Chapter 517 - Messenger And Will

Sylvia looked around the treasure room. There were countless high-level unknown resources piled up like a few colorful sparkling hills. Even though she didn\'t know most of the materials, she could judge them with confidence only from those energy radiances.

Even so, her attention was instantly drawn to something in the corner at the side of the room. A fibrous crystal shaped like a miniature sun floated within the gap of the large pillar.

Subconsciously, Sylvia walked closer to the pillar while pulling her friend\'s hand.

However, a flash of shadow immediately preceded her.

"Wait a minute! What are you going to do? Don\'t you dare touch that fibrous crystal over there. Whatever it is, as long as it\'s not that fibrous crystal!" The paperman cried out with urgency. He had to stop these two mischievous little girls before a catastrophe occurred.

"Ooh~ So, you\'re now giving your permission for us to take all of your resources? Thank you very much!" Sylvia nodded in understanding and immediately turned around to go to one of the mounds full of precious resources.

"Huh-uh?" The paper man covered his mouth instantly. Why did he give them the green light to impoverish him!?

The paper man was devastated when the devil girl started looting here and there, along with the human girl.

"So, are you the Sky God? You were the one who teleported us here, correct?" Elena walked over. She gave an approving nod to Elysia and Sylvia.

"I was indeed the one who brought you all here, but I\'m not the one you referred to. It was me who brought you here you know? So, you guys didn\'t conquer this maze at all. You all haven\'t eradicated all the monsters in this maze and all the final bosses are still there!" The paper man screamed with injustice.

"Maa, maa, please calm down, paper man. We\'re just taking some compensation for your pranks on us. If you knew what was going on outside, then it was your fault that led to this situation." Elena wiggled her hand as if there was nothing to worry about.

"What do you mean by that?" The paper man scratched his head in confusion.

"You are this maze\'s master, no? You teleported us here because we defeated the final boss, yes?" Elena tilted her head slightly.

"Me? I am just a semi-humanoid paper creature created by Sky God himself before he left and never came back. He bestowed his will and some of his divine power on me." The paper man pointed at his face.

"Do you know where the Sky God went?" Rhea felt something was wrong and asked.

"Regrettably, but I don\'t know anything. He just left with his half crushed body with no words." The paper man shook his head with a mournful expression.

"You\'re his masterpiece and will, aren\'t you? But, well, you\'ve become a completely separated entity that can\'t be connected to him." Rhea sighed as she realized that fact.

"Precisely. But, I have seen what you all did to that divine spirit. However, that is only part of the sealed creature\'s real divine spirit." The paper man also sighed.

"Hmm? Only half?" Nell frowned.

"As I said. The God-level curse bearing creature is still sealed in the main altar. The crystal over there is this maze\'s core. If it is taken from there, then this maze will collapse instantly." The paper man pointed at the crystal inside the pillar.

"We understand that. But, it\'s kind of impressive. You\'re aware of our arrival, but you\'re just watching the whole thing here and letting us struggle out there. Though, it would be a lot more helpful if you could provide us with some information or guidance at this sealing area." Oceanid folded his arms and grumbled.

"Hahaha, it would be much better if I could do that. However, I can\'t get out of this dimension." The paper man replied with a self-deprecating laugh.

"I see... Can you introduce yourself first? I am the Goddess of Blessings myself, and this one is--" Nell introduced her group one by one.

"I was created without a name. It will be fine if you call me paper-man." The paper man replied with a slight nod.

"Then, Shiki. Why did you bring us here? It\'s not just because you want us to secure that treasury, right?" Elena pointed to the hills full of resources.

"Shi-Shiki? Did you just give me a nickname?" The paperman was slightly dumbfounded to hear that name.

"Of course, it\'s an easy thing. So, the answer to my question?" Elena shrugged her shoulders.

"Of course not. My main purpose in teleporting you all here was for an important matter. This maze will not last long and all the creatures that are sealed here will be freed into the world. I want you to eradicate all curse bearing creatures, and all the treasures of this maze will be yours." Shiki shook his head and answered with a solemn expression.

After that, he started to open his mouth to convey his main objectives.

Elysia then decided to drag the devil girl back to the group to listen to the vital explanation.

"So, everything is like that." Shiki folded his arms and nodded like a sage.

"Fufu, so you teleported the Evil God to the sealing chamber of one of the most dangerous creatures in this maze? You have my respect, paper-man Shiki! That Evil God deserved it because it was the one he wanted, right?" Sylvia patted Shiki\'s back with her finger. She couldn\'t hide her smug laugh knowing the Evil God\'s situation.

"Well... He is sometimes a battle frenzy. So, he will thank me. Also, it will improve his self-esteem after being the first God to fall in the war. A kindness." Shiki put his hands on his waist and nodded in agreement.

"..." Elysia and Elena looked at each other, but they decided not to say anything.

\'Here, Ely. I\'ve put the most valuable items in there without knowing their effects. But I know they\'re harmless.\' Elena returned Elysia\'s Space Bag.

\'Some of them could be weapons of mass destruction, Sister Elena. I don\'t know why you immediately secured all these divine grade magic items...\' Elysia smiled helplessly and put her Space Bag behind her waist belt.

\'That\'s because I became greedy, hehe... We can ask Rhea or Lifa the effects of those divine grade magic items later. Moreover, Shiki had also planned to give all these resources in return for the missions he wanted us to complete.\' Elena giggled playfully.

\'But, why do I feel like it\'s a testament to an inheritance? It\'s as if Shiki won\'t live long and decided to leave it all to us.\' Elysia glanced at the floating paper man with a slightly odd feeling.

\'I feel the same way, Ely. Let\'s pay him respect and not question it. He is aware of that, and that\'s why he made his request to us. All he wants is to exterminate those accursed monsters for the sake of a peaceful world.\' Elena heaved a subtle sigh in mind. She felt sympathy for the paper man because of his destiny as a messenger.

\'Erm.\' Elysia had some ideas in mind, but she just put them aside for the time being. There were still about three months left as the maximum for that inevitable day.

"Nee, nee, can you bring a craft of folding paper to life? It would be nice to have a toy that can move like a servant. Upon closer inspection, you look cute. Uhm, can I take you home? " Sylvia walked around the paper man with sparkling eyes. This paper man\'s generosity impressed her quite a bit.

"Err..." Shiki felt that he was being stared at by the predatory eyes of a troublesome creature.

He immediately distanced himself from the devil girl and shook his head. "Too bad, little devil girl. My charm knows no bounds. It is natural for you to feel attracted to me. However, we will not cross paths. You just need to serve your human master like a good servant and all will be well."

"Huh? What do you mean by that?" Sylvia couldn\'t understand the meaning of that statement.

Even so, Shiki decided not to talk more about it. He simply floated down to approach the turquoise-haired Goddess. "Did your mother also survive?"

"Why do you ask that, Shiki? Did the Sky God also pass on some of his knowledge to you?" Rhea responded in a neutral tone.

"Literally, I am him, but in the form of a temporary entity. I am only his will to guard this maze and as a messenger. And of course, I was like a replica of him at that time." Shiki looked up with a subtle nod.

"Hm, my mother is safe. However, she won\'t be participating much in the war or anything because of her situation." Rhea glanced at the paperman briefly and gave her confirmation.

"I see..." Shiki could understand the information from what was not said.

After that, the divine beings exchanged information and ideas on what they would do with all the accursed monsters in this maze. Shiki also joined the discussion.

However, Sylvia decided to continue to loot all those precious resources, along with her friend, of course.

At that moment, Dylan just stood still and watched everything in silence. It was as if he wasn\'t involved in anything. Even so, he only stole glances at the black-haired human girl and the Goddess of Light.

The answer from the Goddess of Nature was still vivid in his mind.

\'So, that human girl is the Goddess of Light\'s precious disciple... No wonder I lost to her. So, it\'s not a disgrace at all for me. But, why did the Goddess of Nature say that they were the strongest? Was the one she meant by that the Goddess of Light, hm?\' Dylan wondered in his mind, but he didn\'t know the exact answer.

Yet, he could only believe that the Goddess of Light was the strongest one. He completely ignored Elysia in his calculations because it was impossible for a hidden Emperor-level human girl to become the strongest and surpass the divinity.

In a different dimension from the maze\'s core room, Xero was panting with purple and black stains all over his body.

Even so, a broad smile was plastered on his face. He was satisfied enough to test his new skills and abilities to the fullest.

"Heh, it turns out that\'s all you can do, weakling. You are now just a useless lump of bone after clashing with my divine power. The curse energy can no longer injure me in any way. I am an almighty divine being. You accursed have only one destiny, destroyed under my might." Xero stomped on the gigantic dead monster\'s head with a disdainful smile on his face.. He then walked away to find a way out of the arena.
