"Hmm while those government guy are busy, i guess i could look at that library from another path" Alsiel then look the mountain and imagined the layout to figure out which way he could dig to enter the library from.
"This spot look nice" Alsiel mark a spot that seem to have only a little stone that are near the library. "Now, to look for digging equipment"
Alsiel quickly goes back to the place where the party is making their temporary base. Alsiel then see one person in it and quickly dispose of him. he quickly search for some digging equipment but don't find it.
"what's with these guys? are they seriously going for it by only knocking on the front door?" he lament they idiotic way of these guy (or maybe just the author). after searching for a while he found a small box inside some compartment hidden from sight marked with 'supply for emergency'. "No way!" the box contained ten or so of those stone that contain mana and he found something else
"Explosive!! so they do bring digging equipment" now Alsiel has to choose which one he want. if he choose the stone then he should forget about the ruin and possibly any scroll because he can't possibly just blow a hole in the wall with one of two of these and make a runwhile carrying boxes around. If he choose the explosive he could blow a hole and get whatever treasure contained inside the ruin but after the explosion it will be a do or die situation in which he have to run quickly into the library that may or may not have a spell formation surrounding it to stop the guardian.
"I should take the stone and get out of here right? It was the safest route. But..... what if i meet a creature like those living armor again?" Alsiel then imagined a situation where he meet those thing and only have a fireball the size if a palm and it just doesn't work, moreover he remember that the scroll that he have may not be something that could be used to get to the highest peak. he need something stronger and his bet lies in those ruin.
"Fine then" Alsiel is determined to get something from this ruin.
A few moment later Alsiel emerge from the base with body bulging with explosive that seems like it could be exploding at any moment. This time he was more determined than ever to get stronger. His plan as follow would be make a hole near the library, enter hastily before the guardian shows up and make a profit.
Alsiel then get to the place he marked for digging and threw as many explosive as he can in there. then he detonate them from a safe distance to make a hole and run quickly into the ruin.
When Alsiel enter the ruin the guardian hear the explosion but still dealing with the party so he send a few minnion of his to get to it. Alsiel is then chased by the minnion but he try his best to not engage with them. Good thing the guardian is not here or Alsiel will be dead before he could rush ahead.
Without the guardian it was easier to enter the library. After he enter the library the minion choose to not follow him into the formation.
"So a person is finally set their foot inside my palace" a voice that reverberated inside the library is startling Alsiel who in turn readied his weapon to meet this person. But he can't see anyone.
"OH, a real mortal, no way!" The voice exclaimed clearly not believeing that a mere mortal without any real power could enter into the library.
"Well it doesn't matter." The voice then continued "Hear me mortal im the emperor of this place, the people of this realm used to call me the space emperor. When i have to leave this place i set a legacy to whoever get to this place first. he could be the holder of my space teaching. but sadly you are a mortal so you cannot inherit my will."
"What? i risked my life to get here and i get nothing ?" Alsiel ask the voice.
"Well you have another chance because i have two things to offer you. one i can sense that you have cultivated a spell there are thing here that could reinforce your level or the second choice where you can go to a world easy to train using this portal i have made to transfer you to my other portal in that world" Alsiel then could see a portal that have an amazing amount of energy.
"wait if this portal is always up and taking the energy of the world..." Alsiel have a deep thought "You are the reason that this world don't have energy anymore"
"WHa... don't slander me mortal. these portal i made only require about ten.. no 5% of the whole world energy, and they get replenished alright!!"
"But what if there were multiple in the world ?"
"hmm, then that is possible" The voice is lamenting it "if that's what happen here then i guess i make your choice for you then mortal"
"Huh?"
Alsiel is then thrown into the portal without his consent. he could still hold on though because he latch onto the door.
"Don't worry mortal this door leads to a world where everyone can cultivate. or at least that's the situation in.... wait let me check the calendar... 3000 years ago. yeah it might be bad"
"What you BAS--"
Before he could finish Alsiel is gone inside the portal.
"3000 years huh, this spirit body couldn't possibly be active all the time and forgot to give the world another chance. After all these years i give the world the energy that i borrow" The portal then collapsed and the world recieve energy but it will take some time to restore even the 5% it lost.
