the inside of box was divided in three sections in a ratio 5:3:2
the biggest section contained a big black cuboid made of an unknown metal
Rex expected it to be a very hard metal but when he touched it he realized that it was actually soft as dough in the second section there was a fist size white orb and in the smallest third section there was black card lying there
Rex did not knew anything about any one of them but the white orb caught his attention
'is it some kind of instrument…don't tell me it would also need a drop of blood to work' thinking of it Rex bit his finger then placed it on the orb
when he did that the orb absorbed the blood but then several cracks appeared on it
'fukkk i didn't broke it.. did i' (Rex)
when the orb broke a white light flew out of it at a very fast speed and entered Rex's head
when it entered his head Rex's consciousness blurred
when Rex opened his eyes he was standing in the middle of the stone road
when he looked around he found out that it was a city but the civilization was too different from the ones he had seen until now but it was somewhat similar to old England
there were many big building which almost blocked all the sunlight falling on the road, they were decorated with many types of colorful gems and stones, there were stones bridge, clock tower weapon shop clothing shop and the like…and these things only included what Rex could see from his current position
to Rex it looked like a city in a fantasy world which one could see in a MMORPG game
Rex could still see a giant castle few miles away from him… just before the castle there was a giant gate and on top of that gate there was a symbol made of two hammers crossing each other which was same as the one Rex saw on the box
when Rex was just looking at it he saw some people passing by the road after Rex saw them he was dumbstruck because they were not humans although there was also human among those peoples but they were walking with each other like they did not mind it at all
'pointed ears.., spicy dark skin., slender waist…damn isn't it a dark elf in stories..what a body..cough cough.. i mean what a race.. wait this one.. cat like ears..but its a man go away fukkk off damn who do you think you are ignoring look at me' Rex soon found out that it was just like an illusion and others cannot see him
this also woke him up because earlier all his attention was on the buildings around him so he almost forgot how he came here
just when Rex was thinking how to get out everything around him disappeared in an instant then he looked around
'isn't it my sea of consciousness why i am here' (Rex)
"so.. do you like it.. the Kingdom made by my Ancestors" a voice came from behind
Rex turned around and found out that an old man with brown hair was standing there, the old man had a bulky body but his height was short considering his body
"this is the first Kingdom of Dwarfs that is above the surface" The old man said with a prideful tone
'what is that expression mean.. he is saying it like that he made it himself' (Rex)
although Rex thought that but he still nodded indicating that he liked it
"wait don't answer me its not like i can see or hear you after all its a recorded message" the dwarf said
'fukkk this old man is looking for a beating' (Rex)
"let me start from my introduction I am Alfred D Wolford" (Alfred)
'what..Rose its a D.. is it the will of D.. don't tell me he is a pirate' (Rex)
"i am one of the 12 Artifact Venerable of the Great Dwarfian Kingdom and this is my Inheritance you must have gone through many difficulties to pass through all the trials of the dungeon i made myself and most importantly you had also successfully solved the puzzle on the box… " (Alfred)
[wait what difficulties did he misunderstood]
'no no Little Rose he is just joking.. old man like him love to joke a lot like this' (Rex)
[really]
'off course you still do not understand human emotions live with me and you will also become very smart one day just like me' (Rex)
[hmmm]
"to tell the truth even i can only solve it once out of ten times" Alfred pondered for a second than said
'bastard then why the hell you made it that hard' Rex was enraged
"but i still made that puzzle as a trial because i wanted to give my inheritance to someone who have the potential to surpass me because i will soon leave this world" Alfred shook his head and said in a nostalgic tone
'wu wu wu good old man it looks like i misunderstood your intentions but don't worry even when you die i will carry on your legacy for you' Rex wiped the invisible tears from the corner of his eyes and said with a resolute face
"wait don't misunderstood when i said that i will leave this world i mean that i am going to the upper realm.. actually a senior from upper realm recognized my talent and invited me to go to the upper realm with him" Alfred thought then suddenly corrected his words
Rex's face was dark
'Old man i curse you, soon your long hair will fall and you will go bald' (Rex)
"I don't care whether you are an elf, a dwarf, a demi-human, a human or a demon you have completed my trial so you can have my inheritance.. now i will pass on my inheritance to you, as for how much of it you can comprehend it depends on your innate talent..
if you can comprehend even 25% of it then i will directly except you as my true disciple off course if we will meet in the future that is…. and if you still want to repay the favor or thank me for the inheritance than there is no need just buy a beer to any fellow dwarf you meet" Alfred laughed
'thanks for the Inheritance old man but i don't want to be anyone's disciple anymore as for a beer..don't worry if i meet a dwarf i will push him in a swimming pool filled with beer.. and what did you mean by 25% are you mocking me.. Rose lets show this old man that who he is facing' (Rex)
[understood]
Rex did not know that if someone had heard Alfred saying the 25% requirement then their face will be already dark
using a memory orb to give inheritance is not easy, one have to put many efforts to store the inheritance in it but it also comes with an advantage
when someone uses memory orb to pass on Inheritance then it contains not only all the things he/she learned in their life but also their experience and insights in learning them saying that you can get 100% of it means that you are just taking what they earned in their whole life like nothing
Alfred cannot hear what Rex said so he just raised his hand and a white light flew out of his finger and entered Rex's head
