732 Rage And Racial Skill— Reaper's Wrath (Part 3)

"They are the people who came here in search of rare treasures and to train themselves," Cedar explained to Evan when both of them noticed there were many people camping outside of the Dark Forest.

With his spiritual senses, Evan noticed that all the people who were camping outside of the forest were divided into different kinds of groups.

There were groups of Demons, Beastkins, Humans, Dwarfs and many other different races. Evan even noticed a group of elves.

Upon seeing the group of elves, killing intent flashed inside Cedar's eyes, but he forcefully suppressed it.

'There is no one here who is above Rank Two' Evan said to himself after looking at the groups of the people who were camping outside of the Dark Forest.

He was not surprised when he saw there was no one whose rank was higher than two because the people who were camping outside mainly came to explore the outer area of the Dark Forest.

The outer area of the Dark Forest is only useful for evolvers who are Rank two or below, so the people who are above Rank two will naturally move into the inner area of the Dark Forest instead of camping here.

"We will ignore them and move towards the city after leaving the forest" Cedar said to Evan just before they left the forest.

Evan nodded his head hearing Cedar as he was thinking the same.

In less than a minute, Evan and Cedar reached the end of the Dark Forest and arrived in the open area where people of different kinds of races were camping.

Just as Evan and Cedar noticed them with their spiritual senses, people who were keeping an eye on the surroundings also noticed them. So, when both of them exited the forest, many people looked in their direction.

Evan and Cedar ignored the glances that were directed towards them and continued to move forward after leaving the forest.

Many people looked at them but no one tried to stop them. Even the group of elves who were camping outside just glanced at them and didn't care much. There were many people who came to try their luck in the Dark Forest so they were not surprised upon seeing them.

As they moved forward, Evan couldn't help but frown. For some reason, he felt many people were looking at him with a scornful look.

Cedar also noticed this anomaly and frowned upon seeing the scornful glances directed towards Evan.

But soon something clicked in his mind and he sneered inwardly, finally understanding why they were looking at Evan like this.

'Hypocritical Bastards...' Cedar said and signalled Evan to speed up.

Evan nodded his head seeing Cedar's signal and both of them quickly left from there.

Soon, Cedar and Evan were far away from the Dark Forest, and they couldn't feel anyone's presence around them.

Even after leaving that area, Evan was still wondering why people were looking at him with a scornful look.

'Is it because I am just a Beginner Level Rank One Core Evolver?' Evan thought inwardly, but he quickly dispelled this thought as he even noticed some S Rankers were also giving him scornful looks.

If it was because of his Rank, then the people who were lower rank than him wouldn't have looked at him like that.

"Are you wondering why they were giving you a scornful look?" Cedar asked when he saw the confused look on Evan's face.

"Yes.." Evan nodded when he heard Cedar and asked him in a curious voice. "Do you know why?"

Cedar smiled when he heard Evan and said in a voice filled with disdain.

"They were looking at you like that because they thought you were a half-elf."

"Half-elf?" Evan raised an eyebrow, and for some reason, every fibre of his being felt disgusted when he heard Cedar's words.

"Ummm..." Cedar nodded his head and said in a helpless voice, "Your look is very similar to an elf, but the aura around you is very different from an elf, which is why most of the people who saw you earlier must have thought that you are a half-elf."

"Is there much discrimination against mixed blood in Utopia?"Evan asked with a frown on his face.

"Not all the races discriminate against the mixed bloods, but the situation of the half-elves is quite different."

"I see..." Evan nodded his head hearing Cedar and didn't really care about what the people thought about him. He wasn't even interested in hearing why the situation of half-elves was different from others because, for some reason, he felt disgusted just thinking about how his race was being mistaken as another race again and again by people.

There was a strange sense of superiority deep inside him. This sense of superiority was rooted deep inside his blood, and it didn't want him to compare himself with other people. Not just half-elf, he felt it was an insult to him to be compared with any other race.

Cedar noticed that Evan didn't want to talk about this topic so he didn't choose to continue.

Using their high agility, both of them moved towards the Star City at rapid speed.

On the way to the city, they encountered many people who were similar to them, either going towards the city or heading to the Dark Forest in search of fortune.

Cedar and Evan continued to move for hours without taking any breaks. Around ten hours later, when it was completely dark, both of them stopped near a mountain area.

"Let's spend the night here. We will move once again tomorrow morning," Cedar suggested after scanning the area around them with his spiritual senses.

Evan nodded his head, feeling a little tired after continuously moving for hours without taking any breaks.

Seeing Evan nodding his head, Cedar took out wood from his storage ring and lit up a campfire. Although both of them could clearly see even in this dark environment, they still needed the flame in order to cook their food.

As the fire illuminated their surroundings, Cedar looked at Evan who sat on the opposite side to him and sighed inwardly.

'I hope the incident that happened earlier won't affect our journey.'
