The rise of the pervert primordial

Now that everything was settled, they finished their breakfast and went to the strategic room, Orson closed the door and everyone took a seat, this time Aster, Alice and Sarina sat in one side of the table next to each other while Orson, Sylas and Leister sat in front of them, Kana on the other hand was sitting in her mother legs.

While the old librarian was taking out books and what looked like scrolls from his spatial ring, Aster noticed Kana looked a bit down, she sometimes glanced at him or Alice before immediately feigning ignorance.

He didn’t need to be a genius to know what was she thinking, if they were from this galaxy even if they left, it would only take some hours or days in the worst-case scenario for Kana to pay them a visit, but that wasn’t the case, they were from another star cluster and probably even another stellar system so once they left it was almost a certain thing that she would not be able to see them again.

Sarina might look calm and all that, but in her mind, she was also feeling a bit depressed, “I finally found someone I that has made my heart beat faster… and we might not even get the chance to get to know each other, that’s not fair”, she thought.

Alice noticed the girls were feeling a bit down and the troubled expression her brother had and she sighed,

“I know what it feels like to be in uncertainty, we are going to try and contact mom and Aria anyway so cheer them up… but don’t take things too far okay?”, she whispered.

Aster smiled; he secretly fondles Alice’s ass a couple of times.

“That’s the Alice I know and love, ruthless on the outside but soft-hearted”, he answered.

Alice blushed a bit, “just do it you pervert of a brother”, she thought.

Aster stopped what he was doing and patted Kana’s head a couple of times, while he also placed one hand on Sarina’s shoulder.

“Right now, we have something in our hands but later… I want to talk with you two, so cheer up, I won’t be leaving any time soon, okay?”.

Kana’s eyes lit up, she repeatedly nodded.

“Yes, Kana will listen to what big brother Aster says!!!”.

Sarina also smiled.

“You heard her… besides I still haven’t repaid you for helping us so much ♥”.

The librarian was focuses on his books and Orson was also paying full attention to all the records that kept coming out of Leister spatial ring but Sylas on the other hand saw from the corner of his eyes, the little exchange between Aster, his daughter and granddaughter and he mentally smiled.

“Go for him girls, our galaxy might be opening to the rest of the universe, so it’s good to have a someone that knows more of the outside… in the family hahaha”.

Leister finally stopped taking things out of his spatial ring, the table was now full of books and other things, Aster roughly calculated that there were a couple of hundreds of them and yet they didn’t contain the majority of the information, instead of that the librarian had a dozen of crystals of different colors with numbers engraved on them.

“Let’s start with the books first, in case we don’t find anything useful… we will use the memory crystals which were left behind by all the previous kings of Luonto”.

The king was surprised, even he didn’t know of the existence of those crystals, apparently the librarian is in charge of handing the king an empty crystal to gather all the important information of his reigning period, but it only happens after the current king has a successor, if not for the urgency of the situation, Leister wouldn’t have shown them to Orson.

Luckily the books were marked with the number of the king to which epoch they belonged, so after organizing them there were approximately 20 kings before and each one left behind from 10 to 15 books or scrolls for those who lived way in the past, the only problem was that there were holes in the consecutiveness, there was nothing from the numbers 1,6,9 and 15.

And then the search started, the goal was to find how was Riga related to Luonto, what was below the royal castle, what was the origin of the corrupted and why they couldn’t leave this galaxy, in Aster’s case he also wanted to find out who left that the portal from which he entered, with those main subjects in mind everyone took a book from one epoch and started reading.

Well, everyone but Kana because no one knew what kind of information was in the books so Sarina was sharing her book with her just in case something bad appeared she could stop her daughter from seeing it, these books were not only to read, some had little rune arrays where you injected spirit energy and an illusion will be displayed in your head, like watching a video in your mind.

Aster casually took a book which had the number “2” on its front, the king of that period was called “Jordan”, most of the book talked about the many changes he implemented on Luonto during his mandate, but there was something that caught Aster’s attention.

“These weird runes are similar to the ones that were in the rocks around the portal back on Zartia”, he thought.

He showed his book to Alice and she agreed with him, there was nothing of value in the book he read but he decided to focus in this Jordan guy, time passed and at this point Aster had read nearly six books and now he was sure of one thing.

“I know which grave I have to demolish now”, he mumbled.

According to the books he has read so far, Jordan Millefiore was and still is the best rune master that has existed in this galaxy… but he was also not exactly loved by his subordinates, he was known as “the trickster” due to his bad habit of lying and scamming others.

When it was time to pass on the crown to the next king, he tried to keep the power by force which resulted in him being exiled to never be seen again.

Aster’s vindictive thoughts were interrupted by Sarina’s excited voice.

“I found something!!!”.

All the others stopped reading their books and waited for Sarina to explain her discovery.

“This book is from the time of the eighth king, “Valius Millefiore”, it says that when he was young, he got infatuated with one of the princesses of Riga continent, the previous king was long dead when he became a king so his mother acted as the ruler for some time”.

“When he asked his mother to arrange a marriage with that princess, as a way to both unite the two continents and get the woman he liked… he was nearly beaten to death by his mother, when he sought for an explanation, the queen told him a story she casually heard her father-in-law mentioning a couple of days before he was assassinated”.

​ “The first corrupted ones were, the descendants of a member of a Millefiore and a Riga… in other words somehow the result of combining their genes will result in a corrupted, according to the history we know, Valius gave up on his love interest and he had two children with the partner designated by his mother, but here it says that he secretly met that princess a couple of times and they… had a daughter”.

“Valius died due to sadness, because his first son was killed by a corrupted which was never identified, in the last page of the book it says that he had imprisoned his daughter along with the princess he loved in an unknown place, although it doesn’t mention the reason”.

Orson had a complex expression on his face.

“There is no books nor memory crystal of the ninth king, which means both of the sons of Valius were killed before having descendants”.

Sylas nodded.

“Yes, the book I read was from the tenth king and here it mentions that he was a distant relative which was adopted by Valius’s wife when her children and husband died, because there was no heir for the throne”.

“Then let’s focus in the books left by the ones that were kings before or after the ones that didn’t leave anything behind… let’s see what else can we find”.

The king and Sylas did what Leister suggested, Sarina was also going to follow the same pattern but she saw that both Aster and Alice grabbed another book left by the second king which caught her attention.

“Is there a specific reason to keep looking at the books of the second king?”.

Aster nodded.

“Yeah, the portal we used to come here, had the same runic symbols I have been seeing in these specific books and apparently this guy was the best rune master this place has ever seen, so I want to know two things, first, if he was the one that created that portal and if that is the case then… I’m going to destroy his grave for being an asshole”.

Sarina had a weird smile on her face.

“He was exiled so no one knows what happened to him, still he is somewhat related to Orson so don’t you think it’s a bit exaggerated to do that?”.

Aster shook his head.

“No, that portal was a trap, I have been thinking why it only targeted me, at first my theory was that the guy who created it had something against teams but… now I understand that it judged my battle prowess compared to my cultivation realm, that’s why it literally tried to get rid of me and when I successfully left the dimensional tunnel, I appeared high in the sky at a distance from which falling impact would have killed me”

Sarina frowned her eyebrows.

“But why would the second king set such a thing?”.

Aster sighed.

“My theory is that he succeeded in leaving this place, the portal was left behind probably because he planned to return, to get something from this place but who knows what happened after that, maybe the ruler of the Rodia star cluster got news of him and he was captured or something like that”.

Everyone’s attention was drawn by the sounds of someone knocking on the door, Sylas stood up and opened the door just to be punched in the face and receive a scold.

“What the hell are you doing moving, when I specifically told you to rest, you old bastard!!!”.

Aster looked for the origin of the punch, and he saw a middle-aged woman wearing a white robe, he couldn’t hold back his laugh.

“Well that answer my question of who was the “lucky” lady”, he thought.
