Chapter 423 Exit the Cave.
Bottomless Gap.
Moments after Lyon finished setting up all his skills, now he has got the result. He rushed to Vince's location, followed him. Not long after, the two of them finally met. Lyon also continued his talk about previous remarks about strange things he felt. Vince gave a report that there was nothing strange about this cave. Everything felt ordinary to him. Lyon also began to look around if it might be his feelings during fainting. Vince only justified Lyon's remarks because he believed him.
So, after that, the two of them continued to mine this cave until they got the results. There's about 15 minutes they spend in there, mining every crystal there is. Inside the Lyon bag were already nearly a hundred crystal materials. He felt that this would be enough for him. If later, the results obtained by this Crystal had a positive impact on him, then he would continue to continue his plan, and conjure this cave into his mines.
“Huff, I think this is enough to sample. Now I expect a lot from you. Hope you guys can be money to me.” Then Lyon glanced at Vince who was not far from him. “Sure lord Vince has also collected quite a lot.” Lyon came to him and called him. “Mr Vincle, looks like we've mined enough. Let's get back out. They're all definitely waiting for us.”
Vince stopped mining the crystal, and looked at Lyon. “Oh, so be it. All right, let's just go.”
Lyon and Vince hurried back to where they had originally entered, heading out of the cave. It is time for them to come back. Surely everyone out there's been waiting for them for a long time.
**
After travelling less than 50 meters away, Lyon began to see a speck of light from the end of the cave. They keep walking there. The light grew bigger and brighter until they were there. The scene changed immediately. There were so many people standing looking at the two of them. Lyon and Vincle are outside the cave.
“Ah, are they back?!”
“Lyon has returned, everyone look there!”
“Leader has returned!!”
“Iya, Leader is back.”
“Leader, Leader, how is it in there? Have you found the Monument.”
“Yes, that's right! Have you found the Monument. We want to see it too.”
“Wait, wait, wait, I also want to ask this to Leader!”
“Hey you! Don't cram. Line up regularly!”
The atmosphere instantly became very noisy due to the appearance of Lyon. Surely they were all very curious about the Monument which made the rule of thousands of people having to go look for it. This must be something that should not be missed. They hope that they can see if it is true that the monument is in the cave. On the other hand, Lyon became overwhelmed in the face of a human wave ready to drown him. Though he had just come out of the cave with an achy body after mining the crystal, suddenly confronted by something as terrible as this.
“All of you, relax .. talk one by one!” Lyon shouted to them to make the atmosphere there again conducive so that he could convey all their questions. But it feels like it was in vain. His voice could not match the thousands of voices cast by these players. Lyon is getting desperate. But, in the midst of the riot, he saw Ardes who was still in his monster mode, standing not far from this horde of players. Lyon had an idea. He called Ardes. “Mr Ardes, hurry here and save me!!”
The government's vote has been given. Ardes who heard that swiftly stood up from his place, then walked towards those players. The players automatically move away as soon as they know that Ardes will pass in their lane. Finally, Ardes was already in front of Lyon. He immediately spread his hands as wide as possible, and said, “You all stay away! Make room for Mr Lyon.” It made everyone simultaneously step back, making room for them. Lyon are a little relieved if the idea turns out to be successful. Lyon also thanked Ardes, “Thank you, Mr. Ardes.” The speech was replied with a smile and a nod that he had received the greeting ‘thank you’ from Lyon.
Then not for long, came some people who were shown not unfamiliar to Lyon. They are Ruby and friends. Apparently all the players and NPCs had gathered here, visible from all the representatives of the people he knew had been in one place.
Ruby went running to Lyon, then asked spontaneously, “Kak, sis, sis ...! How's it in there? Did you find the monument?? And also has big brother defeated the monsters that are in there??”
Lyon stared in surprise at Ruby when he heard the remark about defeating the monster. He never drew his sword to defeat the monsters in the cave, especially in the cave there were no monsters. “Ee ... Ruby, didn't I hear wrong? What does it mean to beat monsters?” tanyakanya.
“Iya it's true,” Ruby said with her plain face. He's not lying. “Not that was the intent of the message that brother sent us not to enter that cave because there was a problem there. It must be that the matter is related to monsters, am I right??”
“Order?” Lyon is a bit confused. But it wasn't long. In just a few seconds he recalled the message he had sent some time ago, when he found the location of the crystal and the drink, he had sent a message to the two of them to tell the players not to enter the cave because there was a strong monster in the cave. Well, that's actually his wits. “That monster I beat. Well, it's true that monsters are very powerful. If we had brought a lot of people to get in there, there would have been many casualties. Luckily my decision was the right one.” Lyon continued his reasoning by making a play to them.
But, Vince who heard their talk, also began to feel something strange, especially with the words of Lyon for not connecting with their events. “Mr Lyon, instead of in there we just limited to finding a tam-!” However, Lyon quickly stuffed Vince's mouth with his hands. Afterwards, he said, “Mr Vincle, you don't need to talk more, just listen and follow the flow.” With a pretty frantic face and cold sweat appearing on his forehead.
Lyon are panicking at the moment. Huf .. That's almost. Why didn't I realize Vince was here. Hopefully they don't suspect his words .... Then, Lyon turned towards the two of them. When he looked, Ruby and Snowly seemed confused and looked unsuspecting at Vince's words. Lyon can be a little relieved.
Not long after, Snowly who was there, started walking forward and approached Lyon. “Lyon, I feel you have changed for the better. It has begun to care about others, to the point of not wanting to get others involved with your problems and you who bear them. I'm so happy to see that change.” What a beautiful word that is actually addressed.
Heh .. I think I'm overreacting. And did I really feel that universal to the point that Snowly thought I had turned out to be good. I never did anything bad, he thought confused. Lyon was actually unaware of the crimes he had made. But Lyon immediately stopped thinking about it and ended their talks.
“Well, yeah, Never mind. Now everything is clear. You guys understand, right?”
“Hm, hm!”
Then after that, the other people who were joining Ruby were already in front of Lyon. They are Armegon, Silvana, Liseas, Gordon, Heraces, DeathNight, and Viergo.
Lyon nodded, then replied, “Iya, The monument is indeed inside there.”
“Oh yeah!” Armegon again asked, “Are you able to see the Monument? We are curious about the Monument you are looking for?”
Armegon was curious about the Monument they were looking for. It's good if they also want to see how the shape of the Monument is in order to quench their thirst. But, not yet they have to ask permission to see it from the person concerned, namely Lyon. On the other hand, Lyon put on his ugly face. He already knew that moment was coming. If only they had entered into this cave and seen the crystal emblem that was near the Monument, they would have definitely tried to seize it. This can't be allowed. The mine should be his. He had to find another reason so they couldn't get in there.
“Hmm, how well. There's still something from the Monument to investigate. So, I had to close this place down first and forbid outsiders from entering. But, take it easy, later after everything has settled down, I will bring you in and show you to the Monument.”
“Hehh, so well ... Though I want to see it.” Armegon was disappointed with Lyon's reply. But, quickly the disappointment turned to spirit. Armegon immediately held both shoulders of Lyon firmly. “Then, you promise to take us in there?”
Lyon turned his face away from Armegon and said, “Iya, yes, yes ... I promise ...” He did not know until later when he would finish taking care of the mine.
Gordon came and grabbed Armegon. “Mr Armegon, relax. One day we will see the monument. Well, I'm also curious about the Monument, but what's okay to make, Mr. Lyon who made the decision because it's his right.”
Then Heraces came and Liseas began to speak.
“It looks like our task has been completed completely. We can go back to the kingdom and tell about our victory here,” said Heraces who then looked at everyone here.
Liseas asked, “Will the kingdom throw a banquet in a big way to celebrate this victory??”
“Hmm, I think so. It was incumbent upon the kingdom to make a banquet when it made it through difficult things. But, why are you asking that, Liseas??”
“It's okay, it's just that such a party hasn't happened in a long time. Means, this will be a big party after a long time of silence hit the kingdom.”
“Yeah, you were right too ..”
So, after all that was done, Lyon immediately went up the Ardes, followed by three great generals who also went with him. Before long, they stood on Ardes' head. Lyon saw an eye looking, players and NPCs scattered everywhere, as well as the rest of them. Heraces walked past them all at once the others. Heraces took a breath. For a moment, he opened his mouth and began to say,
“To all the warriors of the kingdom of Heaven and the adventures that are here, today we have won the war against the newly resurrected Lich and his followers. For five whole days we fought with all our might, sacrificing our lives to protect our beloved kingdom. That effort has paid off with the victory we have achieved at this point. Now, the kingdom of Heaven would be a peaceful kingdom, with no more things threatening this kingdom. And hopefully, the spirits of the prajjtiru and adventurers who died in the war and those who have faced the Lich in the past, can be calm in nature there. Now, let's return with our pride, broadcast this victory to everyone!”
““Oo!!””
A passionate cry was echoed by all the people on the plains. The sound filled the whole place. Before they left to return to the kingdom of Heaven, Heraces wanted to give some speeches to end this day. At that time they had talked that Lyon should give the speech because he is the hero who has won this war. Lyon rejected him outright. Lyon would not give such a speech because of his laziness. So he proposed that Heraces who gave a speech as he was the highest ranking of the three generals. In the end, the speech was over, and of course the flames continued to rage there, and after that, they immediately continued their journey out of the southern region of Bottomless Gap, he said, and immediately go back to the kingdom of Heaven.
At night, thousands of stars shone brightly in the skies of the Bottomless Gap, midway through their journey towards the Kingdom of Heaven, Lyon which was currently on Ardes' back, again monitoring his display panel. It was a panel containing his class Quest that he would be working on. “Hm, because the Quest to investigate this place is done. Ah, what a very long Quest, very different from the first Quest which is quite short. Now, only Quest remains to investigate the king and queen of Heaven.” For a moment, Lyon thought of something. “Eh, wait ... why do I try to investigate the two of them??
As it did not cross his brain about the Heaven king and queen and there was no hint of their weirdness, it left him perplexed. He had just thought about this because he was too focused on the other two Quests. “Do I have to go back and forth into the palace just to search for that Quest? Heh, this will be troublesome ...” The residence of the king and queen was a palace which meant that she had to turn back and forth to the palace to meet them.
Lyon remembered the badge Isabella had given him. “I have the badge that Isabella gave me, so I can easily get in and out of the palace, but still it's troublesome ..” Well, even though he has found the ease, but still it will trouble him. It is the nature of Lyon like this.
But, Lyon did not know if something had already greeted him, he did not realize if one of the worst events would befall him soon.
