Chapter 290: Memory lane(5).
“He survived, it seems,” Oasis smirked as he took a few slow steps toward the table, his boots clinking softly on the polished wooden floor of the inn.Venak stood, his eyes narrowing as he observed the tension in the room. “Young Master… you know him?”Oasis nodded calmly, gaze locked on the slouching brute surrounded by wine and women. “This bully? Yeah. I know him very well.”Around them, murmurs rippled like a cold wind through the inn.But the whispers weren't in support—they were murmurs of pity for Oasis and his companions.Bozer was a name that struck hesitation in many hearts around these parts. To anger him was considered foolish. Taboo, even."What do we do with them?” Venak asked, his voice low and steady.Oasis turned to him slightly, that calm smile never leaving his lips. “Don’t worry. Just sit down, enjoy the show... and take notes on how stray beasts are punished.”“You dare call this Bozer a stray beast?” Bozer snarled still slouched in his seat, his eyes hazy with w
Chapter 289: Memory lane(4).
“Mmh… fascinating,” Oasis murmured, retracting his hand from the massive globe of sealed energy.As the ripple of mana quieted, a thoughtful light shimmered in his azure eyes.“This… this isn’t just raw power. There’s insight… memories… a portion of Master Elias’s magical knowledge woven into it.”Oasis took a step back and exhaled slowly, gazing into the swirling power.“So a mage can divide their strength to such magnitude… truly extraordinary.”His mind flickered back to the scroll, a vivid account of Master Elias’s life that he had studied closely.After the infamous War of Enlightenment, Elias had been tainted by demonic mana, a creeping curse that began to erode his Mana heart and conscious realm.To resist its spread and preserve his strength, Elias had used an ancient magical method known as the Triform Severance Method, a forbidden technique of Runic Spirit Division. He had coined this sealed room and the method used within it "The First Anchor of Purity."Using the Triform

The chamber shimmered gently, the air humming with latent power.Thin veins of glowing mana pulsed across the floor like living lines of energy, reacting to jade's presence.As he set the jade token into place, a soft vibration rippled through the room.Instantly, a translucent barrier of protective mana bloomed outward, forming a dome around the room to isolate it from the outside.With a deep mechanical groan, the floor split open, parting in two symmetrical arcs as if awakening from a deep slumber.A cool, glowing light emerged from beneath.A hidden staircase spiraled downward—carved with ancient runes, each glowing faintly in the presence of Oasis’s mana.Without hesitation, Oasis stepped forward and descended.As he moved, a wisp of his mana trailed with each step, activating the mana lamps along the walls.As if called to life by his presence, the mana lamps along the stone walls flared awake one by one, casting a soft glow that illuminated the path downward.The air grew dense

The warm, golden light of the mana-lamps spilled across the walls, casting a soft glow over the modest but neatly-kept interior.The walls were lined with polished oak panels, and a worn table sat at the center of the room where Oasis and the man took their seats.The space felt lived in but quiet—too quiet. Oasis could tell instinctively that no other life dwelled in the house aside from the two of them.“Lad, it’s fascinating,” the man said, breaking the silence and leaning back in his chair. “The scrawny kid we pulled out of the river that day has grown like this.""And without a doubt, you seem strong, stronger than most even. Judging from your clothes, you’ve made it in life. I’m sure Sir Elias would have been proud.”Oasis lowered his gaze respectfully.“I’m sure you’ve noticed,” the man continued, “most folks here… if not all… are new faces.”There was a pause, his voice trembling slightly.“The massacre years ago… it was brutal. Only those who were away from the hamlet survive
Chapter 286: Memory lane.
The golden sunlight slanted low in the sky, bathing Riverbend Hamlet in a gentle glow. As the horizon blushed in amber and rose, the rolling hills cradling the hamlet shimmered like an oil painting come to life. From a distance, Oasis sat astride his equinore, a faint smile dancing on his lips.Before him, nestled peacefully between the lush folds of the forest and the whispering Silverwater River, lay the humble village that once shaped the earliest chapters of his journey. The hamlet was livelier than one might expect, simple, warm, and brimming with small-town familiarity. Smoke rose lazily from chimneys, laughter spilled from distant homes, and the hum of life tickled the breeze.“Finally here,” Oasis whispered to himself.The gentle creak of a carriage behind him drew his attention. “We are finally here, young master,” the elder from within the carriage called out, leaning forward from the shaded interior with a smile.Oasis gently tugged his reins, slowing his equinore to
Chapter 285: A Symbol.
King Elpis turned toward his queen, brows furrowed slightly...“But if he’s not human… then what is he?” he murmured.“He’s definitely not a demon. I’d know if he were.”Queen Elara, ever composed, her beauty as timeless as the mountains, folded her arms beneath her long, sleeves.Her voice, like spring wind through the ancient groves, was both gentle and absolute.“I’m not entirely sure either,” she said slowly. “But... at first, I thought he might be a phoenix.”Elpis blinked, momentarily taken aback.“A phoenix? What would a phoenix be doing here, in Verdantia of all places?” he asked incredulously. “And that boy—Oasis—he’s been here since birth. Didn't he take the Whispering Exams? You said so yourself.”He leaned forward, expression skeptical.“And why would anyone from the Phoenix Clan abandon Phoenix Peak to live in a human kingdom?”Elara didn’t waver.“I understand your doubt. But still—it’s a possibility we cannot dismiss. In Phoenix Peak, there exists a Volacris Clan... and
