The rise of the pervert primordial

While they were happily chatting about their future life at a sect, a few kilometers away Sylas and Orson weren’t having an easy time, the intensity of the retrospective was stronger at the beginning and then it reduced as time went by.

In Aster’s case he managed to resist being dragged into that state, the girls did enter it but they came to reality not too long after because they easily noticed the change in their usual way of thinking, especially Aria since she has gone through something similar when she was training to reach the spirit opening.

Sylas closed his eyes while frowning his brows, he suddenly felt angry remembering his wife and how she died and not only that, something that has been bugging him is that if not for Aster, Sarina and Kana might have had suffered a destiny worse than death.

But all that storm in his mind disappeared, he stood up started speaking in a low voice.

“My Elisa died with a proud smile on her face, for us parents our children are more important than our lives, I properly exterminated corrupted and armies from Riga to honor her and thirty years later I found a new source of happiness in my life”.

…

Sylas’s eyes opened and then he shouted.

“My carelessness led that little girl to the forest which made her meet the best possible partner… I don’t regret anything!!!”.

The atmosphere around Sylas changed, he felt as if a weight has been lifted from his chest, while he will never forget about his wife, now that Riga ceased to exist, she would have wanted him to keep on with his life.

Milia was the best friend of Sarina’s mother and she took care of Sylas’s wounds in her stead, after Elisa died Sylas lost himself in the battlefield, he didn’t care in what state he ended as long as he defeated the enemies in front of him.

But that changed thanks to Milia confronting him, “Do you think your daughter isn’t suffering, while you her father is drowning in bloodlust, she doesn’t someone to rely on”, her words hit him like a bucket of cold water.

Sylas silently bowed towards the sky and then sat down cross legged, he took out a flower which was preserved in a transparent crystal, the first one took a flower and then planted two in the field Elisa left behind was him.

“Even when you aren’t here anymore, you are still giving me new lessons… sigh”, no one knew it but in battle terms although Sylas was known for not having met defeat ever, that wasn’t the truth, in a one-on-one fight, Elisa was stronger than him, that’s why she fought against the assassin which was sent by Riga which resulted in her death.

Sylas looked at the sky and he put his hands together as he mumbled

“Don’t worry about us anymore, that lass has found a good partner… a bit shameless if you ask me, but I can’t imagine him ever doing something harmful for her”.

He then turned to see Orson which was covered in sweat, which was understandable as a member of the royal family he was taught that Luonto represented benevolence while Riga was evil itself, which wasn’t totally a lie, but the royal family had its fair share of psychopaths.

Ultimately, he was a descendant of the ones that caused a lot of suffering to the people of Prasil, but he also had his turning point thanks to Aster, the gatekeeper wouldn’t have accepted his death if it weren’t for the fact that he considered Aster have a backing strong enough to deal with Riga.

Unlike Sylas, Orson remained sat down, he slowly opened his eyes and then mentioned his realization.

“I can’t change what my family did, but that doesn’t mean I’m like them, I will give my best without losing my way and then one day I will be worthy enough to be called king of Prasil, just like that person”.

Only now Orson noticed Sylas nodding at him.

“It seems we owe him one, in a matter of days, that kid brought a big chance to this galaxy… I would like to see what will he achieve in the future”.

Orson agreed, in the supposed case that they managed to not be destroyed by Riga, the best outcome possible would have been becoming their lab rats and source of nourishment, so Aster’s visit did affect them.

He couldn’t help but laugh and then shook his head.

“Although he probably only helped for the sake of Sarina and little Kana, as a king… no as a son of Luonto I’m really glad that he landed near Oak Heart city”.

“It’s done, everyone please return so we can go to the next node”.

Everyone heard Eris’s voice which made them walk back to where they first appeared, of course Sylas and Orson had to wait until Aster and the others picked them up, because the barrier Lilia made for them was static.

Sarina noticed her father had a different air around him, and she knew he also benefitted from this visit to the outer space, she also had her own but she needed to discuss it with either Lilia, Eris or Mylene and now they had other things to do, so she decided to wait until they were travelling in the spaceship.

Sylas smiled at his daughter and they returned together to where Eris was, speaking of Eris she looked at Mylene’s still amazed expression and she couldn’t resist the curiosity to ask.

“You look as if you have seen a ghost, what happened?”.

Mylene shrugged.

“I would like to see you not being in awe at the sight of a kid below 20 years old just using a few seconds to get out of a retrospective inspired by the first time he witnesses faint traces of laws that linger in the outer space”.

Lilia proudly smiled, “Told you no matter in which plane we are in, my darling is the best ♥”.

Aster shook his head.

“I will leave that inspiration for later, how did it go Eris?”.

Eris threw a couple of things to Orson and Sylas, a couple of red keys to be precise one for each of them.

“Although there are four nodes which operate separately, two of them are the main ones and the others are for support, I will only give you access to the support ones, the keys were created using your blood so only you two can activate them”.

Eris waved her hand and she showed them a key similar to the one she handed them, but this one had some rune patters moving around on its surface, she used the key as if she was opening an invisible floating door, and a space portal opened.

“With my key I can open this un any part of this galaxy, but you will only be able to do it in Prasil, the destination will be the same one as where the portal made by the second king goes to… if my memory doesn’t fail it’s a low-level planet called Zartia right?”.

Aster nodded, “Yes, once we are on the other side, I will ask someone trustable to watch over Zartia, so in case you need to leave this galaxy, there won’t be any trouble”.

Sylas and Orson kept their keys in their rings and they left this asteroid for the next node, even when Eris was wounded back then she didn’t make the amateur mistake of setting the nodes of the formation close to each other.

Lilia literally transported them to the other side of the galaxy, this time the node was built in a natural satellite which orbited a lifeless planet, they landed and then the process repeated itself.

Sylas sighed, the planet in front of them used to be full of life in ancient times, but according to the books of history, a plague fell and all the living beings died, now that they had the secret records Aster found in the treasury of Riga, they knew that it was the second the king the one that caused all those deaths.

He patted Aster’s shoulder, maybe their galaxy will have a tough time integrating to whatever stellar system they might be in, but they still had some time to grow stronger and if the worse comes to happen, they were left with a chance of survival in the form of the portal Eris set up for them.

“Thanks son in law, although we will focus in getting stronger, a route of escape is always a good idea… to not finish like those guys”.

This time they didn’t wander around and maybe because Eris already modified the other node, but it took her less time to change this one, about half an hour later everything was done, now the keys of Sylas and Orson had a patter like Eris’s one but it was simpler compared to hers.

Sarina and Kana wanted to say goodbye to Milia so Lilia took them back to the royal castle in Prasil, the party still continued but Milia was waiting for them in the throne room and no one but the members of the royal court were there.

As soon as they appeared Milia lifted Kana and hugged her tight, in the absence of her friend she treated Kana as if she was her granddaughter, so now that she knew there was a chance, they will never see again of course she felt resilient to let her go.

She also approached Sarina and hugged her.

“I will miss you two little girls… Elisa would be happy to see you following your dreams”.

She then looked at Aster and gave him a serious gaze.

“They are like my own children, please take care of them”.

Aster smiled.

“That’s a given; they are a part of my family now, don’t worry if the chance comes, we will come to pay you all a visit”.

Milia nodded and let go of them, Lester wasn’t exactly friendly but even he couldn’t help but feel a bit sad since Kana was adored by all of them.

Sylas patted Kana’s head and laughed.

“The next time you see me, I will be so strong you won’t recognize me”.

Now that everyone had said goodbye Aster looked at his mother and Lilia transported them to an inhabited area before she took out the spaceship on which she arrived.

Aster smiled at the girls and then invited them to board in.

“Let’s go ladies, there is a new galaxy waiting for us”, “And there are debts to be paid… Isaac your time has come”, he mentally added.
