Chapter 1124 The End Of A Fairy Tale [Part 7]
“Who are you?”
All the golden eye balls started to giggle, after hearing Lux’s quest.
Their giggles were like countless peeling bells that resonated within the entirety of the universe, reaching far and wide.
“I know where the Old Ones broke through of Old, and where they shall break through again.”
“I know where they trod the multiverse’s fields, and where they tread them still, and why no one can behold them as they tread.”
“I am the Key and the Guardian of the Gate. Past, present, future, all are one with me.”
“I am Yog-Sothoth.”
All the golden eyes then merged together, forming a gigantic golden gate with countless eyes that were looking at Lux with different emotions.
Happiness, sadness, anger, loneliness, pity, ridicule, disdain, and all the myriad emotions of the world, and beyond, focused on a single being, who was only as big as a grain of sand in front of the majestic gate.
Slowly, but surely, the gate slowly opened, and Lux found himself slowly being pulled inside it.
“I give you one last piece of advice, Lux Von Kaizer,” Yog-Sothoth said. “No one alive in this Multiverse can defeat your foe. Your Fairy Tale has not ended, I am looking forward to its conclusion.”
The Gigantic Golden Gate closed as Lux’s body passed through it.
Soon, it disappeared from existence, not leaving even a single trace behind.
———————————
One year after Lux’s battle against Daniel in the Abyss…
Cracks started to form over the giant block of crystal that stood at the location where the great battle between the Abyss, and the defenders of the Six Kingdoms took place.
With every minute that passed, more cracks appeared, until finally, the entire crystal shattered and turned into particles of light.
A soft thud was heard, as the body of a Half-Elf collapsed on the ground. Snow was raining from the sky, covering the entirety of the land in white.
Lux lay unmoving, his face pale, not from the cold, but because his body was still in a state of hibernation.
His soul had just returned to his body, so it would take some time before it merged with it completely.
A few minutes passed when a set of footsteps was heard trudging through the snowy landscape.
After seeing that the block of crystal had disappeared from its spot, the steps quickened, almost running to the place where a person that was lying on the ground was slowly being covered in snow.
Asmodeus, waved his hand, sending the snow that covered the young man flying, revealing his Master, whom he hadn’t seen for more than a year.
His hands trembled as he made a gesture to make Lux’s body float in front of him.
The Lich King then pressed his hand over the Half-Elf’s chest, to see if it was beating.
A look of happiness flashed across his face as he heard a faint heartbeat.
Although it was faint, it was enough to tell him that his Master was alive and well.
“Master has returned,” Asmodeus announced to his comrades, who were scattered all over Elysium. All of them were busy raising their forces for the return of their Master.
Almost all of them, with the exception of Asmodeus, had not yet reached the quota that they had set in the beginning.
Because of this, they couldn’t return to their Master’s side, as per their agreement.
“Worry not, I will look after Master while all of you continue your task,” Asmodeus stated. “He will take some time to heal, so use this opportunity to gather your army in his honor.”
Diablo, and the others, all voiced their reply, and asked Asmodeus to take care of Lux while they were away.
Now that their Master had returned, all of them redoubled their efforts to bring their own hundred-thousand armies to fruition.
Asmodeus then carried Lux’s body, taking him away from the cold and harsh conditions of his surroundings.
The environment of Solais had degraded as the miasma slowly encroached upon the territories of the Six Kingdoms.
The Abyssal Invasion had somehow hastened the effect of the world’s destruction, forcing the inhabitants of Solais, who were affected by the miasma, to flee into Elysium.
Despite the ongoing war between the Abyssal Creatures that managed to gain a foothold in Elysium, and the Defenders who stood in their way, the Solaians had no choice but to flee to this world.
Now, among the Six Kingdom, only four were left, including Barbatos Academy, who was at the farthest point where the miasma was spreading.
The Barbarian Kingdom, where the battle took place, was also slowly being devoured by the miasma that threatened to corrupt and kill anything it touched.
Asmodeus was already planning on moving the giant crystal away from the Barbarian Kingdom in order to ensure his Master’s safety.
Although Lux had returned to Solais, none of them had felt it.
Technically, his body was still Half-Dead, and was only in preservation mode.
According to the Lich King’s estimate, Lux would need one more month before he fully regained his consciousness.
In order to hasten his recovery, Asmodeus planned to take Lux to Espoir Frieden, and asked Hereswith to help the Half-Elf receive the help of the World Tree.
The World Tree was the driving force that gave the Elves their power.
Despite only being Half, Lux still had Elven blood flowing through his veins.
Because of this, the Lich King believed that the World Tree would be able to help his Master, who had finally returned to their side, after a year of being frozen in time.
Fortunately, Hereswith was there when he arrived at Espoir Frieden.
With her help, Lux was able to gain access to the World Tree, and was allowed to rest in one of its roots.
They didn’t know that by doing so, the World Tree would take the initiative to transfer a quarter of its lifespan, and power to the Half-Elf, allowing him to become the youngest Saint in both Solais and Elysium.
