Chapter 55: Morpheus Somnus(2)

AT THE TOP OF THE SACRED TREE

Currently, 8 people are present: Morpheus, Unia, Zwain, Karina, Adelphus, Arlington, Istan and Yavanna.

MORPHEUS' POV:-

"So my friend here, before I talk with others. How about you give me at least one reason not to kill you?" I speak as my voice once again turns emotionless. I look at him waiting for an answer as

-Should I turn your emotions back off. You look like you will give him the most painful death possible.

My brain, let's just call him Dark, calls me out. Hmmm? I am losing control, huh? Well, looks like Leena's emotions are still within me.

'Dark, flush them out completely' I give a command at which a refreshing sensation enters my body clearing and calming my mind. This should have been done as soon as I cured her, I guess. Well...whatever. As I am busy thinking a voice comes

"What do you want from me? What is it that I can do so that you won't kill me?" Answers Arlington as he looks at me with terrified eyes. Now, that's what I believe is called smart. No threats, no question, direct to the point. For that reason, I might just leave you alone. Still, no opportunities should be left alone so,

"Nothing as of yet, just let me control a few of your memories for now," I speak with a bright smile on my face. This solves so many things. Today really is a fruitful day. My hand moves closer to his head at which he takes a few steps back.

"What are you trying to do? What are you going to do with me?" He asks as his terror filled eyes stares at my face.

"Tsk..and here I thought you were smart. I won't speak as much but let me phrase it all in one sentence,' I can kill you before you can blink,' you understand that?" I ask him with a slightly irritated voice, observing his expression it doesn't look like he is listening. He raises his hand

-Whoosh

And launches a few magic attacks at me.

-Time Stop-

I take out my dagger and absorb the attack.

-Time Start-

He continuously attacks me without stopping. Ummm? It's getting annoying. Should I kill him? Nope...Let's... use him as much as we can. He looks like a high mage and that symbol on his robe looks from Skapia. Maybe he is a Royal Mage from Skapia Kingdom or something.

-Time Stop-

'I was going to go easy on you but looks like none of us agrees on that,' I think as I stop time and knock him unconscious. Then I look at his face...clearly he has lost it. Sigh...I use my dagger to draw circles on his forehead. Then I draw a few more circles on his different acupoints creating an artificial channel in his body. Since I probably can't erase your memories without your consent, let me take over your body for that. Channelling my mana into his body I use those artificial channels to look into his memories. Sigh...it only shows recent memories...he too huh?... Just how many Soul Contracts did that bastard make. Well, let me remove this or lest it hinders my future.

Slowly, removing the soul contract and replacing it with an artificial contract I channel all the mana from my dagger into it. I also remove the recent memories or rather those after which Unia appeared. Well...that does that.

-Time Start-

His body falls on the ice platform. The others look at me with a complicated expression. I look at Zwain and throw a beautiful smile at him at which he flinches.

"Zwain and the others, before I-

-Whooshhhh

Dense refreshing magic flows from the base of the tree covering all of Eslaine and the tree itself. That's fast. Vitality starts returning to the tree. The burnt and frozen areas turn back green.

'Honestly, this is too fast even if all 4 of them work together unless...' a smile forms on my face as I realise what happened down there. The other guys on the top are totally shocked by the sudden change.

------------

AT THE CORE OF THE THE SACRED TREE:-

White light surrounds the centre of the boy as he heals the core.

ROBIN'S POV:-

We are witnessing a miracle. There is no other way to explain this phenomenon. The kid...he is gaining his first enlightenment...he is gaining enlightenment at that age...AT THAT AGE. Seriously just what is he? I turn to look at his brother, he is making a complicated expression. Though, the others aren't much different. After all

Phantasos is gaining enlightenment in Light Magic.

Light surrounds him as the tree starts growing, the branches of the core slowly covering him as if embracing him. His eyes are glowing white with slight golden colour. The mana is dancing around him as he raises his hand towards the core. His concentration is at its peak...I...did I ever reach that level in my life?... I couldn't help but compare myself to him.

The tree is gaining its vitality at a rapid rate. Being a Supreme Elf I can communicate with nature itself. Nature and its mana...felt as if they are bowing to the kid in front of me. Just who is he...?

Princess Lia and others are looking at him then slowly a smile forms on everyone's face...even me...yeah....with this one of the two major problems of Eslaine...are solved. A chuckle escapes my mouth as I observe him,

'Looks like we are in his debt now.'

-------

IN ALFHEIM:-

"Looks like someone is helping us," the Elf King speaks as he looks in the direction of Eslaine. A refreshing mana surge can be felt coming from that direction. A smile forms on his face as he thinks that.

"Is that so? Looks like we are going to have a guest soon. We better prepare properly," the Elf Queen speaks as she looks at the King. A relaxed smile forms on her face.

"Looks like a storm has arrived in Eslaine, call Karina, I want to know everything that is going there. Especially about the entity that is causing such a surge," the Human King speaks as he senses a sudden mana wave coming from Eslaine.

"Yes, your Highness," the Royal Mage, Defender of Truth; Alethia answers.

---------

BACK ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF ESLAINE:

LERAYE'S POV:-

This...is really something. I wonder who is responsible for this? He should be strong, right? Let's fight him...but first, let's regroup with the leader. Scanning my surrounding I try to search for him,

'Where is he? Where is he? Where? Where? Ah! There you are!' I look up at the top of the Sacred Tree. He is standing with other people there. They look really strong too. 'Should I fight them? Maybe...' thinking that I jump straight over to that position.

-hupp

Aaaannnndddd

-Thud

I reach in front of them. There are a lot of new faces here. I bow to them then I look at Morpheus.

"Hey, leader! Finished the work," I speak with a smile on my face. Morpheus looks at me with an observing expression before speaking, "bring his head, he must have quite a bounty on the black market."

Oops! Lemme just go and bring it . I vanish to that guy's dead body, cut his head and bring it back to Morpheus. After showing it to him I put it in my dimension pocket. That sums up my work. I look at him again

"Do you know who is responsible for that sudden outburst? " I ask him, clearly all the odd things are more or less connected to him in Eslaine, so it won't be surprising to see another thing similar to that.

He looks at me with a smile before proudly speaking," he is my brother, Phantasos Somnus."

'Huh? There is another monster similar to you?' A grin forms on my face as I think about the future. I can't help but think of the interesting person he would be. The others look...really shocked at this point except for Unia and Zwain that is. Maybe they didn't expect something like this.

Hmmm? The surge seems to getting lesser now. I look at Morpheus he seems to feel the same.

"I will be back in a moment," he speaks as he vanishes from that point. Since I have an idea where he might be going, I'll join him too. Can't miss something as important as this. The others seem to have a similar idea so everyone left to reach the core of the Sacred Tree.

----

MORPHEUS POV:-

I reach near the core of the Sacred Tree where everyone was observing Corey. Soon, Zwain, Leraye and others joined us too. They had a baffled expression as they looked at Corey. Looks like they didn't expect something like this. Well, the fact that a child is responsible for this would be the last thought in their mind. But shouldn't they have some expectations after looking at me or did they simply rule me out as some monster? Well...whatever let's help Corey out. There might not even be another chance like this.

I move towards Corey. The others turn to look at me. Some have a slight shock on their face while others are simply observing me with a serious gaze. Well...this might... probably...shock them. I reach closer to him and raise my hand to touch his back.

"You probably can hear me. So follow my command and let me guide mana into you. I will release an enormous amount of mana into you, use everything you can, as much as you can."

Saying that I start unlocking all his Mana circles and also energy stored into the dagger. A smile forms on my face as I think about the outcome.

The 2nd circle unlocks, a burst of mana enters his body. I numb his pain sensation. He doesn't need any distraction like that. Plus I'll use his own mana to heal him and myself too.

Now next circle, the 3rd circle unlocks another burst of mana enters his body. The tree gets healed completely and the surrounding area starts brimming with mana. High mana waves form and flows from the centre of Eslaine towards the outside and reach the outskirts of the city. Everyone in the city starts healing. A grin forms on my face as I open the last circle.

The 4th circle, which had mana filled 4 times the original circle, opens up. A fog of mana forms and flows all around the city and a few tens of kilometres around Eslaine. It gets so dense that it becomes visible to the naked eye. But it also starts suffocating everyone around. Looks like too much mana is not good. In that case,

I take out my dagger and stab him in the centre of the 4 circles. All the mana in the surroundings even those a few kilometres away starts entering into Corey's body. Now, here comes the most important part. Let's get into full concentration. Dark, give me the complete manual control of my body.

-All right.

Taking full-body control of my body I apply mana circuit into all parts of my body. He will need an external channel to use all that mana without getting hurt. So, let's give him the best channel possible. I start circling all the mana into his body after cleaning and diluting it accordingly. All he needs is Light mana. The rest can enter into the circles in his back and also in my dagger. Let's also try creating a mana artifact for him, there is probably enough around to give him an excellent one. Damn! This is getting exciting...a smile forms on my face as I get engrossed in the process.

-----------

IN ROYAL CASTLE OF SOL KINGDOM:-

The King stands up as he looks in the direction of Eslaine.

"Alethia, we are leaving immediately. As fast as possible," the King speaks with a serious expression.

Alethia can only nod as she looks in the same direction with slight bewilderment in her eyes.

-----------

IN ALFHEIM:-

"We are leaving immediately, this isn't normal, no matter how I see it. This is an anomaly that can't be ignored," The Elven King speaks with a serious face.
