Requiem Of A Failed Hero

Chapter 79 The Golem Dungeon (6)



Raith stepped back and looked to the chest center of the statue. He rubbed his chin as he observed clearly.

[You are using skill 'Truth Seeker']

[Item has been identified]

[Rodom Crystal]

"What the fuck is a rodom crystal."

Whim!

Raith's leg went off the ground and next, he pulled out the crystal in that split moment experiencing a trance that left him unconscious.

Fenrir caught him before he could helplessly land on the ground. The statue's hands suddenly switched positions, it was subtle but startled Fenrir who wasn't looking. The wolf exchanged glances between the statue and the door of treasures that Raith was meaning to enter.

They say one's darkness reflects his true desires.

The wolf lunged into the opened door, ignoring the statue. As the big wolf reduced in size and comfortably entered along with other dark orcs with black and gleaming weapons, a pillar protruded from the ground and shut the door.

As they stepped inside the golden light almost killed the darkness of their body and was shining so brightly it could make all of them go blind.

The room was filled with so many golden pieces of jewelry and treasures.

So much gold

Their eyes sparkled and they immediately began to swim into it. These monsters are a reflection of what Raith truly was, they may be the darkness of a soul that he killed but that darkness was delivered from suffering and given a chance of service by his own darkness which predates everything that is and is a consummation of the entirety as a dark soldier.

Raith gasped back to reality with his eyes widened and the red crystal in his hand. He slipped down Fenrir's back with a gelid frown. His glares these days have always been gelid as though he was indifferent about everything the world had to offer to him but it was different. Those eyes looked like they saw something.

It was short though, as those eyebrows creased to form another kind of frown that was complemented by an ear-to-ear smile.contemporary romance

"You guys... Empty this shit." He ordered and added. "Yes take it to the abyss"

[What?]

"What?"

[Nothing]

"Yeah, I thought so too..."

[Entry into the abyss has been blocked]

"It's fine, I suppose you don't want to know what happened with the power of the grey."

[Entry into the abyss has been unblocked]

[What did you see?]

"Ah, that is not your business... let's just say I was able to cheat that darn celestial code. Things might get interesting from here on."

Raith looked down at the red crystal in his hands. "But first let's devour this shard."

As Raith spoke, the black coat he was wearing wriggled out like a whip and snatched the crystal shard out of his hand, entering his belly alongside the crystal.

Immediately Raith began to vomit, his eyes glowing red and his head more nauseous than he could endure. His eyes rolled out and he passed out the second time.

Raith's eyes slowly opened but they opened to the scenery of the desert. His domain of darkness was long gone. Everyone was also gone except the boss monster that stayed still in one place, with his head bowed.

Raith touched his head and slowly recovered from the effect of his nauseous state. He looked at the long list of black tabs in the front of him.

"...what in the world?" Raith grinned as he read the tabs from up to down.

He could feel his body lighter than ever as he stood up, he also felt nimble, he jumped and darted into the air, over hundred meters before landing back on the floor with no sound of stepping on the ground and the sands sweeping around his legs as they gently kissed the ground.

With that level of jump, there should have been a thud. He looked at his stats.

There were changes, the part the aura used to be in was gone and his energy was being addressed as darkness.

What was also with the enormous change in cosmic energy? It had something to do with the crystal shard, Raith knew something but wasn't giving it away.

His eyes bear down at the increase in his intelligence stat. Somehow that seemed like the only part he was impressed with.

"I found a way to escape the Celestia code." He muttered to himself with a corner of his lips arching up.

He pocketed and looked at the boss golem that was still very much alive, he looked around too.

"The temple is gone?" He mumbled to himself and began to walk to the golem boss.

He pulled the black sword out of his inventory and swirled it stylishly, pointing it to the golem that stayed bowed regardless.

"Don't be sad, I am giving you a chance to serve me..." Raith said as he pushed the sword into the monster's stone throat. There was no hint of difficulty driving the sword into the monster's neck, black and red streaks flowed out of the sword as it entered and came out from the back.

[You have killed a monster that surrendered]

[The darkness in you has risen]

The message came as if he was supposed to feel bad, but Raith looked the other way.

"Nothing was waiting for him but death... that is after all what I am."

He replied to the system and pointed one finger at the golem's body that scattered around.

Before he spoke, dark smoke gathered around him– all around the desert.

"Awaken..."

Swooooossssshhh

The darkness swept everywhere and under the bright sun of the desert materialized to form black bodies– more defined than before. Before it was just black with purple marks but their appearance had changed and Raith had a faint idea as to why.

They were black but their torso was red and that red color ran cracks around their body. Golems that had hollowed eyes were equipped with round red eyes, and no nose or mouth features.

Raith was surprised. He was only intending to summon the boss monster.

He was the last one to emerge.

The smoke formed together and materialized to form a humanoid with the same height as him, round red eyes, a red torso down to his abs, from his hips down to his leg and other areas were jet black but the red cracks ran around his body too.

The golem went down on one knee and bowed its head, the rest that had answered Raith's call along with him also repeated the same gesture.

[You can name the dark commander]

"Commander?" Raith was shocked at what he saw. For Cheche whom he fought, he wasn't a commander, it just came out as a soldier.

'I guess, a B-rank dungeon is no joke... a summoned dark soldier is staring off as a commander'

In an army it is only normal that there be ranks, this was not a power rank but an authority rank. With Raith at the very top of that rank as the Monarch of the army of darkness.

'Let's call you...'

"...Kortopi"

[You have named the dark commander, Kortopi]
