Chapter 1124: Gate of The Separati, A Faint Connection



"The Lightning Soldier was lucky that it managed to cross this room without any harm coming to it. No, I doubt it was by luck alone. It seemed to understand the dangers of the sphere and kept its distance after successfully crossing. Most likely, it waited until the sphere was in a calm state before making its move.'

It did not take long for Izroth to notice that the destructive space in the room would calm down significantly when the sphere was not showing signs of bending and warping. Although the window of time was brief, it was more than enough for a Lightning Soldier to their way

across.

'For a weapon that does not possess an Immortal Persona, I can not help but be impressed by the intelligence of the Lightning Soldiers and Sagarus.'

Of course, Izroth also inspected the sphere using his Deep Insight and Appraisal skills. Name: ???(???)-> Gate of The Separati (Relic) [Appraised]

Usage: ???

[System Alert: [2] Flaws have been discovered in <<Gate of The Separati»>!

[System Alert: Flaw [1]: If not regularly maintained, this item may lose control and wreak havoc on the surrounding space.[]

[System Alert: Flaw [2]: This item is close to a state of losing control.

'Oh? A relic? It's my first time seeing one in the Mortal Realm.'

From what Izroth understood about relics, they were similar to magic items; however, their production methods seemed to differ. Magic items also contained high levels of concentrated mana and magic, while relics did not use mana or magic as their source of power.

Additionally, relics were not separated by ranks in the same way that magic items were despite some effects clearly being more powerful or useful than others.

That being said, Izroth had not done much research into relics since it had not been that long since he obtained some for himself back in the Ancient Celestial Realm.

In the blink of an eye, Izroth arrived back near the entrance of the room. He managed to escape from the sphere's grasp. And, not even half a breath later, the bends and warps once again formed around the sphere.

"That feeling... It was brief, but I'm sure of it.'

Just now, there was a brief look of surprise that flashed through Izroth's eyes when he touched the sphere. While the sphere's intense reaction was great, Izroth had already anticipated that something would happen if he touched such an unstable item.

The reason behind that brief look of surprise was what he felt upon making contact with the sphere.

"For a split moment, I could sense them through the Soul Link. Empyrean and Selene-they may be somewhere on the other side of that sphere."

Even though it was for less than a second, Izroth felt the Soul Link he had with Empyrean and Selene, although very faintly, reconnect.

'It looks like I will have to delay my plans to destroy this place. At least until I can find out what this sphere has to do with Empyrean's and Selene's disappearance.'

If it was due to the effects of a relic, it was no wonder why Empyrean's Innate Anti-Magic Body had no effect. Still, the last time Izroth saw Empyrean, he had grown much stronger. Without a doubt, Empyrean's strength had increased since then. He was by no means weak and had several methods at his disposal.

If Empyrean was somehow trapped on the other side of the sphere with Selene and could not break through, it would mean that this sphere was nothing to scoff at and could not be taken lightly.

'It's a shame Void Turning is still on cooldown; otherwise, I could let myself get pulled in and get them out. I have yet to test if I can take others through Void Turning with me, but since they are both directly connected to me, there's a high chance that it will work. The problem is the quest time limit-how troublesome.'

Izroth's Void Turning had a 24-hour cooldown and it would not be off cooldown any time

soon.

Unfortunately, the S-ranked quest To Dream of Being Divine had an eight-hour time limit. 'It would be a shame to fail an S-ranked quest, but worst case scenario, I can just give up on it. In the end, I would only be giving up three levels and some world fame. Compared to ensuring Empyrean and Selene's safety, it's a small price to pay.'

There was also the matter of the Mad Alchemist Polkentin considering him an enemy. But, so what? The two were bound to cross paths as enemies one day. Izroth had no problem with that

day being a little sooner.
