Chapter 671: The enticement
Chapter 671: The enticement
( A few minutes back )
Dronacharya opened the hole to the inner vault and used a rope fastened to the hole in the tunnel that he came for to very gently lower himself inside the vault.
He took a good 12 minutes to lower himself down by 4 feet as he did not even make the slightest of landing noise at all.
Only afterwards did he even look around the church’s vault at all , as the scene that lied infront of him was beyond incomprehensible.
Atleast 400 × 500 meters large area was covered by the vault and almost half of it was gold , silver and precious jewels.
Dronacharya made a quick calculation and found out that the wealth inside this vault was atleast equal to the total GDP of some of the wealthiest nations , as there were hundereds of trillions of dollars worth of gold just lying inside.
Items that he had never even imagined in his life were a reality inside the vault as it contained everything inside from the holy sword Excalibur , to semi divine sets of armours whose effects one could not even begin to comprehend.
Uncountable spell tomes and spell books that were forbidden for commoners to learn adorned racks and racks of the vault , as they were literally labelled by their tier.
Uncountable tier 3 spells adorned the walls with their being 25 bookshelves full of them.
While there were 13 bookshelves full of tier 4 spells and 2 bookshelves full of tier 5 spells!
A single tier 5 spell sold over over 1.5 trillion dollars on open market by some estimates , however dronacharya was sure in his mind that it would definitely sell for much higher in an auction setting as such an item was unheard of to come up for bidding.
Browsing through some of the spells casually , dronacharya saw some very interesting ones.

There were yet another 30 scrolls I’m just one bookshelf and each one was different than the other in terms of application and versatility.
Dronacharya felt like a kid in Disneyland as he did not understand what to rob and what not to rob , however before he robbed anything else he started to carefully locate the demons diary.
It took him a good 15 minutes to find it , but he did find the book cover to the demons diary as amongst all the items placed in the treasury , there were only 3 items that were sealed using runes and had figurines of the goddess beniogre surrounding them.
Upon approaching closer to those three items dronacharya realised that all 3 were related to Lucifer with each item being completely unreadable.
[ Book cover from demon’s diary ] ( ???? ) – ???????
CAUTION – DO NOT TOUCH!
[ The demonic art of resurrection ] ( ?????? ) – ???????
CAUTION – DONT TOUCH IF ALIVE
[ Lucifer’s diary as an angel ] ( ???????? ) –
??????????
CAUTION – Error ! Error! Error !
Dronacharya felt his heart throb a little as he saw the description of the three items as he felt a urge inside him to do exactly opposite to the caution warnings and claim all 3 as his own.
However he couldn’t be hasty , and needed to proceed with care as to not make a single sound.
Carefully picking one beniogre statue from around the demon’s diary at a time , he placed them on the ground , as he undid the holy bindings on the item as it revealed the actual book cover inside.
The book cover was red in color , with an extremely gory picture that showed a throne and a million dead bodies around it bleeding profusely with their innards all ripped out.
Just by looking at it dronacharya felt chills run down his spine as he got a fear debuff.
[ You have gazed upon a book made by a primal god , your fear grips you , decreases all stats by 20% ]
Dronacharya’s eyes widened in shock , just by looking at the item all his stats fell by a fifth , just how scary was this item in reality?
He already had posessed one of the pages of the book , yet the page had no reaction at all , however looking at the cover he felt a chill ?
Not understanding how or why , dronacharya gulped his fear back and picked up the book cover. As instantly he felt the mana from his body being sapped in a second as he felt his eyes go black for a split second and a cold laughter noise entering his ears.
‘ Hahahahahaha , finally I’m free……. ‘.

( Meanwhile , the cuber corp , sirens blaring)
” ANAMOLY…. ANAMOLY , ITS A CODE RED , CODE RED , CODE RED “.
” THIS IS NOT A DRILL , THIS IS NOT A DRILL , ITS A CODE RED “.
There was an atmosphere of mass panic inside the cuber corp as Gaia had raised an alarm calling for an emergency meeting.
As the officials rushed to the conference room , Gaia declared in the most emotionless of voices ” A demonic sin has been unsealed in Omega…. “.
The faces of all cuber officials became ashen white at this announcement.
