Chapter 123 - The Treasure Vault (1/2)

It took the group a very long time before they were able to recover some energy and since one can't tell how long they have spent inside the ruin, things were becoming really hard for them. After recovering enough they came together as they went to look at the pit where Jason was recuperating only to discover the place was still quiet and left with no choice, Adam had to scream out.

”Hey Jason what are you still doing down there”.

”Cant you tell that I am still trying to recover my energy or has the fight earlier made you lose it” reply Jason from the pit.

”I guess he is back to being stupid since there is no longer any damage” said Steven.

”I think we will have to settle our differences once we are out of here” replied Jason.

”Who would want to fight with a freak like you” said Steven as he left the pit.

”Look Jason, we have a really important matter to talk about and now is the best time so we are waiting for you to come out” commented Adam before taking a step back.

”You really need to listen to what they have to say since he claims it is important” said the bracelet.

”They should be worried about how to recover their energy but here they are thinking about other things, what if there is another possessed in this place how are they going to protect themselves against it” replied Jason.

”I don't think there will be any problem for now and if there will be any, I would have scent it by now” said the bracelet.

Letting out a deep breath, Jason climbed out of the pit, and seeing that he was out, Austin went to meet up with him.

”I see that you have recovered a lot while you are there” said Austin after feeling the aura around him.

”Yeah, so what is it that you guys want to talk about so badly that you needed my present for” asked Jason with a frown on his face.

”Well, you will have to sit down since I am not in a good position to speak in the first place” replied Austin as he sat down.

Doing as he was told to, Jason waited for the others and that is when he noticed Steven looking at him and left with no choice, he had to make a funny face at him before he could look away. It didn't take long before the others were gathered and that is when Adam stood up as he looked around before speaking.

”You all know that we have been in this ruin for a very long time and still haven't come across any treasure during our time here but we have lost a lot of our friends while we are here, I heard from Diana that there is a place not far from here that is filled with treasures of all kinds but the problem here is that these treasures are filled with trap although we are not sure if they are all filled with trap yet but according to her, there is a trap that is put in place”.

”So what do you suggest we do now because if you asked me I will say let's go since we don't have anything to do now” asked Trace.

”Well that is what I plan to do from the start but I called this meeting to make something clear and that is there will be no fighting when one finds something precious” replies Adam.

”Since you have said it all, I hope you won't go back on your word and attack someone like me who has no family behind him” commented Jason.

”That is why we are holding this meeting Jason, no one is going to force you to drop what you pick. It's your luck if you find something good” replied Adam as he let out a sigh after answering Jason since he knows where he is getting at.

”Alright since we have cleared that up, I hope none of you will come after my treasure cause I don't mind giving you what is worse than treasure” said Jason with a smile as he stood up.

They couldn't help but frown when they heard him speak but they still chose to ignore him as they began to leave the room with Diana leading the way. After walking for some time, they were able to arrive at the room that was filled with all kinds of treasure and the group couldn't have an awed look on their face as they arrived.

”Now remember guys, you have to be careful with all these treasures, they might look good in the eyes but once you pick it up, you might trigger a trap and I can give testimony to that with this burn scar on my face” advised Diana.

The group still didn't bother with the consequences since they have finally located where all the treasures are being kept, who cares about hidden treasure when they can finally take what they need.
