Dig it

"I think we can find way." Jake waved toward Orin and gestured him to start digging. Junan saw that the young kid was excited about digging ground. He asked, "Do you think that digging has something to do with this specific dead?"

Junan was not sure whether it would work or not. "There is no harm if we test it. Our team should escape this pool of dead else the precious time would waste away." Jake spoke confident. He was more eager than others to leave the area. His stealing of the dead did not give him exclusive Exp however he was spared from the punishment. He was clear about the reason behind.

Junan nodded at his explanation. "I like the brains of young blood. They do not sit idle." Junan commented and went to see the process of digging.

Ahram was also standing there so he dragged the dead human toward them in order to confirm the ongoing oddity. Princess Mala saved her magic soul in the ground of the pool of dead while the dead human was saving her life by spying activities of the prisoners.

It was complex method of saving the princess. The magic soul was being hit with the thorny mace. It was more than torture for the soul. Orin thrust the mace again in the ground and dug it forcefully.

Few smashes on the ground made the dead cry again. The red tears fell on the ground. It confirmed their suspicion. Now they wanted to know why the dead human was crying.

"Such a thing happening in front of my eyes I once watched a movie but there the heck…" Orin was about to relate what scenario of the movie he watched but stopped in the middle.

"Correct me if I am wrong. My imagination is running wild but I think there is third person behind this. We have our stronger enemy watching us. Things are related to each other. I mean you can test it by theory. Someone possibly connected with this ground or the area perhaps this task?" Orin spoke though his words were incomplete because of messed ideas.

"Your idea is not completely off the chart. The interpretation can meet the theory possibly. The dead spy must be working for someone else but…" Junan took deep breath.

He was unsure. This game portal was designed differently so the possibility was high that they used magic concepts. The chances were high because in the advanced gaming world this portal brought many ancient gaming concepts and the signs were pointing that there would be unending rush of concepts in the future levels though they could be differently different.

"If it is ancient then we should keep digging so that the enemy behind the curtain shows up." Jake reckoned from their conversation and suggested.

"Indeed this is the best way to bring out the enemy." Junan confirmed. Others heard their conversation and came near. Clark heard and asked, "I can use my hammer and smash the ground?"

They looked at him, "No we need to torture the enemy first." Junan waved his hand.

Princess Mala was helpless and could not move. She was born with half magic else she might have reached in the pool of dead and faced the team.

Her eyes were tainted with the red tears. The guardians of the gates saw her condition. They were aware about her incomplete magic. Her condition was apparent. They shifted her in the open chamber. She was unable to move or act on her own.

The constant torture on the soul disclosed her secret. The second secret was no more secret.

The third team got aware of it. Princess Mala could see them using mace and talking. They were ruthless in her eyes. After thinking silently she gave up and broke the spell.

Her soul was riddled and she was near death already. The spell vanished and the dead human stones fell on the ground one by one. The hiding five members were shocked to see this.

They were hell sure that the third would not be able to escape just like them. Third team battled with weapons when it was necessary and they used their brains too when it needed.

All of them saw the crumbling statues and stood alert. The restrictions were lifted. Third team was now standing in the open ground. There were several people crowding around a woman.

She was sitting on the big chair with the wet eyes. Sadness was visible on her face. She was looking like woman from some fairytale. People were talking some random words.

They were also crying because their princess was sad. "It is the worst day in the history of Mala City. Our dearest princess fell in the Comma of Sadness. What should we do to bring her back from the comma?" A native asked from other crying.

Junan and his team members were looking at each other after listing the gossip. What type of task appeared in the game portal? They were confused whether they should kill this princess or cure her Comma of Sadness?

"I pity for this princess however I am hundred percent sure that she was behind the pool of dead and keeping us confined." Clark spoke bluntly.

Albert placed his hand on his mouth. "Shut it low. Can't you see there are thousand over natives? They can hear and understand that we made their beloved princess suffer." Albert minced last words under his teeth.

Clark understood his mistake. He held his hammer on his shoulder and spoke, "We are here to say some joke and make happy the saddened princess." He chuckled foolishly.

Albert placed hand on his forehead. Clark was too much to handle. Jake Lin was looking at the princess from the distance. She would be killed according to the task. But the question was how they could kill her in front of loyal natives?

The people were shedding tears and asking the guardians to inform the king. They wanted to save her.
