The water of the lake exploded upwards as massive waves were lifted hundreds of feet into the skies. The lights in the eye of Lamia shined as the barrier covering the lake began to dim. She made a gesture with her hands and her Champion began attacking the spikes inside the numerous eyes on her hair. He began to steadily pull them out; it could be noticed that the barrier over the lake was linked to the Control Hub, and as the Serpent consumed it, the barrier over Lamia was weakening. This child…-

Rowan had underestimated his abilities to a laughable degree, as his greatest insufficiency was information, although he acknowledged that his bloodline was powerful, he did not really understand by how much. Rowan had never actually understood the operation of his bloodline or where he really stood in the power dynamics of the universe, but as a newly born Empyrean who was growing at an astonishing rate, he would soon begin uncovering all the truths of his existence. Also, with a series of unique…

The General gritted his teeth and a bloody light bloomed around him, which coalesced into a vortex in his chest that resembled a bleeding open wound, and from this vortex, two twenty foot spearheads began to appear. The General cried out and made a throwing gesture with his hand, and the two spears vanished in a flash of red light, and pinned the two Ouroboros Serpent to the roof by their heads, silencing their roars. Rowan had to admit that his fighting experience was still too low and just because…

"Those fiends can eat Magitite?" The General screamed. Rowan could understand his Surprise, Magitite was notorious for being very toxic. Special sealing spells and Runes are used on every inch of it, for a lump of Magitite the size of a fist can poison the surrounding landscape for miles. This was a very controlled substance, that could only be purchased by an official Alchemist at the Central Alchemy Headquarters at the Capital. The only reason he was able to purchase one was because of his mother.…

The general pointed at the black gate and said, "My suspicion arose when I first saw this gate. It was something that cannot be created by us, for it is made of Mithril—God's poison." "Every god on the planet laid down a rule that was penned with their golden blood. It states that this metal was barred from this world. If such a large piece of it was brought down here only to be used as a gate, you could imagine my astonishment. This place has been where my efforts have been mostly concentrated these…

The doors took a little over three minutes for them to be devoured entirely, and while devouring the doors, Rowan took the time to scrutinize the embodiments he saw on them. On the doors was a familiar image; in fact, it was one of the foremost things he saw when he first came to this world. It was a peculiar entity that had burned itself into his mind. It was the mermaid with three pairs of arms. The image on these palatial doors was covered with dust, and by ordering the Ouroboros Serpent to blow…

"I am a Scion of Tiberius, the God of War and my fate is of endless battle, my only worth to the Ancestor is on the battlefield, the clash of my blades, a melody to him, and my bloodshed in war is my oblation." The more he spoke, the General became more solemn, as if he were reciting a rite. Rowan was silent, for the first time the emotions of the General matched his words, but the melancholy he was sensing from him got washed away, and was replaced by expectations and greed. They arrived at a…

"You spoke of a deal, Augustus. I will hear it." Rowan said, deciding to push directly to the point, he would never believe a single word spoken by this man, unless it was given under the administration of Rowan. He had too much ignorance about what was happening, and the General could easily deceive him, there was no reason why he would make Rowan more powerful by showing him the whole picture. The General brought out a gray stone with a flick of his wrist, a silver light shimmered around a bracelet…

"Then it's a good thing that the Sigil you seek lies along our path, I have no intentions of controlling you, and if you gain your freedom and I gain the other benefits hidden in this place, we both win!" "I would follow your lead for now, Augustus, show me what I need to see." "Great, you would not regret this decision." The General laughed and began walking across the room. No, I would definitely regret my decision if I choose to believe you. Rowan thought. He did not forget someone ordered the…

? The two Ouroboros serpents flew leisurely around Augustus, their cold eyes saw the General as nothing but food. Rowan's eyes grew back and flashed with lightning, with his Energy Sight he could see that the General's Energy Signature burned like a furnace, he was the brightest being inside the Nexus. Surprisingly, he noticed that Lamia's Energy Signature was far less bright, but it had more boundless complexities within, and Rowan guessed it must be because of the current state of the General.…
