BXBX NOVEL Chapter 170 Nerphyl And Mak Lampir
She gritted her teeth and in a stammering voice Nerphyl managed to say something "W...wh...who are you?"
Mak Lampir tilted her head, black pus boils popping on her face. Her brow furrowed and her red eyes stared intently, "Didn\'t that young moksha tell you before?"
Mak Lampir felt that Moku was deceiving her. He didn\'t tell the users of her book that they had to pay something to unseal their power. This thought made Mak Lampir furious.
But before the anger aura emanated from her body, Nerphyl managed to form another word out of her mouth "Moksha?". Nerphyl tried to think calmly but the creature in front of her was so terrifying that she wanted to quickly run away from this strange place.
Mak Lampir gasped, she was reminded of Moku\'s strange expression at that time. \'That young moksha is so cunning, he doesn\'t even tell them about his origin of power\'. Mak Lampir smiled but her black teeth filled with fangs made her face look even more terrifying.
With a laugh that made the hair stand on end, she said "khikhikhikhikhi... I\'m sorry for your confusion.. It looks like there is some misunderstanding from my side. Let me introduce myself! My name is Mak Lampir. I already forgot my real name cause is to much pain come from that name. I\'m the one who guards the gate seal that is in your body!" Mak Lampir bent her back.
The 180-degree turn of Mak Lampir\'s behavior added to Nerphyl\'s fear. Her face grew pale but with quivering lips, she managed to string the words "Guards of the gate seal? Does that mean I can\'t open my seal without going through you first?"
Mak Lampir nodded and smiled "Yes, exactly!" black pus was bubbling out of her face. She was starting to get impatient. Although she is not experienced as a gatekeeper like Garuda but she has seen Garuda carry out its duties for centuries.
Hearing Mak Lampir\'s answer, Nerphyl straightened her back. Even though her knees were still shaking she tried to put on a fighting stance. He thought that after this, Nerphyl would have to fight Mak Lampir. This was the final test she wouldn\'t back down even if she had to fight the monsters in front of her.
"Okay, then what are you waiting for? Let\'s start!" said Nerphyl trying to strengthen her heart with a scream.
Mak Lampir looked strangely at the little creature that was not as big as a palm in front of her, "What are you doing? Are you want to fight or something? Don\'t you hear what I say?" Mak Lampir was confused, she didn\'t know what was going on at the moment.
Nerphyl was surprised, "uh.. ah.. Don\'t I have to fight you to be able to break the seal?" Nerphyl looked at Mak Lampir questioningly.
The two of them were then silent for a few moments.
Mak Lampir felt the back of her head start to itch and the intention to scratch it appeared in her confused mind. But she tried to calm down, she had to show the professionalism of a gatekeeper. "no.. no.. no.. why do we need to fight? Like I said before, you need to pay the price!" Mak Lampir complained, maybe after this she should beg Garuda to teach her how to be a good gatekeeper.
Nerphyl relaxed again, although she didn\'t understand what was going on but as a woman she understood that Mak Lampir was currently confused. She will also act the same when doing something she has never done before. Feelings of excitement, nervousness, awkwardness, and fear will mix into one in a stage fright.
Although Mak Lampir looks terrible, but it doesn\'t seem like Mak Lampir is a bad person, "ee.. what price?" asked Nerphyl.
Mak Lampir nodded and breathed a sigh of relief because the conversation had returned to a flow that she understood. "I need one of your sins," said Mak Lampir briefly.
"Sin? do you want me to commit a crime?" Nerphyl tilted her head.
Mak Lampir quickly shook his head "no. no. no. What I mean is a sin inside your consciousness. Without this sin you can no longer do anything related to that sin. For example, that young moksha that I told you about, he sacrifice his sin of sloth as the price to open the second gate"
Nerphyl gasped and realized something "Ah... that young moksha you mean is Moku? Yeah.. I remember he says we need to pay the price to unsealing our power. Ah, by the way, I\'m Moku\'s wife!" said Nerphyl proudly but seeing Mak Lampir\'s face which didn\'t change at all, Nerphyl became a little embarrassed "Then, what kind of sin that I need to pay?" her face blushed a little.
For some reason, Mak Lampir felt tired even though they were currently in the Mind Realm where there was no sense of fatigue. "You need to give me your sin of greed to rule" this time Mak Lampir\'s eyes glowed impatiently.
Nerphyl seemed to realize something and felt this was a trap prepared by Moku to keep his power from being disturbed by other monster races. But Nerphyl understood that this was a form of Moku\'s fear of the power that other monster races would possess when they unsealed their powers.
Maybe this is also a form of test from Moku for those who want to gain power and stay under his control. Nerphyl couldn\'t help but take a deep breath, it seems that after this even if she can become stronger she will no longer have the will to rule. Perhaps this was the right path she should choose.
She had to forget her true identity as a queen and really prioritize herself as a wife of Moku. It didn\'t take long for Nerphyl to think about all these things, as she himself was experienced with power and had often seen how humans used power to limit the development of their subordinates.
Compared to the way humans do, Moku is much more civilized. He didn\'t restrict the power development of the other monster races but only made sure that they had no intention of betraying him and taking his power. Maybe this is also a form of arrogance from Moku where he feels that no other monster will be stronger than him.
Nerphyl smiled and nodded "Okay.. I agree.. Please take sin from inside my body" said Nerphyl.
Mak Lampir smiled cheerfully until she showed all her black teeth "Good!! Then let\'s start!" With a wave of a hand, green energy shot into Nerphyl\'s body.
And not for a long time, the energy came back out and shot into Mak Lampir\'s gaping mouth. A strand of her white hair turned blue but soon disappeared to be covered by another white hair.
Mak Lampir closed her eyes and felt the passion for power return to her body. Nerphyl felt something missing from her, cold sweat dripping from her forehead. She felt that being a queen to all sylphs wasn\'t a great thing anymore but just a burden that weighed on her back.
Nerphyl wanted to ask Mak Lampir something but before a word came out of her mouth, Mak Lampir already waved her hand and said "You can go back now. Your power is already unsealed!"
Nerphyl\'s vision darkened and all of her consciousness returned to the front of the giant gate that had been opened. Before she could recover her concentration, a wisp of blue energy entered her body and made Nerphyl tremble violently.
One by one part of her soul changed, becoming stronger and more perfect. Nerphyl now understood that the blue energy she saw earlier was mana. Her soul was still immature so it couldn\'t adapt to mana, which was why monsters couldn\'t use mana. They are rejected by the world and considered as aliens. However, with the Vithaen Possession Art, Nerphyl\'s soul changed and became the same as the being from this world.
Even without using the power of a mutated animal, maybe later Nerphyl can become a mage capable of controlling mana. But right now her body had crumbled into a blue glowing ball. She could no longer use her sylph body but Neprhyl wasn\'t disappointed because in front of her was a much stronger body.
Nerphyl\'s consciousness returned to its original place, to the place where the battle of souls against the Mutated Tiger took place. The soulless body of the Mutated Tiger was still lying in front of Nerphyl with green energy chains wrapped around her body so that she couldn\'t move.
Now Nerphyl knows that this green energy chain is the power of Moku\'s dragon prana. Without the green energy chains holding back the Mutated Tiger maybe the previous battle of souls would have made a different outcome.
Nerphyl thanked her husband in her heart. She started walking towards the Mutated Tiger. It was time for Nerphyl to have the body of the Mutated Tiger.
