Chapter 341: Power of Ragnar

Withdrawing before the Ceriloat noticed my presence, I made sure to place my crest upon the surface of the lake. The Rune of Teleportation could not be trusted here, and I could not be sure who was watching.

Not stopping for anything, my heart began to tremble at the life I was sensing. Some were hidden, but I could feel the presence of those at the peak of World God bordering Demi-God. Marveling at how such a place was not overrun by these monsters. I flickered by oddly enough, enjoying myself.

Traveling till the sun began to set, I did not bother to stop till I felt the Aura of Tenibrea upon the Night sky. Knowing it was time to rest, I made camp. Night was when I felt the most active, it would always give me strength, but it was also when I felt the sin of Sloth pulling upon my weary bones.

Losing the battle, I rested, allowing Mother to watch me. I finally, for the first time, felt free. Entering a deep slumber that seemed to last a matter of seconds, my eyes opened to searing rays of starlight.

Cursing whoever was the god of light, I arose, peering at the campfire still burning. Throwing dirt to extinguish the flames, I continued my journey of a few days till I finally came upon intelligent life.

They appeared to be human, with Tribal marking covering their bodies. Coming from the bushes, they drew their weapons with heavy vigilance.

"Halt! Who Goes there!" One said, with long braided hair. He was tall, and muscular gripping a trident. Holding me in his sights, his Nascent Soul Energy overflowed within the area to attempt to intimidate.

"Quite aggressive," I stated with caution. Making myself known.

"You speak our tongue!" He said in shock. Oddly enough lowering his weapon.

"I speak every language," I confirmed. Even if I didn't have my real body, that didn't truly change the fact I was still the shadow of a Demon, Devil hybrid. And devils were creatures who spoke the language of all.

"Impossible the Sa'ar would never teach an outsider!" said the woman by his side. Tensing her jaw, my footing slightly changed for any type of surprises that could come.

"Tal, we must kill him!"

"Sela, calm yourself. This would not be the first to know our tongue." Tal hastily said, placing his trident upon Sela's staff, lowering it down. "Outsider, tell us your intentions?"

"I came to find out about Ragnar, the Faded Prince, and how to get to him." I fearlessly told, eyeing the woman, who was secretly fuming. Her heart was overflowing with rage at not who I was but what I represented.

"Ragnar? He is not here. He resides on the Western Isles near Yu'drol." Tal replied, but his heart told a different tale. It was fearful, filled with anxiety similar to the Sela, who was now trembling.

"You seem quite fearful of him. Why is that?"

"Please!" Tal suddenly pleaded, "Stop asking! He knows and see's all. Stop!"

Shocked by their outburst, my gaze suddenly fell upon the skies beginning to darken, resembling the night sky. Taking quick note of the crest of thunder within the heavens, the thoughts of an emblem user appeared within my heart. Narrowing my eyes, the booming echoes of thunder clouded the skies with its majesty, scaring the life of Sa'ar silent.

"LORD RAGNAR, FORGIVE US!" Tal begged, falling to his knees along with Sela.

However, such pleading words fell upon deaf ears when a single pillar of lightning resembling the power of thor but smaller in size smited the duo to ash. Shadow stepping out of the range, I felt the very hairs upon my body being to burn. Without a pause, I rushed to push darkness from my pores to protect myself.

Skidding over the floor from the incredible power, I narrowed my eyes towards the aftermath. An abyss stretching about fifty meters in diameter appeared, revealing absolute darkness within the depths of the deep.

"Now, that was unexpected. So he has an understanding of Karma. Whomever says his name, Ragnar will know, but why didn't that work when Tala said who he was? Oh, I see, it must because we were not on any of the Seven Isles."

Putting things together, I patted myself clean. A little annoyed, I peered towards the heavens, "I wonder if you will be by the side of the twins? Looks like my trial begins here and now." I indifferently muttered to myself.

Opening my palms towards the rising souls, I took them to peer deep within them but frowned. Their very ego was all but destroyed, leaving nothing to see or learn. Releasing them, I hummed in defeat.

This is going to be tricky. I could make a domain of darkness to hide others from his Karma. But they will not be foolish like Tal and Sela. Maybe I should have tried to defend against that lightning. It was around a level three Dao Comprehension. I could have easily redirected that lighting.

A/N: Level 3 is 30%

"No use spilling over spilt milk. Guess gathering information will be a little more complicated. But someone must have seen that lightning strike." I said, leaping upon a tree. Hiding my presence, I patiently waited for someone to come looking. Something that took no time at all.

Sensing a sizeable squat rush towards, my direction I paid close attention towards the man with a giant wolf shape totem upon his chest and back. They appeared to be Skoll, who chased the sun, and Hati, who chased the moon.

Deliberating whether Sa'ar was their domain, as I had not heard or seen from them since I saw that man eric at my auction house. Although I am sure, he is dead. His last name, if I am recalling correctly, was Skoll.

"Brandr, do you sense anything?" the Large man with the crest of Skoll and Hati asked in a heavy tone.

"Nothing. It's like Ragnar struck them down without any warning. I can feel Tal and Sela's aura but no one else's. What of you, Snorri?" He said towards the man that held my interest.

However, his words had me pondering. He said Ragnar's name, but nothing occurred. Does that mean that context is important?"

"No, but do not say his name till we figure this out. I would like to know what is going on. I am sure the chief will be saddened to learn of this news. Too many have already died." Siad Snorri. " The rest of you fan out and search for anyone. Maybe they will be of help."
