Max smiled to himself as he ntally reviewed his new gains.
One powerful technique: Sun Battle Body (Rare Rank).
Three new skills: Space Freeze (Rare Rank), Lightning Needle (Uncommon), Flaming Kick (Common).
'In short, I got four new skills and three new techniques.'
Max mused smiling thinking he would be busy after he left the temple.
That didn't an he left behind anything.
No.
He had taken everything.
Not a single valuable item was left behind.
Everything was stored safely within him.
As he walked out, a thought crossed his mind.
'Now I can level up without worrying about how to get so many cores.'
With this mountain of resources, his progression was no longer limited.
As Max and the blob walked out of the treasury, a sudden thought crossed his mind.
"Tell …" Max's voice was calm but filled with curiosity.
"Since I'm the owner of the temple now…"
He turned to the blob, his sharp eyes narrowing slightly.
"That ans I can enter again whenever I want, even after leaving—right?"
The blob nodded without hesitation.
"Yes, you can."
Max's lips curled into a satisfied smile.
"Great."
He exhaled in relief.
"That way, I can check on the miniature sun whenever I need to."
He understood that the miniature sun was no ordinary artifact.
And while he didn't know what it truly was,
He knew one thing—
It was valuable.
With the ability to return to the temple at will,
He didn't have to rush into anything.
Instead, he could take his ti—
Study it.
Prepare for it.
And when the ti was right…
He would claim it for himself.
Max's smile deepened as he glanced around the temple that was now his.
"This place is more useful than I thought."
As Max prepared to leave, the blob's voice called out to him—
"Are you leaving now?"
There was sothing different in its tone.
A mix of reluctance and uncertainty.
Max paused, then turned to the blob with a smile.
"Yup."
The blob remained silent.
It wanted to say sothing.
To ask for sothing.
But it seed…
It didn't know how.
Seeing this, Max chuckled and spoke first—
"Well, you can co with if you want."
The blob's form trembled slightly.
It hadn't expected those words.
Then—
Max grinned and added—
"Just know that I can't feed you."
His eyes flickered with amusent.
"You have to earn your share all by yourself."
At first—
The blob nearly teared up from joy.
It had been alone in this temple for ten thousand years.
The thought of finally leaving—
Of seeing the outside world again—
Filled it with overwhelming emotions.
But then—
The second part of Max's words hit him like a boulder.
"Humph!"
The blob snorted, puffing up its form.
It tried to act tough, crossing its liquid arms.
"Who do you think I am?"
It huffed.
"Of course I will earn my own food!"
Max smiled brightly, seeing the blob's reaction.
"Then let's go and leave the temple."
But the blob didn't move imdiately.
Instead, it lingered, its liquid form shifting slightly.
Then, in a more uncertain tone, it asked—
"Are you sure you want to take with you?"
Max shrugged, his expression casual.
"I see no point in you staying here."
He stretched his arms before adding with a grin—
"And since I beca the owner of the temple…"
A mischievous glint flashed in his eyes.
"You're more or less my servant now."
His grin widened.
"So, you should listen to ."
Silence.
Then—
"Who are you to command ?!"
The blob went berserk, its entire form trembling in midair like a raging storm.
It flared up, shifting erratically, practically vibrating with fury.
Max grinned, his eyes glinting with mischief.
"Hehe."
His expression turned thoughtful as he looked at the blob.
"Though I'll have to keep you hidden for so ti after we leave the temple."
The blob nodded, its form shifting slightly.
"I understand your concerns."
It wasn't naïve—
The outside world knew it as the spirit that controlled the temple.
If word got out that Max had the sa spirit companion, it would attract unwanted attention.
However—
The blob tilted its head in confusion.
"But how would you do that?"
It floated slightly higher, staring curiously at Max.
"If we leave the temple, I'd definitely be seen with you."
Max's grin widened.
"There's sothing you'll definitely like."
His voice was full of amusent.
He lifted his hand and reached out—
Touching the blob.
And then—
The blob disappeared.
Gone from the temple.
—
"Huh? How did I co here?"
The blob blinked, confused.
One mont, it was inside the temple—
The next, it found itself in a completely foreign land.
It floated around, its liquid form trembling with shock.
"What is this place?"
Then—
It finally took in the surroundings.
And what it saw left it speechless.
Lush green grasses stretched endlessly.
Vast plains rolled like waves.
Towering trees reached for the sky, their leaves shimring with an ethereal glow.
Crystal-clear rivers flowed, their waters humming with energy.
Floating mountains drifted in the sky, defying logic.
Everywhere it looked—
The world was alive.
But it wasn't just the scenery that stunned it.
It was—
The Essence.
"It's so… natural!"
The blob's form trembled, its eyes widening in pure shock.
Having lived in the world of Acaris for thousands of years,
It had grown accustod to that world's essence pressure.
But this world—
It was different.
It wasn't oppressive.
It wasn't chaotic.
It was pure.
It was nourishing.
The blob took a deep breath—
And felt sothing incredible.
Even without eating,
Even without absorbing treasures,
It could feel itself evolving.
Slowly but surely.
"This place is a heaven for spirits!"
It shouted in excitent. Read the latest on My Virtual Library Empire
It floated higher, its form expanding with joy.
"Even if a spirit doesn't eat anything…"
It exhaled, feeling the energy sinking into its very being.
"They can still evolve in this place!"
For the first ti in its existence—
The blob had found a place where its race could truly thrive.
And it couldn't help but wonder—
'Where the hell did Max send ?'
Just as the blob was marveling at the world and at Max,
A familiar voice echoed.
"Do you like this place?"
The blob spun around, its form trembling with excitent.
"Max!"
It rushed toward him, unable to contain its curiosity.
"What is this place?!"
Its eyes were wide, its liquid body shifting erratically from excitent.
"Even for , who has lived countless millennia," the blob continued,
"I have never seen anything like this place."
It paused, looking around in awe.
"It's like… this entire world was made for spirits like us."
The energy in the air, the natural essence, the purity of the atmosphere—
It was perfect.
It was miraculous.
Max smiled, his gaze sweeping over the breathtaking landscape.
"Well, it is one of a kind."
Then, he turned back to the blob with a casual tone—
"You can stay here for now."
His expression remained calm as he added—
"When I'm alone, I'll take you out."
"Wait—WAIT!"
The blob flailed, stopping Max before he could vanish.
"Tell first—WHAT is this place?!"
Its face was flushed with pure fascination.
It needed to know.
Max grinned.
"Maybe next ti."
His eyes glead mischievously.
"If I'm in the mood to explain, that is."
And before the blob could protest—
Max vanished.
Silence.
The blob remained frozen in the air, still processing everything.
Then—
It recalled sothing.
Sothing from a very, very long ti ago.
Its entire form trembled.
"This place… this world…"
A wild speculation ford in its mind.
And the more it thought about it,
The more shocked it beca.
"Could it be…?"
Its eyes widened.
Then—
It shook its head violently.
"No. No, I must be thinking too much."
It muttered to itself, trying to shake off the thought.
"That place… is just a myth."
But What If…?
It tried to convince itself.
"And there's no way it could be owned by a kid."
It let out a nervous laugh.
"Yeah… I must be thinking too much."
But deep inside—
A seed of doubt had already been planted.
And no matter how much it tried to deny it—
The truth was far more shocking than it could ever imagine.
