Slowly drifting towards the land of dreams, I feel the same feeling when I first met my self proclaim dark thoughts.
After entering the dark places again I act different from the first time, this time I try to focus and feel the surrounding place, since he is my dark thought it means this place is my mind, since both he and I are the same our power will be the same in this place.
the surrounding is different from the outside world, there's no floating attribute around me, only darkness.
but in the darkness is soon replace with a brilliant sparkle of stars that suddenly light up one by one, creating a starry spectacle of the space.
I walk towards one of the stars, inside it reflect an image that I haven't seen before.
there's a picture of a person wearing a doctor's coat, there's a valiant and heroic woman standing in front of an army raising their morale.
all the stars seem to represent the story of a certain individual.
"Welcome successor, to the realm of blood."
the voice sounds ancient and long live.
"what's the use of this place?, why can I come here?, and who are you?"
"this place is a place of inheritance, you are the successor like what I said, and I'm the guardian of this place as well as your guide."
"then what kind of inheritance can i get from this place?"
"knowledge, experience, skills, or even taboo secrets."
hearing his words I was tempted by it, but before that I ask him a question. "what's is the price for the inheritance?"
"you not only you get their inheritance, but you also need to fulfill their wish or regret, the act of inheriting is the willingness to carry the aspiration or wish of those before us."
"can I visit this place again after leaving?"
"yes but it will be after you upgrade your bloodline again, and the inheritance you gain in the next visit will be from the same individual."
"so your saying the inheritance is just the first level, and the quality of each inheritance is different from each other."
"now you Eternael tell me what is your aspiration?"
hearing his question, I know he is asking this to help me find the most compatible inheritance for me, but even if he ask that I myself don't know
"I don't know, I haven't ever thought of that."
"then what is your desire."
"I don't know before everything happen, I was just an intern in a small company, I live my day just to pass the day as they come, if you ask my desire then it's probably only one thing and that is to live without regret."
"a simple desire but the most difficult to achieve, but there's a inheritance that is compatible for you."
with his word, the stars started to react, the countless number of them suddenly dimmed down and among them there's a single star that was coming closer towards our location.
finally it arrive in front of the Guardian and he put forward his hand, to stop the acceleration of the stars.
he slowly open his hand and give the item inside his hand to me.
in his hand was a ring that.
The ring is a mesmerizing embodiment of eternal energy, its ethereal band forged from a rare blend of silver infused with shimmering starlight. At its heart rests a flawless sapphire, its deep blue hue seemingly holding a boundless expanse of the night sky within. Encircling the gem, delicate engravings of interconnected constellations wind like celestial pathways, each line pulsating with a gentle luminescence. As a conduit of the Eternael's power, the ring emits a faint, ever-shifting radiance, mirroring the ebb and flow of cosmic forces.
"take it now, this will be your inheritance."
after taking the ring and equip it on my thumb A delicate enchantment appear, the enchantment ensures the ring's perfect fit for its wearer, resonating with their energy to harmonize their mortal essence with the timeless currents of the universe.
"it will be last time we meet young one, may your journey be filled with fortune."
after saying his word of farewell I was suddenly kick out from that place and sat up from my bed.
I turn my sight to my thumb, and saw there an extra ring on it, making sure that the event wasn't just a dream.
I'm confused what the used of this ring, it seems just like a normal ring beside the appearance.
since I woke up from my sleep and I'm not in the mood to continue sleeping.
I decided to visit the kitchen, since it is about time for lunch.
walking towards the kitchen, I feel something different from the surrounding, suddenly my vision was filled with string flowing and converging at some point.
I slowly approach it and try to interfere with it, the string started to loop around my finger.
the string become more and more muddle, just like the string the surrounding space around me started to become distorted and messy.
seeing this I started to try smoothing the string and return it to it's normal form.
after fixing the string and returning it to normal, I notice the walls was damage and some of it show cracks and was twist into a weird form.
taking a closer look the walls also have a strange line that was flowing.
I touch the line and started to let mana flow into it and the man started to move according to my mind, I order the mana to flow forward, the wall started to show sign of aging.
seeing this I was surprise since my ability to effect space and time increase exponentially.
I decide to make the mana flow backwards, the mana that was flowing require 3 times the amount of moving forward.
finally the wall return to it normal shape before I distorted it with the space power.
I decide to continue walking to the kitchen and continue investigating after the lunch since Auriel will be mad at me if I try to skip lunch again.
