Odyssey of the Blind God
Chapter 481 Go Go

Even though the Oracle didn't want to leave, there was nothing she could do against it.

She had to leave because many tasks were waiting for her to solve them.

Their separation was not too emotional, but Nial had to acknowledge that it was a little sad.

The Oracle had been a comrade to him whose presence was not easily replaceable. She had not offered him much help other than creating the isolation space when he had fought the Keltia Heligav in Alliance City. Despite that, it had never really been boring with the Oracle.

Though it was not as if Nial would get bored easily because he had lots of things to do.

Ryu chirped out sadly and Nial caressed his little comrade. The Gryphon was probably the most emotional, and he would have an even harder time later as well.

Just as Nial had expected, he received a call not even half an hour after the Oracle left.

It was the Royal Princess who was calling him!

"We finished our business and will attack the Shelturion's laboratory this evening. Our cohort will set off in half an hour. If you want to join us, you should come to the center of the Forest of Life!" Princess Evalyne informed him, giving Nial the option to join them or to stay out of trouble.

However, Nial couldn't stay out of it, not anymore. He was already in the midst of the chaos, and it was time to clear up the mess the others had created!

"I will be there," Nial responded before hanging up.

He continued to caress Ryu for a few minutes before he went to his father.

"Can you take care of Ryu for a few days? I will leave with the cohort of the Royal Princess…and clear up some other trash when I'm already at it. It will probably take a few days, and I can hardly take Ryu with me," He asked his father, who nodded his head.

"Of course, I can take care of your little friend…but wasn't there someone else?" Miles responded with a faint smile, yet, feeling slightly confused.

Nial knew that his father was talking about the Oracle, but he could only shrug his shoulders.

"I don't know what you're talking about. There is only Ryu and I!" Nial responded, feeling slightly guilty.

'Sorry dad, but you probably won't remember the Oracle at all, after a while.'

"Is that so?...must be my memories then…weird. I could have sworn that there was someone by your side…am I already getting old?"

Miles scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, shrugging his shoulders after a while.

He squatted down on the ground and smiled at Ryu.

"We will be roommates for a while, isn't that nice?"

Ryu chirped as if he was trying to answer Miles, but there was no answer. Nial tried to hide his grin and he cleared his throat to make sure that he had their attention.

"I will take your leave then. Have some fun…but not too much to get into trouble!" Nial declared in a half-serious half-joking tone before he took their leave.

Everything he needed was in his spatial ring, Ryu would be fine as long as he stayed in or near the Forest of Life and his father would be fine as well!

Nial did not rush as he walked through the thicket of the Forest of Life after he jumped down from the elevated wooden hut. Instead, he walked slowly, taking every bit of information from his surrounding environment and the living beings.

There was not a single detail that escaped his senses, and he began to relax upon sensing the flora and fauna. A vast mixture of floral scents swirled around him, the life force of the Forest of Life that pulsated vigorously in the trees and plants around him was getting stronger the closer he came to the center and the different types of altered mana were getting stronger as well.

'To think that the altered mana doesn't try to devour or destroy each other in the center, that's a pretty impressive feat of the Forest of Life. The Dryads did a really good job there…'

Nial arrived at the center of the Forest of Life at the scheduled time but he could tell that the others were already waiting for him. Seeing that Nial was unhurriedly walking through the Forest of Life with his arms raised high into the air made them feel as if he was stretching his body. His eyes were closed and there was a faint smile on his lips.

Did he understand how serious the situation was? Not even the Royal Princess was sure about that as her eyes fell on Nial.

"Am I too late?...I shouldn't be…" Nial asked the Royal Princess when he reached her. He mumbled a few incomprehensible words under his breath before he turned silent.

"You are not too late. You're perfectly on time, to be precise… Either way, should I explain the plan again, or do you remember what we're going to do?" The Royal Princess asked while looking at Nial.

"I know the plan," Nial nodded his head before he began to summarize the plan's steps to her.

"We're going to teleport to the nearby region of the underground laboratory, activate the camouflage runic armaments, charge in the laboratory, kill the guard, and take everyone else in custody while making sure that they cannot commit suicide before we question them if there are other laboratories and their locations.

After that, we're going to message this Shelturion called Great Wirliam and tell him to compromise with us. The compromise will probably be something like; returning all slaves, helping us remove the addictive substance from within the bodies of the drug addicts, improve the Cultivation Drug's effects so that it won't turn anyone into an addict

If he won't compromise we will kill his alchemists, and figure out ways to make sure that he will have greater losses than receiving any benefits he will ever be able to get his hands on in Jundra. Maybe we should tell the higher-ups of the Shelturion about Great Wirliam…at least we will be able to prevent waging war with them."

In the end, Nial added the last few sentences that were related to messaging the Great Wirliam and ensuring that he will compromise with the Elves and humans from Jundra.

That was something he had come up with not too long ago, but it was the easiest way to make sure that most humans would be safe, that everyone would be helped, and that they would be getting their hands on a new friend…or maybe an acquaintance, who was good, if not the best at concocting potions and pills!

It would be great to make sure that nobody would think of humans as pushovers as well…and it was always great to prevent waging war if it was not really necessary. Rather than waging war, a win-win situation would be the best!

The Royal Princess and the cohort behind her looked at Nial without saying a word. Several seconds passed but they had yet to say anything.

Nial was just smiling and decided to wait for someone to comment.

"Your addition to our plan is pretty decent. It should be better to make friends rather than waging a war. It's too troublesome…not just for your race," Princess Evalyne said, motioning to one of the High Elves behind her.

Nial was not sure what exactly her gesture was supposed to mean, but that mystery was quickly solved.

The High Elf accessed the teleportation magic circle that had been engraved into the ground below them. The Forest of Life had supported the creation of the magic circle, providing it with a tremendous amount of power from the surrounding mana. Nial felt the mana swirling around him, surging inside the magic circle that began to heat up.

Nial closed his eyes and he released his range of perception to encompass the entire magic circle which he could see in his mind down to the finest details. He didn't miss a single thing, which caused him to smile lightly as he imprinted the magic circle in his mind.

'Maybe I will need that later…'

"You have your own camouflage runic armament, right?" Princess Evalyne inquired just to see that Nial pointed at a small emblem on his mantle.

"...Alright…"

'The emblem is his camouflage runic armament? I didn't even notice it… Wait…what tier is that armament?'

He didn't create it by himself….right?
