I continued to follow the passage and walked, walked, walked.
If I were to use the numbers on earth to determine how far I have walked,
I would say five to six days straight.
No food, no water, and just an endless continuous walking.
I give kudos to my body for having endured so much and yet still standing and getting even stronger, It's not easy at all.
When I finally ca to, I found myself in the presence of a door.
A door the size of a fully grown man, colored bright red.
just in case, i activated my perception skill to see if I can get any sorts of feeling from behind the door.
I felt nothing coming off of the door or behind it.
Hmmm...,
I am conflicted.
I am here now and I feel so scared.
A part of wants to turn back and just ignore this door.
This is a door I know nothing about.
I do desire power, and I did ca here of my own free will.
the problem is, behind this door is a fate I will have no control over.
I am left naked of what awaits beyond this door.
whether it is true that it is the temple of successor, or a trap laid out, I have no such knowledge.
"damn..",
The feeling of being powerless against certain things sure suck.
Alright co on, get your acts together .
I know what I signed up for when I ca in, so no ti to waver or feel dejected.
I slap my cheeks multiple tis to get my head back on track and in the ga.
when I felt myself back to normal, I placed my hands on the door and pushed it open.
"creakkk..."
hmm....
It opened with a loud creak that made it look like it hasn't been touched in ages.
makes wonder if soone really hasn't gone through it in ages.
I breathe in and out, then took my first step in.
With my leg touching the floor beyond the door, the whole room lit up.
Starting with the walls by my left and right, the light circled down till it got to a point of conjoining.
As a forr human, this should be one of those monts where I will be freaked out.
With the room fully lighted, I slowly make my way into it.
The room's structure is circled, with four pillars placed in the middle.
The pillars are arranged in a way that brings out the shape of a box with four corners.
I move close to the pillar closest to for observation purposes.
Got to see if there is any trap hidden in it.
I noticed nothing that could point to a trap hidden within the pillar.
The only thing on it, are drawings of several human shaped with pointy ears surrounding and kneeling before a burning fire.
A mural painting showing people worshipping a fire?, I think.
I moved over to the other pillars, and I saw the sa thing going on.
From the painting, it is easy to deduct that the burning fire here is being treated as a God or sothing akin to a God,
The point is, it is being treated as an object of faith by the humans kneeling.
My question is, what kind of species are the worshipers?.
from the drawings, they look human enough, but their ears is nothing close to being human.
I would say it is closer to how my ears looks, except theirs is pointed outwards.
The human ears is shaped like a C, while mine is a C with an A without the - putting the A together.
The figures in the mural drawing have their ears protruding out of their head like a cone.
or is it more like a greater than sign?.
This point is, it is an ear type I have never seen before, and I can say for sure, that I have seen all sorts of shit in this hell hole.
They are worshipping a burning fire, that should be enough clue for to know their abnormality is beyond what even this hell hole can describe.
But then again, who am I to judge?.
Going for a treasure left behind by a guy who has been dead for hell knows how many years now.
"sighhh....."
In between the pillars, is a space I am guessing is where I am expected to be in.
At least for a trap, it sure looks like one.
i walk over to the space and stood there.
"what now"
I said, staring blankly into the air.
"WELCO"
Holy shit!!.
what the hell?,
The voice suddenly sprang up from inside the four pillars I am surrounded by, with an heavy tone and its remains echoing out.
"who is there".
"Welco To The Temple Of Successor, Potential Candidate Who Has Earned The Recognition Of The Soul Of The Fire Guardian".
"You Have Been Accessed And Deed Worthy Enough To Inherit The Legacy Of The Fire Guardian".
"The Successor Ceremony Will Now Comnce".
"hey, wait, wait, wait".
"I have a lot of questions I need to asskkkkk".
after he was done, gaseous substance oozed out of the four pillars.
The gases moved in an orderly pace, slowly creeping up on .
my leg was the first part to co into contact with the gas,
When it made contact, I felt my body shudder, and my head spinning.
oh no.....,
I don't feel so goodddd....
This feeling?...,
It's just like when I want to evolve.
