\'I guess that\'s the end then…\'

Spending the last hour doing nothing but absorbing and purifying elements as my last time having access to this \'Sacred room\', or more like the last time the \'rooms\' are going to be used…

Standing up, I took out the first chain \'Firework\' put it on the ground on my place, then I immediately activated my \'Body of Elements\'!

Using \'Lightning Steps\' and dashing outside of the cave, moving at almost my full speed, I moved to the next \'room\' on the map.

Swoosh!

A tenth of a second later, I used my telekinesis to throw away the arrows that were suddenly shot at me, apparently from the watchtowers that the overseer had talked about.

\'I see, they have enchanted bows ready to shoot anyone who comes close to one of the \'rooms\'...\'

Otherwise, considering my current speed, normal demons wouldn\'t be able to react this fast upon just seeing me, in fact the arrows were laced with a pretty nasty poison and had the ability to combust upon contact, making them a very effective guarding artifact…

However, when countered with \'Telekinesis\' it pretty much lost its effectiveness, becoming just an annoying fly that needs to be slapped away.

Remembering how Sand went to a small shack close the cave to do something the first day he accompanied me and didn\'t go with me for the following days, I could somewhat guess that was some sort of a registering room that made the bow artifact regard me as a registered user of the \'room\' thus why I never got shot for the last few days.

\'Well, I gotta go!\'

Throwing the next chain \'Firework\' in the cave from the narrow opening, I dashed towards the next one at full speed…

`~~`~~`~~`

"Hey Rod! \'Sacred Bow\' no.2 seems to have been activated just now…"

"What? If it an intruder? Is that even possible? No foolish demon would do such a stupid act knowing that the \'Sacred Bows\' are in place, and no normal human has ever entered this base!"

"I don\'t know, I\'m confused as well… wai- wait a second! It\'s not only \'Scared Bow\' no.2!"

"What is the meaning of this? Not only \'Sacred Bow\' no.3, but also no.4 & no.5 almost at the very same time, is that a foolish uprisal of some sort?"

"That\'s not the end! All the \'Sacred Bows\' have been triggered and activated! That\'s exceptt no.1 for some reason…."

"Could it be the new \'Candidate\' who just entered the base a few days ago? Only he was registered recently with \'Sacred Bow\' no.1, that\'s the only way to explain how only \'Sacred Bow\' has no reaction…"

"If it isn\'t Lord overseer or not that scary subordinate of his, then it could only be him, after all, the \'Sacred Bows\' wouldn\'t react to them both anyway, the problem is how did he manage to set them off almost at the same time…?"

"It\'s not our job to figure this out, we just have to report this to the overseer! Hurry up!"

"Eh? What is that streak of lightning moving inside the base?!"

`~~`~~`~~`

\'Alright, first step is done\'

Throwing the \'Fireworks\' in to get filled with corrupted elements was only the first step, after all the automatic function engraved on the crystals was only to create an \'Elemental Severing\' barrier, there was no extra function to release it after another 5 seconds, double layering was still somewhat out of my reach.

But the solution to that was still as simple as the other solutions have been, that was to use the \'Engraving Wisps\' as a trigger.

\'Engraving Wisps\' were some sort of safety triggers that are put added together to small crystal fargements at the same time the elemental crystal core of the artifact is engraved, destroying that fragment would result in the created artifact losing its function, and in the case of my \'Fireworks\', they would deactivate the \'Elemental Severing\' barrier, thus allowing the wanted reaction to continue!

In fact, \'Engraving Wisps\' were supposedly some sort of limitations that enchanters put in their work, so as to not fall for the case of \'Being killed using the weapon you created yourself\', and while some people knew about that limit, they still purchased artifacts and commissioned them to be made as their power was an aspect that couldn\'t be abandoned or else one would fall behind his peers, besides, trusted enchanters wouldn\'t use this method unless you truly pointed your weapon at them, making most of the consumers assured that they wouldn\'t be stabbed in their backs with the enchanters\' help.

That aside, using the deactivator as a trigger suited my plan well, so I joined all the \'Wisps\' into ten crystals, one crystal per chain \'Firework\'.

Of course, I wouldn\'t be as stupid as to start the \'Fireworks show\' right now, while I was beside the cave, so I directly headed to the veins\' meeting point discovered by Long, which was the place that the \'Cheering\' would reach the last and started preparing my defenses!

"What? Who is this, why is there a lightning user inside the base?"

"He looks similar to those half-demon abominations, but don\'t they give up their elements for our superior dark element?"

"We need to stop him, he is too suspicious, someone report to the overseer!"

Spreading the whole element reserve inside my body into the limits of \'Elemental domain\' which now went up to almost 5 meters thanks to my constant absorption at the \'Sacred room\', then overlaying ten \'Elemental Severing\' Barriers every half a meter to stop the combustion reaction from reaching me, otherwise I would face the same destiny as the demons whose elements would even touch a small bit of the burning elements causing them to self combust from the inside…

Finally, I started using my \'Weapon Ki\' with the support of the elements, making a mimic of the \'Rain\' technique, and stacking the five shapes of weapons forming to create a ball of defence around me under the last \'Elemental Severing\' barrier.

Only then did I crush the ten crystals in my hand...

Boom! Boom! Boom! Bo…...

The \'Firework show\' begins!
