Initially, Jared wanted to forcibly open the coffin, but was afraid of damaging whatever was inside. The runes on that coffin were quite unusual. They weren’t the typical glyphs of array runes. Instead, they looked like seal runes.
Flaxseed was highly skilled in dealing with those seal runes, which was why Jared sought out for advice.
“What the heck? You’re such a jinx. Why have you brought a coffin here?!” Upon seeing the situation, Flaxseed instantly furrowed his brow.
“Mr. Flaxseed, this coffin is a magical item…” Jared relayed the events at the ancient ruins to Flaxseed.
Upon hearing Jared’s words, Flaxseed was immediately intrigued. He then scrutinized the coffin, his eyes tracing the runes etched on its surface.
After giving It a thorough look, Flaxseed said, “Someone sealed the coffin, and it might not be out of fear that someone might open it, but rather fear of what might come out from within. These seal runes are meant to suppress whatever is inside the coffin.”
“Are you implying that there’s someone inside this coffin, Mr. Flaxseed?” Jared asked, somewhat taken aback.
“I’m merely speculating. Let’s open it and see!” Flaxseed said and gently placed his right hand on the coffin.
As began to chant, the runes on the coffin started to tremble.
Suddenly, they disintegrated on their own.
Upon witnessing that scene, Jared started to feel a bit anxious. At the same time, found himself holding his Dragonslayer Sword. If there were to be any danger lurking within the coffin, could take action immediately.
As the runes began to deconstruct, the coffin started to tremble.
Jared swiftly pulled Flaxseed back, and the two of them silently observed.
Before long, the coffin lid slowly creaked open, revealing a sliver of darkness. Following this, a hand, surprisingly pale, extended from within the coffin.
With the exposed palm, it was clear that there was a person inside.
Jared, clutching the Dragonslayer Sword, was prepared for battle. Flaxseed quickly drew out charm with his blood essence, ready to seal It at any moment.
Just as the two were tensely watching the coffin, ready to react at any moment, a sudden burst of black mist erupted from within Jared.
Two ancient samurai then emerged unexpectedly.
After the appearance of the two samurai, the ghastly pale hand suddenly halted in its movements. Following that, it swiftly retracted, carefully closing the lid of the coffin.
Jared was quite puzzled.
How did these two ancient samurai appear without being summoned?
Could it be because of this coffin?
Jared was left with no choice but to recall the two samurai back into his body. He then turned toward the coffin and said, “Come out. It’s safe now!”
Knowing that there was someone inside, thought could communicate with that person. However, even after Jared had spoken for quite a while, there was still no response from the coffin.
Jared subsequently made his way over, intending to pry open the coffin. However, despite several attempts, it seemed as if the coffin had been secured from the inside, making it impossible to open.
“F*ck! I refuse to believe this…” Jared hoisted the Dragonslayer Sword, intending to cleave open the coffin with a single strike.
“Brat, seal the coffin back up. If whatever’s inside comes out, you’ll be in deep trouble.” Suddenly, Vermilion Demon Lord began to speak within Jared’s consciousness field.
Jared paused before asked, “Mr. Vermilion, do you know what’s inside?”
“I‘m not sure, but what I do know is that you’re in for some bad luck if you open it,” Vermilion Demon Lord said.
Hearing that, Jared abandoned his idea of forcibly opening the coffin. He instructed Flaxseed to affix the charm, resealing it once more.
He then stowed the coffin back into his Storage Ring, deciding to wait until his strength was sufficient before dared to open it. Jared knew would have to be patient.
Once Jared realized that it was a person inside, not some kind of magical item or resource, his interest significantly waned.
Just as Jared had finished packing away the coffin, someone sought out.
“Mr. Chance, my Lady is calling you over!” the person said to Jared.
Jared was puzzled, unsure of why Nilou was seeking out.
When Jared arrived at the main hall, Nilou and Jemima were already there.
“My Lady, what brings you to seek me out?” Jared asked.
