The Fox Goddess

Chapter 389 The Next God Of Mystic Dragon Heaven Part 1

No one said anything at first and only stared at the Red Box, none of them moved. But it didn't take long for someone to grab the Box, to everyone's shock, Ike was the first one to grab the box. Yuki only raised an eyebrow and only waited to see what the results would be. To her, it doesn't who is going to be the God of the Mystic Dragon Heaven, but it would be better if it is someone she knew as it would be the best for Heaven. As if it was just a random Beast who got eaten by Greed, the state of Heaven would become much worse, and ultimately it would be useless because that person might die out of greed.

Ike who touched the Black Box felt a shiver down his spine, just holding it can his goosebumps all over his body. It is releasing so much powerful aura that his knees gave away immediately, if not for the chair that was holding his body, he might have collapsed already. But he pulled through it and then injected a small amount of his Mana into the Red Box to see how it would react. Nothing happened, there was only silence and just as he was about to try again, he was stopped by Yuki's voice who gave him a warning that made him drop the Red Box, luckily though before it can hit the ground, Yuki has already caught it.

"Don't try it again. You might regret the consequences after that." She gave him a cold stare which made him sweat profusely. He knew that he was in the wrong so he didn't say anything more and just stayed quiet in his seat. She then handed the Box to his Father who was stiffened when it drop on top of his hand. He was not expecting this outcome, he was shocked. But when he saw the stare that Yuki was giving him, it made him even more fearful. Accepting his fate, he closed his eyes and begins to focus intently on the Red Box on top of his palms as he sent out a pulse of Mana inside of the Box to see what will happen, but it was also the same with Ike, nothing special happened. Quickly passing the Box to the next person which was Rory, the person who had just been passed the Box was shocked to see how fearful Mirel was, but considering how Yuki was staring at him, probably everyone would be afraid.

Rory did exactly what the other two did and injected the Box with her Mana making the woman beside her worry. Aria was even more nervous and worried than Rory, she is very good at hiding her emotions and feelings that none of them has yet to know that a spark of feelings is starting to burn inside of Aria's heart towards Rory. Rory is also oblivious to her feelings as Aria still doesn't want to show them because she wants to know and see if the feelings that she is feeling right now are true or if she is just confused about it. So at this exact moment, she was very worried for Rory's safety.

Just as Rory put her Mana inside the Red Box, something strange happened. A Black mist started to come out of it that startled everyone, all of the people in the room were shocked by the sudden turn of events. Three people already tried to open it, but nothing happened, and when it was on Rory's hand, things suddenly take a turn. Yuki was also alarmed by this as she didn't expect something like this to happen, she was expecting the Royal Family to be the ones who will inherit the Treasures as they are a direct descendant of the Mystic Dragon God. But it looks like her assumptions are wrong.

"Mother, do you know what is happening?" Yuki turned to look at her Mother and also Serene who were also now observing the scene. Both of them has a serious face which made the other people inside nervous as they don't exactly know what is going to happen. They were worried that something might go wrong, especially for Aria who now quietly gripped Rory's hand and was refusing to let go of it.

"Don't worry, my daughter. There is nothing wrong with the situation, this Red Cube just picked one of its candidates to become the new God. And yes, before you say something, it can pick multiple amounts of candidates to become the God, but of course, only one can inherit it." Ayame explained with a smile as she turned towards Serene to see if she was right or not. What she said was not guaranteed correct, as her knowledge of treasures is limited, as the one who is truly knowledgeable about this kind of stuff is Serene. Serene only nodded in response to Ayame's stares and even gave her a head pat for getting it correct, but to explain it much further to everyone she is going to take over.

"Ayame's right. If I am correct, which I think I am. This Red Box has a Spirit inside of it, and it just determined that Rory could be possibly one of the candidates to become the new God. What she did is only pass the 1st test of the Red Box which was to see if you are worthy or not of even holding it. Don't worry though, it is completely safe to pass it to another person, this Black Mist would just disappear. And if you want to know what is the Black Mist, it is the reaction of the Spirit inside, it is telling Rory that she is a worthy one. Actually, you can even use this to cultivate your own power, I'm sure you have already felt the immense power that is radiating from the Mist right? Why don't you go on ahead and absorb it, I'm curious how much you will grow after that." Serene said lazily as he rest her head using Ayame's arm on the table while she accepts the food that she was given to her by Ayame. Seeing this action, Yuki frowned, she never would expect Serene to act like this.

"Then there is no problem then. I believe in the words of the Goddess Serene." Rory said as she gently removed the hand that Aria was holding and now held the Red Box using her two hands. Closing her eyes shut, she begins the process of absorbing the Mana. Everyone around her was extremely nervous because all of them could feel the immense power of the Black Mist, they were experienced in fighting, and it was not even a question of what can that Black Mist do. Its power was enough to detonate an entire Solar System.

"Oh, shit... I forgot to tell her that the Black Mist is the weakened power of that Mystic Dragon God. Well, she should be fine. She is strong anyway." Serene thought in her mind, but she decided to ignore it since that power was already weakened to the point that it was an easy job to absorb all of its powers, though never underestimate its weakened form. It is still very powerful since it came from one of the most Majestic Gods. Luckily she was right, nothing happened to Rory after she absorb all of the Black Mist, all of it just went away because it was already absorbed by her Soul Realm. Suddenly all of them felt the ground shake and it didn't take long for them to realize that Rory is stepping through the gates of being a Spirit Beast. She finally broke through the shackled of being a Star Lord Beast. Yuki quickly noticed this and she congratulated Rory in her mind before using her "Divine Fox Eyes" to look at Rory's current stats.

Name - Rory Hariet

Race - Calamity Storm Fox

HP - 4,000,000

Mana - 7,250,000

Magic Power - 2,100,000

Rank - Spirit Beast (Middle)

Slowly, Rory opened her eyes. But before she could even do anything or even talk, she was hugged by someone. She was shocked to see who the person was, it was actually Aria. This event was just like a dream that she wishes to never wake up again, this was something she wishes to happen, to be closer to the woman she loved very dearly. But at this exact moment, she doesn't exactly know what to do.

"Congratulations, Rory. You are even much stronger than before. But I'm sure that no one in this room expected you to jump one entire Realm. You went from being a Middle-Tier Star-Lord Beast to a Middle-Tier Spirit Beast, and you even got something more special than that..." Yuki said with a slight smile before she ignore the two women who were on the ground and went to pick up the Red Box and threw it toward Sayaka who only had a gentle smile on her face as she watches her little sister.

"You also try it. You never know, you might be also a candidate." Yuki shrugged before she took her seat, she then drank a full glass of wine before eating a few pieces of meat that her daughters gave to her.
