Chapter 319 Voidweaver's Orb"Congratulation Saahira. Now you are an SSS Rank Legacy holder," Alex said with a bright smile as he walked toward her.

Alex's words seemed to pierce through the cloud of confusion in her eyes. However, instead of displaying sheer joy or relief, Saahira gazed at him and began silently muttering.

"Sir, is this also an illusion?" She questioned hesitantly as she stepped back.

"Yes, it must be. I'm still in the trial. I will not fail. I am going to pass the trial and acquire the legacy to become a valuable member of the organization." Saahira said, her voice quivering with unwavering resolve.

Alex wasn't surprised by Saahira's continued skepticism as he understood that acquiring a legacy from a realistic trail would be an overwhelming experience, and it would take some time for the trial-taker to come to terms with their new reality.

"Saahira, calm down and give the command to log out. When you've had some time to rest and recover, you can come back online," Alex said as he appeared before.

"This is a trial. If I do as you say, I will fail the trial," Saahira said as she quickly stepped back and withdrew her azure mage staff defensively.

Seeing her take his words as mere lies, Alex knew Saahira needed some time and rest to recover, as even though only ten hours had passed outside, in the trial, she had lived for three days, which felt like years to her, and now all she was focussed on was clearing the trial.

"Saahira, you should take a small nap," Alex said, and instantly, her eyes widened, and her body seemed to go limp as her heart stopped beating.

Alex caught her gently as she began to fall backward and carefully laid her on the chamber floor.

Alex sat beside her, a contented smile gracing his face because a great possibility of failure was always present despite his confidence in Saahira.

If there had been any alterations to the legacy trial beyond what the Ugly Merchant Guild disclosed, then there remained a significant chance that the current Saahira would not be deemed suitable to inherit the legacy.

But everything went well, and Now his organization had another member with one of the best top-ranked hybrid legacies that could make Saahira not only one of the best healers, even rivaling the best of the Healers, but also a fire-wielding mage with monstres destructive might.

Alex went back to meditation, waiting for Saahira to wake up, and a little over an hour later, she regained consciousness.

"Check Your System Notification Log," Alex said with a calm smile, and although still displaying clear emotions of alertness and a hint of distress, Saahira sat upright and nodded in understanding.

"I am sorry for how I reacted earlier," Saahira said, with her head down after a few minutes of silence.

"You should be responding with cheers, not bringing the mood down with an apology.""You are now an SSS Rank legacy Holder," Alex said with a chuckle as he taped her on the shoulder.

"Sir, Thank you, Thank you so much for everything," Saahira said, her voice breaking as tears of joy filled her eyes.

Saahira sat there as the realization of her newfound status began to settle in, and she couldn't help but shed tears that welled up in her eyes, reflecting a mix of emotions.

"The Organization, No You, Sir Hidden One, has given me so much."

"Freedom from a lifetime of Slavery, Financial freedom, Strength and Status I never imagined I would have, and Now a Legacy of the highest Rank that only a minuscule among the billions of players would ever have the chance to acquire,"

"I don't think that even a lifetime of service would be enough to repay the debt I owe to you and the organization," Saahira said, her breaking voice filled with genuine gratitude and a sense of loyalty that went beyond words.

Alex understood that right now, Saahira was going through a roller coaster of emotions, as her life had completely changed in just a few months, and now she was handed such an opportunity that even all the wealth and power could not buy for almost every individual.

If Saahira told someone her life story of the past few months, they would call it a straight lie, and she realized it very well and wasn't taking it for granted.

"Just stay who you are and just stay loyal that all I and the organization ask of you," Alex replied with a smile, his eyes reflecting the pride he felt in Saahira's words.

"I will not disappoint," Saahira said, nodding multiple times while cleaning her tears and getting her emotions together.

Alex kept silent and let Saahira collect her emotions, and when she recovered from her initial emotional turmoil, her face held a carefree, bright smile as she began to tell him about the trial.

The trial went exactly the same till the moment bandits arrived, and Saahira was required to use the summoning magic at the cost of her life to save the villager.

As the trial required, she did use it, but the following events happened completely differently than what he knew.

After using the spell, Instead of summoning an Aldrich white flame phoenix and taking her last breath while watching the bandits burn to ash, Saahira underwent a transformation.

She was encased in robs of white flame, wings of pure white fire spread from her back, and a crown of flame appeared on her head, with an intricately designed staff appearing in her hand.

She was wielding such strength she couldn't fathom as any arrows, spear, or magic attack thrown by bandits turned to ash as they got near her, and without any effort, she killed all of them.

The trial didn't end there because after killing the bandits and the villagers, she decided to sacrifice her life to protect them, and instead of thanking her, they started to curse at her, calling her the cursed child, saying they should have killed her when she was born.

In that instant, all the tormenting memories flooded back, and her mind echoed with the idea of putting an end to their lives. Her once newfound pride felt tainted by their hurtful words. She saw them as mere nuisances that could be easily extinguished by her will.

"At that moment, I was ready to end their lives and would have done so when I remembered,""Who I am,"

"I am no murderer."

"I wanted to save lives, not take them, so I raised my staff and willed for the injured to healed, and in an instant, all the injured villagers were healed, and then everything went dark for some time,"

"After that, I woke up in that white crystalline chamber and walked through the passage to reach this chamber, and then you know what happened," Saahira said, with bright eyes and a smile on her face.

'Now I am curious if Saahira gained this summoning skill in my previous life because I sure remember never seeing her transform into anything of such nature,'

'Well, I would find out eventually,' Alex thought as he stood up, ready to leave.

"I have sent you a new contract," Alex said, and he sent Saahira a new contract that was a bit more restrictive than the last one but also gave major benefits.

Saahira, with a smile on her quickly nodded and agreed to the contract without spending any time reading it.

"Use this Ring to change your status," Alex said, throwing her a disguise ring before moving toward the crack to leave this place for good.

Alex and Saahira rode on the bird to reach the capital city, Nova, and from there, he went to a hotel, waiting for Feldar to contact him while she returned to Malefis Domain.

--------------------

(Four Hours Later)

In the well-lit hotel room, two men sat opposed to each other, having cups of tea placed before them.

"You have my gratitude for saving my sister's life, and to pay the debt of saving her life, I am willing to give away my most precious treasure that I thought would stay with me until my last breath." Feldar began as he took out a fist-sized orb and placed it on the table.

Alex's eyes widened as he laid his gaze upon it. The orb was a magnificent creation, made from pristine crystal with a dark black and purple miasmic mist swirling mysteriously inside it.

"The Elemental Ruler who saved the city of Molentia from the demons was Elincia Rardinthril, the Master of the StormBearer faction from the Thunder Knight Order."

"After using some connections to get an audience with her, I found out she went to the city because of her niece, Telyssa Rardinthril, who asked her to do so at a time when other, more important cities were under siege, and this was all thanks to a timely call of help from you."

"So not only did you save my sister's life once, but twice. And with her, you saved many other innocent lives." Feldar said and continued after moments of silence.

"I hope the Voidweaver's Orb fulfills your requirements, and as for the payment of it, consider it more than paid with the debt I owe you, and even if in the future you need my help, don't hesitate to contact me," Feldar said as he stood offering a handshake.

Alex was prepared to offer tens of legendary items, gold coins, Honor Points, and anything he could get his hands on to get the Voidweaver's Orb, and if Feldar hadn't offered it himself, he was ready to use some force.

But seeing Feldar's willingness to not earn anything back on his treasured item made him keep silent and refrain from even offering some compensation to not undermine his sacrifice and genuine appreciation.

Alex returned the handshake, his heart filled with a profound sense of gratitude and respect for the man willing to part away with his strongest treasure to repay a debt.
