Chapter 217 Hot Springs
"If there was someone like that in history, I would have surely known about him… did someone erase my memory?"
Well, she reached the same conclusion to which I did. Though, after a brief pause, she then observed me for a few moments as she muttered,"Perhaps this is a part of his plan as well. No wonder there are so many anomalies here."
Seems like she came up with her own conclusion here. Well, if she doesn\'t mind her memories being sealed, then who am I to complain about it? The least I could do was be with her when she feels down.
"Now that I know everything, there is only one piece of advice I can provide you with, Michael," she looked at me with all seriousness as she spoke the same words as before but this adding something ridiculous to it,"Get to level 20 as fast as you can. Forget about everything else, and just do it. There should still be many, many zombies out there, so go and take care of them,"she said as she looked at me.
I could somehow see the urgency in her words and expression, but…
"No. I mean, I will get to Level 20, but I will do it at my own pace. First, I want to kill that bastard who killed my best friend. I cannot let him live peacefully after what he had done to us with his brother," I spoke, clearing my intentions, at which she kept gazing at me for a couple of minutes.
"Okay. How long will that take?"she asked again this time in a really serious tone and I pondered about the time it might take for it to be completed
"About a week at min? Maybe a month if that bastard is not here."
I could see her grow a little agitated as she spoke,"Are you sure that is all the time that you will take to reach Level 20?" and I nodded at her. I don\'t think I will need any more time than that to reach level 20. In fact, I said one month, but in actuality, I still think it was too much time for me to reach Level 20.
"Okay. I can wait that much then,"she spoke as she sighed really deep. Though in her eyes, I could see that she was still agitating. Perhaps she couldn\'t wait for me to reach Level 20 at all now.
\'Just why can\'t she open up to me directly? What\'s the point of hiding things?\' I thought, as it really confused me to some extent. She can choose to tell… or can she?\'
\'Hmmm… Maybe? I guess there must be something preventing her from telling me everything? That\'d actually fill the blanks here… I don\'t know… since we have already come this far, it doesn\'t hurt to wait a few more days, does it?\' I finalized my thoughts as I nodded at them before looking at Rhea and asking,
"Is there anything else you want to ask or share?"
"Nothing as of now,"she spoke with a small smile and I nodded at her before leaving back to the others, who were still eating blissfully. Perhaps because of the environment of the [Second Space], even after eating for this much time, their stomach could still take in food.
Though, after a few more minutes, all of them stopped eating as they lay down on their backs on the green grass as their eyes closed. Didn\'t even take a few seconds for most of them to fall asleep. The only ones awake were Angela, Enkonimiya and, surprisingly, the Medusae.
I saw Enkonomiya grabbing Angela\'s hand and bringing her to me, while Medusae walked one step at a time as she reached me. Their eyes gawked upon me as if I were a divine being or something and Miya spoke out,"Just who are you? I thought I was close to understand what you were but this… this is beyond what I can comprehend."
Miya wasn\'t sad by any means. In fact, those eyes were brimming with excitement as they looked at me. Even Angela, who was previously been looking at me with nonchalant eyes when we first met, now was smiling brightly.
"Well, a man needs to keep some things to himself, doesn\'t he?"I smirked as I looked at them and both of them smiled before Miya asked with excitement,"What else do you have? Do you have a river here? Or perhaps a hot spring?"
Hearing her words, Medusae and Angela\'s eyes opened up wide a little as they suddenly thought of this possibility. As for me… I was fantasizing about the bodies of Miya and Angela… They weren\'t ugly by any means, one was almost a god, while the other possessed beauty comparable to Goddess… it would be a dream of many to look at something like that.
"I need to see it,"I said as I looked at them, making Angela confused a little,"isn\'t this your space?"
I nodded at her before explaining,"Well, it would be better to explain things from ground zero. So, actually the thing is that all this carpet, and that tree didn\'t exist on this plane before. I had to, more or less, create them here using a part of my energy. So, yes, I can create a hot spring or a river, whatever you may want, but it might cost variables according to the demand. That is why I said that I need to see it."
Hearing my explanation, their eyes widened in realization,"so you can create anything you want as long as you have the energy?" Medusae asked, and I nodded.
Angela, who was lost in her own thought, spoke out,"my space creation gave me an entire planet and I could alter the ecosystem according to my wish. I didn\'t have the ability to create anything new, but only use what i already had there. But yours seems to allow you to add anything you desire as long as you have the energy for it."
It was the same thing which Medusae said, but in a more roundabout way. I then looked around for a couple of minutes before speaking,"so I should go and check-"
"Nope. It\'s fine,"Miya said, as she had her own thoughts on this matter."If you are using your own energy, then use it to your benefit, not us. Next time, or perhaps later when you have surplus energy, do it for us. A little amount of time does not matter to us."
\'But I want to see you guys naked,\' is not something I should directly blurt out. Well, I could only keep my mouth shut as I knew that I would be needing quite an amount of Cronas to create an entire river or hot spring. Which I probably did not possess.
"Sure. It won\'t take much time, but I hope you can wait for it," I spoke with a slight smile and all three of them nodded with slight disappointment. Miya then spoke out,
"We will be looking forward to it. Though, how long are we going to stay here? I guess we have 4 more hours, so I was wondering how we should utilize that time."
"Ah… about that…" I realized that I still haven\'t told them about the time difference…
