Chapter 42: 2nd Djinn, Phenex



Chapter 42: 2nd Djinn, Phenex

Once Daniel had cleared the 10th Stage, a golden door manifested right before his eyes, and with the Key that was given to him, he stood with a sense of eager anticipation radiating from him.

'You ready for this, Paimon?' Daniel asked with a glint of excitement in his eyes.

'It's about time to obtain the second Djinn, Phenex'

'I'm ready whenever you are master' Paimon's voice resonated within his mind through their telepathic connection, a soothing presence.

Daniel's lips curled into a confident smile as he clutched the key in his hand.

'I've never thought I would be contracting with 2 Djinns at the same time. Maybe in that sense, should I conquer all of the dungeons?'

Though the idea seems implausible, it didn't sound ridiculous.

The 72 Dungeons are all over the continents and even though all of their powers seem equal, the truth is far from it.

Paimon's laughter seemed to dance through his thoughts.

'That sounds like a good idea and who knows what happens once you have conquered every dungeon'

With determination blazing in his eyes, Daniel met Paimon's ethereal gaze through their telepathic link. 'It's time to unlock this next chapter. Let's do it'

As the key slid effortlessly into the golden door's lock, a sense of destiny enveloped him.

The door swung open, revealing a room filled with mountains of gold and treasures, and in the middle of the treasures lies a pendant.

'It's been a long time old friend' Paimon's voice echoed in his mind, tinged with anticipation and memories that echoed from a thousand years ago.

Walking forward with expectation, Daniel's fingers closed around the pendant.

The moment he held it, a voice reverberated through his mind, a curious and enigmatic presence.

"I wonder which Brave Soul has appeared in the dungeon?"

The pendant seemed to pulse with energy, a prelude to the unexpected.

In an instant, wisps of smoke enveloped the surroundings, swirling and twirling.

And then, as the mist cleared, an awe-inspiring figure emerged before him.

Phenex stood tall, a majestic and imposing figure.

Her sorrowful expression hinted at depths of experience, a story etched in her gaze.

Her form was striking, with bird-like feathers gracing her presence.

Her hair, a cascade of feathery strands, flowed with ethereal grace.

The headdress she wore, intricate and ornate, framed her face like a radiant sun.

Multiple necklaces adorned her form, each a testament to her grandeur.

Yet, it was the dichotomy of her attire that struck Daniel the most.

Amidst the opulence of her jewellery, Phenex appeared unadorned, her nakedness a symbol of vulnerability and strength combined.

Their gazes met, and without words, a connection was forged.

Phenex, the Djinn of life, stood before Daniel, her sorrowful eyes speaking volumes.

"I'm here to form a contract with you," Daniel said, his voice unwavering.

Phenex's gaze held a mix of surprise and curiosity.

"A contract with me? But human, it seems that you have already formed a contract with a Djinn."

In response to her words, Paimon materialized, her presence taking shape alongside Daniel.

As Phenex beheld Paimon, memories of their past comradeship flooded her thoughts, a bittersweet nostalgia.

"Phenex...it has been a long time," Paimon's voice held a hint of sentiment.

Phenex's sorrowful gaze met Paimon's, a moment of recognition and connection between ancient allies.

"Paimon, I never thought I would be seeing you like this, in such a form..."

Paimon's form radiated with a mixture of understanding and companionship.

"And the human you have contracted with seems quite interesting," Phenex remarked, her attention shifting to Daniel.

Curiosity piqued, Phenex drew nearer to Daniel, her presence enveloping him as she delved deeper.

Her gaze penetrated his soul, uncovering the intricate tapestry of his being.

Within the labyrinth of his essence, she discovered an unexpected revelation, his soul was intricately fused with souls that belonged to the Demonia Race.

"Yeah, I never imagined that I would also contract with him as well," Paimon's voice echoed Phenex's sentiment.

Phenex's gaze flickered between Daniel and Paimon, her thoughts a tempest of emotions.

"An intriguing twist of fate, indeed. Human, your essence is intertwined with the essence of the Demonia Race. This is unprecedented and holds great potential."

"So, human, do you wish to form a contract with me?"

Phenex's inquiry carried a blend of curiosity and intrigue, her ancient eyes fixed on Daniel as if unravelling the depths of his intent.

"Yes, without a doubt,"

Daniel's response rang with unwavering determination, his gaze steady as he met Phenex's fiery eyes.

A flicker of contemplation danced within Phenex's expression.

"But human, do consider that forming a contract with two Djinns simultaneously places tremendous stress on the body and mind. Are you still resolute in your decision?"

Daniel's conviction remained unshaken, his resolve mirrored in his response.

"It's not a problem for me as long as I continue to level up."

Phenex's feathers ruffled slightly, her curiosity piqued by his unflinching commitment.

She pondered the human's motivation for seeking a contract with two Djinns, an unusual path that intrigued her greatly.

"If that's your answer...then drop blood on the Pendant," she instructed, her voice carrying a weight of ancient authority.

Following her instruction, Daniel pricked his finger and let a droplet of his blood fall onto the pendant, sealing the contract with a tangible connection between their souls.

[: You have formed a soul-binding contract with the Djinn, Phenex, hence, you have obtained a slot option (Phenex) for Djinn Equip(S) and Djinn Equip Weapon(A) :]

As the connection solidified, a surge of power coursed through Daniel, the essence of Phenex intertwining with his own.

The pendant shimmered with newfound energy, a symbol of the unbreakable bond that had been forged.

At the same time, Daniel felt a certain weight added to his soul. It wasn't harmful to him but rather, it was uncomfortable.

But he knew it was because of contracting with 2 Djinns that he felt this way.

Phenex's gaze softened a hint of something akin to approval in her eyes.

"You are not like any other human, Daniel. This journey shall indeed be interesting."
