Chapter 394 394: Whose Fault Is It?

"It's time for you to be free..." The words were simple yet meaningful.

Even though the one who spoke didn't reveal their face, but from the voice, it was clearly a woman.

The Goddess of Nature raised her head. "Who are you? And how did you get here?"

After the Goddess of Nature looked carefully at the person before her, even she failed to see through the cloak. "Cloak of Yehua? It's not something that everyone can use... No wonder you were able to hide from his perception and reach here."

"Who are you?" She asked again.

The cloaked woman didn't answer right away. She removed her hood, revealing her face. However, the Goddess of Nature was still confused as she had never seen that woman before.

The woman was clearly younger than thirty. Although she was strong, but not strong enough to be able to stand against a Holy Lord. Despite that, there was something quite different about her.

The Goddess of Nature was quite intrigued. When the woman took off the cloak, the Goddess of Nature was able to sense something that she couldn't before. It was a trace of a familiar aura!

"You... You inherited his legacy? Hah, he helped Karyk create this prison for me and his inheritor came to free me?" The Goddess of Nature appeared slightly upset. For thousands of years, no one came here and today, two people came one after another?

"You didn't tell me you were behind this prison?" The young woman frowned. As she spoke, she wasn't looking at the Goddess of Nature. Instead, it appeared more as if she was talking to herself. "If that's the case, won't she hate us? Isn't it a bad idea to free her?"

"Do you think I wanted to come here? Even I don't want to take the risk of freeing this demoness! She hates me after all!" A voice echoed in the head of the woman. "However, whose fault is it that you lost the chance of getting the Ancestral Staff? Without that, we can't achieve anything! I have no choice but to take this risk!"

"Whose fault is it that we lose the Ancestral Staff? Isn't that your fault? You told me to approach Gabriel and have him work for us!" The woman yelled in anger.

She couldn't believe that she was being blamed for it after she was already injured because of it!

If Gabriel was here, he would've been surprised as well to see who this person was! He had already met this person a few times and even travelled together!

The woman who rushed inside the Tomb this time was none other than the woman who had first approached Gabriel with the idea of robbing the Academy! She was the Holy Priestess of Darkness, Lira!

When she came here, she didn't expect Gabriel to come as well. As soon as she saw Gabriel outside the tomb, she was slightly worried, wondering if Gabriel somehow found out about their plan!

Fortunately, she soon realized that it was a coincidence for Gabriel to be here. Thanks to the cloak, she managed to hide her presence and wait for Gabriel to leave before taking action, just to be safe!

However, even as she did all that, she had no idea that the one who told him to come here had a hand in the creation of this Tomb as well!

The Goddess of Nature was slightly surprised to see Lira talk to herself. It didn't appear as if the woman was crazy.

"Could it be...?" The Goddess of Nature frowned as she thought of something. Her eyes shone with beautiful golden light.

Not only did her vision improve with the golden light, but it also allowed her to see through what others couldn't! Now that the suppression was weaker, she was allowed to use some of her abilities already.

"It's you!" The Goddess of Nature roared, seeing a small fragment of an injured soul hidden inside the woman. No wonder she was talking to herself! It wasn't that she was talking to herself but more as if she was talking to that soul fragment which was hiding inside her to heal itself!

She was so angry that she wanted to break the shackles and kill the woman and destroy that soul fragment!

The injured soul fragment trembled a little, sensing the killing intent.

"And here I thought, after being trapped here, you would have grown calmer. It looks like it had the opposite effect!" The small soul fragment came out of the body of Lira momentarily, taking a humanoid shape that no one but the Goddess of Nature could see!

The real shape that the soul fragment took was that of a human. The human had long black hair that came down to his waist. His eyes were pitch black, as if his eyes were where all the darkness in the entire world resided.

On the back of the man's hand was a pitch black mark, which was the origin of the Element of Darkness! It was the Mark of Darkness!

Outside the Tomb of Gods, Gabriel stood in silence, still trying to think just why he was sent here by the mirror.

Since Gabriel didn't speak, the other youngsters didn't dare to move either. They were worried that if they tried to leave, they were going to offend Gabriel and be killed.

On the other hand, Gabriel didn't think about those people at all.

'The mirror hinted that the key is the clue to getting what I want. And this key led me to this Tomb. That must mean the tomb has something that can help me explore the Garden of Legacy. But I don't think I found anything like that.'

'Could it be the Goddess of Nature? That can't be. There's no way I could free her. She shouldn't be what the Mirror sent me here for... But then what?'

Gabriel looked back at the Stone Tablet which was surrounded by the four stone pillars.

'Other than the Goddess of Nature, there were only the Heavenly Stones. Is that what the Mirror meant?'

The more Gabriel observed the entrance of the tomb, the more he seemed to realise something.

The Heavenly Stones that he saw inside looked as if they were chaotically placed at regular intervals, however slowly, he was realizing that there was something more to it.

The Tomb and the four stone pillars, the suppression room with all the Chains... And the pattern that the Heavenly Stones were creating... All of that appeared to have something in common.

"Do I really need the Heavenly Stones to explore that garden? Do I need to get back inside again?"
