Ember Hall Trial Part 11

Tyler slowly put down his mother and stood up.

"Zero, let's start the final trial. I am going to finish it and return home."

The rabbit let out a smile and snapped his finger. The next moment, he, Miao, and Rose disappeared. Tyler was a bit confused since he had no idea what the trial was.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

But, at this moment, he heard the sound. His eyes moved to the side as he saw the giant statues of the warriors moving. He found that two statues next to the person sitting on the chair were coming toward him.

"Shit! Is this a freaking final trial?" Tyler's eyes widened when he saw that. He clenched his sword with his left hand, not knowing how to face it. But, at this moment, he suddenly felt a strange motion in his shoulder.

He turned his head and saw the sapling on his shoulder. His eyes widened as he asked.

"You can enter the trial?"

The sapling nodded his head.

......

Outside the trial,

Miao and the rabbit were standing next to each other.

"That thing entered the trial. Aren't you going to stop it?" Miao asked.

"Do I look like an idiot to you? I don't even know what that thing is." The rabbit rolled his eyes and snorted.

"But, if it helped Tyler, wouldn't it be considered cheating, right?" Miao asked.

"Do you still remember when those three laws appeared?" The rabbit asked with a solemn expression.

"Of course, I do. That was the most horrible scene I have seen in my million years of life." Miao couldn't help but tremble. Even though he was the God of Destruction, he had no full control over the Destruction Law.

Laws were strong especially when they were controlled by the Universal Spirit. But even when they weren't controlled, they were very strong. So, it was surprising for Miao that four laws gathered in front of someone who was not a Universal Spirit.

"That young man is going to suffer. If the people cultivating Destruction Law see the mark on his forehead, they will definitely kill him. That mark represents the contract with the Universal Law."

"I am surprised that those three laws tried to hide it and lied to that thing. But then again, it was impossible to remove that mark unless it is done by Universal Spirit or the person who cast the mark." The rabbit spoke.

Miao was silent for a moment. He wasn't worried about Tyler. He was worried that the people will target his mother instead of him. Although most of them won't, some people will definitely be shameless to target his mother.

That's where the problem lies. As he said before, there is a seal around Tyler's heart that was cast by his mother's love. If that seal is broken, it would be ten times more terrifying than what he became.

Miao clenched his fist and thought.

'Should I place a mark on her and send her to that space? But, if I do that, even if Tyler agrees, it would take years before we can even find the key to open the door of that world and let the people come out.'

'And, he is like a rope dipped inside kerosine. As soon as someone released the spark, it will burn. So, if I take away the water, I won't be able to stop the rope from burning until it turns to ashes.'

"Hey, if you need someone to take care of her, why not hire the Samurai? Loyal to his job, extremely strong, and lives like a normal person." The rabbit sensed his worries and immediately understood his worries as well. So, he didn't hesitate to suggest him.

Miao rolled his eyes and said.

"That would cost him One Million Energy Crystals a month. Even if he reaches the Golden Rank which is the highest rank, it won't be enough."

"But, what if you have a mine that can produce over One Million Energy Crystals a month?" The rabbit asked.

Hearing his words, Miao's eyes widened.

"Wait, one of the rewards from the fifth trial includes the High-Level Energy Crystal Mine."

"Exactly, but there is one problem." The rabbit nodded and continued "His lifespan has decreased by a lot. He only has a lifespan of three months. Even if he reaches the Foundation Establishment Realm in just three months, it would only increase his lifespan by ten years."

"But, there is a Holy Water of World Tree among the rewards of the fifth trial. Which means he needs to make a choice. His life or his mother's protection."

When Miao heard that, his fist loosened.

"He won't hesitate to choose the Energy Crystal Mines. Besides, as you said, if he can increase his cultivation to the Foundation Establishment Realm, his lifespan will increase by ten years."

"That means as long as he can continue, his lifespan will keep on increasing. Currently, he understands his situation more than us. It is impossible for him not to make any enemies unless he stays in his house and never leaves."

"That is naturally impossible. So, the only thing that he is worried about is his mother. That's why he won't think twice before choosing the mine if we tell him this option."

Hearing his words, the rabbit's eyes sparkled as he asked.

"Then, why don't we keep our mouths shut?"

"No, we are going to tell him." Miao's eyes narrowed as he clenched his fist.

"She mustn't die."

.........….

During the trial,

Bang!

The leg of the statue moved toward Tyler. He didn't hesitate to dodge the attack and the leg struck the ground. The ground shook and Tyler fell on the ground.

At this moment, another statue slashes the sword toward Tyler. Seeing this, Tyler gritted his teeth. This strike wasn't something he could block with ease. But, he can't dodge it either.

He quickly tried to hold his sword but it had already fallen away. He raised his arms, only to realize that one of his arms was absent.

'Damn it!'

Tyler closed his eyes as he waited.

Bang!

The sword struck his arms but it didn't push him down. When Tyler realized that his left hand wasn't pushed down, he opened his eyes and saw the wooden arm below his left arm, blocking the sword.

Tyler's eyes widened. He was planning on using the sapling to create an arm but he never expected the sapling to do this on his own.

At this moment, his brain suddenly received a strange voice.

"Hello Master"

When he heard that, Tyler's eyes widened even more. He couldn't believe what just happened.

'I am not hearing his voice. I am understanding the meaning.'
