The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Chapter 169: Ch 169: Secret of the Mysterious Item

After the date day was over, Rein accompanied Colinde to the Demon Slaying Division. He was here with a proposal for the division. This would allow him and Colinde to stay together inside the Divine Scale Pavillion too and would allow Rein to provide Colinde with the best possible treatment.

When Rein came here before, his position was only that of being friends with a very talented girl. No one knew that Colinde and Rein were engaged so no one gave him extra attention. But now the situation was different.

Currently Rein was a lead core disciple of the Divine Scale Pavillion which was a sect with stronger influence than even the Demon Slaying Division. So he would be treated like a VIP by the people of the Demon Slaying Division.

The proposal that Rein was going to give the Demon Slaying Division was simple. He was going to make Colinde live in the Divine Scale Pavillion with him and the pavilion would be responsible for the supplies she would need for her cultivation. This would be an insane proposal if Rein and Colinde were not engaged. But as they were engaged Rein was able to make the demand.

The Demon Slaying Division was not going to suffer a loss in this process. Not only would Colinde still be a member of the division, the division would also be given a bridal gift from the Divine Scale Pavillion.

They would also be able to save the resources that Colinde would need and most importantly the Demon Slaying Division would be able to create a close connection with one or the strongest sect of this world.

...

So just as Rein expected, the current leader of the Demon Slaying Division easily accepted the proposal. Colinde was definitely a genius and any other sect would never be willing to let her go, that was not the case for the Demon Slaying Division.

Even though the Demon Slaying Division acted like a sect, it was actually not a sect but an organisation created by the Royal family to hunt demons. In nature, they were more like a school. So allowing a disciple to go to a different place for training was not a big deal for them.

The situation was a bit more complex for Colinde as she was truly an exceptional genius. But the offers that Rein provided were impossible to reject with how good they were so the leader of the demon slaying division decided to allow Colinde to stay with Rein.

With that done, Colinde was now free to spend her time with Rein in the Divine Scale Pavillion. She was obviously very happy about this and hugged Rein again. After that there was still a bit more work like letting the others to know about the situation and to allow Colinde to properly thank and say goodbye to the teachers who had trained her during this time.

All these processes took quite some time and it was almost afternoon when both of them were done with all the work. After that they went to the house that they bought and met with Lan and her family. Then Rein told them about the products he would be able to supply regularly and the father got ready to finally open the business.

After the serious talk was over, Rein, Colinde and Lan decided to spend the night here. Then they would return back to their villa in the sect the next day.

...

While lying down on the bed Rein started to think about the real world where his other lovers were busy taking on their trials. In this world, decades had passed but Rein was not sure about how much time had passed in the real world. There might be a difference in time flow between this world and the Rein's own world but he was not sure about that.

Normally Rein did not need to sleep but after coming to this world he had been sleeping daily as he did not have the ability to always stay awake without any problems. But after he started building his Divine Castle, his need for sleep had gone down quite a bit.

So as Rein was not feeling sleepy today after having a very comfortable sleep last night, he decided to think about some of the things he was a bit worried about. One of those things was an item and Rein took it out from his storage unit.

It was a ball about the size of his palm. There were three holes on the balls creating a triangular shape between them. This was the item which attracted his attention when he bought the items excavated from an ancient ruin. Rein could understand that this item was definitely powerful but he still had not managed to find a way to activate it.

Rein was quite busy with creating a perfect technique for Colinde so he obviously was unable to give this item much time. But still whenever Rein had some free time, he checked this item out to see if he could find a way to activate it. But so far, his tries had all been in vain.

Rein had tried many things but nothing had been successful so far. So today he decided to just observe the ball carefully to see if he could find any clues. It's not like he had never done a deep observation of the ball but he had always been a bit distracted with other thoughts.

Today his mind was clear as he did not have anything he needed to do in a short time so he was able to take a long and hard look at the ball.

Probably because he was looking at the ball for almost an hour which was the most amount of time he had ever given to this item, Rein started to notice something weird. The balls looked a little different from it was about an hour before. The chance was extremely minor and Rein was still not sure what had changed. But definitely there was some kind of change on the ball that was not present before.

After observing the ball for more time while trying to remember how this ball was an hour ago, Rein was finally able to find the thing that changed with the ball. Some mini complex characters were written on the balls and one of those characters had changed slightly and now it has an extra small line added to it.

The characters that were used on the balls were from an ancient script and Rein did not know much about it. But there was a book about this language in the library of the Divine Scale Pavillion and Rein had used that book to decipher what was written on the ball.

But now that he saw the ball was changing the things written on it, he decided to see what had changed from before by deciphering the script again.

With that objective in mind, the things Rein needed to do after returning to the sect had increased again.
