?Chapter 466: Chapter 467: The Secrets Revealed by the Guard Chapter 466: Chapter 467: The Secrets Revealed by the Guard The tomb guardian’s attitude was even more polite than last time—almost verging on respectful.
Fenna could clearly sense the change in the atmosphere around her, as well as the questioning glances from her colleagues, yet she herself didn’t know how to explain this mysterious change—even though some vague conjectures surfaced in her mind, she couldn’t articulate them.
She could only lower her head and look at the parchment the silent giant handed to her, hesitating for two seconds before reaching out to take it and gently drawing a breath.
“I’ll be right back,” she said quickly to Bishop Valentin, then followed the giant guarding the tomb, stepping towards the pale architecture not far away.
The heavy stone doors closed slowly behind her, and the ancient and mysterious crypt sealed itself once again. The giant guardian didn’t disappear; instead, like a competent guide, it followed Fenna towards the deeper chamber, where the monotonous footsteps echoed in the profound and lengthy corridor, making the surroundings even more silent.
Fenna silently recited the various prohibitions to be mindful of after entering Vision 004 and also watched the tomb guardian’s movements carefully. She reflected on the guardian’s behavior before she had entered the chamber last time, the thoughts in her mind unceasingly stirring.
Due to the limitations of Vision 004, she couldn’t remember what had happened after her last entry into the chamber, but she did remember that the guardian’s attitude had already subtly changed before her last entry—back then she hadn’t thought much about it; however, this time, a host of associations uncontrollably spread throughout her mind.
While Fenna was caught in the tumult of her thoughts, a deep and hoarse voice suddenly reached her ears—the giant guardian had broken the silence.
“Do you have anything you wish to ask?”
Fenna was startled—the silent and fearsome guardian was actually initiating a conversation with a “Listener” entering the tomb?!
She quickly reviewed the information about Vision 004 in her mind, confirming how to respond to the current situation amidst the various prohibitions, then, after mustering some calmness, she chose her words with care before asking, “Why are you so friendly towards me?”
“Because you are a messenger,” the tomb guardian actually replied immediately, “Messengers are transcendent and to be treated with courtesy.”
