Chapter 373: A Long Chat about the Upcoming Apocalypse

As the contract was successfully signed, everything on my part was finished, waiting for this old lizard to fulfill its part of the deal.

"Alright, now I will give you the items we agree upon," the old lizard said, and then it added, "here are the three promised items from me. as for the board over there, once I finish explaining the apocalypse to you, you can freely take it with you, or else you will be forcibly expelled from here and can't reach here again."

I nodded, as it seemed quite fair from such a twisted minded lizard. The old lizard waved its claw, and simply three items lay in front of me, littering in pure golden light like they were made of sacred materials.

"What are they made of to be this shiny?" I couldn't help myself to comment, and the old lizard simply sneered. "Girls," it only said this comment, while adding more!

I took the three items, glanced at them with great interest. One was a long spear, mighty and heavy that when I held it I felt all my body tremble under huge weight. "Don't try it now, this world isn't suited for such sacred treasures," the old lizard hurried to warn me, and I instantly stored the spear away.

It was even heavier than my huge shield! "Are they artifacts?"

"A very higher form than artifacts, you can consider them this way," it simply and vaguely answered my doubts.

I glanced at the second item, a token. It wasn't like my own token of the guild master rank, instead it was a big hexagonal token, bigger the size of my head, heavier than the spear!

I couldn't believe that, but my trembling body was evidence of that! I hurriedly stored it away, to glance finally at my third item, a small feather made of pure gold.

"It's a feather, how heavy could a feather be!" I thought to myself, but when I held it in my hands, it proved my own words wrong! it was extremely heavy, but slightly lighter than the spear no doubt.

I stored it away, as I glanced at the old lizard. "How can I use them?" I asked, as I couldn't use any one of them.

"Be patient until the apocalypse occurs, then you can use the three easily by bathing them in your blood."

"Bath this huge spear? Do you want me to die old lizard?!!"

"Kekeke, it would be a scene to marvel indeed, kekeke."

""

I didn't speak or reply over his rude words. this old lizard reminded me, somehow, with my old long lost friend; Shin.

"Alright, you only need a drop of your blood to make them function. However, you mustn't do that before the apocalypse occurs, or else they will be rendered worthless there."

I nodded while putting his warning to the heart. I wouldn't use them here anyway, as I had my own artifacts, demons, and a huge army of players on my side.

"What about the apocalypse?" I demanded, as this was still the only vague and most important thing this old lizard didn't speak of yet.

"Alright, don't be this impatient. I will tell you everything all of your enemies are aware of. You sure know of this world being divided into many galaxies and small hidden worlds, with kingdoms and empires reigning over it, right?"

I nodded and didn't reply, waiting for it to give me new things I never heard of.

"So, when I tell you this isn't the real face of the world, but a broken shattered phase of it, what will you say?"

"Who shattered it?" I asked, as I controlled my emotions not to show it any of my surprises or doubts.

"The previous witch, your ancestor," his answer this time managed to drive a shocked expression over my face, coupled with a short gasp. "What are you saying old lizard? Are you too old to say logical things? Or your memory started to go loose after all these years?!!"

I said, while expressing my doubts and disbeliefs. What did it mean for the witch to shatter the world into this? Why would she even do that? and what was the shape of the world before being shattered?

I had tons of questions, and more tons of doubts.

"Calm yourself, little witch, after all what she did was sadly the right choice at the time, sigh, I never thought a day would come and admit her wisdom in doing such a reckless unexpected move!"

Despite his words, I didn't see or feel any sadness or regret in its voice. "Tell me why she did it and tell me about the real shape of the world," I demanded.

"I can't tell you of the reason, as she planned to tell you herself in a suitable time and place. as for the world, its original shape was a huge flat land, known as the lands of the witch."

"She will tell me in person? Old lizard, she is dead! Long dead already!!"

"Don't worry yourself with such matters, when you reach her level of strength you will understand that death isn't the end of the journey, it's simply another path in it."

I was speechless, didn't know what to say to it. "So, this land of the witch is going to appear again?" I shifted the topic away from the useless debate that would end in a way I already expected.

"Smart little witch, yes that what will befall on every single creature living under this shattered universe."

"Then it shouldn't be a bad thing, right? After all we are going to live in the complete whole world, our own real world, again."

"That would be true if the cause that forced the witch to shatter the world in the first place doesn't exist."

The simple and rarely wise reply of this old wizard made me realize something; who was the one behind making the shattered world regain its unity? It wasn't the witch for sure, so for sure it was her enemies!
