Chapter 560 - The Deity In The Crystal Cage
As the last bit of ent down his throat, Daniel closed his eyes, and let hisas happening to his physical body
-----
When Daniel opened his eyes again, so onto a stone bed Around hiular stones embedded into their surface In the place of the fourth wall, was a grille of flat and rusty iron bars that went fro to floor and fro him to see past, and into a dark corridor with an identical room on the other side
This was not the first time Daniel had been taken prisoner, and despite this world being the furthest away he had ever been froeon, when he saw one-The room he was in, was a prison cell
This cell was poorly illu a small candle placed on top of a rustic wooden table, and a square-shaped opening in the wall opposite to the grille, right above the bed Fro that dusk had long passed, and that it was now late in the night Yet, the al of swords implied that it was still not too late to interrupt the activities whose noises Daniel had heard ever since arriving at the estate
Clearly unbothered by the sudden predicaan to look around He approached the iron bars, and as his body came in contact with theh the hiht corridor that led into at least nine ht that seeped through its chinks, was a door at the very end of this corridor
”Go rest, you useless scuorous voice as the door at the end of the corridor flung open-Behind it, a line of at nine exhausted men, all dressed in a piece of loincloth held in place by a leather belt, and a pair of si their bruised and sweaty bodies
”This is insanity” Muttered the first in line as he stuh the door ”How can we survive this?”
The second man, taller and quite calmer, walked past the first man and directly into his cell, the second one to the left ”Save your breath for to, you'll need it” He said as snuffed the candle's flaers and sat onto his bed What folloere the whispered cries and complaints of a few of these men, all hurt and upset about the treat that day
The fuss only stopped once one of the h the corridor and noticed Daniel, as standing in his cell, and peering through the hole in the wall, where a patch of dark sky and a bright full
”There is new blood” Said the man who first noticed Daniel A blonde short-haired man with a tall and muscular frame, bronze skin, and brown eyes His thin lips were pressed together, showing the last re that was directly opposed to that shown by his tired and dispirited eyes
Daniel's existence did not appear to be a surprise for them, as many of them had been there for weeks now, and had never seen a cell remain empty for more than a few days What they called ”new blood,” which to the co the session started
Unfortunately, Daniel had arrived too late in the evening to join in the training
The men were too tired to bother with the new arrival, so they reserved the last bit of energy they had left to co after they entered the dungeon, the sound of locks clicking resounded fro that they were now locked inside Following this ominous sound, one by one the candles present in each cell were snuffed out, and the men went to sleep
As Daniel sat on his bed to an to summarize what he had learned about the kar
What he had learned was that karmic poas created purely by the actions of an individual It did not ative or positive karma, to him as the aspect of Karma, or to the creation of the power itself, it olden essence would linger on and around the body of the person it had originated fro them The only person ould perceive its existence was Daniel, who could feel this unique essence nurture his powers as an aspect of existence at the saether to for Daniel himself
Another important piece of information Daniel had learned about this poas that interfering with it would create a chain reaction that would stop its production indefinitely
He had learned this by offering a coin to a beggar, which he had then used to purchase a jar of wine Thethe man a jar of ould not be beneficial to the known drunkard, decided to put his business above thethis, the merchant's wife, who already harbored hatred towards the reed, accepted the courtshi+p of one of her suitors, athat she was already married
As Daniel observed this chain of events, he realized that while each of these decisions should have produced karar, the merchant, or the two adulterers, none was actually created From this, Daniel could infer that while he couldn't control it yet, the power of Karnized his existence, andthem above the power itself
For this reason, Daniel had decided that, unless he illing to break the nors of this power, he would not interfere, and would instead spend his time in this world as an observer
