Soti after Nemo disappeared through the temple gates, Idan and the others heard the announcent.
They were all looking forward to Nemo's return to find out what was inside. However, instead, the first thing they heard was an announcent that reverberated throughout Limbo.
This announcent caused everyone to be surprised.
"The voice of the world?" — Esma asked, glancing at Sierra.
"No, it's not the voice of the world, but sothing very similar to it," Sierra replied, and at that mont she noticed that all eyes were on her.
Sierra could already guess why everyone was staring at her so intently.
She sighed softly and said that outside of Limbo in Junonia, it was very rare to hear sothing like what they had just heard. It was a worldwide announcent, which those who know call the "Voice of the World." And you can hear it only in very rare cases.
"If this is not the voice of the world, then what is it?" asked Eulalia, who, although she had lived longer than the couple, had never heard sothing like this before.
"Who knows? Although it is very similar to the voice of the world and its purpose. But this is definitely not the voice of the world! I personally heard the voice of the world, and believe , the feeling of the true voice of the world is completely different than this one," Sierra assured the others that it was not the voice of the world, but sothing just similar.
Everyone believed Sierra's words.
Esma just made sure it wasn't the voice of the world. As an avatar, she had the mories of the real Esmari, who had personally heard the voice of the world, but despite this, she could not determine whether it was the true voice of the world or sothing else.
[Ding! The second task of the World Quest — to help your champion get the key and the clue leading to one of the five "Thrones of the World Kings" — has been successfully completed!]
[Ding! The reward for completing the second task of the "World Quest" will be given after your return to your ho world!]
[Ding! The first and second tasks of the "World Quest" are completed!]
[Ding! The third task is given — to get to Junonia!]
One by one, Idan and Arabel heard an announcent from the System about completing the second task of the World Quest and finally receiving the third task, which requires them to get out of Limbo and get to Junonia.
Idan and Arabel both blinked as they reread the ssages from the System, waiting for Nemo to appear.
Soon Nemo ca out of the Haram and walked slowly towards them, and only then did everyone notice that the barrier preventing them from entering the square had disappeared. Everyone imdiately rushed to et Nemo.
Geminia, the Guardian of the Temple, did not disappear, but stood in the center of the square with a smile, watching the group. She also heard the announcent and imdiately felt the rule changes in Limbo and, in particular, the rule changes in her own territory.
"You... you did it!" exclaid Eulalia, running up to Nemo first. Finally releasing her doppelganger, she hugged Nemo tightly, making him groan painfully.
"Oh! Sorry! I'm sorry!" — realizing her mistake, which she made in a fit of excitent, Eulalia quickly released Nemo. It was only now that she realized that his wounds hadn't healed yet, and with her strong embrace, she could only make his condition worse.
Kitty, the little beast, who had already assud her usual kitten form, looked at Eulalia with displeasure because of her actions.
Realizing that a tedious conversation was about to begin, Kitty, noticing her master, jumped off Nemo's shoulder and walked with quick steps towards Coco. At this ti, Coco was stealthily taking pictures of the group, imagining how these photos would turn into candy.
Everyone imdiately noticed that Nemo was not in a good mood, despite the fact that he had successfully completed the trial.
"What happened?" — Arabel Nemo asked.
Nemo, looking at everyone, sighed and, having established a ntal link with everyone, openly told them about everything that happened after he entered the Temple gates. He described eting with the echo of consciousness, which confird that it was it that created this ordeal. He also ntioned a key that would help him overco the upcoming trials and leave this world, as well as a crystal of knowledge that would explain everything he needed about the upcoming trials and how to use the key.
Everyone who listened to Nemo's story was amazed and held their breath. Sierra and Esma were especially surprised when they heard this news.
They imdiately realized that the echo of consciousness that Nemo was talking about was most likely left by one of the World's Kings, who hid his "Throne" behind these trials. And now, having passed this trial, Nemo has beco one of the candidates for the "Throne" of one of the five World Kings.
If this news spread beyond Limbo, all the most powerful of this world would co for Nemo.
Sierra and Esma realized how important this information was and how dangerous it could be for Nemo.
Sierra and Esma, being representatives of the higher realm, were well aware of why dungeons attract so many people, including those from the higher realms.
Everyone, without exception, was looking for traces of the long-lost "Throne," and all the clues pointed to these seven mysterious dungeons that had suddenly appeared. However, even after all this ti, not a single piece of evidence has been found to confirm that the "Throne" is located here.
Who would have thought that the key to the missing "Throne" would be hidden here in Limbo?
Sierra and Esma took a deep breath.
"Everyone, listen carefully," Sierra addressed the audience.
"From now on, don't say a word about the Throne to anyone. It's better not to discuss what happened here at all!"
"Yes, don't tell anyone about what happened here!" — Esma supported, joining Sierra's warnings.
"As you've already heard, this 'Throne' is related to the so-called five World Kings! And, probably, that Echo of consciousness that Nemo was talking about was left by one of these Kings!"
"Yes, yes," Esma confird Sierra's words.
"You must understand that even the slightest rumor that Nemo has a key leading to one of these "Thrones" will cause a real storm in Junonia, and without exception, all the powerful of this world will co after him to take away, steal this key from him!"
These words greatly shocked everyone without exception. Even Nemo himself felt the weight of the value he had gained by passing this trial.
