Chapter 672: The City...
FRRRUUUUSH
FRUUUUUHSHHH
It was the sound of snow whooshing around the place, spreading forth a deathly horrifying chill that would have gravely injured an uncovered ordinary mortal blowing through the bridge area.
Through the white snow, a figure, seemingly having become a part of it, could be seen walking on the cold bridge, his calm astral blue eyes looking into the distance.
Judging from his expression, he seemed to be bothered not by the snow at all, yet his eyes furrowed to some extent, something that could have only been due to worried thinking, and more revealing there was something definitely wrong about him.
The figure was none other than Zeras, and truly his mind was currently unsettled.
While he might have received the aim of his hope here in the area, there was still a problem. He didn’t have any source that told him the artifacts which he was looking for, the earring, was in the place, the so-called tower of God.
But judging from the fact that everyone around here seemed to leave for the tower, saying it holds great power, that was the only place he could reason for the earring he was requested to bring to be located.
But there was still one tiny problem, and that was the fact that he had no idea where the tower was!
He could see some notes that pieced about the hypothetical direction of the tower, but he couldn’t fully piece everything together before he was asked to leave by the Fuming Baltimore.
The situation could have been a lot more dangerous for the small family if they had caught him in a bad mood, but Zeras had chosen to simply respect their wishes and leave even though he had been rudely asked to do so.
It was fine to him because he had been through much worse. Anyone with his power might have gravely injured or even killed them off, but to injure life or even take it away due to that seemed a little too much to him.
And you know, I used to have one around a few thousand years ago. We used to play around our little home, and go on numerous adventures together.
Oh my, how pretty a lady she was.
And you know, we both together had 15 sons, and 600 daughters. We used to joke together of how fair the heavens is to us. You know, when my sons come of...”
And for the next 30 minutes straight, Zeras watched dumbly as the young man whose age could definitely not be up to 500 went on and on about his adventures for more than a thousand of years ago.
“Ahhh, it was such good timings. Now you see I’m a well-versed and ancient old monster, don’t you see?”
‘Yes. Perhaps a shameless, lying old piece of lecherous bastard!’ Zeras thought in his head.
“So, hmm-hmm. Might I ask why you have come to seek my blessing today...”
“I need a map.”
“Oh yes, a map? A map to where exactly?”
“A map to the Tower of God,” Zeras replied to him as the young man’s expression dropped for a few seconds before an incredibly bright smile appeared on his face.
“Of course, I do have that. There’s no map I don’t have, you know. See, here it is...” The young man said as he took a map off the table and passed it to Zeras.
Stretching forth his hands, Zeras wanted to accentuate the content of the map first, but before his finger could touch it, the map shifted back even faster, kept into the front pockets of the young man’s sleeves with incredibly fast and fluid motions.
