Strongest Grimoire Of The Gods

Hours passed...

By now, Tyr had been climbing alone for 7 hours straight.

Hanzo and the others were still waiting, their patience growing more and more thin as Urvil's condition only seemed to worsen.

Hanzo had an even more stern look on his face now, "Five more minutes." He said out loud, staring at Urvil's face. She was sweating profusely.

Jonas had a serious gaze as his eyes were also locked onto the young girl.

Cyllia sat beside her best friend, fanning her with her hand.

Yurin stared at the ground, an unpleasant look on his face as well.

"Hey... is that just me or do you guys hear it as well?" Jonas suddenly said, lifting his head as his eyes went to the side.

Everyone paused, listening to what Jonas might have been talking about.

Sure enough, a light echo seemed to sound from somewhere.

"A voice?" Hanzo said, looking around, "Its been quiet for so long that even this faint noise seems loud."

He stood up, closing his eyes to hone into this sound some more. He wanted to confirm what it was.

"..."

"On.. m... st..."

"One mo... sto"

His eyes suddenly opened as the words finally entered his ears fluently. A slight smile appeared on his face: "He's here." He said out loud.

"One more stone."

The voice was louder this time, and the others were able to hear it as well.

Everyone located where the sound was coming from.

"The pool?" They questioned, leaning over it with confused looks.

"How can that be?" Yurin questioned.

"Is it some sort of trap door?" Cyllia mused outwardly.

After a few more seconds, a hand arose from what seemed to be out of the floor at the bottom of the pool.

Everyone's eyes expanded in shock as they saw this.

Tyr on the other hand felt a warm, wet sensation cover his hand.

From his point of view, there was no stone in between him and the water above him.

From the top, however, there was a stone floor.

'An illusion Aura Array?' Tyr questioned as he pushed himself up through the water and grabbed onto the ledge of the pool.

His hands were rid of all nails--bruised and scraped. His body was no less injured as he climbed out of the pool.

The others looked with gaped jaws and furrowed brows with their faces looking like they had just seen a monster appear out of nowhere.

As Tyr fell over the ledge of the pool and onto the floor, he noticed everyone and smiled before his vision began to become blurrier.

"Everyone... I finally made it..." He barely managed to say using what seemed to be the last of his energy as Ultimatum all quickly made their way toward him.

"What happened!?" Jonas was the first to question, kneeling beside Tyr and lifting him onto his knees. "Are you alright brother?" He sounded extremely concerned.

Tyr attempted to speak, but words didn't come out of his mouth. He had already gone far past his point of exhaustion. In the end, he was using sheer grit to finish the climb--pushing past his bodily limits.

[Stamina: 0/30]

He simply grunted, despite wanting to speak so desperately from the inside.

Hanzo came over, "How in the hell did you get in this shape?" He too was worried.

"Tyr! What happened to you!?" Cyllia questioned, rushing to his aid.

Yurin also hurried over to the young man.

Tyr continued attempting to force his sentence out as everyone paid close attention to his next words.

"Is... is..."

'Come on! Get the words out! I climbed this entire fucking wall just for this!'

"Is... everyone..."

Their anticipation grew even more as he saw this.

Finally, he managed to utter the last word: "Okay?"

Everyone was suddenly taken aback by this statement.

Tears attempted to come out of Jonas' eyes, "Wow... you truly are a great man." He said as he sniffled out of nowhere, "You're this injured but you still have the mental capacity to put us first."

Yurin furrowed his brows, "Is that not a bit too concerned? You should be worried more about yourself right now!" He shouted.

However, Hanzo's face was more serious. He saw a different message behind Tyr's words.

"Tyr... don't tell me, you already know what happened to Urvil," Hanzo said as the others quickly understood the situation.

Of course, there would be no other logical reason for Tyr to be concerned about everyone right now when he was about to enter the next life himself.

"No... but... now I do..." Tyr smiled slightly, "So... the note... wasn't... lying..." He slowly croaked.

"Wait. Heal a little first." Hanzo said, stuffing a handful of health capsules into Tyr's mouth.

Despite Tyr being heavily injured, all of his damage was a combination of small scratches and bumps. Thankfully, these were healed easily by health capsules--unlike torn limbs or internal injuries.

Tyr quickly began to return to a healthy shape as he sat up, "A note told me that a friend would fall ill. I had to create a medicine for them."

Jonas, Cyllia, and Yurin subconsciously gasped slightly in astonishment as they heard this.

They were both amazed and bewildered at the insane nature of this dungeon.

Tyr laughed, "Haha... thank god I could make it. All of that hard work was worth it after all. If I hadn't done that, Urvil might have been in trouble." He said as he stood up and slowly inched toward the short girl.

Jonas began to cry again, "Wow... truly a divine being. He went through so much pain, and in the end, he deems it all worth it just because he got to help a friend. I aspire to be like you one day, Tyr." Rivers of tears trickled down his face.

Everyone looked as Tyr took out a pill from his storage ring and put it into Urvil's mouth.

Their eyes danced with nervousness, hope, anticipation, and fear as Urvil's face remained frail.

Tyr exhaled, "It will work. I won't accept it not working after all that shit I just did." He declared.

At that moment, a golden light summoned in Urvil's glabella, or her metaphorical third eye.

Her face instantly began to turn more tan and get color, her body becoming more lifelike.

Within a matter of seconds, Urvil no longer looked weak--but rather she was glowing with energy!

She opened her eyes and instantly began to cry.

"Everyone... I'm so sorry for having you worry!" She said, wiping her streams of tears with the back of her wrists as Cyllia hastily embraced and comforted her.

"So she could tell what was going on the entire time huh..." Hanzo said, "What a horrible illness."

Tyr felt a wave of relief flush over him, "Man... that was way too close."

At that moment, the final door slowly scraped open.

Tyr looked around, "Hmm... this room looks pretty familiar." He began to question with sudden suspicion, "A little too familiar."

Before he could think too hard about it, however, Hanzo walked toward the slowly opening door.

"Everyone, take a short break. After that, we take out this final boss room and get that treasure."

Everyone looked at the squad captain with determined eyes as he finished with these words:

"Let's complete this mission!"

"Yeah!" The other squad members retorted in unison.
