Chapter 251-Meeting
Dave scanned his surroundings and realized that he was inside a carriage. He realized that someone had picked him up and treated his injuries.
"Hmm, looks like good people are bound to be helped by others someday."
He murmurs then the door opens, and a normal-looking maid enters his carriage. The maid was stunned to see him now awake but she forgot to move because she was mesmerized by his crystal blue eyes. She felt that her soul was being sucked.
Dave realized that even though he cannot use his mana, his physique is still strong enough to punch a True Immortal to death and his eyes still contain some of his energy. He can still use his eye powers and the system explained to him that he can use soul powers to activate his Ancestral Eyes.
Only his mana is sealed so he cannot use some of his skills, but his soul power and physical strength are not, so he is not afraid for his safety. He scanned the maid and saw that she was only a Saint Emperor but if she was in the mortal plane, she would surely not just be a maid and even become an Emperor of an Empire.
He was not shocked because he anticipated it. He believed that even a normal person here is a Sage and the spiritual energy here is thicker than in a normal plane.
He deactivated his Ancestral Eyes and said to her.
"Are you the one who saves me?"
His voice is calm and the maid who was mesmerized a while ago blushed when she realized what she was doing.
"It's good that you are awake, it's not me who saved you but our lady so you should be grateful."
The maid said but she is still confused why she was absent-minded a while ago.
"Lady?"
Dave caresses his chin and feels that he is good at attracting ladies even though his face has not recovered.
The maid suddenly left the carriage and went to the other carriage to notify his lady about his awakening. 5 minutes later, she went back and said that she would bring him to her lady.
Dave nodded as he wanted to thank her for helping him. He stands up but his injuries are there. The maid was amazed at how he could now stand up and even walk without help. She guides him towards the carriage.
….
Inside the carriage, Dave saw a beautiful woman sitting in the carriage. Her blue hair is shining but her eyes are cold. She is on par in terms of looks with Susan, but she is releasing a noble aura and clearly belongs to a rich family.
Dave is now sitting in front of her, and she is also scanning him but failed to see anything. Dave looks like a mortal right now and his face is disfigured.
"Thank you for saving me"
Dave thanked her with his heart as even if he is not a good person, he will remember the favors of those who do a good deed for him.
The lady didn't care and asked him. "Who are you? Where are you from?"
Dave replied.
"My name is Dave, and I am an ascendant"
Dave didn't hide the truth and he is not worried about it because ascending is normal here.
He just didn't reveal his full identity as it's better to be cautious.
"It makes sense, I detect that your body injuries are caused by lightning."
Dave realized that the woman in front of him is not simple. Her powers are clearly at Mid-tier Imperial Immortal and clearly be treated as a genius. She is 18 and she is the young miss of the Phoebe Family.
"So why did you save me?"
Dave's eyes whose calm was a while ago suddenly turn into a serious one. He knew that she already knew that he was an ascendant and she must have a motive in helping him.
The lady named, Hemire smiled and replied, "Well, I hope you can be my guard for a whole week."
Dave's eyes squinted but he was not against it as it was his way to pay back, but he asked, "Why me? Don't you see my condition?"
"Nothing, I just feel that you are different."
The lady replied but Dave clearly didn't believe her. She must have a reason, but he decided not to think of it.
"Okay, it's a deal, after a week my debt will be settled."
Dave knew that he must first investigate and gather knowledge about this world and this young lady may help him and give him shelter for the time being. He wanted to go to the Alexander Clan but it's better to not announce his identity as there may be some enemies lurking in the shadows.
Dave went back to the other carriage, and he was given a lot of food and potions to heal his injuries. He just stays inside the carriage for a whole day and meditates. His injuries are already healed but he decided to morph his face and continue to act like his face is ruined.
His body injuries are already healed due to his physique and with the help of the potions. He is also receiving a lot of knowledge about Lightning because of the laws he is being absorbed in. He felt that he could now control and summon lightning if he wished without using mana.
That is the advantage of learning the laws. Laws don't require the use of mana and can freely control the laws of nature. His progress is now 25% and still increasing because the system is still absorbing the Purple Lightning. He didn't expect that it would be a blessing in disguise, but he almost died because of it.
