The Author's POV
Chapter 719
A gentle breeze blew past, scattering the leaves of the nearby trees that made up the vast majority of the land.
The trees had enormous trunks, and their gnarled, twisted branches stretched up to the sky, intertwining with one another to form a canopy of green. .
There was a stillness in the air that resonated with the silence that lingered throughout, and the forest floor was like a damp carpet of leaves and earth that stretched endlessly.
It was an ever-changing place, filled with life and movement that constantly changed throughout the day; birds hopping from branch to branch, rabbits nibbling on an unsuspecting tuft of grass, and the occasional distant rustle from some unknown creature lurking in the shadows. .
All of a sudden…
Thump—! Thump—!
Repeated muffled thumps disturbed the stillness around the forest.
Thump—!
A black metal spike suddenly sprouted from the ground, shattering one of the trees in half.
It wasn't long after that when twelve more spikes erupted from the ground below, bringing down every tree in the immediate area with them.
It wasn't only the trees that shattered, but everything within the vicinity was also shredded apart.
A figure soon emerged from beneath the ground.
Extending his hand forward, the black spikes that stuck out from the ground slowly shrank back and merged with his hand.
"Almost there…"
Jin muttered while retracting his hand.
Although he hated to admit it, ever since he contracted with Ren and gained access to demonic energy, his control over the black threads improved by a large leap.
…and this was only a month into the trip.
By the end of the five months, things might be completely different…
"Not bad."
A voice sounded from behind, startling Jin whose head snapped back.
The moment he turned, he saw a figure leaning against a tree not so far away from him.
She waved her hand.
"It's been a while. You're a lot more handsome than I expected."
"It's you…"
He immediately recognized the figure. It was the Duchess.
Her appearance immediately made him wary as the thin threads that had receded into his hand suddenly started to cover his hand once more.
"What are you doing here?"
"Is this how you humans greet each other when they see an acquaintance?"
The Duchess stepped forward, exposing her beautiful face and pink hair that curled at the ends.
"…or is it that you're wary of me?"
"Yes, I'm wary of you."
Jin didn't deny it.
Although he had indeed interacted with her for a bit back in the estate, it didn't mean that he had lowered his guard against her.
It was very much still there, and the fact that she had found him when he had come here to train caused him to be even more cautious.
"How did you find me?"
He had left to train by himself. Apart from Ren, no one else knew where he was.
Actually, not even Ren knew where he was. He probably only had a general idea.
