Chapter 555: Getting a Legendary ltem

Michael lowered his swords from the girl's neck and sheathed them back.

He was actually quite surprised to see the girl resembling Azazel's ghostly state. But what stunned Michael was the girl's power. She would be at the Half Immortal stage if she was in his world.

"I just wanted to see how our otherworldly friend is doing," Catalie said with a smile,

"Ghost, this is Catalie. Catalie Lise Leavitt,"

"Ghost? So it's true?" The girl's eyes opened wide,

"Can you please tell me what's going on here?" Michael frowned. He had enough of the cryptic messages and wanted to know how these people knew him.

"Follow me," Catalie nodded,

Then she hovered away, leading him towards the door behind the throne. Michael followed Catalie behind as Amaryll walked by his side.

"My father, who built this castle, gave me control of every room, except," Catalie paused for a moment, waving her hand. Then, the metal door slowly opened, revealing the brightly lit corridor as they resumed their journey.

"Except a room in the far end of the castle," Catalie said, floating before Michael,

"Until when uncle Ken arrived at Everlight, I had no what was inside the room,"

"What's inside the room?" Michael couldn't help asking,

Unexpectedly, Catalie shook her head,

"No one knows. Uncle Ken just told us that there is only one who can open the door, you,"

Michael exhaled as he was tired of being shocked by them. He silently followed her, thinking about his connection to Don's universe. The question of why he was in Don's universe in his physical form kept nagging his mind.

"Maybe the future me visited Everlight?" Michael questioned himself. His thoughts made sense as he couldn't find any more possibilities. How could they know about Michael if he hadn't visited Everlight?

"So this Uncle Ken of yours told you about me?" Michael questioned Catalie and Amaryll,

"Not until recently," Amaryll answered Michael instead,

"Reghys had foreseen your arrival. She kept saying four-headed monster had woken up,"

Michael immediately thought of the hydra he saw in stormville mountain. Now after hearing Amaryll, his brain started to make the connections. He recalled Hunter's words to him,

"You reek of the Queen's scent, Ghost. If I am right, and I usually am, you had already come across one of her generals,"

At that time, Michael only guessed it could be the hydra in the stormville mountain,

"When I say generals, it's not the human generals you might have met. These abominations could end all life on a planet within a few hours. So imagine what their queen is capable of,"

Hunter's words sounded in his mind. There was also no doubt in Michael's mind that the hydra Reghys dreamed of and the general Hunter talked about were the same.

"We should talk about this here, Sister Amaryll. Let's get somewhere private and let Uncle Ken explain everything to him," Catalie's voice became serious as the playfulness on her face disappeared. Soon, neither of them uttered a word as Michael followed Catalie in silence until they reached the end of the corridor.

However, there was no door before them but a gray wall.

"Through here," Catalie placed her ethereal hand on the gray wall as the wall slowly faded away. It was an illusion, but a great one at that. After the wall completely disappeared out of existence, what stood before them was a spacious hall lit with several braziers. The golden light radiated from the brazier illuminated the statue and a door built with shiny black metal.

The trio slowly stepped into the hall. Michael's legs automatically walked toward the door with countless engraved symbols and runes. However, his eyes weren't looking at the door. Instead, he was looking at the twenty feet statute of a man.

The stature resembled a man holding two swords as his long coat fluttered behind him. Although the face was not distinguishable, Michael knew the man. It was him. Someone had built a statue of him and put it in the hall.

But why and how? That was Michael's question.

"That's you," suddenly, Michael heard a deeper, wilder, and stronger voice. It was a sort of heavy, golden voice. The voice made him turn around, and when he did, he saw a white-furred lion with majestic wings gracefully walking toward them.

"Knight," Michael mumbled after being stunned by the lion. It had such grace. No matter how hard Michael tried, he couldn't sense Knight's cultivation level. However, he felt the distortion in the space around him, indicating Knight's power.

Being mesmerized by Knight, Michael almost failed to notice the gray-haired man walking behind Knight.

"It's… it's…really him…The Ghost…he is a myth no more," the gray-haired man stuttered as his face became pale.

"Do I know you?" Michael asked,

"No no no…but I know you. Only a few people know you,"

"But now he's the only one," Knight interjected, circling Michael.

"Please tell me what the hell is going on here," Michael asked the old man,

"By the way, he is Uncle Ken," Amaryll quickly introduced Ken to Michael,

"To explain, I need to first tell you where I came from," Ken, the gray-haired old man, sighed as Knight came in front of Michael,

"I came to Everlight from the future. So everything I know and am about to tell you has happened in the future, and that future has become our past,"

Michael listened to the old man without batting an eye or uttering a word,

"In the future or the time I came from had mentions about an otherworlder who visited Everlight in dire times. There wasn't much about this otherworlder except his name Ghost. According to the ancient scripts, Ghost helped Everlight and fought beside his majesty Don's descendants. But only a few knew his origins. In return for his help, his majesty's descendants and the founders' descendants built this room," Michael looked around the room. His heart beat raised while he tried to wrap his mind around what Ken said.

"There was no mention of why Ghost helped or what he received in return. However, I believe this room contains more about your visit to Everlight in the future," As he said, Ken took a couple of steps and touched the metal door,

"Before I traveled to this timeline from mine, we faced something that threatened all of our existence. At that time, we were desperate. We tried to open this door as we believed if we could somehow summon the legendary Ghost, we could survive. But we failed,"

When Ken looked at Michael, he could see the pain in Ken's eyes.

"Only you can open this door, Lord Ghost. Whatever you're looking for, it's in there," Under their curious gazes filled with excitement and anticipation, Michael stepped towards the door, placed his hand, and expected something to happen.

As soon as he touched the door, Michae felt electricity running through his spine, followed by acute pain in his brain.

[System back online…]

Michael heard the system's sound and felt a tremendous pressure lifted from his shoulder. He wanted to question the system, but before he could talk to the system, the door produced a creaking noise, slowly opening.

Everyone took a step back as the door opened inch by inch. They all waited for the door to completely open, revealing what the room had been hiding for centuries.

Finally, the door wholly opened, and they all saw an empty room with a shield and a golden parchment inside a glass box. Michael was surprised because he had imagined a shield in his mind, and the shield inside the glass box looked just like the one he had imagined. It was black, round and had a crimson red skull in the center.

There was nothing besides the glass box in the center of the room. Michael did not wait for them but walked towards the glass box. When he reached the glass box, he cautiously looked around it to see an opening, yet found nothing.

"Did you feel that?" Suddenly Knight questioned the others. Michael looked over his shoulder to see everyone looking confused,

"I can't feel any energy," Even Knight wasn't spared from the phenomenon. Finally, Michael turned around and sensed no power coming from them, none at all. At that point in time, everyone became powerless.

"The void spell," Michael immediately recognized the phenomenon as the work of a void spell.

"You know about this, don't you?" Instead of panicking, Knight remained calm.

Michael nodded, but after nodding, he turned around to look at the shield.

"I have a feeling we should read that parchment," Michael said,

"Catalie, open that box," Amaryll frowned as Catalie waved her hand.

"I…I can't…" Catalie shook her head.

After seeing Catalie shaking her head, Amaryll rushed at the glass box and tried to lift it, except she couldn't even move the glass box an inch.

"Let me try," Michael placed his palm on the glass box,

Boom!

Shockingly, Michae punched the glass box. Just hearing the sound of his fist hitting the glass box pained Amaryll's hand. But he beat again and again as the glass box started to crack.

"Shit, you're bleeding," Amaryll noticed the blood on his palm but did not slow down. His persistence surprised Knight, and he watched Ghost break the glass box with his hands without giving a damn about the blood.

Cling!

Finally, after withstanding hundreds of punches, the glass box shattered, and so did Michael's knuckles. Still, Michael ignored the pain, reaching out for the shield with his broken hands.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for acquiring a Legendary class Item, The Ghost Shield. The Host's Darkness manipulation has increased to 25%]

As soon as Michael grabbed the shield, he heard the system notifications in his mind.

[Does the host wish to convert Life energy into Arch energy? The conversion will cost the host 50,000 badass points. After conversion, the host will be able to use cultivation power for a week]

"About time system,"

Amaryll and everyone in the room were stunned when they saw Michael turn around with a grin on his face. Of course, no one with broken arms would grin except him.
