Chapter 94: Black-Magic (1)
Sun Emperor Ahil was sitting at the same table with Ariel, the guild commander, who had just spoken the words that had just been heard to her and was waiting for the time when he would take it back.
The 5th floor was in complete chaos. Even if the Olympus and Asgard guilds were doing their best, it was still known that the power levels of all the higher beings, the climbers, who descended to the 5th floor were incredibly reduced.
This meant that even heroes like Theseus or Ingeld were at a low level, no matter how high their powers were.
It meant that outside of the Church of Night and the Empire, there was nothing but the possibility of help available.
Of course, that didn\'t mean Theseus and the others couldn\'t do anything. After all, while James had been inside the imperial library, they had taken it upon themselves to destroy those who posed a threat, one by one.
Several kingdoms had been destroyed in the process.
Now, however, an unknown force had indeed begun to engulf the fifth floor. It was like some kind of virus, some kind of parasite, something that devoured everyone and everything, but could fully utilise those with intelligence. It was just like a pure black magic.
Which meant that there could have been hundreds of traitors involved.
"We know there\'s nothing that can\'t be stopped, and on top of that, every one of the priests in the Church of Night can see anomalies, so we need to close the empire\'s borders and monitor private passages. Do the priests have a cure?"
Ariel\'s words seemed to warn Ahil.
"There is a cure, divine power can fix them, and even if the source of the virus has not been found, we still think that this black magic is coming from the north, from the frozen mountain. Our priests are already investigating," Ahil suddenly said, and Ariel, hearing this, shook her head:
"That\'s strange, something that didn\'t show up until James left...what\'s going on?"
When Ariel said these words, Ahil shook his head left and right as if he didn\'t understand anything and then said, "I don\'t understand, madam, we can\'t reach Lady Nyx either..."
When Ariel heard these words, she suddenly stood up and then said, "Of course...When James used the ticket, the attention of all the gods turned to James who went to Mount Olympus. Even Theseus couldn\'t reach Poseidon, as if something was blocking the communication, and the absence of James made everyone think that there was no problem."
Ariel had a solution for this, though, which is why she turned to Ahil and said, "Take full control, use as many people as you can, call the priests upstairs if necessary, and try to save the 5th floor. I\'ve got somewhere to go."
Ahil expressed his understanding with great surprise and then asked, "What about you, madam? Where are you going?"
"I\'m going to the 20th Floor to sign a contract with Moros, it\'s the only way we can get their attention right now," Ariel replied.
Ariel\'s goal was to get the attention of the Moros, if possible to come up with a way to help those involved. Since James wouldn\'t be back until the 7 days were up, Ariel could at least lead someone in his place. She hadn\'t been given the rank of commander for nothing.
Ronald had arranged for Ariel to have a special guide manager, and Ariel was able to get to the 20th floor in no time.
The 20th floor was a bit special.
A white space covered the entire floor, and the only thing visible was a temple. The temple looked more like a Greek Mythology temple and was radiant with beauty.
When Ariel saw the temple, she directly entered the temple and encountered the interior architecture, she saw this place again, which she had not seen for a long time, she could not even remember the last time she had been there.
The inside of the temple was filled with hundreds of statues, some of which were familiar to Ariel and some of which were incredibly unfamiliar.
On a small pillar in the centre of the temple was an open book and next to it was a quill and ink.
Ariel slowly walked over to the pillar and picked up the quill and dipped it into the ink, then gently wrote \'Moros of Chaos\' in the book.
As Ariel wrote the name and nickname in the book, the book glowed with a great light and levitated, and the page where Ariel had written Moros\' name was suddenly torn out of the book and disappeared, leaving Moros to do the rest:

"Moros, are you alright?" Nemesis suddenly asked, the words turning all eyes at the feast to Moros and everyone saw his smiling face.
Nyx and James, who had been talking to him, seemed to be trying to figure out what was going on.
"Ariel sent me a class request," Moros said, and James said, "I didn\'t even know that, so Ariel has chosen you, Master Moros, that is great to know."
James\'s words made Moros smile even more deeply and then his expression turned serious.
Looking carefully at the piece of paper flying in front of him, Moros took it in his hand and then signed the paper with the help of a pen that he suddenly took out of his inventory.
The paper then suddenly burnt and fell to the floor as ashes, the deal was signed and Moros seemed to have accepted the request. Every person who went up to the 20th floor received dozens, hundreds, perhaps thousands of such papers, but tore each one up and threw it in the rubbish bin.
In short, Moros had accepted someone for the first time in his life.
