Chapter 1045 Finding Clues
-----
Our parents did join the battle, as the emerging swarm of creatures never stopped. We kept fighting, with Lara's and my mother's buffs, we were able to endure the assault of over three hundred Tier 7 monsters, until they were finally fully slain.
Ding!
[You and your party have defeated [Sunstone Insectoid Chimeras (Tier 7)] x309]
[You gained +15.450.000 EXP!]
[Aquarina] gained 6 Levels, she has reached Level 35/80!]
[Zack] gained 5 Levels, she has reached Level 16/30!]
[Mist] gained 5 Levels, she has reached Level 15/30!]

[Lara] gained 5 Levels, she has reached Level 15/30!]
[Nephilim] [Naturia] and [Yggdra] have gained 5 Levels!]
[Undine] and [Leviathan] have gained 8 Levels!]
The amount of EXP we earned was rather amazing, even if it was only Tier 7 Monsters, they were hundreds!
I can't earn the full EXP of a monster when someone else slays it, but I usually earn between 15% to 50% of the EXP, depending how much I helped.
This made it so even when I only defeated around sixty by myself, I still earned even more EXP than I imagined…
Everyone leveled up plentifully, with most of my Level 30 capped friends already midway through to their next Rank Up.
Maybe we can get them to Rank Up in these vacations if we slay more strong monsters…
Oh, and Aquarina's Spirits are also midway through by now, if not slightly more advanced, already at Level 21.
If we keep going like this, they might hit max level and evolve into C Rank or above Spirits!
Well, aside from the amazing amount of EXP, it took us roughly an hour to get them all done, and the whole battlefield was chaotic. But with the help of our parents, we were sure we would get through this without any problems.
Maybe in another adventure when we are without them, things might be more thrilling, but this is supposed to be a vacation, so I don't mind this sense of protection that they give.
Even then, they still barely intervened, knowing we were tough enough to take a few hits back if necessary, so things were still fairly challenging, not even my little brother was particularly protected by our mother and father, so I had to cover his back now and then.
Once the battle ended, my mother made sure to purify the souls, and I helped as well. The souls, as they faded away, released sparkles of golden light, and the atmosphere seemed to grow less dense.
It felt as if their souls were making things scarier than they actually were. It made me slightly amused with the intensity and power of a soul. The emotions we exude, and how they can even affect the environment.
But this wasn't really the only thing we noticed, but the amount of monsters we defeated. We ended fighting roughly 309 of them, all of them had at least a single soul.
This meant that the Gods didn't just experiment with a handful or a dozen, but hundreds of people. It was at an even worse scale than what we saw in the Fishman King's Dungeon.
"There were too many of them, and they all ran towards us for some reason… Hahhh, I'm a bit exhausted." Zack sighed, resting over the floor.
"It wasn't easy. And it felt strange too…" Luck wondered. "Did anybody else noticed how they felt somewhat "controlled"?"
"I did…" Celica nodded. "Something bigger and meaner was controlling their souls and forcing them to attack us… They were aiming for our lives more than anything!"
"There must be a big boss down there…" Zephy sighed. "Ugh, I wonder if its going to be like that big fishman king and the dragon from the other dungeon, big sis…"
"It might quite possibly be in the level of that three-headed dragon, if not stronger." I said. "The Sea Dragon we fought was an incomplete form, and ended getting very weakened, so it wasn't as big of a threat as it could have been… We were lucky back then, honestly."
"Well! The good thing is that we won, and we got a lot of levels." Aquarina smiled, kissing my cheek. "Cheer up! We're soon to end this ordeal."
"Haha, I know, you don't need to cheer me up." I smiled. "Though I don't mind more of those kisses for a bit~"
"Then you can have as many as you want." Aquarina adorably kissed my nose and then my lips several times. "Mooch, mooch, mooch!"
I felt like in heaven whenever her soft lips kissed me… Any stress or exhausting I felt quickly left my body.
"Better now?" She winked at me.
"Yes, I'm full of energy for anything!" I hugged her tightly.
To be honest, she was like my endless source of energy.
"Phew… Well, that was more intense than I imagined." My mother sighed, stretching her arms, she felt slightly sore. "And there's a lot of things we can find from their corpses. Look."
My mother suddenly grabbed a piece of a silver tablet lying over the ground, it contained a few letters.
"Oh, there are more of these silver plate fragments over here!"
I also noticed a few more pieces here and there, which I quickly gathered. And quickly after everyone else found a few more.
"I found one in here too!" Aquarina pointed at it.
"Me too! Around this place…" Zack said.
"I found one incrusted inside a crystal!" Lara said.
"There's another one here, anybody can read it?" Luck asked.
We continued analyzing the many corpses of the monsters as we stored them, ultimately finding around 13 silver tablets fragments.
"So 13 pieces in total… Alright." My mother smiled, filled with curiosity and fueled with the passion of a researcher.
She started attempting to put them together as if they were all fragments of a single piece.
And interestingly enough, they all fit together into a larger one, although with a few missing pieces, a text of some sort could easily be discerned.
"T-This is…"
And when my mother read it, she made a rather… shocked expression.
