Devi was floating around the Nova academy cetery enjoying the night ti air. He was very excited to experience the dense energies that had gathered here. From what Clark had explained, this was a cetery where many with unreached dreams ca to rest. They had failed in their lessons only to perish Or there were beasts that had not made it through the training they endured.
This being said, Devi was able to feed off the small amounts of death energy that lted up from the graves. So were stronger or weaker depending on when the beast or person had perished. This alone was a great way for him to store away the energy for when Clark would ditate.
Yet, there was always a tugging feeling. Sothing right outside of Devi's perception that made him want to pursue it. A single stream of energy seed to be tugging at him towards one of the larger graves built in to the side of a hill.
Once Devi had reached it, he found that there was much more than just a grave. The single stone was part of a large door carved with careful intention. The shapes that were revealed were those of battles and teaching. It was safe to say that this was the grave of a professor that had died within the academy. There was no other reason that the grave would be built in to a mausoleum.
This discovery greatly excited Devi because this was sothing that Clark had more or less told him to find. He had been told to play around and discover the energy he needed to grow. There was also the fact that Devi could feel the strong energy within the grave that he could share with Clark. The desire to open the taming space was not only for Clark to have.
Both Crim and Devi had reached the understanding that it would be better to rest within such a space to grow and rest.
The door proved to be no issue. With so careful exploration of the entire stone structure on the outside, Devi found the crack that the energy he felt was escaping from. With ease, Devi squeezed through it and found the pitch darkness within. It felt comfortable to him, the feeling of the emptiness that he was born with inside him.
Within just a few more monts, Devi had adjusted to the environnt within the mausoleum. He found that so water had managed to drain within making mushrooms, moss, and even molds bloom in to life along the floors and walls. Above was a ss of spiderwebs that no longer held the spiders that created them.
The sights of this mausoleum pushed Devi to explore even more. He had not expected such an interesting place to be here. Therefore, he moved down the stairs towards the source of the energy he felt. It was a mix of death and spiritual energy, yet, it was more than that. There were multiple sources of the energy.
Just when Devi reached the bottom of the mausoleum where the bodies should have been left to rest, the energy spiked. The air beca even denser than it had been before and Devi felt that he was being watched.
"You who enter my master's resting place. Do you have the strength to take the inheritance he left behind? Do you have the stomach to take away the pure energy he let dissipate since his end?" The echoing voice was only in Devi's mind. He knew it was nowhere physical.
"I see. You are a unique beast. One very unlike myself and very similar. Do you desire the spiritual energy to follow my path to beco a psychic entity? Do you wish to follow my brother in arms and beco a deeper shadow than any other beast had been? Or do you wish to attempt to comprehend the energy only available after death from my master?"
Translucent shapes appeared within the mausoleum resting room. There was a strange shape similar to an owl. It flickered as it turned its head looking on to the depths of Devi's soul. "No, you have left the spiritual path. You can not follow to beco a soul that can exist after death. Nor do you follow the path to beco the darkest shadow."
Debi could see the three large stone beds. One had the bones of the owl he could see. The other had the bones of another unidentified beast. The third had gray bones of what seed to have once been a human. However, the bones were clearly falling to dust even as he watched.
"My master fought and taught for many years to allow this academy to stand. He left his energy for those to collect upon his death, yet none felt it. None were able to rise up and claim his strength. It has dissipated for many years. You are too late to gain anything worthwhile. But I will allow you to take what you can.
When his bones finally beco dust I will finally move on as well."
Being an undead, Devi was not afraid of such a spirit. The owl beast had been so form of a spiritual beast that left behind an energy with its consciousness intact to a degree. It had watched over the bones of its master while they aged. For a tar to leave behind their energy, was the sa as leaving behind a taming space dungeon.
The laughter that Devi released echoed through the chamber. He was not mocking the resting tar but approving of the owl's ideas. Devi would take the energy he could get just as Clark wanted him to. He would use it to help Clark open his beast space. That was a sure thing.
Just as Devi started to consu the energy, he noticed the bones falling to dust more and more. Small shimrs of silver spread around him as this happened. It was the final goodbye that the tar had to the world. The energies that Devi could never absorb dissipated to beco one with the world.
It was not long that Devi consud the deathly energy around the bones. They dissipated too quickly leaving nothing but dust. The mont that they did beco dust, the bones of the two beasts also lted in to piles of dust. Devi could feel an even deeper emptiness in the mausoleum, however, he felt a little more complete. He was a little spirit, a being that was considered a myth.
Yet, he could feel complete by seeing these three off for their final rest.
There was no reason for Devi to remain in the mausoleum. He felt weighed down by the energy he had consud. He felt that Clark needed it and he was better off rushing to his side. It wasn't that Devi wasn't supplying energy through their bind, but the density he had absorbed was too great. He needed to be in contact with Clark to make what he needed happen.
"What's with you? You seem so energetic. Did you find sothing good?" Clark was dodging Maria's dagger slashed when he arrived back where he had left them. There was only a rushed laugh before Devi smashed himself in to Clark's chest to show him the energy he had gathered.
The energy Clark could use to open the taming space he needed so that he could step ahead of the entire first and even most of the second year classes.
