Chapter 2637 The First to Decide to Leave the Spiritual World

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Weeks later, Vico and Maisie passed through the spatial distortion on their way back to the quasi-Space Kingdom of Minos in the far north of the planet.

The moment the two left the wormhole distortion they had come from, people in the area ran up to them, first recognizing Maisie, but soon realizing who the blond man next to her was.

"Your Majesty Travisani!" Shouted a dozen local 10th stage experts, realizing who Vico was before they noticed this guy's powerful aura.

But Aurae noticed Vico's presence first rather than this man's appearance, opening her eyes in the place where she was meditating. For a moment, she shivered in terror at Vico's power, which so surpassed that of Minos and the others from 17 years ago that she couldn't help but go pale.

Vico's aura was so much stronger than that of the most powerful of Minos' companions at that time that she couldn't even tell what level this blond man was at!

Quickly getting up and moving, she reached the place of arrivals and departures of this world, thinking that she would have problems; she would probably have to beg for the safety of this world.

But when she saw Minos' mother standing next to that blond man, the look on Aurae's face suddenly changed.

"Vico?" Her eyebrows drew together as she kept her mouth open, shocked that this man was there so soon, yet so strong.

Vico smiled at the blonde-haired, green-skinned elf, seeing how she looked exactly the same as when he left with the others. Her aura had hardly changed, either.

"Aurae..." He greeted her with a warm smile, wondering whether this woman would choose to stay or go.

Could Aurae withstand the temptation of knowing how strong she could become in a 'few' years of cultivation outside the Spiritual World?

"That... How? Why?" She asked with an expression of incomprehension, similar to the one some of Maisie's companions in The Adamant Land had looked at him with a few days earlier.

"It's a long story. Let's talk about it when we're together with the others. Now I'd like you to accompany me to Dry City. I intend to talk to the rest of the important members of the Stuart family about the issues you now have on your mind." He got straight to the point, avoiding unnecessary extraneous conversations.

At his current level, he could cross the continents of the Spiritual World in a few minutes, so it was best to wait!

Aurae nodded at him in agreement before asking. "But answer me this. Are the others all right? I didn't expect you back so soon."

Vico led the way, ignoring the many looks and respectful gestures in his direction, carrying Aurae and Maisie with his powers as he left the quasi-Space Kingdom of Minos.

"Yes, many things have happened, but when I left Zocarro with Callie, everything was fine for the companions." He replied as he found himself in the North Sea again, and couldn't help but feel various memories filling his mind with nostalgia, but also the sad experiences of the war.

His son had died in the war, along with almost his entire family. Apart from a few nephews and distant cousins, everyone who mattered to Vico had died. Not least because he had revolutionized the Eastern Empire before his departure with Minos and the others.

Aurae was oblivious to Vico's feelings and asked. "And Callie?"

Maisie answered in Vico's place. "She stayed in The Adamant Land to help strengthen that planet. In about a year, Senior Vico will return to The Adamant Land and Callie will stay in the Spiritual World for a year. After that, it will be time for them to leave for Zocarro with the group we've chosen."

"So that's it... I guess everything worked out for you. What levels are you and Callie currently at, Vico?" Aurae couldn't help wondering.

"Level 108." He said, already seeing the silhouette of the Central Continent ahead.

'Impressive... Eight levels in 17 years—no, it was certainly more than that. Still, impressive.' The elf couldn't help clenching her fists as she felt Vico's power enveloping her body, carrying her away with ease.

"The universe really is infinite. I didn't think that when we reached level 100, we'd still be so weak." She murmured in a contemplative tone.

"Even at level 114, we would still be weak. Compared to those above level 124, we're mere insects." Vico said, having heard of the Celestials' prowess.

"I see... Well, I wish to join the group leaving. I'll give my warning to my fellow tribesmen and the forces of the Spiritual World soon, but my mind is made up. I won't go back." She said in a firm tone, looking mainly at Maisie.

Maisie knew it would be a shame to lose this woman, but she really couldn't demand too much of Aurae. This elf had already been of great help to the forces of the two planets led by the Stuart family. Also, she could be of value in helping Minos and the rest of the individuals on Zocarro.

As weak as Aurae was now, Maisie had already heard from Vico about the plans to stop at The Enchanted Realm and about Minos' departure for Uzira. Whoever stayed behind in Zocarro could certainly take advantage of the potential of the Spiritual World's strongest elf after all the improvements she would undergo on this journey ahead!

"Don't worry, Senior, we'll take care of finding a replacement for your post. We still have 10 Divine Medicines and we'll soon have new level 99 Demigods to absorb some of them." Maisie said to Aurae.

Aurae knew this, which was one reason she had decided so quickly. Her tribe had also improved its strength in recent years, having got new elves of levels 97, 98 and 99.

With the current partnerships that The Adamant Land and the Spiritual World had with several worlds of the same level or higher than them, surely her tribe, the tribe of the most talented beings on both worlds, could thrive, even in her absence.

Vico just nodded to Aurae, pleased to see that she was so determined.

But soon they would spot the quasi-Spatial Kingdom of Dry City and stop talking, passing through the area's defenses and going straight to the imperial palace to talk to the core of Minos' family in this world.
