Chapter 9 - A room full of treasures

Izayoi thought that it will only take a few miles for him to reach where the light is heading but the light is not giving a sign that it will stop and he cannot help but contemplate, thankfully he left a letter to his master before he left their home. Now he is having a hard time deciding whether he will continue since it might take another time to finish this path.

When he is finally reaching his stamina he was about to go back but suddenly the light of the pendant shone even brighter which made him even more undecided but it seems like he was supposed to follow the light since this keeps happening.

Izayoi cannot help but sigh.

He then continues and follows it once again. Only to say that it is heading to the forest that they were supposed to go today but somehow it seems like his master postponed it because of what happened.

The little boy didn't meet his mater on the way since the way to the forest is the opposite to the river where his master is catching fish, if by chance he saw the little who he thought is having a rest he will definitely reprimand him and will make him go back but that is not the case. Even Izayoi cannot help but ask himself why he is doing this. He is a child that will leave like this on a whim since he didn't want to make his master get angry, he's the type of child who is obedient and submissive.

After a few more walk he saw a mountain but thankfully the light is not pointing upward since even him will stop immediately, he then looked at the direction where the light is heading and saw a cave and somehow it's as if there is a multi-colored curtain though if a normal person came here then they will never see this cave just an empty slope though this is different for him since the light show him the way.

Before he continues he first looked at his surrounding since there might be wild animals lingering in this part of the forest after making sure that it is safe he went inside. He slowly opened the curtain but was surprised because it seems like it is not a curtain but an illusion that can hide what's behind it, without even lifting it he went inside and saw a narrow path inside. This place was supposed to be dark but thanks to the golden light that came from his pendant the path are illuminated and he can see where he was supposed to go.

He followed until the way somehow turned different, there so many think that was not supposed to be in there.

He saw a fancy torch though it is not lit up, he went near it then saw that it is not the only one that was placed over there because no matter how deep he goes the path changed drastically. Right now it looks like a proper hallway and turned wider that even a 5 person can line up horizontally at the end of the road he saw a big golden door, he was quite fascinated since this is the first time he saw something so beautiful in his life.

He then saw that the pendant is pointing in the middle of the door. He then saw a lock on it though it looks peculiar because it is not like a normal lock where a normal key will fit, it looks like a puzzle that is missing a piece it has the same shape as his pendant he tried to look if it really has the same shape and tried to put it as if putting a last piece of the puzzle.

He anticipated it but he was quite surprised when he saw that it really fit and then he waited for a reaction but somehow there is none that is what he thought but after a few seconds his pendant shine and then followed by the huge door.

It is quite brilliant that he cannot help but cover his eyes and then he heard a loud sound of an opening door, he tried to peek and saw the door opening.

The door slowly opens and then he saw something unbelievable. A huge pile of treasure is inside that cannot believe how huge it was piled up. Somehow he thought that he is dreaming.

He still can't believe it that he stays over there standing in front of the huge door. He then made a decision to enter and then his sight got broaden, inside the door looks like a royal hall where kings and queens live, it even has a throne, if he didn't come from the outside he will definitely think he is inside a huge castle.

He saw the pile of the treasure in front of him and he tried to hold one and then finally accepted that this is not a dream.

He saw different kinds of beautiful accessories and they even have different kinds of weapon which looks fancy though he already has one so he didn't even give those a glance.

He just looks around a little until he decided that it is finally time to leave, they all look extremely beautiful but these are not his if he takes even one of it will be considered a robbery.

He is ready to leave when something shone inside of the pile of the treasure he is quite curious and looked at it, he then carefully put the treasure that is piling up the light and then he saw a single accessory.

It looks like a hair accessory because it has a red flower on its design and an extremely long golden ribbon as its tail, he is extremely confused because it seems like this is the reason why he is here he was about to turn around only to saw another one inside.

It seems like it is a pair. He reached for it and then he saw a pattern behind the other hair accessory and then the place tremble as if there's an earthquake happening.

A Suivre…
