Chapter 473 - It Also Wanted Me

Jury soon left with Harmalia, Turen, and Rana using the same Demon Beast as before. After a while, Droman stopped by.

"So they're gone, huh? Well, we will be leaving soon as well. I'll just head to the Formations Guild Main Branch since there are a few things I want to take along with me. By the way, did you buy everything you think we'll be needing?"

Rean nodded as he replied.

"I did. From the 400 Rank Four Spirit Stones I had, I only have around a hundred remaining. However, I truly believe it will help a lot during the Circuitry Formation building."

Droman then looked at Qia before asking another question.

"You're sure about involving her and Havek in it as well, right?"

Qia was taken aback that Droman would bring that question in front of her. However, she could tell why. It was better to know his suspicion from the start to make it harder to try anything idiotic later. Well, she had no intention to go around telling others about the Circuity Formation project, so she didn't mind. Even if things with Rean really didn't work out, the 'freedom' she got was already more than worth it.

"Yes. I truly believe that Qia and Havek won't try to steal the project for themselves. Qia's reason is pretty obvious. As for Havek, well, he is just way too proud to allow himself to do such a thing."

Qia couldn't help but laugh before starting to imitate Havek's voice.

"He would probably say something like 'Why would this god need to steal someone's ideas? This god can and will have his own ideas, and they will be better than anyone else.'"

Rean laughed out loud after hearing that. He could totally see that happening.

"Alright."

Rean then looked at Roan before asking.

"By the way, where's Old Worm?"

Roan shrugged his shoulders as he uttered.

"As if I'd know. That guy is really slippery. Even I take some time to notice that he disappears every now and then. It probably has something to do with the Imperial Family's situation and the throne war."

Qia was aware that Rean married her to obtain easier access to information, so there wasn't a lot of reason to hide their intentions in front of her.

"I see... Oh well, let's get ready to depart."

Meanwhile, in a garden somewhere in the Core Region, Huan had just come back from another court session, drinking his tea to relax. However, he didn't have time to even sip at it before he narrowed his eyes.

"Since you're here, then drink some tea with me, will you?"

Sure enough, Old Worm had come by once again.

"I'll be leaving soon."

Huan shook his head.

"You should stay. It's annoying to take care of your clone alone. You already confirmed the prophecy, didn't you? You might as well leave it on its own and carve an easier path for it."

Old Worm didn't care, though.

"No. I want to see with my own eyes how they will develop. My disciple is very interesting, his brother even more so. Besides, I need to look at the target of the prophecy and see how it goes."

Huan shrugged his shoulders in the end.

"Well, it's not like I didn't expect you to say that. However, have you never thought that I could use this chance to turn everything upside down? What if I suddenly decide that it's better for Chrole to take control?"

Old Worm then showed a very rare smile as he replied.

"If that happens, then it will be even more interesting to see how the prophecy will come to fruition."

Huan felt annoyed at that answer.

"Tch! I don't know if it will really work. After all, it could be nothing more than a dying geezer's prank, as far as I know. Even if a target for it appeared there, it might be nothing more than pure coincidence. Nevertheless, I definitely don't want to be in the crossfire if it turns out to be real. I'm going to keep your clone there for now."

Old Worm nodded.

"Suit yourself. Let's just trust grandfather's last words. I'll prepare the terrain for it."

Old Worm then gulped the rest of the tea in his cup in one go before departing from the garden like a ghost. Seeing that happen made Huan sigh as he thought.

'That old geezer. Is it really that fun to spy on some kids?'

Huan then shook his head before putting those thoughts at the back of his head.

On the next day, Old Worm was already back at the Dalamu Residence. Droman also got everything he wanted from the guild and returned as well. With that, they gathered together and made their way to the teleport formations.

They already knew the way, so it was quite simple to reach the long-distance teleport formations in the outer city. After presenting their identity, they were allowed to use them. Qia then took one last look at the capital behind her. She had gone out before for training and things like that, but it was all temporary. This was the first time she was leaving for real.

Rean noticed that, so he asked.

"Are you fine? I don't mind letting you stay here while I head back. Some might find it strange or complain about it, but it's not like we can't work around it."

Qia's heart warmed up a bit, seeing how Rean still cared about her.

"And give some other woman the chance to take you away from me? That won't happen."

Rean shrugged his shoulders in response.

"Even if one does appear, you know our real type of relationship. So I would still go for her."

Qia already expected that answer, though.

"That won't happen. After all, you said that you simply couldn't have relationships. Whatever you had to do wouldn't allow you to do so. That being said, I'm delighted to be the only one with a real chance."

"Chance? Since when?"

Qia smiled as she looked at a specific part of Rean's body.

"Since it decided that it also wanted me."

Rean was speechless. She was still thinking about that night where he got hard in the very end.

Roan finally lost his patience and called the couple.

"Can you stop wasting our fucking time and hop on the teleport formation already?"

Qia laughed as she grabbed Rean's hand and stepped on the formation with him.

A few moments later, the group disappeared with a flash of silver light.
