Chapter 733: Bad habit



In the end, Hubert didn't give the spear to Kyle, claiming he had lost it in battle. But just who would have thought that Kyle had already marked the spear with his spiritual energy? Moreover, even though the spear was bound to Hubert, it seemed to prefer feeding off Kyle's spiritual energy.

So, instead of asking Hubert for the spear again, Kyle simply closed his eyes and tried to sense it. He felt a sense of satisfaction when the spear actually responded to him. It seemed that the old man had forgotten to store it in his mind space and had left it behind because he was too injured.

"Come back."

Kyle murmured, and he felt it distinctly when the spear started moving toward his location with lightning-fast speed.

....

In a distant place, Alec, the one who had discovered the familiar silver spear he had seen with Kyle floating in the void when he, Nine, and the elders found James's body, was jolted when the silver spear resting at his side suddenly began to stir.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He gripped the spear tightly, his brows furrowed as it struggled to break free from his hold. Unlike Nine who disappeared, he had returned with the elders and reunited with Carcel and the girls.

So, when he suddenly made a sound while Carcel, the girls, and many other men and women were meditating around him under the direct guidance of Old Hal's wife, Sophia-one of the seven elders who was teaching them how to harness their mental strength to confuse their enemies—everyone opened their eyes to see him being dragged by the silver spear in his hand, which seemed hell-bent on flying away.

Carcel's eyes flickered with amusement as he stood up and approached Alec, who was doing his best to hold onto the spear while trying not to cause it any harm.

After Alec returned with the spear, Carcel had actually asked him to lend it for a while since his main weapon was a spear, but Alec had refused, insisting he would damage such a beautiful weapon.

Now, watching Alec being laughed at by those around them, Carcel was itching to have his sweet revenge. He tapped Alec on the shoulder with a serious expression.

Although Hubert and Bia had already assured him that the planet was relatively safe, he still wanted to confirm that it was secure enough to stay for a while.

Ultimately, he discovered that the whole planet was primarily inhabited by monsters, with only a small population of humans and dwarfs residing in two cities located nearly on the opposite side of the planet.

After confirming that there were truly no major threats in the vicinity, Kyle suddenly asked Hubert if he could borrow a change of clothes from the old man.

Hubert raised an eyebrow but didn't dwell on it and handed Kyle a new set of clothes. However, he was left speechless when Bia informed him that Kyle had a bad habit of discarding his clothes simply because they were slightly torn or because he was too lazy to wash them.

"He had a similar habit when he first arrived in No Mana Land, but it improved over time since clothes were scarce there. To think he has started doing it again... But it's not like I have the strength to teach him the value of clothes. Besides, he can easily buy new ones from the cities on this planet."

With a shake of his head, Hubert simply began teaching Bia physical combat.

A week later, while Hubert was training Bia in the sky, Kyle sat atop a rocky structure in the forest with his eyes closed.

He was dressed in a pair of dark trousers and a fitted white shirt underneath a light blue sweater that he had bought from the human city on the planet, as he had no clothes left in his mind space.

Suddenly, his eyes flew open as he sensed the presence of the silver spear, which had come quite close to his location.

With a blink, Kyle vanished from his spot, only to reappear after a few seconds, this time with the spear in his hand.

The moment Hubert sensed the spear's presence, he cried out at it from a distance, his expression filled with grievance.

"You treacherous weapon! Who are you truly bonded with, me or Kyle?"
