Chapter 609: [609] Trip!


    ?


    ''Now, how do I convince Sabrina?''


    n wondered as he opened a portal outside of her dorm room, He could talk with the Astral bond but felt this was more appropriate, Despite what Maxwell thought, n only barged into his personal space with the portals.


    He loved to annoy that man, and thus did it frequently. He did it with only him and a few others.


    Before knocking on the door, although it would be useless because the person on the other side was already aware of his presence, he kept thinking.


    ''Just why does she want me to bring her?''


    He was still unable to understand it, he first thought that maybe Sabrina had a connection with Lanesha or a dragon he was supposed to meet, like in the future. The past iterations could have this... But he didn''t recall anything of it. He had his memories, and those dreadful nightmares that informed him, but he never saw her, or anyone that looked like her.


    So to him, It couldn''t be him. He spent some time walking back and forth around her door, still confused.


    In the end, he let out a sigh and figured,


    "I''ll probably find out soon..."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Either Lanesha would tell him or it woulde to him naturally. He would find out soon enough...right? Yeah, that was right!


    [Will youe inside already?]


    Sabrina''s voice resounded in his mind, n stopped. It must have already been weird for her, She could not only sense his mana but the Astral bond would be telling her as well, of him walking right and left outside her door like a lunatic.


    "Alright..."


    He opened a portal and appeared right in her room, Sabrina was reading a book whilst sitting on a sofa, her hair was covered in a towel, and it appeared she just came out of the shower. A cup of coffee was present on the table.


    "Mind exining?"


    She asked, her eyes not leaving her book at all. n stared at her for a bit, the scent ofvender was thick in her room, She really liked that flower.


    "Stop being a creep, Al."


    Sighing, n finally convinced himself to say it.


    "Will you go on a trip with me?"


    Her eyes stopped reading the book, they froze, actually. She closed the thick book and looked up at n, a small smile on her face, but confusion as well.


    "A trip to where...exactly?"


    She was racking her brains, Earth didn''t have a lot of tourist spots left, with all the dungeons and monster threats. She argued she had probably visited every good one with her family. But perhaps going with n would be different.


    " A potentially dangerous that is very, very cold, filled with dangers."


    "... Quite an unexpected location for a trip."


    n let out a chuckle, Sabrina didn''t share his twisted sense of humor, however. Her eyes were still dubious, and her smile had long faded away. She looked at her boyfriend with aplicated gaze.


    "... Reasons?"


    She, of course, wanted to know why ''a trip'' was scheduled there, on such a dangerous. And why on Earth n wanted to bring her there. She was all there for romance, but this was excessive. She knew he could survive there, but doubted herself.


    "I received a quest, and was thinking maybe you could join me..."


    n made a fatal mistake, which was that Sabrina knew when he was telling the truth or not. The contract between them may have been broken, but the astral bond remained. Well, even without it, she could tell whether he was lying or not.


    n had the strange habit of always fiddling his fingers when he was not honest, and shared themon trait among many humans when lying, to refuse to look into the eyes, with her.


    "..."


    "Actually...it''s not one, we may have to go to multiples."


    "I''m not interested."


    "..."


    Yeah, this was how he expected it to go. He didn''t expect her to go with him at all, the lie he may have told may also have cemented her decision to not go at all.


    "Haaa... Look, I assume you already know what I am, a dragon."


    n decided to be fully honest, he didn''t know why he wasn''t honest at the start, it may have saved him from breaking her trust.


    "I have a guardian dragon, One I call my mother, Ok? She takes care of me, and she wants me to take a trial with my friends. Not alone. It''s all to receive an armor for me. Of course, there will be some benefits to you as well. One of the beings I need to meet in this trial is...the supreme being of Darkness."


    He continued, as Sabrina''s eyes widened.


    "He is her brother...and he may help you?"


    He seemed to be unsure of himself, but that was enough to convince Sabrina. She already struggled with that darn element when she didn''t have the gifts n gave her on. Unlike him, she didn''t have an endless supply of mana to support those two gifts all the time. Her crystal ball was her life-saver.


    "You can also learn a lot about magic."


    Ah, that was it. The main selling point. Hearing that, the light in her eyes sparkled, and she


    excitedly stood up.


    "So when are the two of us leaving?"


    ''I should have said that sooner...''


    Considering how obsessed she was with magic, it was obvious she would be smitten the moment he mentioned she would be able to learn more of it. He should have used this first...


    ''Damn it.''


    Lamenting at the fact that he didn''t use this technique first, he sighed and exined.


    "In a week, the rest have to get ready as well. Bring something to resist the cold."


    Suddenly, she paused.


    "The rest?"


    Noticing her confusion, n exined.


    "I meant my party, Predator. They areing as well."


    ''Huh?''


    Was he wrong? He thought he saw the light in her eyes dim.


    "Right... Of course, it would be like that."


    ''Why do you sound disappointed? The more, the better.''
