From Human to Skeleton: Revived with Infinite System Crystals

Chapter 200: A Caves Distance



King Griswald listened intently, weighing her words carefully. The idea of proceeding without Ty was a risk, but Nana's courage and commitment to grow stronger were compelling. He then shifted the conversation back to Lady Amaris. "This person related to Erebos, will she be coming back to this spot, or did you arrange a meeting place?"

Nana shook her head. "Neither. She just stated she would find me. I believe she's very talented, so when she wants to find me and is able to, she will," she explained, exuding trust in Lady Amaris's abilities. She then handed King Griswald three green pills. "She gave me these to help heal the injured.

Please give one to Todd, and I'll give one to anyone else who needs it."

Nana's determination was clear as she clenched her fist, her wounds now almost fully healed. "Afterwards, I think it's best we regroup and finish our pathway toward the Cave. We have no idea what kind of trials or tribulations Ty could be going through, but at the very least, we can take care of business here until he finds a way back," she stated firmly, her resolve unwavering.

King Griswald, his gaze shifting towards the rising sun, stroked his beard thoughtfully. "I suppose that is true. This path would have unfolded whether you and your friends showed up or not. We would have still planned to attack the caves," he mused. "This world will never know true peace until every monster is forever eradicated. And for that, the sealed monsters have to be killed."

Nana, agreeing with the King's sentiments, requested a brief respite. "I need a few minutes to meditate, and then I'll meet up with you and the others," she said, seeking a moment of tranquility to gather her thoughts and strength.

As Nana retreated to meditate, the gravity of their task lay before them. King Griswald's words echoed the larger mission at hand - a quest for peace that required confronting and eradicating the monsters that threatened their world.

Nana's decision to meditate reflected her understanding that mental and spiritual preparedness were as crucial as physical strength in the battles ahead.

In these few moments of solitude, Nana would fortify herself for the challenges that lay ahead, ready to join King Griswald and the others in their quest to secure peace for their world.

Nana, immersed in deep thought while sitting on the soft soil, was abruptly startled by a giant blue beam of light hurtling toward her. She looked up, shielding her eyes with her hand, uncertain of what was unfolding before her.

Elsewhere, King Griswald, having attended to everyone's needs, called out to Nana. "Hey, Nanako, when you're ready, we will meet you back on the main road." His voice carried a note of sobriety as he delivered some grave news. "I'm afraid my Purple Knight is dead. The wounds he received were too much to recover from," he announced solemnly.

His expression hardened with resolve and anger. "Erebos has made an enemy of me today, and I will see to it that he pays for the damage he has done to us all." The loss of the Purple Knight was not just a personal tragedy for the King but also a symbol of the threat Erebos posed to their world.

Nana watched as King Griswald and his six men rode off on their horses, returning to their original path. Her attention, however, was quickly drawn back to the peculiar blue box that had fallen from the sky, that landed right in front of her. The box, with its blue trimmings and predominantly black design, was unlike anything she had seen before.

With a mix of curiosity and confusion, she picked up the box, carefully dusting off the dirt that had clung to its surface. As she cleaned it, the box suddenly came to life, glowing softly and presenting her with an unexpected directive: "Choose a password by turning the cube."

Intrigued, Nana began to twist the cube in various directions, trying to decipher its mechanism. After several attempts, the cube briefly flashed red, indicating a locked password, before emitting a blue light that projected towards her head.

Nana's mind was momentarily overwhelmed by the flood of information regarding the exact pattern she had created on the cube, but just as quickly, the memory was erased, leaving her momentarily disoriented.

"This memory will only trigger once you attempt to use the cube, for the protection against theft," the box chimed in an almost ethereal tone, explaining its security feature.

As she processed this information, the cube began to hum softly, indicating some form of activation. Then, to Nana's surprise, a familiar voice emanated from the device. It was the Demon King.

"Lady Nanako, I assume that would be you on the other end. I have eyes in many places, but my time has grown short to actively be viewing through those eyes," the voice said, its tone suggesting a mix of weariness and authority.

The Demon King's inquiry about Ty's situation caught Nana slightly off guard. "I assume you are aware of Ty's situation, to some extent?" he asked.

Nana, absorbing the Demon King's instructions, felt the weight of responsibility on her shoulders. "Yes, Sir. Erebos sent Ty off somewhere until he stated he had a meeting with you. What do you need me to do?" she asked, ready to take action.

The Demon King's response was clear and directive. "You and Todd are to see to the eradication of the three Curses of that world and return their souls to me. They will be an important piece in finding Ty. Also, you will be receiving some backup in about a month's time, so do hold out if things get tough and get stronger whenever possible," he instructed.

"The coming times will require great power, one I am not sure all my generals and daughters combined will be able to handle."

Before Nana could respond, the cube abruptly shut off, its light turning bright red before shrinking down to the size of a pebble. She took a deep breath, trying to process the enormity of her task and the complexity of the situation.

"Nothing can ever just be simple, huh," she muttered to herself, a mix of determination and resignation in her voice.

"Oh, well, if I only get stronger, then I can make anything simple," she resolved, giving herself a light slap on the face to bolster her spirits. With renewed resolve, she walked back towards Todd, who was still lying on his back some 60 feet away, staring contemplatively at the sky.
