Capítulo 30: Chapter 30-Gathering of Deities
Times flow fast. Eleven years after meeting Zassler, Rebecca, and Leena. Everything about the continent was peaceful.
Ernst was sitting in the chair while sipping a cup of wine in the back garden of the Blackshadow Castle. He put down the wine cup and pick-up the intelligence report on the table. The reports were gathered by the Dawson Conglomerate for the past years. As he reads the report, he couldn't help but smile.
'McKenzie challenges Haydson again to a duel. Haydson lose with just a spear move from McKenzie…'
'Olivier challenges McKenzie in a battle. The battle result in a tie. Olivier and McKenzie was evenly matc...'
'Baruch Duchy were founded in the Anarchic Lands…'
Linley of Baruch Duchy married Delia of Leon Clan from Yulan Empire...'
'Saint-level combatants of Dawson Kingdom James, Sarah, Douglas, and Roger with their Saint-level magical beast roamed around the continent and challenges other Saints…..'
'A ratmaggedon wave occurred on the other half of the Anarchic Lands…..'
'The forces of Radiant Church and Cult of Shadows in the Anarchic Lands were uprooted…..'
'The other half of the Anarchic Lands were unified, and Baruch Kingdom was founded with Wharton as the king…..'
Ernst closed the report. "Linley still established his territory as in the original story, but not an empire. There was also no Zassler, Rebecca, Leena, and Jenne on his side." Ernst smiles. Zassler, Rebecca, and Leena are doing great in the kingdom. They are living in the Blackshadow Castle. They are teaching in the Ernst Institute when they are bored.
Zassler is now a Saint-level Grand Magus Necromancer, while Rebecca and Leena are 8th rank Necromancer.
His parents James and Sarah with Uncles Douglas and Roger already returned from their travel after challenging Saints around the continent. Their strength now was just below the Prime Saints. Their Saint-level magical beast companions was led by Nadia, and now resting at Mt. Blackraven.
Anna was now a peak 9th rank Arch Magus and an early stage Saint-level warrior, while Jenne's strength is far from Anna. She was a 9th rank warrior, and 9th rank Arch Magus.
Their family Steward Greg and Andrea are both 9th rank warrior now.
King Monroe already step down from his position as king of Dawson Kingdom. He pass the kingship to his son, Yale, as the new king of the kingdom. He was happy touring around the continent.
While Ernst was thinking, a message suddenly appeared on his mind.
"Catherine, O'Brien, Dylin, Cesar, Ernst. Come to the Forest of Darkness at once. The Necropolis of the Gods is about to open. I decided to let all five of you enter and face life and death battle after the Saints comes out"
"Yes, Lord Beirut." All of them replied respectfully.
"Its finally time." Ernst smiles. He left his fire divine clone in the Blackshadow Castle. His original body disappeared from his former location and appears in the sky above the castle. He flew towards the Forest of Darkness.
In the O'Brien Empire, War God Mountain.
"Whoosh."
The War God O'Brien, suddenly appeared at the door to his cave. He noticed his eldest disciple, waiting for him at the entrance. War God O'Brien glanced at his disciple, "Fain spend the next period of time in training and in preparation…" The War God's voice was something off, but Fain's eyes lit up. He looked towards his master. "Master, are you sayin...?"
"Right. It should be starting again soo...Because, that person in the Forest of Darkness instructed us to go to go to him." After saying his words to his eldest disciple, he flew towards the Forest of Darkness.
On a mountain peak in the Mountain Range of Magical Beast. Dylin's face becomes sour. "Hmph. That old bastard." Dylin stared towards the east. He also received the summon from the Forest of Darkness. Although he dislike Beirut, he did dare to disobey him. And that Ernst, damn! I will take my revenge on you when the time comes."
"Swish." His body flashed, a dark-golden light streaked toward the eastern horizon then disappeared.
On the cloud-shrouded peak near the imperial capital of Yulan Empire. The High Priest was frowning. "Is it beginning? Who knows how many people will die this time." She let a sigh and then she disappeared.
Within the entertainment area of Rohault Empire, Cesar was having a good time, when suddenly his mood becomes bitter. "I'm just a new Deity, why should I go and report to you." Although he was annoyed, but he did not dare to disobey. A black shadow flashed and Cesar disappeared.
In the air above the Forest of Darkness, the five Deities meet-up. They glance at each other, with tacit understanding, they flew together. Sonic booms could be heard continuously. The War God O'Brien, with his fiery gaze. The quiet, natural High Priest. The cold, devilish Dylin. The lazy and unhappy Cesar. The young, mysterious Ernst.
"Catherine, you know I'm just a new Deity. I'm the weakest among the five us. If danger comes, I am the first to die." Cesar unhappy said.
"You are just a new a Deity and the weakest among the Deities here? You are exaggerating your words. Ernst is the newest Deity here. You train in the Law of Darkness that specializes in assassination and concealment. In terms of survival, you are the best among us." O'Brien said.
"Dylin, what's with your murderous looks? I already forgotten what you did to my previous home, so we are now even." Ernst said to Dylin.
"Hmph!" Dylin jus snorted.
"Dylin, congratulations on escaping the Gebados Planar Prison. Don't do bad things in the future again." The High Priest said.
While the five of them were chatting, suddenly an ancient voice rang out in their ears.
"Enough! All of you can chat later. Hurry!"
After hearing the voice, the five of them hurriedly flew towards the heart of the Forest of Darkness, leaving rays of lights in the sky.
The five Deities arrives at the metallic castle, they did not wait for long as the entrance of the metallic castle automatically opens.
"Enter."
They enters the metallic castle and walk directly to the meeting room. Inside the meeting room are plants and bookshelves and few small tables. In the center of meeting room, Beirut was sitting behind the table. There are also five vacant chairs for them.
Beirut observes the five Deities, while the five Deities observes the room and Beirut.
"Sit." Beirut orders them. They all sat on the chair and wait for Beirut to speak.
"Firstly, congratulation Ernst for promoting to a Deity. Train hard. You have a long way to go." Beirut said.
"Thank you, Lord Beirut."
"Now, let's talk about business. Next year, the Necropolis of the Gods will be open again. As usual, every Deity will have twenty-two slots allotted for you. It's up to you to fill-up all the slots, or just send the number of Saints you feel qualified to enter." Beirut pauses for a moment to observe their reactions.
"I've been observing the five of you for some time now. I noticed some of you are so relaxed, and did not work hard to go further in their training. Some of you are always meditating, without facing life and death struggles. Are you happy to be just Demigod, for the rest of your lives?"
"You need to broaden your horizons. Don't limit yourselves to this small place called Yulan continent. I decided, after the Saints finish their training in the Necropolis of the Gods, I let you enter. You will start at the twelfth floor. In there, there are many treasures such divine artifacts and divine sparks. If you have the ability, you can take them all. As you go higher, the treasures will also get better such God divine sparks, God artifacts, Highgod divine sparks and Highgod artifacts. But to get them, you have to bet your lives. If you are lucky, you can get them all." Beirut stop speaking as he saw Dylin, Catherine and O'Brien have eager looks towards the treasures while Cesar is still hesitating. However, Ernst shows no desire for the treasures but a fighting intent.
Beirut gives instructions and answered some of their questions, then he orders the five Deities to leave the castle.
Ernst original body returns to the back garden of the Blackshadow Castle. He sends a message by using his divine sense to the Saint-level combatants of the Dawson Kingdom.
After a while, one Saint-level expert after another arrives at the back garden of Blackshadow Castle. The people living in the castle are used to seeing Saints, so they are not surprise if more comes.
In the back garden, a long table with chairs are prepared for the meeting. The human Saints sit on the chair while Saint-level magical beast change into smaller size and laid down on the table. The Saints present are James, Sarah, Douglas, Roger, Anna, Zassler, Velocidragon Nadia, Firedragon Brad, Winged Pegasus Chrissy, Blackbear Horus, Dragoncat Alger and Thunderwing Pegasi Patty. Dawson Kingdom now have twelve Saint-level combatants.
Ernst set up his Godrealm so that the outsiders will not hear the contents of their meeting. "Everyone, the Deity from the Forest of Darkness, Lord Beirut had called me, High Priest, O'Brien, Cesar and Dylin to his place. In there, Lord Beirut tells us that the Necropolis of the Gods will be open again next year, so every Saint under every Deity should start to prepare. The Necropolis of the Gods only opens every one thousand years. Inside the Necropolis of the Gods, there are countless treasures such as divine artifacts and divine sparks. But to get these treasures, you have to face countless dangers and fight numerous experts from other planes imprisoned inside the Necropolis of the Gods. The death rate inside the Necropolis of the Gods is as high as ninety percent. Now, I ask you, knowing the dangers and opportunity, who wants to enter the Necropolis of the Gods?"
Everyone were silent, they are still digesting the information's Ernst said to them. Many of them shows hesitation especially the magical beast group.
Zassler breaks the silence. "Young master, I would like to enter the Necropolis of the Gods, but I know my strength. I'm still weak and might die once I enter." Zassler said honestly. After living for a long time in the Blackshadow Castle, he became friends with everyone. He treats the Blackshadow Castle as his new home.
The magical beast exchange their message mentally, after having a unanimous decision. Thunderwing Pegasi Patty speaks. "Young master, we have discussed privately, me, Brad, Horus, Chrissy and Alger are not strong enough to enter the Necropolis of the Gods. But Nadia is strong enough and willing to enter."
"Brother, I'm still not strong enough. I may be a Saint, but I'm just an early stage Saint. The Saints entering the Necropolis of the Gods either trained for centuries or millenniums. Besides, I do not need a divine spark to promote myself into a Deity. I believe in twenty years, I will be a Deity. Hehehehehe." Anna said.
Ernst finally speaks and look towards the magical beast and Zassler. Don't be discouraged and lost hope. Train hard. Who knows, maybe there is a chance for me to acquire divine sparks and let you become a Deity."
