Chapter 181 King's Room
Lyrian knew he didn't have much more time left. Standing on the circular platform, another key materialized in front of him. For a second, he was tempted to grab it but quickly imagined that it would only lead to the tower top.
"Spade and Glis are probably on their way. They are smart, they would figure out how to get near me somehow. I need to be fast."
Lyrian said, dashing towards a certain hallway.
"This is my last one, but it will have to do. I'm almost out of mana anyways..."
Lyrian took out his final bottle of mana before spitting off the cork on top drinking the elixir and storing it right afterwards.
He was indeed not far off with his guess, as Glis and Spade had both found the key room at the same time, even though they had gone two separate directions.
They were in a speed race, to catch Lyrian. An intense one. As soon as the two of them reached the circular platform with the key, Glis summoned a root of ice that quickly extended toward Spade.
He was running forward into it, so he couldn't dodge it at its speed. Instead, he continued forward while slicing it up into several pieces. Spade, being that much quicker, grabbed the key first. He dodged several other spikes of ice hurtled at him by Glis, as he put the key inside of the lock. Once turning it, he looked at Glis before smirking, vanishing in a beam of teal light soon after.
Glis furrowed her brows in anger, as another key suddenly materialized in front of her. She didn't know if this was the correct path, but right now, she had no other choice but to follow Spade.
She couldn't risk having Spade catch a weakened Lyrian before she did, as that would mean the core being taken. So, she too put the key in the lock and vanished.
After running around for a while, Lyrian suddenly saw two Magma Dwellers blocking a large entrance, armed guards with spears. The thing they blocked was a door, one made of metal that was over 15 feet in height.
As soon as they saw Lyrian beaming toward them, they pointed their spears outwards, grunting angrily to ward off the intruder. The boy didn't follow their rules. Seeing this, they stomped one foot forward, preparing to skewer him.
'I have to conserve the little mana I have left. After using Shadow Puppet, even Enhance takes away more mana than I want to use right now. I can probably only use it 3 more times...'
He thought to himself, nearing the spear tips of the Magma Dwellers as he Enhanced his foot and dashed above them, kicking into the wall to the side as he made his way past.
'That's one... this door, it was guarded, so it shouldn't be locked!'
He imagined.
'But... it will still take me too long to open. I'll have to use Enhance again.'
He Enhanced his hand before slamming the heel of his palm into the door. If he had tried to push it normally, it would have creaked open, but using Enhance allowed the floor to fly open.
Landing on the floor, Lyrian dashed inside. As he did, the door hit the wall before being forced to bounce back and slam shut from the pressure of Lyrian's attack.
At that moment, Lyrian saw that the door indeed had a locking system, but not one that could be opened by a key. Instead, it could only be locked and unlocked from the inside, a wooden slab locking system.
Picking up a long, thin slab of wood from the side of the door, he quickly put it on there. The guard tried to push their way through at that very moment, but their efforts were in vain, as the door was locked shut.
Lyrian turned around and surveyed the room he was in. It was spacious, with a large bed opposite the door in the middle of the room, a few armor stands, weapon cases, and other trinkets and gadget-holding furniture.
"This... is the king's room."
Lyrian thought, knowing he had failed to locate the treasury. He felt a bit devastated, knowing he had drank his last mana elixir and only had one Enhance left.
"No... wait. This is still a good thing. It means it's close by, the treasury. And on top of that..."
He jogged over to one of the drawers near the bed, rummaging through the giant structure as he quickly found a large ring with several foot-long keys hanging on it.
His eyes lit up as he saw this, a smile appearing on his face.
"The king's room! Of course, it has keys!"
"How high... Silandra will catch up soon. Just how high did that bastard go!?"
Spade yelled, reaching the next floor as he scanned everywhere quickly, and then moved on once again. He arrived on the next floor and looked around, but nothing. Then the next, and then the next.
Finally, he arrived at a floor where he saw something unfamiliar on the ground. He squinted his eyes, recognizing it near a hallway.
"That's... a cork?"
He walked over to it and picked it up, inspecting it closer. There was a bit of blue liquid on it, which he licked. Slapping his tongue on the roof of his mouth a few times, he quickly realized what it was.
"Mana elixir?"
He dropped the cork, preparing to run into the hallway as footsteps quickly caught up behind him.
"Silandra..."
He rolled his eyes, sprinting into the hallway, as Glis followed him closely behind. She noticed the cork but didn't pay much mind to it.
The Magma Dwellers outside still relentlessly pushed the door, trying to get their way in. This was a disgrace, for a random human boy to outsmart them like this. They were special soldiers, one of the best in the king's cavalry, and... to be taken out like this... It was an undoubtful stain on their reputation.
As they continued to push, their final heave was actually successful! But, it was way too easy of a push for them to have broken the wooden plank. No, instead, they lost their balance and fell inside, as a boy jumped across the top of their backs and entered the hallway once again.nO(velusb/c-o/m
