Book 10: Chapter 33: Forget (3)

Madeleine looked a bit absentminded, as though she was confused by what Little Yang and Dyon were talking about. It was only after Little Yang mentioned the Pegasus Clan that she suddenly remembered that Dyon had just asked her about it.

Why did it seem like the Pegasus Clan was always forgotten? Dyon even felt that he hadn’t even heard their name until the Federation was formed. How was it possible for him to neglect such a powerful Clan continuously?

They didn’t have much of a presence, they didn’t even control any danger zones on the celestial floors, and they seemed to slip your mind the moment you shifted your attention…

‘The Unicorn race the Pegasus Clan descended from is part of a subspecies known as the Fey. However, these Fey are very different from the Fey you encountered within the Ragnor Clan though the legends are somewhat connected, albeit loosely.’ Little Yang explained.

Little Yin jumped in. ‘The Fey aren’t actually of the same subspecies even though they’re treated as such. In reality, they don’t share the same gene pool, but rather share the same… affliction.’

“Affliction?” Madeleine and Dyon practically spoke at once.

‘Dyon, how long has it been since you took your dao tribulation?’

Dyon frowned, not understanding the purpose of the question.

“It’s been … almost 13 almost 14, maybe 15 years since then now. Why?”

‘Well, weren’t you very eager to see the Lightning Sparrow’s inheritance? Why haven’t you touched it yet despite all the time you’ve had on your hands?’ Little Yang questioned.

Dyon blinked, unable to come up with an answer.

In these past few years, one of the greatest mysteries he faced was the question of why his lightning dao seemed incomplete. The Lightning Sparrow inheritance within his Lightning Willow Mask really might have a solution to this plight. And, even if it didn’t, it would provide a great boost to his comprehension and combat strength.

So why hadn’t he?

‘It’s simple. You forgot.’

Dyon almost scoffed. He? Forget? How was that possible? But the more he thought about it, the more he realized this seemed like the only explanation.

His avatar projection within his inner world had been mastering countless techniques in these last few years. He had already reached the One with Self Realm in all of the Heaven Grade techniques he set out to master thanks to his Immortal Sense. So why hadn’t he even touched that inheritance?

‘The Fey are a group of species cursed by their overwhelming beauty. In various ways, these species are wiped from our minds or often aren’t able to appear in the first place.

‘The Lightning Sparrow is cursed with overwhelming speed, but even those who are aware of its existence find it difficult to remember it… The unicorn’s image is also cursed to be forgotten.’

Dyon’s heart suddenly seized as he remembered something.

He had obtained a Higher Existence Unicorn Corpse from Pride Clan’s blood pool! How could he have forgotten?! Such a massive boon for the strength of his Mortal Alliance was massive!

Although Junior’s soul was too weak to control it, as was Chenglei’s, Dyon, as the original body of the former, and the beast tamer of the latter, had their comprehension of death on top of having the strongest soul of the Mortal Plane.

While others had to worry about having their minds shattered by the Martial Intent of a Higher Existence corpse puppet, Dyon’s Immortal Sense would practically make him immune!

How could he have forgotten something like this?!

Maybe the scariest part about it all was that despite the fact Dyon was fiercely berating himself, he was already slowly forgetting what he was even so angry about in the first place.

“This is impossible…” Dyon mumbled. “… Shouldn’t The Seal protect my mind? Shouldn’t my Immortal Sense have some sort of effect?”

‘The fact you remembered the existence of a unicorn corpse that only you were aware of is proof enough that your Immortal Sense and The Seal are effective.

‘In ancient times, the only way to prevent this forgetfulness was by making sure enough people were aware of what you wanted to remember. Back then, Little Yin and me couldn’t enter the Ancient Battlefield with you. So you just remembered something about a Fey that only you were there to witness. You simply don’t understand how impressive this is.’

Despite these words, Dyon felt bitter. “But…”

‘Don’t be down, Big Brother Dyon.’ Little Yin said sweetly. ‘You yourself said that you could feel the Treasures of the 33 Heavens growing stronger. This isn’t their peak strength.

‘The Seal can protect your mind from other mortal human powerhouses, but the Curse of the Fey is placed down by the Heavens themselves. Unless you become strong enough to look down on the Heavens, it will always affect you to some extent. Even those 33 treasures aren’t infallible.’

Dyon grit his teeth.

Something like the unicorn corpse in his possession should be a major trump card. Meaning, it should be kept hidden. But, if he kept it hidden, it would be difficult to remember that he even had it. What the hell kind of fate was this?

Little Yang sighed. ‘Thankfully, the Pegasus Clan only have very small amounts of diluted Unicorn Blood. Still, it’s very hard for them to make any grand memorable impressions. Because of this, you still have to be wary of them.’

Just as Dyon was about to respond, his head suddenly snapped in the direction of the Celestial Beast Mystical World. In that moment, a wide grin spread across his handsome features.

After so many years, his master had finally completely reconstructed her body!
