Second World

1113 Chapter 1113. Space-Time Chamber

Jack led the group to the entrance of the time chamber. Only core members were allowed access to the time chamber, so the existence of the two little nightmares won't be exposed to too many people.

Additionally, this time chamber let Sol and Fira experience ten times the time outside. Peniel ensured Jack that although the time chamber didn't affect the player's age system, real-life aging was still affected by the chamber. This meant that the little nightmares would grow at a pace ten times than they would have normally outside.

The time chamber also had dense mana due to the installed mana-gathering stone. This dense mana gave any native a good growing environment.

Pandora followed them. She didn't allow herself to get unsummoned until she was sure her sister's two offspring were properly settled.

Jeanny was already waiting for them at the time chamber's entrance. Jack introduced her to everyone. She was especially fond of Sol and Fira. She thought they were very cute.

"I cleared everyone out of the chamber," Jeanny said. "I don't want the little ones to get spooked if there are too many people when they enter."

"Thank you," Jack said.

Everyone then entered the time chamber.

Once they were inside, Jack and Jeanny heard a system notification, "Detects an upgrade item. Do you wish the chamber to fuse with the item?"

Both of them were confused at first before they realized what item the system was referring to. Above Luna's power orb, which had also followed them inside, was a holographic box. It contained yes and no options.

"Hey, Peniel. Are you aware of this?" Jack asked.

"That power orb is a modified item. I have no idea what it can do," Peniel replied.

Still, that item was not theirs. He couldn't decide about it. The orb would most likely disappear after fusing with the chamber. The same as the previous mana-gathering stone. So, Jack turned to Pandora.

Since she was linked to Jack, she also heard the system notification. She seemed to have a better idea about what the orb could do. She asked Jack through Peniel, "Will Sol and Fira be safe here?"

"It's the safest place I can think of," Jack answered.

Pandora asked another question, "Do you promise that Sol and Fira can stay here until they reach adulthood?"

"You have my words," Jack uttered. "Anyone who dares to chase them away or bully them will have to deal with me."

"I give you my words as well," Jeanny said.

"All right. Let my sister's essence fuse with this place. It will provide a better growing environment for them," Peniel translated Pandora's answer.

Since they had gotten permission, Jack clicked the yes button in the holographic box.

Once he did, the power orb burst into tiny particles that spread out. All of a sudden, everyone felt a loss of equilibrium. At first, they thought something was wrong with their vision because they saw the chamber getting stretched. But then they noticed the people they were with looked the same, only the room that was changing.

When the stretching stopped, they discerned that the space they were in had now become much larger than the previous.

"This…," Everyone was speechless.

"It's spatial distortion!" Peniel uttered.

"Like the dome where the underworld portal is?" Jack asked.

"Yes. The orb contained corrupted mana. It must have interacted with the regular mana and created this effect like the phenomena inside the dome. Alternately, a nightmare's energy contains the power to manipulate space. That can also cause this space alteration."

"This wide space is better for Sol and Fira to live in," Tenka said. "I was originally worried since nightmares need to run regularly to stay healthy. That previous space didn't give much space for that. Now, this is more appropriate."

"Even the name has changed," Jeanny said. She was checking the description via her guild page. "It is now called Space-Time Chamber. The size is around twenty times from before. We can easily fit more than two thousand members inside. With this size, we no longer need to regulate this chamber usage. Every core member can freely use it."

"That's great," Jack said. "But do remind them to not disturb our guests, or else they will have to answer to me."

Jeanny chuckled. "I'm sure they will behave after listening to that threat."

"It's not just the size that changed, you know," Jack said. The mana inside this chamber had become even denser. There was a sense of heaviness that was characteristic of the corrupted mana. Ones who trained mana manipulation here would have better progress than training elsewhere.

The two little nightmares were running excitedly around the place.

"Thank you, mister Storm Wind. We truly can't express our gratitude," Yrin said.

"Please, call me Jack," Jack said to her. "That's my real name."

While Sol and Fira were running, an image of a fiery horse accompanied them. It was Luna's image. This chamber gave her essence enough power to manifest her spirit so that she could watch over her two little offspring while they were inside here.

"Would you look at that," Jack said, smiling in relief as he watched Sol and Fira running alongside their mother's spirit

Pandora came beside Jack and neighed softly. She then burst into fire and transformed into a steed whistle that returned to Jack's hand.

"She said thank you," Peniel translated.

Jack studied the red whistle in his hand.

Pandora Whistle (Legendary steed)

Summon an augmented Nightmare steed

At the same time, he heard a notification, "Congratulations on completing the steed's quest, Help Pandora. Receive rewards of 5,000,000 exp, 60 gold coins, and 2,000 mana cores. Pandora will now be your permanent steed."

'Yes!' Jack exclaimed within. At first, he thought he failed this quest because he was unable to save Luna. If so, then he had to look for a new steed after one month.

The exp points from this quest completion combined with the demons killed by his minions around Hraghshu's manor had increased his Brave Swordsmaster and Beast Monarch by one level. His Brave Swordsmaster was now level 67 and his Beast Monarch was level 66.

Jack and Jeanny spoke a bit longer with Tenka and Yrin. Jeanny told them if they needed anything, they could just tell the core members who entered this chamber. Or they could also go directly to the guild hall to look for her. She had set so the two were permitted into the hall.

Jack told the satyrs he would most likely not be around much, but he would check on them from time to time if he was in this headquarters.
