Bizarre Realm-Chapter 105 - 13: Legacy of the Nameless! Door Key!
In the underground chamber.
The number 1 sealed object extended black cables gently onto Shawn’s forehead, a slight electric current touched him, making the mysterious knowledge within his brain become active.
This massive mechanical creation seemed to come alive, with surging primitive magic power flowing inside it.
Accompanied by a flash of spell light, Shawn’s consciousness began to separate from his body.
His consciousness entered a gray haze.
This is a place that does not belong to the real world, nor to the Bizarre Realm.
He now stood in a void, with no Earth beneath his feet, no sky above his head, the whole world shrouded in gray mist, walking through the fog.
This was a bizarre place beyond Shawn’s understanding.
Looking at this space different from the real world and completely unlike the Bizarre Realm, Shawn couldn’t help but recall the conversation half an hour ago in the Dream Realm with Lady Hecate.
In the Dream Realm.
After knowing everything about Aemon, Shawn couldn’t help but ask a question that had puzzled him for long.
"Teacher."
"Is my existence very special in the Bizarre Realm?"
Someone wants to harm him, while others are protecting him, the indescribable void is coveting everything he has.
Walking along the way, Shawn clearly felt that someone was deliberately protecting him.
Even when performing tasks in the real world, he was always protected by Benjamin or accompanied by Daisy. As for inside the Bizarre Realm, there was no need to mention, Lady Hecate was always protecting him from above, usually, he was with the Butcher.
Later, someone secretly targeted Shawn, and to protect him, the Butcher sent him into the real world ahead of time.
If it was merely because he surpassed others in inspiration, it shouldn’t warrant a Death Demigod to lower their status to become his teacher. The Butcher always had high hopes for Shawn; such hopes definitely weren’t just because of his inspiration talent.
Then there was Shawn’s Death Retrospect, this ability was extremely powerful, almost like it was innate; he already possessed it when he returned to life after dying.
At the desk, Lady Hecate paused her pen, a faint hesitation in her expression, then softly said, "Your identity is very special."
My identity?
Shawn’s mind had a flash of inspiration, and he couldn’t help blurting out, "Foreigner?"
Lady Hecate nodded calmly, "Yes."
"Foreigner."
"You come from the same world as them, so you are qualified to inherit their legacy."
"Even your talent is one of the gifts they left for you."
The inheritance of nameless beings.
From the moment Shawn entered the Bizarre Realm and came back to life, the legacy left by the nameless beings had already begun to take effect.
Shawn was unlike the alien souls that descended, Lorice’s talent stemmed from Otherworld forces, possibly partly from Otherworld God. Shawn’s talent was a gift from nameless beings, because his Earth in his previous life had no supernatural power at all, theoretically, even if he traversed the Bizarre Realm, he shouldn’t possess such astonishing talent.
A dedicated worker who died suddenly from overwork, though a bit more hard-working than others, why did he just return to life with such an extraordinary inspiration, even possessing the ’Death Retrospect’ ability that other Legendary beings might not have?
Shawn finally understood where his golden finger came from.
It was a gift from nameless beings.
A legacy they left for the alien souls from Earth!
They feared that the future descendants entering the Bizarre Realm wouldn’t be able to survive in this cruel world, for Earth is devoid of supernatural power, talents are hard to match against other alien souls, so they secretly left a legacy.
Thus Shawn acquired one of the gifts when entering the Bizarre Realm.
Lady Hecate continued, "The indescribable void covets everything you have, also longing for the legacy they left behind."
"They want to replace you."
Shawn’s brows furrowed upon hearing this, murmuring, "Replace me?"
Like Detective Morty Laine?
Shawn remembers crossing the Soul Resonance corridor in the last moment, he actually didn’t realize he was being eroded by Detective Morty Laine, not until Checia exposed the presence of the void did Detective Morty Laine completely replace Shawn, controlling his body and consciousness.
Death Retrospect only activated when Shawn died, while Detective Morty Laine leaned close, Shawn was still blabbering on.
At that time, he wasn’t dead.
Lady Hecate gently nodded, "Yes. Replace you."
"You can use the number 1 sealed object, you can open the ancient relics of the Dark Era, you are qualified to inherit the ’Foreigner’s’ legacy..."
"The Bizarre Realm hasn’t had anyone advance to Demigod for a long time."
"Obtaining your identity."
"Even the indescribable void might have the chance to advance further."
Many of the doubts in Shawn’s mind unravel at this moment.
Why he always feels different from other alien souls, why the people in the Bizarre Realm value him so much, even willing to have a Death Demigod as his mentor, not because he inherently possesses some special talent, but because he comes from the same place as the unnamed beings who ended the Dark Era.
If not for all of this, Shawn’s situation wouldn’t be much better than Lorice back then, possibly even worse, as Lorice at least had knowledge and talent from the Otherworld.
