Chapter 557: Escape
When Klein saw his limp body, he felt that this fellow was definitely malnourished for a long period of time and wasn’t suited for prolonged battles.
As expected, Demon King Saxe couldn’t hold on any longer.
With a plop, he knelt on the ground, gasping for air.
And because of Demon King Saxe’s crazy actions, the surrounding black mages didn’t dare to step forward.
They looked at their boss with fear in their eyes. He didn’t even have anyone to help him. What a miserable life!
Klein sneered and covered Gray with his invisibility cloak. Just like that, the three of them walked out of the dark cave right under Demon King Saxe’s nose.
At this moment, Gray’s heart was hanging in the air. He could finally relax and speak.
“I really didn’t expect the two of you to come and save me. This is too unexpected. We’ve only just met. We’re not even friends.”
Klein also heaved a sigh of relief. “You must know each other for a long time before you can be considered friends and partners? Even if you’ve only known each other for a few seconds and discovered that you share the same interests, you can still be considered friends who have gone through thick and thin together, right?”
At this moment, Gray realized that the friends he had just met were indeed very straightforward and liked to throw tantrums.
However, after saving the person, Klein was caught in a dilemma.
He also knew that Gray had been hiding in this world for a long time because of his special identity,
The matter from back then hadn’t been investigated clearly, and he didn’t seem to have any plans to clarify anything for himself.
If he rashly brought him back to the original space, would it cause another disturbance?
Even if he continued to stay in this space, the things that Gray had done were somewhat infuriating. He didn’t know if the local natives would forgive him.
Gray also realized that he had no way out. There was actually no place in this world that could accommodate and accept him…
He could not help but sigh softly, as if he did not know what to do.
At this moment, James spoke. “Oh, this small matter is nothing to worry about. Why don’t you just hide your identity for the time being? Previously, when you interacted with outsiders, you were wearing a crow mask. Let’s find a place to change our clothes. The new face of the past will appear in front of everyone. Who knew that you were once a subordinate of Demon King Saxe?”
As for what happened 20 years ago, some people had already begun to investigate.
It was believed that in the near future, Gray would be able to show his identity in front of everyone.
The world was so big. How could there not be a place for life?
Perhaps it was because he was encouraging his two friends, but there was also a look of joy on Gray’s face. This time, he could finally be considered to have escaped to heaven.
However, what they didn’t expect was that Demon King Saxe had actually set up a few layers of protective barriers in the outside world, as though he wanted to prevent them from escaping.
Just as Gray was at a loss, Klein used the same method to open up a small space, and the three of them successfully escaped.
Gray was somewhat shocked. He even touched the tier 10 weapon in Klein’s hand.
This seemed to be the first time he had seen such a high-end weapon in his life.
“That’s amazing. How did you obtain such a high-end weapon? This is a top-grade weapon that can not be synthesized even with money? How did you obtain it?”
Klein reached out and touched his nose. “I synthesized it myself. I won’t tell you about the synthesis process, but it does require a certain amount of luck…”
Klein remembered that at the most critical moment of the synthesis, there were only a few gems left.
If the synthesis failed, then the entire top-grade weapon would be ruined.
Gray patted Klein on the shoulder. “…You are a person who surprises me. It’s normal for you to be lucky. I believe that from now on, you will be even luckier!”
Gray wasn’t just talking about the top-grade weapon Klein had synthesized, he was also talking about the moonstone in his hands.
It was as though whenever there was a crisis, Klein would always think of ways to deal with the threats.
Finally walking out of Demon King Saxe’s territory, Klein knew that this petty person who would always seek revenge for his flaws would never let it go.
Once he recovered from his injuries, he would definitely make a comeback and cause trouble for a few people. He had to be prepared when he returned.
Knowing that Klein was back, Princess Anna’s eyes lit up, and she ran over and wrapped her arms around Klein’s waist.
From a look of worry to joy, although she lost all memory, she not too clear-headed.
But the Princess could tell from what other people were supposed to say that Klein was going to do something very dangerous and might not come back.
Being able to return this time could be considered a great blessing amidst misfortune.
Klein patted Princess Anna on the shoulder. “It’s all thanks to you this time. If you hadn’t given me such a precious moonstone, I wouldn’t have been able to escape unscathed!”
Princess Anna raised her head. Her eyes were extremely clear, as though they were twinkling with starlight.
“It’s good that you like it. I’ll give it to you! That’s the last gift my father left me!”
Having said that, Klein’s heart stirred as he grabbed Princess Anna’s shoulders tightly.
The bald uncle sighed and said, “What did you say? You just said that you still remember who your father is? Could it be that your memories are starting to recover?”
The Princess nodded gently, but her face still wore a confused expression.
The bald uncle sighed softly. “Ever since you left, the little girl has been restless and looks very anxious. She often crouches in a corner alone with her head in her hands. I don’t know what she’s thinking. I feel that she’s already slowly recovering her memories. As for what she’s recalling, I don’t know…”
If Princess Anna really thought of her father, it was very likely that she would remember many things before she was captured.
Klein shook Princess Anna’s body. He still remembered what he had promised Gray and began to guide her to recover his memories.
Klein looked at Princess Anna and said, “Then think carefully about what kind of person your father was. Did he tell you anything else when he gave you the moonstone? Also, do you remember who locked you up in that dark and deep place?”
Princess Anna blinked her eyes and then shook her head gently, as though she didn’t remember anything.
Following that, Princess Anna frowned slightly and pressed her hand on her temple, as though she already had a headache.
In other words, what Princess Anna remembered at that moment were only bits and pieces. It wasn’t enough to form a complete story.
Klein knew that he couldn’t rush things, so he could only pat Anna on the shoulder.
“Forget it. If you can’t remember, don’t force yourself. You’ll have a headache later. Since I’m back, I’ll take good care of you…”
