Despite feeling relieved after the ritual, Anabella and Thiên Phong couldn't fully relax. They knew that the curse might still have unresolved mysteries.
The next morning, as sunlight streamed into the room, Thiên Phong saw Anabella sitting at the table, studying the ancient book.
"It looks like you found something new,"
he asked.
Anabella looked up, her expression serious. "There's a section in the book mentioning an additional ritual. If the curse isn't completely resolved, we'll need to perform one more step."
Thiên Phong frowned.
"An additional ritual? Is there any information about it?"
Anabella nodded.
"This ritual requires a special item, and it must be performed at a specific time. But the book doesn't provide enough details. We need to find out more."
They decided to go to the city library, which might hold ancient documents and information about rituals. They spent hours searching, reading documents, and referring to old maps.
As evening fell, Anabella stumbled upon an important document.
"This is a copy of an ancient text; it seems to describe the additional ritual in detail."
Thiên Phong came over and looked at the document.
"It looks like we'll need an item from an ancient temple, and the ritual must be performed on the full moon."
Anabella murmured,
"We need to reach that temple before the full moon. But how do we find this ancient temple?"
At that moment, a stranger entered the library, eyeing them with suspicion.
"What are you searching for?"
he asked.
Anabella and Thiên Phong exchanged worried glances.
"We're researching an ancient ritual,"
Thiên Phong replied.
"Do you know anything about the ancient temple?"
The stranger smiled mysteriously.
"Perhaps I do. But what you're searching for might bring great trouble. Be careful."
Then the stranger left the library, leaving a big question mark in Anabella and Thiên Phong's minds.
"It seems we are getting closer to the truth," Thiên Phong said,
"But we are also facing unforeseen dangers."
Anabella nodded.
"We need to continue searching for the temple and prepare for the additional ritual. Everything is not over yet."
They left the library with renewed determination, knowing that their journey was far from over and more challenges and mysteries lay ahead.
