Chapter 327 - The Last piece (1/2)
When Ray accepted the system message, as usual, like all the doors before it. The circular lock started turning and churning away until eventually a clicking sound was heard. Then the two metal doors began to pull apart, and the room was reviled.
”You are just full of surprises,” said Mia. ”And I have a feeling that we only know a little part of it, if Betty was here, she would be asking you all sorts of questions.”
The others were unsure about what Ray exactly had done, which was so impressive. They had never seen a door like this one before. But every time Ray had gone to see the divine being, a door like this was blocking their path. The door was almost unbreakable, even for Ray.
The only known way to open the door was by inputting the code that the creators had set when it was being made.
The room would have been dark inside if it weren't for a single light source in the centre. It was round in shape and on the sides were several desks with books and magical tools laid out. There were even some beast crystals that looked quite expensive out on the table.
But what everyone's eyes were attracted to one thing, it was the big glowing crystal in the centre of the room which lit up the whole place.
”Careful,” Mia said as she saw Ray take a step forward. ”Betty might have set up alarms in case anyone came through the door.”
With Ray's dragon eyes skill, he could see if there were any residue of magic left over. Now he had gone past the steel door his Dragon eyes skill was working back to normal again inside the room.
”Don't worry, it's safe.” Ray walked over with Mia and the other two following closely behind.
”I'm here now, what do you want!” Ray said bluntly.
The others couldn't believe it, right now they were really setting their eyes on a god, but Ray talked to it as if this was a tiresome task.
”I see you have brought some guests with you this time.” The Divine being replied. ”And it looks like you did not do the task that I asked for.”
”I still don't trust you 100 percent. I'm here now, and you said you would tell me everything you know.”
”Very well.” The Divine being replied. ”Place your hand on top of the crystal, this way, I shall see what has happened since the last time we have met.”
Ray didn't like following the Divine being's orders, but it was clear that it wasn't trying to kill him. The crystal was a powerful thing. Even though it was separated into three different pieces, Ray could see it contained more power than him.
Yet not once did it try to harm him.
As he placed his hand on the crystal, a part of him felt like it was leaving his body. It pulled and pulled but unlike the last times where Ray would resist, this time he didn't. A part of him floated out of his body and was taken into the crystal.
