Chapter 813 Meeting The Previous Hero Of Wild Beasts
-----
Although Sylphy and her friends had seen various Ruins by now, this was the first time Luck was seeing some by himself. He had been told about its origins, ruins that the Gods once used across the entire world when they walked among men, now left abandoned.
Some are said to hold many riches, while others have become nests for monsters, becoming dangerous dungeons. However, he had never heard of someone capable of controlling these ancient buildings and use them as vaults to save an inheritance.
"I still can't believe I got to inherit Elise's powers…" He sighed. "I-Is this really alright?"
"If you don't want it then I can take it for you." Sylphy laughed.
"E-Eh?!" Luck panicked.
"Enough, now let's go." The wolf said, glancing at the building and lifting his paw, touching the gate sealed with many runes. "[Gate, Open]"
FLAAAASH!
His Aura was imbued into the whole ruins, as the entire building started trembling, until the gates glowed with bright, golden runes, and opened.
Luck and the Fenrir stepped inside, leaving everyone behind as the gates closed in their backs…
"We're here, at long last, Elise…" The Gray Fenrir sighed, carrying Luck over his back.
He led him across a corridor, entering a large hall, where there was a few items lined over some furniture made of stone. And in the center of the hall, there was a big, yellow-gold crystal, overflowing with energy.
"We're here. This is Elise's inheritance." Said Fenrir.
Luck slowly stepped down from the hue beast, glancing around his surroundings, filled with wonder.
There was a certain air of mystique in this place, and he felt as if he wasn't just with Fenrir alone.
Somebody else, another being was with them.
"Just what exactly is an inheritance?" He wondered.
"It was designed by Elise so you could inherit part of her magic and might." The Gray Fenrir explained. "Although those items will make you much stronger, there's another thing, this crystal. She told me that when she died, and I were to find a worthy successor, that you had to touch it."
"I have to just touch it, right?" Wondered Luck.
"Yes, just touch it." Fenrir nodded.
"A-Alright…" Luck was slightly nervous but did as he was told.
His palm touched the spiraling golden crystal, as the crystal stopped moving, and floated soundlessly.
FLAAASH!
Luck's entire body was engulfed by a bright shine of golden light, as he felt his very consciousness being dragged inside the crystal.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself in what seemed to be… a beautiful forest.
The sky was blue, and in the background, Luck noticed enormous mountains.
He was standing in the middle of a grassy clearing.
And in front of him, there was a girl with brown skin, white tattoos resembling different animals across her body, and long brown hair made into a ponytail, with shiny golden eyes.
"Oh! Hey!" She greeted him. "Hello! How are you doing?"
"E-Eh? Huh?" Luck felt confused. "W-Where am I?! Ah! Who are you? Wait… Are you…?"
"Heh! Of course! I am Elise, the Heroine of Wild Beasts!" The girl puffed her chest pridefully. "Fufu, you must be… Oh! You're my successor? After so many years it finally happened! And you're an Anima too?! Nice! I knew that an Anima would be much more fitting for this title than humans."
"S-So you're really Elise…" Luck was surprised. "I-I am indeed an Anime, a black wolf Anima…"
"I can tell, you're so fluffy!" The girl started caressing his head and tail.
"H-Hey! Is this alright for a hero to do?!" Luck felt taken aback.
"Hehe, what's wrong? You're kind of adorable!" Laughed Elise.
Luck felt taken aback, he never thought the hero that these wolves respected so much, and that Sylphy and Aquarina's parents remembered so fondly was this childish!
But… how was she here anyways?
Wasn't she… dead?
"You're probably wondering how I'm here… Right?" She sighed. "Well, I kind of want to have a meeting with everyone else outside, so I'll call them here too. I know Fenrir's a bit grumpy and didn't let them in, but rules are made to be broken!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Elise magically summoned a part of the consciousness of Sylphy, Aquarina, Allan, Shade, Arafunn, and everyone else, surprising them.
"Huh?! W-Where am I- Ah! This place… a forest?" Arafunn looked around.
"This is… Ugh, what is even this?" Allan wondered.
"T-This is… Elise?" Shade asked, his eyes filled with shock.
"Hello! Sorry but I wanted to bring you here for a bit… Don't worry, time here goes super-fast, so it'll be a split of a second outside." Elise smiled. "I wanted to meet you guys again! Ah… Faylen's not with you?"
"E-Elise, is it really you?!" Allan started crying. "H-How…?!"
"Is this an illusion?" Arafunn wondered, covering his mouth in surprise.
"This is not an illusion…" Shade said. "We are inside something, I think it is some sort of Pseudo Spiritual Realm- no, a Soul Scape?"
"Woah, is she Elise?!" Sylphy wondered.
"I-I got dragged here out of nowhere…" Aquarina felt confused.
"This is a weird place…" Mist said.
"Why us though?" Zack wondered.
"I-I'm scared…" Celica cried.
"Come on, it is just one of those times you get your soul dragged somewhere else." Celeste was somehow familiar to this…
"Hehehe, sorry for calling you out of the blue! But meeting just with Luck here wouldn't had been enough!" Elise giggled innocently. "I am… surprised! You two have grown so big!" She told to Allan and Shade. "Allan you've got a beard now?! It doesn't fit you! Hahaha! Oh? Shade you're even more handsome than before! And… you're smiling? That's new! Arafunn… You're the same."
"I guess." Arafunn giggled a bit.
"You even got two daughters?! Oh my gosh! They're the new heroes?" Elise approached Sylphy and Aquarina. "Hi!!!"
"H-Hello…" Aquarina said.
"So you're Elise!" Sylphy said. "It is nice to meet you!"
"Same! You're… Faylen's daughter! Without a doubt! Those ears already could tell me!" Elise giggled. "Uwah, you're as cute as your mom! And you hold… that same gaze as well."
