Once again as Haru looked around he realised that he had been teleported somewhere. Like before the place he had teleported to was unfamiliar and he didn't have a clue what was going on as he appeared in a long corridor next to a double set of doors that were made out of metal and had long black chains holding them closed. He looked around to assess the situation and then saw that Li Jun and Ralph were standing behind him with their hands on the door.
"They don't seem to be in a good mood today. I bet they knew that someone would come for the test today." Li Jun stated before removing his hand from the door.
"Are you sure it's a good idea for him to enter? If he doesn't succeed within then it would be a fate worse than death. I don't think death is such a bad option in comparison to what is inside there." Ralph asked to make sure that Li Jun knew what he was going to get Haru into.
"You think those guys are a problem? He has met one of those soul devourers while learning the law of space. These guys should be a piece of cake." Li Jun smiled, but that didn't seem to reassure Ralph.
"Don't underestimate a Talvo. Even the master had trouble when he was capturing them. Even though their strength will be reduced greatly, they will still be able to torture someone's soul until they beg for death. They are one of the most despicable beings master had come across during his travels. Yet they hold great value when it comes to resurrection." Ralph said to Li Jun before turning to look at Haru.
"You had better be sure that you want to go ahead with this. If you don't succeed, you will wish your soul had died with your body." Ralph said suddenly but Haru was confused. He didn't know what he was supposed to do. Yet they were both talking about it as if they knew exactly what he had to do.
"Sorry, But what am I supposed to be doing anyway?" Haru asked, concerned about what they had both been talking about but Li Jun had other ideas.
"You will figure it out." He said before putting a hand on Haru's shoulder and pushing him into the door.
As soon as Haru's body hit the metal door. It rippled like water and he fell right through it and stumbled over his feet before ending up falling to his knees. He stood up in shock. He wasn't prepared for Li Jun to push him and it came as kind of a shock to him.
"Wait! You still didn't tell me what to do!" Haru shouted and ran back over to the door thinking that the same thing would happen and he would end up outside but he soon realised that wasn't the case as his face hit the cold metal and he stumbled back clutching his head.
With his strength right now it seemed unlikely that he could get hurt from running into an object. But the metal on the door seemed very dense. So dense in fact that it absorbed none of the force from him running into it so he took the brunt of the impact and it gave him a slight concussion.
"Li Jun! Ralph!?" Haru shouted out butt after waiting for a few moments there was no reply.
"Fine, I guess they want me to do this alone. But it would have been nice if they at least explained what it is that I have to do exactly." Haru turned around to see that he was in a large room that was almost pitched black if not for the slight glow of something at the other side. It was rectangular and almost looked like the light was leaking out from underneath a door.
"So I guess I have to go through there huh?" He thought as he looked at the door. He began to walk towards it but as he did he felt that he was being watched and there was a high pitched whistling noise that sounded like it was coming from one of the corners. There was something in the room with him and from what Li Jun and Ralph talked about. The thing that was in here with him was extremely dangerous.
"Kun. Come out." Haru said out loud and within a second of him speaking bright orange flames began to burn up high into the room and illuminated the whole room.
"What is it?" Kun asked. He was confused as to why Haru had called him here. They were still within his soul ocean for sure but he didn't know where they were until a loud cry shook the room.
Both Haru and Kun looked over to the corner of the room where there was a single humanoid shadow in the corner of the room in the fetal position and was rocking back and forth.
"What is that thing? It looks so pitiful." Kun said as he looked at the thing in the corner.
"I'm not sure… But I think it was called a Talvo or something?" Haru repeated the word that Ralph had mentioned although he had no idea what it meant. But upon hearing the word Kun twitched slightly before gently chuckling to himself.
"A Talvo? Hehe, I know what it is now." Kun said, sounding like he was smiling even though he didn't have a mouth.
"You do? Apparently, they are dangerous. Is that right?" Haru asked, confused. Ralph and Li Jun said that it would be dangerous. But seeing it like this made him feel a little bad. He didn't know why but it looked as though it was crying.
"Yes, I know exactly what it is…" Kun said in the same voice and then flew towards it before stopping in front of the Talvo. As soon as Kun moved, the thing screamed louder and louder until it felt as though Haru would go deaf if he listened to it anymore.
Without saying so much as a word Kun expanded to twice the size of the Talvo in the corner of the room and laughed once again. But this time sounding like an old man that just won money from a casino.
"What are you doing? Those things can torment souls can't they?" Haru asked.
"Yes, Human souls. But my kind that isn't the case. Phoenix's have an immortal soul. That's why they can rise from their own ashes after they die. These Talvos… Well, they're a source of food for my kind…" Kun said and then without warning surrounded the Talvo with his flames and smothered it with them.
More cries of terror and pain rang out through the air and made Haru dizzy from the sound alone. Before slowly dying down as Kun quickly turned around. Suddenly he shot forwards at full speed and flew toward Haru with a look of anger on his face as if he was coming to eat him next.
Haru barely had time to react before Kun appeared next to him and a gust of wind shot through the room, blowing Haru's hair out of his face. He quickly turned to look at Kun who was holding another one of the dark shadows with his talon's around its neck.
"Haha, You think you can sneak around when I'm here huh?" Kun asked before swallowing it whole. Then after he swallowed the second Talvo he flew into the distance of the room illuminating it as he flew around in different directions.
Haru stood still as he watched on as Kun created a light show in the dark. He counted a total of eighteen cries from different locations before Kun finally flew back to Haru but now with a slight bulge on the front of his stomach.
"Where are we by the way? We are still within your soul ocean. But something feels odd. You don't have any Qi surrounding you…" Kun said while looking at Haru.
"Well, I guess that's because I'm dead right now. And this is the mansion on top of the floating island. Li Jun asked for help in reviving me and I was brought here." Haru took the time to explain the situation to Kun before he sighed and said that he wasn't interested.
"Just make sure that you get resurrected. I don't want to stay trapped within your soul forever." Kun said before vanishing. He sounded pretty laid back for learning what had happened. But Haru concluded that it was because he didn't want to break character.
Kun had worked so hard to create a cool and calm character. But after he had what he wanted to say he disappeared within a ball of fire as if he was running from the situation.
The room was now completely silent. The high pitched sound that was previously in the room was now gone and he no longer had the feeling that he was being watched. He could finally relax. Although he was still surprised by the fact that all it took was a phoenix to scare away the Talvo's. That was probably the reason why Ralph allowed him to enter in the first place.
And Li Jun wouldn't send him somewhere where he could really end up dying completely without even the chance of resurrection. He was still unsure about how the resurrection would work but he knew that his questions would be answered upon walking through the door at the other side of the room. So that is what he did. He walked across the room and opened the door.
He was blinded by the light as he entered what appeared to be a lab of some kind. He came to that conclusion by the fact that there was a long glass tube that reminded him of a filtration system. As he was looking around he heard the door creak open from behind him.
He turned around to see that Li Jun and Ralph were now in the room with him but were both staring at him with their mouths gaped open and wide eyes.
"What? Did you expect me to die or something?" Haru asked. He was confused as to why they were staring at him like there were. But he was distracted as something metallic hit the ground behind him.
He turned around and looked down at the floor to see a black key was laying on the tiles.
