Earth's Greatest Magus
chapter-1547

Even though at first glance there seemed to be nothing happening, quite a complicated synergy was taking place between the three; Emery's intent coupled with Morgana's enhanced power of Khaos assisted the former's other soul to open the door from the inside.

It did not literally open up, but as soon as the rune etched on the stone wall was glowing, Emery could sense the space beyond the wall—his spatial space.

As expected, the inside of the space was in chaos. Despite that, Emery quickly used his spirit reading and pulled out everything he could reach. One by one, Emery's belongings appeared in front of the two of them.

First, he took out his favorite weapon, the Tier 5 longsword [Savage Sword]. After that, to his surprise, he managed to grab a second sword, another Tier 5 longsword that belonged to Silva, the Gentle Sword.

Emery's memory of this pair of swords was still a little unclear, especially how Silva's sword came to be in his spatial space. Pondering for a moment, he must have grabbed it when Silva was incapacitated during their mission on the elf planet.

He then found two daggers, which he quickly brought out: the invaluable Tier 6 [Shadow Bane] and his old Tier 3 [Moon Dagger]. Looking at the latter, he could feel a sense of nostalgia rushing back to him.

The most eye-catching item in Emery's inventory was the elven spaceship [Revenant]. Unfortunately, the size made it difficult to manage, but it was also still in a damaged state due to its crash at the academy, hence he left that one inside.

Unsure if he would be able to get another chance like this, Emery resolutely decided to clean up the spatial space, leaving nothing behind.

There was the precious [Celestial Essence]. Even though he only had 5 ounces left, it was without a doubt the top and most valuable item in his inventory.

Of course, there were other precious items such as the [Scroll of Awakening], the [Orc Breeding Manual], the [Emblem of Zodiac] given by the Zodiac King, the Silver Plate from certain auction houses, as well as the metallic card containing his identity.

When all the important miscellaneous items were taken out, Emery proceeded with the massive stash of various kinds of potions he had kept inside his spatial space. There were also the hundreds of kinds of apothecary ingredients, all quickly taken out and transferred to his current storage ring instead.

Last but not least, the yellow pouch contained around five hundred thousand spirit stones plus the two precious [spirit gems] he had looted from the elves.

Emery basically cleared his spatial space.

The only thing he left behind was the other half of his soul, which was what he needed the most. Unfortunately, it was the only one he couldn't take because it was what opened up the space itself.

However, he felt very close to his other half, just like standing in front of another. He believed there was a way to connect with each other. Maybe when his Magus Soul recovered fully he would. If not, Emery could always find his way back to Earth to retrieve it.

There was the matter of his identity being known; he just needed to be sure if the benefit would be worth the risk.

After retrieving all the items in Emery's spatial space, the two returned to the land-like floating rock and to the circular hall.

He wished to inquire further about the said champions of Khaos, and it was at this moment that he suddenly sensed energy fluctuating on some of the rocks around them.

"Someone else is entering this place!"

Emery was shocked to realize that this must be what Killgragah said about the situation being tricky with their presence here.

It only took a second before Emery sensed three figures coming out of three different runic stones, which made both of them quickly alert.

One was at grand magus level, another at peak full moon magus level, and the last one was a crescent moon. Both of them were wearing similar clothing, with dark robes covering part of their faces. Even so, Emery could still quickly tell what they were.

"Dark elves!"

Knowing that the two of them were at a disadvantage in fighting such a group, Emery was ready to run away. Morgana also had the same thought. But at this moment, Killgragah's voice entered their minds and stopped them in their tracks.

"Don't worry. Khaos doesn't allow fighting in this place. Those who violate this rule will be punished."

That was certainly a relief, but Emery still kept his guard up because he couldn't just believe it.

The three of them flew into the circular hall where Emery and Morgana were. As soon as they saw the two of them, the Grand Magus, at the front of the group, turned his gaze to Emery with an excited look in his eyes as he exclaimed.

"Finally! New champions!"

Emery was quite surprised when he saw the curious glances the group was giving. Still, he decided to remain silent and wait for them to reveal their intentions first.

The Grand Magus approached and studied both Emery and Morgana closely. It appears what Killgragahs said was true; the dark elves did not show any intent to fight at all.

Moments later, he said, "You... from which Khaos space waypoints did you two come?" he said while looking towards the four dark rune stones and added.

"You two are half-bloods... Are you her pupils?"

'Her?' Not knowing what the other party talked about, Emery maintained his silence. But then the man spoke again, answering his own question. "No, no… That's not quite right. She's a bat, while you two... are wolves, aren't you?"

Based on his words, Emery quickly concluded that the person the dark elf was referring to must be Zenonia. Since she also possessed the power of Khaos and was a Grand Magus, she must know about this Khaos Domain as well.

Trying to hide his true identity, which was wanted by the elves, Emery finally said, "You're right. I am Master Zenonia's pupil."

It was actually not a lie; Emery was in fact an acolyte of the darkness institute, hence Zenonia's pupil.

Upon hearing that, the dark elf magus stared at Emery with interest as he said, "As far as I know, Zenonia has never shared her Khaos space with any of her pupils before... You must have accidentally found it, didn't you?" With an intimidating smile, he said, "You should tell me now where it is!"

Emery heaved a sigh; things had just become much more complicated.
