BXBX NOVEL Chapter 491 Promise
[Remorseful Blade] [Rank: Quasi-Platinum]
[Characteristics: this sword has part of a spectre\'s essence within it as its core, so it shares characteristics with that being.]
[Details: it can purify or eliminate spectres, but it is also a weapon capable of inflicting incurable damage on demons up to 100% stronger than the sword user.]
Lothur saw the details of this weapon and was open-mouthed, shocked at the first thing he had ever seen or touched that had the name \'Platinum\' in its rating.
Obviously, being strict, this was a Gold-grade item. But it was so far above other items of this grade that it deserved to be one level above it.
Since this level was closer to the Platinum grade, Lothur could not help but be moved with this item.
\'Quasi-Platinum... That should do a damned bit of damage when used against demons.\' He imagined this as he played with that sword a bit.
But even if one side of him wanted to make him choose it, his reason would not allow him to ignore the other characteristics of the others.
Something was not necessarily better just because it had a higher rating. As long as there were differences in usability and compatibility, a lower-quality item might prove to be the most suitable.
That was the situation with the Golden Finger, which, despite only being a Gold-grade item, could give Lothur something he lacked. But, on the other hand, the quasi-Platinum-grade sword could do nothing new for him, despite how impressive it was.
With that in mind, Lothur could not help but choose that ring after much resistance.
"I will take that item." He showed the golden ring to the dinosaur projection.
Upon seeing that, the creature there was somewhat surprised to see Lothur choosing that item, not the sword. \'It seems he understands more of the remnants left by my master than he seems to...\'
"Well, are you ready to move on to the next chamber?" It asked without questioning this fellow\'s motivations.
Lothur placed the ring on his right index finger and nodded to that beast. "I am ready."
"Very well. I will now send you to the training chamber, where you will have the next 24 hours to train before I send you out of it." It said as it pressed its two front paws against each other without touching them.
A dark hole slowly opened up in the middle of them, and it said. "Good luck. If we get the chance one day, I would like to see you in person..."
With these words, this being did not give Lothur a chance to ask or say anything else. Instead, it immediately caused this young man\'s body to be sucked through that hole, sending him into space to the side of that area.
Lothur did not think it was bad and just remained silent, seeing that this projection was not the type to talk more than necessary.
He kept what information he could about this place in his mind, along with the being\'s last words.
He was curious to meet that dinosaur, as well as to question it about other beings of its species. But he had not had the opportunity this time and could only wait for fate to give him another chance to hear something about these beings.
But Lothur\'s priority was to take advantage of the opportunities of this place and leave in the direction of Peters City in order as soon as possible to return to his plans with the Ritter Motor Company.
Immediately after falling out of the hole that sucked him into a place surrounded by white mist, quite clear, he focused his senses and prepared to train.
That was the training room of the Immortals Well, the area where the Laws and elements of all this remnant of the humanoid species of sea beasts that had lived there in the past were most concentrated.
Because of this, any being that entered there and had the chance even to stand still, breathing the surrounding air, could achieve comprehension improvements in their techniques.
But if this fortunate being took the opportunity to train, their benefits would be much better!
Lothur did not need to hear about this from anyone. Besides the place\'s name indicating the obvious, he had already been to a place similar to this, only of a lower level, when he had been in Lewerenz.
\'Great!\'
\'I will improve my understanding of my techniques and have physical advancements beyond normal by training here!\' He smiled as he checked his surroundings, which were empty.
Then Lothur stowed his non-essential items in his spatial ring and soon began training, not wanting to waste time from the limited hours he would have there.
Cross Walk!
...
A few hours later, outside the labyrinth...
The two level 16 great beasts had just finished their hours-long battles in that place, coming to a draw when both were already severely wounded and gave up this senseless fight.
But that had not happened because of brotherhood consciousness or any other nonsense. On the contrary, in the middle of their conflict, one of the beasts in the area informed them that Lothur had not yet left the labyrinth.
Some beasts had been watching the corridors connecting the labyrinth with other chambers in the Immortals Well to cause trouble for him. Thus, some beings in this place knew that Lothur had been missing since he had started the challenge of the labyrinth.
When one of those beings decided to see why Lothur was taking so long to finish that place, it came across the fight between the two Transcendent beasts and gave the information that finalized their conflict.
"Did he really do it?" The crocodile wondered aloud, not believing this, what should be the most likely possibility behind Lothur\'s disappearance.
"Maybe he died..." The other said, but sincerely wishing that Lothur had accomplished that feat.
As much as they themselves were not going to benefit from it, perhaps Lothur had the hint for them to make it to the next level of the labyrinth. And at worst, they would at least be able to learn about what lay ahead of their limit.
As such, both beasts wished Lothur success in this regard, and when they left from there, they headed straight for where the main beasts of this lake were supposed to be.
"What about our bet?" The lizard asked halfway down the path for them to inform their leaders of the situation.
The other Transcendent said. "If Lothur died, I lost the bet. But if he\'s still alive, we both made a mistake."
"Hmm, I can accept that." This lizard shook its head, feeling that this was not unfair.
The white fox that had partnered with Lothur earlier heard this and felt terrible, thinking it would be a great injustice for someone like that fellow to die in this place.
The Immortals Well had its dangers, and beasts occasionally died there. But talented beings did not usually perish in this place because besides having good talents to take advantage of opportunities, they usually knew their own limits.
Considering how it judged Lothur, this white beast was hopeful that the silver-haired young man had reached the end of the labyrinth!
\'If you are alive, I will give you a ride back to your city.\' It thought to itself silently as it sat down in front of the exit of the labyrinth.
