When he saw the familiar vortex appear in the empty space in front of him, Emery felt an electric sensation coursing through his body. He was overjoyed to see that he could open his storage room once again.
Then after that, his mind drifted to the many items he had left in the storage space; the weapons, potions, and other valuables.
To his surprise, when he took a look inside, he found that the space within was much more spacious than in his memories. Even the gate which was the entrance to the space was wide enough for his body to walk through.
Intrigued by the new find, Emery quickly stepped inside and found himself in a familiar-looking dark space, but now it seemed to have become three times bigger than the last time he came. The discrepancy between what he saw and what he remembered made him question his memories of the place.
His suspicions became even stronger when he couldn't find any of his belongings inside and felt a foreign feeling towards the place despite the familiarity. The final nail in the coffin was when he saw Morgana casually following him into the place.
While he was surprised to see her, the gears in Emery's mind went off, and realized what was actually happening.
"This is not my spatial space, this is yours... I only help open it for you."
That was the only reasonable explanation Emery could think of to explain the situation. After all, it was Morgana's Magus Spirit Core that was used to channel the spell, while he was only assisting to form and cast the spell formation. As for the larger size, it's obviously Morgana Magus's realm that made it possible.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe unexpected revelation was a huge letdown to Emery was an understatement, especially so when he had really thought earlier that he would finally be able to regain his darkness element power.
But then, just as he was about to leave Morgana's Spatial Space, his eyes caught a glimpse of something shocking. In the corner of the space, he spotted a familiar rune-covered stone door – one that looked exactly like the one he had seen in the Khaos space.
"What the hell?! Why is that here?"
Morgana was also surprised when she followed Emery's gaze and saw the door. When they turned towards each other, they could see confusion in both of their eyes. Nodding their heads, they quickly approached the door together.
Emery could clearly feel that his heartbeat was getting faster. Subconsciously swallowing his saliva, he touched the door trying to enter. However, he quickly discovered that he couldn't.
Even though it clearly looked like a door, it was like an immovable stone wall to him. He couldn't get it to budge no matter how hard he tried.
Realizing his efforts were futile, Emery turned to Morgana and asked her to retell the story of her arrival one more time. The red-haired girl casually walked up and touched the door when the rune suddenly glowed and her body instantly absorbed it.
"Morgana!!" Emery shouted seeing her figure disappear.
He was worried about Morgana's sudden disappearance, but before he could do anything, a pair of arms extended out of the door and grabbed his arms, pulling his body inside.
When he opened his eyes, Emery found himself standing on a huge rock floating in space. Hundreds of thousands of stars surrounded him in the distance, above and below, while the runic stone door was behind him.
There were lots of rocks of various sizes floating around him and surprisingly a lot of broken constructs as well. The desolate sight was as if great destruction had occurred in this place. But one thing is certain, this place is filled with the power of Khaos.
"What is this place?"
Emery looked at Morgana as he asked the question, but the expression on her face showed that she was just as clueless as he was. After observing the place for a while, he suggested the idea of exploring and investigating the floating rocks that were around them.
Emery kicked off the ground and jumped onto one of the nearby rocks, while Morgana conjured a pair of fiery wings on her back to follow him. The two of them immediately explored the rock but found nothing significant.
"That's convenient," Emery commented when he saw her wings.
In response, Morgana casually said, "You can't fly? Should I take you to the next one?"
Imagining that it would be quite an embarrassing sight, Emery swiftly refused. "No, thank you." He said as he quickly jumped onto the next floating rock.
To their surprise, this next floating rock had a similar stone covered in runes like the one they came out of. However, it did not glow when Morgana touched it.
The two of them continued their exploration, moving on to the next floating rock where they managed to find a few more runic stones until finally, he came across a massive rock that looked almost like a landmass on the horizon.ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net
As he made his way towards the rock, Emery strangely found himself growing anxious. When he finally arrived at the floating landmass, he realized that it was actually the ruins of some kind of destroyed construct.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere were several broken statues around what appeared to be the entrance, and when the two of them went inside, they saw a circular hall with four dark rune stones surrounding a pitch-black crystal standing right in the center, which emitted a powerful aura.
Not knowing what else to do in this place, Emery was planning to touch the crystal when he suddenly heard a voice.
"If you don't wish to die, Do not touch it!"
It was a voice that made a certain memory come back to him.
"Killgragah?!" Emery quickly shifted his gaze around as he said that name. Unable to find the dragon's figure, he then said, "Where are you?"
"I'm still stranded where you left me, you stupid brat!!"
After listening carefully, Emery realized the sound was coming from one of the four dark rune stones next to the crystal, which he noticed now was glowing slightly.
"Killgragah, why is your voice here? What is this place?"
eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ An exasperated sigh was heard before the dragon spoke again. "You lower realm people are truly too ignorant. Even after so many years in the Magus universe you still can't guess?"
The dragon's voice chuckled proudly as he said,
"You are within Khaos Domain, Master of Space and Lord of Darkness. What you see here are waypoints into several places all over the universe"
