“You said you were looking for me?”

Ha-beom landed in an inconspicuous place and walked out from behind the two. It was because only four or five people knew that he had become a fusion creature. He didn’t want to make a big fuss about this.

“Oh, you came so quickly!”

Harlin, who turned his head to find him, showed a startled look on his face.

“I was just checking some of the supplies stored in the Abyssal Den from two floors up.”

Habeom made up words at random and answered.

“Dae-in Ha, thank you very much for allowing us to proceed with our exploration here.”

Fellerton was the first to speak.

“Your Highness has found the lady’s tomb.”

“Where are you talking about?”

Ha-beom’s gaze, which had been frowned upon, soon turned to the center of the room.

“wait a minute. Could it be that this is the place that Lady Sadichi chose to rest?”

It was at this point that he noticed that the layout inside this room was a bit different from the rest of the Abyssal Den… … .

This place seemed to have been originally planned to be used as a conference room or reception room, but on the contrary, the walls were full of various kinds of swords and armor, and they had a variety of items from six countries to the extreme west. However, due to the traces of the years, most of them were already rusted or corroded. Unless you look closely, it’s easy to think of it as a lump of scrap metal covered with dust.

And in the middle of the room was a huge sarcophagus.

Habeom thought it was just an ordinary long table. Most of the furniture in the Abyssal Den was made of processed stone, so there was not much sense of incongruity with a stone table like that in the middle of the room. It wasn’t until Fellerton reminded him that he realized that the table was anything but ordinary.

“Your guess is correct. Aren’t you still a lady? To find such a dignified tomb location.”

Saman Fellerton was the voice of deep infatuation.

“Since he hid it so deep in the mountains, he would never have been easily disturbed by anyone. Besides, there are so many magical lands around here, so you could say you’ve chosen a location that’s sure to be the topic of a lifetime! When this news reaches Frostsache, the whole kingdom will surely be in an uproar!”

It was only a few decades ago that the Old Secular Church found the tower of refuge according to the prophecy.

Doesn’t this mean that a blood relative from the far west had already crossed the layers of mountains and set foot on this land alone?

Ha-beom, who had not taken his eyes off the sarcophagus, was completely focused on another question that suddenly popped up.

“Then, is Mrs. Sadichi still lying in that sarcophagus right now?”

Harleen nodded lightly.

“Seeing that the key to the zodiac does not point in any other direction, this seems to be the last tomb the noblewoman was looking for. After a blood relative goes into eternal sleep, lifespan also stops, so if it weren’t for the interruption of external forces, you would be in a deep sleep right now.”

“Large… … . The interference by external forces that Your Highness is talking about is something I can’t dare to guarantee anywhere else, but this place is especially flooded with gunners. A mob of shooters breaks out about once a month. Even so, can Your Highness really be sure that no one disturbed the lady?”

Ha-beom very kindly reminded the two of them.

The two couldn’t hide their embarrassment at the same time.

Fellerton, who came to his senses after a while, asked with his expression completely changed.

“Is it a water flooding area?”

“yes. The attack by the gunners that happened just a moment ago is not an accident that happened by chance, but it can be said that it is a kind of normal situation.”

Now that the power supply of the shelter tower has been reconnected, the inside of the cave in the abyss is brightly lit, and it has served as a great deterrent to the shooters, but the seventy floors are still dangerous depths, so it was unreasonable to provide people with permanent residence.

After exchanging glances once, Princess Moya and Pellaton rushed to the sarcophagus, and the joy from before had completely disappeared from their faces.

“His Highness Harleen, can you open this sarcophagus?”

“Let’s see… … . The sealing method seems to be the highest level of lineage sealing. I will have to use primal blood to open it.”

“Seeing that there is no sign of damage, it is likely that the archers were not interested in this sarcophagus. Your Highness, I will take care of opening the lid of the coffin.”

“i get it. If we rescue the lady safely, we won’t be able to keep her in a deep sleep in such a dangerous place.”

Harleen bared his razor sharp fangs and bit hard on his wrist, leaving the red blood that leaked onto the lid of the coffin. Then, the blood that flowed along the hole in the coffin immediately emitted a deep red light.

This meant that the spell still worked.

Ha-beom also wanted to be a little unexpected. In an area occupied by gunners, the energy of living beings must have been very tempting. He couldn’t understand how the shooter hadn’t once thought of doing something about this tomb for nearly a hundred years. Could it be that Mrs. Sadichi had some bizarre technique to prepare for the forces of chaos?

After a while, the princess spoke in a subdued voice.

“The seal has been broken.”

“I will do it.”

Fellerton first leaned deeply toward the sarcophagus, then grabbed the coffin by the sides and took a deep breath.

“Excuse me!”

As he uttered the words, he lifted the palm-thick lid and carefully set it down next to the sarcophagus.

Ha-beom thought that strange phenomena such as black energy overflowing everywhere would occur, or that he would hear angry cries such as ‘Who dares to disturb my deep sleep?’, but the result was complete silence. nothing happened.

Harleen stepped forward and bent down to look inside the coffin. And then she caught her breath and covered her mouth in surprise.

“How could this be… … .”

“What are you doing?”

Ha-beom also moved forward. At this moment, his curiosity was far ahead of his self-restraint to refrain from harsh actions.

As soon as he looked into the sarcophagus, he stood still and abandoned it. The coffin was empty. There was no noble lady of a blood relative who seemed to be full of anger, and only two white bones were placed inside this narrow and long sarcophagus. Judging by the degree of weathering, the skeleton’s owner had already left this world a long time ago, and it seemed unlikely that it would ever wake up from a long slumber again.

Soon, a bunch of questions popped into Ha-beom’s head.

Why are there two people in the tomb of a blood relative?

Could Sadic really be one of the two in here?

If not, where did she go?

But anyway, at least one of the questions he had had been answered. As for why the shooters didn’t care about this place. Because, to them, there were no traces of any living beings here.

“Gin-troll, Jin-troll!”

Ha-beom called the other person several times in his mind, and the opponent eventually had no choice but to break the long silence.

[I am here.]

He didn’t even have time to ask Jintroll what he was doing before spitting out the question.

“Do you have a video record of this room? About a hundred years ago.”

[Storing videos takes up a lot of space. Therefore, if it is not a record related to the safety of the refuge tower, it has been stored for up to five years, so the record for this part has already been deleted.]

Jintroll replied.

[However, I do remember that a group of horses and horses visited the refuge tower about a hundred years ago. They came all the way here on their own without taking a special train.]

‘A hundred years ago, a group of people came?’

Harleen suddenly reached out and pulled a vial from among the skulls.

The blood in it was still clear and transparent, as if it had just been taken out of the body.

“The key to the zodiac pointed to the blood in this bottle.”

she muttered.

“This must be the primordial blood in the lady’s body. It is one of the sources of the purest kindred.”

“then… … , Are you saying that the lady has already died?”

Fellerton asked in disbelief.

“Your lady… … Did you get hit by a shooter?”

“If it had been the shooter, the sarcophagus wouldn’t have been preserved so perfectly.”

Habeom intervened and said.

“Is there a custom among your blood relatives to keep your own blood aside before falling into a deep sleep?”

Harleen shook her head.

“Then my guess is correct. Placing this blood in the sarcophagus was obviously not prepared to open the seal to future generations.”

Habeom pursed his lips and thought to himself before speaking.

“You don’t need primordial blood to open the sarcophagus anyway. If so, this means that the person who finds the bottled blood must be the lady’s direct descendant. Rather than calling this blood a burial item, it seems that it was specially prepared for the descendants.”

Princess Moya shuddered and raised her head.

“That you prepared for us? no way… … Are there other organs in this room? Fellerton!”

“yes.”

Sensei Saman also forced himself to come to his senses and began to search the inside of the drawing room together, and soon the two discovered something new. On one wall, far from the sarcophagus, they found an obsidian enginer similar to the key to the zodiac. It had the appearance of something resembling a rice bowl sandwiched between four bronze dragon pillars.

And this time, Princess Moya’s fatigue could not activate the magic that had been spread in advance in the organ.

The answer to this is already very clear.

The requirement for blood to activate it is already far beyond the level of being a descendant of the Sadichi royal family.

“majesty… … .”

Fellerton looked at Princess Moya.

After hesitating for a long time, Princess Moya finally nodded and opened the lid of the glass bottle she was holding, and then poured the magical energy-melted blood into the black jade vessel.

After a while, red patterns began to appear on the wall one by one, and they soon intertwined with each other to create dozens of vivid murals.

“This… … .”

Habeom’s expression suddenly became serious.

He could see that the content of the mural was the message the person in the coffin wanted to leave. It is a painting about the last life of the deceased.
