Chapter 961: A Quick Rundown

Chapter 961: A Quick Rundown



If one were to describe how Sellifer and Valyr appeared before Noel's eyes, then it would be the word disheveled.

Looking as if they'd gone through an arduous journey over the past few days they were gone, the two looked for worse for wear, whether it was in their body language or in their overall appearance.

Between the two, Sellifer looked better off, with her appearance having not changed that much from the last time Noel had seen her.

Then again, a faint layer of dirt had accumulated on her skin over the past few days, which, when combined with the stress that was prevalent on her face, made her look a bit older than how she usually looked.

On the other hand, Valyr looked like he'd just barely escaped the pits of hell after roaming the Void World for the past few days.

What was once a dazzling set of armor had now turned into small chunks of metal fused together through the patchwork to offer the faintest sense of defense.

Aside from that, the man sported various wounds and injuries all over his body, ranging from bruises to puncture wounds, to lacerations and open cuts.

Seeing how the young man looked like he was on the verge of falling over, Noel looked at Valyr with a hint of concern, moving closer to the two as he planned on making use of the medicine and first aid he stored in his spatial bracelet.

Though, once he got closer to the two, he was able to feel their auras more clearly, causing him to be briefly confused as their auras made him feel like they hadn't gotten into trouble at all.

In fact, when he focused his senses on Valyr's aura, he felt the young man seemingly begin to meld with the blanket of darkness around them, taking on the strong empty feeling the darkness had and turning it into his own.

"Just as Valyr mentioned before, it's a long story." Sellifer looked back at Noel and gave him a wry smile before proceeding to give the old man a rundown of what the two had done.

With that, Noel gradually began to find out that Valyr had the capability to fight against Myth-level beings with ease, with the first few bouts the young man had against the Void Rabbits being the confirmation of his strength.

Hearing that his student's strength had grown to such a point, the old man was left at a complete loss for words, especially after finding out that the young man had even fought a few Myth-level Void Rabbits without relying on his arquebus.

Nevertheless, most of the time, Valyr relied on his arquebus, as well as his whole host of stat- boosting skills, allowing him to amass a great amount of Shadow Energy with ease.

"By the time roughly two days had passed since we began to roam the Void World, Valyr had already surpassed the amount of Shadow Energy you needed him to amass."

"In the end, he was only satisfied with returning after amassing almost double the figure you gave him."

At those words, Noel felt the thoughts in his mind click together, especially the faint sense of emptiness that he felt from the young man when he first sensed his aura.

'With that much Shadow Energy within his body, it definitely wouldn't be long till he gets his hands on Void Energy,' the old man mused to himself, thanking Sellifer for sharing her time to give him a quick rundown of what happened.

With that, the old man closed his eyes soon after, focusing all of his attention on purifying his mana to the stage of 3rd Cleansing.

Of course, Noel still spared a bit of his attention towards the young man, keeping an eye on him while he still rested.

After all, once the young man awoke from his slumber...

It was time for him to embrace the Void.
