After he researched for a while, he found a place that seemed to be a keyhole.This keyhole was on the door that he saw and was covered by vines. the shape was a bit strange but he was sure it was the keyhole.
"But how do I find the key? I've gone around and searched every corner of this temple but found nothing, have I lost the key or destroyed by the ingestion of age, so I didn't meet?."Ares breathed a heavy sigh.
indeed, he has circled all parts of this temple and searched all corners of this temple, but this temple seems to be designed to only have one entrance and one exit. and again Ares hardly found any clue about the key, want from paintings, ornaments and writings that exist throughout the temple.
Ares let out a heavy sigh"if Damon was here, maybe things would be better, maybe?."Ares rubbed the door in front of him.
he said that because Damon has a skill that can make him hide in any object, he can move places easily as long as the object has a shadow.
Ares woke up from his despair, walked a little bit to the edge and then looked down, in a tree more precisely under a tree that was quite far from here, there was a Shadow General who was holding the two babies. the two babies were seen sound asleep in her arms.
The Shadow general had actually received an order from him, to come here but Ares did not allow him to get too close to this temple, because he did not want the two children to be okay, why, moreover, babies who hatch from eggs that are in the world tree palace.
Ares let out a long sigh and then stood back in front of the door, he let out a long sigh"Haaaa...if it is like this then the choice is only one, Dijebol or not at all!."Ares poured Aura into his sword and made the Blood Stone at his edge.
The sword was channeled with Aura, Ares sighed again then put up the horses.he tightly gripped his Sword and gave a few slashes that slashed open the door in front of him, he swung his sword forcefully and quickly without losing any balance at all.
"Ukh! This door's a lot harder than it looks, huh?."His grunts while shaking his sword.
one by one the slashes he threw for the foam cut this door, but this door had an unexpected hardness that made him have to exert extra energy to be able to cut this large stone door. one by one he threw precision slashes and only one more slash so that this door could be cut. Ares tightly gripped his sword and then swung one last slash.
That slash became the last slash to be able to cut through this door and after a few minutes it was not exhausting for him, Ares managed to cut these parts of the door neatly to the point that the door still looks fused.
"Hufff."Ares pushed the door with a little energy, and at once the door collapsed with parts that were cut neatly like tofu.
Guessing dust flew because the parts of the door collapsed, and in one flick of the hand the thick dust disappeared and was replaced with a quite strange sight.
Spear, sword, bow, Helberd, machete, shield, dagger and various other Weapons were neatly displayed with thick dust on each side. there is an altar with several steps on top of which there is a statue.
Ares approached and saw the statue more clearly.if he saw, the statue looks like the people who were drawn that he had seen, he said, a long beard and a not-so-thick moustache with a valiant face, he wore clothes like the Chinese Emperors he had seen in the movies.
his figure holding a spear with a machete-like tip and standing valiantly like he was facing an enemy without fear, made him look like a true emperor.
Ares rubbed his chin looking at the statue"Hmmm.... strange, is it just my imagination? I just saw something like I wanted to get out of that statue."He said while watching the statue.
the statue did look great but ares felt something else inside the statue, it was like a white shadow that wanted to come out of the statue but Ares felt he was wrong to see, because this place is dusty enough that makes him think it might be flying dust.
"That flag looks familiar, I'm sure I've seen this flag before, but where?."Ares ransacked his brain looking for memories related to the flag in front of him.
but when he was focusing on thinking, from the statue came out a creature that has a shape similar to the statue, he saw Ares who was below it and looked at the door that had been cut neatly.
he clenched his hands and his body trembled, ares who gave up on thinking realized the creature and immediately took a safe distance then pulled out his sword.
Ares could barely sense his meaningful presence, the creature in front of him was likely a Ghost, Wraith or perhaps an Undead.
he suddenly widened both his hands grandly then said"Young man! Are you the one who finished the test I made?."His voice was filled with joy and excitement.
Ares did not know what was meant, but if he saw this temple it seemed like it was a place of testing.But Ares did not feel like he had ever completed a test, and again he was still curious about the man in front of him.
Ares gulped and said"See? What exam do you mean? and who are you again?."Ares could not slacken his guard at all.
The man smiled widely and rubbed his beard while looking at Ares then laughed"Hahahha....You must not know the exam I put and immediately finish it without knowing it is a test, right? Hahahahha! hahahahahah.."the laughter echoed there and more importantly, the laughter was very similar to the laughter of the fathers of Posronda.
Ares was quite insured with this laugh, but he still questioned the true identity of the man in front of him"let me rephrase my question just now, who are you really?."Ares' voice this time was filled with pressure.
the man was instantly speechless hearing the stressful question earlier, he looked at Ares while rubbing his chin"Interesting! pull over! let me introduce myself to the truth!."He makes a pose that seems dashing and majestic, but to Ares he looks like a narcissistic old man.
"I am the one who unites many regions, nations, nations in one sign! a ruler with the most vast territory with unrivalled military might! I'm known by many Names and Nicknames but only one of the most famous!."He made strange movements again and again opened both his hands grandly.
"I am Long Yuan! Emperor of Jinlong empire! known as the Celestial Emperor!."He smiled proudly at his nickname.
while Ares was only silent open to hear the identity of the man in front of him, he never expected the man in front of him to be an emperor whose name was known to all Diyggdrassil People.
The man named long yuan looked at the gaping Ares then said"Hmp! it should have been the people who heard my name were instantly scared and respected me! because surely my country is currently a Strong country known by many people."
"That thing, um, actually the Jinlong Empire you founded has collapsed 500 years ago."Ares scratched his head while putting on a stupid face.
"...Eh?."
a pressing atmosphere of silence filled the entire room. Long Yuan there was once unable to digest what he had just received, and ended up silent Thousand languages with Confusion filling his head.
