Disconnected Chapter 36: Shadows Beneath the Glitters (pt.1)
“Yay! Sadge loves her name!”Swishing his tail in celebration, Cherry flinched a bit, startled by the movement as the young wyrm finally emerged from his hiding place. Amidst all that had transpired, she barely registered the fact that Pam was using her hair as cover from her ancestor’s... consciousness fragment.“Well, it seems so. Above all, you've helped us calm her down, Pam-min. Thank you.”Once Pam returned to his favorite perching spot, Serein's arm, he was instantly rewarded with another head pat from his little human. Enjoying the attention, the greenish-blue hatchling almost let out a purr before catching himself, grinning smugly at them instead, feeling rather accomplished.“I think I've unlocked my elemental power too! Ceva-chi would be so proud hehe~ Now I’m on par with my brother as well!”Happily bragging, though someone didn't seem as celebratory. Instead, a gloomy voice emerged.“Brother…” The Sage sounded sorrowful this time. The edges of her smile slowly lowered as

As the glowing presence smiled, Serein heard another cryptic remark, "It’s been a while since I last saw him… I couldn’t even comfort her or their family upon the loss. But, it’s nice that I could have this chance to fight alongside the descendant of my old comrade." She smiled before her image was absorbed into the jewel that Serein carried. All the riches were absorbed into the staff, which then transformed into a dull-looking, inconspicuous bracelet.With both items now resting on Serein's hand and wrist, the room was left empty except for old broken chests and a slumped skeleton.Only then did she realize that no one had moved from their place—neither Pam’s chirps nor Cherry’s startled noises were heard during the profound interaction with the Sage earlier.The silence was broken by Pam’s high-pitched shriek as he looked around, “Everything is gone! Kapoof!! Where did they go?? Sparkly sparkly things went missing—KYAK! Sadge turned back into a boring skull! Oh no! She’s broken!”

“Yes, that item. There’s no one else recorded to own that Archaic Relic other than The Great Sage. So, I figured that I’d find it here– though I did not find any books around when we first arrived.” Granted, she only skimmed over with her eyes and did not even look around properly just yet when things escalated in a matter of seconds. She was even sure that their bizarre interaction with the Great Sage only lasted for less than half an hour or so. “Right, uh… there’s only one Archaic Relic that my family owns as an heirloom. I have never known any record that mentioned other relics to be in our possession, so…” ‘Well, clearly not.’ After all, she basically cheated on this knowledge, as Min Suhyun was the one who wrote about the existence of this world and its minutiae. Not to mention, this relic was not supposedly included ever, as the ability of this notebook was not suitable for fighting or defending. Its importance in the original draft she wrote only amounted to as much as the

‘A contract with {Space}...?’— It also mentioned something about a trace of ‘another one of us.’‘Does it mean another spirit? Another Archaic Relic? Or… another ancient item?’In the midst of confusion, she could only hope that it was one of the guesses she made. Because honestly, she's out of wits at this point.Far too tired to extend her imagination just to figure out exactly what the spirit meant.So, rather than straining her brain further, she chose to ask whether she could make a contract with the spirit or not.To which, much to her delight, the spirit did not dilly-dally and simply smiled at her—- a mysterious smile that gave her stomach a light churn, but it was not a ‘no’ either.“There's a price for your prize. My tales aren’t affordable, and I shall get my remuneration for every session. But first."The spirit paused, its theatrics full of dramatization befitting an ancient being."The contract itself costs your sense of taste. Are you willing to sacrifice it?”This tim

‘Come on now, it shouldn’t be that bad… I mean, I can help Cevahir-min walk by supporting him with my arm–’True, Cevahir was part of the draconic race, highly revered among mankind and all other living races.There wouldn’t be any negative repercussions attached to her name for assisting someone of dragon-blood. In fact, if Gil were to report this to the crown or swear upon his knighthood that she did aid a member of the draconic race, she might be forgiven for taking more of the Dragon Lord’s elixir for herself.In all honesty, this was precisely why she didn't fear any punishment if discovered. She not only stole from the secret safe but also used every drop of the elixir in her possession.Because Gil, her knight, was alive, he could testify on her behalf that it was used to aid a supreme being. Perhaps, it would be her only salvation.As a princess, she couldn’t casually touch any men. Even the slightest physical contact with anyone outside her maids in propriety would stir enoug

- Clang clang!Metals grinded against each other as the gates of the cage moved on their own as if they had their own will.Closed as soon as they all entered the secluded space, there was a soft sound coming from under her feet as Cherry could sense another rune magic being activated and surrounding the cage.- Whoooosh The sound of the wind enveloped the area as a whirlwind formed under the cage and soon moved the whole thing with the three of them inside upwardsThe ceiling above them cracked open and moved away in chunks as if making a path for the rising cage to the surface.“Ooooh~! This is fun!”Pam sounded rather giddy as the lift rode its way above.“I can't agree more with you, Pam-min.”Quite awed as well, the stunned pink-haired mage watched with fascination as she praised the Great Sage for this innovative idea to move people and items at the same time.‘Such a marvelous concept!’As a matter of fact, witnessing how magnificent all of this rune magic was, made her quite

It wasn’t hard to understand what’s all of this about now that she had heard enough. Serein wanted to speak; wanted to tell the spirit that she’s not planning to be what he had feared. However, she wasn’t able to mention it fast enough when the other continued.{I’ve been watching over you ever since you arrived at this place.}Finally stopping his agitated movements, the spirit actually faced Serein as he spoke of what he had seen.{I admit that you have great knowledge about the past events, coupled with the courage of the hero that I assume you've been idolizing and wishing to be. You are indeed excellent. Despite that, I do dislike how you are too willing to sacrifice all of that like a brainless mongrel that has no goal in life.}He pointed out her mistake with a resentful stare. Despite the unclear face she’s seeing, Serein could feel the spirit's judging gaze being aimed at her as he said,{Comradeship is beautiful and all, but would it all be worth it if you died there and the

Going after something— Anything, that could potentially help her in any way to get through these new circumstances she’s stuck in. “I came here hoping that I could get some closure by obtaining your current vessel. Due to how I heard and did some research myself about how you, or more specifically, your vessel, the [Notebook of Certitude] should have kept confidential information about the world.” That living soul couldn’t see the spirit’s face. But, she could feel the other being piqued at the mention. It might have even felt something akin to praise if she were to assume. Therefore she continued, “As you have mentioned earlier, there are so many things that I don’t know and I don’t understand. And in fact, my list of inquiries only grows longer ever since I stepped into the woodland. I was hoping that you would be able to give me some answers to my piling questions, if anything.”There’s a moment of silence as the spirit did nothing but only stare at the serene soul.Serein was s
