Chapter 376: The Deal Pt.12

Stepping into the cart Lake saw there were no empty seats but before he could say anything about it the problem was solved by the Temple Head. "Ras would you mind going to another cart?" The boy named Ras was another one of the Holy mages Lake had seen a few times and he didn't seem too happy about being sent away but he didn't turn the Temple Head down and quickly left the cart with a small wave to Tiff.

That left Dawn, Tiff, and the Temple Head as the only people left in the cart except for him so Taking the seat next to the Temple Head he watched as Tiff was presented the dagger. f(r)eewebn(o)vel.com

...

It felt kind of sudden because when they had been told they would be leaving the Holy Domain for the Light Domain Tiff had just accepted that her getting the Dagger any time soon was unlikely but she had been wrong. "Was it Jon who had it?"

"I don't know the person I was after seemed to figure out how I was tracking them eventually and just left it on a rock inside a small bag." Tiff found it too bad that Lake had been unable to figure out if Jon still had it or not but she was still grateful for him because he had really chased after whoever it had been for a really long time.

"Thanks for getting it back." She really meant this and it seemed Lake was happy that she acknowledged his hard work because he gave her a big smile in return. Tiff then looked to the Temple Head and said. "We were already going to go to the God of Light as soon as we got there so there's no need to change our plans but would you mind if we stopped and unsealed the dagger." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝙢

...

"That would be for the best." Lake had seen that the dagger was sealed while it was in Inner Vault so this question didn't come as a surprise but he didn't think the Temple Head would say yes as quickly as she did but he quickly realized why it was the only option with the next thing she said. "If we don't do it before leaving the Holy Domain who could say when the next opportunity will be. I'll have the caravan stop."

It seemed the unsealing had to be done while inside the Holy domain for whatever reason. When the Temple Head had left the cart to get all the others to stop Lake looked at Tiff and asked. "So why are you all leaving the Holy Domain?" He would much rather ask someone like Tiff because she was less likely to say something that hadn't been tailored to make him want to stay with them and he really needed to know if going with them was a good idea for him.

...

Hearing Lake's question Tiff realized he must not even know about the deal that had been struck between the Demon Lord and the God of Metal because he had been on the road for days. This kind of made the fact he didn't know such a huge thing her fault so she wasted no time in explaining what had happened.

"The God of Metal signed an alliance agreement with the Demon Lord to put an end to the genocide that was taking place within the Metal Domain. There are also a few other parts of the deal they made that we're still trying to get the Oracle to Tell us but she won't until we agree to let her go so there's a stalemate."

...

What Tiff just said made it sound like they had kidnapped the oracle or something but before he got the opportunity to ask he felt the cart come to a stop. Not wanting the Temple Head to come in while he asked if they kidnapped an Oracle Lake just went to get out.

Stepping out he was quickly pushed out of the way by a large group of people around his age that he recognized as the 23 group that Tiff and Dawn were part of. "Did he really find it?" Lake found it odd he had been pushed out of the way because they wanted to ask a question that was about him and he could have answered but he knew it was just because they were excited for their friend.

...

Instead of answering the question Tiff held the dagger out so everyone could see it before moving them out of the way so she and Dawn could get out of the cart. "Are you about to unseal it?" Tiff nodded before saying. "Yeah, we've got to hurry though so stop getting in the way."

She didn't want to be rude but they were for sure being chased by Demon Worshipers so they had to get moving again as soon as possible. "You're right, sorry." This was probably the first time she had said anything remotely rude to one of them since they had made up but the way it was taken made her feel they were definitely all over the weirdness that they had been feeling right after she became the God of Lights choice for the next Demigod.

Going towards the front of the caravan where she was sure she would find the Temple Head she saw most of the people were already gathered there and had already formed a circle around the Temple Head. Pushing her way through the crowd Tiff went and stood beside the Temple Head.

If someone who didn't understand what was about to happen saw this scene they would probably think the Temple Head was about to do some ritual or something but in all reality the Temple Head had no part in what was about to happen because she couldn't use Holy Magic which was a requirement for unsealing a Holy Weapon like the dagger.

Holding the weapon up into the air so everyone would be able to have a good look at it while the unsealing process took place Tiff started to channel not only the Holy mana she had gathered over the past few weeks but hers as well into the dagger until she saw a golden light start to leak from the weapon into her hands.

After a few seconds of this it stopped and Tiff saw a window open that held the name of the new skill she had acquired from the dagger. [New Temporary Skill: Purified Soul] It had actually been quite a while since she had gotten a new skill so she quickly opened it to read its effects even though the Temple had already told her what it was a long time ago so she would be ready once she got her hands on the dagger.

Purified Soul (L) Lv.1

Hides one's killing intent and makes your attacks undetectable.

This was a funny skill because it was quite rare to see something like killing intent which most people wouldn't even consider real described in a skills effects but as someone who knew a bit about the types of effects perception had once it got over 100 this skill was perfect to be used on something like the Unholy Giants they had been trained to fight against.

It was well known that most of the giants had a few stats in the 300's while it was rumored the oldest and double that. She wasn't exactly sure if she believed that but either way stats like that dwarfed her own and being undetectable would help in assassinating those monsters.

...

Lake was standing near Dawn so instead of waiting to ask about what happened till he got the chance to talk to the Temple Head he turned to and asked. "What was that?"

"You mean the light that came out of the weapon?" Lake had really been asking about all of it but the light was probably the most important part so he just nodded. "Do you know anything about Elemental Metals or Mana Vessels?"

Lake knew vaguely about both of those things so he nodded again even though he would have liked to let Dawn tell him in detail about both of those things in case he got new information because he didn't think that they had a lot of time to talk about this before getting back into the carts. "So Mana is part of your body akin to blood and Elemental Metals are solid mana and therefore kind of like a piece of the gods body which gives it interesting properties that are more like something a living being could have. What you just saw was like Tiff bonding herself to the weapon and gaining the skill it had, it's a similar thing to filling a mana vessel but more complicated and rare."

Lake felt like this was a bad explanation that leapt over a lot of details he needed but instead of asking he just made a note that he needed to find a book about this and read it. Almost everyone had already started to walk towards the carts and he didn't plan on wasting time while they were being chased.
