Chapter 179: Backfire!

Chapter 179: Backfire!

Geth heard an exasperated sigh from inside of his mind.

"Welcome back," Albus said.

Confused, Geth tried to get his bearings. He'd barely opened his eyes before Albus spoke again.

"You don't have time to waste! Get up and get to the Dungeon entrance!"

Geth sat up quickly, a wave of grogginess trying to keep him from moving. It felt like he'd had a few too many drinks.

His vision was slightly blurred, and his head was pounding. He could feel a massive weight on his legs.

Shaking his head wildly, his recovery swiftly took care of the drunken feeling. His sight returned to normal, and he looked to see what was weighing him down.

A massive black dog was sitting on his lap. Seeing the giant pup, he realized what the liquid dripping off of his face was.

"Bleh!"

Geth wiped away the saliva that was partially blocking his vision and hearing. Even his ears hadn't escaped the drizzle.

"Quit dawdling! Your seven minutes are almost up!"Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

"Seven minutes?"

Geth instantly recalled everything that had happened as multiple of his selves appeared inside his mental sphere.

"Shit!"

He looked around the battlefield and found that almost all his party members were passed out nearby. There were four that were still standing.

Sindri, Blaze, Peter, Felix, and Bane were assailing the monstrous Weary Wolf. The bodies of the patroling wolves were nowhere to be found.

What struck Geth as odd was that the Weary Wolf wasn't fighting back. In fact, it looked as if it were unconscious!

Albus stroked his beard, "Something else happened while you were asleep. At some point during your little nap, Mana started flowing rapidly into your body.

The Mana force summoned your Direwolf Pup and also made some other changes.

It all accumulated just outside of your mental sphere and... well... it may be better just to show you."

Albus beckoned for Geth to follow and the two of them made their way toward where his Tame's spheres were located. He hadn't been here since before he handed off his spare Skeleton Cards.

When the two of them arrived, he was met with a strange sight. Where he expected to see two mental spheres, there were three.

Bane's mental sphere was massive! It had grown much larger than the last time he'd compared it to the other Skeleton's.

The Direwolves sphere located right beside it wasn't too far off. Even though the pup was only Level 1, it was apparent how great its potential was.

The tunnels leading to each of these mental spheres weren't extremely long. At most, the length of the connecting branch was about a tenth of the diameter of his own sphere.

It was the new presence that caused him to scrunch his brows. To the left of his Tames, another path existed.

This path didn't have an information pad next to it and seemed to be locked up tight.

Unlike Geth's Tames, whose pathways were open to allow for communication, this one was sealed and much smaller than the others.

Not only that, it was as long as the entire diameter as his outer sphere! The distance was so far that he had to fly out and travel the path to see what was at the end.

Geth swiftly followed the long tunnel, making his way to the end in no time. In his own mind, he was nigh omnipotent.

What he saw at the end of the tunnel didn't make any sense. A very tiny mental sphere was attached at the very end.

It was pitch black, with a dark shroud surrounding it. Even the latter half of the tunnel was covered by a dark mist.

The mental sphere itself was no larger than a basketball! The tunnel itself made Geth think of something that a mouse would crawl through.

Looking at the small dark mental sphere, he couldn't help but picture the little black Slime.

'Just what was that dream?'
