19 Htriber

"W-what about Keyala? is she still alive?!" said Asher hurridly.

"No, she took her own life," she said, as she remembered the scene when Keyala committed suicide.

Asher clenched his fists.

"But don't worry, she can still be brought back to life," said the elder with a smile.

"!!!" Asher was shocked, he looked at the elder with hopeful eyes.

"When she took her life I used a special item, it called soul seed," she said.

Asher's ring shone and a palm-sized glowing seed-like object flew out.

"A soul seed is a very rare gift from the world tree, it can heal souls, and also prevent them from joining the world's energy," she said.

"I-is that Keya?"Asher was stunned, he could see a small silhouette curled inside the seed.

"To bring her back, you only need to sink the soul seed in the juice of the fruit of life, and let the soul seed absorb every drop, it will take some time for the body creation so you need to be patient," she said.

"That's it?" asked Asher, afraid he will miss something. (Author: That's it, dude)

"I won't ask you to forget about revenge since they will not leave you alone, that boy Almar, will surely give them your description to put a bounty on, so I need you to be careful, for Keyala's and your sake, your biggest enemy is Heaven's guild, it's huge organization that controls all the guilds, you should avoid the alchemy, mage, merchant, and adventures guild, instead you should join the underground guilds" she said.

Asher nodded.

"Inside the ring other than the soul seed and fruits of life I left you a specially crafted glass capsule big enough to hold an adult, fill it with the liquid and let the seed sink, before closing it, I also left you a high quality enhanced leather armor set and an enhanced cloak, and all the remaining potions and rare materials I had in stock" she said.

Asher suddenly began to glow.

"My time has ended but yours had just begun young Asher, take care of my daughter, and rise above everyone else," she said before Asher completely vanishing.

Asher appeared in unknown part of the forest, he was happy that he can bring Keyala back, sad about the elder and the others and angry about the heaven's guild.

*Ash, are you alright?* Asked Neo, without using the notification sound.

"Un" Asher nodded before his ring glowed and a big glass capsule appeared.

He then took a fruit of life, and cut it slightly with his nail, and squeezed it inside the capsule, and surprisingly the palm-sized fruit kept leaking golden liquid until the capsule was almost full.

He then took the seed and gently in the liquid on top of the liquid, letting it sink inside, before closing the capsule.

*Ding/Scan:

"How much time would it take for it to reach 100%? " asked Asher.

*1 year, 1 month, 12 days, 9 hours,

24 minutes, 56 seconds* said Neo.

"Good, now let's..." said Asher, before he was interrupted.

*Ash* said Neo.

"Yes Neo, what is it?" asked Asker curiously.

*Can I have one fruit of life?* she said.

"Sure, but why do you need it?" asked Asher suspicious.

*I need to update my self so that I can be more useful in the future* she said.

"But you are already useful, I always ask myself what would I do without you, you can have, you deserve it," said Asher with a warm smile.

*...Thank you Ash,* she said shyly.
