When Did I Become An Artifact Dealer?!

Cail is now walking ahead with a small tail. A very small tail that won’t stop chattering.

His name is Veyr. A very curious child filled with wonders and questions. Cail had even thought about leaving him behind. But this kid, Veyr, was right about one thing: he could offer benefits that would make anyone tolerate his behavior.

While his ability is environment manipulation, that didn’t seem to be the case. Veyr can detect void artifacts, shifts in void energy, and other anomalies. He’s basically a walking detector.

Although Cail discovered that he couldn’t use any artifact beside his glasses, discovering artifacts is still good. This is his personal stash and he could sell it for whatever price he wanted.

This Veyr seemed to be a bit of an odd one, but Cail could manage it just fine.

Now, Veyr asked one of those strange questions. "Do you think my real parents were boring? Is that why they died first?"

Cail was holding his hand as they walked around the void. When he heard that question, he answered calmly, "Your biological parents seemed pathetic. That could be one of the reasons they died." Then Cail looked at Veyr. "You can detect the shift in the void. Why didn’t you warn your parents about the titan?"

While Veyr’s ability might be very useful to others, it’s not much to Cail. His glasses could see void energy, and he didn’t lack any artifacts. What he valued about this kid was his potential.

Hearing Cail’s question, the kid’s eyes shifted. Cail knew he wouldn’t answer it. It was obvious. Bringing his parents to the titan was this kid’s doing, but why? To kill them?

Cail was straightforward with his question. "You wanted to kill them?"

Veyr paused. "No," he answered unexpectedly.
