Transmigrated Into the World of Magic and Swords-Chapter 47: Abode

Ren and Liam were currently looking for 2-star and 3-star magical beasts. They left the cave right after breakfast because they wanted to hunt as many magical beasts as possible.

"Ren, look! There is an altar over there. Let’s check it!" Liam said as he pointed his right index finger at the altar on his left side.

"Altar?" Ren approached the altar as he checked it carefully.

’This altar is still in a good condition. Is it still usable? But for what?’

The altar was quite big, with six stone pillars surrounding it.

Each pillar had a different pattern, as if their functions were different from each other.

"This altar is still in good condition. Is there anyone still using this altar?" countless questions popped up in Liam’s mind as he checked one of the pillars.

’It has a beautiful pattern too.’

The white pillar looked so beautiful in his eyes.

’Oh! There are some words there, but what do these words mean?’

He had never seen such writing before, so he could not read and understand it.

As Ren and Liam were checking the altar, a 3-star Bear approached them slowly.

"It should be around here." The bear mused.

"Hmm?" Ren stopped checking the altar when he sensed the presence of the bear.

"A magical beast is approaching us, Ren." Liam also stopped checking the altar.

"It’s a 3-star bear. Let me handle it." Ren retrieved his Aether weapon from his space ring and changed it into a sword.

"Alright. I will leave it to you." Liam knew how powerful 3-star magical beasts were, so he let Ren deal with it because he was still at the Elite rank.

"What a coincidence! It seems like heaven loves me because heaven sends you to this place when I’m hungry." The bear stood on its hind legs as if it were human, like Ren and Liam.

Ren did not say anything because he was not in the mood to talk to a magical beast.

’I will test the Mountain Crushing Slash skill now.’

Without waiting for another second, Ren swung his sword, sending a wave of energy toward the bear.

The bear was ready to dodge Ren’s attack.

But when Ren’s slash was halfway to the bear, it was absorbed by the stone pillars.

Ren and Liam were stunned and instantly shifted their gaze to the pillars.

’It was absorbed by the pillars?’

They knew the altar was still in good condition, but they did not expect the pillars to be able to absorb energy.

Like Ren and Liam, the bear was also stunned.

’I have a bad feeling about this.’

Animal instincts were better than human instincts because they were born with good instincts to help them survive the harsh world, so the 3-star bear ran away when he sensed something was not right.

"What?! Why did that bear suddenly run away?" Liam said in surprise.

The same question also popped up in Ren’s mind because his instinct was not as good as the bear’s.

As Ren and Liam were looking at the bear, the pillars gleamed one by one, creating a black hole in the middle of the altar.

Stones, trees, bushes, and ground; the blackhole sucked everything around the altar, including Ren and Liam.

Ren and Liam were late in reacting, so they failed to run away from that place, causing them to be sucked into the black hole.

----

Unknown Place, Forest.

Ren and Liam were unconscious on the ground.

His sword was stuck in the ground near them.

After passing out for a few minutes, Ren finally regained consciousness.

"Ouch! My head hurts." Ren sat up and pressed his right palm against his head.

’Hmm? Where are we?’

His eyes swept across the area as he took in his surroundings.

’We are still in the forest, but it seems like this is not Framingburns forest.’

He finally knew that the blackhole teleported them to an unknown place.

"Hey, Liam, wake up." Ren woke Liam up by tapping his shoulders.

"Ouch!" Liam also felt a headache after waking up. "Where are we, Ren?"

"I don’t know," Ren told Liam that the black hole had teleported them to an unknown place. "Let’s explore this forest first. Maybe we will know where we are now."

"Alright." Liam agreed instantly.

Ren took his sword and stored it in his space ring.

To their surprise, they saw many awakeners several hundred meters from them.

"Ren, look! There are many awakeners in that place. It seems like there is treasure inside that abode." Liam said excitingly.

The abode was located in a barren plain, and its entrance was at the opening of the valley.

"Let’s go and check it." Liam approached the abode with a happy smile on his face.

He went to the forest to find a treasure or something that could help him get stronger, so his heart throbbed with happiness when he saw the crowd in front of the abode because, normally, it was a sign that a treasure was hidden in that place.

Ren followed Liam from behind.

Like Liam, he was also happy. freёnovelkiss.com

He was poor, so treasure could help him get rich instantly.

But unlike Liam, he did not smile happily.

He needed to maintain his image as a candidate to be the Ruler, so he behaved normally as if he was not interested in the treasure.

"It’s weird. I live in this area, but it’s my first time seeing this abode."

"You are right. I crossed this area three times before, but there was no abode at that time."

"Is this a trap deliberately set by someone to kill the awakeners who dare to enter it?"

"Should we leave now?"

"Hey, are you sure you want to leave this place? There is treasure hidden in this place, you know? Are you really going to let the opportunity to get treasure slip away?"

"How do you know there is treasure in this abode?"

"I saw someone walking out with money earlier."

"Me too. I saw someone rushing out with five good weapons."

"I also heard that a mature man got many potions from this abode."

"Really? You are not lying right?"

"It’s up to you if you don’t want to believe it."

"Just leave this place if you don’t want to risk yourself."

"Then should we enter this abode too?"

"I will enter this abode. We will get nothing in this life if we are afraid of danger."

"You are right. The more dangerous the place is, the better the treasure. Maybe we can get skill or spell books in this abode later."

"Hey, I have a good idea. How about we form a group? With this, our survival rate will be higher."

"I agree."

"Me too."

"Me three."

"Me four."

Most awakeners formed groups, and most of them were composed of around six awakeners.

Of course, they would not let their guard down because their member group could stab them in the back.

Liam, who heard their conversation, was getting more excited. "Ren, let’s enter this abode too. Maybe we will get treasure too."

"Sure." Ren agreed instantly.

Ren and Liam did not form a group because it was too risky to make a group with unknown people.

’I hope I can get treasure later.’

Ren and Liam said in their minds.
