Chapter 34 - Tower of Trials

Next morning Nova was led by Shauna to her home entrance, she shielded him to prevent any unwanted tragedy that might occur.

*swooh* A lady with overbearing pressure came, all her pressure was focused on Nova still it wasn't to the point of crushing him to death.... Which would she usually do to any intruders, flattening them with her pressure even before they got the chance to explain anything.

"kid I suggest you to stop using milady as a hostage, or I will torture you for million years before destroying your soul completely" Lady said with a threatening tone, her golden hair, with her 6 golden tails and blue eyes gave her a Celestial beauty, but Nova can't appreciate any of thay as this lady is out for blood, to the point of not seeing that he is actually being shielded by Shauna not holding her hostage.

"Aunt Celia, I am shielding him before your short temper kill him not being hold hostage by him" Shauna said with her usual calm voice.

"hmm, Y-you bastard, how dar you use Milady as meat shield, I will torture your soul for billion years now" Celia shouted, in anger.

'this woman is nuts, no wonder they say the bigger they are the dumber they get' Nova thought looking at two big mountains but he still maintained his fearful expression.

"Your Temper is going bad to Worst, Aunt you should try to use some calming Arts or you might never get married, after all who will like a rude lady, you yourself teach me that Aunty" Shauna said with a calm expression.

'although I know she don't show much expression and is basically a piece of ice but there are somethings you don't say Shauna' Nova mentally screamed at her for dropping such bomb on her Aunt.

"h-how could you say to me such thing, my beautiful niece would never say such thing, you, yes it must be your fault YOU HAIRLESS MONKEY, I WILL TORTURE YOU FOR BILLION OF YEARSA NOW" Celia first looked like a girl who was almost at the edge of crying then she suddenly flipped pointing at Nova shouting in rage.

"Does she usually like this.." Nova asked to Shauna lookin at Celia who look like a enraged cat with all her hair flying around and her tails whipping everything around her, each whip of her tail would produce a sonic boom and if not for the enchantments of the house they would have probably be ripped or blasted into blood mist.

"Don't worry, she will get calm in hour or two" Shaina said while conjuring two ice chairs for them to sit waiting for a Lady with temper.

Nova sit at the ice chair, feeling thing, he expected to feel cold but nothing of the sort happened, it almost like sitting on a wooden chair but more comfortable than it.

After a hour wait now Nova, Shauna and Celia are sitting in the inner garden drinking Tea.

"So you even don't know how you appear here right?" Celia asked him for confirmation.

"yes I don't know" Nova said while his inner voice 'who is this noble lady and where did that Hot temper lady go, is she dual personality problem person or she is possessed'.

"hmm your condition is most likely to be that of Lost Person" Celia said after some thinking.

"lost Person?" Nova raised his eyebrows at such unexpected words,cause he know what that means, Lost Person refer to those who accidently fell into a spatial crack and survive.

"It means a Person who fell into the void but still lived to tell the tale" Celia cleared his doubts.

"hmm, So can you tell me where am I" Nova asked after nodding.

"You are in the one of the divine beast Territory, the Nine tailed Divine fox territory, In the Volpes clan Territory under the same divine beast rule" Celia told him of his location in this world which is not a bit helpful to him, cause he is not from this world.

"Divine beast territory, it's my first time hearing about such thing" Nova said frowning.. Of course he is acting.

"Unless you lived under a rock all this time, it's impossible to not hear about Divine Beast" Shauna said while looking at him calmly.

'atleast show some emotions can you' Nova mentally screamed "I didnt live under the rock or any such thing, but I am sure its my first time hearing of any divine beast ruling over a territory" Nova snorted at Shauna comments and said.

"then it leaves us with the last option that is tou are.. Not from this world, that spatial crack brought you here in this world from your world" Celia said in grim tone cause unless you know your own world coordinate it's impossible to go back there and world coordinates are not shared or who knows when someone use those coordinates to telepoet a entire army to their world.

"I s-see" Nova also acted accordingly to not evoke any suspicion.

"haah, it's okay kid our world is also connected to many worlds and who knows if one of those worlds is your world, you might able to return to your world" Celia sighed but still tried to console Nova.

"You can also try Tower of Trials, there is a reward of able to travel wnywhere if you conquer it's 50th floor" Shauna also tried to calm him down.

"tower of Trials?, 50th floor reward? Telle more about this tower" Nova said with gleaming eyes.

"Ah yes, Tower of Trials is Massive Tower with no end, located at the center of this world, The Tower has been conquered upto 5000 + floor but it's still there is no sign of end, therfore its also called Endless Ascension Tower, And every 10 floors of the Tower gave significantly good rewards with 50 th floor tower be limitless distance Teleportation stone, though it's only one time use item it can easily Teleportation you back to your world" Celia said with a smile, for her Nova excitement meant his hope of returning.

While for Nova it meant a challenge, and that what made him excited, also from this tower description, of he climb enough floors he might able to get respect of all this world inhabitants, allowing him to return back to his world easily.
