Chapter 1196 - 1199: Reason

Nalan was looking in the direction where Riya and Samuel was located with a strange expression.

Uhm, not because he could see or hear anything.

Riya set up a protective formation around her temporary home and none of them could possibly crack.

But because…

The 'sun' had just gone down and the two of them had already locked themselves in their room. It was really hard for others not to guess what they were doing…

*cough*

Anyway, Nalan silently picked a place further away from the others and found Dina was intentionally picking the place furthest away but still within the concealment formation from Samuel and Riya.

It was obvious that Dina had suffered a lot from watching their dog food that they flaunted all the time.

"Ms. Dina?"

"You should get some rest." Dina glanced at Nalan, not that concerned about him. She had just read the guide book from Richard, but she knew very well what kind of temperament she has.

"Are you going too?" Nalan asked softly.

He himself will definitely go.

Because Nalan knew very well that his best ability was to create a temporary protective shield. Besides, without his cousin leading him, he wanted to follow others.

Rather than following people whom he really didn't know, it's better to follow these people who also came from the Green Planet.

"Yes." Dina's eyes flashed with fierce light.

She's a demonic magician and a demonic magicians are those who dared to bet with their entire life just for the slightest chance of improvement.

It was not like Dina wanted to go because of the Green Planet or for any noble cause.

But because Dina knew that she had to face a lot of danger and powerful magic beasts if she truly wanted to become stronger.

Otherwise, everything will be nothing but talk.

Besides…

There were checkpoints that they could visit where they might meet with people from Afirer Kingdom who were sent to this world.

Perhaps she could get some advice in regards of her path.

"In that case, we'll work together later, Ms. Dina." Nalan smiled.

Dina only nodded and then focused on reading while Nalan picked a place to build his own temporary shelter.

Ami herself will definitely go because she has an agreement with the others. If she stayed behind, would other people be wiling to find her a new body?

It was unlikely.

Murin had no intention to stay here because after asking around, he didn't find any good beast master with the same idea.

Perhaps if he could find the Queen and King of the magic beasts, he could persuade them to create a world where both humans and magic beasts could coexist together peacefully?

That would be like a dream coming true.

"In that case, I have to go too."

Murin's eyes were filled with anticipation.

On the other hand, Pena went out to find Yorick after the latter had finished scolding Richard and beat the latter up.

Seeing Yorick's expression, Pena could guess that Richard should be in a miserable state.

"Do you want to ask about the path above rank 10?" Yorick asked when he saw Pena.

"Yes."

"Hmm… I can't say."

"Why?"

"Because the paths above rank 10 is the path carved by every individual on their own… you'll understand once you reach it." Yorick shook his head and then looked at the area where the people from the Green Planet were located. "Are you confident in them?"

He didn't know any of the people who came with Pena.

After all, the Afirer Kingdom's affairs was so long ago for Yorick that for him to be able to remember Pena was already a feat in itself.

Too many people were forgotten in the river of time.

He had no ability to remember them anymore.

Besides…

Many of those whom he had high expectation of repeatedly failed again and again.

He had no hope for these people who came to the beast world.

"We all have reasons why we have to go," Pena said this simply.

He didn't know the others enough, but he could see that everyone tended to choose the option of leaving this place.

Even if they might not come to this world on their own free will but because of coercion from the Green Planet's Consciousness, but they were all stubborn people.

Geniuses who had their own minds were not usually so easily persuaded.

Besides…

"I myself have a reason why I have to go," Pena whispered in a low voice.

Yorick nodded.

He will not stop them nor will he encourage them to go, simply leaving things to fate.

"With your skills, why are you being here?" Pena asked another question.

"I'm guarding the real powerful magic beasts from coming to the passage when it was opened near this area. Otherwise, those planets will never have a chance to fulfill their promises," Yorick replied.

"I'm not the last, right?"

"No, there are still other planets." Yorick sighed.

Afirer Kingdom, which used to be full of glory were now nothing more than a piece of history.

And the people who remembered them were scattered all over the world, across one galaxy after another.

He will wait them here.

Or they would come from other areas that were guarded by others.

"I see."

Pena didn't say anything more and then left.

Yorick looked at Pena's departing back and smiled bitterly.

When would this end?

He had no idea.

…

The next morning, the seven of them gathered in front of Richard.

The people from the Brown Planet had already made their statement: they wanted to stay and guide the newbies, so they went out to hunt.

As for the seven of them…

"We're planning on going to the very center and try to fight against that Queen and King," Samuel said, looking towards the other six people.

Their expression was calm and composed.

It was obvious that everyone thought the same thing.

He smiled.

Even if their goals were not the same, their means to achieve the goal is still the same.
