Chapter 28
Lugh fell to the ground. Lisa looked. Her face flushed. Her eyes in terror. And she was in disbelief.
"Lugh !"
Riley ran towards lugh. Concerned.
Ground shifts.
"What !"
A blinding light shined. Glistening glass mirror surrounded them. They stood inside of a tower of endles mirror stretching to the sky. No door. No windows. No escape.
"What the heck" Riley whispered. Speechless at the sight.
Lisa " Is this magic. But how"?"
Merlin "was there anyone else here except us"
Sreya "no I'm pretty sure we are alone here"
"This is the Cathedral of Anacard"
They turned around. lugh regained his consciousness. stood up.
"Cathedral of Anacard ? What do you mean"
Asked riley with visible concern on his face
"This is a spell casted by one of the 7 popes of Volcis to trap the person wielding Venidia. His name is Anacard. This blade was meant to be sealed away. Never to see the light of dawn again"
Said lugh. Glaring sharply at the glistening mirrors that doesn't show their reflection.
Lugh replied " I realized it after the 9th floor. This Dungeon was originally built to seal away that man. You saw stuck in the tree. But it was later reformed by the pope to seal away this blade"
Said lugh. Hinting at Venidia.
"How long have you known about this " asked sreya. Scared.
"I realized it. After we seperated. But I forgot about Cathedral in the heat of the battle"
Replied lugh
Realization struck lisa. As she realised.
[ we could've avoided this mess. If not for my vengefulness]
Merlin asked. Flustered. "Any way for us to escape "
Lugh replied. Visibly serious. " No possible ways. Only escape route is a impossible one"
Lisa "impossible? What do u mean"?"
"We have to break all thise mirrors. If we want to escape. And–—"
.Merlin cuts of lugh " thats it"?"
Aeitr in hand. Mana covering her. Two blue fist of mana forms. Each punch of it shattering five mirrors at once. Punches breaking the mirrors.
Lugh claps
Merlin asked lugh. Suspicious." What are you doing"
"Me? Im just clapping at the marvelous performance you showed. But you know Merlin, those mirrors repairs instantly.
Replied merlin. Visibly embarassed "couldn't have said sooner!"
group was on the verge of laughing
Lugh replied. Amused.
"you cut me of. And now im wrong. Wait are you a tsundere"
Merlin screamed. Flustered. " SHUT UP!"
Something happened. Reflection less mirrors were reflecting dark Emperor
Merlin who was embarrassed. Now Was scared
Sreya asked. Confused " why is his reflection shown"
Lugh was also confused at first. But soon realized. And said " it might either be showing the most loved or the most feared indivisual of their attacker. Looking at merlin. It clearly shows, its the feared one that's reflected "
Lisa looked at merlin [ she used to be a queen. Make's sense why she would be scared of hin]
That moment, the mirrors glowed gold. Each reflection of the dark emperor exitted from the countless mirrors. Countless dark Emperor's emerged.
Merlin was horrified.
Lisa was thunderstruck.
Siblings were terrified
" seems like there's another ability.
Its not only capable of reflecting but also manifesting the fear "
Said lugh looking at countless dark Emperor's. Smiled eerily.
