"Just where the heck did that fucker hid himself…"

Despite how great my energy and aurastic vision was, there were obvious limits to their use. In short words, if something would reach beyond the distance that my eyes could cover on a perfectly flat plain during the perfect weather and with nothing to obstruct my sight, then even those improved visions of mine would be incapable of perceiving it!

At least I could confirm one thing, he wasn't anywhere close to my house. As simple and irrelevant as it sounded, with how he knew that despite not liking each other all that much, I was still close with Celleria by some means, he had to realise that going against her would be akin to going against me!

"Just show yourself, you fucker…"

Muttering to my own content, I continued to run towards the local village. In just a few moments, I entered the wide streets of the settlement, chasing after the mirage that I had no way of locating.

But no, going around in circles like that didn't have any sense. Given the situation, something extremely important had to happen for Otto to make such a move! Unless he had some kind of backer that could support him from behind, there was no way he would be so stupid to assimilate Celleria's immortal blood! After all, given how close the people here were living to the real immortals, he had to know that reaching that stage meant that one would actually turn weaker than he was before, rather than suddenly growing in strength!

"Let's check the castle then…"

Unsurprisingly enough, as soon as I raised my eyes towards the hill on which Makay's manor was located, my energy vision quickly proved that it wasn't as useless as I thought it was when it failed to help me track just where the heck did Otto go.

While it didn't happen in the normal vision, preventing any of the common folk from noticing the huge commotion happening on the hill, one I switched to my energy vision and focused all my attention to that place, there was only one word that came to my mind.

Carnage.

With how violently the different shapes and colours of energy were clashing against each other, there was no way I would ever believe it was just the lord doing some light exercises.

Armed with this new knowledge, I didn't dare to waste even a single second more.

"Bonger, I know that you are busy cultivating your body, but right now it's not the time for this. Stop acting like nothing around me has anything to do with you, and go stay with Eve. I won't be able to handle it if anything were to happen to her now."

Even though I was completely sure that my house was safe when I left it, it couldn't be said about the near future. Just looking at the scale of the ongoing fight at the lord's manor, I couldn't be sure that by going there, I would be able to leave that place unscathed. Unless I was willing to once again present the world with the devastating power of the apocalypse class spell, then I would have to limit myself to banking on my experience in using entropy, rather than the overwhelming power that used to always accompany me during all the adventures ever since I left the arena town!

"Come on, it took you long enough to call me up. What, the cuddly life with your fiance made you forget your old buddies, didn't it?"

Appearing right in front of my eyes as if it was nothing for him, Bonger finally presented the results of his private cultivation. Rather than looking like weirdly detailed stickman, his body now was properly divided into limbs, corpus and head, along with each part of it keeping a healthy amount of details that didn't make one's mind short wire by just looking at him.

"What? I left you alone because you were cultivating, and now you are going to take it against me?"

As sure as anyone hearing that exchange would be that I was actually pissed off at Bonger's words, in fact, it was nothing short of the typical friendly banter between two people that knew each other for long enough that they knew that his kind of pissing contest didn't really have any real meaning.

"While I was cultivating, you were using your unique levelled up skills to cultivate smut romance with your girlfriend, and now you dare to speak against me?! Anyway, it seems that you are in a hurry, so yeah, I will make sure that the girls will be safe. If something appears that will be beyond my ability to cope with though…"

Seeing the hint of hesitation on Bonger's face, my face that lighted up during the course of our small exchange, nearly instantly soured back down to perfectly calm and serious one.

"Just keep me in informed. In case of emergencies, I will do my best to arrive at the scene as quickly as possible."

With a simple nod of our heads sufficient as the parting gesture, we both went our ways. In just a few more moments, I was about to finish climbing up the hill where the Lord's castle was located, when a familiar voice interrupted my steps.

"Hello. Is it me you're looking for?"

Sitting on a stray boulder beside the street, Otto was looking at me with a perverted smile, as if he was about to flaunt how he used Celleria's naivety for his own purposes.

"I can see it in your eyes."

Inevitably responding with the remaining part of the lyrics of the popular song that Otto coincidentally used to greet me, I was about to come up with some kind of explanation to what the heck I saw in his eyes when his next sentence froze the blood in my veins.

"I can see it in your smile. Your system is all I ever wanted, and my arms are open for it wide!"
