Chapter 275 Emergence From The Depths

"Sir Ralyks... there's another issue to address."

Rey could already feel himself getting excited about the upcoming event that he barely caught what Rebal said.

"Is it still about the Dark Gathering?" He asked.

"Yes."

Rey felt interested, so he perked up his attention and gestured for Rebal to continue.

"The Dark Gathering is in four days, and the journey from here to the Allied Merchant City takes about three days. If we want to leave, we have to go as soon as possible."

With the tone Rebal used, Rey could already figure out the undertones that were implied.

'It's possible that Scylla tries to delay our arrival so that we end up missing the Dark Gathering, hence killing Rebal and everyone else.'

It was a pretty easy way to get rid of their adversaries.

'If I thought about it, there's no way they didn't consider it too.'

In order to be safe, it was easy to leave as early as possible, and even that wouldn't ensure they would make it in time.

But...

"There's no need to concern yourselves with that. I can easily teleport you to the Merchant City when the time arrives." Rey shrugged.

"A-ah! That's true!" Rebal beamed, and so did the rest of his audience.

Seeing such a sheepish expression from the older man made Rey feel a strange sense of satisfaction.

'I haven't been to the Merchant City yet, but I have traveled somewhere close. If I teleport there and navigate my way to the City, I should be good...'

It probably wouldn't take more than three to five hours, so Reyn wasn't particularly concerned about it.

"You can begin your preparations, though. We can also trick the enemy by pretending like you left early so they can make more obvious moves."

In the end, it was beneficial for Scylla and her New Order to believe that the Blanc and Verte house were at their mercy.

'Let's see how it goes. For now, though, there's something else I want to try.'

Rey decided it was time to wrap things up with the KariBlanc Group and venture somewhere else.

Once he rose to his feet, everyone followed.

After they bowed to him and thanked him profusely, he waved them farewell and teleported away.

To the three who observed him leave, they only saw a dark hero who would save them from certain doom.

However, the true man under the mask was a tiny bit different.

*******

Rey was shaking in excitement.

All the news he had just heard was making something within his body boil, and his heart was racing with anticipation.

He wanted it badly! To experience this Dark Gathering and create the perfect conclusion to the situation he placed himself in.

'But first...' Rey's thoughts flowed as he appeared in an entirely different space.

It wasn't anywhere close to the KariBlanc Group's residence, or his own room. This was a place of immense danger, obscured from the rest of the world.

—The 99th Floor of the Royal Dungeon.

'... Let's take care of business.'

He smiled as he looked all around at the massive space he now occupied.

Most of the Mana Crystals that caused the place to glow had been mined, so the area was shrouded in darkness.

With a single Light Magic Spell, however, illumination filled the entire expanse.

That would give him some EXP, and he would get new Skills for free.

'I hope that's not the case, though. I don't want to settle for an A-Tier Familiar...'

Rey took in a deep breath and chose his option.

The Absolute Tier.

Then—

~VWUUUUUUSSSHHH!~

Energy began to gather around the space in front of him. It formed a Magic Circle, one so complex and intricate that Alicia's own didn't even compare.

A powerful pressure surrounded the circle, and Rey began to see something emerge from its depths.

Sparks of black and white light flashed all over the glowing circle.

Crimson auras surrounded it as well.

"T-this... this is...!" Rey's eyes nearly bulged as he watched the creature that emerged from within the summoning Circle.

It was nothing like what Rey expected.

"... Meow."

The Absolute Beast was none other than a CAT!
