Chapter 1246 Trial Rewards

Ding!
[The [Aquarius' Broken Trident: Ariel (Broken) (F Grade)] has absorbed the [Sea Dragon's Divine Scale (S Grade)] Material Item!]
[It has regained a part of its former strength!]
Upon absorbing the Scale, the Trident began glowing. Over half of her cracks were healed, and she no longer looked like she was beaten down and all dusty, looking slightly more clean. Her three pointy tips had yet to regenerate and they still looked terrible though, but her aura had improved and she seemed to emanate a strong enough Aura.

[Ancient Relic of the Guardian of the Seas (Broken)]: This item is broken and has lost most of its powers due to the passing of time and the death of its original wielder. However, if it can find a new wielder and new materials to be repaired with, the legendary weapon's true power will be unlocked.
[Description]
An old-looking sea trident that was once wielded by Aquarius, the Guardian of the Seas. It lacks its original powers due to the passing of time and the death of its original wielder. It is barely stronger than a simple wooden spear. It has been repaired once, enhancing its stats and Rank, but it requires more materials.

"Heh, I've finally improved a little bit!" The Trident said proudly.
"You're still pretty trash." I sighed. "Just how many materials do you need to begin with?!"
"Uuugh, who are you calling trash?!" Asked Ariel angrily. "Also, give me that orb you're holding, it is also a tasty material!"
"Orb?" I wondered.
Suddenly, I realized there was a pink and red-colored orb in my hand. It had appeared there without me even realizing, and it was glowing with a powerful aura of dreams and souls.
Aside from it, there were also several small Divinity Fragments around me, and another orb, this one was much spaller, resembling a pearl containing a powerful aura of souls and dreams.
Ding!
[Due to your outstanding achievements on the [First Trial] you've received the Hidden Rewards left by the [Inheritance's Creator: Aquarius]!]
[You've received the [Mystical Dream Soul Orb of the Tyrannical Shark of the Dead Seas (S Grade)] x1!]
[You've received the [Aquarius' Dream Memory Soul Orb (S Grade)] x1!]
[You've received the [Divinity Fragment of Primordial Seas] x5!]
[You've received an additional 20000000 Divine Power!]
Now this is what I call a jackpot! What is this?! Did Aquarius somehow converted this place into his Inheritance as well? I had no idea! Does this means that… if we complete this place, not only we'll get the Blue Orb Fragment but also I could inherit his strength?
Interesting… And these two Orbs seem rather strong too. They could be good materials to create weapons, or upgrade magic items too, or maybe they're meant to be… something else?
"Those items… The Soul Orb of that giant shark and… what is that pearl?" Sapphire wondered. "It emanates such a similar aura to someone else… Is that somehow related to Aquarius?"
"Somehow, it is like his encapsulated memories." I said. "It is not… him, per say."
"I see…" Sapphire sighed.
"Do you want to have it?" I wondered.
"I…" Sapphire looked into the pearl but then waved her head. "No, keep it. If he gifted it to you, I am sure that it must be for a reason."
"Fine." I sighed. "I can still feel it, within this pearl, there's something. And these rewards too… It seems that this was all a plan Aquarius had from before."
"A plan?" Wondered Miranda. "Wait, you mean… this is not just a place where the blue orb is sealed but something else?"
"It is an inheritance." I said with a nod.
"I see…" Benladann nodded. "It does makes sense, if the rewards are directly connected to his own powers and strengths…"
"But what's up with the shark soul? What can that even be for?" Wondered Tisha.
I started thinking deeply until I realized the shark had a very similar appearance to the Stigma that Sapphire had. While Rose's, the little mermaid girl had a big fish with sharp teeth, Sapphire's Stigma resembled a gigantic shark with tentacles.
Wait, don't tell me…
"Grab this, Sapphire." I said. "Using your Stigma hand."
"M-Me?" She felt confused.
"Just do it, I think I've figured out the truth behind the Familiars that Aquarius had, their actual origins." I said with a smile.
She quickly grabbed the purple and blue orb, as it began to glow right away. Her Stigma immediately reacted to the item and then, the orb merged into her hand.
FLAAAASH!
"W-What is this power?!" Sapphire panicked for a bit, but it was to be expected.
"This is a gift your beloved Aquarius left for you. It is the other half of the soul of the Familiar used to create the Stigma sealing a Fragment of the Deep One's powers. With this, you'll surely become even stronger." I said with a smirk.
Her body started overflowing with Divine Power, and she had suddenly raised to Rank 9 in a flash. Her Stigma powers had evolved too, becoming a part of her own divinity more than ever. And above all…
FLUOOOOSH!
"GRUOOOOHHHH…!"
Her Shadows started moving on their own, made out of darkness, curses, and bestial energies, a gigantic shark with tentacles appeared, the Tyrannical Shark of the Dead Seas has finally woken up from within the Stigma.
[The Stigma User: Sapphire] has awakened the [Tyrannical Shark of the Dead Seas] Familiar within her Stigma!]
[All her Magical Powers have been unlocked. Her Stigma's magic has been enhanced even further.]
"A-Amazing, what is this?! This giant shark is my Familiar?!" Sapphire was shocked. "So… Aquarius made the beast he defeated his familiar…"
"Perhaps he did it as a way to gain allies… As we saw in that vision, his siblings… died fighting it." I sighed. "Though I would had killed the monster, it seems he had a softer heart."
"But what was the reason they were fighting that shark to begin with, just a trial? Why would their mother send them to their deaths like that?" Miranda questioned.
"Well, we might find out soon." I said, as our surroundings started to distort, the Second Trial was about to begin.
FLAAAAASH!
[The [Second Trial] has started.]
