Dungeon Of Pride, Laplace

Chapter 925- Corrupted Weapons (2)

It was not just Berisol, the intensity could be seen shared by all the orcs even the lowest ranking one. That was how high a position Simon held in their hearts.

And why would he not, revenge against the ogres after their previous humiliating defeat in the forest was one of their lifelong dreams and ambition.

Now that it has been fulfilled, the orcs seemed to have grown even more fond and reverend of Simon. Had it not been for him, their whole clan would have been exterminated that day or forced to live a humiliating life under the subjugation of the ogres.

For them, he was not only their saviour, but also their avenger.

"Raise your heads" On Simon's order, the orcs picked themselves up. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I hope you all have been doing well"...

"It's all thanks to lord Simon. Without you we would have never experienced such glory" Berisol thanked bowing his head deeply.

"Enough, I did what I had to. Besides, I am not being partial here. The black ogre clan has much potential. As such, I am planning to have them serve under me in the future".

It was as Simon said, although he helped the orcs to take revenge on the black ogre clan, he was only using a borrowed knife to cull their numbers.

From the beginning, he had no intention of favouring one clan. He wanted to bring all the various clans inside the forest under his rule. And to do that, he started with the Orc clan.

"Even then, we are eternally grateful" Berisol spoke.

For them avenging their honor was more important than exterminating the black ogre clan.

Unlike the other items that were neatly placed on shelves or within containers, these objects were held within a large, reinforced containment field. It was done so as to prevent their malevolent energies from leaking out.

"So these are the items huh" His crimson eyes landed on the many armors and weapons placed inside the seal as he carefully studied them. Even with just a glance anyone could tell that the items here were unusual, they had that kind of presence about them.

"Hmm, this energy... though it's different it does bore some resemblance"

There was a slight thrum of strange energy that felt disturbingly similar to the energy he was familiar with.

Simon moved closer to one of the pedestals and commanded "Lower the containment on this one, I need to examine it up close."

At his words, Annette hurriedly cautioned "Master please be careful. These weapons, they have the ability to corrupt one's mind".

Simon nodded and headed in. Even without Annette's caution, he knew not to underestimate this unknown energy and besides, if it was what he thought it was, he did not need to fear it.

On his command, the warden Berisol pulled the lever and a small gap appeared in one of the seals. Using this slight gap, Simon stepped inside.

At that moment, all that energy that was contained and sealed off within this formation, came rushing at him like a wave trying to capsize a boat.

"?" His hands moved and Simon prepared an item to defend himself when he stopped in his tracks.

The wave appeared and swept him over.

"Master!!" Seeing his actions, Annette and the others immediately tried to rush in but were stopped by the gesture of their master who told them not to come in.

Simon turned his attention back on the items placed inside the containment. The level of energy here was enough to casue some low level beings to collapse instantly or coorode their mind.
