Rise Of The Celestials Chapter 56
It was evening but a particular building had carriage after carriage ride through its gates.They all stopped at the entrance to the main building, letting their passengers out.Every one of these people was dressed in beautiful ball gowns and suits that sparkled in the lights spilling from the hall entrance.There were distinctions to every one of the carriages arriving.Some were bigger, looking more gorgeous than others, signifying the higher class of people they carried.The higher the class, the lower the number of these carriages that could be seen.At the hall's entrance, the guards stood in their nice armor. It impressed many that these guards were gorgeous women, however, staring could easily be seen as disrespectful, so they had to move on.Inside the hall, two curved staircases hugged the walls on the right and left. They led up to the floor above.On the ground floor was a string quartet playing a slow, calm song that just blended into the background nicely.Many of the pe

."Deirdre, I haven't heard of anyone with your name. How are you related to Miss Seiran?"Unexpectedly, Eleanor was the one who broke the silence."I call her mother but she adopted me...""That I can guess", Eleanor interruptedDeirdre smiled when she heard this, and took a long look at Eleanor. Eloise pulled on Eleanor's arm, however, Eleanor was having none of it."Eloise, it's just a question. Brother said we should get to know each other""I'm really sorry about her. She asks questions without putting much thought into them", Eloise tried to smooth things over."It's fine. I was adopted less than a week ago. I was passed out in the middle of the road when she found me"Eleanor's expression had gone from unhappy to depreciating. This change took less than a second, swift as the wind."Is that so...?", She asked"Eleanor...!!", Eloise interrupted with a stern voice."It's fine... These are all things you can find out about me, although it might be hard for people to recognize me""

The carriages took off again. Nothing much had changed but he could feel the full bumpy nature of the carriage he was on.He sat in the corner of the carriage with his eyes closed and every one of his new travel mates around.Eyes snapped in his direction more often than he'd bother to count, so he ignored it.As usual, his eyes were closed for a good reason, and as usual, it was to go into his subconscious.He did not visit the library this time, he instead sat before the primordial stele.Over the course of this journey, he had read about most things he needed to know. The next thing to do was, decipher the bizarre inscription in his mind.He'd made some progress in this regard, however, the inscription was like a language he couldn't read twisted to make it even more confusing.The one thing he could say for sure was that this inscription had something to do with his foray into chaotic space.Chaos, being one of his elemental affinities meant what he had experienced was something h

Falling through the sky, Aiden felt his head spin. His mind lost focus for a moment.As he spun through the air, he opened his eyes to see the person who had slammed into him. Quick description: slim figure covered in a black hood. A hood that made the figure look like a shadow in the night sky. For some reason, the moon was no longer obscured, and it shone down brightly.Soon, he tumbled into a position where he was looking at the water beneath. He hurriedly positioned himself to dive into the water, legs first.As he held his arms to his body to reduce his surface area, he noticed that the figure in a hood was still flailing in the air.He couldn't think about this before he splashed into the water.Sinking into the water rapidly, he felt the force of the waterfall that was pouring into the water not too far away.This helped immensely as the water pushed him upward. Slowly he swam to the surface.As soon as his head got free of the water's su

It was early in the morning when Aiden opened his eyes. The light from the moon had dimmed down considerably as its position was no longer overhead.They say that 'it is darkest just before dawn, and compared to the bright night prior, at that moment, it really was darker.Nothing much had changed in the time he took a nap. Aside from the fire that went out, the only difference was Princess Diane who was sleeping not too far away. She had the same blanket he left her covering her.After spacing out for a second, he got to his feet and walked off.His walk was not without purpose because he came back not long after with some more dry wood, and water in a container, as well as some fish.She was sitting when he came back. She said nothing and he didn't as well.In that silence, he made a fire, cleaned the fish, and began roasting it. He had no salt or spices to add to the fish, so he cooked it as it were.It did not take long to get this done, however, he cooked all the fish he caught.

They dusted off their clothes as they stood up. He looked up just in time to see the floor they fell through mend itself.The fall wasn't a long one, which meant, there were only a few bruises to be seen.They had barely collected themselves when the fire flared up around them. The fire came from torches that illuminated the space.The space was a small circular room and it had nothing in it except for the doors that lined every wall. Counting from left to right, there were nine doors in the room."What now?"Aiden did not give a response because his focus was on the floor beneath their feet. She noticed where his attention was focused and looked down.There were engravings on the ground, marking each section of an engraved circle. All the sections were equal in size, and there were in total, twelve of them."What language is this?", He asked Zarek["That is a very old language. It is the identifying language of a very old organization. It's been lost since the sealing of the World Ea

"Think it through?""We managed a win there, however, who knows what we will have to fight next?""I understand"Following this response, Aiden sat on the ground with his back to the wall and closed his eyes."What are you doing?"Before he could even sort through his thoughts, she interrupted him."I memorized it... I'm trying to think of the best solution"As soon as he gave his response, he looked away and closed his eyes. Diving into his subconscious, his destination was the library replica. He planned to find anything that was related to the organization Zarek told him about. The ones who used these symbols for communication.The saving grace here was the library's quick search feature that could find all materials relating to a particular topic.Keyword: Secret organization—The number of aged scrolls he got this time was more than the normal books. Still, there were a lot of them he'd have to go through, enough to bury him in reading for weeks."That's a lot more than I expect
Rise Of The Celestials Chapter 63
The hall was long, something they found when the light from the torches lit it up completely.The spot where the floor fell in was at one end of the hall, and off in the distance, they saw what looked like a round table with high chairs surrounding it.Slowly, the two walked down the hall toward the round table.It was a round table that looked so ancient that it felt like it would fall apart at any moment.Surprisingly, it was clean, dust free despite the weathered look.The chairs had regal looks to them. In their time, they were crafted to be luxurious, and this fact was still evident from a single look at them.This round table had twelve chairs around it. Each had a symbol engraved on the chair."What do you think it is—""What do you think it is—"These questions were directed in the order: Princess Diane asked Aiden the question while Aiden asked Zarek the same question at that exact moment.["It's a round table"], Zarek responded after a startled pause."I know that it's a rou

Breakdown (1)
The crowd was pulled from the tragedy that the nobles caused, and some people started to point to the group suspended above them, whispering and murmuring various pieces of gossip.This was a topic that excited them all, however, the ones who were most excited for the revelation were the nobles who finally knew the people who beat them to occupy the highest floor of the tower.They did not hide the wicked grins on their faces and Aiden saw these grins on their faces. He also saw that the group were starting to descend from the sky into the midst of the crowd. That was bad and was quickly made worse when he noticed the nobles setting their hounds on the group.He could guess their thoughts. Even if the group was stronger than they were, given the position they occupied, they did not believe it and wanted to know for themselves how powerful they were.This gave Aiden a headache and his mind began to spin quickly, looking for a big enough distraction that would give the group a chance to

None could ask the other for help because each had someone attacking them, however, they were not noble scions for nothing. Despite being overpowered by the golems, they dealt some damage over time.It was not immediately obvious, but they managed to hold their own, and avoid grievous injuries even though there were several close calls.It took them each about an hour to circumvent their respective golems and deal enough damage to break through their chests.Hadrian was the first followed by Oscar shortly after with Tristan clocking in third, a few seconds behind Oscar. He was unhappy with this but he had no time to be unhappy because his face soon changed into a somber look. Oscar who had just tried to pick up the glowing multi-coloured orb was surprised to find the orb roll away from him and float up to meet the orb that came from Tristan’s golem. This also meant that the orb in Hadrian’s hand was the only one that remained.Oscar and Tristan noticed this, but they could do nothin

Chapter 148: Three Noble Scions
No one cared who had said that word because they all ran. The sight of the gray tentacles rising like pillars from the depths of the abyss was enough to scare every one of them.At the same moment, there was a rumble that spread across the skies of the city at that moment. Everyone heard it. Aiden, sitting in the restaurant was jolted from his thoughts and joined everyone else as they looked up at the ruin.He witnessed a few of the tentacles of the beast appear on the edge of the ruin as he had seen before they entered the ruin.‘That bridge, huh? They might be lucky enough to escape'.He did not care much if these people beat the ruin and made it to the temple. He had gotten his rewards and he was happy with that.Tristan and his group had immediately dashed off the bridge, but the tentacles came down on the bridge at a lightning-fast speed.This attack ripped the bridge apart, leaving just three people from Tristan’s group unscathed.Tristan’s face was painted with horror like ever

Aiden was dumbfounded. How was this a reward? It simply contradicted itself. The problem it caused was having him be a prime target for the Zaltyr, but it would also save him from them once.Then, is the mark erased once the life-saving opportunity is used?[Yes, everything returns to normal after that]This made him heave a sigh of relief. He tried to look at this from a positive perspective. This meant the mark was not meant to specifically protect him from the Zaltyr, its main purpose was to protect him from every other thing that tried to kill him.Thinking about it this way made it easier to accept the fact that he was going to be in trouble with the Zaltyr sooner or later, albeit only slightly.Elder Zarek watched Aiden go through his thoughts for a few minutes while he thought of the command he had received from The World Seed.Aiden had recovered his thoughts at this point and decided to check on his elemental seed. He was elated to see the changes to his elemental seed.The mu

Chapter 146: Mark of the Primordial World Seed
None of the thirty remaining survivors was stupid and they took things as calmly as they could. There was no visible harm to resting till a problem was identified and this was something they unanimously agreed on.As they expected, there was something that was out of the ordinary and it was found after two hours of waiting.The quiet rumble that came from the depths of the chasm was enough of a wake-up call.Theo of the Arco twins was the one who made the first comment, breaking the silence. None of them believed that crossing the bridge would be easy from the start, however, the realization that some unknown danger lurked beneath was enough to bring them flashbacks of their time in the maze.“There’s something down there as well? Why is this trial so difficult?”“Good thing we were patient…”“Patient? What does that do for us?”“Theo is not completely wrong. Every stage of the trials had been harder than the last”, Oscar took a deep breath.“Indeed… Something that can cause such a ru

Chapter 145: Separated By Trials
“You just had to jinx it?”Raven rolled her eyes in response.The orb glowed and the rubble spread across the hall was drawn to it. One piece after the other, they mashed together and barely a moment later, a statue had formed.This statue looked the same as the ones they fought before, save for a few important differences. One, this new statue was massive, at least three times as tall. Two, the statue now had a weapon – A halberd which it swung around. Three, most importantly, it had lines running all over its body. Looking close enough these lines were runes just like the ones Aiden and the rest had, but these were very close to being complete, easily dwarfing the ones they had.Their expressions turned grave as the glowing eyes of the massive statue locked onto them.It was a golem, and it wasted no time. With a roar that sounded like thunder, it wielded its halberd and charged at them.There was no running from it, because, a sweep of its halberd made the hall feel claustrophobi

Chapter 144: The Stone Guardians
Raven who had suggested was the first to move, and the moment she did, everyone else followed her one after the other. They got to the stone coffin amidst their careful creeping without any problems. The unnerving feeling that they felt from the statues kept them on their toes as they expected everything to go wrong at any moment. "Now what", Raven asked. Aiden and Connor stepped here, and as he instructed; "Keep an eye out", the two of them pushed the lid off the stone coffin. They were right to be worried, because the moment the stone coffin opened slightly, light burst out of the opening. They were taken aback by this absurd light show, however, the light was like a tonic, one that breathed life into the surrounding. Life into the several warrior statues that lined the walls. Each of their eyes opened with a snap, glowing a bright orange, followed by cracks that came from the loosening of the joints on the statues. Gadiel was the first to speak regret about the situation, but

With Aiden and Connor leading the way, they stepped onto the rope bridge. The silence that fell on them at that was quite unnerving, but it helped them keep their focus. This meant that their reactions were spot on as they responded immediately to Aiden making any signals.This was the moment that they finally understood the danger that lay in the chasm beneath them. Apart from the scary chasm that looked like a bottomless pit, a sight that already promised them death should they fall into it, there was something else living in the chasm, and the dreadful atmosphere it brought with evidence of its existence sent chills running their spines. The conclusion here was very simple, there was trouble and they needed to be careful.Listening carefully, they heard the silent rumbles gradually fade away, taking with it the tense atmosphere they felt. You would expect Aiden to make a sudden dash to get across as quickly as possible, but he didn't. He was taking no chances, so continued steadily

"Three days?!", Raven started."Oh, don't get worked up, it was more like two and a half days", Princess Eleanor chipped in.Unfortunately, this did not change the reaction Raven had; in fact, her reaction got worse at that moment as she got frantic and almost lost her mind as she looked around."Calm down, Raven. Things are not as bad as you think. We are out of the grassland maze; of course, we had to wait for everyone to de-petrify before we continued…", Deirdre explained."So, what trial do we have now?", Raven asked and immediately got a response."Oh, the long rope bridge, strung across the chasm that has a tentacled beast living in it", Deirdre responded like that piece of information was of no consequence.Raven was silent as she stared off into space for a moment. When she got her mind back, she asked almost immediately… "Are we crossing now that I am awake?"A question to which Princess Eleanor answered in a snarky and sarcastic tone… "Hopefully". Her comment got a few gazes
