In the middle of the formation there was a long ice blue colored table with just two or three runes carved on it and then a glowing ball on top of the table.

[So this is the ball huh...] Kylo took the shining orb in his hand and looked at the purple colored crystal ball that fit in his hands perfectly.

He checked the ball for few seconds then frowned.

[... No energy??]

He was stunned for a second. He expected the ball to contain primordial energy in large amount.

He expected the ball to be made of some precious metals that could only be encountered and not sought after.

But... [Did I waste a week for this ball?]

He then shook his head, because he knew from the little information that he got from the formation inside his 'body' that this orb was required to open the 'main gate of his house'.

[It is like I am solving some kind of puzzle...] He looked at the orb with a weird expression on his face.

Putting all these thoughts in the back of his mind, he looked at the table.

[This is made of a precious metal...] Kylo was speechless.

The orb was normal and the table was a treasure?

[And how extravagant was he as a person to even create this table out of a million year old cold steel?!]

Yes the table was made of a metal known as Cold Steel. This type of metal is used only when one wants to build study things.

Among weapons it is used to make shield for the Mages, armours for the cultivators and the likes.

Even in his previous life, this type of metal could only be found in dynasties or maybe some top empires or the top sects, clans and organisations who are at the same level as dynasties.

And the rest who found it were the lucky ones.

Kylo picked both the table and the crystal sphere and started walking back towards Avery.

Seeing how everything was solved peacefully, Avery heaved a sigh of relief before starting to walk towards Kylo.

She also wanted to see what was so special about the crystal ball really.

[After all, something guarded so tightly by a formation should definitely be a treasure]

With more curiosity and anticipation in her eyes she increased her pace towards Kylo.

She had a weird expression on her beautiful face, when she saw her master dragging the table with him.

Although she knew it might be.... no it definitely is some kind of treasure.

[But the image really does not suit him...] Avery thought and then laughed.

"Store this table in your ring." Kylo said to Avery who was still chuckling. After all Kylo did not have any space ring to store.

He knew what she was laughing about and decided to ignore it. Looking at the crystal ball he thought

[There is no energy present in this. Will this really open the third path?

Maybe when both the balls are together we will get to know the mystery.

After all there is nothing the formation could get from lying...] Kylo had a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Master, what is this orb?

Is there something special about it?" Kylo broke from his reverie and looked at his maid who had curiosity written all over her face.

She also checked this purple colored ball with her Soul sense, but she could not find anything.

But she knew this was a treasure or else why would there be such a dangerous formation.

Kylo shook his head and said "We will know about it later." and stretched his hand.

Seeing the confused look on her face Kylo said "Give me a space ring."

"ohhh." Avery removed the ring in which she had collected all the treasures she got from the passageway from her hand.

Kylo was about to take it when she suddenly grinned and withdrew her hand.

Kylo saw the grinning face and immediately knew she was once again upto something.

"Say master... Don't you know it's bad manners... you have to say 'please' when you request for something you know~"
