Chapter 54: 50: Speculation

Three minutes ago

AMOGRID(PALACE OF ETERNAL SLUMBER)

A group of people sat in different positions with a thick black table at their center, a projection screen hung up in the sky as they watched the images portrayed intently.

At this point, Bolten was trying to bore a hole through Goltan's head.

Soon Droll's voice rang out in a confused manner, "on a serious note, how did you lose the bracelet?... because, if I remember correctly, you're the most meticulous of us all...so how?".

"Hmph, not when it comes to Milen" Bolten scoffed.

"Eh?!!!!" Droll screams before eying Goltan in mock shock.

Snap!!{Sfx} Ayaseh could be seen scowling with gritted teeth.

"Oh Oh... you just had to mention her name?" Droll spoke apprehensively but he couldn't hide the excitement within his eyes.

"Seriously... it's been 600 years!" Bolten defended before changing topic, "anyway I think his dead" he said while pointing at Alex in the projection.

"I don't know why he didn't just run away?" Carx chimed.

Bolten looked at this fellow with a sneer, "Like you always do?".

"T-a-c-t-i-c-a-l retreat..." Carx spelled without even flinching while everyone g.r.o.a.n.e.d in response.

Droll stated flatly before tossing something at the scribbling Neah who grunted and turned the other before scribbling away once again. "It's interesting how you do that all the time"

"Was it 500 years ago, or was it 700 years ago? Bolten tried to remind them of an incident, "if he hadn't run away, perhaps we would still be in control of the central Mana Node in the now kingdom 'Eudaraime', I lost a precious champion that Day"

"Good riddance to that Pillock" Horjen blurted out suddenly before covering her mouth with her hand. "I'm sorry, my condolences".

"Anyway, Ayaseh... Dear, I don't think he has much time left". Horjen spoke casually while looking at the screen.

Suddenly Goltan stood up abruptly while pointing at the screen, unable to form words at this point but everyone followed his line of sight.

On the projection, Alger't had unleashed his full power.

"to think, he had amassed that much power!!" Horjen, this Goddess of mystery was the first to recover.

"When did he start serving, the world eater?" Carx was unable to stay calm, just thinking about that monstrosity returning, made him feel like running away.

And then a person enters the room. The man or Shadow kneeled. a messenger!.

"speak" Ayaseh said

The messenger was about to reply when from the distance a booming voice came, "It's time you lot select your champions or it would be seen as you lot ignoring the treaty."

"Brat! where are your manners." Bolten roared, his Council robe swayed furiously, power emanated from him, and sparks of lightning can be seen dancing on his fingertips.

But no response came... only silence.

"the Nerve..." Droll clicked his tongue, even he was upset at this action. He had just been about to peer at Neah's scribblings, hoping to be enlightened again but the young buffoon startled the alchemist.

"To think a lesser God, can act arrogantly towards us now" Carx muttered.

"Don't worry, I dont think he'd be acting like that for a while..." Ayaseh said cryptically but her face didn't show any emotions after all the messenger wasn't wrong.

AMOGRID and Zan even though they are allies, they also have been conflict. presently Zan were playing the neutral party for the upcoming war against the Ragol and the Von'd.

'just me huh?' Ayaseh thought with a momentary frown.

"They are neutral in this matter they said, but why do they even seem more anxious than we are." Droll complained.

While they have non-aggression treaty with Von'd, and they both enjoyed peace for the last 400 years, till Ragol started acting up again, not like they were the ones who caused it.

"You need to choose someone, Ayaseh" Horjen advised.

"You don't have to remind me "Ayaseh said annoyed as the shadows squirmed furiously as wails cried out from everywhere. Horjen just sighed.

"Imm.a.t.u.r.e as always despite being the oldest" Goltan mused. Then he said "Recently I discovered an interesting person or should I say magic beast, may...' Ayaseh held up her hand.

"I understand." she said gritting her teeth and pale in her face, shadows continued to groan. For some reason she was extremely unwilling, perhaps because she felt that Alex was a key to understand herself, or because she felt they were related somehow. But with the way things are now, she can't help unless he prayed. If she moved on her own, it most definitely would be used as an excuse to attack, starting the war early.

Suddenly, "WHAT!!???" Goltan exclaimed again, in the projection, Alger't was performing a large summoning with too much Divine mana than he should have presently.

But what really shocked everyone was what followed later, All his Divine mana was seized mysteriously and the village began to change.

"Hahaha he did it again!" Ayaseh laughed out loud as a grin was etched on her face.

Everyone subconsciously turned to her with a look that said 'explain'.

"Fine, this is why I'm so interested in him being my champion" She said as she adjusted in her seat.

"He seems to be able to directly use Divine mana" She says.

"we can see that already!" Droll deadpanned.

"Let me finish!" Her Voice distorted as she eyed This embodiment of mischief who suddenly flashed behind Neah.

Bolten watched this with contempt...

"Lemme start with this, How do you think Ragol was able to become an Archgod at the same level as me without being like me?".

Everyone kept looking at each other but no one had an idea, it had always been a mystery.

"I believe, like me who appeared to govern the Abyss and rule darkness, there was another who was to govern the light". Ayaseh continued while everyone Nodded in agreement, most of them had this suspicion but had no way to confirm it.

"when I met him, I couldn't read his soul, it was chaotic and fragmented, he had no memories to booth... Obviously had been tampered with, but he was able to remember me." Ayaseh narrated as she stood up from the throne.

"He remembered you?" Horjen asked.

"Yes..., you know no mortal knows off my real name but he did". She stated with a tinge of joy at the end but no one noticed, not even she.

"And for reasons unknown, I had always felt a connection with him before I began watching him..."

"So you suspect, that he must have been the one to govern the light" Goltan seemed to have come to an understanding.

"But Ragol had somehow stolen his divinity and power?!" Bolten shouted while slamming his fist on the table, his eyes wide open in fury.

"Ragol's a theif, hahahaha...to think the God who apparently stands for righteousness, was a theif all along! hahahahahaha, Rich, simply Rich" Droll laughed while rolling on the black marbled floor.

"Calm down, we are still speculating" Carx worriedly said.

"how did you become a God with your nature?" Bolten couldn't help asking this elven God.

"I lived long enough?" He counter asked.

"I think that's why he has been rejecting you!" Neah spoke for the second time since the beginning of this gathering before going back to scribbling.

"Yes I agree, if it were me I'd do the same" Horjen could only agree.

"What do we do then? I feel that we need him somehow" Ayaseh said with an annoyed.

"Curses!! Did Ragol do something to the sun again?! how come she's so expressive today?! ugh!!" Droll mindlessly said but was hit by a black tentacle made of shadows. it literally smacked him in the face, knocking him off his seat.

No one seemed to have noticed as they continued to discuss, before Ayaseh said," I Know what to do..." disappearing from sight.

"Perfect! just enough!" Alex made bee line into the new town gates. He pulled out a card from his inventory and crushed it, Mana surged to the center of the town and a humming blue Orb sat on a platform before releasing the man outward with flare, creating a barrier between the town and the outside world.

The quest had long been completed but he didn't see anything else happening to the Lich, "Could it be that the system had been wrong?".

He looked at the notification again,

[Hidden quest completed!..."Touching the threads of fate".]

Nothing there could save him from this situation, it's only a matter of time before the Lich figure out that there's something off. In fact he was pretty sure that the Lich really wanted to take down this place for some reason.

"Do I really have to beg someone for my life in this life as well?" Alex muttered as he pushed back the memory that had tried to surface.

It was then he felt it as his head whipped towards the temple in the distance.

[Ding!]

[Goddess Ayaseh has arrived!]...
