Chapter 189 189: The Secret Realm, Kohana Toreninguki Opened
"Is it true that there is a heritage of ancient civilization within this secret realm?"
"Yes, it seems that only the most powerful warrior of the ancient civilization could get Kohana Toreninguki's inheritance."
"By the way, this inheritance contains many mysteries, and every time the secret realm has opened so far, no one has been able to get the inheritance."
"If I'm not mistaken ten years ago, even Overlord Rank people came out here with their best disciples to try to conquer this inheritance."
"Well, it's been more than 100 years since Kohana Toreninguki opened at 10-year intervals, yet no one has been able to get the inheritance. I don't think it even exists."
"It doesn't exist?! That's only because no one has been worthy of the inheritance, but whoever gets it will have the right to be the leader of the Uzushisenga!"
Amon and the girls heard the whispers of others and had no idea that such a thing existed. They only knew that there were a lot of good things in this secret realm, Kohana Toreninguki, but they didn't expect that there was a rumor that there was a legacy left by the ancient civilization to choose the next leader of the Uzushisenga.
"Uzushisenga? Is it the name of this ancient civilization?" Maisa asked. Until now they hadn't talked about it, so she had no idea what the name of this ancient civilization was.
"Yes, the Uzushisenga were powerful humans with more than 10 Overlords among their ranks," Teacher Kaia said, "However, even though they are so powerful, no one knows for sure what drove them to extinction."
"Either nobody knows, or they're hiding something..." Bianca mumbled playfully, but there was a bit of sincerity in her voice when she said it.
"By the way, while you're at Kohana Toreninguki, don't lose the Crystal of Return," Bianca warned, "Otherwise, you will be trapped for ten years within the secret realm until the next Return Crystals are generated."
Being trapped for ten years was not an idea that pleased any of them, although it may have been possible to survive. Even though the gravity would increase every hour, there must be a maximum limit. Still, living under the increased gravity multiple times their own for ten years would be torturous.
"My key is well stored in my medallion storage that has a space of five cubic meters." Barbara touched her finger gently to the locket in her palm.
It was a high-quality product they won thanks to the tournament between universities. Now they could keep stuff in the locket, so why not use it?
Obviously, Amon, Maisa, Julia, and Ariel used theirs similarly. Their medallions were in pendant form around their necks. Each of the medallions were fashioned with a very sturdy little chain made of materials that would not be easily destroyed and were very good to wear with the lockets as a pendant.
The amount of space the medallions contained was relatively large; even Mabel's space ring was 10 cubic meters. Although that was twice as much, she had gotten it from her grandmother, and it was a luxury item.
"For the sake of safety, I brought this for all of you." Bianca showed them five similar rings. "Each ring only has 1 cubic meter of storage, however, it is more useful in storing smaller things, and much more difficult to lose, since it is attached to the finger until the owner intends to remove the ring."
The rings had a silver base with an emerald stone held in the center by a kind of X-shaped claw.
"Thanks, Bianca~" Ariel gladly accepted.
"I'll give it back after we leave," Maisa said. She wouldn't be brazen like Ariel. Although she appreciated Bianca's kindness, there were limits one shouldn't cross.
"No need. They're of no use to me." Bianca already expected it to be like this. She added, "Just consider it you owing me a favor~"
Hearing her say it like that, they accepted the rings more easily.
Barbara, on the other hand, was Bianca's daughter. There was no reason for her to refuse, but she still felt grateful. "Thank you mom. I love you~~"
Bianca appreciated that, but pretended otherwise when she said, "Silly girl, you only say you love me when I give you something..." She then pretended to pout.
"Of course not! I always say I love you in my mind. Look, I did it again." Barbara got even more cheeky and hugged her mother and kissed her cheek.
Bianca laughed helplessly. Her daughter's shameless attitude was growing even more by spending more time with Ariel...
After injecting the genes into their rings, the ring fits to each of their fingers and they could feel the presence of the 1 cubic meter space within the emerald stones of the rings. Just as a test, Barbara asked Amon to try to take the ring off her finger, but as Bianca said, without her really wanting to take it off, the ring wouldn't come off.
They then stowed their return crystals in their rings and also the locket, as it was safer than wearing it around the neck.
With preparations in place, they were about to enter the Secret Realm, Kohana Toreninguki.
"How many do you think will die this time?"
"Well, at least 5 thousand?"
"I think there will only be a thousand..."
"I bet at most 2000 will survive!"
Coldly, betting as casually as if on a horse race, some of the people gathered started betting on the survival of the people who were about to enter the secret realm. It wasn't discreet at all. Most heard them say it out loud and bet on their survival.
Upon hearing this, many younger people under the age of 30 began to show more fear than nervousness. Knowing that there were people doubting their survival, and even making bets like that, was a very high psychological pressure. Worse was that not all of them were natives who did that. In reality, the natives were more behaved and treated them better than the people who came to see a 'good show', or to negotiate some things here since they knew that there would be many opportunities for profit.
Of course, there were others with far more evil thoughts...
"Don't mind these people," Bianca said aloud with a cold smile, "They're just bastards who enjoy the misfortune of others until they despair when it's finally their turn..."
The people who were here to place bets heard this and got angry, but when they looked at Bianca and saw that she was a transcendental beauty... their gazes turned lustful.
"Hot woman, why don't you talk more closely with this little brother?" Wearing black mercenary clothing, the man lasciviously licked his lips. "I will-"
Before he could continue sputtering inanities, Bianca suddenly threw a hair needle. The needle pierced the head of the man who had spoken, leaving a hole capable of allowing an adult fist to pass through.
"Just a warning: If you keep acting like an idiot and looking at me with your disgusting eyes, I will kill you all," Bianca said coldly.
The rest began to tremble with fear. They realized that this incredibly beautiful woman was not easy to deal with. If they continued to tease her and her group, they would be the next ones with a big hole in their head...
"Mom, you are so amazing. I could barely see the needle. Plus, how did you create such a big hole by piercing that big perverted idiot's head?" Barbara asked with a twinkle in her eye.
"That was using fire genetic power," Bianca replied calmly, "You should also be able to do that eventually. In my case, I just used fire's intent to destroy rather than burn, so there's no trace of burning. Technically, he didn't even catch fire. It's very similar to using a hot iron."
"Wow, I want to learn that!" Barbara was very excited. If she managed to use that, how awesome would it be?
"When we get back, I'll teach you." Bianca smiled as she rubbed Barbara's head.
Barbara nodded repeatedly.
Meanwhile, some people cast glances at them from the corner of their eyes, but judging how dangerous this group of people could be, they decided to avoid trying to get close. After all, this woman had just killed someone in front of everyone.
They felt an even more dangerous vibe from the gray-haired woman, and among them, some recognized her. They were mostly elders of big clans, and had seen her lecture her at least once. She was on a level far beyond what they could provoke, so they decided not to mess with her.
Meanwhile, the natives with aspects of animals seemed used to this type of occurrence. Some approached the corpse of the mercenary and removed it from the place. After all, leaving it there would hinder their business.
As for anyone accusing Bianca of killing in cold blood in front of so many people... It didn't even cross their minds. People with such courage and daring would invariably not have a simple background. Besides, the strength she displayed, although they weren't able to accurately analyze it, would need to be at least a Level 3 Innate.
"It's opening!"
Suddenly, a scream came from the crowd, and in front of the secret realm, a dimensional crack opened in the form of a portal. It was not possible to see what was inside the crack, all that was visible was the purest darkness. In some ways, it was frightening to pass through such a place. After all, the unknown always brings fear to people.
"We are going. See you later, Bianca and Teacher Kaia," Amon said.
The girls also said goodbye and started walking towards the crevice.
In order not to be separated, they had a rope that connected them and sent them to the same place. Some groups wore chains or even hugged each other as they entered. The issue was that after going through the rift, they would be sent to different locations, and only those who used this kind of method would go to the same location.
