Chapter 500 Cath Palug

I instinctively released the small sphere in my hands after hearing from Merlin what the heck this thing was. As someone who also experienced the raid, I am quite aware of how fearsome Cath Palug is. Yes, this might be a game, but we are currently in a VR game where monsters looked real. No matter how fictional they are and how fearsome they are, as long as they are a creature in this game, they will look realistic no matter what.

So holding something from that fearsome monster in the past timeline with a chance to revive is something different and I won't even say that this is a really good thing. I wouldn't mind if I hold it if the Cath Palug has no chance of reviving but if it has the slightest chance to revive itself, then that is a different story. My strength might be quite a high plus with my companions and pets, we are almost unstoppable but if the Cath Palug is revived, the current us will be swatted in one flick by the Cath Palug and we will die immediately. That is how fearsome and dangerous the Cath Palug is.

Just remembering that brutal fight is not easy. It would have been fine if I don't experience the battle by my own body and only my hands and eyes are strained but I still remembered that after the raid ended, I ended up taking a good 5 days' worth of rest before going back to play again.

"Having the heart of the Cath Palug means they are almost close to resurrecting Cath Palug. I didn't know they managed to even extract the monster's heart, made it filled with energy, and made it an item ready to be used to summon the beast out of the seal," Merlin scratches his head as he took some glances at the heart of the Cath Palug.

"What are you going to do about this, Merlin? You almost spent most of your magic power to seal Cath Palug in the past and now that Cath Palug is on the verge of breaking out, I don't think you can seal it again."

I frowned when I heard that. No wonder in this game lore, the Cath Palug is alive. In the real world according to the Arthurian Legends, Cath Palug was killed by King Arthur, allowing the deaths that Cath Palug created to stop forever. I just knew the lore of Cath Palug just now but to think the King Arthur here did not kill the guy. No wonder instead of killing Cath Palug, Merlin decided to use all of his powers to seal Cath Palug for an indefinite amount of time which also ended up losing most of his powers.

It's not a wonder why when Cath Palug was wreaking havoc, it was not sealed back and was instead forced to be killed. This was due to how Merlin doesn't have enough power left to reseal Cath Palug.

"What are we gonna do about this, Merlin? With this around, the only thing we can do for this is to use "that" method," The lady of the lake suggested.

"You want me to use "that" method? This is no joking matter, and Cath Palug should never be released at all! You know that!"

"Of course I do. But this is the only way. With that method, Cath Palug will never be unsealed again. Even though we already declared Cath Palug is dead, there are still some chances like this to occur and will instead cause havoc in the world. "That" method will remove that trouble for us!"

While Merlin and the Lady of the Lake are talking, Shana whispers in my ear. "Did you understand what the heck they are talking about? I am trying to comprehend what they are saying but I still have no idea."

I shook my head. "I don't have an inkling either. I sometimes even wish VR games developed a skip button just so we could skip their dialogs but damn..."

They continued talking for quite a while and to be honest, they just started arguing and from the tidbits of the dialog they are spouting since earlier, they are talking about using a certain method that would use the heart of the Cath Palug to create something. The lady of the lake is certain about it but Merlin is adamant about not using it to do that. Still, the method that the lady of the lake is speaking about is something I don't have any idea about. I may have returned in the past timeline but there are lots of things I never knew so everything here is new to me

After a while of arguing, Merlin gave up, and from the looks of it, he didn't win an argument against the Lady of the Lake and I can see the smug look on the lady of the lake's face how she managed to top off and beat Merlin in an argument.

"Alright. As much as I don't want to do this, what the Lady of the Lake said made sense. The only way to ensure Cath Palug will not hunt humans anymore while keeping him sealed is by doing "that" method. Right, you wolf mask boy, uh... your name is Bladeheart if I remember correctly?"

"Uh, yes?"

"We will be giving the heart of the Cath Palug in your hands. Also, I will also put the seal that I put on that tree to the heart itself."

"Wait, what? Isn't Cath Palug dangerous? And why would you pass this down to me? I don't have any means to maintain the seal of this intact!"

"Not necessarily boy, with this heart, we will convert the heart into a pet that will become your pet. A pet that you can command and use in battle. A strong pet that can easily annihilate any enemies that try to attack or kill you. Isn't that amazing?"

"Uh... but I already have two pets capable of doing that, and I don't think making a monster like the Cath Palug to be my pet is the most ideal way of doing it."

"No. We are already sure you are capable of doing this. If you have killed the perpetrators, then you are strong enough to handle that many problems either. Therefore, we will appoint you as the guardian who will prevent Cath Palug from going back into this world."
