NOVPUBPov Elizabeth’s:
I was in the crystal castle watching the flower garden along with the stars when Karina arrived next to Natasha.
"I just found out that Zenos is going to try to create 3 more Divine Heralds today." (Natasha)
"I know, there are only a few days left before we reach Tarzor, he is scared and thinks this is the best way to prepare." (I)
"You don’t think so, why?" (Natasha)
"How about before I answer we don’t hear his Saint say the reason for his concern?" (I)
"..." (Karina)
If Zenos is to create more Divine Heralds in his preparation, then his two Saints should be present, but instead one of them is in front of me very far from where he is now, that is curious to say the least.
"Alice always follows everything the master does, taking it for granted that everything will end well, but I can’t do that." (Karina)
"I also noticed that the master’s presence is becoming more and more different, but I can’t say how, so I came to ask you." (Karina)
"(She noticed the change in Aura, she shouldn’t expect anything less from a Dragon so unique and linked to Zenos.)" (I)
"(But she didn’t realize the rest, it must be difficult without the necessary knowledge.)" (I)
"Don’t worry, if it was something harmful to him, I would have said something already, so go back to his side." (I)
"She’s right, you should be there for something so important, so hurry up." (Natasha)
"..." (Karina)
She turned and walked away, it was written on her face that she was not convinced, but she knows she must be by his side today, I wait for Karina to leave and I look at Natasha, her face was serious looking at the stars and the garden.
"You wouldn’t tell me about that, would you?" (Natasha)
"No, everyone will find out in due time." (I)
"He might not like it." (Natasha) 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
"The only one to blame is him, who orders us to continue doing such absurd things." (I)
"Where is Caitlyn, if I noticed, then she...." (Natasha)
"She’s taking care of something, that’s just part of what’s going to happen." (I)
I stood next to Natasha as we both looked at the shadows of tree branches between the barely visible stars.
------------------
Pov Zenos:
I was on the Dungeon’s training floor, a field without monsters and with a large area where people from the Dungeon come to do their training when they have a certain level of strength.
"Alice, where is Karina?" (I)
"She went to inform her sisters, she should be back in no time." (Alice)
"My sisters shouldn’t come, Caitlyn only cares about resting and has been sleeping since we got back, Natasha only cares about herself and Elizabeth... only the Goddess Selene knows what’s going on in her head." (I)
Sigh
I have a lot of things to deal with every day and endless worries, Freya hasn’t woken up yet and I haven’t had time to go see her tree since I came back, more than half of the Dungeon is still sleeping while the other half that woke up is weakened, I’m still I didn’t find the reason for something so strange.
There is also the problem of being separated from my wives, I know they are training somewhere, but I don’t know where and no one tells me that, I still have Niryna sleeping inside me that needs to be born and Callidora is still watching me through Niryna.
Not counting the acquisition of the last of the Essences and this preparation I’m doing, there are so many things at the same time that I don’t even have time to digest what happened to the 3 Sources of Power.
"(I’ll have time for that later, I need to have priorities and ensuring my safety is one of those priorities.)" (I)
The Essences were harming me, my body and Soul were not resisting so much power, that’s why I started creating the Sources of Power so early and accepted the creation of the Divine Heralds, it was these things that stabilized my Soul and body as they are now.
But I don’t know what it will be like when I get the last Essence, each of them had a different weight on me and hit different parts of me, the next Essence is probably associated with Souls and I think it’s safe to assume that it will hit my Soul like a meteor crushing a fly, so I’m trying to acquire more Divine Heralds, improve the container to support what is being poured inside.
"Are you well?" (Alice)
"No, I have a lot to deal with, but I’ll be fine when this is all over." (I)
"(At least I hope I’m okay when this is all over.)" (I)
-----------------
Several minutes later.
After several minutes of waiting I see the 4 arriving, Fiona was taking the lead with her eyes burning with determination, Xagar seemed to be very calm, his eyes had never been as clear as they are now to the point of not seeing the anger he always carried, these two surprise me with their growth in strength and maturity.
Kiara was also here, but she was just next to Zaya, their interaction was a little strange, others may not see it, but I and certainly Alice who is my Saint can see Kiara’s Aura full of absolute Faith tearing out the Aura strange from Zaya.
"Sir, what did that…" (Alice)
"Don’t say anything..." (I)
I could already guess why to some degree, but I might find out more after I get through the other two.
As soon as we were close, I waved to Xagar and Fiona to take a step forward, I wanted to hear their response directly, especially from Xagar, sometimes you need to verbalize in the right situation to confirm something you have decided to do, I know what the two have decided, their Auras scream their decision, but Xagar needs it to demonstrate it to himself.
"First of all, I would like to hear the answer from you two." (I)
"My decision has always been just the same, to serve Lord Zenos, there is nothing else to consider." (Fiona)
"(She still doesn’t understand or maybe she doesn’t want to understand, I just hope she realizes what’s around her one day.)" (I)
I wanted Fiona to realize that her desire is not to serve, but to protect like a soldier’s spear, the spearhead that takes the front in a war to protect those behind.
"From the moment I arrived, I had doubts about Lord Zenos, about myself and about the future..." (Xagar)
"Today I see that all these doubts are due to my insecurity and weakness... but now I say, no more doubting!" (Xagar)
"If Lord Zenos grants me such power, then let it be the sword that will open the way in his name without ever taking a step back!" (Xagar)
In his eyes all I see will act is resolution, his anger is still there as is his hatred, but they are not the totality of what they once were, it looks like he is trying to enter a new path tearing everything in front of him.
"You two have made your decisions, now you can go with them." (I)
Sakura appears sprouting from the ground inside a flower, she holds Fiona in her arms before taking her back to the Flower that closes its petals and sinks into the earth.
Nix comes out of Xagar’s shadow showing only the Dragon’s head completely swallows him before flying away.
In the end only the last two remained, Zaya had already made her decision and Kiara didn’t even consider a decision, for her there was only one path from the beginning without even considering whether or not there are other options.
"You two, I called you for different reasons." (I)
"Kiara, you must go Layla, just like those two who were taken by my Familiars, you need to be tested, go." (I)
"Come with me and be quick!" (Layla)
Layla, who had been sitting on my shoulder since the beginning, flew in one direction and Kiara spread her butterfly wings following right behind.
"Now all that’s left is you, I imagine you’ve already guessed." (I)
"You want to fight." (Zaya)
"Yes, but it will be a one-sided fight just like I did with Kiara, I want to know more about you and your power, follow me." (I)
------------------
Pov Alice’s:
I just stood aside and let master Zenos do what he wanted, but as soon as he left, I slit my wrist letting the blood flow, Holy power flows through my blood as it spreads to the surroundings forming a magic circle.
It was at that moment that I felt her approaching me, so just like I did before, she cut her wrist letting her blood flow creating a second layer of magic circles.
"You took a long time, what did Mrs. Elizabeth say?" (I)
"She didn’t say anything, but she made it clear that nothing wrong would happen to Zenos." (Karina)
"How were things here?" (Karina)
"Three are being tested by the Familiars and Zaya went to fight him." (I)
As we spoke, the sanctification of this area has been completed, the Holy power has concentrated more here, doing this within the Dungeon is as simple as ever, unfortunately it is also temporary.
"Master is being too hasty." (I)
"He’s always been like this, at least I feel calmer knowing he’s not in danger." (Karina)
