Chapter 245: Not Ready To Die Yet (1/2)

But just as Lawrend was relaxing in relief. The ring suddenly stopped glowing. The light covering his body also disappeared.

”W-What? Is this thing broken?”

Lawrend stared at the ring in disbelief.

”What do we do now!?” Daisy exclaimed in panic.

”Relax, Daisy! If you panic first, how can I calm down??” Lawrend said to her in rebuke.

”...”

Daisy went silent.

”I'm sorry,” Daisy said.

”This is definitely not a coincidence. Someone is watching us.”

The exit wouldn't close so suddenly when he was about to exit if no one was watching them. Only a rational thinking being would do that.

”It should be West. That traitorous bastard! He definitely wants to kill me!” Daisy replied in anger.

She had already vowed to kill him the moment she was killed under his hands. But he wasn't able to extinguish her soul. He was only capable of splitting them into multiple pieces as she can easily recover if she has her full soul.

”I'll proceed carefully. Tell me if you feel that something is wrong,” Lawrend said.

”Okay,” Daisy replied.

And so, Lawrend waited in silence. The sunlight slowly fell on top of the pedestal.

Once it was at the very center, the pedestal rose. A small chamber leading down appeared.

”This… It's still working after so long?”

Lawrend was impressed. Whoever made this deserves praise. Considering that the Undrasil Kingdom was founded 10,000 years ago, that meant that this temple existed for more than 10,000 years.

Every day, it would always open the same pedestal. A normal mechanism would have already broken from the number of uses.

Lawrend walked towards the chamber and walked down the flight of stairs. It was very dark, but with the lightning ball, Lawrend was able to see the steps.

He walked down for about a minute before reaching the end. It was a long hallway.

There was a long line of realistic statues on the side. They were all beautiful women and handsome men, and they gave off valiant auras like heroes.

”Do you know who they are?” Lawrend asked.

”I don't know them,” Daisy replied.

Her memories weren't complete enough for her to recognize them.

”Alright.”

Lawrend walked through the hallway and nothing happened. It was oddly normal for his comfort.

At the end, there was a huge door. It was covered with writing that went around in a circular ring. In total, there were three rings with writing on them. One was an outer ring, middle ring, and an inner ring.

”Can you understand this?” Lawrend asked.

”I do. Each symbol means a single word. Can you pull me out of your pocket? I can't sense them that clearly,” Daisy said.

Lawrend pulled her out of his pocket and opened his palm. Her soul shard floated in the air and hovered in front of the door.

”So far, there hadn't been any danger. This is really creepy,” Lawrend muttered.

According to the Venerated White Roc, many had failed, and their companions died. But what could the reason for their failures be?
