Saber Monarch is looking at the flying metallic bug with a look of surprise. He is examining from different angles as it flew around him.
"Hello, Saber Monarch. I am the friend the Five-elemental King spoke of. I am Sam."
Sam's voice was heard through the bug. But the Saber Monarch didn't reply at all. He is still looking at the metallic bug like a kid who got a new toy. He was extremely curious and whenever he tried to catch it, it tried to dodge him. But the bug's speed is no match for his speed.
He caught it pretty easily.
"Don't do anything to it. It would be hard to create another distraction to send another device in. Just let if free and talk."
Sam said once again. But this guy is too curious to put it down.
"What kind of communication system is this? How come I get to speak to you without using spiritual sense?"
"Because, that is how I made that thing. Not only can I speak to you, I can see you picking your nose like a toddler."
As soon as he said that, the Saber monarch embarrassedly took out his finger from him nose and looked around in shock.
"You can really see me?"
"Yes, I can. Now can we talk about something important?"
Sam sounded exasperated. Back at the hiding spot, as Agar and Five-Elemental King looked into the crystal tablet, even they felt extremely frustrated by Saber Monarch's behavior. It has been almost thirty minutes since they sent the scroll in.
But they only got the signal before five minutes. God knows what this guy did all this while. And even after activating the bug, he still didn't talk anything useful.
Sam almost had second thoughts about recruiting this guy. Five elemental King is young for his cultivation, but he behaved wiselu, he even has an air of a scholar around him. But the Saber Monarch is completely behaving like a kid.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen a message came for him to activate something that could help me get out of that prison he was in, his first reaction to play with the thing and when the thing is giving out voice of someone that is willing to help him, his reaction is to ask how they reached him.
He got his priorities completely wrong and he is completely focusing on the wrong thing.
"Do you or do you not want to get out of this place?" Sam almost yelled out loud.
"Of course, I want to."
"Then just speak already. If you want to, I will explain how I can speak through that bug when you came out of that. Until then, just tell me what I ask for and do what I told you to do."
"Okay. What do you want me to do?" He finally asked this and Sam felt relieved to say the least.
"First, I want to know where the formation nodes are. This formation is extremely high grade and I cannot deduce the whole network of it just looking at it from outside. I want you to find all the energy nodes and for that you have to move around the maze along with the bug."
"Move around the maze? I don't want to do that."
Sam took a deep breath and asked.
"Why?"
"Because it is confusing."
"I don't want you to find a way out of the maze damn it. I just want you to move around in the maze with the bug. Just think of it as taking an aimless walk in the garden."
"But this is not a garden. There would be no walls in the garden." The Saber monarch spoke as he laid down on the ground and held the bug with his hands stretched out aiming at his own face and continued.
"Anyway, what is the point of moving around the Maze if you don't want me to find the way? Is Five-Elemental King there?"
Sam is almost losing it and asked the Five-elemental King to speak.
"Bert, it is me." He spoke and then the Saber Monarch's voice suddenly became brighter and there is a wide smile on his face.
"Hey Pent. It is nice talking to a friend after a long time. And who is this Sam guy? Is he even as smart as you made him to be? I mean what is the point of walking around in a maze if you don't want to find the way out."
"Then why don't you try to find the way out?"
"No, I don't want to. It is confusing."
Even Five-Elemental King is feeling a bit exasperated and yelled.
"Bert, I am going to tell you this one time and one time only. From what I learned, you will be stuck in that maze for forty years at the least before you could get out of there. That too if you have regular breakthroughs and resources as you used to have. But now, you are stuck there and no resources will be provided for you, so in a year or two, you would run out and have to cultivate purely based on the atmospheric spiritual energy.
There is no way you could breakthrough in the Astral Plane Transcendence without any resource.
So, if you want to come out. And even have any chance to remotely coming out. Shut the fuck up and do as you are told."
"Come on Pent, why are you so cranky? Do you have blue balls or something? I told you long ago. When was the last time you got laid? A decade ago? Go to the Reed Inn a few miles away and meet with Janine. She has auburn hair and trust me my friend. She is okay for everyth…"
"Bert, if you don't stop right now. I will leave you the fuck around here and get lost from here. You can stay here and life the rest of your life dying. And trust me your lovers will find someone to replace you and fill their satiety."
"Come on Pent. Don't be such an ass."
The three of them are losing patience and it took a lot of time before they managed to make him listen to them
Even then he was lazy as he walked around aimlessly and only covered half the maze.
But still Sam didn't feel entirely disappointed as he saw everywhere the bug went and started drawing a map on a large scroll.
After the whole thing was done, both of them went back to the center and Sam didn't talk to him anymore. This guy is a completely juvenile in a way.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut soon Sam realized that it is not his decision whether he could talk to that Saber Monarch or not.
Because the bug he sent has a function which ables that guy to contact Sam and the rest and if Sam knew that this guy is a nut job, he would have clearly made sure that the function was disabled.
"Hey, Pent. Come on, talk to me." The tablet glowed and the voice came from the speaker.
"What do you want Bert? You are being annoying."
"Come on, don't say that man. It has been a year since I talked to anyone. Be a friend. Anyway, don't you guys think this is unfair?"
"What is unfair? Us being annoyed by you when we are trying to get you out? Yes, it is unfair."
"No, Pent. You became dumb. It is unfair because you guys can see me, but I cannot. Come on. How is that fair?"
Sam just left the tablet with Five-Elemental King and left the spot to get some peace.
Meanwhile, somewhere far away, within a planet with joint ownership of the three families, the three family heads met.
"So, what do we have about the results of the sudden explosion? The whole hill exploded and there is no damage to anyone. There are no signs of activities, there are no signs of people nearby and we don't e4ven how it happened.
What is it?" The crimson lightning family head asked the other two.
"Just because you are out of realm doesn't mean we know more than you do. We just know what you know.
But I think it is better if we don't do anything, this might be some kind of prank, or some battle between some youngsters?" Another head said from the side.
"Yes, it could be except that is it is not. There are literally no signs.
I for one think that this is a distraction."
"Distraction for what? Entering the maze. If someone really wants to enter it, I might even let them go myself. If not for the fact that Saber Monarch is a nut case, he would have already been dead with all the confusion the maze brings."
"Except that there are no signs of any activity near the maze. There is no sign of any person walking near it. That everyday saber strike and that everyday message from the monarch are also there. I think this is irrelevant."
