Chapter 1224 Simurgh III
“What will you do next, Champion Equinox?” The High Priestess Estet stated as Adrian already got what he came to the western continent for.
“I shall focus on hunting for the other Vestiges of the Sun God. Two more should be doable in a span of time given the right circumstances. I should focus on finding the one that has the vestige that represents the evening sun. We have a score to settle after all.” Adrian stated.
“If that is the case then we wish for your success. If you are ever in the western continent, do not be a stranger to us and call for us when you need to deal with something here. We will always be happy to help you.” Sadiki stated.
“I apologize because I cannot help you in the quest to find the vestiges at the moment. I am also looking for the other items to restore the power of the Temple of the Sun. It is not easy restoring a faith back to its glory when all records about it was almost erased.” Cairo stated as he still needs to restore the faith back to the Temple of the Sun.
“I understand as my best friend was also in your shoes and it took him quite a long time to revive a faith as well. It would be even more difficult for you because the Sun God Ra is not present at the moment. I am pretty sure that we might cross paths on the journey to restore the Sun God.
Do not be a stranger when that happens. You might be a guild member by then so remember to go to Avalon when I call for you. We should add each other in our friends list.” Adrian stated which made Cairo almost squeal in happiness.
Cairo’s happiness is so prevalent that he actually posted that Adrian added him on his friends list in a forum reserved for the latter’s fans. Posts saying that he is one lucky person started flooding the forum. Some cursed him out of jealousy in a playful manner while others congratulated but begged in how he did it.
“Thank you for your help once again. This is my farewell to you as time waits for no one. A being made of the powers of darkness is not easy to catch after all. Vitae and Mortem, let us go back home.” Adrian stated as he opened a portal out of the hidden temple with the twins to head back towards Avalon.

Adrian reached Avalon and he is immediately surrounded by the elders of the Church of the Twin Gods. The elders surrounded him because they noticed an increased amount of divine energy from the Tree of Life and Death. The increase was so potent that it increased the buffs that is given by the Tree of Life and Death to those that visit Avalon.
The air became cleaner and the natural regeneration of the people in Avalon hastened. Even the plants that are grown in Avalon started to grow faster while the soil became richer. The monsters in Pann’s ranch could also be seen rather tame and happy. The life of everyone living there increased in quality.
“Let me explain. Make sure that the twin prophets are rested. They have exerted themselves to a certain degree as well as the Silent Death Order.” Adrian stated as he began explaining what happened to the elders.
Adrian summoned Saena in the territory and she immediately exploded in divine energy. The appearance of a divine beast in an area is very significant as they are extremely rare. They also enrich the lives in the territory which is why people would often choose to revere or appease the divine beast so that it stays.
Saena then saw the eyes of reverence that the people are giving her and felt proud of herself. She felt proud but not to the point that she looks down on everyone because she knows that it was not just her that made it happen. Her master made sure that she becomes a divine beast which made her appreciate Adrian more.
Saena then instinctively wanted to fly towards the Tree of Life and Death, but she noticed the twin prophets as they wanted to ride her. Since Saena is now bonded to the tree of life and death, she is also quite fond of the twins even more as she now emits a motherly aura. The elders are a bit surprised that a divine beast let the twin prophets ride her, but they calmed themselves when the twins enjoyed the flight.
Seeing that Saena has grown accustomed to her new body, Adrian summoned his other soulbounds so that they could rest in Avalon. All of his soulbounds followed Saena towards the tree of life and death as they wanted to congratulate her. She is like an elder sister to the others as she is third in line. The elders returned back to their tasks when they were satisfied by Adrian’s answers and are even pleasantly skipping.
The appearance of a divine beast in Avalon that is bonded with the tree of life and death meant that they now have a protector beast that represents the church. The elders told Adrian that Saena could become a symbol that makes the influence of the church spread farther as anyone will want to see a divine beast.
[Saena has been designated as the Divine Beast of the Church of the Twin Gods.] 𝘦.𝘤𝘰𝑚
[All buffs in Avalon will be increased by 50% when Saena is present in the territory.]
[Soulbound Saena could stay at Avalon indefinitely until summoned even if you are far from her.]
Adrian chuckled as he did not expect that Saena will become a designated divine beast but is quite happy for her. She actually dislikes being in the Soul Chamber as she likes to spread her wings. Now that she can freely stay in Avalon as long as Adrian does not summon her, then she will have the freedom to fly the skies that she deserves..
