Chapter 1364

“We are out of time, so I will send you the lore now. As soon as the blessing attaches to your soul, then that king will realize that something is wrong. You must summon your soul immediately. You must pull it away from him. Do you understand?”

I nodded. “I do.”

“Good. Then I will begin.”

She held up her hand, and then a small orb began to form. It wasn’t much different from the countless dungeon cores I had seen before. It slowly took on a form of its own, light ebbing off it in waves. It also seemed to have darkness mixed into it. It reminded me of the god core, a mixture of light and dark. As it formed, it began to rise off her palm. Then, with a wave, the orb went and struck my hip.

I gasped as I felt the familiar pain of information being bound to my soul. It lasted only for a second, and then there was a flash. I was back in the wet and the cold. It was dark and it stunk like rot. I was covered in even more black gunk than before. After what she had told me, I realized that this must be the real world, the world outside her lore. This was where my body was.

“Master.” I squinted as a form approached. “Master, you need to take my hand.”

The form slowly came out of the dark, and I could finally make out Terra. She reached out her hand to me. I was confused as to why she was there. However, she was my woman. She was my slave. I trusted her. My hand tried to reach out to her, but it was restrained. I began to push and pull.

“Master, please, there isn’t enough time! It’s now or never!” She cried out, looking terrified.

“AhhhHh!” I ripped free and threw my hand to her, just barely touching her fingertip.

“Gaia... she’s been guiding me.” Terra blushed. “She’s ready now.”

“Ready?”

“She’s ready to talk to Master.”

“I’m going to talk to the lifestream now?”

At this point, why not?

“She will need to speak through me. I’m sorry, it’s happening ah... aahhh...” Her head went up and her body jerked like she was in pain.

“Terra?”

Her eyes turned a piercing bright green, and her hand began to change into shades of blue and green. She looked down on me, her face expressionless.

“Hello, traveler.” Her voice came out with multiple tones, like a chorus of people all speaking at once.

I didn’t even need to ask at this point. “Hello, Gaia.”
