Chapter 1875 The Truth Already Known (2)



'Was it for him? Was it for him that Elder Boyle ordered us to accept beings of other races into our faith?' The level 97 elder wondered as he looked at Emperor Stuart with interest.

Boyle's decision hadn't just been an unreasonable idea or the whim of an elder. Boyle was one of the three main seers of the sanctuary, and he had awakened 100 years earlier than expected.

Unlike human seers, seers from other races of the world, who were of different races, had completely different abilities from humans. In the case of these professionals' visions, the members of the Sea Folk who did this saw the future in their visions, which usually lasted for centuries.

To see, a few months into the distant future, beings like Boyle would sometimes spend 300, 400, or 500 years in seclusion!

But these seclusions didn't end at any time, depending on the interest of the seer. They only ended when something went wrong!

In this case, elder Boyle had awakened prematurely after an apocalyptic vision. Amid the chaos, however, he had seen humans acting in concert with their people.

Only the most important of the faith knew. As one of those who knew, the level 97 elder couldn't help but take a closer interest in Minos, as his words matched some of the comments he'd heard in the sanctuary.

But the other Demigod there, who didn't know that part, narrowed his eyes and asked. "How do you know that?"

The elder didn't know why beings of other races had been allowed to join his faith decades ago. But he knew that something bad would happen in the future because several of his elders had suffered setbacks in their seclusion.

Minos said. "There is something wrong in the North Sea that is connected to the advice I received from a prophet in a spiritual legacy I received some time ago."

"Oh?"

"The North Sea? That place has always been chaotic. Do you think there's something wrong there?" The level 97 elder, someone who had lived for over 100,000 years, asked Minos.

"Yes, in the distant past, that place was difficult because of the spiritual nature of the North Pole of our world. But things are much worse than they should be, and we're not in the middle of a generational cycle that could explain it." Minos said, aware that special phenomena from the Spiritual World could aggravate or ameliorate spiritual phenomena worldwide.

"Apart from some reports I've heard from survivors who passed through the North Sea, I feel that this would be the perfect place for something terrible to start. Who would suspect that something was wrong in that area, which was already chaotic and uninhabited in the past?

It's the perfect place for vile beings to hide and take the first steps toward terrible plans for the rest of us."

It was logical. What place, if not a place where no one wanted to go or live, would be the best place to lay the groundwork for plans that would endanger the entire world?

In the Spiritual World, there was no place better for this than the North Sea!

The two knew this, but it was tough to believe Minos' theory that the world's problems would come from that already chaotic area in the distant past.

Without any indication that the problems they felt would hit them would come from the North Sea, these beings couldn't fully trust Minos' suspicion without first investigating it.

However, investigating the North Sea would be very difficult, and there were many other things they needed to investigate!

The two elders looked at each other, and then the stronger one said, nodding to Minos. "Come here, young man. Let me show you the truth of our world. I don't know if your fears will turn out to be true. But what we have here is what we suspect lies behind the difficult times ahead."

Minos followed the recommendation of this member of the Sea Folk until he got close enough to the glowing sphere to see what was there.

From a distance, he could only see an intense white color emanating from the object. But when he arrived next to the level 97 elder, Minos could see a large corpse sealed by several chains and arrays in the vacuum of space.

This sphere was like a small spatial hole that connected the two areas, and Minos soon saw this being that had a body as preserved or more so than the corpse of Fah'um of Dunov.

"That..." He saw the non-human form of this corpse, which indicated that this being was not of the same race as Fah'um of Dunov.

The elder beside him explained. "We found this body 8 million years ago. At that time, we didn't have our first God, who created this sealing space connected to the shrines of our faith. But our Demigods of that time managed to put enough seals on it to preserve and bind it.

Since then, we have kept safe and imprisoned this creature, which even exceeded level 100 in its death!"

The two elders clenched their fists, feeling the weight of this truth. But surprisingly for them, Minos was not surprised to hear such things.

"Eight million, huh? That was a long time ago."

"Huh? You're not surprised?" The strong elder asked.

"Actually, I already knew that, elder. This body you sealed isn't the only one in the world..."

The two of them changed their expressions even more when they heard this, feeling that they would have to search for these beings to seal them away and prevent them from affecting this world.

If there were others like this, the danger they posed to the world would be gigantic!

Even when they were dead, their aura was stronger than that of Gods!

Imagine if someone in this world managed to use just one of these beings? The entire Spiritual World would be destroyed!

"This is terrible! Young Minos, where did you find this? We must seal it immediately!" The weaker one said.

Minos said. "It's already sealed by another group like yours...

Anyway, I know that level 100 isn't the limit. In fact, these beings are from a time when the Spiritual World was completely different and much bigger than we know."

"So you already knew the truth..." The stronger man sighed, knowing that others like them had inherited the purpose of taking care of this world and didn't immediately worry about Minos' words.

"But if you know all this, why are you still worried about the North Sea?"

"What if other fragments of this world that gave rise to the Spiritual World gave birth to races like ours? What if one of them found a way to come to our world?" Minos asked, raising a new doubt in the minds of these beings. "As far as I can see, these bodies are not a threat. What they represent, however, is very worrying."
