Chapter 85: A Peculiar Training Area, Being Trailed
The day was in its full brilliance as the open fields were brightly lit by the moist grasses, each reflecting the bright lights from the morning sun. While crowds of different races set traversed the coarse paths, Nero, who had already set out for the day's adventure, had already arrived at crossroads with a few tall trees around him.
At this moment, a few individuals gazed at in dark areas; their eyes showed a trace of coldness before they vanished, reporting to their respected sides.
Suddenly, one of the individuals appeared in an open field filled with roses and spoke in an odd tone, "The silver bird has taken flight..."
As if someone heard it, two beautiful blue eyes opened out of nowhere before a pleasant voice sounded, "Good, begin the operations, we will steal everything that drops from his monsters..."
"Understood," The other party said as they vanished.
The blue-eyed girl snorted as she thought, 'I won't stop until you apologize, humph!'
After saying this, she soon after faded away as if acting as the precursor to a stunning event.
On another side, Weizer was looking at one of the lackeys that had reported to him; his eyes coldly shone as he spoke, "Let's get ready, today I want to see if he will be praised as superior to myself!"
'Yes, young master!" The lackey replied as they vanished, Weizer also hurried followed as he didn't want to miss the exchange.
Much like Weizer and Lily, Poison Boy was currently speaking with his sister as a person walked up to him and spoke.
"That kid has already left, the details are on that note, now hurry and give me my payment!" The person said while tossing a paper to them.
After catching the paper and looking over it, Poison Boy nodded as he tossed a few coins over to the man who then left in satisfaction.
Ivy stared at her brother and spoke, "Big Brother, are you sure this is even necessary, isn't this fellow just some simple character? Why bother to challenge him at all?"
Poison Boy gritted his teeth and spoke, "He's acquired fame, If I can beat someone like this, then I might be able to grow more on the radar, I also want to be noticed by a few top figures before the Gate of Legends..."
Icy rolled her eye at those words as she gave him a mocking look and replied, 'Hehe, brother, I say you're only acting because you're still upset over that time..."
Poison Boy made an awkward look as he hurriedly replied, 'I-I-I most c-certainly am not! Hmph! Now enough jabbering, let's hurry and catch up to him!"
Following those words, he grabbed Ivy's hand and pulled her along despite her attempt to play no part in his act of vanity.
By this time, Nero had already left the sphere of Birgime for quite the distance. He looked around at the various paths on the Greater Plains that lead to different areas in confusion as he asked himself, 'So, where do I go now?'
Adult Nero looked at the routes before scratching his chin and replying, "Hmm, I believe that there was a pretty good hunting area to the north-western direction from here, it should lead to some woods, as for its name I can't remember, I didn't venture there before..."
Nero rolled his eyes and snorted; he didn't say anything because he knew that even if he were some strong figure, he wouldn't remember every detail of his past life.
Nero just took his first step on the coarse pathway, moving through a network of trees, but right at this time, he couldn't help but knit his brows as his sharp senses felt a few prying eyes.
Not looking with his eyes, he used his Spiritual Awareness to scan his surroundings without alerting anyone. As he did this, he saw a few figures following him from different corners.
Nero frowned as he didn't know who they were, though he managed to calm his mood and was no longer malicious, it didn't mean that he would easily forgive those who came to provoke his wrath.
'Hmph! I want to see just what they're really up to...' Nero said to himself with a cruel glint in his eyes, his suppressed bloodthirst began to rise as his hair danced up and down slightly.
Not wasting a single moment, he didn't even halt his pace as he continued towards the area of training, prepared to face any unexpected circumstances.
Adult Nero watched Nero from his consciousness as he floated in silence. He murmured, "Hmm, he's mostly recovered his state of being, but the previous event has still somewhat influenced his nature. I don't mind this at all; rather than having a complete change in personality, it's better to balance his current state and innate murderous desires."
While Adult Nero was in thought, Nero had already left from this area, vanishing beyond the distance through the long path that leads to a peculiar hunting ground.

In a private outdoor area of Birgime, a connection to the high-class building, a bright beam of light had fallen from the sky, forming into the figure of a petite beauty with long chestnut-colored hair. Her face carried a sullen look, as at this moment, she looked no different from a small loli that had been wronged.
Suddenly, another light source beamed from the sky, forming into a sturdy built man garbed in armor and excellent gear.
As he gained his ground, he looked at her and sighed before speaking, "Come one now, Elly, it's not like it was that bad..."
Elly, who was only one step from tears glared at Raynas as she snapped, "Brother, I hate you! Why did you tell mother those things?"
As Elly said this, her sullen face turned slightly reddish, recalling the strange accusations from her mother, but she soon recovered her anger as she glared at him.
Raynas sighed at this; he recalled how their mother had first cursed him out for not doing an excellent job of keeping an eye on her. Then he remembered how she grabbed eyes and lectured her on the matters of men and women.
"Elly, I... I didn't mean that way; mother was the one who overreacted about everything," Raynas said shamelessly, trying to pin the blame on her.
Elly, who appeared to didn't know which was right or wrong, made a puzzled look, after a while, she asked, "Really?"
Raynas bit his lips as his face turned a bit red due to his embarrassment as he forced out these words, "O-Of course, will your big brother ever lie to you?"
Elly gave him an in-depth look before she lowered her head while thinking, 'Hmph! You big liar, I'm going to tell mother on you!'
While Elly though this, however, she gave an innocent look and spoke, "Okay, I'll believe you brother,"
Raynas felt that her look was too adorable, he couldn't help but poke her cheek, but Elly snorted as she ran from the area while speaking, "Brother, let's go, we have to hurry and finish training. I want to participate in tomorrow's dungeon..."
Raynas made a deep sigh before he followed along as he replied, "Fine-fine... we'll go to that area,"
The brother and sister pair hurriedly left the town, but their path was curiously none other than the direction that Nero and his hostile company had traveled.
