Chapter 183 Deed's Worth
Feeling the lock on the Spark, Nathan tried to get a basic understanding of it.
\'Touching\' the Spark using his energy, Nathan slowly familiarizes himself with the Spark.
After a certain amount of time, it finally stopped.
\'I am now more or less familiar with this Spark. Now, all I have to do is unlock the lock that I felt inside the Spark.\'
Thinking of that, Nathan frowned.
\'But how am I gonna unlock it?\'
Nathan did not have to think for long before his attention focused on the energy covering the Spark that he is controlling.
Immediately, a light bulb seems to light up inside his head.
\'I get it! I understand now how I\'m supposed to do it!\'
Without hesitation, Nathan poured all his attention at his energy and started using it to \'fill\' up the \'keyhole\' of the lock.
Green energy that is full of vitality started to pour down the keyhole.
Since Nathan has his eyes closed all this time, he did not notice that when he started to pour his energy on the Spark, a phantom of a tree that is bigger and even more majestic than the [Miracle Tree] showed up!
And on the surface of the Spark, mold that is verdant green started to appear until it covered the whole Spark.
Click!
At this time, Nathan also felt something click inside his head.
The \'keyhole\' has been filled and the lock has been removed!
Suddenly, as if a dam opened, a flood of energy coming from the Spark started to rush towards Nathan\'s body.
And Nathan\'s body was like a soil that hasn\'t been watered for hundreds of years, and started to absorb that energy like there\'s no tomorrow.
The flood of energy passed through every corner of his body and became nourishment for his body!
Nathan\'s strength started soaring at speed visible through the naked eye!
As that energy became his, Nathan felt warm all over his body and he experienced an unparalleled sense of comfort to the point that he was unable to stop letting out a moan.
"Ugh!"
After a few minutes, the energy flood finally stopped.
Nathan snapped his eyes open and saw the Spark that was previously on the bed is now floating in front of his eyes.
But Nathan did not react after seeing it, he just looked at it but did not make any other movement.
Then slowly, the Spark started to float towards Nathan.
It approached inch by inch until it touched Nathan\'s forehead.
The moment the Spark made contact with his forehead, it seemed to have started melting.
The Spark turned into a liquid state with viscosity similar to that of mercury.
In that state, it continued to move forward and magically passed through Nathan\'s forehead.
The melted Spark, now inside Nathan\'s head, started heading towards his brain.
Next, without stopping, it started to spread around and seems to become a blanket that covers Nathan\'s brain.
Nathan was aware of all this happening and accepted it without worrying about anything.
Meanwhile, Arthur, who was walking down the memory lane with the [Miracle Tree] beside him, suddenly turned his head in the direction where the bungalow is located.
He smiled and said, "It looks like the kid has already started with his breakthrough to the Transcendent stage, huh."
When Nathan got rid of the lock from the Spark, Arthur felt a huge energy appearing inside the bungalow.
That is how he knows that Nathan is already going through his breakthrough.
Mira or the [Miracle Tree] also felt it at the same time as Arthur did.
So, hearing Arthur\'s words, Mira was not surprised.
[Yes, it seems like he did.]
But then Mira turned her attention to Arthur and said,
[But I felt that the energy that should have come from the Spark he used seems a lot more than what a legendary Spark. I wonder why that\'s the case.]
Hearing that Mira seems confused, a confident look appeared on his face again as he turned his gaze at her,
"Of course, it should be more. It was given by me after all!"
Mira \'looked\' at Arthur and with a curious tone, she asked, [You gave him a Spark? What is its quality? Is it greater than legendary?]
Arthur nodded.
Laying his body on the grass, Arthur looked at the sky and said, "It was something that I got from the Forbidden Zone."
[Forbidden Zone!?]
Mira seems surprised at Arthur\'s words and says in a tone that is a bit higher than usual.
Worriedly, she asked, [Why did you go there!?]
Arthur did not answer immediately and just continued staring at the sky for a while.
Then after a few seconds, he opened his mouth and said, "I went there when you… died. …I was looking for something that can help me get you back."
Arthur has a sorrowful expression while keeping his eyes up.
Hearing the answer from Arthur, Mira suddenly fell silent.
Her heart aches after hearing that Arthur even went to the most dangerous place in the universe all just for her.
Mira felt sad and guilty at the same time.
The man she loves actually went through things that she can\'t even imagine.
The branches on the tree started swaying wildly, making the wind howl as if it was crying.
[I\'m sorry.] Mira said in a low voice.
Arthur felt the emotions of Mira and got up from the ground.
He moved his hand and touched the body of the [Miracle Tree] and whispered, "You have nothing to be sorry about. I did all that because I didn\'t want to believe that you\'re gone."
Then looking at the majestic tree in front of him, he smiled and said, "And you\'re back now. That\'s what\'s important."
Feeling that Mira\'s mood seems to have been lifted a little, Arthur then turned his eyes again in the direction where Nathan is.
"Since he was able to bring back to life, something that I was not even able to do after going to the Forbidden Zone, it was just right to give him something that was worthy of his deed."
After that, Arthur stopped talking and leaned his back on the [Miracle Tree], enjoying his peace.
