Chapter 1218 What's happening?
What's happening?
Rumble Rumble Rumble
Thunder Thunder
The entire Yrniel trembled. Heavy Clouds were seen all over the sky, web-like lightnings roared along with thunderous sounds, and the water bodies and the ground alike, all trembled and became restless, the star beasts, no matter the level they were at, from 1 Star to 12 Star, all lowered their heads as if they were trying to protect themselves from something.
"What is happening...?"
Alaric, who was observing everything seemed taken aback. In his long life, this was the first time he had witnessed such a scene and just like him, other Divine Stage Cultivators had the same expressions on their faces,
The Sky had turned golden, the weblike flashes of lightning weren't stopping, wind currents were blowing without stopping,
It was as if the world itself was trying to say something.
'Nux...?'
Lyriana, who was outside the Trial Tower couldn't help but think of him.
Even she had a stupefied look on her face just like everyone else around her, they all were looking at the fantasy-like sky as if the world's end was near.
It was a beautiful, yet strangely fearsome sight.
And it was not just the people here who were alerted,
"Mother..."
Vulpiana who woke up from her long 'sleep' called out. Her Seven Fur Like Tails were moving around slowly, giving an extremely cuddly vibe.
"So it did disturb you huh..." Faelara, who had just walked into her daughter's room commented as she opened the curtains of the window and glanced at the Golden Sky outside.
"W-What is happening...?"
Vulpiana was shocked.
"It is the Will of Yrniel."
Faelara commented with a solemn look on her face, her eyes reflected a mysterious shine as she stared at the sky.
"Will of Yrniel...?"
Vulpiana's confusion was visible.
"Do not Practice your Law for now. Yrniel is in a mess right now, you will simply be wasting your efforts."
Faelara replied.
"Mother, what is happening...?"
Vulpiana could not understand.
Faelara, however, shook her head,
"I do not know.
The only time a Will of the World acts this way is when it is either too scared or when it is extremely happy and in both cases, one thing is common, Something big is about to happen.
Something that might destroy everything we worked so hard for."
Faelara explained with a grim look on her face.
Vulpiana, however, couldn't understand anything her mother was saying, she absolutely hated how her mother was talking in riddles.
In the end, she just stared at the Sky, mesmerized by the shining golden color and this golden colored reminded her of a certain man,
"Is he back...?"
She questioned.
"Hmm?"
Faelara tilted her head in confusion, soon however, her expression changed,
"He must have left quite an impression if you still remember him."
"He defeated me and the other so-called Heroes alone."
"Not like you were using all your strength." Faelara waved her hand.
"Not like that would have changed anything."
Vulpiana's reply was quick.
Faelara chuckled, she liked how self-aware how daughter was, it was important to know your strengths, weaknesses, and limits. Only then could one plan their future actions.
"He is back and he had made quite a big ruckus too," Faelara replied.
"What did he do?" Vulpiana questioned.
"Defeated some clans who challenged his, massacred an entire high-level clan only leaving 3 Complete Saints alive, and declaring war against the Dragon Continent and its Lord."
Faelara dropped the bomb and,
"What...?"
Vulpiana's eyes widened in absolute horror.
"I only went to closed-door cultivation after breaking through and becoming a 7-Tailed Fox, how long has it been!?" Vulpiana questioned.
"Well, you have been in closed-door cultivation for 50 years now, as for Nux, he only came out a few days ago."
"A few days...?"
Vulpiana was shocked.
He did all that in a few days...?
She couldn't possibly believe something as absurd as that.
"That boy is a lot more monstrous than we initially thought. Spying on him might not exactly go as we planned so I want you to drop the idea."
"We cannot do that and you know that. He knows our secret and we need to find out how."
"It is not that simple, Vyriana is around him almost all the time."
"Then how is the Dragon Lord fighting him?"
"Well... there are some shenanigans that I'd rather not explain. Just look into everything by yourself and decide it on your own. The Laws of the world are a mess anyway, so I won't be sending you anywhere, not unless the Will of Yrniel calms down."
Faelara spoke, her words, however, raised a flag.
...
In a place far away from Nux and the others, a man with golden eyes opened his eyes in his darkroom as he sensed the changes in Yrniel, A frown appeared on his face,
"What is happening...?"
He questioned.
"It's the Will of Yrniel."
A woman appeared behind him and replied.
"Don't be foolish, Yrniel never reacted in such a way."
The man dismissed, the woman, however, just smiled,
"Did you already forget?"
"Are you saying someone comparable to him was born?" the man raised his eyebrow.
"I am merely inferring things from what I am seeing."
The man didn't bother to argue any further, he just closed his eyes and tried to sense what happened,
Rumble
Yrniel trembled, giving him the answer he asked for,
"A Human..."
The man frowned.
"Is it the same one who reached the 40th Wave?"
The woman questioned with a curious look on her face and hearing her question, the man looked stupefied,
"The 40th Wave...? Of the Human Trial...?"
Seeing his shocked expression, the woman couldn't help but feel superior,
"While you were sleeping, a monster who reached the 40th Wave inside the Human Trial appeared."
"What? How!?"
The man widened his eyes in disbelief as he stood up in shock.
"And do you know who is currently teaching that man?"
"Who...?"
"It's our Vyriana."
"That girl...?"
The man was shocked.
"That is correct,
'That' girl.
And from what Aeliana told me, she is quite protective of that man as well, even going as far as using the Emblem for his sake."
"What...?"
The man was shocked.
In an instant, he closed his eyes, wanting answers.
