In legends, Maria Makiling was a forest nymph who takes care of the ecologically rich Mount Makiling; a dormant volcano in Laguna, Philippines.
She is considered the protector of the mountain and the forests that surround it, including the creatures and people within it. She is also considered one of the most widely known nymph or diwata in Philippine Mythology.
While many legends and myths exist about her, many share the common the of a beautiful woman who falls in love with a man.
Thus, this can be said that Maria Makiling was one of the Nymphs and Fairies that were prone to fall in love with a man.
While walking around the palace, Allen constantly felt Maria Makiling’s gaze behind him, to the point that he felt uncomfortable. She seems to be observing his every action.
Although he doesn’t really mind but… soone observing your every move is really uncomfortable.
“What’s with that woman…?” Aileen asked Allen as she too felt Maria Makiling’s gaze.
Due to King Manaul’s death, all the monsters and bird people imdiately retreated and escape causing the battle to end after a few minutes since it started. They seem to have lost hope of protecting their kingdom.
Still, casualties appeared – though only from the Danag Kadlaw tribe. Several people seem to have lost their lives during the battle.
As for Imali’s sister and the other captives, they were reunited with their families.
They thank Allen and even kneeled in front of him, in which indifferently disregard. He didn’t really do much… in fact; it’s as if he just walked by and save them due to him killing ti.
Allen glanced at Maria Makiling who was following behind them and couldn’t help but flash a wry smile.
Contrary to what he had expected, Maria Makiling didn’t react much. After so confusion, she beca silent and then started observing Allen, much to his dismay.
Every movent he made was observed by her. She didn’t say anything and didn’t even try to mingle with the other won and talk.
Thus, she was just left alone.
“I don’t know,” Allen shrugs.
After being led by so birdn captive, Allen and the others finally arrive in what it seems to be ‘King Manaul’s Treasure House’
Pushing the door, what greeted them was a sight to see.
"Amazing.......”
“Wow....."
"Woah…......"
Aside from Allen, Alkrasha, Maria Makiling and Mireya who were indifferent to treasures like this, all the other people including Jayla, Aileen, Sara, and Mayla, were speechless after uttering just one word.
After opening the door, what greeted them was a treasure trove that could blind one’s eyes.
The treasure was quite a huge space, probably around twenty or so ters in length and width. The wall and floor were golden in color.

High up on the ceiling were bid cages of the sa color, golden and lined up to give a hanging design.
But what grabbed their attention was the dazzling reflection filling the entire room.
Gold. Gold coins and ornants such as rings, bangles, and necklaces made of gold and silver.
Of course, there were jewels scattered everywhere, tapestries carefully embroidered with gold, a transparent glass that shines with the brilliance of a rainbow with images of animals in it.
There were also those pieces of arts like the sculptures made of crystals and gold with the size of a normal human, a portrait of noble won and goddess or nymphs who smiled so realistically it was almost as if they were alive.....
Obviously, one can’t forget about weapons and armors, shields, furniture, and all kinds of golden objects were piled up to a scale where it was impossible to count.
As the insides of the room sank into darkness, the full extent of the treasure was entirely unfathomable.
One can't even imagine how much there is. It truly is a mountain of gold.
Ignoring the surrounding’s stunned expressions, Allen walked leisurely toward the treasure mountain.
“Well, then,” He turned around and took out his Vit. Com and raised it higher. Flash!
A cara flashed.
“What are you doing?” Alkrasha asked with a faint smile.
“Selfie~” Allen made a V sign. He then operated his Vit. Com. And posted the picture he had taken along with the words, “Found another sea of treasures!!”
… …
… …
Bang!!
The second Allen’s post ca out, the Vit. Chat room erupted in noise. It was filled with tags, shares, and likes.
And after a few seconds, there were already several dozens of comnts:
[ Tulip ]: Oh my god!! OoO so many!!?
[ Bull ]: Leader, our share! Don’t forget our share!!
[ Black Panthera ]: Where the heck did you find those again!?
[ Black Panthera ]: The treasury is gonna be full again! >o<
… …
The amount of treasure beca a hot topic flaming to the heavens. Other than that, there were also people discussing about the items and artifacts that can be exchanged again in the Vivite Liberi Treasury, after all, it was Allen who had found it and surely, it would end up in Vivite Liberi once again.
The chat room once again beca noisy and many people started chatting care freely.
On the other part of the world, in King Manaul’s palace.
The people behind Allen couldn’t help but suck cold breath and their eyes imdiately flashed so color of greed. However, no one dared to step forward and enter.
They know that these treasures would certainly not end up in their pockets and even a single coin wouldn’t make their way through their wallet. They could only stare and drool in envy!
As for storing it, Allen never got worried about it.
Without saying anything, Allen summoned Solomon’s Divine Grimoire. In an instant, every stepped he took, all the things he passed by was sucked into the Grimoire.
This was one of the new abilities the Grimoire acquired after it had transford into its current form. Its storage doesn’t have any limitation anymore and can store as much as he wants inside it.
All the people who wanted to say sothing shut their mouths imdiately the mont the Grimoire appeared and started absorbing everything.
Even a single stone was not overlooked and was absorbed by the Grimoire.
No one said anything. Even Mayla shut her mouth and didn’t dare utter a single word or complained.
She could only sigh.
“You don’t need to worry about it,” Aileen suddenly smiled at her. She then nudged her elbow teasingly, “Allen isn’t greedy. He would give you your share after we ca back…”
“Really!?” Mayla cheered.
“Yeah, I assure you!” Mayla’s spirit imdiately surged. A brilliant smile blossod on her face.
Allen absorbed everything he sees when he suddenly noticed several huge eggs lining towards the side.
7 huge eggs.
Allen’s eyes narrowed.
[ Arimaonga Egg ]
[ Bolawan Datomanong Egg ]
[ Apdel Egg ]
[ Gaki Egg ]
[ Daruanak Egg ]
[ Dayamdam Egg ]
And lastly, [ Ibingan Egg ]
Different Monster Eggs… huh… Allen shrugs and absorbed the Eggs into the Grimoire.
Following was nurous prompts appearing in front of Allen, displaying several magic items, artifacts and monster eggs that he had acquired. Along with this, his experience points with his Grimoire skyrocketed.
After a few minutes of walking around, Allen finally absorbed everything and the once treasure room was now completely empty!
From his estimate, he had actually acquired almost a hundred magic items and artifacts!
What a good haul!!
