The Legends Of Creator Hero
Excalibur Smelting

It took nearly half an hour to let Tirith calm down again. Previously, Tirith had just gone through the test of the Spirit Tree, to prove and obtain permission to climb the Spirit Tree. The result can be seen clearly, from the mental burden and fatigue that occurred to Tirith proved that he managed to get through it. Surely the exam was definitely very mentally draining at his disposal and perhaps Tirith had never faced such a thing.

Rigel does not know for sure what Tirith is facing, but the possibility is not much different from the natural one. The test itself seems to focus more on one's mental more than anything. A person's identity will be clearly visible through the mental exam. If they cannot even stand the test, then they do not deserve to go to the highest place. Will they give up when faced with hell? or choose to stop when faced with heaven? or will it even continue to walk even if faced by both?

Everything will be clearly engraved in the test. If they can pass through hell and ignore heaven in the test, as Rigel and Tirith did, then they can reach the top of the Spirit tree. Not only that, they were likely to achieve something much higher than the Spirit tree. Unlike Rigel who had experienced so many mental training events, Tirith was probably very fragile towards this kind of thing and needed time to return to his usual self.

"Are you okay?"

"Yes... Thank you for worrying about me Rigel. And also thank you for helping to restore me, Fairy Queen..." Tirith held her head, perhaps a trace of a headache could still be felt by her.

"Yes, Equally... I was just a little surprised at you who made it through the test in one try. Exactly the same as Hero Rigel."

"If you're okay, I'll carry you and take you to the top, Tirith."

Tirith slowly stood up and looked at Rigel who was by his side, "Alright, I'm fine. Let's go."

Immediately Rigel carried Tirith in his arms and shot into the air to reach the top. Sylph also followed from behind. Tirith stared at Rigel's face as she felt the warmth of her embrace, "Rigel... Did you also go through the test? what kind of things do you see?"

Silence happened for a moment, Rigel did not know what he had to say. Didn't know how he should describe it, and he didn't know if Tirith would understand? the best option is to say something you know for sure. Even by a child.

"Hells... I only see hell, the place I'm going to at the end of my journey."

A word that can describe despair, suffering, torture, and deep sadness. A word that is always feared by humans, but always haunts humans for days of torture.

"That's it..." Tirith seemed to understand, he himself realized that the scene he saw was not heaven as expected, but an unexpected hell.

"From that... You're better off looking around."

Following his words, Tirith looked around. A blue landscape, a blue sky as far as the eye can see. The green land seemed to shrink and shrink further and Spirit birds flew around it. They pierced through the wet white clouds and it was as if Tirith could reach the high heavens. Where the stars live and play.

"Wahh~ is so beautiful..."

The air feels cool at this altitude, but the air will thin the higher they fly. Rigel continued to air towards the top of the Spirit Tree. It would probably be good for Tirith to see the star from its peak, as its peak was much closer to the sky.

They got to the top and got a welcome from the little fairies flying around. No matter how many times Rigel saw it, it was still very soothing to the eyes. Tirith was amazed at the sight. This place was much wider than he expected.

"Come, I need you to meet someone..." Rigel led the way while Sylph remained behind Tirith.

The simple reason for Rigel to bring Tirith to this place was to meet a girl who was in her eternal sleep. There was no particular reason for him to do this. Rigel's personal wish. In addition, Rigel also remembered that Priscilla had once said he wanted to see Tirith.

Sylph added a little more and led the way, she was aware of Rigel's intention to bring Tirith with Priscilla. He doesn't know Rigel's true intentions, but since Rigel has been willing to help him to wake Priscilla back up, he has no right to ask. In addition, Sylph still had an unpaid debt of gratitude to Rigel.

Walking slightly forward, they arrived at a tree with a mattress underneath. There was a beautiful woman who was fast asleep there and had no signs of waking up.

"Was he... Princess sleeping?" Tirith was fascinated by the beautiful girl. It was only natural to think so, the beauty that the girl had was different from the one she had met in her life. Just looking at his sleeping face, it was as if all the fatigue and physical burden he had received during the test had simply disappeared.

"Maybe the case is similar... This girl is named Priscilla, a figure as important as you." A hint of sadness came out of his tone.

Priscilla sacrificed her soul just to seal Tortoise, and the seal wasn't even perfect because of the disturbance Lucifer had caused in the past. Whether by force or not, but most likely Priscilla did so voluntarily. He knew very well his nature, even while in the Hell's Labyrinth, Priscilla formed a conquest union and reached out to the people trapped there.

Rigel walked to the edge of the mattress and gently stroked Priscilla's cheek, "My goal is to make Phoenix his next target because of her... I need the Phoenix's tears and blood to restore his soul. Hmm, that's selfish, isn't it? I pulled everyone into my grasp just to fulfill this selfishness of mine... It's not impossible for me to do it alone, but a split will definitely occur between Heroes."

Pros and Cons will happen, it is possible that Heroes like Marcel assume Rigel is bragging about his powers and such. Even though he already admitted Rigel, but that doesn't mean he really admitted it. There was another part of him that was trying to deny the fact Rigel was stronger than him.

In addition, Rigel had prepared plans for something else. Throwing two birds with one stone, a rottenness will be revealed in front of everyone and the day of vengeance will come. So far, maybe no one knows Rigel's true intentions. If anything, maybe it was Takumi who Rigel had told him about when he made the Hero Sherial before.

"Oh, yeah. So...Do you love her? this beautiful girl named Priscilla?"

Something made Tirith a little afraid of the answer Rigel would give. He knew very well, that no one other than himself had hurt Rigel so deeply, but Rigel's reality was still willing to accept his shocking self. It's not unusual for him to love another girl.

No matter how long Rigel had realized, that he had a huge hole in his heart. A huge hole created for unknown reasons and one that no one will be able to close.

With that answer, regret filled his heart. Tirith thought it was his fault, for the treatment he had done first due to the threat from Takatsumi, he had to dump Rigel. This was due to Tirith's lack of confidence in Rigel's power.

"Oh, yeah... I wouldn't be surprised if you loved him. She is indeed beautiful, even I myself am amazed by the face she has...Then, can I tell you where you know him from?"

Sylph was also interested in that. Priscilla lived in a time very different from the time of Rigel's arrival. There are a thousand years and Rigel suspiciously knew Priscilla when he first met and heard her name. A mystery that will not be revealed other than Rigel or Priscilla himself who told him. However, whether he was really the Priscilla Rigel knew or not, all would be missed when Priscilla came to her senses, that was how Sylph thought.

Rigel was silent, it seemed very clear that he had no intention of answering, but, "In a very distant place, which would not be visited easily. Between heaven and hell, an endless labyrinth." Rigel just gave a very absurd answer to understand.

What can be easily understood from his words is, that it is in another realm or perhaps in a place that will not be visited by the living. Rigel looked back at Priscilla who was sleeping soundly, or perhaps half dead and half alive.

"I will definitely wake you up, Priscilla. No matter how long it takes, even if I have to spend my entire life, I will save you... Wait until the time comes."

Words that have strength and determination. Not just empty words as light as feathers, which will be carried away by the wind. Determination will be avenged and dreams come true. Even if waking up Priscilla was just a fantasy, then Rigel would make that fantasy come true.

"Before leaving, there are things I want to talk to you about first, Sylph. Just between us, can we go somewhere?" Rigel turned to Sylph who was silent and paying attention.

"Then be well. I cannot refuse the request of someone who intends to save my daughter..." A soft smile appeared on Sylph's pretty lips. Although Priscilla is not a child from her womb, it seems that she loves Priscilla as a child.

"Then I'll wait here while you're talking." Tirith threw a smile at Rigel and Sylph who were starting to leave the place.

After walking quite far away from Tirith and Priscilla's place, Sylph began the conversation, "So, what do you want from me, Hero Rigel?"

The silence lasted for a moment until Rigel began to speak, "... Earlier, I wanted to ask you, can you use some kind of teleportation magic for a lot of people?"

Sylph was slightly gobsmacked, "Eh... Yeah, I think I can. However it would be a forced teleportation and for that I would have to be inside the overflowing magic zone. I can't do that magic from the Fairy forest." It was very sudden for Rigel to want to find out about such magic.

"Magic zone is overflowing, yes... I don't know if there's such a place..."

Wait, first. He remembered that there should be such a place, and that might be a good choice. A classified place provides a magic barrier to protect a country, Britannia!

"For that matter, how is the center of the magic barrier supply somewhere in Britannia?"

Sylph was surprised at the suggestion Rigel made, "Excalibur smelting place, yes... Maybe the place fits. However, it is likely that there will be a slight disturbance to the barrier..." It's only natural that Sylph knew Rigel's intentions right away, because he was the one who made the magic protector a reality. But that's not what attracted Rigel.

"Wait... What did you say before? Smelting?"

"Uh, yeah... In order to maintain the magic protector for a long time, with Arthur's permission I helped him melt Excalibur into a golden liquid that continued to flow and give magic in large quantities. For the holy aura that Excalibur has also merged into the holy magic energy around the Excalibur flow."

"So so..." It was only fitting that Takatsumi could possess the Excalibur sword as there was still a part left of Excalibur. It might not hurt for Rigel to visit and get some things from there.

"We get back to the topic, I want you to do one thing with that forced teleportation. As much as possible, I want you to do it in the right timing."

Asking for help without revealing his purpose as much as possible, so did Rigel. The confidentiality of this plan must be maintained, a little leaked then all the networks that have been prepared will be destroyed just like that. It would be unpleasant if such a mature old preparation were ruined by a slight leak of information.

While it is impossible for Sylph to betray Rigel, she is also unlikely to lie if another Hero asks her. If someone asks about Rigel's plan and Sylph is reluctant to answer, from that it can be guessed that Rigel has a plan. For that matter, not telling him much of his plan and making him think the other way is a necessity.

"So then, is it possible that this was about the explosion that occurred as the Phoenix was dying and splitting its body in two? It's not easy to kill two flying targets simultaneously, so you want me to teleport you guys when the explosion happens?" Sylph looked proud of something for having managed to guess a bit from Rigel's plan.

On the other hand, Rigel did not answer Yes or No. Sylph was indeed not wrong about that possibility, "Let's move on to the conversation... You should also watch the fight later and teleport when the signs appear."

Rigel's talks continued and Sylph agreed. The first step is ready, now is the time to sow seeds as bait. The business here is over, Rigel goes to Britannia to do his next business.
