I Shall Evolve Everything-Chapter 47 A Meeting

After breakfast I headed out of the territory this time with both Aoif and Tama by my side. Delta and Melia were responsible for taking care of the territory while we were away.

Though just one of them would be enough to defend against anything that came by I didn't want to take chances with the elves setting up their territory near here.

If they could afford to send such skilled assassins against me then there were definitely more skilled enemies within their ranks.

We left the territory going south towards the desert, the Aethon that had found the realm protector hovering above us guiding us towards our destination.

Though it had only taken the Aethon a bit over two hours to make it there, that was not true for us as we could not fly nor could we trek as fast as him.

Even if we could, it would still take us longer as we would have to weave between the various trees and other foliage to avoid injury while running towards our destination.

So instead of wasting energy on a fruitless endeavor we instead took a nice jogging pace.

With both Aoif and I being at tier 7 our pace wasn't too bad at about 35-40 miles per hour but that was nothing compared to what Tama could do.

It was with that pace that we continued on until we came across something.

It was the trail of human feet.

Not just one or two people but at the very least 10.

"Should we check the trails out, Darwin?" Aoif asked.

"Yeah, we can take a little detour," I responded.

Once I had replied I took off following the trail.

After some time of following, we started to see signs of civilization. It wasn't advanced but I could definitely see a trail and following that trail led to a large wooden wall.

The wall was at least 8 or 9 feet tall, not that it would have stopped me regardless of its height but it was impressive that others could do this in such a short time.

Instead of knocking like a normal person I instead snuck up the wall to take a look at their territory.

There was no reason for me to interact with them even with their progress they most likely had nothing that I would want, however that might not be true in the future so I wanted to secure a good relationship with them seeing as they were able to make this much progress in the short time that we had been teleported to this realm.

After I was done checking out their territory I went back out to the front and knocked on their gate.

*BANG*

'I might have put too much power in that' I thought to myself. The little knock that I had intended instead turned into a deafening bang.

Immediately I could hear the scrambling of panicked feet on the ground.

Then after a moment there was a ding of a bell and the sounds stopped.

Jumping down from the wall was a person dressed in what looked like leather armor, most likely made by skinning and tanning some of the beasts around here.

In his hand was a crudely forged sword that paled in comparison to the spear that was fully reinforced in my hand.

Though compared to the rags of clothes that I was wearing he struck a rather heroic image.

Compared to the heroic image he displayed in jumping from the wall his voice sounded utterly pathetic.

It squeaked like a mouse and snake all mixed together.

"Who are you?" Though I think he was trying to come off as neither hostile nor welcoming he instead came off as some sort of child with the voice that he had.

It was hard to take him seriously with that kind of voice but I did try not to disrespect what I saw as the leader in my brief look over their territory.

"Darwin, I saw numerous tracks made by humans and came to investigate" there was no reason for me not to answer truthfully.

In all honesty they could not do anything to me. Even if they could, there was no chance that they had anything powerful enough to combat Tama.

"Darwin…" he whispered to himself, his eyes widening as he took me in.

I was not attempting to hold back my power as I did when I was trying to infiltrate them to spy on their territory so he could feel the full weight of my power.

"Yes" I answered the unintended question.

"I welcome you to our territory then, though we have nothing to offer we can at least give you a olace ti rest, us humans need to stick together, yes?" Although he smiled while giving the invitation I could see the dishonesty in his eyes and soul. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

It was not a harmful dishonesty, more like he had a problem he wanted to push onto me.

"I'll have to decline the offer, though I'm thankful for it all the same" I politely rejected the offer, I had no interest in whatever he was plotting but I also had no intention to break any possible ties that we could make in the future.

"If I may ask why?" The curious feeling his soul gave off told me there was no Ill will behind the question so I had no problem answering.

"I am hunting a beast right now then I need to get back to my own territory."

After leaving the vicinity of their territory we headed back off to the desert.

This time there were no sudden interruptions. So it was after another hour or two of jogging that we made it into the desert.

It was weird though how the e forest just suddenly cut off.

The once green land suddenly being replaced with yellow sand. The once nonexistent sun being replaced with the blazing heat of the desert sun.

After much trekking through the blazing sun and sand we finally made it to where the Aethon had found the realm protector.
