The Hero of Hypnosis

The inside of the room was dark and creepy. The light from the outside wasn't able to penetrate the room because of a magical barrier, and if it wasn't for Kai's night vision, he wouldn't have been able to see the contents of the room.

"The fuck is that?" He muttered to himself, walking into the room.

"The fuck is what? What are you talking about?" Amaya pulled at his arm, but Kai didn't budge.

The girls followed closely, making sure not to go past Kai. They hid behind him and peeked their head out occasionally.

"Is everything safe?" Gwen asked with a whisper as she squeezed Kai's arm tighter.

"Dunno? Do you think a spirit residing in armor who is sitting on a chair is dangerous?" That wasn't sarcasm. He was being serious. He had no Idea if that spirit was going to attack, so he approached with caution.

"Kyana, can you talk to it?" Nadya asked.

"I can try." She reached out using her ability to communicate with spirits. The energy she felt wasn't dangerous or overwhelming. In fact, it felt calm, welcoming, happy, and loyal.

"This spirit, it was a person, a beastkin. He is guarding the resting place of his master. That's as far as I can see, or feel, I guess." The moment she was about to pull back her ability, she felt something else. "Wait, there's more."

She reached out again, following the welcoming energy, but this time, the energy was not welcoming at all. An overwhelming bloodlust overtook her senses. She saw death, destruction, and misery. She saw countless lives get snuffed out right in front of her eyes, and the anger. The beastkin's anger was so potent that he went mad.

"AGGHHHH!!" Kyana clutched her throbbing head and collapsed to the floor unconscious. The sight was too overwhelming for her mind to handle, so it shut down.

"Kyana!" They yelled in unison, rushing to her aid. Nadya and Kai used healing magic on her, but that didn't seem to do anything.

"You...Peaked." An old, raspy voice spoke.

Kai turned around to see the armor moving alongside the spirit.

"What did you do?" He demanded to know. Kai made sure his girls were protected at all times, but that protection was only for physical damage, not mental. That was something he put on his list to fix.

"Nothing." The spirit responded. "She...Look...into....my....head."

That was true, Kai couldn't deny that. But that didn't mean his anger would pass.

"What do you want?"

"You...travelers...made...this...far. You...travelers...take...trial. Reward...power." The spirit pointed at him.

"And if we do not wish to take this trial?" Kai clenched his fists and prepared to attack.

"Travelers...Invaded...Tomb. Invaders...die."

"So you'll kill us if we decline the trial, huh? Okay, what's the trial?"

"Travels...face...me...in...combat. Travels...fail...die. Travels...succeed...power."

"Cool, when do we begin?"

The spirit drew its blade and took a fighting stance.

"Combat...now." The spirit rushed in and swung his sword at Kai's chest.

Kai, on the other hand, was not in the mood for this. So, instead of entertaining the spirit, he gathered all of his power in his fist, holding nothing back, and punched the armor so hard that not only did the armor get vaporized, but the entire tomb would have collapsed if he had let his power run wild instead of concentrating it on the armor like he did.

The spirit was instantly blown back and crashed into the wall. Because of that new soul ability Kai purchased, he was able to touch the spectral form of the spirit. Normally, this would be impossible since the beastkin wasn't a nature spirit, but a spirit of material being. But Kai was literally the impossible in human form.

"Traveler...strong. Travelers...pass. Power...granted."

A door behind the spirit opened, revealing a large room with a bunch of treasures. Gold, silver, and copper coins were littered all over the floor. Gemstones glinted in the dim light that was the spirit's form.

Rows of bows, swords, staffs, wands, guantets, hammers, shields, armor, and other weapons were hovering in the air as if on display. Books filled with ancient magic and martial arts were neatly sitting on a bookshelf with labels in alphabetical order.

And finally, a small bead was floating in the middle of the room.

"Take...what...you...can...carry." The spirit informed them.

"Cool." Kai snapped his fingers and everything went right into his inventory, leaving the room completely empty.

The spirit was shocked. He planned on closing the tomb for the next person who managed to come here, but he never expected Kai to have an ability where he can store things in an alternate space. Now he wished he had said to take only one item.

Kai wouldn't have listened anyway.

"Greed...is...sin." The spirit warned.

"Oh wow, greed. Please don't hurt me. Headass." Kai laughed and distributed the items among his girls.

Amaya got all the swords. Gwen got all the staff. Sasha got all the shields, hammers, and even a few axes she liked. Kyana took all the bows, crossbows, knives, and daggers. And Nadya took all the wands while spitting the Grimories with Gwen.

Because of their crest, they were able to store the items in their own pocket dimension. Kai kept the rest of the weapons.

These weren't just normal weapons either. They were extremely powerful artifacts with powerful enchantments and runes engraved on them. Each of them had their own specialty and unique ability that made them all different from each other.

As a precaution, Kai marked every single item with his crest, books, grimoires, and weapons, to make sure only they could use them and no one else could unless they allowed them to.

Before they left, Kai gave each of his girls an armor set of their own choosing that related to their specialty. All of them were happy and giddy and couldn't wait to test out their new toys.

'These artifacts are only second to divine weapons such as the hero's sword! Amazing.' Kai was happy he took this detour.

"Alright, time to go home. Everyone ready?" He asked.

"Yesss!" They all responded.

"Nice. Okay, thanks, mister. I hope you are able to pass on and reincarnate into your next life." Kai waved him off and teleported back to the capital with his girls.
