41 Chapter 41

"Hahaha! No problem. I understand. You don't have to be so polite. My compassion knows no bounds. Hehehe!" Quickstep said. He tried to imitate his aged clan elders' speech. They would talk in words full of wisdom and mystery. It was good to be showered with respect, Quickstep thought.

"Thank you, Your Excellency. It's the young generations' obligation to show proper respect to timeless beings like you. I would not be remiss to forget this responsibility." Octavio said reverently towards Quickstep. He bowed his head slightly at the end of his words.

"Will you let Rhixar go, Your Excellency?" Octavio asked after a moment of pause.

"Hmmm. As I've said, nothing more can be done for him, Octavio. It's better to just let him go to see the light. Don't worry for Rhixar will be on a new path now. Death is only just the beginning." Quickstep continued quoting the words of his clan elders.

Their vague and cryptic phrases came into life once more in his mouth. He enjoyed reminiscing those days. Those were happy times, he recalled.

"Your Excellency…" can you please stop blabbering drivel? Was what Octavio wanted to say but he caught himself on time. He found that this immortal was strange. Even his form was weird. The man stood 9 feet tall with bulging muscles all over his naked body.

His head was hairless. It was the tallest and biggest human expert he had ever seen. Of course, there were many techniques that could enlarge body size. But that would constantly release magic signature around its body.

Octavio thought that maybe the mystic employed by the immortal in front of him was beyond what he could ever comprehend. The oddest thing of all was his words. He just couldn't find any sense to what the immortal was saying.

"…can you please excuse me for a moment?" Octavio said to Quickstep after a 2 second pause.

"Sure. Leave Rhixar in my care. I will await your return." Quickstep assured Octavio.

"But will you…" Octavio started to say to Quickstep but was interrupted in the middle of his speech.

"Rest easy, my son. I won't release him from his suffering just yet. Go." Quickstep said. He was still in character. Cutting of someone's speech was also a must. He should try practicing this skill more, Quickstep thought.

"Thank you, Your Excellency!" Octavio replied then quickly left towards another direction in the battlefield. He thought that the bald immortal was getting creepier by the second. It just called him "my son". Octavio's body hairs stood up in discomfort the moment he heard those words.

The bald immortal together with that speech just wouldn't fit no matter how he looked at it. He went from a laughing fool to a wise sage in an instant. After all what he saw and heard, Octavio just wanted to get away from the bald immortal.

He was even beginning to question his sanity already. Dealing with immortals was a risky business indeed, Octavio approved.

"Hahaha! Look at him run! He can't stand my boundless knowledge. Hehehe!" Quickstep thought inside. He was pleased when he saw Octavio vanish from his sight. He saw himself in Octavio. It was the same result his elders would grant him after they offered their advice on him. He learned from the best, Quickstep believed.
