Chapter 487 Chapter485-The Storm Subsides

?After successfully defeating the God of Curses, Ethan awoke from the nightmare's dreamland.

He first encountered the three individuals who had aided him and expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thank you very much for your assistance. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to resolve this crisis. Now, let's each go back and rest. The recent battle took a toll on us, and after all that we've been through, we're all quite exhausted. I, too, need a good rest."

Ethan concluded his words and chose to awaken from the Cursed Dreamland.

After successfully foiling the sinister plot of the God of Curses, Ethan wasted no time in seeking rest.

The burden on his shoulders during this period had been staggering, to say the least.

He had been under the constant influence of the God of Curses' malevolent spell, and it had taken its toll on him.

Ethan knew that if he didn't take a moment to recuperate, his condition would only deteriorate further.

The other three individuals, sharing in Ethan's exhaustion, followed suit and retreated to find solace in rest.

After all, in the past few days, they too had weathered a relentless storm of events.

Initially, the innkeeper had declared hostility towards Ethan and his companions, but eventually, he had chosen to collaborate with them.

Remarkably, the innkeeper had not harbored any ill intentions towards Ethan.

Ethan had rested in his room for a good part of the day, and it wasn't until the afternoon of the following day that he finally awoke.

Upon waking, he found himself gazing directly at the Shadow Elf, who was looking out of the window. Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

"The snowstorm outside has diminished significantly. It's possible that by tomorrow morning, the storm will have completely subsided. Once the storm is over, we should resume our journey. Despite the troubles we've encountered at this inn and the formidable adversaries we faced here, I believe the innkeeper and Prophet Magus have provided us with considerable assistance. Their collaboration with us has been quite effective. If possible, I would like us to extend our stay at this inn for a longer duration."

The Shadow Elf didn't need to turn around to know that Ethan had awakened.

So, without hesitation, the Shadow Elf candidly shared their thoughts with Ethan.

Shadow Elf's words held no inaccuracies.

The innkeeper had indeed shown a friendly demeanor towards Ethan at the outset, only turning adversarial due to the influence of the God of Curses.

Ultimately, the innkeeper had chosen to aid Ethan.

In response to Ethan's words, Prophet Magus's expression remained relatively unchanged.

Prior to their recent encounters, Prophet Magus had harbored disbelief in the existence of deities.

While he possessed a range of extraordinary abilities, he had regarded them as akin to magic.

Magi used magic for spellcasting, and in his view, he used the River of Destiny for prophecy.

Prophet Magus had never entertained the thought that the powers of shadow and the Power of Curse could manifest as tangible deities.

"Perhaps I can sum up my previous state with just one phrase: ignorance breeds fear. At that time, I truly didn't believe that deities existed in this world. I thought all powers were merely a part of nature. Who would have imagined that these forces could manifest as tangible deities? If I had known about the existence of the God of Curses earlier, I would not have been as courageous as I appeared to be."

"After all, I'm just an ordinary human, and challenging a deity was never in the cards for me. Unlike you all, I don't possess top-tier abilities or extensive knowledge. My only recourse was to rely on luck. Fortunately for me, luck has always been on my side. If there's nothing else to discuss, I suppose it's time to bid farewell, at least for now. I have a feeling our paths will cross again in the future, though by then, we may not know whether we'll be friends or foes."

After Prophet Magus finished speaking, he promptly departed.

Ethan understood the implications behind his words.

Most of what Prophet Magus had said could indeed come true, meaning that their future encounters might not be friendly ones.

However, Ethan didn't dwell too much on it.

The next time they crossed paths, it could be an unknown amount of time in the future.

Ethan planned to venture through the Glacial Peaks starting tomorrow.

Ethan and Shadow Elf bid farewell to the innkeeper once more.

The innkeeper's emotions were complex at this moment.

On one hand, she felt deep remorse, and on the other, she was filled with worry.

"I know my persuasion is unlikely to succeed, but I still hope you'll consider my advice. If you intend to traverse the Glacial Peaks, you will undoubtedly face significant risks. If you were my son, I would strongly advise against it."

"However, if you are determined to cross the Glacial Peaks, I can offer you some assistance. This map contains information about lesser-known locations within the Glacial Peaks. You can use it as a reference, although I cannot confirm its authenticity.

"After all, I have never ventured into the Glacial Peaks, and I cannot make precise judgments about maps brought by other adventurers. I simply believe it might be of some help to you."

The innkeeper produced a map, marked with various points within the Glacial Peaks.

Ethan glanced at the map briefly, accepted it with gratitude, but remained somewhat skeptical of its contents.

He didn't put too much trust in the markings on the map.
