Chapter 370: An Unusual Condition (2/2)

Letting out a sigh, which slightly surprised the two, Helios then looked at Argentum as his prideful aura soon enveloped him once more. ”Alright, this magnanimous being right here shall accept your offer of becoming the benefactor of your lowly Verdant Breeze Town…”

”…but on one condition.”

”What would that condition be, Sir Helios? If it is something that this lowly self can achieve, then I would not hesitate to give it my all to fulfill your conditions,” Argentum hastily said, delightful at the fact that Verdant Breeze Town now had one more benefactor that would help out.

Hearing Argentum's eagerness to fulfill his conditions, Helios could not help but have a light smirk on his face as he turned around and gestured towards the two to follow him. Noticing this actions, both Rosalia and Argentum looked at each other for a bit with a hint of shock as they did not expect that the cranky Helios from before would actually invite them inside his inheritance.

Nevertheless, they knew very well to not delay him thanks to his personality, hastily following behind him as the three of them disappeared from the entrance of Heaven's Gust Inheritance soon after.

…

Whoosh!

A few seconds later, the three of them had appeared in the middle of what seemed to be an incredibly long corridor. With the inheritance being related to Wind, motifs that were of green color could be seen on the walls from time to time, though most of these motifs were covered by the various mediums that showed Helios's figure to those that passed through this corridor.

Just like what Felix told him, by the time Rosalia and he entered the inheritance proper, he was instantly greeted by the sight of multiple statues, busts, as well as paintings that allowed people to view Helios from various perspectives. Not only that, but Helios's face could even be seen on the floor they were standing on, taking on the form of carpets that extended to both ends of the long corridor they were in.

Seeing as to how Argentum was looking at his surroundings with surprise, a slightly proud expression could not help but appear on Helios's face as he said, ”Beautiful, right? Unfortunately, this magnanimous being will not let you look at this divine figure for long as we have to head somewhere else in the inheritance.”

After that, a large amount of Wind energy particles started to condense around Helios before heading towards Rosalia and Argentum, wrapping them in what looked like a cocoon made out of Wind energy particles.

Making sure that the two of them were comfortable, Helios then gathered a small mass of Wind energy particles before stepping on it like a magic carpet as he then warned them, ”This quick trip of ours might be…slightly nauseating.”

Whoosh!

With his great mastery over the element of Wind, the three of them soon zoomed through the corridor at breakneck speeds, turning the various statues and whatnot scattered across the sides of the corridor to turn into a blur as both Rosalia and Argentum focused their sights at the very end of the corridor.

At first, they were only barely able to make out the silhouette of an entrance. Though, a few seconds later, this entrance soon expanded greatly in size, even turning out to be far larger than the corridor as the insides of the room connected to the corridor could be seen.

Eventually, the three of them had stopped just by the entrance of this large room, with Helios removing the cocoon of Wind energy particles that enveloped both Rosalia and Argentum. By the time they dropped down, the two of them could not help but feel a bit dizzy, though it did not take long for them to return to their normal selves by circulating the energy inside their body.

After that, they redirected their gazes towards the large room, wondering what the three of them would do inside a room that was empty. Fortunately, it did not take long for the two of them to find out what they were about to do here as Helios looked at Argentum and said, ”Argentum, heed this divine being's words and head towards the center of this room in front of us.”

”Can I ask the great Tempest King to tell me the reason behind such an order?” Argentum soon asked, though he did have a few ideas as to why Helios would have him do such a thing.

With a faint chuckle, Helios then told him, ”This is the one condition I need you to fulfill before I shall become the benefactor of your Verdant Breeze Town. The condition that I have given for you to fulfill is to…”

”…go through my trials.”
