The old man brought Dror's head close to his face and started sniffing on his face.
Dror wanted to yell out, what the fuck are you doing, but he couldn't find the strength to speak.
He couldn't even communicate with Nympho or Maya, The only hope he could see was the black statue making a move.
But the statue remained still just like any other statue.
After sniffing some more the old man released him and spoke.
" hmmm. Hah… where are my manners, I am sorry to make you feel uncomfortable…"
while speaking the man waved his hand and some kind of black animal leather appeared over his lower body.
Dror was yelling in his mind " what sorry , you fucking pervert, weirdo…."
But his face was calm and bowed to the old man while saying " No, no.. it is me who should be apologizing, for disturbing your meditation great sage…"
The old man looked at him and showed a weird smile "
Hahaha.. I like you, you can clearly bullshit with a straight face…"
Dror knew the sage could read his emotions and mind easily, but he didn't care.
" It's true that I felt a little anger towards what the great sage did, but you should know it was a natural reaction.."
" well said.. I like straight forward people… now tell me why have you come to this place.."
Dror could see that he couldn't hide much from this monster, so he explained about Earnest and why he was here in a short manner.
The old man showed a pleased smile " A living man who keeps his promise to the dead… good ..good.. I have decided to help you out with your promise, bring out that person's remains.."
Dror hesitated for a moment, but decided to believe the old man and brought out the remains of Earnest. In truth he didn't have much of a choice either.
The old man waved his staff lightly and a black aura enveloped the remains .
When the old man waved the staff a second time the earth split open like a great ravine.
Dror could see thousands and thousands of skeletons and remains that were intertwined with each other.
But soon most of the skeletons were moved apart to either sides, revealing two particular skeletons that flew out from the ravine. Then the ravine closed up as if nothing had happened.
One big and one small skeleton laid beside the remains of Earnest.
But as the three remains were brought close something surprising happened.
Three fingers on Earnest's hand started glowing and detached from his hands to form three glowing orbs.
A white one , a green one and a brown one.
The Old man had an amusing smile on his face as he laughed while saying " Haha… interesting really interesting….The day just gets better and better.. I met A living man who keeps his promise to the dead and now A dead man who repays the living…."
Dror was a little confused about what was happening before him, that is when he heard Nympho's voice " hmm… which star were you born under to be so lucky. They are death impartations that Earnest left for the person who helped him… The green one must be related to alchemy, the white one cultivation and the brown one smithing. "
Dror was in ecstasy, he knew exactly what death impartations were and they were exactly what he needed to improve his strength.
The old man looked at Dror in amusement and said " You are really an interesting fellow, that little sword of yours is also very interesting… I tried to read your destiny but it is continuously changing. Hmm… Destiny has brought us together and now I have to depart, If destiny arranges we will meet again…."
The old man waved his staff lightly again and a portal opened out of nowhere. Dror could see the other side of the portal clearly; it was an entirely different planet on the other side.
Before entering the portal the old man turned to Dror again and threw a small earthen bottle towards him.
" This is a parting gift from me … until next time then.."
Dror caught hold of the bottle while watching the portal disappear dumbstruck.
"That was interplanetary teleportation right, how strong was that old man exactly .."
Nympho replied " much more than you can imagine."
The energy required to teleport a small distance itself was high.
Even the space ships could only teleport a certain distance at a time, unless they were specially made or high class battleships.
While opening a direct portal was an entirely different thing and it required much higher power than teleportation.
The Evil sword and Maya were also limited by the distance they can teleport or open portals to.
...…
When it was closing to night Dror was sitting cross legged in a closed room. But if someone was to observe carefully they would notice that the room had neither windows nor any doors.
This was a stone room that Dror had created under earth with his earth manipulation, in a less inhabited area.
He was currently observing the three death impartations that he had gotten from Earnest.
Dror was beaming with a smile every now and then, the glee of obtaining something valuable could be clearly seen on his face.
The Evil sword could not help but express it's discomfort, because this guy has been staring at the death impartation for more than an hour " harrumph…. How long are you going to just stare at those…. Just swallow it and get it over with… what an idiot.."
Dror got out of his special state of enjoying his riches.
" you are just jealous… and you are sure that this will not have any negative effect on me or send me into a trance for years or something.."
Nympho curtly replied " How many times are you going to ask the same thing again and again… just get it done with."
"ok...ok.."
But Dror still didn't take the death impartation but scratched his beard as if trying to come to a decision.
After some pondering with a determined look he called " Maya.."
Shackles of Maya appeared out of nowhere and coiled around his hand softly like hugging him.
He took the green death impartation and extended it to Maya " This is for you to absorb it.."
Nympho couldn't stop from exclaiming in surprise " Huh… so you are not a complete idiot after all…"
Maya was hesitant for an instant, but for some reason it had a great allure for this green glowing orb, so it coiled around it.
The green orb disappeared as if absorbed by Maya instantly.
Dror was keenly observing Maya for any problems or changes, but it seemed like nothing happened.
" Thank you master…"
Dror was shocked by the voice that he heard.
Maya had spoken out and that too without any stutter for the first time, It appeared like her voice had also matured.
It was also the first time Maya had called him master or anything for that matter.
" you can speak clearly now, what else can you do now.."
" Master, there is nothing special that I can do, But I have received years of memories and experience relating to alchemy.
It feels like I have been practicing alchemy for years…. Maybe if master could give me the alchemy equipment later, I can try something.."
Dror was in cloud nine, the dollar signs in his eyes were glowing, he quickly took out all the equipment instantly.
But Maya didn't move as if she was a little troubled.
" Master, I can't experiment here in a closed room such as this, if an accident happens or some poisonous gas is formed it would be difficult to deal with and the ingredients react differently in different environments."
Dror was taken back and thought " maybe I was a little too enthusiastic .."
" pfft. And the greedy guy gets what was due.." nympho mocked.
Dror didn't care about Nympho so he was ready to take the equipment back, when Maya spoke again.
" Master, you can leave these equipment's with me , I have opened my personal space…."
Now Dror was clearly jealous. Only space elemental bodies or people with great affinity with space elements could open their own personal space like a space ring.
Both Nympho and Maya had great affinity towards space, and he was left in dust regarding this matter.
Maya felt like she was hesitating and she asked in a low voice " master can you also lend me some earth crystals…"
Dror knew that Maya had great attraction towards earth crystals, but now that he thought about it. He felt like this was more than just an attraction for her, it could be helping her in her cultivation.
This time Dror was really magnanimous and sent a big pile of earth crystals towards Maya.
Someone interrupted in the same mild manner as Maya " master please lend me some earth crystals too…
"
Of Course this was Nympho.
Nympho has been eyeing Dror's Earth crystals for a while. But Maya was attracted to them and always stayed with them like a bodyguard.
Dror gave a deaf ear to Nympho's antics, but he knew it was not going to end with him pretending deaf.
