Chapter 429 Useless
Chapter 429 Useless
After he finished explaining what the Evolution Stone was, Asura said, "Do you want to use it here?"
The way that he looked at me as he said this…
It was clear that he wanted to see me use this Evolution Stone.
It seemed like he wanted to see what would happen after my power was upgraded to the next level.
However, it wasn't as if that was something that I could show to just anyone.
If my power was only Suggestion like they believed it was, then that might have been fine. However, I had a completely different power that I couldn't show them or else it would be bad for me.
So I couldn't use this Evolution Stone in front of them.
Shaking my head, I said, "No, it's not safe to use it here."
The two of them slightly knitted their brows when they heard this, but they eventually gave nods in response to this.
I was prepared for them to look a bit offended, but it didn't seem like they were offended at all. It even seemed like they completely understood what I was trying to infer when I said that it wasn't safe here.
Though it was also clear that they had some kind of misunderstanding when it came to their understanding.
They didn't know about my real powers after all.
Since that was all that they had for me, Asura had Elliot escort me out just in case anything happened.
The things that they gave me were considered quite valuable and it was a fact that I was meeting with Asura, one of the top people of the Awakeners Association. If there was anyone watching, now would be the time to strike even if they didn't know the exact value of the items that I had.
So he sent Elliot to escort me out just in case.
As I was brought out, Elliot suddenly stopped and said, "I know that you must be feeling a bit overwhelmed by all of this and I understand if you have your doubts about all of this, but I just want to say that the chief does have the world's best intentions at heart. He's just a bit…" There was an awkward look that appeared on his face before he said, "Well, he's someone that goes at his own pace, so he isn't someone that is easy to get along with."
That could easily be taken as an understatement since I knew what kind of personality Asura had after my short meeting with him.
But I also knew there was a reason why people were willing to follow him.
So I just shook my head and said, "I understand. You don't need to worry about it, I won't hold it against him."
Elliot was surprised to hear this before suddenly revealing a smile. With that smile on his face, he patted me on the back and said, "I knew that there was a reason I liked you. It seems like you really do have a good eye."
I just smiled without saying anything.
After making sure that I didn't hold a grudge against them for what happened, Elliot sent me back to Su Chen who had been waiting for me the entire time.
He was the one that would bring me home after all as my handler.
It was a long few days, but it was finally over and I was able to go home.
The first thing that I did as soon as I got home was crash on my couch, but it wasn't as if I could completely crash yet. There was still something else that I had to take care of before crashing.
I took out the card and the stone that I received from the Awakeners Association.
The black card was certainly useful, but it wasn't something that could be used a lot.
Money was good, but it was also restrictive since it wasn't my money.
The Evolution Stone was what caught my attention more.
I was thinking about using it to power up the Demon King System, but…
"You should stop that thought. This is not something that you should use."
Lilith suddenly came out of my Storage Ring and landed in front of me to take the Evolution Stone from me.
After looking at it for a bit, she threw it onto the ground and said, "This thing is useless for you. You shouldn't even think about using it."
I was completely taken aback when I heard her say this as I didn't understand why she would say something like this.
I just looked at her in a daze for a bit before asking, "What do you mean by that?"
Lilith turned back to look at me with a strange look and was silent for a bit before saying, "This thing doesn't match you. It isn't a good fit for your power."
"My power? You mean the Demon King System?" I asked in a confused voice.
Though there was a part of me that was already thinking that this would be the case. This was something that would upgrade the power of those Awakeners that fought against the demon king, so it shouldn't be something that could be used to power up the demon king.
That would just go against the purpose that it was created for.
Lilith gave a nod before shaking her head and saying, "It's not just that."
I was even more confused when I heard this, but I still asked, "What about Suggestion? Wouldn't it work to make that stronger? It would be a good cover for me, wouldn't it?"
Lilith shook her head again before saying, "You shouldn't think about that. It's not good for you if you rely on that power too much."
I couldn't be more confused as I heard this.
What she said didn't seem to make any sense at all, but…
It didn't seem like she was planning on explaining herself as she said, "In short, this thing is useless to you and the people that are around you. You shouldn't think about using this thing."
