Chapter 58: Manug(7)
From what he understood he should be able to use these stones, the weird engravings on the inside of his body should allow him to absorb the powers, whether active or constant, he should be able to absorb them.
This almost made him smile, but not quite yet, Cades had to first know how it worked, maybe they got one each time they ranked up by an order or something of the likes.
After thinking and finally, subconsciously blinking once, causing the archer to finally stop staring at him as well and intently listening as Cades posed what he hoped to be his final question before he could ask about where they were, a matter that had completely evaded his attention until now.
"How do you get these stones?"
The archer, seemingly already expecting this smiled slightly, his perfect face seemingly growing even more entrancing, perhaps his emotions affected his power, Cades assumed.
And then the archer began talking once more, answering his questions, by now barely tense, feeling that Cades would most likely not kill him.
"Most of the time they just appear when we kill monsters, I'm fairly certain, however, that you aren't able to gain them if you didn't know that already.."
This was definitely not a good answer, Cades was disappointed by that, but now he could understand why the archer was this relaxed, maybe the archer knew this, he was helping that Cades would use him to gain more power, to kill others, to have him in his team.
But before that Cades had to ask something, he had to make sure and perhaps the archer had one of these stones with him right now, one that he could part with, no.. one that he would be forced to part ways with, whether he wanted to or not.
