Chapter 150 149: Opening The Wall [Pt1]



"Do you want me to destroy this wall? I think I can find a way to do so If I want to."

Honestly, Keith would be lying if he said that it was not an attractive offer. With the wall gone from his sight, he would be able to find the ticket much easier.

But something in Keith was telling him not to take the wall down. He had a feeling that there would be a door-like mechanism somewhere in this room that would help him walk to the other side.

"No, we should not destroy this wall. We still do not know what kind of monsters are roaming in this place. Let us avoid attracting as much attention as we can for now."

Keith warned Luna with a straight face before we went around checking for some kind of opening in the wall. He was sure that there must be some kind of button he could press.

Maybe it was his lucky stars that were aligned, or maybe it was the fact that Luna helped him out, but Keith was able to find the button to open the door. Now he only needed to press it and he would be able to cross this wall.

But the problem did not end there. The button was high up on the wall and Keith could not reach it himself. He had to count on Luna to help him out.

"Ugh, you seriously want me to jump up to that height and switch on that button? Man, you sure are lucky that my element is Earth. This should be a piece of cake for me."

Luna activated her magic as soon as she finished speaking. And as soon as her magic hit the environment, the ground shook and made Luna lose her balance and concentration.

Her magic fizzled away as soon as her concentration was broken. Luna was as surprised as Keith felt. 

The place had reacted to her magic.

"Fuck, there was some kind of trap preventing us from using magic. I do not think I will be able to use magic to climb that high now."

Luna sounded regretful as she snapped her fingers. Sparks flew out of her hand but they fizzled out as soon as they flew a little further from her hand. It left Keith and Luna pressed for options now.

Keith looked at the button, and he calculated things in his mind. If he allowed Luna to stand up on his shoulder, then she might be able to make her way to the button. Well, that was the only option he had-

"If only I had some kind of support I could step up on. I do not think our combined height would be enough for me to reach that high. And I do not have enough resources here to work my special ability."

Luna\'s frustration was clear in her voice. 

For someone unrelated to this whole hint, she sure was frustrated at her lack of ability to do anything. Watching her frustrated Keith as well but he did not say anything to Luna.

Somehow, her careless words had struck him with inspiration. And he suddenly had an idea that would allow Luna to access that switch.

"Luna, I have an ability that would allow you to reach the switch. But you will need to trust me and follow my orders. Do you think you will be able to do that?"

Keith asked Luna with a straight face. He pretended like he was putting all his eggs into Luna\'s basket but that was not the case here. He could go on and retrieve the ticket on his own as well if he wanted to.

But for now, he allowed Luna to think that she was the only one who could help him out. It was a tactic that helped others feel closest to you and Keith had learned it after working a few years in local businesses.

"I…are you sure you want me to help? If you use your magic, then his place would start shaking again. So, unless you have wind magic, I do not suggest flying up."

"Do not worry. What I am about to do is not magic, but an innate ability of mine. It should not trigger any traps in the vicinity."

Keith was confident about his verdict. From what he had learned so far, divine magic was different from normal magic. In most cases, it was not even treated as magic. 

So maybe if Keith used that, he would be able to press the button? He could allow Luna to step on his barrier while he concentrated on maintaining it. And then, Keith could slowly raise his barrier\'s height until Luna was in front of the button.

"Alright, if you are so sure. So, where do you need me to stand?"

Luna asked as she nervously moved around. Keith looked her up and down before deciding.

"Stay where you are and brace yourself. I do not have full control over my ability yet so the journey might be a little jerky now."

Keith warned before he raised his hand. An invisible force pushed Luna up slowly. She tried to move around but the fragile surface quaked under her feet. It felt as if the ground would split apart any second now.

"H-Hey, are you sure this is safe for me? It is quite a high fall until the button and I do not feel secure right now."

Luna complained as her landing shook. She lost her balance again and again but was somehow able to maintain her position.

"It should be alright. The surface feels a little fragile because I need to go slow. Now allow me to concentrate."

Keith\'s words snapped Luna\'s mouth shut. He had not meant to be mean to her, but his current skill demanded utter concentration from Keith\'s side. He could not afford to mess this up.

Not only Keith needed to go as slow as possible, but he also needed to channel a perfect amount of magic into the barrier to maintain its shape under pressure. There was a solid amount of pressure on Keith\'s shoulders right now.

"I am almost there. You can stop now since I can reach the button from here."

Luna assured Keith as she stretched her hand out. Keith could barely make out what Luna was doing, but it looked as if her fingers were stretching out toward the button.

Keith rubbed his eyes to clear them of the illusion he was seeing, but the wall started to move as soon as he began to rub his eyes. 

He quickly made his barrier reach back to the ground and created one that surrounded both him and Luna at the same time. It was a decision that ended up saving both his and Luna\'s life.

The debris on the roof could not handle the door opening and fell directly on Keith\'s barrier. 

Luna clutched her eyes shut, waiting to ride this event down. It was a horrifying fate for her if the barrier happened to fail. 

But she was lucky that the barrier held on and Keith\'s body around her also added an extra layer of protection for her. 

"I-I survived. Thank God I survived."

Luna clutched her heart and her knees decided to lose all strength. It was the circle of Keith\'s arms that were holding her up currently. But her heart was beating very loudly and painfully when she felt the arms tighten around her frame.

"Hey, are you alright? Luna, pull yourself together. The danger has already passed."

"N-Noah? Are we safe now? What happened to all the debris?"

Luna was currently not herself. She was trying hard to get a grip on her mind but it was a lot more difficult than she expected. 

At least Keith\'s warmth around her was making her spinning head feel better. She could finally feel at peace with him by her side.

\'These are foolish thoughts I need to perish out of my mind. I do not need to think why I like Noah right now.\'

Luna shook her head to clear her mind of all the distractions. She needed convenience herself that she did not hold any feelings for the man in front of her.

She was here on a mission and Luna could not afford to get distracted.

"Luna, are you coming to the other side with me? I will understand if you want to head back now."

Keith asked her with a serious expression on his face. Luna flinched at his tone and the seriousness of his voice. 

She could go back if she wanted to. 

No! She should go back now before she ended up being tangled up in Keith\'s business any more than she already was.

But something inside her was that she needed to be by this man\'s side or she would regret it. 

Luna had never felt such conflicting emotions before and now she did not know what route she should follow in her heart. Should she go with her logic or her emotions?
