"How should we get away?" Asher hurriedly questioned.
People's cries could already be heard from the outskirts, adding more pressure on his shoulder.
'I shouldn't have trusted that B*stard,' Asher thought in anger.
He had a large circle of friends, and most of them owed him favors.
One of his 'friends' messaged him about the event and told him about a special treasure that would be auctioned off after executing the Wrath FiendKing.
It's an Ancient Relic discovered by Wrath Fiendking.
The higher-ups deemed it a useless toy, so they decided to auction it off.
After all, it came from a Transcendent Stage being, so many profligate sons will not dismiss it as useless.
They may even see it as an opportunity to become a Heaven-defying genius and rise above all others.
' I need to get that item. However...my life is more important '
Asher has been interested in the Ancient Ruins and civilization of the Forgotten Era since he was a child.
Even runes used by Mind practitioners were discovered in ancient remains.
How fascinating that Ancient Civilization must be to create something like Runes!?
As a result of his great luck, Asher has unintentionally entered many Hidden Ancient ruins and can be considered an experienced Archeologist and Tomb raider.
That item, which the higher-ups of the Occult council thought was useless, was actually one of the keys to entering a special Ancient ruin.
He already had 11 keys, and that was the final one required to enter it.
After all, he wouldn't have come here for nothing, would he? He has no enmity toward Wrath FiendKing, so why would he leave the safe university to come to this dangerous city!?
"I can think about it later..." muttered Asher.
Asher firmly believed in his luck. He was certain that even if the sky collapsed in some way, he would survive in the end.
However, His pupils dilated when he saw Ian taking out a Blue cube from his pocket.
' That's... a Tesseract!? '
Asher was overcome with surprise.
Even Ian is unaware of the value of this onetime-use disposable cube.
Osiris gave it to him after imparting the inheritance to him, and he even left some instructions on how to use it properly.
Since Osiris gave it to him without any hesitation, Ian simply dismissed it as a common space artifact.
A normal Space treasure, on the other hand, would only teleport a person a few kilometers away in any direction.
There would be a lot of Runes involved in the process of opening a Space-time tunnel for precise and long-distance teleportation.
This can be considered common knowledge in the central realm... But this common knowledge was thrashed aside by a single existence.
The Transverser of Space and Overseer of Humanity's Haven - Osiris Griffin.
In the central realm, this is considered common knowledge... However, this common knowledge was swept aside by a single existence.
Osiris Griffin, the Transverser of Space and Overseer of Humanity's Haven.
'That's Lord Osiris's tesseract...then he must be related to Lord Osiris!' Asher's confusion about Ian's identity was completely resolved.
When Asher and Rue traveled to America last month to run away from secrecy families' feuds, they met Aeric.
There were many Local Outer realm factions after them at the time due to some coincidences and mishaps.
Osiris was the one who saved them and took them to Novaetas University.
Asher saw a similar Tesseract in Osiris's hand when he was being teleported to the university.
" Everyone get ready to jump inside...Asher do we have to take those body guards with us? " questioned Ian.
To this question, Asher simply took a small wooden doll from his pocket and snapped it in half.
All the bodyguards dissipated as if they never existed there in the first place.
Ian was taken aback by this sight.
" Is that an Illusion treasure? a one-time disposable treasure!?" Asked Ian.
Hearing this question, Asher pointer towards the Cube in Ian's hand. " You aren't the only one who had a one-time use legendary treasure." Said Asher.
This illusion treasure is something he found in Ancient Ruins by accident.
"Let's go," Ian said.
Asher and Aeric both jumped without hesitation.
Ian wasn't in a rush, so he turned around to look at the ceiling.
He can feel someone staring at him once more.
No...it's not him but- " Something is really wrong, this isn't how the original plot played out... something changed,"
He shook his head and sighed.
Whatever it is, he could take care of it later, his only regret is leaving behind the treasures he ' stole' in the helicopter.
Ian also jumped into the portal.
soon traces of the portal also disappeared.

" I think someone might be plotting against me," said Asher.
Currently, both Asher and Aeric were sitting on the sofa.
One was eating a pizza while the other was fiddling with his phone.
Ian went back to his dorm room long ago.
A while ago, Asher got information about how the Copenhagen Underground city was destroyed and the damage to many households in the above city due to destroyed gas pipelines.
After telling Aeric about how he got the information about this Execution and the Treasure that was going to be Auctioned at the Trade center.
He even told Aeric the information about the Special Ancient Ruins that need 12 keys to enter them.
After a period of silence, Aeric was the first to open his mouth.
" Who was the one that messaged you? "
Asher knew that just explaining wasn't enough.
He unlocked his phone and opened a document before throwing it towards Aeric.
Aeric read it for a moment before his eyes dimmed and regained their clarity.
" This guy must be a pawn, he didn't have any prominent background - just an illegal son of a low-level Secrecy family. nor did he have any talent...If I am not wrong someone just used him to try to kill you,"
Aeric gave a bit of pause before continuing.
" Whoever it is, they knew all of your moves...They even knew about the Special Ancient Realm you found, you shouldn't underestimate them...it's better to stay in the university and concentrate on becoming stronger. "
Asher agreed with his opinion but thought about something else.
" Should I tell Ian about this? He has Lord Osiris as his bac- "
Aeric stopped him from speaking further.
"Don't talk any further, there are Transcendents in this university...I know what you wanted to say but there is no need to tell him anything... I have a feeling that he is also up to something, "
Aeric continued.
" Of course, he wouldn't harm us. He even seemed a bit friendly towards us but we should never be careless...After all, there are many people after you."
Asher chuckled when he heard that.
" Well, that's true...By the way, Rue just texted me, he is coming back by tomorrow, "
Aeric's expression didn't change.
" Did he find anyone suspicous monitoring him? " Asked Aeric.
Asher shook his head.
"No, there were none. and... I doubt anyone can kill him "
Aeric nodded and returned to his lab after finishing the pizza.
