Chapter 1107: The Runaway City’s Arcane Defense, Aurora’s Divine Mastery
Excitement bloomed within them-Paradise had gained another divine being, which meant their forces would become even more powerful. With the threats they encountered growing ever stronger, this was a blessing for them.
Aurora nodded. “You may raise your heads,” she said, gesturing for them to straighten their posture.
They straightened their postures.
“What’s going on, Chief?” Zogar asked, refocusing on Orion. Even though the atmosphere was calm now, with beautiful rays of sunlight shining down on them, he knew Orion wouldn’t bring Aurora out without a reason, especially with the unknown enemy still at large.
“We have a plan to handle the enemy…” Orion replied, explaining how they intended to defeat the unknown divine being within the Sleeping Fox Runaway City.
After he finished, thoughtful expressions appeared on their faces.
“If Goddess Aurora believes she can do it, then I see no reason not to try it,” Zogar responded.
“I’ll help in any way I can to ensure the plan goes smoothly,” Seth added.
“I’ll do the same,” Iris agreed.
“Alright, we’ll start with the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City,” Orion said, leading the way. Aurora followed him, with Seth, Zogar, and Iris soaring behind.
Soon, they arrived above the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City and landed at the main gates of the Royal Cave.
Immediately, a Dragmin man with bronze skin, leathery wings, and hooves dressed in dragon armour appeared before them.
It was none other than Greroth. Behind him was a group of God’s Chosen, consisting of other Dragmins and Aarakrocas.
Surprisingly, Lakul was also among them. They both bowed respectfully towards them. “We greet the leaders of Paradise!” Greroth shouted, his tone filled with deep reverence. “We greet the leaders of Paradise!” The Gods’ Chosens and Lakul echoed behind him. Orion gestured for them to stand straight.
“I’m here to introduce you to one of Paradise’s divine beings, Goddess Aurora. She’s here to cast a protection spell over the entire Trekking Flamingo Runaway City before we confront the enemy,” Orion said, gesturing towards Aurora.
The moment Greroth and the God’s Chosen heard his words, their eyes widened in shock and amazement.
After the inhabitants of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City had migrated to their Runaway City, they were informed of everything that had transpired, especially Greroth, who was told about the goddess the Supreme Leader had brought to their Runaway City.
Now, another goddess had come to the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City, entirely different from the one they had heard about, leaving them dumbfounded by the number of divine beings in Paradise’s ranks.
Was there a goddess factory in Paradise?
However, as their thoughts calmed, relief and security soon washed over them. Their devotion and confidence in Paradise grew even stronger.
Lakul and Greroth wore relaxed expressions, their shoulders visibly dropping as they exhaled in relief. They believed that with the goddess’s protection, the enemy wouldn’t target the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City, which eased their hearts.
Regardless of who the enemy was, they were confident that Paradise would handle them.
Aurora released her divine energy, and a suffocating sensation filled the air. The entire Trekking Flamingo Runaway City trembled as a transparent dome appeared in the sky above it before vanishing. The trembling subsided, and the oppressive atmosphere lifted.
A few of the God’s Chosen coughed violently, some collapsing to catch their breath.
Seeing this, Aurora waved her right hand, and a wave of divine energy flowed into them, revitalizing their bodies.
The Gods’ Chosens immediately stood, bowing respectfully toward Aurora for her care. They were now even more confident of the divine nature of Paradise’s protectors.
Aurora nodded and turned to Orion. “I’m done. I’m confident the enemy won’t attempt to infiltrate the Trekking Flamingo Runaway City like it did with the Sleeping Fox Runaway -City.”
Hearing her words, Greroth, Lakul, and the others clenched their fists in excitement. They wanted to roar with laughter at the thought of being under the direct protection of a goddess, but they restrained their emotions and kept their lips sealed.
“Let’s move to the next,” Orion said, sweeping his gaze over the individuals before them with a nod. He then soared into the sky, with the others following behind.
….
Elenora, the previous leaders of the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City, and a group of Gods’ Chosens all felt their emotions stir, eyes widening in shock as they heard the Supreme Leader’s words.
Soon after, a wave of divine pressure descended upon them, causing their knees to grow weak and collapse to the ground. A transparent dome appeared above the Wanderlust Travelling Totoirse Runaway City. But as quickly as it came, the transparent dome and pressure vanished, and a wave of strength entered their bodies, revitalizing them and forcing them to stand upright.
“Thank you for your direct protection, Goddess Aurora!” Elenora said emotionally, being the first to speak. Even though this was all because they were now under Paradise’s protection, she didn’t forget to appreciate the goddess’s efforts.
The others behind her followed suit. They realized it would be disastrous to lose the favour of a goddess while still being under Paradise’s protection.
Aurora nodded at them before turning her attention to Orion. “I’m done,” she said.
Orion nodded in understanding and turned to Zogar and the others. “We’ll be leaving,” he said before soaring high with Aurora. They both vanished into the sky, disappearing on the horizon.
…..
It took several minutes before they arrived at the Sleeping Fox Runaway City. Looking down at the city below, Orion said, “Here you go. You’re free to do as you wish.”
Aurora nodded and summoned her sceptre, gripping it firmly. Immediately, the bright ball of light at its centre expanded, her colourful wings emerged, and a burst of Vylkr and divine energy overflowed from her body, transforming into a fog that lingered around her, following her every gesture.
Her eyes took on an inky black and warm white tint. Focusing her gaze on the Sleeping Fox Runaway City, Aurora stretched out her sceptre and tapped its bottom in the air as though tapping the ground beneath her.
Thick, tendril-like Vylkr energy flowed from the base of the spectre, accompanied by several wisps of divine power, which dissolved into the tendrils, enabling them to grow larger. Soon, the countless tendrils began to take the shape of winged figures, their faces obscured by the wisps of divine energy, though their dread-filled forms were undeniable.
It seemed like a dreadful calamity had descended upon the still and silent Sleeping Fox
Runaway City.
“Since the Vylkr energy can feed on other attributes and materials to grow stronger, I shape it into constructs and allow the divine energy to act as a catalyst for their ever-adaptive forms. This way, I don’t need to expend the required amount of Vylkr energy for continuous growth, and the adaptive constructs can adjust to whatever enemy or obstacle they encounter. However, I still retain some control over what form they take,” Aurora explained. “This is a divine skill I’ve created-The Eternal Chaos Legion,” Aurora added, looking at Orion with a smile. Though she had shown Orion her abilities before, she had been working on this while he spent time with the rest of their family at the manor.
Upon hearing Aurora’s explanation, Orion was shocked and left speechless. This was the nightmare of every warrior in Paradise. He focused his eyes on the large winged constructs, which shrank and split into countless more miniature Vylkr vines when they touched the Sleeping Fox Runaway City, staring at their energy levels.
[ Energy Level – ???]
Unfortunately, like Aurora’s energy, it was unreadable. Although Orion understood the difficulty in constructing an Energy Mask Spectrometer capable of reading those on the level of the divine, he hoped Seraphina would make progress soon.
With no way to quantify their abilities except through the scale of the disastrous power they had displayed, it was left to their imagination whether they could ever bridge that gap. After a few moments of silence, Orion finally spoke. “You’re amazing. I didn’t expect you to develop such a terrifying divine skill.”
Aurora’s smile widened at Orion’s praise. “With my capabilities, it was only a matter of time before I created such a divine skill. But you’re right, darling—I am amazing.” In terms of power, she was now one of Paradise’s strongest, so she wasn’t about to be modest in the face of her husband’s admiration.
“Do you want to observe what happens to the enemy while I crush it all at once?” Aurora asked, knowing Orion wouldn’t be satisfied until he witnessed the destruction firsthand. This was her way of ensuring that he did.
The countless Vylkr winged constructs, with vine-like tendrils, had completely ensnared the Sleeping Fox Runaway City in their grip. The wings were wrapped around its structure, forcing it to compress with every passing second. The sound of metal bending and grinding against
itself echoed for miles.
Fortunately, there was no life nearby to investigate what was happening.
This was the end of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City.
