Hidden genius: Black belly snake

Chapter 387: Bad bunny Part2

"You guys are so boring!" Xavier leaned against a thick tree trunk and mumbled, with his right hand's little finger digging his ear.

Beside him Charlotte was sitting cross-legged and recuperating her stamina and mana, while Xander was busily dissecting a three-horned lion, peeling it from head to toe, part by part.

As an alchemist, he was curious about the thick mana strands and how they affected the physique down to the lowest detail.

So he ignored his brother's words and continued researching the various beasts. However, this did not deter Xavier from whining further.

"Huff! We have been doing this same thing for hours now, just hunting beast after beast! When will you both be satisfied?"

"If you continue distracting me, this is only going to get longer." Xander sighed.

"Aren't you in a hurry to find your wife and bring her back? Where did all the rush go?" Xavier cried in exasperation.

However, he instantly knew that he had gone a step too far when both his brother and Charlotte turned around to glare at him.

"Alright. Alright. Don't kill the messenger." Xavier backed away. He took out a fruit that he had purchased earlier and settled down with a helpless sigh to munch on the fruit in boredom.

Bassa, the town that they had just left from was mainly a fishing town and small in size, but thankfully since the adventure's guild in every town displayed missions available in the entire Kingdom, they were able to access all the available missions.

Different missions had different difficulty levels and they also had different rewards accordingly.

These were the only way to receive adventure guild points which were a must to access treasured and high-grade items.

It was truly an extensively designed system and even criminals were caught by assigning missions to capture them.

However, to Xavier's dismay, Xander and Charlotte were taking their time and attending to even the small missions like clearing out a herd of dire wolves from the town border and driving away apes from the herb fields.

These were far beneath their level, so he didn't think it was worth their time, but Charlotte and Xander seemed to think otherwise.

It was as if they were searching this world with a fine-tooth comb for Tang Yue and trying to understand every little thing around them, which was not really a bad thing but it was just boring.

"Umm Shall we head to the mountains? We can do the python valley mission and rest there for the night?" Raphina walked over to Xavier and playfully put her hands around him and suggested.

Xavier's mood immediately perked up a bit and he urged the duo as well. "Let's go. Come let's go to the mountains."

"I should have never brought you here." Xander sighed and rubbed his temples, but he ended up relenting as he as well felt that they had spent sufficient time looking at the weaker beasts and analyzing them.

Xander was an extremely cautious and analytic person by nature and he never jumped into things headfirst like Xavier.

"Alright. Let's go." He said and started walking, but he was not quite headed in the direction of the mountain.

"Umm Hey! That's not the way! We should head in the other direction!" Raphina quickly reminded him, by jumping up and down, which made her huge breasts jiggle and Xavier's eyes twinkle.

Xander, however, bluntly replied. "No, we are not doing that. We are heading out of the Myrian kingdom."

"White forest?" Charlotte who had been silently meditating all this time suddenly flashed her eyes open and asked.

Xander did not answer her and simply nodded. 

The mission report mentioned that there were traces of demonic cultivators presence in the white forest, killing and kidnapping several human beings and beast kin alike.

Since serpentine spirit beasts were considered to be demonic and banished from both the northern and southern territories, Xander wanted to hunt some of these demonic cultivators and find more information.

He hypothesized this to be the fastest way to gather information about Tang Yue's whereabouts.

And from the looks of it, Charlotte had come to the same conclusion as well and hence suggested the same place he had in mind.

The two of them still did not speak to each other and continued walking silently to the border of the Kingdom they were currently in, the Myrian Kingdom.

"Hmmm Wait for me." Xavier followed behind the two, whilst looking at the map they had recently purchased from the adventure's guild.

However, as the three elves continued walking, their other companion, the sweet and bubbly bunny girl had a weird expression on her face.

She took out a fist-sized pebble from her spatial ring and placed it on her lips to murmur something incomprehensible.

She then put it back into her ring, a big smile returning back to her face. "Wait for me, my darling." She ran and hugged Xavier from behind, the two of them then beginning to tease and tickle each other.

The group then walked right through the forests headed deeper into the mainland. However, not long after, Raphina once again stopped them.

"Guys, it's already dark outside. Let's rest for tonight." She insisted and pulled Xavier back.

"Hmmm Not necessary." Xander replied without turning back. There was a city marked on the map which was next to the border and he intended to rest there.

So he ignored both Xavier and the bunny girl's whining pleas and continued walking forward.

"Huff! Can we at least take a break for a few minutes?? I am starving, my darling, and I need to take a tinkle." Raphina stopped and pleaded.

Perhaps since they had been whining for so long, Charlotte found herself hungry as well so she stopped. In the end, Xander also had to stop, but he had a pensive look on his face.

He sat down leaning against a tree but his soul sense wandered, probing everything in and around them. He then quietly took out his sword and clenched it as he leaned back.
