"Excuse me, are you Mr. Moretti? Good morning! How was your journey?" Astrid Starcrest greeted him, holding a cardboard sign with his name, catching his attention.

"Oh, yes, the journey was fine, just a bit uncomfortable. But who might you be? You don't seem to be young Miss from the Lumara family," Gabriel replied, turning towards her, unable to recognize her.

Gabriel had seen a photo of the young miss from the Lumara family, and he was familiar with their bright and just presence.

However, the lady in front of him didn't exude the same aura, making him certain she wasn't from the Lumara family.

"No, I am not from the Lumara family. I am Astrid Starcrest, but I've cut ties with the Starcrest family, so just call me Astrid now!" Astrid said with a slight smile, not sounding sad at all.

Gabriel noticed a hint of happiness in Astrid's tone when she mentioned cutting ties with the Starcrest family, but he didn't inquire further.

"Alright, young lady, please escort me to th

    ............"Ptthh...what bad luck. I need to check on Astrid, wasn't she on that same highway!" Aarav spat out the drink from his mouth onto the table in shock, reaching for his smartphone immediately.He felt a surge of worry for Astrid's safety, imagining the worst-case scenarios in his head."My Lord, someone just arrived. I will go see who it is!" Eina said, hearing the screeching of car tires as she hurried towards the entrance of the mansion gate to see who had returned.She was also anxious about Astrid's safety, but as she reached the gate, her worries vanished when she saw Astrid standing there without a scratch on her body, dressed immaculately."Welcome back, Lady Astrid. And welcome, dear guest, to the humble abode of our Lord!" Eina greeted Astrid with a warm smile before turning to the guest, extending the same warm welcome."I am back, Eina. Could you please escort our guest in first?" Astrid nodded with a smile, gesturing towards Cardinal Gabriel Moretti as she aske

    ............"My Lord, your grandfather, Mr. Mark Veridian, was a respected Bishop in the Sacred Temple whom our Pope knew and trusted greatly. That's also the reason why this amulet was entrusted to him to find the Lord Heir," Gabriel Moretti replied, recalling memories of Aarav's grandfather."So he really had an important position! Here I thought he was just bragging about sitting with country leaders," Aarav muttered, recalling something his grandfather used to mention when he was just three years old.As he grew up, Aarav thought his grandfather was just trying to act cool in front of him. Now, hearing it from Cardinal Gabriel himself, Aarav realized his grandfather was truly a great figure.But then came another question: why did his grandfather go missing one day, and why did Aarav suspect his parents' death wasn't accidental?"Care to explain, Cardinal Gabriel? Why did my grandfather suddenly disappear one day?" Aarav asked, giving him a questioning look."Bishop Veridian, tr

    ............"My Lord, I'm sorry, but could you pick us up? There's been an accident with our car..." Phia's voice sounded strange, and Aarav couldn't quite figure out why.Nonetheless, he felt a surge of concern upon hearing the word 'accident.'"Yes, I'll be right there. Don't worry, stay where you are," Aarav reassured her before gesturing to Astrid for the keys. Then he hurriedly dashed outside the mansion to retrieve the car.A moment later, Aarav arrived at the address Phia had sent.It was a quiet corner of the area, and since the main street was busy, Phia decided to take a shortcut through an alley. Unfortunately, she didn't realize there was a problem with the alley.Her car got stuck in a hole, and there was nobody around to ask for help. Worried that they would be stuck there, Phia called Aarav to pick them up.Aarav had been concerned when he received Phia's call, fearing something had happened."Huh...what's going on?" Aarav stepped out of his car and entered the alley,

    ............"Sigh...young man, if you're trying to be sneaky and make a surprise attack successful, don't release your bloodlust," Aarav sighed as he landed just beside a young man wearing a black full suit, who had been aiming his gun towards Phia and the others.His words startled the young man, causing him to jump back like a mouse seeing a cat."How did you get here...this...this...impossible! You were just down there...how?" The young man's brain seemed to short-circuit upon seeing Aarav's face, unable to comprehend how he had arrived on the rooftop just seconds after being down in the alley."I don't have time for your brain damage...you...!" Aarav grew annoyed before instantly appearing in front of the young man, his leg connecting with the young man's cheek in a swift axe kick."Bam...Thud!" The kick landed with force, knocking the young man down and causing the rooftop to cave in slightly beneath him. Aarav gave him a subtle glance before leaving the scene.Climbing back d

    ............In a certain village, "Waaaa....!"The sound of a child crying echoed through a small cottage, prompting two people working outside to rush indoors in concern."What's wrong, son? Why are you crying?" the mother asked anxiously as she approached her child."Oh no, he has a high fever. Quickly, lay him down and bring me cold water and a clean cloth!" the father exclaimed, feeling the warmth radiating from his son's forehead.Despite the father's efforts to cool him down with cold water, the child's cries persisted."Can you stay with him? I'll go get Grandpa," the father said hurriedly before darting outside to fetch the elderly man."It's okay, sweetheart, don't cry. You'll feel better soon," the mother reassured her child, but his tears showed no sign of stopping.Shortly after, the father returned with the old man."Grandpa, please see what's wrong with our child," the father implored, gesturing towards their sick son."Hmm, let me check," the old man said, taking the

You may be confused or curious about who I am, and some of you may be anxious to cure your loved ones. But don't worry, everything will be alright," Aarav reassured them, his voice soothing and commanding their attention.The crowd listened intently, feeling a sense of security and comfort as if they were being embraced by a mother's warmth."I know it may be hard to believe, but God is real. He watches over us, keeping track of our deeds and granting us what we deserve. Today, I will show you a real miracle bestowed upon me by the God Elandor himself!"Aarav expected some reaction from the crowd, but to his surprise, no on

    ............Before they left, he instructed Archbishop Deniel to hold a gathering like today's every day at the same time and to increase the number of participants.As word spread from mouth to mouth, the brilliance of God Elandor became the talk of the villagers and town folks.The Archbishop doubled his efforts in transportation, but it still wasn't enough for the enthusiastic villagers who wanted to witness miracles and have their family members treated for free.Aarav became known by many grand names among the villagers and town folks, like Divine Lord, The Man Closest to God, and The Man Who Creates Miracles.The next few days were hectic for the church as the numbers increased to 1000. Even though the Archbishop was happy to see new loyal believers with unwavering faith in God Elandor, the church personnel weren't enough to keep everything in order.He called all the priests and the other two bishops, but even then, they weren't able to support their Lord Heir to lessen the

Aarav stood with his sister Aria in front of Brook University of Talents, encouraging her as she was getting nervous before the admission test."Alright, let's go, young Miss. We don't want to be late!" Phia urged Aria, pulling her along as it was already time."Aria seems to lose confidence sometimes, huh? Astrid, do I have any prior commitments?" Aarav asked Astrid, who had become his sort of secretary after seeing him overwork himself."Hmm, no, not at the moment. We can wait for Young Miss at the cafe over there," Astrid replied, motioning towards a cafe across the street from the university."Chim... Welcome, dear customers! What can I do for you?" As they stepped into the cafe, a pleasant chime sounded, and a chubby man welcomed them."Get us your best coffee, please," Astrid requested, gesturing towards the chubby man who nodded and

Emilia asked in a serious tone, hearing that Aria was familiar with the attackers."Yes... these are the same people who attacked Elandor's domain a while back. And I am pretty sure you can guess whose forces these are," Aria said with a contemplative look before she gave a glance at Emilia, who seemed to understand what Aria was trying to point out."I know... looks like we can’t overlook it any longer. Lady Aria, may I request you to get reinforcements, as I am not sure about the extent of the destruction these forces can cause in our land?" Emilia nodded, her face turning even graver before she bowed towards Aria and made her request."Please, you don't have to request it from me. I will help you either way, as it's also a threat to our land. While I go and gather reinforcements, can you hold on for a while?"

But we don’t just need high spirits—we need unity. We need all of you to step forward together, to face this reality as one and bring about a bright future.”His voice was filled with fervor, carrying a weight that seemed to stir the very air around them.

    310. Preparing For Fight Ahead

    ............A sudden, overwhelming pressure exploded from the throne, sending him hurtling through the air and crashing into one of the tree’s thick branches outside the temple."Cough, cough...!!" The High Prophet spat blood but slowly made his way back into the temple. Kneeling once again, he showed no anger or frustration at being injured—only trembling fear in the face of the figure’s fury on the throne.Sylas’s eyes, glowing with an unnatural light, cut through the darkness as he sat motionless on the throne, his presence suffocating. The High Prophet of Pestilence didn’t dare lift his head. The air around them was thick with the stench of rot and corruption, heavy with a crushing pressure.“Elandor’s Heir... and the Heir of Astraia,” Sylas muttered, his voice filled with disdain. “How dare she interfere in my plans?”His words echoed, each one pressing down harder on the High Prophet. Silence followed, broken only by the distant howling wind outside the temple. The elder remai

    ............“Thank you,” Aria replied, her movements graceful as she took a seat across from him. Between them stood a small circular table, with a basket of snacks and fruit placed in the center, adding a touch of warmth to the room’s otherwise solemn atmosphere."Mr. Aarav, what are your plans regarding the cultists? I’m certain they won’t stop invading this continent and causing chaos," Aria asked, sitting back in a relaxed position, her eyes steady on him.Aarav sighed, his tone dim and unconfident. "What can I do alone? Even with the Crystal Healing Organization backing me, I’m not confident in facing those lunatic cultists." He spoke with a heaviness, aware of the overwhelming power he had witnessed in their last battle.He knew his own limitations. The devastation left by the cultists was a harsh reminder. Even Pope Aurelius, with all his influence, wouldn’t be enough to turn the tide. Aarav understood that unless he reached the fourth stage, the *Virtuoso of Vitality*, he wo

    ............"Ah... thank you! And how should I address you?" Aarav quickly snapped out of his daze, expressing his gratitude before asking with a respectful tone."Aria... Heir to the Goddess of Stars, Astraia. It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Heir..." Aria smiled, her face radiant like a flower blooming under the soft glow of moonlight. The sight made Aarav's heart race uncontrollably."Aarav... it's just Aarav, Miss Aria. Please, don't be so formal; it makes me feel uncomfortable." He interrupted her before she could speak too respectfully again, gently requesting that she call him by his name instead.Aarav didn’t want to come off like some spoiled young master, or as if they were stuck in some ancient civilization that hadn’t learned how to speak casually about simple things."Oh... alright, Mr. Aarav." Aria seemed a little surprised but then covered her mouth and chuckled. "Fufu...You don’t seem to like the ancient etiquette, do you?"Her soft laughter filled the air, the warm

    ............"Enough of this!" One of the cultists yelled, raising his hand into the air. A dark aura began swirling around him, corrupting the very energy in the atmosphere. The others followed, channeling the same malevolent force, preparing for a combined attack.Aarav could feel the shift—their power was immense. He flinched, sensing the ominous energy closing in around him."You think that’ll be enough to get rid of me?" Aarav’s voice cut through the tension. "You’ve forgotten who you're dealing with."As the dark energy swirled and gathered, Aarav took a deep breath and raised his weapon high. The blade gleamed with a blinding light, and the ground trembled under his feet as his divine power flared to life."Let me show you what true divine power looks like," Aarav declared, his voice steady. With one decisive motion, he shattered the one-use divine tool he carried, instantly replenishing the lost energy within him.And then, with explosive force, he unleashed it."Craaack... B

    ............"Clanngg....Boomnn...!!""Swiish....Bammn...!!""Ahh... Cough... Cough...!" Aarav took another relentless hit, sliding back a few steps before losing his balance and dropping to one knee, blood dripping from his mouth."Hahaha... Elandor's Heir, already broken? I was hoping to play with you some more!" The bald cultist cackled, his words dripping with contempt.Aarav wiped the blood from his lips, smirking. "Feeling smug, huh? It’s just a scratch, nothing worth mentioning." He rose to his feet, his body glowing as the injury healed instantly, as though it never existed.The cultist's eyes widened, then his expression twisted with anger. "Damn it! I forgot Elandor is the God of Healing and Medicine!" Realizing his mistake, fury replaced his shock, and he lunged at Aarav in a blind rage, furious at being humiliated.Aarav's smile turned cold. "Heh, let me show you what else I can do," he muttered under his breath."Swishhh... Whoosh...!!"The cultist attacked wildly, but A
