I waited in the shade for about half an hour, but I did not notice any signs that everything had begun. Most likely, not everyone has managed to gather yet, or Rake is simply waiting for a more opportune moment to attack.After another ten minutes, strange sounds began to be heard from the direction where the old man had gone. Following them, a heart-rending scream was heard from Lestat's room.- Who?! Who dare?! shouted the Ancient One.It seems that it has begun ... Now the most important thing is not to make a mistake and deliver an accurate blow with a dagger right in the heart.A moment after his cry, the gates swung open, and I saw Lestat standing on the threshold. A grimace of hatred and anger was reflected on his face.I didn't have time to blink, as he immediately disappeared from view. Crap! I'm too relaxed!Concentrating, I tried to catch his movements - I succeeded! Fortunately, I managed to react in time, and now I already saw that he was moving in my direction with great
I left the room and looked around. Where could he go? He seemed to be saying something about the outside world… So, most likely, he is going to go outside…The question is, can he do it? In theory, the dungeon is still not considered cleared, which means that Rake was the boss of this dungeon. It is likely that all those adventurers who lie behind me are not real. Maybe they're just part of the script. Such an option cannot be ruled out. Still, this dungeon is not standard, and it clearly has some kind of plot. The quest was given to me...But there is another option… What if these are all unplanned events? Just a series of accidents that escalated into something terrible.Thinking like that made my stomach twist and my vision blurred.The first option is better, in which they were all created along with this dungeon. But who knows... Perhaps these dungeons are also not a convention, but a very real location in one of the worlds.Okay, time to stop thinking about it and start looking
- It turns out that so ... And also ... - I took out the “Necklace of Lust” from the ring. I managed to get this...- What is it? Loire took the necklace in her hands and looked in my direction with incomprehension.“Ahem… Necklace of lust. Remember when you told me about the set of the Seven Sins items? This is another part,” I whispered.- WHAT!? DO NOT YOU SAY! the head shouted, which attracted the attention of absolutely everyone in the tavern.- Can you be quieter? I asked and took the necklace from her. “You yourself understand that if someone finds out about this, then we will be hunted.“You’re right, and you shouldn’t have shown it here ... I’m sure that someone heard it for sure.” We should be more careful. And luckily, the Queen is with us! Loire clapped Efil on the shoulder.- Pasha, before I forget. My husband is returning to the capital in three days. The rumor that we have a new daemonid has already spread around the world. And about the fact that you went through a sin
“Fine, five copies each, please. What about rare potions? I asked and handed the money to the seller.Fortunately, my hundred gold for the meeting was paid to me yesterday.- Thank you for your purchase! As for rare potions… I have one thing… Recently, I managed to buy from a passing merchant from Erdania. But I don’t know its properties,” the seller replied sadly.- Unknown properties? And can I see it? I asked.- Oh sure. Hold on! The man pulled out a strange vial of black liquid from under the counter.Taking it in hand, I tried to get information about it, and I succeeded!What kind of wonder are you?Potion of Void.Class - Demonic.As soon as the flask breaks, the contents create a void area within a radius of twenty meters from the epicenter.Hmm... What does that mean? What emptiness? Nothing is clear from the description, but the demonic class… Sounds very tempting.I did not pretend that I could identify the potion, and turned to the seller:“Hmm… It’s very strange, this is
I opened my eyes.Sol, are you okay? Luara turned to me.- BUT? What? I asked in bewilderment.- I ask, how are you?I looked around.- We are alive…? Ay! I uttered in a whisper and sharply grabbed my finger, which again hurt.- Of course! What nonsense are you talking about? Get it together! Ambassadors from Erdania will arrive soon! Loire remarked in an important tone and looked sternly in my direction.I did not answer anything and looked at her with fear in my eyes.- Sol? You're scaring me! Loire noticed and tried to take my hand.At her touch, I pulled my hand away.What was it just now? Dream? No, it wasn't a dream... It was all too real... A vision, then? But how? And why exactly did I see it? The feeling that no one knows what happened just a minute ago ...Wait... the ring...I silently studied the properties of my new ring.Ring of Premonition of DangerClass - LegendaryRumor has it that such jewelry is able to protect the owner from many hardships and misfortunes. But as
We slowly moved deeper into the forest. Surprisingly, the forest was very quiet and calm, as if absolutely no one lived in it. Not even the rustle of grass could be heard. It was very frightening, but Edgar explained this by the fact that we pass through a protective barrier and because of this the sounds are muffled.This went on for about two minutes. Until at some point I was almost deafened by a sharp bang, followed by a huge variety of different sounds of the forest.These sounds immediately reminded me of my childhood, when I came to my grandmother's dacha and spent the whole day with my friends in nature. But one sound still stood out from the general mass, although not ... It fit perfectly into the general environment ... It was a beautiful female voice singing some very interesting and bewitching melody.- Is it always like this? I asked Edgar.“Yeah…” he replied and took a deep breath. I missed this place...- How long do we have to go? Loire interjected into the conversatio
I took out two objects from the spatial ring. For all to see, I have provided the "Crown of Greed" and the "Necklace of Lust." As soon as I put them on the table, deathly silence hung in the hall.After a few moments, everything seemed to “sag” at once, and Lucille spoke.- It…? Will I take a closer look? - the girl turned to me.- Oh sure. I replied and pushed the items closer to Lucille.The girl carefully examined the objects, but was in no hurry to take them in her hands. Apparently, she roughly understands what it is. Although, this is not at all surprising. What did she call herself? Guardian of this forest? Most likely, her level of power is far beyond our understanding and she is familiar with these items.One thing I don't understand is why did the divine items appear in my world? And most importantly - in our era? Before us there were a huge number of worlds. Some kind of inconsistency ... Although, I found it here too. But he also received an item for the task ...Something
Time flew by imperceptibly, and now the dead of night has come.I sat on a bench near the house and continued to enjoy the silence of this beautiful place.Loire didn't lie when she said all the guys would sleep outside. She even managed to kick out the king, to say nothing of the rest. Still, strange people live in this world... It seems like a king and queen, but they behave like children.- Why you do not sleep? A woman's voice echoed in my head.I jumped in surprise and nearly fell off the bench.You're scaring me again! Is there really no other way to warn me that I'm awake?! And anyway, where do you always disappear to? We've got serious problems here! I mentally answered Elaine.- I was gaining strength ... Listen, where are you, and what are your problems? Elaine asked curiously.It took me about half an hour to tell her everything that had happened in the short time that Elaine had been away. She was too stubborn and found fault with every little thing. It felt like I was bei
