Chapter 1353: Chapter 1366. Entering the Nexus World



Jack saw icicles rain from the sky in front of them. These icicles were like ice swords falling from heaven, impaling the night hunters and killing them with a single strike.

"That is Hail of Ice Calamity, a non-standard spell for Elementalist," Peniel said.

Master also cast his standard spells that were off cooldown. In a short time, the path leading to the portal was filled with the bodies of night hunters.

"Go into that portal!" Jack told everyone. He let the others go in first as he dealt with the night hunters that were still coming at them.

Master commanded his still surviving minions to block the night hunters as everyone entered the portal.

When Master landed next to the portal, Jack said to him, "To be honest, I half-expected you to turn on us after seeing the portal."

"… What are you going to do if that happens?" Master asked.

"Oh, I'm confident that won't happen," Jack said.

Master just glanced at Jack without giving a response.

"Just as you find it easy to predict what I'm going to do due to my do-gooder personality, I also find it easy to predict what you are going to do based on your selfish and greedy nature. I know you won't let the chance to get the divine heritage slip your hands."

Master simply harrumphed at Jack's statement. He vented his frustration by using his spells to blast the night hunters around them.

After Grace and Spring Crown who were guarding the rear entered the portal, Jack moved toward it as well. Master saw Jack's attempt and he cast Wind Jet. His body shot past Jack and he entered the portal before Jack.

"So childish," Jack muttered and entered the portal, leaving Master minions that continued blocking the night hunters.

Jack experienced the same feeling as when he entered a dungeon. He went through what seemed like a tunnel of light with his mana sense sensing the familiar mana he had fused with when he was in the incorporeal state.

He came out at the garden outside the Council of Charite's mansion which he had visited during his incorporeal state. The others were standing and looking around with confused expressions.

"We are not yet out?" Freddie asked.

"This is the nexus world," Jack explained. "The main exit to the outside world should be here. We have to find it to escape this place."

He then looked back, making sure the night hunters didn't follow them here. He didn't see anything that looked like a portal, but he could sense the doorway there.

No night hunters appeared. It seemed that those creatures had no access to the pathway between worlds.

Jack noticed everyone was still wearing their equipment.

"Good. There is no hidden rune diagram here that seals our abilities," Jack remarked.

"There is," Master said. "But the function of the rune diagram in this nexus world and the one we destroyed in the battle royale world is simply to maintain the enchantment that is placed on us when we first entered this dimension. Once the enchantment is broken, we will stay unsealed until we reentered this realm."

"Great. This means we have a fighting chance. Let's go, there is still one person I need to save," Jack said.

"Hold!" Master called. "Against a being with God's power, we stand no chance even if our abilities are unsealed. If you truly want to go up against such a being and want me to succeed in giving us a fighting chance, you'll need to tell me everything you know."

"Why are we going up against such a being? I thought our primary focus is to escape?" Saddie asked.

"We might need to defeat the being for that." Jack actually didn't know that. But since he didn't know for sure, he didn't exactly lie. Master didn't bother to disagree with his statement. Whether these people could escape or not mattered not to him.

"If we find the exit while exploring this place, then I promise those of you who want to leave can leave first," Jack said.

"Then, let's hurry and find the exit," Freddie said. He had mana sense. He roughly felt the links when he was on the way here just now. He might be able to identify and differentiate between the main exit and the portals to the other worlds within this dimension.

The others said they want to search around the place as well, even if they didn't have mana sense or knew what exactly they were looking for.

Before they left, Jack asked them to form a party with him. He also sent the party invitation to Master.

Grace and Spring Crown stayed with Jack and Master. Master was still staring at Jack waiting for an explanation.

So, Jack told Master, most of everything Talia had told him. About what happened to this faction. About Euphosine who had Joy's divine heritage and used it to create this dimension as a place to carry out her sick games.

Master, Grace, and Spring Crown listened silently.

After Jack finished his tale, Master asked, "You spoke as if you have come here before… You are definitely with us all the time. How do you learn about all this?"

Jack had omitted the part where he used his incorporeal state to come to this nexus world. He didn't plan to let Master learn that he possessed this ability.

Jack's silence showed Master that Jack had no intention to answer the question. Master knew he won't be able to force Jack to answer, so he didn't bother asking a second time.

Master said, "After hearing your tale, I assume you intend on saving this Talia. I have no intention to do that. You can do that on your own if you want to."

"How do you plan to deal with Euphosine?" Jack asked. In his quest's description, it said that he needed to resolve the situation in this faction to help Talia escape. That's why he decided to ask Master's help. He suspected Talia won't agree to escape if Euphosine's situation wasn't dealt with. There was also the matter of the other prisoners participating in different games that Saddie mentioned.

"I will need to go to the altar hall…"

They heard panic shouts when Master was still speaking. They turned to the voice and saw Stefan and Naomi run toward them. Chasing behind the two was a horde of living children statues."
