Chapter 713: Chapter 713 Diviner and Diviner

At seven in the evening, Shard left his home and, after reaching Midshire Fort, descended the mountain to find Sister Delphine awaiting him. Two other nuns from the Spiritual Practice Order were with her, but ultimately, only the leader of the Order followed Shard into the mountains.

The pair retraced Shard’s route down the mountain, during which he also explained that there were other people in his home in Tobesk, but they were absolutely trustworthy, so the nun did not mind.

Whether by bad luck or not, they encountered an evil spirit on their way up the mountain. This evil spirit manifested as a headless man wielding a firewood knife, his body carved with terrifying cryptic texts. As an inexplicable fog emerged, it charged toward the two figures navigating through the dense forest with its knife raised.

Since they were entering the mountains at night, it was Shard, with his Night Watchman at hand, who first spotted the evil spirit. The strength of the mountain’s spirits had grown to a terrifying level following two earthquakes. He prepared to respond, but before he could act, Sister Delphine cast a ball of fire in the direction of the evil spirit.

The evil spirit didn’t even have the chance to leave a last word before it was burnt to nothing.

“The Fire of the Primordial has an unusual effect on souls,”

said the nun of the Eleven Rings calmly, then signaled Shard to continue leading the way.

By seven forty, the two arrived in front of the ruined tower in the mountains and jumped into the basement under Shard’s guidance.

Moonlight streamed through the door without panels and illuminated the Traveler’s Gate in the cellar through the trapdoor.

“Sister, this is it,”

Shard introduced.

The gate was extremely heavy; it was Dr. Schneider who helped get it to the second floor on Saint Delan Square. When Shard moved it out of the hidden wall, he almost ran out of breath and was mocked by a voice in his head for “overexerting himself in the afternoon.”

Sister Delphine reached out and caressed the wooden panel of the door:

“No problem, I will wait here for you to open the door.”

“Alright.”

Shard nodded, pulled the key from the door, and hesitated before walking toward the wall at the end of the basement. The process of opening the door by illuminating the wall with Spiritual Light was bound to be seen by the nun. Although it exposed his secret, he had to do it for the safety of his family.

A corner of the Ring of Fate was revealed, and beneath the brass aura of Space-Time, the hidden wall disappeared.

“Observing” the scene, the nun uttered a light gasp:

“So it is, a Spatial Labyrinth left by an Ancient God.”

“Sister, you know of this?”

Shard turned, somewhat surprised.

“The history of the Order is very long, and we have recorded some stories from the Ancient Era. Before the Thirteen Ancient Gods departed, each left behind a space. The Spatial Labyrinth, the Relic left by the Ancient God of Space, the Primordial Rift—I did not expect I would be able to see it.”
