Chapter 534 NELLAS INGLORION

"I will talk about my condition later. Let me focus on finding a cure for Cathy."

"But... I already found the cure."

Veronica, Ovior and Ironin turned to look at her. In the next second, Veronica jumped to her feet.

"Cure? What cure? Where did you find it?" she asked. Her heart was thumping loudly.

"I was also reading a few scrolls," Urulas explained. He showed a scroll that was in his hand. "I found in this scroll that we have to take the dead body to Nellas Inglorion, the immortal lake and the body has to be covered in the Isilwen Tinúviel plant."

Veronica snatched the scroll and read what was written there. It was the exact same as what Urulas mentioned.

Ovior came over and read it too.

"What is Isilwen Tinúviel plant? What can it do?" he asked.

Urulas answered, "Isilwen Tinúviel is a sacred plant. It relieves pain or any injury. Legend says that this plant has the ability to suck any injury or disease and cure any living creature.

"But I never knew it could cure dead people. If only I knew before..."

He paused there, lamenting silently. His beloved's face flashed in his memory.

He wouldn't be leading a lonely life if he had found this scroll long before. She would be alive and would live a glorious life.

However, no one had the time to understand what he was feeling.

"Where can we find the plant?" Ovior required.

"In the immortal lake," Urulas answered.

Veronica stared at the scroll. Her heart was shaking.

"The immortal lake... where is it?" she inquired.

Urulas calculated and then said, "Nellas Inglorion is situated in the middle of our realm. That's a five-day journey if we don't stop in between."

"We can't wait that long!"

Veronica wanted to scream. She helplessly looked at Ovior.

"I can send us there," Ovior said. "But I don't have a teleportation stone. I need to draw the magical circle here."

Veronica bent down and quickly shoved the scrolls away from the floor, making room for him. Urulas and Ironin helped her.

When the floor was cleared, Ovior drew a magical circle and wrote some ancient language.

Afterward, everyone gathered and stepped inside the circle. Ovior then brought a coffin.

He looked at Urulas and told him, "I need your memory of the place we are going to. So, I will have to hold your hand. Only then, I can take everyone there."

"Sure," Urulas calmly agreed. He closed his eyes and took a trip down memory lane. A huge lake came into his vision.

Ovior held his hand. After that, he recited a spell and the drawn lines illuminated with purple light.

Together, they disappeared from Veronica's house.

When they opened their eyes, they found themselves inside a cave. The cave was supposed to be the darkest place on earth since sunlight couldn't penetrate its depths.

Inside the cave, though, was a sizable lake. The water in the lake wasn't like other water. In the shadows, it was shining. It's possible that the water included an unidentified mineral that made it glow in the darkest areas.

That was it.

Nellas Inglorion.

"Okay, no visitors come here, so you will be safe on your own. We will find a way to get some water and food," Urulas stated.

"Can't we drink the lake water?" Ovior asked.

Urulas sternly shot daggers at him.

"You MUST not. This is not something a mere human like you can touch."

No matter how much he got along with Veronica, he was always hostile toward humans, especially wizards.

"We are not drinking even a drop of water from here," Veronica firmly confirmed. "We must respect this land. We are here for my selfish reason and we can revive Cathy, I have nothing more to ask. We mustn't be too greedy."

Afterward, they began their search for an exit while she stayed near the lake, sitting and waiting.

They found a small hole covered by the floral bushes. It was enough to fit a grown man.

Ironin wordlessly took the first step. After he disappeared behind the hole, there was no sound.

"Ironin, is this a way out?" Ovior inquired from the side of the lake.

After a while, Ironin gave an answer, "Yes."

Trusting his answer, Ovior went to the other side through the hole. Urulas tagged along.

After they were gone, the silence came upon the cave.

Veronica hugged her legs and placed her chin on her knees. She blankly stared at the lake where Catherine's body was floating.

Her vision slowly became blurry and she started to see a faint light coming from under the lake.

Her mind was empty. That's why she didn't react to it immediately.

A few seconds had passed.

Finally, it was drawn to her that she was seeing something she wasn't expecting to see.

She abruptly stood up and intently stared at the light.

The light was growing stronger and stronger. It was a silver light.

It wasn't anywhere close to Catherine's dead body. That was why Veronica was certain that the light had nothing to do with Catherine.

Eventually, the light came to the surface. It then shaped into a human form.

The light was too bright to keep staring at it.

Veronica had never seen anything as holy as this light.

She felt her knees become weak. She lowered herself to the ground. Her head was down. She couldn't stare at the light.

After some time, she heard a gentle voice.

"Child, what is your purpose here?"

Veronica couldn't figure out whether it was a man or a woman upon hearing the voice. Despite her curiosity, she couldn't raise her head.

"I... I want to... save my family."

She replied with a shaky voice.

She didn't know why she was feeling so nervous.

The presence in front of her was just too strong. She felt like she was nothing compared to the being that was in front of her right now.

"Family? The dead being?"
