BXBX NOVEL Chapter 403 King Jun
Shin quickly scanned the meat he was given. After all, he was suspicious that there was poison mixed in the meat.
And the result was quite surprising.
[Ding]
[Cooked meat]
[Meat of three-eyed bear.]
[Level: 167]
Shin gasped as he looked at the meat. If it was alive he wouldn\'t be able to see the level.
Looking at the tender-looking meant shin quickly bit it.
\'Damn it.\' Shin cursed as he tried to chew the meat and as he did, he felt as if he was chewing through an indestructible rubber.
Shin felt as if he was in one of those \'Break it for 1000 dollars shows\' Where one would be given an indestructible rubber toy to break.
Shin quickly lifted his head to see how others were eating it and was shocked to see...
"Hmmm, this meat is very tender and juicy"
Jun said as he elegantly used a fork and knife to cut through the meat and eat it.
And as soon as he was swallowing the meat, it was turning into red color energy which was getting absorbed by his body.
Shin\'s eyes twitched as he swallowed the meat. And then quickly swallowed the other four pieces of the meat on the plate.
"You are a quick eater." It looked as if shin wanted to say something but suddenly his eyes widened.
He felt tremendous energy suddenly erupting from his body.
\'What is this? Is it the energy from the meat!\' Shin quickly closed his eyes. It took him ten minutes to balance the energy within his body.
When he opened his eyes he was surprised to see Jun staring at him.
Other skeletons were long gone except Jun. And looking at him seriousness flashed in shin\'s eyes.
"I\'m here... For a purpose."
"I know"
"You do?"
"Yes, I know. Most of the people here always come for a purpose. And according to my experience, you\'re here for..."
"" The gem of lie ""
"So are you going to kill me?" Shin didn\'t sense any hostility yet, but to be safe he activated his mana and turned into flame wolf emperor mode.
"No need to be warry little one. I will be glad if you can take the gem of lie."
"???" Shin was confused by what Jun was saying.
"If you will be then give me the gem of lie"
"Alright but tell me why do you want it?"
"Why? To kill a certain someone who\'s a skeleton just like you. He possesses the gem of truth and I believe to kill him I will require the power of the gem of lie."
"Ha-. Interesting tale. Is this, certainly someone a skeleton king?"
"Ya, you know him."
"Well ya. A long long time ago, when I was the king of a kingdom, which was very powerful. I wanted to become a supreme celestial, the true God, and to become that I first needed to achieve the title of celestial. And so I tried to convince some supreme celestial. But they disagreed. But as I was venturing, I found a supreme celestial. The God of blood. He said that he would bestow his blessing on our kingdom. In return, I had to find the gem of truth and lie, and how to activate them.
Of course, I agreed to those conditions in a heartbeat, but I never knew that condition would become the reason for our greatest suffering.
***********
"My lord, you have returned from your adventure."
"Yes, John." King Jun, one of the mightiest humans in history, who reached the level of 327. He had a muscular body with many scars on it. He had black hair and black eyes.
Opposite to him was his greatest and wisest minister, John. He had a skinny body, with silver hair and green eyes.
"Call, Ruok."
"As you wish my lord," John said as he walked away. After thirty minutes Ruok, a man with a muscular but lean body entered. He had deep blue hair and beautiful crystal blue eyes.
"My lord. You summoned me."
"Ruok, I have an important mission for you."
"Give me the order my lord."
"You have to find a very specific item. I have found it rough location. You have to find it there. If you don\'t find it, say me."
"As you wish my lord." Ruok stood up and then walked away. Little did Jun know that this would be the worst decision of his life.
[2 months later]
King Jun was surprised. Because Ruok brought both the gems and gave them to him.
Upon asking what all happened, Ruok replied. "I faced two guardians. But killed them with an artifact." Even though king Jun wanted to know what this artifact was he didn\'t ask. If it was any other king instead of Jun they would definitely demand to submit the artifact but king Jun wasn\'t like other kings. If he was then he would have never come this far
\'Now I should focus on the work I have.\'.
As soon as Ruok went away, he summoned the best mages of the kingdom. Each one of them was elite and was above the level:100, and some were close to reaching level: 200. Each one of them could destroy a minor kingdom easily on their own.
"I have summoned you all so that you can find out how to use these two heaven artifacts.
And so their research with the artifacts began. And with the help of ancient texts and the mages... They had a breakthrough.
"We need to sacrifice 1000 souls to activate the gem of truth. And on other hand, it\'s 1000 sacrifices itself for the gem of lie, but we have to do something more too. Well, sadly we still have to find what\'s that something extra."
As the mages were discussing with each other, suddenly...
Boom!
A blast occurred!
And suddenly king Jun sensed a slash heading toward his way
He quickly activated a mana barrier successfully blocking the strike. But the next movement, a force field spread.
