"What is this Gate?" Emma asked in a soft voice. What happened in the past minute is like a walk in the fantasy.
When I saw the cave first ti, I thought it was just the normal cave and the maximum danger we will encounter in it will be traps and so monster’s but we have never expected for sothing like this to happen.
The gate in front of about two-ter tall and it looks like the simple door we have in our ho, the only difference between the door front of and the one in the house is that this door is made of silvery ruins. The door may be a simple design but it still looked exquisite.
"Team Leader what do you think of this runic door?" I asked, now that this door had appeared and now we have to think about what to do about it as it will not going to stay open forever.
It is now ti to decide whether to go inside or not, I had already decided that I will be going inside but before that, I want to ask the team leader if he knows anything or not, so I could be better prepared.
"No, I’ve never heard about it." The team leader said which disappointed quite a bit as I wanted to have a basic idea of what I am getting into.
"I don’t know what this runic gate is but one thing I can tell you that the runes flashing on it are human ruins and not the ones used by the Grimm race." said team leader which instantly made little relax.
Though the gate having human ruins does not an it is made by us humans as I’ve heard that we can also use Grimm race ruins as long as we reached the high mastery of the human runes.
If Humans can use the Grimm race monster’s ruins then Grimm race monsters could also use our runes and this gate may very well be made my Grimm race but it could also be made by humans which have the highest chances.
Suddenly, the bright runes on the Gate started to dim, though the speed of dimming is low, it still dimming which ans it is decision ti.
"I am going in, you guys should make your decision quick." said the team as he walked into the gate.
"I am also going," I said and walked into the gate right behind him, the light on the gate was dimming and I didnt want to waste any ti lest it disappears suddenly.
Everything in front of turned dark for a second and when I opened my eyes again, I found I am standing on the circular white disk and everything around is very dark.
The circular disk I am standing on is about one ter in diater and there is nothing around it.
Gasp!
As I was looking around, I noticed sothing which made gasp in astonishnt and also very scared.
I found I am wearing very simple white cloths that are not mine and all the things I was wearing were gone, my artifacts, storage, holowatch everything but that is not made scared and astonished.
What made scared and astonished is that I cant feel my connection with the Ashlyn, its like out connections had completly disappeared as it had never been there.
When taking the Guild challenge, I had felt quite similar to this but that ti my connection with Ashlyn was still present. Though I could not contact her or summon her, I knew she is with but here there is nothing, its like she had just disappeared.
That is really scared the shit out of and I was nearly going mad with worry but I forcefully cald myself and started to think about the condition I am in.
The more I started to think, the more I understood that what I am experiencing is not real or not material, its just like the crystal in guild challenge, its just that whatever the thing is, it is more advanced than the crystal used in guild challenge as it had able to isolate my connection with Ashlyn.
With that thought, I calmly sat on the circular silvery disk and waited, my wait turned fruitful as a few seconds later, I got the response that I had been waiting desperately.
"Welco lucky one, I am Sylvia Morningstar, before leaving I have left so chances across the world for the future generation and you are lucky enough co across one of the chances, I’ve left behind. For that I congratulate you." said the Etherial voice.
Leaving? Is she dead or she ant sothing else, I thought. I did not much understand what the ethereal voice said but two things I clearly understood that this voice is from a very powerful figure and this figure had left the chances for the future generation and this made really really happy.
"I have left these chances but to gain these chances you will have to pass three tests of mine, are you willing lucky one?" The Etherial voice asked.
"Yes, I am willing," I said right away.
Are you kidding ? just with the hope of getting a chance, I had taken the steps inside that runic gate without know knowing its dangerousness and now you are asking I am willing or not.
"To the practitioner of magic, three things are absolutely necessary they are Will, Perseverance and Strength." said the ethereal voice.
I wanted to disagree saying that Strenth is most important than the Will and Perseverance but I stopped myself thinking it is a bad choice to contradict such a powerful figure who said she had left but she still sohow talking to .
"Strength is the least important of three, as long as one has a strong Will have and Perseverance, strength will co naturally." The ethereal voice said as she if reading my mind.
"The first test is a test of Will, only those who have will strong enough to shoulder the world, will have the power to reach the Apex."
"The test of Will will start in minutes and what you have to do is endure it without faining."
"The more you endure the greater your rewards would be and if you are able to break your limit then you might even receive so expected benefits." said the ethereal voice with a small laugh.
Endure, is it going to bombard with the pain? I hope it is pain, If its turned out to be a pain then its really good as I am confident about my pain tolerance, I have experienced it too many tis, I thought.
I sat calmly as I waited for the test to start, very much hoping it is pain that I will have to endure.
Ting.
Second, passed by and when one minute is over, I heard soft chi but to my surprise, no pain ca which I had been waiting for.
A few seconds passed and I jokingly thought that it is the silence that I will have to endure when suddenly an indescribable feeling washed over which shook from my core and scared from the bottom of my soul so much that I am not even able to twitch my finger.
