Chapter 305 Maze Completion

I found myself standing in front of an imposing throne, larger than any I had ever seen before. Seated upon it was a figure so colossal that it seemed to dwarf even the grandeur of the throne itself. It was Ignisara, the Phoenix Goddess, her presence commanding the space around her with an air of regality and power. Memories flooded my mind of the last time I had seen her, lying motionless in her coffin within the depths of Nightshade Sanctum.

Silence hung heavy in the air, stretching into an eternity as I stood there, grappling with the gravity of the situation. This wasn't the first time I had been thrust into this dark realm, each encounter more bewildering than the last. From meeting Jasmine to encountering Ren, and now this surreal confrontation with Ignisara, it seemed that the boundaries between reality and the unknown were becoming increasingly blurred.

As I stood there, lost in thought, I felt a strange sensation wash over me, as if I were being lifted from the ground and drawn closer to Ignisara's colossal visage. Her expression was inscrutable, devoid of any emotion or discernible intent. It was then that I heard her voice echoing in the recesses of my mind.

"Go back to Nightshade Sanctum," her words reverberated, their resonance filling the empty space around me. "This place is not safe anymore."

Confusion gripped me as I struggled to comprehend her cryptic message. "What do you mean?" I questioned, my voice barely more than a whisper.

"You'll lose," Ignisara's voice echoed, her tone unwavering. "You already have lost."

Her words struck me like a physical blow, leaving me reeling with uncertainty. What did she mean by "lost"? Had I already failed in some way without even realizing it?

Before I could voice my concerns, Ignisara's attention seemed to drift elsewhere, her gaze fixed upon some distant horizon beyond my comprehension. "Trust no one," her voice resonated once more, its cadence carrying an unmistakable warning. "Everyone is a liar."

With those final words echoing in my mind, I felt myself slipping away, my consciousness adrift in a sea of uncertainty. The world around me faded into darkness, and I drifted into a dreamless slumber.

"STOP!!!!!" When I awoke, I found myself lying in a dimly lit room.

My breathing was heavy, and I gulped, feeling as if my head was splitting in half bit by bit.

"Haa haa, Smokeball," I called. "SMOKEBALL!" I repeated again, but instead of Blaze, someone else dashed into the room.

It was Professor Night. "Ren! Y-you are awake! Thank God!" She immediately came in for a hug, but I raised my hand.

"Water-" Before I could say anything, she shoved a jar full of water towards me.

Gulping down the whole container, I just felt even more thirsty, to be honest. One by one, others entered the room too – Adam, Isolde, Erik, Vexa, and Aron, all of them.

"Where's my cat?" I asked.

"Hmm? That familiar of yours? Haven't seen him for a while," the Professor said.

Where the heck is that guy when you need him!? Ne/w novel chapters are published on no/vel(/b)in(.)co/m

I leaned back in bed and looked around. "Hmm, now what? What happened?"

"...."

All of them looked at me with a strange expression in their eyes, even Adam seemed to be engaged in a strange muttering contest with himself.

"Ren... we won," Professor said.

"Hmm? We did... of course, I guess," I sighed.

"Adam pulled the sword-" she continued.

"Obviously he did," I rolled my eyes. I never doubted his protagonist luck.

"...." Another awkward pause.

"We won because of you though. How did you even manage to get your hands on such a strong spirit? And what spirit was it? Do you remember?" she questioned.

"No, I don't. I made a contract before leaving the academy - it's a one-time contract, but I never saw the spirit," I clarified.

I couldn't go around telling them that I made a pact with a goddess - all they knew was Ellora in terms of goddesses. It was too much to explain, so I left it.

And it was obvious, I guess, that they knew the spirit was used in that last spell. I used Nova, a nine-star mage fire spell, because that's the maximum my body could handle.

Ignisara... haaa.
