"Sir, please look at this!" Hazak double-tapped his glabella, summoning his tablet as he showed it to Krune. "I got one!"
"That's amazing. How did you manage that?" Krune asked. After he determined that Feifei was safe, he made a trip towards the cities, noticing Hazak running around like mad in search of her.
After that, he told him to return when Hazak said he noticed something, asking for a couple of days of permission. Once Krune permitted him, Hazak headed towards a battlefield, returning after two days when he showed the tablet to Krune.
"When I was searching for Lady Feifei, I also made way into the battlefields, just in case she had appeared there. A couple of humans attacked me at that time. When I wounded them, I could feel that something was different about me. Once I finished evolving into a Black Demon, I could feel it even more," Hazak explained.
It then bowed as it continued, "All I needed to do was devour ten humans and absorb their foundation to create my own tablet. I only targeted those that tried to kill me."
"That's fine by me," Krune told him in response, not affected by the death of humans. There was a time when he had even cooked them, so he never cared about them much in the first place. The racial sympathy between him and humans never existed in the first place. After all, he wasn't a human but a Wisp.
As long as they weren't anyone he cared about, he wasn't concerned with their life and death to a certain extent. Plus, since Hazak hadn't voluntarily hunted humans but had only killed the ones that tried to kill it, Krune's stance on the matter remained unchanging.
"Now that you also have a tablet, that means you can begin to accumulate some Godly Points. We'll definitely need as much as we can, so go ahead and kill some Demons." Krune then told him, "Only do it on the battlefields. Remain as discrete as possible. The moment a Black Demon tries to attack you, run away immediately. You're still not strong enough to face one head-on yet."
"Yes, Sir Krune." Hazak bowed before flying towards the flight of stairs leading towards a certain battlefield. It was smart, so it knew what to do, picking a battlefield where there weren't any Black Demons loitering about.
Krune then returned to his rounds, smiling every time he read Feifei's message, wondering just how strong she had become. "Soon! There are less than two years."
As for Feifei, she was training as usual, smiling when the size of her Monster Gecko began to increase. With her active ability's growth, her overall abilities took a spike in development. Thankfully for her, she was capable of using the miasma.
In short, to her, it was an endless cultivation resource that she could rely upon to grow stronger without any limitation. At present, she was meditating in her cave, absorbing the miasma as her Energy Sink converted it into the ocean water, storing it within the tiny world created by the passive ability.
The world of Energy Sink wasn't like Krune's subspace. She couldn't place or take out any items from within. The only thing she could do was turn any form of energy she absorbed into the ocean water to store within. And when needed, she could supplement her energy needs using it.
The best part of this Energy Sink was the fact that it was energy-exclusive space. So, Feifei was able to dump a tremendous reserve of energy into it. Unlike Krune's Ocean Heart that came accompanied by a couple of abilities, the function of Energy Sink was simply to store energy in it.
So, the sheer quantity of energy it contained grandly surpassed Ocean Heart. After all, the primary function of the Ocean Heart was being the heart of everything. That's how Krune was able to create his trump card, 'Dreams of the Heart: Ocean Turbulence.'
As for Feifei, she didn't have anything like Ocean Turbulence to rely upon. Nevertheless, the two of them had taken different directions of development. Krune went onto with the individualistic approach, increasing his fighting strength to the limit.
As for Feifei, she went through the army route. With Energy Sink, she had a tremendous reserve of energy to rely upon. Using the Bone Tree Monster Gecko, she was able to create an army of Monster Geckos to do her bidding.
Feifei continued to grow stronger while developing her passive abilities further as a result. After obtaining her active ability, she changed her entire arsenal of passive abilities to suit it. So, she hadn't familiarised enough with them.
And now, she was able to do so by fighting the demons daily. Her army of Monster Geckos created numerous pits for her while she lured in one demon after another, fighting it one-on-one as she trained her abilities, growing stronger as a result.
Her proficiency with using her abilities increased at a staggering rate as she was able to fight without rest. The miasma healed all her injuries and kept her fresh, allowing her to fight without any concerns.
Time passed in such a fashion as Feifei lost herself in her training. But all along, she kept an eye on the Black Demon nearby, alert that it would wake up the moment she revealed herself and attempt to kill her.
Through her senses, she was clearly able to feel it. That's why she told Krune to wait for two years first. It was to make some preparations so that she would have enough facility to survive long enough until Krune met with her.
Moreover, she also didn't wish for him to see her weak. So, she had planned to at least attain sizeable strength before that happened. Eventually, two years had passed since she had arrived at Layer 2.
Now, she had reached Tier 4, finished with all preparations for the encounter. Her heart thumped at the fact that she would reunite with her husband once again after more than 40 years had passed since they had been separated.
Today was the day she was supposed to meet Krune.
