Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 192 - John's Sacred Treasure



John went through the whole room; it took around 10 minutes for the mountains of gold to be stored safely away. 

It was around 20 mountain piles in total. John couldn't even imagine how many coins he had in total but knew it'd be somewhere in the thousands or possibly tens of thousands. The room wasn't really that big. 

"With all this money... It should be possible." John muttered 

"Possible for what?" Ariel asked 

"To buy the one thing I've been dying to buy ever since I lost my memories" John replied 

"Which is?" Serena asked 

"A secret" He replied with a smile 

[I can't wait to see their reaction...] John thought to himself without noticing the grin he had on his face. 

Serena felt a cold shiver once she saw John's cold grin while Ariel wondered what it could be. 

"Let's go." 

Master Sylvia was waiting for them at the door, which lead to the other room. 

"I wonder what's in the room..." Muttered Serena 

"We would've been there by now, if somebody hadn't stopped us because they wanted to enjoy the 'moment' for a little longer" Said John 

"You're referring to me, aren't you?" Asked Serena as she stared at him 

"Who else would I be referring to?" Asked John as he stared back 

"You can't blame me for wanting to swim in a pool of gold!" 

"What kind of argument is that?" 

"You two, don't argue now..." Said Ariel as she intervened 

Following that, a voice came from the side of the room they were heading to. 

"Hurry up." 

It was from Master Sylvia, despite being unintentional, she sounded very intimidating from those words alone. Even while knowing that it was unintentional, he still didn't want to keep her waiting or get on her bad side after the moment they all just had. 

"Truce?" John asked as he turned to Serena 

Seeing this, she quickly nodded before saying 

"Truce." 

And just like that the three quickly and quietly walked towards Master Sylvia. 

Once they arrived at the door which blended into the wall, Master Sylvia gave them a quiet stare before asking 

"Do we have everything?" 

John looked around and then realised that he hadn't gotten the magic core. 

"Oh, wait, give me a second-" 

The moment he said that, the room began to shake, as if there was an earthquake. 

Seeing this, John stepped on the ground expecting to find himself standing in front of the core, but contrary to his expectations, he didn't move from his spot. 

"The tower, it doesn't have much time, hurry up, John!" Said Serena 

"[Ah right... I don't have posse- Maybe it's better if I don't say the word so that I don't accidentally activate it.] Thought John as he propelled himself straight to the mana core 

As he flew towards it, he stretched out his hands, clenched into a fist, before stopping and activating the ring right before he reached the core 

It was a Purple Stone in the shape of a cube, decent in size yet vast in magical power. 

"Hm? Is it impossible...?" 

The ring activated but the core wasn't stored inside. Confused, John stretched out his hand towards it and could feel a strange rythamic beat coming from it. Almost as if it had a pulse 

"What...?" He asked as his finger touched it 

The instant his finger did, the core disappeared, and the weight inside of the ring, significantly increased and he felt a slight surge of power 

[What's this...?] 

John was snapped back into reality by the sound and shaking of the earthquake 

"Velox, levite" 

He lifted off the ground before propelling himself straight towards the door, it took around 3 seconds to reach it, and the moment he did, he noticed that his fatigue from using all that magic power, had disappeared. 

Now that John was there, they all opened and passed through the door 

[Did the core do this...?] John wondered before running through the door and closing it behind him 

However, all of his thoughts were quickly overwhelmed and forgotten due to the sight in front of his eyes. 

It was another room, and it wasn't loaded with gold, but something much more valuable. There were displays and within them, contained weapons which gave off an overwhelming presence 

On the wall besides the weapon displays contained another door. Only this time, it was glowing a white colour, indicating that it wasn't a normal one, and was probably the exit. 

There were 3 weapons on display. On the left there was a small light wand with a reddish blue stone on the edge. It gave off a light, and safe aura as the magic flowing out of it, flowed calmly 

On the right was a long, dark rapier with a yellow magic stone at the edge. The magic flowing out of it was overpowering, it gave off an intimidating and dark aura. 

Master Sylvia stood and watched, ignoring the shaking, as the three each moved towards the treasure. 

They all had the same thought in mind. It was as if the weapons were calling out to them. 

"This feels familiar..." Muttered Ariel 

"Yeah... This feels dangerous... Maybe it's a trap?" Serena asked as she suddenly stopped 

John however kept moving, ignoring all sounds around him 

"Hey, John, maybe you should wait a little-" Said Ariel 

Without replying, John stopped and stood in front of the weapons display before stretching his arm out, to the weapon in front of him. 

They were two daggers which seemed to have some sort of small clock installed on the blade. Its appearance was like that of any regular dagger, along with the blade, and yet, it felt so much different. 

He grabbed on to them, and felt a strange sense of power. He also noticed something different about the air and sound of shaking. Almost as if it had slowed down. 

The instant he turned around to see if it was all in his mind, everything returned to normal. 

[Was it just my imagination...?] 

"John! Are you crazy!?" Serena shouted as she stood a few feet back 

She had all the right to be mad, they had to go through hell to bring him back from a possessed state, after all. 

"Don't worry, These are sacred treasures" He said
