Chapter 190: Am I A Protagonist Or Something?!

"Shall we get going then?" I smiled while the beasts nodded with a sense of urgency. They knew now that an overlord of the forest had died, the true ruler would find out what was happening. If that wasn't bad enough, the other overlords of the forest might also find out about the death of the Black-furred flame lion meaning that they had even more trouble coming their way if the true overlord was not enough.

"Follow me" The leader of the rabbits nodded before turning into a streak of lighting and moving a few dozen meters in almost a second before appearing next to the stone podium.

I also instantly flashed before turning flickering next to the rabbit while my eyes flashed with golden electricity.

"What is this?" I asked while the rest of the beasts walked over.

"We don't know. We were just told to protect it no matter the price we have to pay..." It went silent as anger started to boil deep within it.

"Who told you to protect it?" I raised a brow

"The voice..." It replied mysteriously, and seeing this, I did not ask further as I knew it might cause more damage than gain.

"Do you know why you have to protect it?" I crossed my arms and activated divine eyes to their full power.

"No..." The rabbit had a solemn expression on its face that made it look slightly cute.

"Its okay" I smiled and floated upwards to pat the rabbit on the head before dropping back to the ground and looking at the podium with the same intensity as last time. After a few seconds of this though, I gave up and simply asked 

'Hey Hela, what do you think of this?' 

[It is a treasure alright. One thing though, it is littered with runic traps that will trigger and vaporize anyone who tries to take it. The beasts are a mere diversion from the monstrosity these traps are..]

'Do you think the true overlord of the forest did this on purpose?'

[Pfft! Of course not, are you an idiot or something? The true overlord of the forest would at least have to be a few thousand years old and on top of that, a being on the astral plane of existence. There is no way such a strong being can show up out of nowhere. Plus, if they are angels or a being with divine energy there is no way that I wouldn't be able to feel their presence. Anyway, these runes are natural. Think of them as the thorns on a rose, or maybe even the stingers of a poison ivy leaf.]

I paused and thought for a bit before asking again 'Do you think we can break it?' 

[The runes? Of course! We have divine energy, how could we not be able to break it. I'll just navigate you on what to do and how to move your arcane mana to break all the runes at once, okay?]

Hearing this, my eyes widened however, I did not get too excited too quickly as I still had another question on my mind.

'What is this treasure?' 

[We'll see when we get past the traps first. It has a strong aura around it that does not allow the divine eyes to see through and analyze the piece of junk]

When I heard the word Junk, I could not help but look at the plane podium with a raised brow.

'Junk?'

[You know, the thing inside that spherical thing]

'There is something inside that?' I inwardly exclaimed.

[Sigh... I forget how stupid you can be sometimes.]

Before I could retort, a hologram of what I was supposed to do and how I was supposed to direct the mana appeared in front of my eyes. Of course, no one else could see it.

The beasts watched me as Isawyed my hands left and right as if I was dancing, after a bit of time passing, they looked at me with even more complicated expressions when they saw sweat pouring down my face as if I had run for hundreds of kilometers without rest.

*Crack*

*Shatter*

However, the thing that had the most surprising was the sudden lighting up of thousands of extremely small runes that spread throughout the podium and on the ground, growing 2-meters away from the center of the podium. Eventually, all those runes shattered like glass over the power and precision of a hammer.

*sigh*

Finally letting out a sigh, I looked at my work of art with satisfaction, however, the silence immediately broke after the sound of Hela entered my head.

[Oh my god...]

Words that I had never heard Hela say in the last 2 years entered my mind, making me immediately excited for what I was about to gain from getting whatever was inside.

'What is it!?' My eyes glimmered

[An inheritance crystal!]

My happiness dropped a little.

'Oh, really? Good for you'

[...]

'What?'

[Analyzing...]

[Analysis complete!]

I slowly grasped onto the marble-sized crystal that had been released from the podium. I could visibly see my hands trembling the moment they touched the marble that seemed to hold a cosmos inside of it.

'W-what do I do with this!?' I inwardly screamed.

[Eat it]

'EAT IT!?' I shouted in confusion 

[Yes, eat it. Since you have the absolute-consumption skill, it should automatically be converted to its most useful features while anything that would cause harm to the body would automatically be destroyed and consumed.]

'So you are saying that I should not trust it?' I was super confused now.

[No! Just eat it already damnit! Do it before anyone realizes what you had done]
