Capítulo 1047: Chapter 776: Arrival at Ruby Mountain (Part 2)
The necromancer turned to look at Ash and shook his head: “If you add a few more decorative chains, it might look cooler.”
Igula spread his hands to Ash, who hung his head in sha and admitted: “Seems like my aesthetic judgnt is indeed broken.”
“Has Alice recovered?”
“She’s basically recovered. She just needs so sunlight, otherwise she might have osteoporosis.”
The group sat around the coffin, with only the sound of Harvey trimming his nails breaking the silence.
A few minutes later, Ash asked, “Don’t you guys have anything to do?”
“Do you want to watch the afternoon drama?” Igula asked.
“I actually have sothing a bit awkward to discuss with you,” Ash said, not sounding awkward at all, “When I et the Sword Maiden, can you guys avoid us for a bit?”
Harvey paused, surprised, and asked, “Aren’t you planning to introduce her to us?”
“Of course, but at least for our first date, I don’t want to spoil the atmosphere.”
“How would we spoil the atmosphere?”
Ash looked at Harvey, who was holding Alice’s hand from the coffin, “… There’s no help for it, given that you’re breathing.”
Harvey: “Actually, I can stop breathing…”
“Alright,” Igula interrupted, “During that ti, Harvey and I will be in the Void Realm, lingering in the Distant Realm for about three to four hours. That should be enough ti for you two, right?”
“Not really, but I’m willing to make a concession for your sake,” Ash chuckled, “As a thank-you… Ah, I’ve already given you my thanks.”
“Huh?”
“Don’t you rember? In the Heavenly Kingdom of Thousand Wishes, I had the awakening divine being bestow a wonder upon you,” Ash said, “It’s the Wonder: Delayed Awakening, which will trigger as soon as you enter the Void Realm.”
“In simple terms, you will, like , trigger the Faded Dream and directly exit the Distant Realm to climb Ruby Mountain!”
Igula and Harvey had used the cursed Seven-colored Tail Feather to bypass the Holy Domain threshold and climb directly to the Distant Realm. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to advance from Two-winged Mage to Three-winged Mage in just a few months.
But as a price, they couldn’t establish a connection channel with the fourth layer of the Void Realm, aning even if they ever advanced to the Legendary Magic Realm, they couldn’t summon even a single Four-winged Technique Spirit, nor open the Gate of Truth to Ruby Mountain.
Once Ash gained the awakening divine being, he was always thinking about how to help them bypass this curse. Delayed Awakening was the task he left for Little Dream, and he didn’t expect the divine being to possess such strong subjective initiative, creating a wonder on its own.
Fortunately, after entering the Heavenly Kingdom of Thousand Wishes, Ash imdiately had Little Dream cast Delayed Awakening on the two, or else Igula and Harvey’s advancent would have waited until Ash’s next return to the Heavenly Kingdom of Thousand Wishes.
The swindler and the necromancer were so stunned by this news that they didn’t react imdiately. Ash urged, “Since we have ti now, you should ascend to Legendary right away. I’ll keep watch outside for you, and then we can switch shifts.”
Last night only Ash entered the Void Realm, with Igula and Harvey on guard duty; now it was Ash’s turn to watch, letting Igula and Harvey enter the Void Realm.
“Ash, you…” Igula opened his mouth, but surprisingly he couldn’t utter a word.
“Rember to say hello to the ruby angel for ,” Ash smiled, “Our biggest regret is reaching the top of Ruby Mountain but not seeing the legendary angel.”
The two said nothing, imdiately closing their eyes to connect with the Void Realm.
Ash, anwhile, opened “Aurora’s Mage Manual” to “Operators Managent,” closely watching the changes in the “Faded Dream Secret Poison.”
After a mont, he saw the infection count of Faded Dream Secret Poison increase from 10 to 12 people!
“Faded Dream Secret Poison”
“Secret Poison Infected Count: 12”
“Secret Poison Enhancent Level: 12%”
“Current Effect of Secret Poison: ① You can convert Seven-colored Magic Power into Primary Colored Magic Power with a conversion ratio of 62:38; ② When you use Primary Colored Magic Power to command Technique Spirits below four-winged, you can achieve four-winged equivalent effects; ③ While possessing this secret poison, all your colorless magic power will transform into primary colored magic power, and the sa-colored Technique Spirits will be enhanced. (Enhancent level reaching 51% turns negative, falling to 10% gains massive benefits).
Ash compared and noticed that the Faded Dream Secret Poison no longer reduced magic power consumption and the conversion ratio decreased slightly, but it was still acceptable.
Fortunately, the reduction in the poison’s potency wasn’t too excessive, otherwise, he wouldn’t know how to explain it to the Sword Witch, as the zero-sum ga chanism of the poison ans others gaining equals them losing.
At that mont, Igula and Harvey almost simultaneously opened their eyes, exchanging glances with very grim expressions.
Igula said, “We couldn’t get into Ruby Mountain.”
“What?”
“I triggered the Faded Dream, and the entire Distant Realm started breaking apart,” Harvey said. “But the next second, we were forcibly expelled from the Void Realm, back to reality, without ever entering Ruby Mountain.”
“How could this be?” Ash murmured, “Clearly, we triggered the Faded Dream Secret Poison and directly reached the top of Ruby Mountain—”
“Because you weren’t cursed by the Seven-colored Tail Feather,” Igula calmly said, “We couldn’t establish our connection channel with the fourth layer of the Void Realm, aning we might not be able to establish our Gate of Truth with Ruby Mountain.”
