Chapter 178: 178: The Secret

Nostria resumed their activities despite the looming war that was about to happen. Considering the power of the thirteen beings that emerged out from the Labyrinth of Simak, people still worried about the incoming large-scale battle.

A war would undoubtedly affect every aspect of the kingdom. Their economy, military, and people's life will be depending on the result of the war. Either they will become the biggest kingdom or being wiped out of history depending on this single war.

Some already fantasized about the grandeur in the near future while others were depressed about the worst outcome.

"I want to buy a bag of flour please," said a housewive in a market.

"Ah, yes, yes, that would be three bronze coins please," said the merchant.

"I see that your business is surely going well," said the housewive while paying.

"Yes, thank you, I hope we win the war though, this magnificent little kingdom,"

The merchant paused as he looked at the figures around them doing their activities. All sorts of beings were here, whether you were a halfling, a demi-human, they were all welcomed warmly. Just follow the general rules and have a conscience, then one would live harmoniously with the other.

"I hope too," said the housewive as she left a smile before bringing the flour bag home.

For the multiple races, Nostria was a little paradise. Despite their weak cultivation levels compared to the others, they were inarguably the happiest.

All of this happened under one ruler, the only child of the first king. The queen that despite her fragile and childish behavior under her skin, was a firm and kind ruler.

Currently, she was resting in her grand chamber that had a pinkish hue. Her hair had changed back to her usual silver hair that draped around her pillow. Her beautiful figure was covered with a blanket as not even her feet were visible. Her peaceful expression brought ease to the one maid beside her.

Fei silently heaved a sigh before leaving her chamber quietly. While slowly closing the door, a young man already stood beside her waiting for an explanation.

"Follow me, Lyon," said Fei as she walked toward a certain room.

It was neither a long nor short walk, but it was sure a room that he had never seen before. The door was plain as Fei casually opened it up with a light push.

"This is?" exclaimed Lyon as he noticed the small room only contain one item in them. A type of hieroglyph stone was etched on the surface of the opposite wall.

With a sigh, Fei began to explain, "What you are about to hear is probably quite ridiculous but it is the only explanation I can give you."

"This stone is older than Nostria, however, it was not a product of an excavation. This room remains the same as the very first time it was discovered."

"You mean?!"

"Yes, the room existed before the castle was built. However, I will not tell you history lessons," said Fei before continuing, "After some time it was discovered, the castle was built and little Sylvianna was born in this world."

Fei paused before letting go of a sigh, "One fateful day, the little Sylvianna wondered the castle. You know how a kid got excited with massive places right? That's what happened to her too. Her excited and curious nature back then led her to this room."

Her mind wandered as the image from the past resurfaced.

While bitting her little thumb a little figure stood in front of the plain door. Her silver hair and red eyes were full of energy as she pondered at the room behind the door. With a cheeky smile, she pushed the door with her frail hands. Though it was light for the adult, it was heave for the child.

*creak

The door was opened as the little girl was panting. She straightened up her figure as she wiped the sweat on her forehead in one single swipe.

"Fufufu, nothing can stop me," said the little girl as she walked to the middle of the room.

"Uwaah, what is that?" said the little girl as she noticed the stone with weird engraving on them.

The writing was unrecognizable as the little Sylvianna approached it. Her curiosity made her lifted her hand unconsciously and touched the stone.

*ding

The sound was only heard in her little mind as her pupils were immediately shrunken. Her fluttering hair gradually turned black obsidian.

"Ah, miss there you are, I was looking all over for... you?" asked Fei who was a lot younger at that time.

"Heh," the little Sylvianna smirked as she launched herself at the unsuspecting Fei. Her crazed eyes were filled with bloodthirst no a thirst for battle.

Fei closed her eyes as her mind back to the present.

"This was the remainder for me," said Fei as she lifted her shirt and revealed her six-pack abs. A scar was visible as part of the skin ruptured. It was apparent that a massive force of a blow was enacted on her body.

"Wow," exclaimed Lyon in awe.

"I know, when she is in that state her strength got significantly multiplied but of course the price was her sanity," said Fei with a sigh.

"No, I mean, can you lift it up a bit higher," said Lyon with his nose rapidly breath in and out.
