Chapter 431: Meeting Torvas Again

“The Origin Pantheon? What’s that?” Naturally, the two of them had no clue as to what the Origin Pantheon was. After all, only Felix and the others knew that he had gained control over the element of Lesser Origin. With that in mind, Aurus patiently explained everything related to the Origin Pantheon, from the part where he planned to obtain the element to where he had obtained control over it. Of course, he omitted quite a lot of superficial elements to it, only telling them the information that they really need to know.

“So, in short, Lesser Origin is an element that’s made up of four elements and gives you access to a place where other people with control over that same element congregate,” Horell said after Aurus finished explaining, to which the latter replied with a shrug of his shoulders, “More or less.”

“What are you going to do there, though?” Herellia asked soon after, to which Aurus replied, “I’m going to meet up with a person that actually predicted what would happen to Aurus. Naturally, I was skeptical at first… but now that it happened, it seems like it’s time for me to talk with that person.”

Hearing that he would meet up with the person that predicted everything that happened to the actual Aurus, Herellia and Horell could not help but become silent from the shock they felt. Unsurprisingly, not long after, the two of them asked, “Can we both come with you?”

“Unfortunately, only those that have control over the Lesser Origin or any of its variants can enter it,” Aurus replied, shaking his head in response. “However, I’ll tell you how it goes once I get back from the place. It won’t take long.”

With that, the three of them parted ways as Herellia and Horell returned to help out in the development of the town, focusing on the project related to creating an academy in the town. As for Aurus, with his increased stats, he was able to quickly leave the town’s walls with the help of his movement speed boosting spells and skills, only stopping after he was around 10 kilometers away from town.

Looking around to make sure that there was no one watching or tailing him, Aurus eventually let out a sigh of relief as he commanded the system to let him enter the Origin Pantheon. In response, Aurus’s body disappeared from where he stood in an instant, eventually ending up in a place that he had now become familiar with.

“Welcome to the Origin Pantheon, newcomer!” a person said as Aurus had appeared in the center of the place where people would first arrive. Looking around to see that Cardis wasn’t the one greeting the newcomers, he went closer to the man that greeted him and asked, “Do you know where Cardis is?”

“Oh? You know Cardis?” The man was surprised to hear such a familiar name to him being spoken out of the mouth of who he first thought was a newcomer. Realizing that the man that asked him had probably already been here a few times, the man nodded and told Aurus, “He’s probably at the Origin Dens right now. Coincidentally, there’s only a couple of minutes until I have to switch shifts with him. If you’d like, you could wait here until he arrives.”

“Sure, I’d be fine with that.” Aurus nodded in response, deciding to sit near the stairs as he did not want to be a hindrance to the newcomers that actually arrived. Eventually, a few minutes passed by, and soon, a man that Aurus was very familiar with had appeared in his field of vision as the former walked up the stairs, prompting Aurus to stand up with a smile and say, “Cardis! Long time no see!”

“Hmm?” Hearing his name being called, Cardis could not help but look at the origin of the sound, noticing a man looking at him with a smile on his face. Quickly sensing the aura surrounding the man, it did not take too long for him to realize who had just greeted him, responding back with great glee. “Oh, Argentum! It’s you! Definitely long time no see!”

“Argentum? Where have I heard that before…” the man that answered Aurus’s question from before could not help but mutter, only to finally realize where he had heard it as he pointed at Aurus and shouted, “Ah! You’re the Origin Sage!”

“Shh…” Both Aurus and Cardis quickly shushed the man, knowing very well the aftereffects of saying something like that all of a sudden. Unfortunately, before they could fully silence the man from saying anything else, a few people started to flock towards the Origin Pantheon as they heard the man say those words.

Letting out a light sigh, Cardis looked at Aurus with a wry smile before asking, “Since it’s partly my fault, how about I make up for it by taking you to the place where you want to go? Think of me as your personal bodyguard. Hahaha!”

Chuckling in response to his words, Aurus nodded and said, “Since you’re offering, then it would be rude for me to decline. Off to the Origin Dens we go!”

“Origin Dens, eh? You got it!” Cardis said in response before looking at the man that was previously greeting the newcomers of the Origin Pantheon, asking him, “You don’t mind keeping guard over the pantheon for a bit more, right? Altamir?”

Altamir, the man who shouted Aurus’s title out loud, wryly smiled in response, telling Cardis, “Fine, fine, fine. I’ll keep guard for a bit longer. But you better come back as soon as possible, okay?”

“No promises!” Cardis said with a cackle as he unleashed all of his power, quickly dashing past the crowd of people that was starting to head up the stairs leading the Origin Pantheon. Naturally, those people noticed the blur that quickly left the Origin Pantheon, getting a hunch that the Origin Sage was that blur. However, before they could even start to follow it, the blur quickly disappeared from this field of vision, prompting them to give up on chasing him as they slowly returned to where they previously were.

As for Cardis and Aurus, they decided to hold a conversation as they made their way to the Origin Dens, wanting to catch up on what they’ve missed.

“Something like that actually happened in Seraph Kingdom?” Cardis could not believe what he was listening. “To think two Transcendents were actually that close to facing off against each other… it’s quite surreal.”

“Yeah, even I was surprised when I saw it unfold in front of my very eyes,” Aurus said in response. “Ah, right. I almost forgot to tell you that I go by the name Aurus from now on.”

“Alright, I’ll keep that in mind,” Cardis nodded after he heard that. “Anything else of great significance I should take note of in the world of Erudinia?”

“Well, the being called The Great Calamity has been captured, so there’s that,” Aurus told him. “In any case, that’s all I have. How about you, Cardis? Did anything interesting happen in the Origin Pantheon while I was away?”

“Hmm…” Cardis pondered in silence for a bit before eventually replying, “There was this time where someone actually got to comprehend the Origin to Torvas’s level while you were gone. However, no one has reached your level of comprehension yet.”

“Oh? Now that’s unexpected.” Aurus raised his eyebrows in response. “Does anyone know who that person might be?”

Shaking his head in response, Cardis told him, “Unfortunately, no one knows his name. At most, we only know that he comes from the Maerr-viki Continent, just like you.”

“Ah. We’re already here,” he said not long after, stopping in front of Torvas’s house. Seeing Aurus’s confused expression, Cardis said with a smile, “The only reason why you’d head to the Origin Dens is to find Torvas, right?”

With his intent quickly figured out, Aurus could not help but chuckle, saying, “Thanks for giving me a lift, Cardis.”

“Anytime.” After saying that, Cardis quickly left the premises, allowing Aurus to come forward and knock on the door of the house in front of him. Not long after, a person opened the door, asking, “Who is it?”

“It’s me. Argentum,” Aurus said in response, prompting the person to stand in place for a bit before letting out a sigh. Gesturing for Aurus to head inside, he then told him, “I had a feeling you’d come here sooner or later. Come in.”

With that, Aurus entered Torvas’s house once more, sitting down on the sofa nearby as Torvas asked him, “What would you like to drink?”

“Do you have any strawberry juice?” Aurus asked, to which Torvas chuckled as he told him, “I knew you’d say that. Fortunately, I just made a pitcher full of strawberry juice sometime ago.”

Sometime later, Torvas brought a couple of glasses, as well as the pitcher of strawberry juice in front of Aurus, pouring both of them a glass. Drinking a bit from the glass he poured himself, Torvas looked at Aurus with a solemn expression, asking, “So, what happened?”

“Remember the prophecies you gave me back then?” Aurus asked, swirling the strawberry juice in his glass. “Well, the first one happened.”

“I figured as much.” Torvas wryly smiled in response, scratching his head as he told Aurus, “If you’ve come here to ask me if there’s a way to resolve the situation, it’s futile. Unfortunately, my abilities don’t extend that far.”

“I had a feeling you’d say that,” Aurus said in response, wryly smiling as well. After that, a silence permeated between the two, with the only sound being the sips they took from the glasses of strawberry juice they had. However, Aurus eventually broke the silence, saying, “I won’t ask anything related to the prophecies for now. Instead, I want to ask something else.”

“As long as I can answer it, I’m all ears,” Torvas said, nodding.

“How did you obtain those prophecies in the first place?” Aurus asked soon after, making Torvas turn silent as a hint of hesitation could be seen on his face. Though, this hesitation disappeared not long after as he let out a soft sigh, saying, “Well, you’ll eventually find this out sooner or later as long as you ask the right people. It won’t hurt for you to know this earlier than usual.”

With that, a serious expression appeared on Torvas’s face as he asked Aurus, “You know very well that the minimum requirement to enter the Origin Pantheon is to have control over Lesser Origin, right?”

“Yeah? What about it?” Aurus said in response.

“Well, what I have control over is a variant of the usual Lesser Origin we know,” Torvas replied.

“To be more specific, Lesser Temporal Origin.”
