BXBX NOVEL 170 Chapter 170
'This is a lost cause. I would've rather not faced those creatures again. But, the shit That will happen soon will probably make me get involved without even trying.' Acht thought to himself as he walked with a calm look.
He was really hesitant about going there but when he thought about it, was there anything he could've done to maybe increase his chances of survival if things came down to a whole war or something of that sort? So, his only bet at this point was finding clues from those creatures inside the tanks.
'I also have the heart of one of these creatures inside me. Could that be of any help?' He pondered as he unconsciously touched his heart.
He had this organ inside of him for months now and except for the power called 'Gravity Domain' he didn't feel any other changes.
This new power he used when he fought Lein was very powerful and almost too good for his level.
Getting total control over an area around him is nothing short of amazing. However, even though he tried to activate this power again, he couldn't do so at all.
That led him to one conclusion.
'That power is only usable in certain situations. At least, that's the case for now.'
As he had such thoughts, the group reached the transportation portal and since this time was basically dawn, no one was there. The group then went through the gate and found themselves in a whole different place.
The moment Acht opened his eyes, a strong and cold wind hit his face like a rushing train. Then, a whole world that was seemingly colored white welcomed him.
He looked around him in stupefaction. This place was like a fairytale in itself.
The snowy ground where a small village was built with dark wood. Smoke was rising into the sky from the houses there.
In the background were mesmerizing mountain peaks that were akin to natural guardians for a beautiful place like this.
"Ah, I finally could get my long-awaited hot spring bath," Uli said as he tried to run into the village.
However, Torn grabbed his neck and said.
"Where do you think you are going?"
"H-Hey, I want my hot spring."
"Later, now we need to go and see this cave you have been talking about. Lead the way."
Torn's words seemed to make Uli even sadder as tears kept rolling down his face without him wiping them.
"You are horrible, Torn!!" He shouted.
"Whatever you think. Now, lead the way." He repeated the same words nonchalantly.
Uli then turned around and started walking in the opposite direction of the village into the mountains on the horizon.
Acht looked behind him and there seemed to be no villagers close by to see them.
The group then started a long journey into the peaks, the cold weather would've been more than enough to kill a normal human. But, this group of people was far from normal.
Such cold weather was nothing but a breeze for them. They didn't even need any kind of heavy clothes for such a mission.
"Are you sure this is the right way?" Weltz asked with an annoyed look as he pulled out his leg from the thick snow.
"I am indeed a sad and worthless being but I never lose confidence in myself. This is for sure the right way, probably."
"Hey, you said 'probably' didn't you?!" Weltz shouted as he approached Uli angrily.
"Nooo! I am sure! I am sure!"
Everyone watched this interaction and could only sigh.
Uli kept getting farther and farther away from the group in fear of Weltz, however, when he was a certain distance away, a presence suddenly appeared behind him.
Uli looked behind as he sensed the huge shadow that loomed over him.
A huge polar bear double the size of a normal polar bear stood behind him on its two paws. It looked to be angry as it screeched and opened its jaw to eat Uli's head off.
"Hiiiii!!!" He yelled in fear and slipped down, falling on his ass.
The polar bear didn't wait and jumped on him to eat him. But, what happened next made Acht's eyes widen.
"No! Stay away from me!" Uli started sending random punches in different directions.
The polar bear didn't feel threatened as the punches looked weak and random. So, it just looked at him and left one of the punches to connect with its chest.
However, the moment the punch touched the polar bear, a huge force hit it and crushed its chest easily like a piece of cardboard.
Then, with a blurt of pain and suffering, the polar bear was sent flying up into the sky.
It was sent so far away that Acht was unable to see it after a few moments.
'Did he just send an 8-ton monster flying so far away without using soul force?!'
Yes, the fact that Uli didn't use one single speck of soul force was what made Acht open and close his eyes a few times to make sure he wasn't hallucinating.
"Fuuh. You sent that motherfucker flying to Ecrasia." Lein said as she made a gesture trying to look at the sky with her hand over her eyes.
"I was so scared, Lein!" Uli said as he grabbed Lein from her waist and tightly hugged her waist as if he was begging her.
"Let me go." She said with a pissed-off face.
"Noo! I was scared."
"I said let me go you stupid depressed fuck!" She shouted the second time and punched his head, sending him back to the ground.
The punch was so hard that it created a small hole in the ground. Such a hit was more than enough to kill a normal human immediately.
However, Uli just stood up the next second as if nothing happened. His face didn't even have a trace of the hit.
