A True Reward
It was time to claim the rewards.
Approaching the golden light, she stopped just in front of the light, crouching slightly.
“Oh, wait for me,” Luna said, running over to also claim the rewards.
She had defeated the two knights, but just as she was about to help Camilla, Camilla had killed the old man, ending the battle completely.
As she approached the light, she, too, crouched down right next to Camila.
“By the way, you should disappear all those summons,” Camila advised.
Looking back, she saw dozens and dozens of shadow wolves curiously watching Luna, their mistress.
Camila’s advice only earned a shake of Luna’s head. “No, I’m going to join them all together and create a giant shadow eagle and get out of here faster,” Luna declared.
And with that, all the shadow wolves became Mana particles, proceeding to initiate a bonding process.
Camila nodded with approval. “Well, while this isn’t the top of the Godria, this could easily be the potion we’ve been looking for,” Camila said.
Luna intertwined the two, hoping that the potion that could retrieve her parents was within the golden light.
Camila took a deep breath, reaching out to
grab what was inside the light.
“Huh?”, Camila gasped in surprise.
“What, what did you find?”, Luna asked
nervously.
“There are two things…”, Camila stated with
a frown.
Grabbing one of those “things,” Camila
pulled it out of the light, revealing some of
the treasures inside.
Luna’s eyes showed admiration, surprise,
but also… Disappointment.
Camila had pulled out a sword made
entirely of gold, both the hilt and the blade of a golden color, but the heavy power it emanated was no problem.
The power behind that sword is simply terrifying.

“I
However, both Luna and Camila said
nothing.
Leaving the wondrous sword on the
ground, Camila again reached her arm into
the golden light.
From there, she pulled out another object,
very different from the previous one. A kind of flask with a golden liquid inside…
Instantly, Luna’s eyes lit up in hope. “Is that it!!! Is that the potion!!!” she exclaimed and
asked with joy and excitement. Camila’s face revealed a small smile, nodding in confirmation. She already knew
what the potion Luna was looking for
looked like, so it was easy to confirm the
identity of the potion: a miraculous potion created by the Gods.
Upon seeing Camila’s confirmation, Luna
jumped with joy and emotion. She couldn’t
scream with emotion, but her jumping and eyes showed more than enough how happy she was now.
“Yay! Yay! We did it!” Luna exclaimed
happily.
Camila’s smile did not disappear from her
face. Although she didn’t know Luna or Theos very well, she didn’t wish ill on anyone either. If Luna got the potion that would restore her parents’ vitality, how could she not feel a little happy for her?
She might be indifferent and cold, but she had a heart.
Luna partied for a few minutes, to which
Camila didn’t bother her, letting her immerse herself in her happiness. After several minutes, Luna stopped. It
might sound ridiculous, but from all the jumping and jumping for joy, she had
worked up quite a sweat. She had gotten more tired jumping than fighting the old man himself…
“We should go now,” Camila suggested.
Luna nodded, agreeing. Right now, the most important thing is to find Theos and get everyone out of there.
With this new purpose, Luna turned and
looked briefly at the old man’s corpse but didn’t pay much attention to it.
She continued on her way to get on the shadow eagle.
Camila grabbed the sword she had left on
the ground and grabbed the potion. She
approached the shadow eagle to subsequently climb onto it.
“By the way, Luna, I have something to tell
you,” Camila suddenly said, continuing. “This sword… For some reason, I feel a
strange connection to it, so… I want to keep it,” Camila declared.
For some reason that was even unknown to
her, at least for now, is that she felt a strange and close connection with the sword, as if in the first place, the sword was meant for her.
“Sure, no problem; after all, you defeated
that damn old man; you did the hardest part of the battle,” Luna said with a smile.
Luna, more than anyone, knew that without Camila, she wouldn’t have gotten the potion, at least not without Theos here.
Camila was immensely happy to hear Luna’s acceptance. So she quickly stowed her now two swords in her storage ring.
She decided to investigate this new sword
further once she left the Forest of Treasures.
“Okay, let’s go,” Luna exclaimed, getting
into a position so she wouldn’t fall when
flying.
Camila also got into the position. “Akkkkkkrrrr,” the eagle made a strange cry; spreading its wings; it began to flutter until
it could…
*Swosh*
. Fly.
Because of the large size of the wings, the shadow eagle flew so fast that it barely left
a blur, and the best part is that Luna and
Camila were able to rest both physically, mentally, and in Mana reserves.
After descending for dozens of minutes
and searching the entire Godria tree, they found no trace of Theos.
They just kept going down, even when they reached the place where Theos activated the Underworld there was no trace of him in the surroundings, that is until… They saw several marks on the trees from burners and explosions.
Luna’s skin turned pale. ‘What if his
Dominion exploded after an attack? Exploded inside the Underworld? Will he still be alive?’, Luna had many doubts and questions in her mind.
In contrast, Camila remained silent, but
inwardly the worry about knowing Theos’ life was gnawing at her.
She decided to look all around to see if she
could get more traces of Theos, but this
itself made her see something very shocking…
Down below, Camila saw a fantastic and
unbelievable scene… Dozens of dragon
bodies lying there on the ground, all dead.
“Luna, look,” she called, pointing underneath it all.
Luna turned, looking where Camila had
been pointing. There she saw a scene she couldn’t even believe… “How could this be possible? Did Theos kill all those dragons? “Luna wondered.
Possibly they had underestimated Theos…
