Dark Gnomes

Arlys took Grey back to the Middle Continent, heading to the Burchard Family. 

Compared to when Grey was traveling on his own, their speed was much faster. The cultivation level of the person taking him was much higher than his own. 

While they were going, they encountered three necromancers, all in the Early stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane, but Arlys easily took care of them. 

Some days later, Grey and Arlys arrived in the Burchard Family manor. When the guard outside saw Grey, they welcomed him inside and hurriedly went over to inform the Family Head of the Burchard Family. 

"You're back. I didn't think you would recover so early." The Family Head said as he approached Grey. 

"I'm stronger than I look." Grey chuckled. 

"I can see that." The Family Head said.

"I guess you're here to enter the secret realm, correct?" He asked.
