Chapter 240
The morning sun"s rays pierced through everything, finding their way into Ed"s eyes . The uncomfortable feeling of light continued to swell inside of him until he gave up and opened the covers on his eyes . He only spent one night in the beach, yet he felt like an eternity had pa.s.sed as he slept .
Ed didn"t need to do much in order to wake up his comrades . He released a gentle wave of Ki that rushed all over the place, enveloping its targets in a warm embrace . The Ki quickly did its magic, as the other ten companions opened their eyes in succession . With their high cultivation, they didn"t suffer any drowsiness and instead were ready for anything .
"Morning everyone . We"re leaving in half an hour, so if you need to take care of something, do it now," Ed said as he walked over to face the beach . Since he could immediately change his clothes, he didn"t need to waste time . Thus, he waited by the calm sea water .
"We"re ready . " Ed, whose eyes were closed, turned around as he looked at his companions . Not even ten minutes had pa.s.sed before they appeared behind him . Raikou, Suika, and Agumon didn"t really need to change their clothes, but simply hung around the others, giving Ed some room . As for Emilia and Bella, they were wearing a red and a white robe . Emilia"s natural blush was enhanced by her crimson robe, giving her a mature charm, while Bella"s robe represented her purity .
"Mehen, we"re going to bother you while we"re on this continent . " Ed patted the head of Mehen who hung around Garu"s head . Mehen nodded his head while descending . His size kept increasing until he reached his maximum potential . Ed and the others got on his head while the dimension around them started to crumble into minuscule pieces of jade gla.s.s .
"Let"s go . " Mehen moved at his greatest speed as soon as Ed gave the order . Although he was moving at an incredible speed, with his gargantuan body, he caused minimal damage to the surroundings . From an untrained point of view, it would seem as if he was simply an illusion . But, for those with a decent level of strength, they would be able to notice how his body was slightly levitating .
Ed crossed his legs as he sat down on Mehen"s gigantic head . He closed off all his senses, focusing only on his sight which was set on his Map . His plan was to monitor the dots on his Map, and he would stop anytime a green dot came up . He knew his plan was rather inconvenient, but it was the best he got . The only ray of hope he had, was Arthur"s information, confirming his Grandfather"s existence in this continent . As well as the fact that this was his first time coming to this specific continent .
The latter meant that no matter what, the amount of green dots would be quite limited . Meaning that the chances for his grandfather to be among them were high . Alas, this also meant that he would encounter more red and blue dots compared to green dots .
Compared to Ed, his companions enjoyed the trip . The air didn"t bother them much since Ed made sure to block the incoming air with his Telekinesis threads . Of course, even if he didn"t do such a thing, they would be able to handle it, since they were used to such air pressure from flying .
Due to the size of the continent, Ed knew that they would need at least four days of nonstop searching in order to cover it all . Their missions had only just begun .

Three days pa.s.sed with Ed pa.s.sing next to the populated areas of the continent . During these three days, many kingdoms declared a high degree of danger due to the sightings of Mehen . Of course, none of them dared to make the first move . They knew the danger of angering such a being, so they let him move away . They only planned to move if Mehen targeted them, which, of course, wasn"t Ed"s objective .
"E . . a . d…Edward . Edward!" Ed snapped out of his daze as he heard a voice keep calling to him .
"E . . a . d…Edward . Edward!" Ed snapped out of his daze as he heard a voice keep calling to him .
"What is it?" he answered without even confirming whose voice it was . He knew that he could figure out the owner of the voice after hearing it once more .
"You haven"t had anything to eat or drink . Maybe it"s time to take a rest . Mehen should also be getting tired . " Emilia"s gentle voice simulated Ed"s ears which were deactivated for the past three days .
"Hmm…Maybe you"re right . " Ed knew that Mehen wasn"t tried . He, in order to wait for Ed, fought for one year straight with an even lower cultivation . He wouldn"t get tired after only three days . But still, he chose to take Emilia"s advice and stop for a couple of hours . He didn"t have much ground to cover after all .
"Still, you guys are horrible aren"t you? Cooking on someone"s head . And not even giving me some of it!" Mehen voiced his displeasure as he grew smaller in size .
"We"re sorry Mehen, we didn"t want to interrupt you and Ed when you were concentrating so hard . " Emilia apologized as she stood in front of the small Mehen .
"Alright you"re forgiven," Mehen hissed as he rested on Ed"s shoulders .

"Alright you"re forgiven," Mehen hissed as he rested on Ed"s shoulders .
"You guys cooked while we were working…" Ed voiced his displeasure as he looked at his companions . Each one of them avoided his gaze by turning to the side, and whistled to declare their guilt…Innocence .
Ed let out a sigh as he said, "I"ll cook something for us, so wait for a little . " He didn"t activate his dimension and instead started to cook with some of the utensils he had ready . This, however, didn"t mean that the meal tasted any worse . Ed"s cooking skill made anything taste good .
The group didn"t waste any time and ate rather quickly . They knew that they hard pressed for time . Still, albeit short, this break served as a much-needed refreshment for Ed and Mehen . The two of them resumed their stances and darted off in the distance on Mehen"s head .
A little less than half an hour pa.s.sed before Ed noticed a green dot on the corner of his Map . His eyes opened wide as he thought, "It"s a hit!"The morning suns rays pierced through everything, finding their way into Eds eyes .
