Chapter 19 : Ancient Blood Mage (2)
Ragna's inventory suddenly glowed in a blood red light!
He was startled for a moment before trying to find where the source of the light came from. As expected, it was the 1st Sentinel's Blood Essence. It glowed radiantly as if it was feeling very excited.
Ragna held the Blood Essence with his hand. Suddenly, it dispersed into blood-colored radiance which quickly being absorbed by the gloves he wore. The Blood Essence merged into the Blood Gloves!
He stared at the gloves, wide-eyed. He never expected that the Sentinel's essence purpose wasn't to be absorbed by him, it was for his Gloves!
The Gloves started to shine. Even though the light was dim, it was still far better than the dull one before. He also felt that the line inscribed on its surface starting to be activated.

Ragna's jaw dropped when he saw the screen. This Blood Gloves turned out to be exactly what he expected, a godly weapon!
Ragna never forgot to browse for the information and things happened outside. Obviously, he knew everything regarding equipment and their stats.
Currently, the average competitive level was at the late 20s, with the experts currently at early 30s. Their weapon's attack was ranging from 60-80. His weapon could be considered top grade just by pure stats only. Of course, besides attack, other weapon had many extra stats such as an increase in strength. Some of the top player's weapon even had a godly unique effect which defied even the common sense.
Ragna's Blood Glove had a unique effect too, but it was a bit bizarre.
Consuming another weapon..?
Ragna never found another weapon with the same effect. It was too unique and it could even be said as one of a kind.
He didn't really think about it too much, he was satisfied with his weapon's stats. Yes, it was slightly weaker than another top grade weapon, but his weapon had two type of attack! It could increase the power of his Magical and Physical Attack!
He grinned happily. It seemed that he didn't have to change his fighting style. He only needed to adjust it for a bit. He wondered whether if the Ancient Blood Master also walked the path of both types of attack or not.
Though, he still didn't have any idea on how to evolve the weapon further. Maybe he could find the clue when he acquired another legacy?
Also, if there was 1st Sentinel's essence, there must be 2nd, 3rd and so on!
His eyes glittered with greed. He couldn't even fathom how his strength would explode later when he acquired another legacy and blood essence.
But there was a more pressing matter!
How the hell did he suppose to do to find the exit!
He quickly searched all around the place. Then his eyes quickly caught the throne to be suspicious. After silently asking the Blood Master's permission, he sat there.

The ground suddenly trembled. The ceiling slowly fell apart. All of a sudden, a magical circle appeared around the chair. Ragna felt his vision go dark. The cave was crumbling. Fortunately, right before everything was destroyed, he was already transferred outside.
...
A dignified looking middle aged man was standing on a platform. He exuded a majestic air. It was as if every fiber of his being was exalted. He stood with the help of a wooden cane. The cane was inscribed with weird language and runic symbol.
He was staring at a huge screen. Inside the screen was a countless image depicting every event inside 'Maya'. He looked closely at every single screen as if he was unwilling to miss an important thing that was going to happen.
Suddenly, a black-clothed man appeared behind him. The black-clothed man kneeled on one knee while calling his name.
"Prabu.."
"What is the matter?" said the middle-aged man calmly
"The legacies have been passed"
"...." Prabu, the middle-aged man, went silent for a bit before asking "Even Kujana can't locate them?"
The black-clothed man nodded. Even though Prabu wasn't looking at him, he already knew what the answer was.
"Tell the overseer to look harder"
"As you wish, Prabu" Not even a sound could be heard before the black clothed man suddenly vanished.
"I admit that you are a strong opponent" muttered Prabu, while continue looking at the screen.
...
After arriving at the new place, Ragna opened his eyes. He saw that he was still inside a cave, but there was a light at the end of a passage in front of him. He was inwardly praying, hoping that he wouldn't get stranded into another weird place.
He walked slowly to the direction of the light, after a few steps, he found himself outside of the cave.
He was on top of a hill. It was actually right before the sunrise. The faint light from the sun was the source of the light he saw before. He felt very relieved, at least he was already outside.
He looked at the scenery before him, everything looked.. beautiful. There were birds chirping, countless trees and flowers were swaying as if they were being caressed by the winds, and obviously... the majestic sunrise.
Everything looked very real. He couldn't even fathom how the scenery in front of him could be generated by a computer. It was even better than the real world.
He was overwhelmed by emotion. After being locked up inside a cave for nearly a month, every place other than that would look a bit exaggerated.

"Alright!" Ragna was very satisfied with his current stats. Well, that was obvious since it was the strongest stats ever for level 1 character.
While watching the sunrise, he looked around for a bit. Then he could faintly see a town located not far away from him. It was his next destination!
Accompanied by his new motivation and power, he was finally ready to start his journey in Maya!
