Journey Of A Legend

Chapter 33: Forming A Team

After the incident calmed down, Greg's trial was successfully finished and he was accepted into the Dia Family.

As a reward for clearing the dual-zone all alone, he got five pieces of High-class energy crystals and also a Manifester ranked Soul Creature.

At the moment, he was sitting on his bed, while a fist-sized green crystal was melting into his palm.

'High-class energy crystal consumed'

With a satisfied smile, Greg turned on his watch and looked at his information on it.

Greg looked at his energy crystal data and after confirming that he did get five times ten points, he opened his Soul Creature's information.

Seeing the pieces of information about his newly get Soul Creature, he was satisfied.

"I'm somewhat familiar with the devil's powers, but that parasite ability is a bit unknown to me. I will go and ask around if I will have the time."

With that, he took out a small black box from his pocket and looked at it.

It was made out of black metal and its width and height was only an inch. It had a circular lock on the top.

What he needed to do, was to turn the lock in the right direction and it would open automatically and the Soul Creature in it will be his.

"I hope this Soul Creature will be useful."

As he said that, he grabbed the lock and turned it toward his right. In an instant, the top opened and a white light flew out of it and disappeared into Greg's chest.

'Soul Animal: Silver Wolf'

'Rank: Manifester'

'Enhance type: Heighten sensory'

Greg felt the information in his head and looked at his newly appearing data on his watch.

{Silver Wolf}

Rank: Manifester

Type: Enhance

Powers: Tracking, Sixth Sense

Energy Crystals: 0/500

(Can rank up once)

Greg looked at this and was surprised.

"These abilities are really useful. I hope I can try them out soon, especially that sixth sense. It seems that it can save me from a lot of trouble."

As he was looking at the pieces of information, suddenly he remembered something and summoned his Soul Stone.

His black colored Soul Stone appeared before him and floated gently in the air.

"Come out."

After talking toward the stone, with a sudden flash, a mask came out of it in an instant.

It was the artifact from the dual-zone, but because he was in a dire situation, he couldn't have a good look at it.

The mask was made out of black jade. It represented a smiling demon, while the smiling mouth and the eyes on it were blood red. It had a pair of black horns coming out of its forehead, while between them, a small white crystal could be seen.

"So artifacts have their own will and they choose their own master. The owner can use their powerfully, but only for a limited time, or that what I learned so far."

Back then, when he pushed the mask on his face a unique power covered him. It was like a small barrier was all around him, protecting him from anything dangerous.

When the devil shot at him those terrifying black smokes, the mask's power deflected everything to the side.

This happened a few times, but after a while, the rebounding force got weaker and weaker. If not for the devil's limited regeneration ability and for his Soul Pet's surprise attack with its wind slash, then he would be dead long ago.

"That creature was a terrifying foe indeed. If I didn't have this mask, those black larvas would have already eaten my body."

***

Time went by day after day. On the PGF, Greg won every fight after he challenged someone.

Of course, others didn't dare to fight him or Joe, but because of the rules, they couldn't avoid their challenge.

However after a week, Greg's first place got stolen by a guy with a shaggy hairstyle, whose ability was invisibility and because Joe got challenged more than he was, he fell back to third place.

After the last challenge, that day the PGF ended and Greg was walking next to Joe while looking at his watch.

"I want to go to a Dimensional Zone. Do you want to come with me?", asked Greg after looking at Joe.

Joe after thinking for a while nodded and said, "I couldn't go with you last time, so it's time that we go together into one. But unfortunately, my father can't help us with that matter, so we need to go to the Soul Association and register as a team."

"Then let's go. However, if I'm right we need two more members, no? So who should we invite?"

Just as Joe wanted to answer, a voice came from behind them.

"If it's not a problem we want to come with you guys."

Greg and Joe turned around and saw Emma and Mila standing behind them with a smile.

"Emma, Mila! Nice to meet you guys again.", said Greg with a smile, seeing the two after a long time.

Joe watched the two before him and looked at Greg with a confused look.

Greg laughed and said, "You remember the story where I got my mutated pet yes? They were the ones who helped me."

"Oh, come on. We all know that we shouldn't be here if it wasn't for you. Am I right, Emma?", asked Mila, while winking at Emma on her side.

Hearing this, Emma blushed slightly and nodded.

"Y-yeah."

Joe nodded and put his hand out, while he introduced himself with a smile.

"Hi, my name is Joseph Dia, but please call me Joe. It's my pleasure to meet with you."

"Nice to meet you. My name is Mila Bady, but please call me Mila. Here next to me is Emma."

As the two girls shook Joe's hand and introduced themselves, Greg asked, "So you guys want to come with us, yes?"

"Yes, if it's not a problem.", answered Mila instantly.

"Not at all. Let's get going then!", said Greg and with Joe, he turned around and started to walk away.

Seeing the two boy's back, Mila hit softly Emma's waist with her elbow and whispered, "Come on. Don't be so shy. You were the one who wanted to go with him, so why are so embarrassed suddenly? Maybe you fell in love with him?"

Hearing this, Emma's face turned red instantly, and said, "Don't be stupid. It's just that with him and Joe, it's much safer."

"Oh?"

Seeing Mila's smile, Emma blushed even more and started to walk forward hurriedly.

"Let's go. Let's not make them wait for us."

Mila hearing this could only smile and follow Emma and the two boys from behind toward the Soul Association.
