Chapter 201 - 201 The Holy Light's Illumination
201 The Holy Light’s Illumination
The God’s Core was a legendary item left behind by the fallen Mythical Lord. It had all the knowledge and insights of the Mythical Lord when they were alive.
If Su Wan could use it properly, she could become a Lord of the Mythical level!
Su Wan tried to remember everything she knew or had read about the Mythical Level.
The power from the God’s Core wrapped around Su Wan’s body, transforming her. If there were no obstacles, Su Wan could continue growing and reach the Mythical Level one day!
When Su Wan felt the power surge into her, she also got the memories of the previous Lord with it. The Lord who had owned this God’s Core was the Mythical Lord who had defeated the mythical beast!
‘Why do I feel like something is wrong?’
Legends said that the mythical beast had wreaked havoc in countless worlds, so the Mythical Lord had defeated it and left it here.
However, it was difficult for the beast to achieve true death. Therefore, it was in a perpetual state of sleep.
However, the thing with sleep is that it doesn’t matter how long it is, the beast will wake up one day.
The information she knew was different from what she saw in the Mythical Overlord’s memories.
The memory showed her that the mythical beast had wanted to destroy the Overlord Plane. Thus, the Mythical Lord had joined forces with others to kill it.
‘But it feels like someone was fueling the conflict…’
Su Wan thought about it. She couldn’t help feeling that somebody had fueled the fight between the mythical beast and the Mythical Overlord.
Su Wan felt like there was no need for a fight, but things had escalated. Eventually, the mythical beast had been defeated, and the Mythical Overlord had also fallen, leaving behind the God’s Core.
Su Wan only felt that there was more to it, but she wasn’t certain. At the moment, she just wanted to leave and find Xu Yuan.
Meanwhile, Xu Yuan was still in the place where the mythical beast’s brain was.
“Your Majesty… this brain looks like a cocoon,” said the Thorn Fairy.
The mythical beast’s brain, which was made up of countless blue butterflies, had now turned into a huge cocoon.
‘Hmm… perhaps the damage caused by the Light-Type back then was just too severe…’
Even if the mythical beast awoke, the body would be a burden for it. “It might as well turn into a butterfly and abandon this body,” said Xu Yuan.
The Thorn Fairy realized something. The mythical beast was extremely powerful. A mythical Lord wouldn’t have been able to cause so much damage to it. What really made it fall asleep was someone among the Light-Types.
The Light-Type who had fought the beast had severely injured it. The Mythical Lord had inflicted the last blow that defeated it.
When the Thorn Fairy told him about her realization, Xu Yuan nodded. As they talked, the scene changed again.
There was a dazzling holy light that penetrated the cocoon.
Beams of light penetrated the entire cocoon. The hero from Light-Types had left a backup plan!
The Thorn Fairy gasped. She was in disbelief. Even after so many years, the power from the Light-Types suppressed the mythical beast!
The whole place was filled with the singing of hymns as if a thousand people were chanting the same thing. Illusionary feathers floated in the sky.
The entire space seemed to be on fire!
“This is not good! This power is going to burn everything!” The Thorn Fairy panicked.
It wasn’t as though she hadn’t seen holy light before. But this time, it surpassed all she knew about it.
It wasn’t like she had never seen the power of the holy light. The terrifying holy light seemed to be burning everything it touched.
The powerful mythical giant beast was illuminated by the power of the holy light, and its interior began to burn. At this rate, the entire body of the mythical beast would be reduced to ashes!
“This is strange… why would the Light-Types target the mythical beast?”
While the Thorn Fairy panicked that the holy light might burn everything, Xu Yuan was concerned about the intentions of the Light-Types.
‘Are they so afraid of this beast that they don’t want to let it off, even after so many years?’ Xu Yuan wondered.
Xu Yuan was confused. Why were they so afraid? The simple reason that the mythical beast would wake up and seek the Light-Types for its revenge didn’t seem like a strong enough reason.
‘Did the Light-Types know that the beast would wake up again? Is that why they left this backup plan? Maybe they didn’t want countless others to be destroyed by the beast…’
Xu Yuan thought about many possibilities, but he wasn’t sure of them. He felt that something wasn’t right.
Only the mythical beast and the Light-Types knew the real truth at this point. Xu Yuan couldn’t expect the Light-Types to clear his doubts. He could only rely on the mythical beast to give him the truth.
Just then, a faint sigh sounded from somewhere.
“Your Majesty…,” said the voice.
The Thorn Fairy was shocked. “It’s the beast!”
Only the two of them were in that space. So, the words must have been from the mythical beast, since both of them hadn’t made a sound.
Xu Yuan focused on the faint voice. He was surprised. Xu Yuan had transmigrated recently in the Hero Plane. As for the mythical beast, it had been in deep sleep for numerous years.
Logically, it was impossible for the mythical beast to know about Xu Yuan. Why was it calling him “Your Majesty”?
