Chapter 280: Saria

Chapter 280: Saria

Can I see Saria? Is she here?! Sofia pressed the sweating dragon for answers.

Uh Yes but not really. You can see her, and shes here but Hmm You see

Get to the point kid.

Zephir was looking for a way out, but there was none, he reluctantly gave up, Argh whatever, what are my secrets worth anyway Shes much further down, come, Ill explain on the way,

What have you done to the girl, Zephir?

Ill explain everything alright. Shes fine, just Unavailable at the moment.

Zephir sighed and walked to the door, This way Now how to explain this The system grants some people special classes. Classes of which the concepts originate from the heroes worlds. Saria has such a class, and so do a lot of the members of this sect. I seek them out, nurture them, help them grow, try to understand how their classes came to be, how they can be used. The admins have created them, perhaps on a whim, or perhaps with a greater purpose, either way, my goal is to help these people, and hopefully help myself.

Erredis looked somewhat intrigued, but Sofia was the one to pursue the conversation, Your class is one of these too?

Zephir turned back to look at Sofia while he answered, Yes. And its caused me all kinds of issues. But lets not make this about me. Saria is currently training and helping two of us with their class as well, its a whole situation.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.

Then why is she unavailable? Surely she can stop her training

You obviously know about the fake worlds of the trials, right? Zephir started, I have never been in one, but essentially, one of our members class allows him to, uh Host such worlds. And Saria is currently in one.

Is she stuck inside?!

No, no, dont worry, your sister is safe, as I said. She will be able to come out When the skill runs out In 63 days So if you dont mind waiting two more months

Can you not cancel the skill? Erredis chimed in.

Then just win? Erredis deadpanned. Am I right? Just win and youre both out, your sister also gets the benefits. Easy enough. Ill be on the outside making sure there are no shenanigans involved.

The elevator stopped.

Its not even that much of a selfish request What he really wants is for me to help train Saria I dont really want to wait more but He does make some good arguments if everything he says is true. Erredis seems to see no issues either

Ill think about it Ill- Ill decide when I get there.

I will not blame you if you cannot wait. I know I probably couldnt, in a similar situation And I know Saria, she probably wouldnt either. Zephir admitted. If she knew you were alive, she would have dropped everything to find you. In fact, you are much calmer than she would be.

I have had some time to accept the fact that she was still alive. I passed out when I first learned about it in the tower

You learned about it in the tower? Right, I never heard your side of the story, you can share that with everyone in the inner disciples if you want, Im sure everyone would be interested. You can join us if you want Or rather, welcome, because I have no doubts Saria will want you to stay.

I-... One thing at a time

Right, right My apologies, either way, you are free to do as you please here. Now, let us go see your sister.

Zephir led Sofia and Erredis to a door covered in runes which he activated and opened. Behind was a long room bathed in blue light, a few people in white were roaming around with weird objects and notepads, they were monitoring big glass columns containing people floating around in a clear liquid. At the very far end of the room was one young boy sitting on a huge mechanical chair, with a metallic contraption strapped on his head, linked to countless cables leading into the ceiling. The place immediately reminded Sofia of the boss room in Zangdars castle. Her eyes scanned the people in the columns one by one, they all wore the same kind of dark, skin-adhering attire, which looked a bit like the anti-ebb armor from Nicet.

Sofias eyes stopped on a column near the end of the room. A slender and tall woman floated inside. Her face was serene, her eyes closed, her long golden locks were peacefully undulating behind her.

Saria!

Sofia ran to the container, paying no mind to the bewildered people in white.
