Ding!
It seems I was only unconscious for a few hours, I spent all this time immersed in that lake, after that I managed to walk alone, but my body was aching as if Godzilla had danced Carnival on top of my body.
“Master, do you know how long it’s been since I’ve eaten something nutritious? It’s been months and I’m very hungry.” (Layla)
“Should do like me, devour the energy through his shadow, you can also do like Sakura and take it while he sleeps.” (Nix)
“Sakura does what?” (I)
“She is embarrassed to ask for your Ki, so she takes some while you sleep when she gets hungry, whereas I devour the surplus spiritual energy through her shadow, which is much easier for me.” (Nix)
“I’ll talk about it with her later, about you from her Evil Fairy, wait until tomorrow, I’m very tired now.” (I)
“But I’m with…” (Layla)
“I know you’re hungry, but that’s the most I can do for now.” (I)
With some difficulty I gather some mana in my hand and throw it to Layla who opened her mouth and sucked the mana like she was drinking water.
“I’d rather it had some pure element mixed in…” (Layla)
“Stop being greedy you little Devil, I almost couldn’t do it.” (I)
I keep walking outside and I see Leonardo along with several people from the Dungeon walking around carrying materials, there were also several earth element mages using their magic all over the place.
“What’s going on here?” (I)
“The people of the Dungeon wanted to help build the two Islands.” (Freya)
“Leonardo said he had designs he didn’t use in the city inside the Dungeon that could easily be used here.” (Freya)
“It seems that during our time helping the master in the bath, they quickly moved forward with the start of construction.” (Nix)
I look around realizing I’ve been walking down a simple hallway, plus it has walls everywhere, earth mages can shape stone into various shapes, they’ve made a simple structure to begin with, but that’s work that people from my world old one would need days or even weeks to make.
“(Magic is amazing.)” (I)
I walk past the workers greeting everyone, Leonardo doesn’t even pay attention to me, that Elf was too focused with the drawing in his hands for weeks to pay attention to me.
Another thing I noticed was Rakan talking to his subordinates close to Leonardo, they are probably creating a magical structure for this place.
Freya and Nix took me to the place where the Dungeon gate was open, there was a simple cabin there where High Priestess Yara was talking to Vanessa.
“Good morning to you two.” (I)
“You meant good afternoon, right?” (Vanessa)
I look at the sky and notice the position of the 3 Suns, it really was mid-afternoon, only now that I noticed that the clouds shyly covering this place and the fog disappeared.
“I hadn’t even noticed the sky until now, the pain in my entire body is already a big distraction, but my mind is also a little sluggish today after everything that’s happened.” (I)
“You were fortunate to survive, death energy corrodes life energy while life energy purifies death energy, the problem was the limitless amount of death energy around Henry.” (Yara)
“Your and Freya’s help was very helpful, but it wasn’t an urgent situation to risk your life like that.” (Yara)
“That seemed very urgent to me.” (I)
“What was going on at that moment anyway?” (I)
“I felt the energy and presence of nature almost alive trying to reject you and Henrique.” (I)
“I already expected this, we destroyed an entire environment, if it had taken too long to create a new environment, then a catastrophe would have fallen on our heads.” (Yara)
“Of course nature would register us after it had done such damage, it might take some time but everything would go well.” (Yara)
“But those explosions and ripples in space?” (I)
“That might seem a little scary, but it wouldn’t get any worse than that.” (Yara)
“So I… did all that for nothing…” (I)
“It wasn’t for nothing, it advanced the process by a few hours.” (Yara)
“It was very good for me, I was already tired at that moment, so I really appreciate the help.” (Yara)
“(I want to cry…)” (I)
———-
After talking for a while with High Priestess Yara I discovered several things that had changed while I was unconscious.
The first news is that the plan is a success, the Holy Land is already consecrated by the Goddesses, I’m sure none of these Realms will want to get involved in conflicts from now on.
The second novelty was that the Priests used Evil Seeds and the power of their Goddesses to create a Dungeon that will serve as a test for the devotees of the two Goddesses.
I was taken to the space in the middle of the two islands which is right in the middle of this big lake, there I saw a big statue of two Ladies wearing a veil, one wearing a white veil and the other one wearing a gray veil.
The statue of the two was only from the waist up, they were side by side, each slightly facing one of the islands while their cupped hands were close to the ground with a black liquid in the hands of one and a white liquid in the hands of the other.
It even looked like two medium-sized pools in those big hands, to get to them there were stairs, for one they were stairs full of vines and for the other they were stairs made of bones.
That statue was a little far from the two islands being on a small island in the middle, I could see some Minotaurs and Ghouls working on building two bridges that will connect this small island with the other two.
“This is the Dungeon of Life and Death, it has two entrances to two completely different parts of the Dungeon that meet in the middle of the Dungeon.” (Yara)
“Why did you create a Dungeon?” (I)
“That was the will of our Goddesses, they wanted a place of pilgrimage for the talented young people of our two religions to test themselves.” (Yara)
“The Goddesses will also be able to test those qualified for their blessings.” (Yara)
“From now on young people of our two religions will come together here to train, study and gain life experience, a true Holy Land.” (Yara)
“(I hadn’t thought about what those two Religions would do with this Holy Land, but I guess it doesn’t matter in the end, it’s not my problem.)” (I)
“I’ll stay here for a few days resting if it’s not too much trouble, if the others want to continue helping with the construction for you, then negotiate between yourselves.” (I)
“You who helped create this place and have the Blessing of the Goddess of Life Mavis, you are always welcome.” (Yara)
“I have Blessing from whom!?” (I)
“(I don’t remember having such a Blessing, if it turns out there’s a notification I’ve been ignoring since I woke up…)” (I)
