<Ding! The letter from the goddess resonates with the environment.>
<Spatial magic detected!>
"You finally came, o' fated one…."
At that moment, I heard the system sound at the same time, and I felt like I was getting swept up by a wave.
My consciousness started blurring, and it was like I was started getting transported from the outside of the lake to another place.
The process of being exposed to spatial magic was not a pleasant one.
Normally in the game, whenever the main character was exposed to spatial magic, he would always lose consciousness, and we wouldn't be seeing anything except darkness.
In a sense, it was a pretty normal thing for developers to use that as a loading screen since we would be changing locations.
However, for me, that is not the case.
My trait [Ego] is refusing to bow down to this kind of feeling, and it makes me go against this need to lose consciousness.
So, I was awake during this whole operation, and I must say I am impressed.
Like, I have never expected spatial magic to be like this.
I don't know if you have heard it or not, but in the universe, neither time nor space is constant itself.
The four-dimensional space-time theory represents that time and space are linked, and the thing I saw while I was traveling was just like that.
I have seen some time fractions from the universe of Aeris, at the same time, some different places in the universe that has yet to be explored.
To be honest, it felt surreal. It felt like my brain was getting too much information, and if I kept looking at this information flow, I would lose my mind.
So, I did the most logical thing and closed my eyes, and without waiting for too long, I felt the touch of something hard on my feet.
It looks like I finally reached the place I was meant to be.
After I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a ceiling with some grey stalactites hanging.
However, the ceiling is huge, and it must have at least 20 meters in height.
After pulling myself together, I started looking around to see some clues about what I should do and where I should go.
After observing this place, I can say the place I am in is some sort of cave. However, I can see some ruins in the middle part of the cave.
The cave itself looks pretty dark, but at the same time, I can see everything clearly.
It is like there is a light coming, but I don't know where from.
"Come to me 'o fated one."
At that moment, I heard the same sound in my head, but this time I felt like I knew where I should go.
The lady is calling me, and she is waiting for me in the middle of ruins, I know it.
Just like that, I started walking to the middle of the cave while observing everything around me.
As I got closer to my destination, I realized something.
This place is certainly bigger than it looks.
The more I got closer, the more it felt like ruins got farther.
No, they are not getting farther. This place is messing with my perception of length.
I walked and walked and walked.
Moreover, I realized another thing.
This place is also messing with my sense of time.
It feels like I have walked for days, but my body doesn't show any signs of tiredness, which means I have yet to walk too much.
With all those combined together, I am pretty sure that Lady Nyx is testing me right now.
Or, it is just this place is really magical.
Both of these are possible; however, one thing is certain. I will reach that place.
No matter how many hours or days I need to walk, it doesn't matter.
Just like that, I kept walking and walking and walking.
The more I walked, the more I felt like I was getting closer to my destination.
However, after some point, I started to feel like the gravity affecting me had increased.
The steps I needed to take to keep going forward started getting heavier and heavier, and with that, I felt like I really started getting tired.
But I didn't stop.
I kept taking all those steps no matter how hard it was until I felt my feet start bleeding.
My feet were hurting with each step I took the pain increased.
But so, what?
Do you think you will be able to bend me with that amount of pain alone?
At that moment, I felt how my trait [Ego] was affecting my thought process.
The unwavering will to bow down to anyone, the infinite amount of arrogance, and the feeling of superiority. Those are the things that came with my trait [Ego].
Then, is it a bad thing?
Is being arrogant or being a person who looks down on others a bad thing?
No, it is not.
No matter what, every person living in this world would like to look down on others or feel the sweet taste of superiority.
This is the nature of every sentient being.
Therefore, there is no reason for me to reject my own nature.
In this world, I refuse to acknowledge the fact that a person is above me.
I refuse to bow my head to anyone.
I will live with my pride intact until I die.
This is my way.
So, this kind of stupid will test is not even challenging.
"You are finally here, my chosen one."
Suddenly with a shiny sparkle, I felt everything around me change.
The ruins, which were farther away from me, were just before me suddenly.
It seems like Lady Nyx is finally decided not to play around too much.
"You are as sharp as ever; nothing gets away from your eyes."
At that moment, I heard a graceful voice coming from behind me.
I tried to turn my face back but got blocked by a weird force.
"You shall not turn back. You are not ready to see my appearance with the way you are right now."
Said that graceful voice again.
"I see. Then are you the Lady Nyx that summoned me here?"
I asked just to be sure.
"Yes, I am Nyx. The forgotten primitive goddess of Darkness, o' my chosen one."
That graceful voice replied while getting closer to me.
You need to know that my 2 perception stat is not just for show.
My hearing and observation skills were always better than my peers, and since Lady Nyx herself was not trying to conceive her steps, it was not that hard to sense where she was.
"I see. It was just as I expected, and you are really the goddess of Darkness. You must also know that half of my soul is not from this world, don't you?"
I asked while trying to fight the urge to turn my head.
"As expected, you figured that out. Yes, I know your other part of the soul, which is not from this world as well. However, that was just an unexpected situation. Your body has been chosen as the vessel for my child from the beginning, and I have no relation with your soul transfer."
She said while hugging me from behind.
Although I couldn't see her face, just the smell coming from her body was enough to drive me crazy.
I am pretty sure if it were another person, they would have already gone crazy just from this smell.
And her graceful touch on my face, she is still testing me, it seems.
"So, you are saying I need to figure that out myself since you don't know anything about it? I understand. I shall figure that out myself."
"You are quick to understand. It seems the other part of your soul I don't know is pretty smart, isn't he? That is good. You will need everything you can get to improve yourself to overcome the things the future holds for you."
At that moment, I felt a sting of pain in my neck.
I see, so she bit me, huh?
"Urgh, then, you probably called me here to awaken my class by giving me your blessing, correct?"
I asked, ignoring the pain in my neck.
I don't know what her deal is, but it feels like she is a bit clingy.
"Yes, I have called you here to give you my blessing. The reason why you weren't able to awaken your class was that the god of Light's blessing wouldn't be effective on you. Your body was already a vessel for the chosen one of ??? from the beginning. And their blessing won't be effective for you."
"I see. That was probably because the god of lights blessing is not focused on only one person but focused on the entire continent. That was the reason why it was you who called me here, right? To give me your full blessing."
"You are right again. That is the reason it is I who is giving you a blessing. Then, let's awaken your class without wasting too much time."
She said and put her two delicate hands on my head and started muttering in some unknown language I didn't know.
"Tehh jhuthsiet jheragin, ae crumanshel auf ae nhyrlbedii"
With that, I lost consciousness again…
