From the time of the hegemon war until now, there have been countless generations of rulers who have ruled over the Aeth. Each of these rulers had ruled for long terms which can go from thousands of years to tens of thousands of years the only difference being that no matter how long these rulers had been on seats for every generation of new rulers would be crowned together and they will also abdicate the seats of authority together leaving it for new rulers to take over.
From the time of the first rulers till now, there have been exactly 82 rulers who have held control of over the seven seats of authority. This cycle had been broken four hundred years ago when the 83rd ruler of the air seat of authority had crowned and had taken control over the air seat of authority after the disappearance of the previous ruler who was the 82nd ruler of the air seat of authority.
This was only known to all the current rulers because each ruler was linked together. If a single ruler s
Ever since Arran found himself inside this strange place filled with purple clouds and met his parents, it had felt like more than thirty minutes had passed. But Arran could not be sure if that was really true or if his senses were just playing tricks on him.For a while now, Arran had been feeling that his perception of time inside this strange space was skewed. He could not tell if one minute spent in here was actually a minute outside of if it was called differently. Worst of all, Arran had no way to get out of here. He could only turn to his parents to help him out of here.As much as Arran wanted to spend more time here with his parents, he knew that it was not possible to do so. As it was now, Arran could already see his parent's bodies slowly fading and becoming transparent. He knew that he didn't have much longer to spend with them.Their time was almost up.Looking at his parents awkwardly, Arran was surprised by their reaction and what happened
Arran spent some time giving his parents an in-depth explanation of the reality dungeon he had awakened and made sure that they knew about how it worked as well as how it had contributed to raising Arran's current strength. When this was done, both of Arran's parents had pondering expressions on their faces. Arran's father even muttered softly, "So that's how it is... this is quite nifty, if you ask me. How I wish I had something like this myself growing up. It would have been very helpful to me when I was still growing up. At least it would have cut the time I needed to become stronger by more than half the original time. But now, this ability is mostly useless to me." Arran listened to his father's mumblings and looked at him weirdly. Hearing the kind of words Jeremiah spoke, Arran started to wonder exactly how strong his father was. For that matter, Arran was wondering how powerful his mother actually was. For her to be the 83rd ruler of th
Arran had already understood the importance of his reality dungeon, but he was still puzzled about something.What exactly did his reality dungeon have to do with this space?Arran already had a suspicion of his own, but he did not voice it out. Instead, Arran asked his parents this question.When Azalea and Jeremiah heard Arran's question, she shook their heads before Azalea replied, "I don't know if you're really too slow on the upkeep but you should already have a guess as to how this place is related to your reality dungeon. Never the less, let me clarify for you.""This space is exactly a dreamscape space inside your reality gate, the same as your reality dungeon.""Actually, I would say that this space is actually your reality dungeon, only a new area that has been recently unlocked. for some reason, something must have happened to you recently that led to this space being unlocked and you having access to it. As for why I said, it is your re
"First of all, let me say this." Arran's mother, Azalea, started."Your father and I do not have a lot of time left and we will soon disappear from your dreamscape, so there is something we cannot say to you in time. Like right now, you asked us what an information singularity is. but to explain this in-depth so that you will understand clearly would take too much time, so we can't do that for you. Fortunately, you don't really need us to explain it to you before you can understand what an information singularity is.""There are plenty of records in the Kingsman Academy. That is where you are currently studying at, right?" Azalea asked Arran as an afterthought.Arran nodded in the affirmative."That's good." Azalea was relieved."Since that's the case, then it's even better. You just have to tell your unit instructor that you want to read up on the available information regarding information singularities. All you have to tell her is that you've al
Arran slowly digested the fact that there was a group of people who were born to be chosen as guardians for the seven artifacts of the Aeth known as apostles, and he was one of them.As apostles, their authority was naturally above that of ordinary chosen and they were more powerful than they were. Being able to use the full power of the seven artifacts, one can imagine the level of power they can achieve with this privilege.Arran could now understand how he was able to borrow the powers of the World Essence Pulse Bracers, even if he had not been chosen. It was because he was already an apostle of the bracers, so naturally; he had the qualifications to do so.Arran no longer dwelled on this topic and simply accepted it as it was. This was not the most bizarre thing he had learned lately, so he was able to quickly accept such things. Besides, this discovery was good for him in all accepts, so what was there not to like.After accepting his identity as an
"I understand how you had arranged for me to appear here, but how does that help me in getting out of here?" After understanding all his parents' arrangements, Arran was still confused as to how he would be able to get out of his own dreamscape. So he had to ask."Well, silly," Arran's mother started."You should have already figured it out by now. Even though your father and I arranged for you to be here, we still couldn't have been able to predict everything that you would experience prior to you coming here. For example, your father and I couldn't have known that the shades would use this as an opportunity to invade or that you would awaken a dreamscape ability. We also couldn't have imagined that you would progress so fast and would accidentally experience an information singularity. This is what led you to your current situation,""In the beginning, when your father and I planned to meet you, we had left a little wisp of our will and consciousness with Lado
"It looks like you have finally realized where you went wrong. Now you should also know what you have to do?" Azalea questioned Arran.Arran nodded his head before replying."I have... it seems like I have been too reliant on you and dad in the past that it has made me lose my independence. When I am faced with problems, I always look to the two of you to resolve them for me. When I am on my own, this is not much of a problem since I am still able to handle most things on my own, but whenever you and dad appear, I start to regress into my old habit of relying on you both. This is a problem and I need to fix it.""That's good. It is good that you understand." Azalea said."Then how are you going to fix this problem of yours?" Azalea eventually asked.Arran kept silent for a while as he went through his thoughts. Finally, after sorting out his thoughts, Arran answered his mother.Instead of immediately telling her how he was going to resolve h
The war between the Shades and the Aeth had already gone into full-blown effect, and both sides were at each other's throats.With the sound of ion pulse cannons and electromagnetic blasters firing, the battle between the Shade invasion troops and the Seven Kings Army was well underway.Ever since the abyss door opened over the ocean of the Aeth planet and the first ships of the Shades breached space to arrive inside the Etherium, more than four hours had already passed. In these four hours, a lot of things had happened in the war.In the first few minutes of the invasion, the Shades had sent a small team of mercenaries and soldiers to serve as a vanguard to invade the various cities of the Aeth and spread panic and fear throughout. Their mission had been to delay the Aeth's response and the deployment of their troops and buy time for the rest of the invasion forces to arrive through the abyss door.Unfortunately, this plan had failed before it could even
