Last Ruler Of The Empty Throne-Chapter 120: Similar or Exact
The shaman chief was frozen in shock.
This was supposed to be a joyous day; the day they sacrificed this world to their homeland, and he joined them with a grand entrance with another life waiting for him.
However, the current sight was totally opposite of it.
With the way the corpses of the shamans were littered on the ground, some places with hills of corpses and the river of blood that had been formed, it truly looked like they were the ones being sacrificed instead.
And maybe because he was truly their leader or he was more experienced, he snapped off his shock earlier than the remaining shamans and assessed the situation.
’Person covered in blood, human?’ He could immediately tell the person covered in blood was a human and considering the weapon in his hand and the direction he was facing; he was likely the one who caused it.
And he looked at the other person.
Immediately, he bowed his head and trembled in excitement.
’H-Honored one’ As he said that in his head, he turned his head sharply to the remaining shamans.
"You are in the presence of an honored one, bow." His gaze immediately turned red as if he would kill anyone who wouldn’t comply.
And the shamans snapping out of their daze immediately bowed their heads until their heads where touching the ground. They didn’t try to ask or confirm it, after all their chief couldn’t lie about something like that.
’Since an honored one had come, everything should be handled now.’ The chief then returned to bowing as he thought of everything already settled. He didn’t bother about the dead shamans, they were already the sacrifices to bring out an honored one.
...
Now Jon had reached a state of calmness, he now begun to reason better and assess the situation. He wasn’t shocked at the progression of a second realm coming out, in fact he expected more to come since even now the portal hadn’t closed.
Now, he wanted to know about the people he just massacred. ’I think I have an idea of who they are, however just to be sure.’ After reading a lot of novel, their appearances were strikingly similar to a group he read about in the past.
"You...caused this."
Even after hearing the woman speak, he didn’t reply and used his gaze to read her emotions.
’Disgust...Annoyance?’ Jon was a bit confused at the emotions he was reading and what made it more confusing was the fact they weren’t aimed at him but the already dead shamans.
’As expected, a tribe that only see who to be sacrificed and who not to be.’ If before his guess was about 40%, it was now around 60%, however that wasn’t what he wanted to know.
What he wanted was information about them, about how they really were in real life. And at that moment his ’Mind world’ called his attention again.
’I know...’ he smiled at the thought of what his ’Mind world’ was about to tell him. The thing was, he already had a skill for this. It was one he got upon his entry into the first realm.
[’DREAM SCROLL’ (SECOND REALM) LEVEL 5: USING 3O POINTS OF MANA YOU CAN READ HISTORY OF AN OBJECT TO AN EXTENT
EFFECT: USING 50 POINTS OF MANA YOU CAN READ SPECIFIED MEMORY OF A TARGET]
After using it on his watch and getting almost no response, he didn’t use it again. However deep down he knew the skill was going to be off great use. And that time was already here.
’But I have to subdue her first.’ Though he was confident in killing the shaman, subduing was going to be harder.
"I asked you a question." The emotion of the shaman immediately turned into one of rage that was directed to him.
’Anger at me now...hmm’ He felt something in him stir. This was the first time he faced someone’s direct rage that literally emanated from them at him.
’So, this is it...’ In the information on ’principle of domain’ he learnt about the basis of creating domains. Some based theirs on rules and conditions, once a person falls into a certain situation, they could activate their domain and others based it on emotions as the conditions, when they felt a certain way, they could activate their domain.
This shaman woman didn’t have a domain, however from intent emanating from her, it was definitely that kind of emotion that could be turned into a domain. Now, it was only left to whether she could do it or not.
Luckily, it was a great help to Jon. ’So emotions, huh,’ Though he didn’t want to openly admit it, his bloodlust to was also perfect for forming one. However, he was still thinking of moral which was totally absurd for someone who massacred a group on his first week of the fall.
Basically, since he was already far from morals so why not just continue in that way, and he might even be able to then control his bloodlust, which could in turn be of great help.
’Hmm...’ Sensing movements, Jon instantly released his blue fog at the shaman.
And she was already at her limit, a first realm was ignoring her, it was already way past her tipping point.
"YOU WORM, Black-" However before she could finish calling her skill, she suddenly couldn’t speak again.
"Mhmhmmh." Without waiting and listening to her struggling voice, Jon reappeared to her front in a flash and then,
BANG
"Gahh..." With a heavy punch, the shaman mage couldn’t bear the pain and fainted with her eyes rolled back.
’What?’ Jon gasped at the result of his punch.
And thankfully he got an answer,
-That’s what I’m talking about you monster. Your physically abilities are already greater than the average second realm.
’Wait, wasn’t it recently I was struggling with a second realm...’ Even Jon was a stunned at his growth.
-Tell me how your stats look like.
’Well, my lowest stat is 510’ Now looking at his stats, he felt he was neglecting his agility. It was still in its early five hundred when his stamina was in its late six hundred, however Amelia didn’t think the same.
-Haa, that’s the problem. Stats at five hundred are already second realms and mages are particularly low on stats like that.
Amelia just kept shaking her head.
-So, what are you going to do now?
However, Jon didn’t reply immediately and focused on his task at hand. He placed his hand on the shamans head and spent 50 points of mana to activate his dream scroll.
And like a familiar feeling, he found himself in an ethereal space.
With wide eyes, he looked around with curiosity and confusion, apart from the one meter around him he only had access to, it was all similar to something.
And he couldn’t help but ask, "Is this the ’Mind world’?"
Looking up, he could see floating orbs and from their plain colors, he could tell they were her memories. It was the only thing in his ’Mind world’ he hadn’t checked.
’I should be quick.’ Though he was shocked at the sight, he had to hurry with what he wanted to do. If this was really like the ’Mind world’ like he said, the time difference was not something to joke with.
Since it was familiar, he already knew what to do. With a thought, he was suddenly floating up towards the memory orbs.
There was something especially special about the memory orbs in the ’Mind world’. It was the fact, one could call up specific memories they wanted to relive. And since this was very similar, he didn’t think it would be different.
’Memories about your kind, where you are from, how you came,’ He wasn’t interested in the shaman female herself, he wanted to confirm his thoughts he had been having and about their kind.
And just like he had expected, the memory orbs began shuffling and ten orbs appeared in front of him.
Just from looking at the orbs, he could see the highlight of the memory, and what he was looking for was at the front of the ten orbs.
Focusing on it, it was like he was now sucked into the memory.
’As I thought, they were the shamans.’
