Chapter 224: Claire’s Law
However, despite the increased strength, Anvis felt a somewhat strange atmosphere surrounding Claire.
It was as if a piece that was originally whole suddenly revealed a certain flaw, yet it became more real.
The blonde half-elf girl did not hide anything about what happened to her and simply recounted her experience of exploring the castle, encountering that fragment, and entering the depths below to Anvis.
"...And then, at the very bottom of that spiral staircase passage, there was a slowly flowing crimson river of magma.
At the source of that river, I saw an extremely ancient stone altar, standing in the middle of a huge subterranean lava lake. At the top of the altar, in the center of the ancient magic array, there lay a peculiar crystal heart.
When I picked up that crystal heart, it suddenly merged into my body, and I couldn’t even find where it went.
After that, the altar suddenly collapsed, sinking into the lava lake, almost dragging me down with it, and the walls of the surrounding caves also began to tremble strangely.
I felt something was wrong, and when I escaped from the underground, the volcano suddenly erupted. Afterwards, I ran into Lord Baggsen who had also escaped, and that’s how it went."
