Chapter 80: Better place?

"That..." 

The most eye-catching Artifact was in the middle of the hall. It was a majestic staff that was floating in mid-air. The staff was pitch black in color and had a beautiful gem attached to it that seemed to be filled with the infinite power of darkness. 

The staff was also surrounded by shields of glass from all sides that not only protected the staff from being touched by someone but it also made sure that no one could be affected by the dark aura of the staff. The staff's dark aura was restricted inside the glass chamber. 

It was the Ancestral Staff of Darkness! The Staff that Lira was after. Gabriel was extremely close to the staff, but he couldn't take it. It wasn't the time. If he tried now, he knew he was going to be caught.
