Towards the Unbeatable

Act 354: Old Places, Old Events, Old Memories

Mr. Housen finally got out of control and walked slowly, his footprints clearly visible on the sand. "We've arrived."

Mr. Housen, who did not hear further stories about Vincent's encounter with the devil, did not know clearly why he fell down while covering his face just as they arrived here, the reaction that made the question in his mind at this moment.

"What's wrong with her?"

Danny hears Mr. Housen's question, he turns to look back at how Vincent is doing, and it turns out that he still seems more frightened at the thought of recent events.

"He was afraid because the previous ability of the demon he had resisted changed his starting place to a place like this and he had to fight with him here." Danny explained briefly, which is the essence of everything he heard from Vincent's previous story.

Mr. Housen was holding his chin that was a little white gray there, as if thinking about something. "I didn't realize Vincent was going to be like this, but he should be able to improve soon, because we're going to train here."

Mr. Housen understands the fear the young man is feeling right now but adapting quickly is only his only option at the moment.

On the other hand Danny was still curious as to what he was thinking before, an unclear reason why they could get to this place so quickly.

"Mr Housen, how can we move from the previous high hill then now the beach? Was the high hill just an illusionary place?"

"Hm? No, before it was true we walked up the hill."

That short answer didn't really help Danny to understand what had really happened before, in fact, he was even more curious about what happened in a very short time before if it was not an illusion.

Danny took the time to think, it seems Mr. Housen did not explain it to him so much because he wanted to know for himself how they could get to this place.

If only they had moved places that fast, Danny thought it was teleportation magic because it was indeed a common magic when one or several people moved places quickly, he said, but unfortunately he could not also suspect that this was what happened earlier.

The problem is how they go to this place quickly, Danny knows that teleportation magic is a magic that emits a blue magic circle every time it is used and it does not immediately change places, it took time for the blue magic circle to be perfect and emit a bright light, but Danny had never seen this before.

So he thought that what had just happened was not teleportation magic, because it was so fast and to the point that he did not see any blue magic circles before.

So what exactly happened to the point that merrea could move places so quickly if it wasn't teleportation magic?

"Hmmmmm ...." Danny began to seriously think about this, so he was looking for something else that could be his speculation in the midst of confusion because Mr. Housen did not immediately tell what happened before.

He put his hand on his chin while looking up, a classic way to pose someone who is thinking.

Hm, if this is how it plays, this fast-moving incident must be a unique ability that only Mr. Housen has, can it not be like that?

Or maybe this has something to do with the power I currently have to gain? A precious gemstone? And if it is connected, right now Mr. Housen is holding a precious gemstone of speed.

If only the sudden displacement of the place happened quickly, could it be so?

"Speed," murmured Danny, he was still not sure so he said it slowly.

"What?" Danny did not expect the guess that he said slowly was even the right answer in response to what had happened a while ago.

Mr. Housen scraped something out of the multi-layered suit, and took out a bright yellow glowing stone, which was none other than the one Danny had been looking for on his trip this time.

"This, is the reason we can get to this beachfront so quickly, I use the power of the precious gemstone of speed." A brief explanation was finally said by the old man, who finally Danny could understand a little about this.

Patricia who was next to Danny did not really understand the current situation after all he had felt exhausted from using his abilities and did not pay much attention to the situation around the entire trip up the hill before, after all, and until now fatigue is still felt.

"Speed ...." Danny had not expected the power of this speed precious gemstone to be completely uncountable to him, either, even he did not realize how quickly the power moved this train and its contents from the hill to the beach area like this.

"Similar to teleportation magic isn't it?" Mr. Housen seems interested in talking about the power of this gemstone right now.

"Ahaha earlier I thought that indeed Master used teleportation magic earlier." Danny actually still does not think that it turns out that the speed is what brings them to a new place with an instant like this.

Mr. Housen directed his right hand which was holding the precious gemstone of speed which shone that yellow color.

Beautiful, such was every visible physicality of this precious gemstone, which was indeed a glowing stone and radiating great power simultaneously, seeing an unusual stone like this makes anyone interested in approaching even having it though.

"We moved from the hill area of the southern area earlier to a small empty island that was where I lived all this time."

"Master lives on an empty island?" Danny was astonished to hear this why would a precious gemstone holder have to live alone on an empty island like this?

"Yes, I don't think I've been living here for long, but it seems like my understanding will soon be different to what you think."

Danny could immediately understand why Mr. Housen spoke to him like that, so he understood the fact that in the eyes of humans it seemed like Mr. Housen had lived on this empty little island for a long time.

"Is it for the same reason?"

"Sure Danny, and because I love tranquility, so as long as I can be at peace in a beautiful place like this, after getting tired of going around trading I go here." The obvious reason expressed by the old man, it turns out that he has a hidden place that is unknown to many people on this small island.

"Then why did Master take us up to the top of the hill before? Why don't you just go here quickly?" Danny was curious about this, why should they go up the hill and spend some time while their destination was not the top of the hill?

"My reason is the same as before." Mr. Housen answered him short, it turned out that he was also more vigilant about the existence of demons and decided to buy time to pay attention to the circumstances around first before actually using the power of precious gemstones to move them to where they really are go, this place.

Mr. Housen looked closely, especially at the girl who was currently looking stupefied, and again a man who accidentally recalled the terrible incident that happened to him, he said, it didn't seem like a good decision if he decided to train them right now, he bagged back the gemstone and slightly changed his original plan.

"Look up on the train again, we'll go to my house, it's not so big but I hope you can be comfortable there, located in the middle of the island not far from here, you rest one night there."

Mr. Housen turned back and climbed back into his wheel, while Brock helped Vincent to stand up and get back on the freight train, as did Danny and Patricia, the four of them boarded back to the merchant carriage to stop by Mr. Housen's house on this empty island.
