Chapter 75 Illusion God Alister
<You might lose your life in the process. Do you still want to do it?>
The old remnant spirit replied in a serious tone which was enough to scare away the regular youngsters.
“I am willing to.”
However, Leo was not a regular youngster as he underwent more trials and tribulations than anyone in this world.
Just the pain from the ‘Forbidden Curse’ was enough to make almost anyone commit suicide; however, Leo didn’t give up on his life; instead, he fought and still fighting for it.
<Looks like we are fated to meet from the beginning>
When he saw Leo’s determined eyes, Odren started laughing and said, <The item in the [Diamond] section of the [Treasure room] might help you. However, I don’t keep my hopes up before getting my hands on it>
“What? There is an item to break this slave seal?”
Leo’s eyes brightened when he heard the old remnant spirit’s words and asked in an excited tone.
<What did I say?>
The old remnant spirit scoffed at Leo.
“Okay. What should I do to get my hands on that item?”
Even though Leo didn’t know what item was waiting inside the [Diamond] section, he wanted it.-.
Even though Leo never showed a pained expression on his face, he suffered unbearable pain from the ‘Forbidden curse’.
Because of this pain, Leo helped the Earth Griffin and took in the abyssal eagle as he knew how painful it was for them.
<How long do you need to recover?>
The old remnant spirit nodded his head and asked Leo.
“It will take thre hours; however, if I have to return to my peak condition, I need six hours.”
Since the old man talked about life-death, Leo didn’t hesitate to mention six hours to get to his peak condition.
<Hm. I can give you four hours. Get a good rest and try to eat the Innate elemental spirit fruits>
The old man nodded his head and asked him to get some rest.
“What about the items from the [Platinum] section? Can I buy them?”
Suddenly, Leo asked the old man, who nearly made him cough blood.
<You don’t have access to that section. So, of course, you can’t buy the items from it>
The old spirit shook his head and explained, <Didn’t I say there will be a final round? As long as you pass it, you will get access to the last two sections>
“Really? What is that round about?”
Leo hurriedly asked the old man about it.
<For now, I can only tell you one thing. Unlike the earlier rounds, you might lose your life in this round. So, prepare yourself for a life and death battle in the final round>
Even though he knew that he could not die in the [Treasure land], Leo didn’t doubt the old man’s words when he mentioned that Leo might lose his life to get his hands on the final item.
<Anyway, I have some things to take care of. I will come back in four hours. Be prepared by then>
The old remnant spirit didn’t say much before disappearing from his place.
‘I wonder what kind of life and death situation I will be facing in this so-called last round?’
Leo raised his brows and decided to strengthen himself a little.
‘Let’s start with the Earth innate elemental spirit fruit.’
Soon, Leo sat down on the ground and started eating the brown coloured fruit.
……
In the [Treasure room],
‘Swoosh’
The old remnant spirit appeared in front of the mirror and injected a small portion of his energy into it.
‘Swoosh’
Two projections appeared above the mirror as soon as he injected his energy.
“Have you finally decided to host the final round?”
One projection had a dragon head, whereas the other had a white mask on his face.
They asked the old remnant spirit with excited looks as soon as they appeared.
“Yes. Prepare your participants and let’s conduct the final round for the [Diamond] section of the [Treasure room].”
The old remnant spirit nodded.
“Odren, my participant is always ready.”
“My participants are also ready.”
The two projections were excited as they said their participants were ready.
“But, my participant is not.”
Odren scoffed at them and asked them to wait for six hours.
“We have waited for years and waiting for another six hours is not a big thing.”
“Yes. As long as we complete this round, we can return back to our masters.”
The other projections didn’t have any problems waiting for another six hours.
“By the way, did you explain the rules to your participants? It will be a real life and death match like our masters planned. The winner gets the item from the [Diamond] section.”
Odren was not as excited as them as he calmly asked the two projections.
“Yes. After buying the items from the previous sections, they became curious about the final item in the [Diamond] section.”
“My participant is also the same. However, I am getting annoyed with his blatant threats. He is using his grandfather’s name to threaten me.”
The two projections replied with a calm look.
“Alister, make a small reality space between the three [Treasure lands]. The three participants will fight each other in that reality domain.”
In the next second, the dragon head projection asked the masked projection.
“Is it really necessary to put them through a life and death fight? My partcipant is really in need of that item. Can’t we make an exception?”
After hesitating a bit, the old remnant spirit asked the two projections.
“These are the orders from our masters. Sorry, we can’t make an exception.”
The two projections didn’t hesitate as they replied to the old remnant spirit.
“Anyway, let’s meet after six hours in that ‘Reality Domain’.”
The two projections disappeared as soon as they finished their words, making the old remnant spirit shake his head in disappointment.
“I hope Leo can win against their participants and get that item. This human world’s future depends on him.”
The old remnant spirit muttered to himself as he recalled the memories left behind by the main body in its head.
…
‘Ding,
The host’s talent [Earth Manipulation] has failed.
As for Leo, he didn’t know that the old remnant spirit had finished its meeting with the remnant spirits of the other [Treasure lands]; instead, he was a little disappointed to receive the system notification.
