The crack was deep, but it was nothing to the great Glory Lord, it was even harmless.
"Who's there?"
A scoff and then quickly a giant hand blasted towards Merlin.
"Bam."
With a casual sweep using his Flame Maxim, the giant hand instantly disintegrated but he saw who the attacker was. It was the sphinx statue that he had left behind to guard the Soul Medallion.
The sphinx statue had not changed much and quickly picked up on Merlin's life force as it exclaimed in surprise, "Master, you've returned?"
"That's right, I'm back!"
Merlin smiled. Even if the sphinx statue stayed here for over thousands of years, it would still remain unchanged, leaving it here to guard the Soul Medallion was the perfect decision.
"The Soul Medallion?"
Merlin's main objective was still the Soul Medallion.
"The Soul Medallion is safe and secure, Master. You've been away for so long, but no one has been here since."
