Novel Full Chapter 593 The Four Treasures Of The Tuatha De Danann
The Fomorian King had been killed during the great war thousands of years ago. After the defeat of their race, they hid themselves from the world.
Since then, although they were sighted every now and then, most of the Fomorians kept a very low profile and no longer made waves in the lands of Midgard.
But, that could soon change.
Once they came to recognize a King, whom they would follow with everything they had, one of the most powerful forces in the world could stage a comeback.
“They came here to see if the descendants of the Firbolgs are still thriving and are also on the lookout for the Stone of Destiny.” The Elven Queen frowned. “We all know the answer to the first matter, so let’s talk about the Stone of Destiny. Do any of you have any idea where it is?”
“That’s right,” the Fairy Queen commented. “If we know where it is, then couldn’t we all protect it and ensure that it won’t fall into their hands?”
King Austen, the Dwarven King, as well as Seff kept their silence as they glanced at Professor Rinehart, who was busy cleaning his glasses.
“The Stone of Destiny was lost during the great war here in Eastshire,” Professor Rinehart commented before placing his glasses back on his face. “No one knows where it is, and it’s said that the Firbolgs made sure to hide it thoroughly so that the Fomorians wouldn’t be able to reclaim it.”
The Headmaster of Brynhildr Academy paused for a bit before continuing his explanation.
“The Stone of Destiny is one of the four treasures that the Tuatha De Danann left to mankind,” Professor Rinehart explained. “I’m sure that some of you already know about them. But for the sake of those who don’t, let me explain them one by one.
“The first one is the Lia Fail or the Stone of Destiny. It’s an artifact that was said to give a cry whenever someone worthy of being called a ‘King’ appears in its vicinity.
“The second treasure is the Cauldron of Dagda. It’s a cauldron containing an endless supply of food, and anyone who eats from it will have their health and vigor restored.
“The third is The Sword Of Light, Claíomh Solais. It’s also referred to as the Sword of Nuada. When drawn, this sword will not let anyone escape from it alive. No one will be able to run from it, for its target would be forced to fight its wielder in battle.
“Last but not the least is the Luin of Celtchar, also known as the Spear of Lugh. It goes by many names. Sometimes, it’s called the Slaughterer, at other times, it’s called Crimall. There’s also a few who call it Areadbhair.”
Ethan, who had been told this information two days ago by Professor Rinehart, had a calm expression on his face.
However, when he heard about it the first time, he couldn’t help but feel shocked. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect that the spear he randomly picked from the treasury of Dawnbreaker Academy would be one of the Four Treasures of the Tuatha De Danann.
Professor Rinehart, who didn’t know what Ethan was thinking, continued his speech.
“When these four artifacts are gathered under the same banner, they can create a force that could turn the tide of battle. As you may already know, The Sword Of Light, Claíomh Solais, is in the safekeeping of the Kingdom of Eastshire.
“The Cauldron of Dagda, as well as the Stone of Destiny, are nowhere to be found. It is truly unfortunate that we are not aware of their location.”
“And what about the Spear of Lugh?” Oscar Asta asked with a smile on his face. “Are you going to say that you don’t know its whereabouts?”
Professor Rinehart nodded. “Indeed. I have no idea where this spear is. But according to legend, no battle was ever sustained against it or against the man who held it. Of course, this is only what was said in the record books. As to whether it is true or not is still up for debate.”
Oscar Asta no longer said anything and just smirked.
There were only a select number of people who saw how the Fomorians reacted when they saw the Flaming Spear that hovered around Ethan during the battle inside their Domain.
If none of the people present in that scene were to say anything, no one else would know who its current wielder was.
Throughout the exchange, Ethan kept a poker face, which he had learned to do in the Lands of Alastor.
Although he thought that Oscar would declare that he was in the possession of Areadbhair, the Patriarch of the Asta Family kept his peace as if he was planning to use this as a bargaining chip against him.
‘This sly old fox.’ Sebastian shook his head inside Ethan’s Sea of Consciousness. ‘He sure is petty.’
‘Very petty.’ Ethan’s Other Half nodded. ‘But, he is playing smart. He mentioned it to keep Ethan on his toes, but he didn’t persist on it. I think he wants to keep the information that two of the Treasures of the Tuatha De Danann are in the lands of Eastshire quiet.’
‘I should have stepped on him in Ethan’s Celestial Domain when I had the chance,’ Sebastian grumbled. ‘I could have made it look like an accident if I tried hard enough.’
‘I doubt it.’ Ethan’s Other Half chuckled. ‘I’m sure Edmond would not have allowed that to happen.’
Ethan agreed with his Other Half’s words, but he kept his focus on the discussion in the conference room.
“So, we don’t know where the Stone of Destiny is,” the Dwarf King finally spoke as he narrowed his gaze at Ethan. “Then, what do you know?”
Everyone’s gaze landed on the young man who had kept his silence for the past few minutes.
“Currently, there is a Pseudo-Leader among the Fomorians who had ordered a few of them to come to the Shire Continent to look for the Stone of Destiny,” Ethan answered. “His name is Arawn.”
“Impossible!” The Queen of the Elves stood up from her seat and looked at Ethan in shock. “He’s still alive?!”
Even the Fairy Queen, who usually had a cheery expression, turned pale after hearing the name of the Pseudo-Leader of the Fomorians.“He is very much alive.” Ethan nodded. “Also, while this is not confirmed, according to the memory I received from one of his subordinates, a little more than a year from now, they will come to the Shire Continent en masse if the mission of finding the Stone of Destiny fails.
“I’m afraid that there would not only be four Fomorians making landfall when the time comes. Hundreds, maybe even thousands, will come. Of course, this is only a part of the memory that I have seen from one of his subordinates. Take this information with a grain of salt.
“But, let me just say one thing. Only four Fomorians came this time, and yet, they were extremely troublesome. If not for the fact that they were dealt with before they could truly hatch their plans in the Shire Continent, these lands might not be as peaceful as they are now.”
Hearing Ethan’s words, the Kings and Queens asked him a few more questions, which he answered to the best of his ability.
Some asked if he knew where they were hiding, and the young man said yes. Read Web Novels Online Free – NovelFire Novel Fire – novelfire.net
But their Domain was in Midgard, so there was nothing the current leaders could really do about it.
The only thing they could do was wait for the Fomorians to come to their home turf. As to whether their home court advantage would play to their strength or not, they would know once their enemies came knocking at their doors.
