POV: Laura
As soon as I crossed the portal My heart raced for a second as a feeling of falling came and disappeared not long after leaving me a bit disoriented for a couple of seconds before I regained my footing and cleared my mind taking a deep breath.
'I'll never get used to teleportation, how do space mages bare with it.' I thought as Lana and Collin appeared from the portal behind me followed by an Ashen teary faced Amon, and Finally Allen. I muttered a silence prayer to Lord Ysion, Zavier was a brave man, a good man we wouldn't have made it without him...
I may have made it alone have I chosen to ignored the others and rushed straight towards the gate, alas paving a path and not rushing too fast so they may follow drained my energy faster then what I have expected.
Amon was collapsed on the ground a blank look on his face as Allen was trying to comfort him, Lana and Collin soon joined in, I'm not really good with this type of talk so I left them to it and took a look at our surroundings.
We were standing in front of an entrance to a giant omnious looking cave, to the sides of it were two torches that did almost nothing to light up the area, the sky was dark and nothing could be seen behind us or to our sides and much like the last area of flowery hell we were once again atop a small road that lead directly towards the entrance of the cave while the sides were nothing but abyssal darkness, I approached slowly to the edge of the road and moved my hand slowly in front of me.
*Thud* a dull sound resounded as my hand literally hit the darkness, it was some type of barrier that stoped us from going anywhere but follow the small path, as I turned around to call out to my companions a bright blue screen popped in front of me with a ding sound, I looked around to see that it was not me alone who had one, the others seemed to be looking at theirs as well, I turned my attention back to the screen reading what it said.
*You're contribution towards the survival of your party was crucial and has thus earned you the chance of choosing one A-rank reward! -Please proceed in choosing one of the following rewards: • "Divine Light": a Legendary sword forged by The God of War Kizdall himself, equipping this sword will earn you a temporary blessing of The God of War. •"Fydur's Wings": This Item will earn you the blessing of the God of wind allowing you to materialize a pair of wings that will last for a limited time depending on their level. •"Angel blood": The blood of a High-tiered Angel...(Consumable) *may cause mutations* > I gulped loudly as I could hardly believe the rewards, a sword of The God of war that will give me his blessings?! Or wings of the God of Wind... but that last reward looks too suspicious, the description is too short and doesn't provide any type of useful information other then it being a consumable? So does that mean I will have to drink it? I once again looked up at my companions, who were also seemingly busy with their own rewards, just then I could see a bright flash of light coming from Lana before it subdued leaving her with a bright green bow in her hands. Then what should I choose? The sword is tempting considering i'm a magical swordsmen and the blessings is something I'm also curious about, while choosing the wings would help me with my mobility and make me faster, however something about that last rewards irked me it was as if there was something or someone that wanted me to choose it. 'Oh dear Ysion watch over me and grant me your blessings' I muttered one last prayer before I decided on what rewards I want. As the words on the screen changed, a bright light that illuminated me came and along with it I could feel something in my hand, when the light subdued I glanced at my right hand to find a small glass bottle with a white shiny liquid inside of it, there was nothing fancy about the bottle as it was just a normal one, the liquid inside however I assumed was the Angel's blood. Looking up Lana had a new bow in hand Allen had new fancier shield while Collin also seemed to have a new staff, Amon however was still blankly looking over what I assumed was his screen. "Is that some type of Elixir Laura?" Asked Collin as he approached me all the while hugging his new staff, Lana soon smacked him to the back of his head berating him "Don't be rude, it's none of your business" "Ouch! I was just curious in the name of Ysion why do you have to be so violent." "It's okay I don't mind." I replied smiling at the two, it was then that Amon suddenly started glowing, Allen that was next to him had to walk back a few steps shielding his eyes, when he returned to normal his eyes seemed to burn with a fire of determination and I could swear I saw a hint of madness in them, he slowly walked towards the edge of the path, heading towards the darkness before I could stop him and let him know of the barrier in place he turned to look at us. "Thank you, for your help I'm grateful but I will be taking a different path so we shall part ways here." He said giving us a light bow. "What do you mean the path is..." Allen's words stopped in place as Amon continued to walk the darkness soon opened up and a small door appeared, he didn't look at us again nor did he wait for any reply as he stepped through the door and his figure soon disappeared along with the door itself merging back to the same Darkness.
