Removing each and every thread one by one Sylia dropped all the threads and took the lock in her hands and closed her eyes. She started with her spells in a low voice. After a few minutes, she could feel the lock getting warm and as well as her hands in which she was holding the lock were feeling slightly warm. She knew that the spell was working. All she had to do was to continue with the spell and wait patiently for it to work on the lock. It took a few seconds before the spelling to show the effect after all she was using the spell for the first time so her speed was comparatively quite slow.
" Click" With the small sound, the lock got open. Sylia's eyes brightened when she saw the lock in her hands. Her first mission got complete and she was beyond excited.
>Beep! Mission accomplished!<
> Adding twenty points to earlier zero points.<
Sylia almost jumped in excitement. Her first mission was accomplished and she had finally unlocked it.
Her eyes darted around the door and her hands started to feel itchy. Somehow they were automatically going forward to push the door to open it. But wasn't her mission already finished? What was she going to do with anything else? Her mission is already complete and she had already received the points. There is nothing for her to do anymore. She raised her chin and took a spin to turn back and walk towards the couch on which she was sitting earlier. Right now her aura and composure were completely different from her earlier self. Right now she seemed quite prideful and haughty and that too without any reason.
But again her thoughts would return back to the door and time and again she would start feeling itchy on just looking at the closed door. She badly wanted to push them to open and look what is inside.
"Augh! I want to just take a look inside. The door was probably closed for a long time, after all the lock doesn't seem to be new and even the thread wrapped around it looked so torn and old. It made my hands dirty." Sylia muttered to herself.
" Will I get points to trap the soul?" Sylia could not help but ask. If the system was willing to reward her for that then she would willingly go and capture the soul. And her wish of peeping inside the room would also be satisfied. But just like every time how the system would give her a hard time and deny everything, this time as well the answer from the system made her irritated.
>Beep! The system cannot answer.<
'The system is useless!' she could not help but curse the system inwardly. But her mind diverted on the fact that how this system came inside her? Was it something bad for her? She could not help but think. She was about to question the system when she realised how useless it was. Immediately she dropped that idea!
" I should take a nap, that will be better. At least it would distract my mind." Sylia closed her eyes and laid down on the couch. A few minutes have been passed when she started to twist and turn on the couch. Helplessly she could only start straight and look at the door again.
"Looking inside for once is not going to kill me." Sylia nodded her head after thinking for quite a long time and decided to open it just for once. She will look inside and then close the door as if nothing happened.
She stood up and walked towards the door while her heart was pounding at a quite a fast rate. She was excited and nervous as well. But why was she nervous and about what, she did not have any answer.
Removing the lock from the she pushed the door open and pushed the doors to open the room.
* cough* cough*
Letting out a series of coughs, Sylia covered her nose and mouth with her hands as she looked around the room was dark and there was not a single source of light. She came out and walked towards the big wooden fire lantern and grabbed it. She removed it from the covering screw and it took it in her hands before lighting it using the small fire in the large fire burning pit like homa and took it in front of the dark room.
When the light illuminated the whole room Sylia was surprised. It indeed looked like that magic and spells were done inside this room and it was only reserved for this specific purposes. The room was in a triangular shape with each and every corner having three wooden racks on which it seemed that some kind of books were kept. She was about to step inside but halted in her steps when she recalled how the devil King had reacted in the morning when she was trying to open the lock. But when she recalled that he was the one who had asked her to do this capturing spell then there was no other reason for her to stop from going inside.
Without thinking she looked downward and noticed that there was a wooden plank which was about a few inches in height. Raising her left feet on a particular level she crossed that wooden plank and placed her foot inside. All of a sudden she started to feel cold. She immediately retracted her foot back. She could not help but be surprised and think 'what was it?'.
