Chapter 2524 A Pity
“W-What''s going on?” Ali squeezed out, still baffled.
“Did they run off because more powerful demon beasts areing?” the elderly viger from Rock
Vige wondered out loud.
“I think so. Why else would they be in such haste to flee?” another viger agreed.
“There aren''t any powerful demon beastsing. Jared must have been the one who scared them off!”
Percy loudly dered.
Even though the boy had no idea how Jared had managed to chase away the Demon Wolves, to him,
Jared seemed omnipotent, possessing extraordinary powers beyondprehension.
“All right, let''s not dwell on this. Let''s make ourselves scarce from this ce since the Demon Wolves
are gone. If theye back, or if anything more powerfules along, we''ll be in trouble again,” Ali
urged, gesturing for the others to start moving.
“Ali, what do we do with these Demon Wolf carcasses? We''ll be able to sell them for good money. It''d
be such a waste to leave them lying here,” pointed out one of the vigers.

At that, the others turned to look at the dead Demon Wolves, finding it a waste as well.
Ali knew that the carcasses would fetch a good price, but they were all injured at the moment. There
was no way they could take these carcasses with them. Furthermore, the Demon Wolves that left might
return any time, so they did not have the luxury of time to retrieve the beast cores.
“Let''s not. Survival is our priority. If we all die here, all these carcasses will ultimately be useless to us.
Let''s go now,” Ali answered in a booming voice.
Hearing that, the others could only cast a reluctant nce at the dead wolves before turning to leave.
Just then, Percy said to Ali, “Ali, Jared has a Storage Ring. He''ll be able to take these carcasses along
with us.”
“Storage Ring?” Ali tensed up before turning to look at Jared. “You have a Storage Ring?”
Jared nodded in affirmation. “I do.”
For a moment, Ali could only stare at Jared in disbelief. He never expected Jared to have a magical
item like a Storage Ring. In the Ethereal Realm, magical items like a Storage Ring were a rare find.
“I didn''t think you''d have something like that. Would you mind taking these carcasses along?” Ali
queried.
“Sure.” With a smile, Jared waved his hand, keeping all the Demon Wolves in his Storage Ring in the
blink of an eye.
The others whipped their heads toward Jared in tion when they saw that the carcasses were gone.
Their impressions of Jared were shifting bit by bit.
At the end of the day, Jared was an outsider. Although he had been staying in Rock Vige for days,
many of the vigers were still hostile toward him.
However, most of them were now grateful that Jared was willing to store the carcasses of the Demon
Wolves in his Storage Ring and transport it for them.
“All right. Let''s head off now.”
Ali then began leading the people back the way they came from.
When Jared noticed that Emily was injured, he asked in concern, “Emily, are you okay? Can you still
walk?”
“I''m fine, Jared. I can still walk,” Emily replied with a shake of her head.
The people of Ali''s group were hurt, so they were slow in their journey. Right then, someone began
sighing andmenting about their situation.
“Although we''ve escaped death this time and obtained so many Demon Wolf carcasses, I''m afraid we
won''t have enough money to treat all of our injuries even if we sell these off.”
The mention of that brought down the previously-merry mood again.
“Those alchemists are so greedy! Their pills are so darn expensive.”
“I''d rather not visit one. At most, I''ll have to suffer for a few more days. The injuries will eventually
recover on their own,” chimed in the elderly viger.
“Hey, don''t say that. It''s easy for open wounds to be infected, especially wounds caused by demon
beasts. Have you forgotten how my eldest uncle passed away from a demon beast bite because he
didn''t want to spend any money to treat his wound?” Percy said to the elderly viger.
