2024-05-07 19:57:04Meanwhile, in Riverbend Hamlet,
on the banks of the Silverwater River, the tranquil waters flowed gently, reflecting the moon's ethereal glow.
The river's surface rippled with a mesmerizing dance, mirroring the starry sky above and casting a serene ambiance over the hamlet.
Sir Elias Hawthorne stood on the riverbank, his weathered features illuminated by the soft moonlight.
Beside him, Oasis, still reeling from the revelations of his legacy, stood in silent contemplation.
The magical box and its contents lay between them, a silent testament to the mysteries that surrounded them.
The air was thick with anticipation as both Sir Elias and Oasis grappled with the weight of their thoughts.
Seven years' worth of unanswered questions swirled in their minds, mingling with the echoes of Oasis's father's words.
The letter's contents reverberated in the silence, each word carrying the weight of destiny and purpose.
As they stood in quiet reflection, the tranquility of the night was suddenly shattered by a surge of energy that rippled through the air.
The queen's aura, unleashed from the heart of Sylvaneth, reached even the quiet hamlet of Riverbend, its presence palpable in the night air.
Sir Elias's keen senses picked up on the subtle shift in the atmosphere, and he turned to Oasis with a knowing smile.
"Something good must have happened in the capital," he remarked, his voice tinged with anticipation. "Without a doubt, that is Queen Elara's magic."
Oasis, amazed by the power of the queen, felt a surge of determination coursing through him.
"I am going to be stronger than her, and stronger than everyone," he declared with unwavering resolve.
Turning to Sir Elias with a determined expression, Oasis made a request that echoed with the weight of his newfound determination.
"Please, Sir Elias, can you train me?" he asked, his voice filled with conviction.
Sir Elias's smile widened at Oasis's request, a spark of excitement dancing in his eyes.
"I was already planning to do just that," he replied, his tone brimming with enthusiasm.
It was as if a lion had spotted its prey, ready to embark on the thrill of the hunt.
With a steely resolve, Oasis affirmed his commitment to his own growth and development.
"I have to conquer myself before I conquer the realm and my problems," he declared, his words echoing with the weight of his determination.
"First things first," Sir Elias spoke with authority, his voice carrying a soothing resonance.
"Since your magic energy has stabilized, let's completely heal your injuries."
As Sir Elias began the incantation of his healing magic, known as "Sylvan Restoration," the air around them seemed to shimmer with a serene aura.
The healing energy reflected on the surface of the Silverwater River, casting a gentle glow as it enveloped Oasis in its soothing embrace.
Oasis felt a warm sensation wash over him as Sir Elias's magic worked its wonders.
The pain in his chest dissolved into nothingness, replaced by a sense of rejuvenation and vitality.
His wounds healed completely, leaving behind no trace of the injuries that had once plagued him.
With a deep breath, Oasis felt as though he were reborn, his body restored to its peak condition.
After the healing was complete, Sir Elias wasted no time delving into a comprehensive explanation of the various magic natures in the realm.
He began with the kingdom of Avaloria, describing it as the "Kingdom of the Eternal Sun," where powerful fire mages and sand manipulators harnessed the energy of the sun and sand.
"Verdantia," Sir Elias continued, his voice filled with reverence, "is a kingdom deeply connected to nature."
He explained how druids and elementalists in Verdantia harnessed the power of earth and plants to protect their homeland,
utilizing magic that resonated with the lush greenery and natural abundance of the kingdom.
As Sir Elias moved on to describe Frostgard, he spoke of a land shrouded in ice and snow, where its inhabitants were mainly skilled in ice magic and frost-based combat.
The capital city, he explained, was a marvel of icy architecture illuminated by shimmering auroras in the sky.
With each kingdom he described, Sir Elias provided detailed insights into the unique characteristics of their magic and the ways in which it manifested in the inhabitants.
He explained how some individuals were naturally attuned to certain types of magic, while others gravitated towards different forms based on their innate abilities and inclinations.
"Magic is as diverse as the kingdoms themselves," Sir Elias concluded, his voice filled with wisdom.
"Each form of magic is a reflection of the environment and culture of its respective kingdom, and those who wield it do so with a deep understanding of its nuances and complexities."
As Sir Elias spoke, he gestured towards the Silverwater River, a glint of determination shining in his eyes.
"In my prime, I was best in utilizing wind and water magic," he explained. "Allow me to demonstrate."
With a series of fluid movements and incantations, Sir Elias channeled his magic, drawing upon the elements of wind and water with a grace that spoke of years of practice and mastery.
The air around them began to stir, a gentle breeze sweeping through the clearing as the surface of the river rippled in response.
With a focused gaze, Sir Elias extended his hands towards the river, his magic weaving together in a seamless dance of power and control.
A whirlwind formed above the water, swirling with increasing intensity as it gathered moisture from the river below.
In a breathtaking display of skill, Sir Elias performed a high-level double casting, combining his wind and water magic in a dazzling display of elemental mastery.
The whirlwind twisted and expanded, shaping itself into intricate patterns that danced across the surface of the river with mesmerizing grace.
As Oasis watched in awe, Sir Elias's control over the elements was evident in every movement, his magic flowing with effortless precision.
The air crackled with energy as the whirlwind surged with power, a testament to Sir Elias's formidable skills as a mage.
With a final flourish, Sir Elias released his hold on the magic, allowing the whirlwind to dissipate with a soft sigh. The air grew still once more, the surface of the river returning to its calm, reflective state.
"That, young Oasis, is the beauty of wind and water magic," Sir Elias explained, his voice tinged with pride.
"It requires patience, focus, and a deep connection to the elements and a lot cultivation. With practice and dedication, you too can wield the magic of the elements with such mastery."

Few moments earlier—while Elanor’s awarding was still unfolding on the grand stage—Within the inner chambers of the Grand Sanctuary, Oasis sat alone in a resting room, his body folded into a calm meditative stance.The room itself was quiet, insulated from the roar of the crowd by layered enchantments.Soft spiritual lamps illuminated the polished stone walls,and before him hovered an enchanted glass panel—its surface rippling faintly as it reflected everything happening on the stage outside in perfect clarity.Oasis’s eyes were half-lidded, focused not on the spectacle, but on the flow of energy within and around himself.“At first,” Oasis thought calmly, “I was using it through the principle of Wind Shift that Master Elias taught me.”A faint current stirred around his seated form, responding to the echo of that thought.“But after gaining his wisdom… and studying his life journal,” Oasis continued inwardly, “I found ways to utilize it at a far more advanced rate.”His spiritual s

“I thought I had to give her the stage so she could offer words of wisdom and enlightenment to young Lady Elanor,”Amon thought as he took a few measured steps across the stage, his robes swaying lightly with each movement.“After all, she is a woman—perhaps she would relate better coming from another woman.”His gaze flickered briefly toward Lady Marcellia, who now sat composed and unbothered, her presence still pressing invisibly against the air.“But to think she would pull such a move…” Amon continued inwardly, a trace of disbelief still lingering.“To outright claim her as her disciple—this truly caught me off guard.”A faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips.“Still… it is good. Good for the Bal family. Good for Elanor.”His eyes drifted back toward the center of the stage, where moments ago Elanor had stood.“And without a doubt,” he mused, “in a few decades, Elanor will become a blade most would not even dare to look at—let alone see its edge pointed in their direction.”

The Bal family’s rank will definitely change now.We’ve been one of the Four Pilla

The regal presence was unmatched.Despite her having been there all this time—despite everyone having already seen her descend toward the stage—it was suddenly, painfully evident that seeing Lady Marcellia Valmorra was never enough.Her presence was something that refused to settle into familiarity.The crowd could not grow used to it.The air itself seemed unwilling to accept her as merely another figure standing upon the stage.It was a strange, paradoxical sensation that washed over everyone present.Safety—and danger—intertwined.It felt as though the world itself acknowledged her authority while simultaneously recoiling from it.Like standing beneath an ancient sky: comforting in its vastness, terrifying in its indifference.Her figure stood calm and elegant, yet the space around her bent subtly, as though reality itself made room for her existence.Her posture was relaxed, her expression composed, but the authority she radiated was absolute—silent, crushing, undeniable.Among th

“Essence-Sucking Leech…”Theodore Kaizen mused, his hands folded where he sat in line among the great names.A cold shiver traced its way down his spine as his gaze remained locked on the pulsing, predatory core resting within the opened box.The crimson light within it throbbed slowly, like a living heart, each pulse sending faint ripples of beastly intent into the surrounding air.“To even lay eyes on such a creature in the wild is a death sentence,” Theodore continued quietly, his voice low yet heavy with certainty.“By the time a cultivator notices that translucent, vein-streaked body—barely the size of a human forearm at first, yet capable of expanding tenfold—their vitality is already being siphoned through the air itself.”His eyes narrowed, memories and records flashing through his mind.“Accounts of these horrors are written in the marrow of the dead.Mummified corpses—dried husks—found deep within the damp, mana-saturated caverns of the Forsaken Marshes, where light never to

“I thought she would be a bit traumatized… or at least in a bad mood for some time after that fight with that Oasis kid,” Eclipse thought as his gaze rested on Elanor, who knelt gracefully before the stage.“But it seems there is nothing to worry about.”His eyes narrowed slightly, not with suspicion, but with the sharp perception of a father who knew his child better than anyone else.“But one thing is certain,” his thoughts continued, slower now, more grounded.“It might not be obvious to others, but she is carrying her body purely with sheer will.She is physically drained. Most might not see it—but I can. She is my daughter, after all.”A subtle warmth spread through his chest.“And I’m proud of the way she’s handling herself.”Then irritation crept in, uninvited.“But I wonder… how could Amon conclude that the ceremony would take place only thirty minutes after witnessing my daughter collapse unconscious—almost dying?Did he simply assume she would be able to attend after just th
