Chapter 99: An Old Man
As night fell, Louis had to stand guard for the second half after resting for the first half.
The night was quiet, more so than usual.
As he watched the stars bloom above him and the distant moon, he was pensive about what had happened earlier.
He didn’t know why, but he felt the three dungeons wanted to tell him something. He just didn’t understand it. He had no clues either, but several things were mentioned in those dungeons that alluded to those keys and that cube, as if they had to meet at some point.
The Ancient Vampire said it would bring about the revival of the Ancient Empire, but since a beast had said it in a dungeon, should he take it so seriously?
They could perfectly well be like in video games; they were set up to say something specific.
Despite knowing this, he remained somewhat uneasy.
He pulled out the keys and looked at them. Then he looked at the bucket, turning it over several times, but in the end, he put it away.
’Maybe I’m just thinking too much.’
He then pulled out the Grimoire he had obtained this time.
’Even that explosion didn’t scratch it. As expected of an ancient grimoire.’ He thought. Its interior was intact as well.
Looking through the pages, he found teachings on different blood magics. There were seven of them, but some were basic and came with their respective power runes.
