Chapter 266: Mysterious Liquid

The change in Noah's behavior was immediate. At first his creatures were surprised by the turn of events. One moment Noah was tending to them, and the next he suddenly knelt on the ground, eyeing the chest in front of him as if they no longer existed. 

Ailetta, Arachne and Fenrir were the only ones who weren't surprised. Arachne and Fenrir could never fully understand Noah's fascination with chests, but they at least came to terms with Noah's obsession over them. They made no attempt to bother him while he was in the midst of his ritual. To them, it was simply part of who Noah was now.

But the little zombie was different. She couldn't resist, her curiosity bubbling over as she toddled towards the chest. Her small hands reached out eagerly, hoping this time would be the time she could finally open it herself. "The box! I can open it this time, right?" she chirped.
