"What are you doing, Master Alchemist? What did you summon?"
Not only Ayla, I'm afraid that everyone in the entire imperial capital can see this strange giant gate.
The soldiers nearby wanted to attack thousands of people but were stopped by Emperor Williams...
"The other party is our distinguished guest. How can you point your weapons at our guest? Why don't you retreat?" A group of soldiers made way.
Sean and Ayla could only continue forward and walk to Emperor Williams.
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask what you are doing and what is this door?!" Ayla frowned. Although Sean had just said that the door in front of them was the so-called "Gate of Truth", she still wanted them to admit it in person.
"Don't be nervous, Ms. Khalifa...or it would be better to just call her Her Majesty." Emperor Williams suddenly said.
Even the two marshals beside him were shocked.
Queen?
Why would Emperor Williams call the other Queen? Hogheim and Alec glanced at Ayla standing across from them. A witch from the Adak region, and from Jagun... Could she be...
Ayla briefly showed an expression of "surprise!", but she calmed down after just a few seconds.
As he also holds the royal power of a country, he will do a lot of investigations on neighboring countries. As long as he spends a little time, he should be able to find out that Queen Jagun has abdicated. It just depends on when the news will reach here.
"It seems you know everything, Your Majesty Williams." Ayla looked at the other party and said.
Since they are both emperors, there is no need to be respectful. Even the way they address each other is by their names.
"I've heard that Queen Ayla is an amazing witch. Before, I didn't believe that a member of the royal family could reach such a high level, but when I saw Ayla herself, I believed it... Thanks to you! Queen Ayla, it's because of you that you brought the stone tablet in your hand that we have the opportunity to summon the door that symbolizes the truth of the world." Williams showed a proud smile on his face.
Compared to his gloomy look yesterday, he looks full of confidence today.
"The slate in my hand?" Ayla recalled the Cain slate in her hand.
The most mysterious part of the wizarding world... a stone tablet carved with ancient runes by the ancient witch Kain.
Even if ordinary people held it in their hands, they wouldn't be able to decipher it. How did the other party use it? And this stone tablet was in my hands!
"It seems that Her Majesty is still confused?"
At this time, the great alchemist Meredith, who had been standing not far away, suddenly stood up and spoke.
"Does the Queen know what the stone tablet in your hand means?"
Ayla looked at the slate in her hand. As a researcher of ancient magic, these words were not difficult for her, but she was not very clear about the method of use.
"The stone tablet in your hand symbolizes a very powerful being, perhaps the mother of all living things... the great dark goddess of fertility, the Black Goat... Everything about her can be used as a medium to contact her, but that ancient deity has never bothered to condescend to any place. She only likes to receive favor from her believers by offering tributes." Meredith became more and more excited as she spoke.
I guess the people around him were just following orders and didn't know his own plan.
"So what's the price?" Sean looked at the other party and asked.
Meredith smiled coldly.
"That's a good question, Mr. Sean. But to gain the favor of the Supreme Mother Goddess, of course, you have to make some sacrifices..." It seems that Meredith has no intention of hiding anything.
He looked at Emperor Williams.
"Your Majesty, as long as the door of truth can be opened, all the secrets of this world will no longer be secrets. We can decipher anything. Similarly, waking up the little princess is just a piece of cake."
"Is... is that so? Then let the Great Alchemist handle everything."
The gate remained motionless in the darkness, but the black clouds in the lake in the center of the city gradually spread.
In the silent lightning, one could see faint, wriggling tentacles and irregularly shaped chunks of flesh emerging from the black cloud...
“Wait!”
Sean suddenly said at this time.
Everyone turned to look at him!
"Do you know what's behind the door? It might not be what you want. If you peek into the secrets of the abyss, you will be swallowed by it."
"Really?"
"...But I'm not one of those wizards who follow the rules. If I want to gain knowledge, I must pry into secrets. This is the fate of the omniscient." Meredith smiled coldly, and at that moment Sean seemed to feel something.
Nyarlathotep!
"It's you!"
The body activates its ability to instantly enter an alternate dimension...
Slowing down time will give you more time to directly eliminate the opponent!
However, just as Sean had just activated his ability, another powerful force pulled him out.
Unable to enter!
"It seems that the final key has been found, and the door of truth can finally be opened!" Meredith said excitedly.
Sean suddenly looked at the other person with wide eyes.
"Sean!"
He no longer cared about Aila's calls from beside him.
key……
That’s right.
I am the key!
Behind the door is another world, and the person who can open the door... or the person who can attract the person inside the door to open the door, is yourself!
"Nyarlathotep!" Sean suddenly shouted the name.
However, everyone around was still bewildered and confused...
Only Meredith walked towards the gate alone.
"Why does life exist in this world..."
"All history, all cause and effect..."
"All the power, all the war."
"It's all inside... It's the door leading to some palace. Open it again." He was laughing wildly.
At the same time, the huge door slowly moved.
Sean suddenly looked at the other people around him. They were all staring at the door in front of them as if they were tempted by it. Even the generals, the alchemists, Ayla and Williams were quietly waiting for it to open.
time,
It seemed as if everything slowed down in the blink of an eye, so slow that it almost disappeared.
The huge stone gate, hundreds of meters high, slowly opened a gap, and countless tentacles stretched out in an instant.
"Look, it appears... Oh, Lord of All, your servant wants more gifts, I want to know more, I want to know everything!"
The door opened, and there was a silent void at the entrance. At this moment, it seemed as if something was tearing off the veil from the cracks in the darkness.
Struggling to get out of the door...
An indescribably huge eye opened in the void.
