305 Enigma (1/2)
Tak Tak Tak
The sound of loud footsteps resounded through a hall. The hall was luxurious yet unique. The uniqueness was about the bone frame which could be seen as the trim on the hall. There were forty chairs on both side made of gold, but again, the bone as the frame of the chair.
Twenty chairs on the left and twenty chairs on the right. Behind each of the chair, there was a statue made of gold. There was no bone frame on the statue, but the statue itself was a skeleton.
Not only a golden statue, on the top of the golden statue, but there was also a huge flag. A black huge flag about five meters width and there was an unknown golden word on each flag. Each word was different from the others and there were forty flags in the hall.
However, among the forty statues. Ten statues had their head destroyed and there was a hole with twenty centimeters in diameter hole in the left chest.
In the middle of the seats, there was a golden carpet. From the entrance of the hall to the end of the hall which led to the main seat, to the throne. The throne made of gold, but the gold was different with the gold on the forty seats.
The forty seats were made of pure gold, but the throne made of from gold from the Mythical Grade Skeleton. If Randy was here, he would recognize that of course. It was the frame from the Mythical Grade Skeleton; the throne made of Mythical Grade Skeleton's frame.
Behind the throne, there was another statue. The statue was much bigger compared the other statue; it was about twenty meters high, two times taller than the other forty statues. The same as the throne, the statue was made of the Mythical Grade Skeleton's frame.
There was another a black flag on the top of the statue. The flag also two times bigger than the other flags and there was no word on the flag, but an image. The image was an eye, an made of flame, and the image was vivid like real eyes. The dark crimson color as the pupil and a golden flame on the top of the eye.
The spacious and luxurious hall was quiet. However, there was a ”tak tak” sound broke the quiet atmosphere. There was someone covered in the black cloak from the head to the toe walked, heading toward the throne.
Even though the man in the black cloak was walking on the top carpet, the ”tak tak” sound resounded from him. Arriving five meters away from the throne, the man on the black cloak knelt down until his head reached on the ground.
The man in the black cloak knocked his head three times despite there was no one sitting on the throne. Yes, there was no one sitting on the throne, but the man in the black cloak still knelt down.
Afterward, the man in the black cloak stood up and walked up to the throne. He passed the throne and surprisingly, behind the twenty meters tall statue was not a wall, but there was a black curtain right behind the throne.
Apparently, the man in the black cloak was familiar with the hall. He passed through the black curtain directly. There was another room behind the throne.
The room was quite big, about twenty fours meters long and twelve meters wide. At the end of room, there was a big bowl made of gold. Yes, there was a big bowl, ten meters tall and ten meters in diameter.
There was a stair leading to the ten meters and on the top of the stair, there was a man stood straight as he looked down to the bowl. The person who stood on the top stair was also wearing a cloak but in the different color. It was a black gold cloak, covering the person from the head to the toe.
The person in the black gold cloak was looking down at the bowl, the bowl filled with bones. Yes, there were many frames inside the bowl, from the humanoid frame to a frame with four feet. There were many kinds of the frame inside the bowl.
Soon, the man in the black cloak arrived right under the stair. He immediately knelt down again, but the man in the black didn't have his head knocked on the ground like before. He just knelt down with one foot and greeted with a hoarse voice.
”My Lord, the supply from Forlin, Romina, and Moira has arrived!” The man in the black cloak reported as he knelt down.
There was no response came out from the man black gold cloak. Silent invaded the room once again after the hoarse voice.
It took sometime before a gentle and a masculine voice came out from the man in the black gold cloak.
”Hmm,” The man in the black gold nodded his head before continuing with a question, ”What about Barton? Is there still no news from your subordinates?”
”My subordinates have come back just now. They told me Barton Legion was over and it was the same human's force who had destroyed Kururi's Legion,” The man in the black cloak answered.
”My Lord, please send us as a reinforcement to Forlin. If this keeps going, it's just a matter of time before the other legions get annihilated. The nearest to that human's force is Forlin Legion. Please send a reinforcement to Forlin place,”
The man in the black cloak pleaded. It was clear from his voice, there was a trace of worry and anxiety in his voice.
However, the man in the black gold cloak gave a silent as a response. The room became quiet again. It took a few moments and the man in the black cloak heard a sigh from the man in the black gold cloak.
