Chapter 37: White Gawd Into The Abyss
Chapter 37 White Gawd Into the Abyss
When the astronomy class ended, the night was already deep.
There was only one full moon high in the sky, and the moonlight was bright and clear.
...
Dark Demon walked on the narrow path, avoiding the crowd. He needed to find a corner with no one around to calm himself down.
The castle of Saint Marian was well-connected and there were golems patrolling every night.
He avoided the golems and found a place where the window could be opened. He sat on the edge of the window and raised his head to look at the full moon in the night sky .
When he saw the full moon so closely at the clock tower, it caused his mood to fluctuate uncontrollably, and his whole body became slightly hot.
The reason was that [Lust] was causing trouble!
[Lust+1] slowly floated across his field of vision made him realize the moon was the symbol of [Lust]!
Before this, he had never expected the connection between Seven Deadly Sin and the stars could be so close.
The deadly sins were known as the source of evil.
And the stars were known as the beginning of the gods.
Why could they be connected together?
What was the essence of so-called deadly sins?
...
Human thoughts were like a train.
Once it started, it was hard to stop.
Dark's gaze wandered, and suddenly he noticed a figure flashing by on the lower external bridge.
It looked like someone also couldn't restrain the loneliness at night.
...
White Gawd had confirmed that he had reached a crossroad in his life.
He had transferred his credits to Robert, leaving only 30 credits to himself.
And Robert, who had received 100 credits, was finally able to go to Professor Cazer to purchase 100 credits worth of [Phantom Magic Beast] production materials.
He heard that the production materials of [Phantom Magic Beast] were actually quite expensive, and the time when students could buy it with 100 credits was only at this beginner stage.
There was only one night left before the next magical lesson, and tonight was Robert's last chance.
This was originally a critical moment.
In fact, White should be staying by Robert's side to assist him with his homework.
But he slipped out while Robert went to find Professor Cazer.
It was the first time for White to go out alone at night.
When there was no one around, the oversized castle was inevitably painted with a trace of desertedness and gloom.
White was not a timid person, but he couldn't help holding his arms and shaking.
It wasn't until he came to an external bridge and focused his attention on the two-finger thick black book in his hand that the coldness gradually eased.
After he had checked that the moonlight could shine straight at the book, he opened the book cover under the moonlight and a short sentence caught his eyes.
[Go into the abyss, stare into the abyss. ]
Under the moonlight, the original flat text suddenly trembled in his field of vision before transforming into another text that he had never seen before but could understand.
→[Disperse the fog, see the truth, the full moon will lead you.]
...
The time when he got this book "Into the Abyss" was when he first entered the library on the second day of academy.
In order to complete the homework for the summoning class, he was looking for information about "Minotaur".
Then, he found this "Into the Abyss" hidden in the corner.
After confirming with Robert that only he could see the change of the text, White had a feeling of being "chosen".
His surname was Gawd and his blood was derived from the legendary "hero", but in fact, apart from being welcomed and admired by the students at the beginning, he didn't feel anything special as the "son of a hero".
Until he found this book!
...
"Full moon!"
A word that was fascinating in itself.
After more than a month of fun, he almost forgot about the book hidden in the drawer.
He only remembered the book when he looked directly at the full moon close in astronomy class.
He couldn't hold back his excitement and came here with a book.
When the moonlight shone on the paper for about fifteen seconds, the converted text changed again.
The pink mist rose up and converged into the shape of ➹(arrow), indicating him something.
White became ecstatic in his heart and immediately ran following the guidance of ➹.
...
Upstairs, Dark, who was sitting on the edge of the window, happened to witness everything, and saw the pink arrow that only a certain group of people could see, the look in his eyes gradually becoming strange.
"Should I stop him or ignore it?”
If it was yesterday, Dark would definitely ignore it.
But tonight, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.
He pulled out the sorting card, injected a trace of magic energy, and summoned DemiDevimon out.
"Go, follow."
"Yes!"
DemiDevimon immediately spread its wings and flew down.
And Dark also jumped down and walked quickly to the bridge downstairs.
With the sorting card in hand, he could clearly know where DemiDevimon was.
After passing the bridge, he didn't rush.
He kept a fixed distance, and only when he couldn't see White at all, he would speed up unhurriedly.
Time had passed by half past nine in the evening. Except for the dumb golem in the castle, no one else could be seen.
He followed all the way for ten minutes.
White was still walking forward, but Dark suddenly heard footsteps behind him!
With a thought, he quickly hid behind a statue of an unknown great magister and stood close to the statue.
The Magister's large robe successfully blocked his whole body.
The slightly rapid footsteps hurried past him without even noticing him.
Dark let out a sigh of relief when the sound completely disappeared and walked out slowly from behind the statue.
At this moment, the sorting card trembled suddenly.
Not long afterwards, DemiDevimon flew back.
→ It lost him!
...
"He seems to have spotted me. He suddenly quickened his pace and disappeared as soon as he turned!"
DemiDevimon explained in a low voice, guilt was written all over its face.
Dark nodded. "He didn't see you, right?"
He was not surprised that DemiDevimon would lose White.
After all, he was the son of a hero, and there were always some unknown special abilities. Maybe he had the legendary "sixth sense" and "seventh sense"?
The main question was whether DemiDevimon's appearance had been seen or not.
DemiDevimon shook its head hurriedly, “No!"
"Okay then."
Dark began to walk back.
‘Originally, there was no need to follow him.’
He didn't worry too much about it.
There were many uncertainties in Saint Marian castle.
The history of the castle was too old with many hidden secrets.
Who knew what would happen?
