The Seven Deadly Child
The Eternal Mystic Mist
"Hahahaha.I won again, you loser duo!" Theo laughed again, having once again won the race.
"The boss..! Tell me honestly, your weird gravity technique can be used on other people, right?" Asked Arthur, in a resentful tone.
"Whatchu mean? Trying to find another excuse?" Ask Theo back.
"Acknowledge the Boss! You cheated again! it's so strange that my body suddenly becomes heavy when it's just a few steps to finish!" Urge Arthur.
"Ohhh, it's so weird, maybe it's just your feeling! or maybe your stamina is not good. You should train your physical body as well after this! Don't be so lazy!"
"Or do you want to be as gleaming as the witch that's there? Who's just sleeping all day?" Theo continued, trying to divert the conversation by mocking Aria.
"Right, but lazy ahh, I'm a Soul Knight, why also train the physical body." Arthur replied, forgetting that he was upset with Theo.
When Theo and Arthur were busy talking, Aria who was usually very chatty, now looks silent. His eyes continued to pay attention to the direction behind them.
"Hmmm.... What fog is that?" Ask Aria suddenly.
"Mist?" Theo who heard Aria's words, immediately turned to the direction she was referring to.
As Aria said, in the direction of the rift of the hill, where they had previously stood. Now it is seen covered in a very thick white fog. This fog also walked quickly, starting to cover the entire gap area of the Merak hills around Theo group.
"Would we go back, I suddenly feel bad." Theo said, after noticing the white fog for a while.
"Hmmm..why so anxious, we will not go too deep, besides we do a race run one way ahead.just wait here a minute, later also another group overtake us."
"It would be very tiring if you had to go back and forth!" Arthur said, looking lazy to come back.
As Arthur finished his words, the strange fog that had been moving fast, now seemed to increase his speed, this fog headed towards Theo group even faster and in an instant closed all the areas.
"This mist is too thick, I can't see anything!" Aria said, as the fog finished enveloping them.
"Hurry to hold on tight to the two people next to you! This is no ordinary fog." Tiankong's voice suddenly sounded from beside Theo's ear.
Without asking any more questions, Theo immediately followed his Master's instructions, swiftly he grasped the hands of Aria and Arthur who were beside him.
"What are you doing? You pervert! dare to try to find an opportunity at a time like this!" Aria snapped, when she felt Theo clasping her hand tightly.
"Boss... What are you doing?" On the other hand, Arthur also protested, he really did not like anyone who treated him like a child.
"You guys just shut up, this is no ordinary mist! This fog was referred to as an eternal mystical fog!"
"At any time you release my hand, this mist will separate us! throw you to another location within this labyrinth-like gap!" Theo said, starting to explain the importance of the situation they are currently facing.
And of course, Theo knew all this information, from Tiankong who had just explained next to him.
"Hmmm…. It is only fitting that one who has no map will forever be lost in these hills." Tiankong started to comment.
"I'm now sure, apart from being a directional guide, the map I was referring to earlier must also have been specially designed by a formation expert. So as to allow the person who holds it, to avoid this fog." Tiankong.
"Hhhh, is there such a thing?" Ask Theo, feeling weird.
"Of course, the principle is almost the same as the Arsenic flower that you get from the hidden village region, if the flower is able to dispel the Spirit Beast, then the special materials made to make the map, if the flower is able to dispel the Spirit Beast, it's working to dispel this fog." Answer Tiankong.
"Master, are you going to tell me, this mist is from some kind of Spirit Beast?" Ask Theo again.
"Virtually precise, but not a Spirit Beast, but a Spirit Plant. This mist comes from one of the legendary Udumbara Flower variants. The Udumbara Dew." Tiankong closed his explanation.
"Then Master, after this, what should I do?" Ask Theo again.
"This is why you're lazy to read! whereas in the space-time bracelet library there is an explanation of the types of Udumbara flowers! Why did you miss it!" Dengus Tiankong's.
"Hehehe. Not to miss, it's just, I just briefly read it." Theo replied, putting on an awkward expression.
"Well, how would I ever leave you? Hmmmm…." Tiankong still looked annoyed.
"Hehe.pardon me Master, after this I will read more!" Reply Theo.
"No, I have a better idea! Didn't I tell you to copy all the books in the library? After this, whenever there is free time, copy all the books!" Tiankong.
"Master, all the books? You know there's tens of thousands.."
*Bleeetaack……!
"Shut up! this is an instruction, you dare to argue?" Tiankong snapped, hitting Theo hard on the head, cutting off his grievances.
"Ahh... I'm sorry, students will do it!" Theo replied firmly, swallowing back all the grievances he was about to utter. While enduring the pain in his head.
"Good, now circulate where the water is all over the body! that way your existence will be fused with the fog. After that this fog will ignore you!"
"Ohhh... Don't you have a technique that you call Ice Projection? I think that technique will be more efficient!" Tiankong.
Hearing that, without delaying any longer, Theo immediately activated his Ice Projection technique. And after being silent for a while, the sight before him began to return clear. The Eternal Mystical Mist that enveloped his group, slowly disappeared.
"Bright... That was dangerous, how would it be if we were separated in this strange labyrinth!" Theo said, when the fog had completely disappeared.
"Boss... Is it true what you said about the fog earlier?" Ask Arthur.
"Hmmm.. Did I ever lie to you?" Ask Theo back.
"What are you talking about? Obviously not too long ago you lied to me about using your weird Gravity technique in a running competition!" Dengus Arthur's.
"Haha... You still haven't let go of that, have you?" Theo just laughed out loud hearing it.
"Hmmm... Can you two just shut up for a second?" Aria who had not been in the conversation, suddenly spoke. His eyes did not pay attention to the surrounding environment.
"What else is it?" Ask Arthur.
Unlike Arthur, Theo now also observes around, just like Aria did.
"What the fuck, maybe?" Theo muttered.
A moment later, he focused his Mana of Gravity to lighten his body, after which it immediately jumped high into the air. When it reached a high enough position, Theo seemed to observe the environment for a while, until then fell back to the ground.
"How's it?" Aria asked when Theo had landed.
"It's pretty obvious, we're not currently in the same location as before." Answer Theo.
"What do you mean?" This time Arthur asked, and began to look around.
"It's bad, don't tell me we're lost!" Arthur muttered later.
