- High fantasy is my personal favorite, followed closely by modern fantasy and post-apocalyptic, but I can happily play in any genre if the plot is good enough.
His benefactor's response left Caller internally flustered. Apologizing? To him? Again? He truly had met a very kind cultivator.
Caller wasn't really the arrogant type. He valued his sect and the people in it, and he didn't believe in making enemies for no reason. If an opportunity to do a good deed presented itself, he'd probably take it, especially if it didn't inconvenience him in any way. But he couldn't imagine apologizing over whether or not his words might have incidentally offended a weak, injured mortal. Was the mentality difference between the Great Realm and the Lower Realms truly that vast? If it was, he'd have to check his behavior more often as he got stronger. He didn't want anyone to notice something wrong.
Then again, he couldn't remember his seniors ever telling stories about blowing their cover because they weren't kind to mortals. Maybe it was just his benefactor.
But, he couldn't deny he was pleased and grateful at the opportunity her willingness to answer questions represented. It was the perfect chance for him to finally gain a bit of information about this world. Of course, he still had to be careful, but it seemed like he was finally about to get a chance to learn more about his main mission.
Alongside Du Fuyi's memories, Caller had also received vague knowledge of the task the Realmheart had given him, the task he would need to complete if he ever wanted to return to his main body in the Great Realm. The Realmheart wanted him to destroy the Frost Coral, an unknown being that was growing slowly, but ceaselessly. If it was ignored indefinitely, one day it would completely cover the entire realm, leaving no room for any beings that could not survive its arctic chill. It would spell a death sentence for the world's mortals, which would also eventually mean an end to all cultivators.
Would it be appropriate for him to ask about it? Then again, Caller didn't know what [i[else[/i] a mortal might ask about.
"Ummm..." Du Fuyi said, somewhat hesitantly. "Since it almost killed me, could you tell me more about the Frost Coral? Like, I know the basics. It's full of cold energy, and lots of frost beasts. But I've never heard of the sects living near it or wanting to use it. Why haven't they... gotten rid of it yet?"
Internally, Caller was quite pleased with his acting. His words were polite, but still filled with a touch of grievance. If all went according to plan, the lady cultivator before him would only think he was asking because he wouldn't have been harmed if the place had been destroyed in the past. Mortals were often petty like that, weren't they?
