.
“Okay, then I’ll have to venture deep into the Magical Beasts’ forest,” Grey said.
“Hmm, that’s the only place I presume you can get it. But before going into the forest, head to the city before it. An auction is usually held there by explorers who find treasures in the Magical Beasts’ forest, you might be able to find what you want there,” Oliver advised.
“Okay Principal,” Grey nodded.
“Hey bud, should I come with you?” Klaus asked.
“It’ll be dangerous, and given my speed, it’ll be better for me to escape if I’m alone,” Grey explained.
“Yeah, I knew you’d reject, that was why I asked,” Klaus replied with a chuckle.
“What would you have done if I agreed?” Grey couldn’t help but ask.
“Heh! I would’ve run away before you woke up the next morning,” Klaus replied seriously.
Grey couldn’t help but laugh, he knew Klaus was only joking.
“I’ve been able to improve the device, and guess what?” He asked while handing one of the devices to Klaus.
“What?” Klaus took the device while studying it curiously.
“I’ve been able to make the communication device,” Grey said while taking out one for the communication devices.
Klaus was stunned when he heard this, he didn’t think Grey would really be able to make it this quickly.
“Wow! You’re great!” He exclaimed.
“Well, I got help from something else…” Grey told him of the one he got from old man Gerald and how he used it to make this one.
“The fact that you have the idea already shows how strangely your head works,” Klaus said.
“I’ll take that as a compliment,” Grey said.
Given how Klaus said it, it almost sounded like he was cursing him, but since that was how Klaus usually speaks, he didn’t want to think of it negatively.
