YM778.TV Chapter 957 Friend
Felix entered the spatial rift to the sound of explosions, shockwaves, and lightning from the hundreds of spells the warriors used. Wain and Reto followed him, glancing before him at his Void.
Step. Step. Step.
Felix\'s footsteps echoed strangely though, in the World of Darkness, this one had nothing to show for it. He walked forward, and the darkness covered his feet like threads guiding him to his desired destination.
\'Damn... Did Reto just hit the jackpot for our Void?\' Wain muttered inwardly in disbelief, watching Felix, \'I\'ve never heard anyone interact so seamlessly with World of Darkness.
\'I have a theory about that...\' Abyss Artist said with a thoughtful expression.
\'Hmm? From the sound of your voice, you don\'t sound at all sure of what you\'re saying, I haven\'t seen you like this in hundreds of years...\' Wain was puzzled.
\'Look, this is definitely an unusual situation. At a glance, Felix is a simple Undead with good thief skills, which is already rare, but that is not the most important thing right now.\' The Abyss Artist waved his hand.
He continued, \'Apparently, Felix is quite a lonely man and Reto has taken advantage of that, but there is much more behind Felix\'s loneliness than one might think.
\'I\'ve never seen it, and I doubt anyone has any information about it at all, but it seems World of Darkness has become Felix\'s friend, or at least they\'re on their way to it. Sure, not the whole vastness of space, but this particular darkness that always stays in the background.\'
The Abyss Artist as well as the Blind Sorcerer were scientists in certain fields and they knew far more about many things in this world than Wain or anyone else.
\'I think so too.\' Blind Sorcerer added, \'You need to give this guy as much freedom as possible. Since he should continue to spend a lot of time out in the open. This darkness can provide amazing opportunities, at least that\'s my opinion.\'
Felix\'s situation was unique in that it was almost impossible to be in an open space for even a few minutes before reaching Fifth Chronicle. However, when a creature reaches the Fifth Chronicle, it either has its own space with hundreds of warriors or was a member of some organization.
No one had any reason to stay long in an open space as it was a waste of time, but for Felix it was commonplace, also he was alone.
\'Agh... Unlike Abyss Artist, Blind Sorcerer, or Reto I\'m not used to manipulating others. Well, I think a few simple phrases will suffice for me.\' Wain pondered what could be said to Felix.
Tap.
Wain stopped Felix by putting his palm on his shoulder.
"Hmm? Nameless King, do you want something?" Felix asked with a respectful tone.
"No need, just call me Wain, after all, we are allies now. You can communicate with me just like you do with the others." Wain shook his head as a slight smile appeared on his face.
Felix nodded.
"I just wanted to say a few words to you. You\'re the first one to have such tight contact with the darkness in the open, so you shouldn\'t lose it." Wain looked at Felix\'s feet, which were covered in darkness.
"Hmm? I thought that happens to everyone who travels between spaces a lot." Felix was surprised as well as puzzled.
"Hah, no, consider this a unique opportunity for you that you shouldn\'t lose. Anyway, even though you\'re our ally now, spend as much time as you can in an open space. I\'m sure one day this darkness will be able to give you great power." Wain grinned, patted Felix on the shoulder, and moved on.
Felix stood still for a while and just looked around, inside the vast darkness. There was nothing in the open space, yet at the same time, everything was filled with darkness that was almost alive.
\'Great power...? Maybe for a Nameless King, it would be possible, but it would be enough for me just to be able to move around more easily in this wonderful place...\' Felix inwardly muttered as he reached forward.
Whooooooooooooooosh.
Suddenly a thick darkness, like a fog covered his arm and pulled him along as if it had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
"What the...!" Felix shouted, but before he could say another word the darkness completely engulfed him.
Wain and Reto turned around and immediately prepared to fight, but just like Felix, the darkness covered them and threw them in the same direction. With them, the darkness acted roughly, not at all as gently as it had with Felix.
The next moment they appeared in front of a circular gate that looked more like a water sphere with a secret passage inside.
"What the hell was that?" Reto frowned as his aura intensified. There were some creatures living in the open space that could have attacked them, but he had never heard it so strange.
"Calm down. The darkness did this, not some monster." Wain waved his hand with a deep sigh.
Wain turned to Felix, "Is this the gateway to your Void?"
Felix nodded, "Yeah... It took us a few more minutes to get here. It took me a lot of effort to hide my space properly, I have a dangerous job, you know." Felix shrugged.
"However, this has never happened before. It\'s like the darkness helped me get here as fast as I could, and here we are..." Felix muttered.
"Looks like you\'ve already gone a lot further than I thought. Keep up the good work." Wain smirked, headed forward, and stopped a few steps from the water sphere. He looked at Felix and smirked.
"Felix, I realize something now. If Reto and the others are your new friends, then the darkness from open space has been trying to be your friend for a long time." Wain said slowly pacing toward Felix.
"What...?" Felix\'s eyes went wide.
"Let\'s see what else your most loyal friend can do. Test your friendship, so to speak." Wain put his hand on Felix\'s shoulder and the corners of his mouth formed a sly smirk.
