Chapter 115~ Uninvited Guests ~“What kind of ritual?” Ian asked.“Come with me,” Mother Knox replied and rose to her feet. The gentle wind intensified a bit as she stood up, her large long sleeves fluttering, likewise her silver long hair.From their perspective and with her standing before the sun, made her look akin to a descending angel from the heavens.“You’re still seated? Get on you feet,” she commanded in a motherly tone.The Dhemistarians snapped from their daze and rose to their feet.“So… is it going to be like an incantation ritual, sacrificial or a blood ritual?” Ian asked as he rummaged his head for more types of rituals. The only ones he had experienced lately was with the Phantom in Whitegrail and the Sages at the palace. He was hoping it to be the former and not the latter.With a chuckle, the demi-goddess put out her right hand and began to wave it slowly across the air, “Oh there’ll be blood alright.”“Excuse me?!” Ian would have said but was too stunned to even s
Chapter 116~~ No Holds Barred ~~“Did you here that, Mabel?” Derek scoffed. “He thinks he can take us all, by himself.”“He’s one cocky bastard, isn’t he?” Maybe grinned, her irises glowing blue, her fangs and claws jutting out. With a growl, she said, “He’s mine--”“So that if you beat him, he’d say he was holding back because you’re a girl? No. Let’s make this fair,” his irises glowed yellow, his fangs dripping with thirst for blood, his claws itching to maul. “Handle the princess… He’s mine.”“Ugh… She better be strong as they say,” Mabel grunted and shot towards Amelia in a blurring speed.Whoosh!The grasses danced roughly at the flitting speed of her feet. She closed the distance between them in less than two seconds. Rubbing shoulders with Raymond, she moved further and lunged her claws at Amelia that was behind him. But then, the weirdest thing happened. She realized she couldn’t move any further. With her hand lunged out, she stood frozen on a spot. It was then she noticed t
Chapter 117~ Meetings ~King Dhamon Cassius opened his eyes, staring into the void. He was floating naked amid totally darkness and emptiness. The darkness was so thick, he felt himself drowning from his pressure. He raised his hands and dropped his head, trying to take a look at himself, but he saw nothing.He kept wandering in the void until the blanket of darkness cracked and burst open, ushering and immense intensity of golden light. Its presence made every boy of darkness flee.Dhamon dropped his hands after barely adjusting to the bright light. With squinted eyes, he stared at a being situated at the epicenter of the expanding golden light.The being had golden hair and golden irises, his face gorgeous and yet domineering. He was clad in a golden flowing robe.Dhamon’s jaw dropped.If the being wasn’t so big, it made Dhamon look like a speck of dust, he wouldn’t have been flabbergasted.His lips quivered, recognizing the godlike being before him, “G-Ghordon?”Ghordon’s face we
Chapter 118~~ Spawning the Siege ~~Huntsville, Earth…|Department of Defense and Technology — D.O.D.T|Inside the 50th floor of the sky high building….The pulsing yellow portal shone brightly before closing up.Mr. Patterson straightened the few wrinkles on his black suit by pulling the fringes. He sighed as the portal closed and plopped to his swiveling black chair.He remained seated for minutes, swiveling from side to side, deep in thoughts.‘Hmmm. I never thought he’d initiate it so soon, something must have gone wrong. I still have a lot of preparation to do, more men and more power,’ he stopped his chair from turning and leaned forth, placing his hands on the table. ‘Luckily, I’ve been preparing twice as hard. I should have enough for Huntsville. That’s a start. The fear and death should full him enough.’His lips curved up to a smirk, his black eyes exuding this… malicious intent.He rose to his feet and walked out of his office. Taking the elevator, he descended to the last
Chapter 119~ The Siege ~Knyghtstead…Conner jolted forward on his chair as the bell rang loudly, reverberating around the tall tower. He swayed his brown hair back and stood up, leaning towards the window frame of the tower’s peak. He could see the rift — that was over a kilometer away from them, ripple continuously.“He’s back…” he whispered to himself and scurried around the small open room. At the bottom edge of each window frames were protruded circular bricks with foreign carvings engraved on them. Setting his mind and body at peace, he touched each one with his palm, imbuing them with his qi before pushing them into the wall.Clang!As he pushed the last one in, the rift went to a standstill. A few seconds later, the shape of a door appeared beneath the rift. One could see Dhemistaria at the other side and the silhouette of a tall man. The man walked through from Dhemistaria to Knyghtstead in matter of seconds, as though he was moving from one room to the other. The door dissi
Chapter 120~~ Rumble ~~The Upper Dimension, Mother Knox's realm…Mabel's long brown hair was in a fluttering frenzy as she dashed forward in zigzags, dodging the lashing tentacles from the gigantic octopus. Amelia stood on its head, doing nothing but watching her animals take care of the enemy.Mabel had taken down only two of the large wild animals that were made of rocks and plants. Her anger and frustration was clearly visible on her face. They weren’t made of flesh and blood, so killing them was kind of pointless and underwhelming. All she wanted was a simple bloodbath, and could only get that from a living creature. That’s why she was still moving forward — to maul Amelia. The thought of taking her back alive had eloped her. She had been overwhelmed by her beastly side.A long shadow suddenly loomed over her and she raised her head to see two tentacles descending towards her. Her glowing blue eyes brightened under her arched brows.Roar!She let out a concentrated a sonic roar,
Chapter 121~ Domain of Darkness ~“Athena, the goddess of storms and Metallurgy,” Dhamon said, coming to a stop a few meters away from her. Then he bowed slightly, “My apologies. It's Mother Knox, isn’t it?”Mother Knox stared at the Dhemistarian in disdain. She could tell from their proximity and the malevolent aura exuding him, that he had risen to the level of a demigod. She creased her brows as she felt him getting stronger even as he spoke. His contact with the Upper dimension where primordial cosmic energies flowed freely might be acting as a catalyst to his godhood affinity.“It burdens me how everyone adores and worships you, calling you the goddess of this, the goddess of that. When in truth you’re nothing but a copied waste product of the true gods themselves,” Dhamon spoke like he was on his throne. His boldness before the demigoddess was unmatched. “You should tell everyone the truth that you’re a false god.”“And you think you can become a true god yourself?” Mother Knox
Chapter 122 ~~ Fifteen percent? ~~ Specks of blue essence dissociated gradually from Ghordon’s body and seeped into Ian's chest. By now, Ghordon’s right arm and a part of his shoulder had dissociated completely. Ian's brows kept twitching as he tried to maintain an undeterred focus on the process. His hand would quiver in intervals as he resisted the urge to let go of Ghordon’s hand. “Stay calm, Ian. The calmer you are, the faster the merge,” Ghordon said with a soothing voice. With his eyes still closed, Ian grunted, “This is taking too long. Everyone is in danger. I can feel it.” Ghordon sighed, “That’s why I need you to clear your mind. The faster we do this, the better we have a chance of saving everyone.” Rumble! A tremor shook the metaphysical plane, almost swiping Ghordon and Ian off their feet. They staggered from side to side, still holding onto each other. “What was that?” Ian asked. Ghordon’s eyes narrowed, “It’s too soon.” Ian raised a brow, “It feels like somet
