Chapter 235 Nersan´Rah´S Offer

Exactly as Danzel said, he finished carving the runes on all the items that Nersan′san gave him in about two days.

Although at first, he expected to finish them in a day, because of his sudden growth in his attribute, the agility increased his overall speed and intelligence increased how efficient his mind could process information, making his overall carving speed faster.

The reality was much crueler.

As he didn′t yet get used to the changes in his body, he needed to be extra careful when he carved runes.

As carving runes was all about precise work of hand movement and controlling one's mana, even the slightest mistake could lower the grade of the rune by a whole grade.

Even though the items he carved runes weren′t going to be of his use, he still went out of his way and make them as best as his abilities allowed him.

As of currently, Danzel was using his [Rune Vision] and was carving the last rune into a huge mana crystal. Its size was much bigger than the mana crystal that he was promised to get, but better was it not.

Using his [Status] to see through the description of the given items, Danzel could easily see through the fat piece of mana crystal being of an inferior grade compared to the other one.

With Danzel's mana seeping out of his finger that was touching the crystal, Danzel cancels his talent, making the world take color once more and giving his hearing once more.

Danzel raised the crystal up with his hand and observed it for a few moments before making it disappear inside his ring storage.

Standing up from his crossed leg position, Danzel bough out a piece of paper and a pen, before writing something.

"I guess I should go meet Nersan′rah about now..." Danzel said as he made the paper disappear similarly to the crystal.

Making his way towards the secret path, Danzel saw Skull Claw laying down, looking like she was about to die out of boredom.

`Right, I told it to guard that place...′ Danzel thought as he paused beside her without giving Skull Claw a second look.

Skull Claw who saw him pass beside her as if got rejuvenated back to her living state. She jumped up straight and brought out her decaying tongue that was about to fall off at any moment.

But upon realizing that her′s Liege just crossed the weird-looking barrier, she fell to the ground looking aimlessly forward and upheld the orders she was given to her.

Going through the dimensional Shift and walking towards the circular platform, Danzel activated the enchantment just as Nersan′rah thought him how, making the circular platform descend to lower levels of the Sacred Treasury.

While doing so Danzel open up his status.

[Remark: A Wight that managed to see the higher realm mastery over death, but not fully enters it and claims it as his own. Such a case has never been heard before without a second party involved. Many would recognize you as a true anomaly and a truly born undead with high potential. Only time would tell what such an anomaly would turn into. Too bad that his knowledge about death is too lacking for such great potential.]

[XP: 4 635 725]

"Tch, can′t be nice for once, huh?" Danzel scoffed under his helmet upon seeing the Remark.

Supposedly he grows has been recognized to be one if not the fastest among his fellow Wight out there. But such a fast growth also let him leave all his skills behind to rot in the lower stages of their evolution. Which made him feel bitter to think about as it essentially proved the annoying remark right.

Though he was physically now strong, his techniques and spells weren't capable to bring most of his strength to any use.

In the past, it was fine since his mana amount wasn't all that high and he had to be careful to not waste any.

But now his current amount of mana will take quite some time to empty even if he used his most mana expensive spell.

That could be an advantage in a prolonged fight, however, if the battle was close, then all that pills up mana inside of him would only sit there and do nothing.

"I even have some skills that I didn't even touch and some that can be bought directly to learn, but my current skills are more important." Danzel mumbled to himself as he reached the floor of the treasury.

Stepping out of the circular platform, Danzel moved towards the already opened up vault.

Walking inside though and seeing what was in front of him, made him freeze for a split second.

The previous messy collection of armor and weapons were now sorted, but that wasn't what surprised him.

The thing that surprised him was the beings that floated in the air near the bookshelves.

Over 30 beings emitting a dark aura under their gold-like armor and two pares of dark golden ethereal eyes were to be seen behind the scarf that hid their skeleton faces.

Beings are otherwise known as Wraiths.

Each of them traveled carrying a book and sorting it on another bookshelf, while the few of them brought some of the books to the crossed leg sitting figure that was in front of the Lab door.

Seeing that, Danzel started walking toward the figure.

The figure was none other than Nersan'rah in the body of the female magic caster.

Compared to when he saw Nersan'rah two days, ago. Now he looked much different.

While his golden hair and ponytail make him look enchanting to the opposite sex, the Nersan'rah in front of him looked like he had taken the top part of his rob fall and hanging to his legs and bonded his chest by some kind of bandages which made the two lumps of meat almost flat.

Almost that is.

What caught most of Danzel's attention though was the nearby dead mana that was surrounding and being controlled by Nersan'rah.

Something could only watch in awe of such fine control of mana.

"So you even came." Nersan'rah replied as soon as he noticed Nersan'ran's soundless steps.

"You thought that I would run away?" Danzel scoffed at Nersan'rah.

"Of course no-" Before Nersan'rah could finish his sentence, the moment he standard up and looked towards Danzel, his expression became stiff.

'What happend to him' Nersan'rah questioned his very own eyes.

'',

The Danzel in front of him was totally different from the Danzel of two days ago.

Not only was he a bit taller, but the deathly aura that he was emitting put some sort of mental pressure on Nersan'rah.

He clearly remembers this exact feeling when he was alive.

A pressure that only one person managed to inflict on Nersan'rah.

And that person was none other than his father, Azur'rah.

A being that his existence itself was above his.

Though the level of the pressure was quite lower than that of his father, he felt the pressure of a higher being towards Danzel.

Even though he once reached the 4th-tier.

His body now was only one of the 3rd-tier.

Though those last two days managed to increase his body strength, compared to Danzel it was nothing.

While being on his own thoughts, Danzel pulled out all the runes items that were given by Nersan'rah and even threw the list that had written what every rune does.

"Here, my part of the deal is done. You finished yours?" Daniel said, in which Nersan'rah sighted internally.

"Yeah...It's finished."

A moment later, one of the wraiths came down carrying a crystal and handing it with a bow to Danzel.

Touching the crystal and confirming it was the real deal, he nodded in satisfaction.

"I guess with that done, it's time to cross our ways, Nersan'rah."

Without waiting for his answer, Danzel moved toward the circular platform.

Seeing him leave, Nersan'rah panicked.

"Wait, Danzel!" He called out, Danzel glared at him with his ethereal eyes burning with seriousness.

One of his hands was resting on the hilt of the sword.

"What is it?" Daniel said with a cold voice.

After eyeing Danzel for a second, Nersan's grip on his staff became much stronger.

The atmosphere inside there was quite heavy, one wouldn't be surprised if those two had a go with each other.

Neither of those two knew who would win if they were to fight now.

Nersan′rah was an exception mage that had already reached the level of an Archmage when he was alive. Even though he had the body of 3rd-tier, the 30 or so wraiths together with his knowledge were enough compensation for his inferior body.

But if one considered individual strength alone, then Danzel was superior.

So instead of going with his original plan, Nersan′rah raised his arm and open it for Danzel to see.

Danzel who saw that gesture stayed silent.

"You and I, Danzel, how about we two join hands to achieve something much greater." Nersan′rah offered with a serious voice.

"...What?"
