"You're late." Fedrick looks pretty bored waiting for Kendric. He leaned casually against the walls of the building. "So, what are you doing? "
"Just take care, some pests."
The base of this secret room is so very deep and also dark, fortunately there are still some torches that light up even though the lighting is too dim.
Kendric looked at the environment, there was a lot of black flames burning up poisonous snakes, no wonder Fedrick was bored enough to wait for him. Faster than I could have imagined, Kendric thought.
"What about this place?"
"I've understood this labyrinth room, only I haven't explored it yet because the troublesome things continue to smell from every hallway."
Kendric led the way through the labyrinthine passages that looked like places of torture. He could understand why Fedrick was a little reluctant to go down first and faithfully waited for him.
From every distance of one meter on the walls of the passageway, there was a prison cell that stored so many bones that were already so dry but for the Demon nation that had sensitive senses, they were able to smell the bodies piling up feelings of resentment.
Miasma Hatred, the,
"They are the family as well as the descendants of the Resscount." Kendric concludes that the prisoner who has become a pile of corpses, is a Resscount family who is hunted only to help force Octopus in his savage plan.
"Who's Resscount? "
"They are the real family of Tahlia. Just like the Tahlias who developed dark magic, each of their descendants can read forbidden ancient magic and it was harnessed by Octopus. I don't think there are any Resscount descendants other than Tahlia, but unfortunately she can't survive either."
"No wonder, if here so many souls who hold grudges. I don't like the stinging air of their unsettled souls. So annoying!"
"They just demand justice." Kendric walked back through each of the labyrinthine passages.
However, it was as if he listened well to the complaints of various souls who kept asking for hope from a celestial Emperor. Kendric took over the burden of life and the resentment left behind by the fragile soul in that cell.
And let them go quietly, because as a ruler it is his responsibility to take over and punish the person who is so hated by them.
One by one the bones that were there started to disappear into starlight grains, unleashing hatred and leaving quietly. When they feel that justice will be there for them, the sun takes over the darkness and punishes the sinner.
"Gellium's majesty is with you, Sire." Kendric's gratitude for his actions reaped a sense of calm for a soul still caught in grudge.
Fedrick was quite amazed by the attitude taken by the ruler of this God. It is not easy to take over the burdens of life or the problems that remain of people who are gone.
If it was Fedrick he was a little unable, because every day there will be many things that continue to whisper you to demand revenge. So that the body and mind will be dragged madness to finish off all things that sound dizzying.
That's why Fedrick has always been reluctant to touch the feelings left behind by the souls of the dead, because to control the emotional, the Demon nation is so bad.
"If you look, there's only one direction in this labyrinthine hallway, this door must be the main room that is the Octopus's area of power."
"From the beginning this place was just a formality. So much dark magic throughout this sacred edifice, do they hope to be the heavens governing the earth? It's ironic" Kendric opened the door without a secret key to open it.
It's so messy in there than the lab above. The tubes of the Goblin experiment are arranged on the table. And it seems like everything they want to know is there, Carzie's book is in Octopus' hands.
But rather than magic tubes, they were more interested in the objects that were on the table. If you look at the position, this is not an Octopus chair.
There are two book notes that become the journal of magic and research Carzie. Each of them read that one book, and it was so amazing what they read.
This is too awesome and remarkable for the size of a human being who can research every level of mana power. In fact, he managed to create a new power if he combined mana with mana nature in such a large amount. No wonder Octopus is so obsessed with this book.
"Is Carzie really a human being?"
"When this happened, I was in seclusion and was not very interested in what happened to Selini Thea and her Mate. But just then Carzie's existence and scientific genius sufficiently shook Imorrtal."
"How did he research all this? Not many mortal nations like us choose to live on earth, even I'm sure they won't make their identity."
"He was a journalist obsessed with mythological matters. He traveled from country to country with the remains of medieval ruins. Where the gods or the nation of the night often interact with humans."
"One possibility that makes him confident that beings other than humans exist and the mortal world indeed coexist, is when he managed to find a lost civilization. And indigenous history writes that Gods and Goddesses existed to protect the territory of royal authority. This made him become obsessed with unlocking the secrets of the world, plus he met directly with Vasilissa Imorrtal, Selinin Thea."
"But this is strange, there is something unexplained with the main factor of the Moon Goddess' relationship with Carzie." Fedrick assumed and his mind kept wondering long ago.
If two different people of the world become lovers of nature will demand separation. But why the relationship with Lezzy goes smoothly, Aletha and Welliam actually supported nature, even Kendric so sure Lucy Mate who in nature wanted to be the perfect leader in Imorrtal.
Then why should Carzie and Selini Thea be sued for separation? Is it really because of Octopus?
"I've thought about this too. Selini was a Empress, her strength was great and sufficient to resist all the commandments of Octopus. In a sense he could have saved his Mate from the death penalty and exile of Goddess Alice, but there seems to be a problem that makes him unable to resist the orders of nature or just sue Octopus."
True, Kendric also always thought why should Selini Thea first take over the throne when they could both be King and Queen, he said, or if it must be one more sun ruler can uphold the highest authority to be made emperor.
Nature will not demand separation from the deaths of two different peoples of the world. Because Mate exists because nature wants it. Even if you want to separate it by force or not.
Forced because the pair made an unforgivable mistake, he had to part in seclusion without having to remember each other.
And the second choice, they choose to part unilaterally or be separated by the will of the Emperor for certain reasons such as the first point.
Selini was a Vasilissa but Carzie noted that he was right Vasilias. What made him to be sentenced to death?
Kendric looked at Carzie's two books and seemed to realize one thing. Carzie makes a mistake by defying nature, he makes a forbidden magic journal resume that should not be scrutinized. Even Gods were forbidden to study it but he even made a magic-related book that could surpass the word limit itself.
It is only natural that human beings do not touch the mortal world or the secrets behind it. But Carzie becomes blind and his selfish human nature drives his curiosity about the forces of nature.
The result he did was many eyes of the Gods or the nation of the night who wanted great power. They went crazy just to get Carzie's book. And bloodshed ensued, nature was angry and as punishment Carzie must indeed be adjudicated.
And Carzie could have been returned to earth and erased his memory of the mortal world. But Octopus pleaded, that death was a punishment worth the many lives that fell to the world of Imorrtal.
While Selini Thea was sentenced to become an authority ruler, because he was unable to prosecute his own lover or stop his actions in making a banned book.
And it was clear that Octopus was using this punishment to control the empty power, slowly gaining a speck of hope to carry out his buried plan.
"Humans, if they're obsessed with something, can be scarier than people like us."
"That's why the creator forbids you to be greedy in any form, even if it's for justice."
The two of them sighed, instead of finding a solution to the Alabasta disaster, instead discussing Carzie and his findings. But it is indeed unfortunate that both books of carzie only apply the way of making and research data magic without any explanation of the countermeasures as an antidote to this scientific magic.
Even the Alabasta thing is written only a little and very short. It was a waste that they were looking for this book. Moreover, Kendric is already tormented because he misses Lucy who he let be in his Castle.
"Try looking in a certain corner, I hope we find something. Both of these books I have copied to try carefully to find the antidote." Kendric walked towards the table which contained a kind of neatly arranged laboratory equipment, with various kinds of things being examined into a new magic liquid.
But they did not find any significant records relating to Krhanos or Alabasta. Kendric looked panicked and a little disappointed, what if he didn't manage to find a single clue. Doesn't mean her lover will be in more danger.
"Hey, come and see this." Fedrick was seen finding something, hearing that Kendric rushed over to Fedrick.
From behind the curtain of dark purple curtains, there is a scrawl of paper that is always written Robin said. Fedrick doesn't understand it but there's one thing they're trying to destroy from someone's existence.
"It looks like Octopus is targeting Little Winkly."
"You say something? "
"Nothing, Little Winkly's security should be strengthened."
"Why? "
"It looks like Octopus is planning to attack the descendants of the Demon."
"How dare he try to hurt my grandson! I'd better get back. Isn't there anything to hint at here?"
"Unfortunately there were none other than Carzie's two books."
"I think it's best not to seek any more, success against them, it depends on our own ways and efforts. I'll try to discuss this with my subordinates. Just let me know if you have any other strategies."
"................" Kendric did not respond, he was staring seriously at the name that continued to be scribbled from the wall that laid out their plan.
Instead, Kendric gets a clue that Octopus is hunting down Robin's descendants, and this keeps him thinking. Moreover, Octopus thought Sofia was the reincarnation of Robin himself.
Wasn't it! not because there are no more clues, but there is a good chance Carzie has another book that he never knew about. Selini Thea will not let her lover create a great and forbidden magic just like that.
There must be one book still hidden, but what? and how it exists and is hidden where.
"The sun will rise soon, it will be better if we leave here. There's been too much trace left since you took out that pest."
"You're right, I also can't use my powers more because they'll be able to realize my existence here."
"Come----"
"Great Chief. The whole Heiton snake went up in flames and also, we felt someone's presence here."
Fedrick and Kendric looked at each other, hearing this little scream from outside the room, it could make them think that Titania's forces had returned to duty, and this was faster before the Sun actually rose.
"Octopus has returned," that's what's ingrained in their minds.
BRACKET!
And without any cue, the door opened violently revealing 20 Titania troops as well as one middle-aged man in his magnificent temple uniform.
"CATCH THAT INTRUDER!!"
