last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
After Hamal, Antares was Lars' next stop. At first, he was reluctant to come back here as he got the same predicament as he visited Lyme Belle Theatre. However, Lars figured he had to put it aside since there was a chance that Len could be there. That, and he wanted to see some old friends as well.

Lars went to Shaula Mall first. It had been a while since Lars was there and he almost forgot the aquarium floor didn't actually contain boiling blood and terrifying monsters. With astral compass device from Vayu, Lars could locate any access point to enter the Astral Realm and out of all the options, Lars chose the restroom where he was last kidnapped in.

There was a slight disappointment in Lars' part that Vayu couldn't come with him to Antares. Since the apparently - rebellious clan leader of Heavensbloom wasn't around, Vayu had to oversee Hamal for a while. Since Lars planned to go to Antares anyway, he had volunteered the check things out in Vayu's place.

    Lars had visited the eastern half of La Shania Mirepa by two weeks and a half mark. He then set his sight on the center regions; Al Tarf, Castor - Pollux and Regulus. His first choice landed on Al Tarf where he was warmly welcomed by its Scion, Edwin.Edwin's penthouse was certainly a breath of fresh air for Lars. Everything was so modern and predominantly white that Lars felt a bit self - conscious on sitting anywhere. The penthouse was overlooking Al Tarf's downtown and Lars thought the skyline was comparable with Rukbat.What Lars liked the most, however, when it was a sunny such as that day. He could sunbathe on the terrace, soaking all the warmth of summer to dry himself off after a swim. Not that it would make him any tanner anymore, but Lars just liked the way the sun kissed all over his body."Hey." Edwin appeared with colorful drinks on each hands and gave one to Lars."Thanks." Lars smiled and sipped on his mango punch.Unlike Lars, Edwin was fully clothed, refusing

    On his way to Regulus, Lars noticed a brewing storm threatened his arrival. The skies were dark and the wind was ruthless. Lars felt drizzle coming and cursed under his breath for not seeing anywhere to stop. He just had his laundry done the previous day and he didn't want them to get soaked in this trip.'Lars... can you hear me...?'A voice called out and Lars whipped his head around searching its source. The drizzle quickly transformed into torrential rain and Lars reasoned he was hearing things like the way one would hear imaginary voices in the rain.'Lars... don't... there...!'The voice got louder, and it came from Lars' back. Without any options, he stopped and begrudgingly rummaged his backpack. It was the magical communication talisman, lighting up in purple glow and the voices were apparently from Rachelia.'Lars, you absolute dugong. What are you doing in Regulus?'"R - Rachel? I... wait, are you tracking me?"'Of course I'm tracking you. I ask again, what are

    Lars looked out to the window and hugged his body tighter. His wounds had fully regenerated and Lars was happy he didn't feel the pain any longer now that his healing regeneration accelerated. However, Lars lamented it didn't apply to his clothes whatsoever.His near - naked body was unbothered by the cold, but it still made Lars uncomfortable to be in such state at the abandoned church he was hiding. He just knew his crash on the Regulus mall would instantly made him viral on the internet and he couldn't afford be seen anywhere anymore.An approaching presence brought a smile to Lars' face. He was hoping someone would come get him and this person might as well be her. He got down to the creaky stairs and welcomed a certain pouting little lady who strutted so fast towards him."Rachel! I - "Lars was slapped on the back of his head. It was surprisingly hurt for him."Ow! What was that for?""And still having the audacity to ask. Unbelievable."Lars rubbed the back of his

    "As of today, there are no further reports regarding this unidentified young man who crashed in Central Plaza Mall of Regulus in La Shania Mirepa. Many sources claimed it was an elaborate hoax to give more sensation to several freak disasters happening in La Shania Mirepa. Conspiracy theorists are instantly flooding the social media to give their opinions and names about this phenomenon, calling the young man as a fallen angel, an escaped government's experiment subject, or - ""Could you turn that off please?" Lars asked.The driver switched off the radio only after Rachelia nodded. Lars leaned back and closed his eyes, not wanting to think of his latest major screw-up. When Lars opened his eyes, Dean was still staring on the phone, looking at the fabricated photo of Priscilla being hospitalized."I knew she's been working hard since she's relocated to Regulus but I didn't think this would happen to her. This is so sudden.""Does Priscilla talks a lot about her work to you?"

    "What have you done?"Priscilla wailed over her lover's death. The rain worsened into a storm, then to a cyclone. Lars looked around to find the perpetrator that caused this but didn't sense anyone other than what he already knew."No, Dean! Stay with me! Dean!"Lars wanted to get to Priscilla to calm her, but his hand was pulled by Rachelia. They returned inside the force field avoiding the lightning strikes and blown off trees. The chaotic weather seemed to completely reflected Priscilla's own shock and grief, and though Lars took pity of her loss, he realized how dangerous the cyclone had become.At that point tornado was formed where Priscilla stood. She was no longer visible amidst the flying debris and dusts, but her raging presence of green hellfire was apparent. The tornado expanded and claimed the mansion area. The force field on the mansion repeatedly struck by stray objects, adding more cracks and letting some violent wind in."Rachel, what the hell? Did you do tha

    It was a lovely afternoon in Algedi when the Lyme Belle Theatre was bombed. The carpeting bombs hit the building straight off and the forests around it, demolishing everything with brutal explosions. The crumbling sound, the quake, everything that happened, were all felt by Mell.A warning call was issued from Wilhelmina moments earlier, telling that a massive storm was attacking Spica. She implored the other Scions to prepare themselves as the Sovereigns had begun their attack. Mell almost missed hearing this warning but thankfully Vorpaltinger woke him up to listen to his beeping talisman.As it turned out, an attack did come and Mell had successfully evacuated the mythfolks to the underground hall just in time. His Balor mace was erected, and amber light spread out to the earth below and above him, strengthening the entire structure of New Alnath to withstood the carpet bombing."Fucking Sovereigns!" Mell grunted."Lord Melliandros, what should we do? We can't stay here," Og

    An alien aircraft flew across Hamal region of La Shania Mirepa. It was high up in the air, soaring among the clouds and overlooking the Heavensbloom National Park. It was about to unleash destructive carpet bombing to nature's own green carpet down below, but a certain white beast prevented it so.Vayu had taken the form of a large winged fox with his tail lusciously bushy with blazing rainbow flames. He shot out fireballs from his mouth and the army of fairies behind him followed suit with their elemental magic blasts. The battle was like a fireworks show in broad daylight."If you want to go all out then so can we!"In his bestial transformations, Vayu's voice turned into a deep, reverberating echo of layers and layers of voices speaking in tandem. He always liked to use it to intimidate his enemies but this particular aircraft was a stubborn one.The aircraft kept sending out bombs as it dodged the blasting attacks from Vayu and the Heavensbloom Clan. Although Vayu had assig

    The Hall of Convergence was repeatedly shaken by the ensuing battle and storm that took place miles above it. Tirana, Alicia and Saracenia, along with the rest of maids and butlers of Calendula Residence were evacuated here. They could only look around for any cracks or falling dusts from the ceiling that could indicate any chance of them being buried alive soon."This is awful, oh my gosh," Alicia said. She kept ducking for every quake happening."It'll be alright, Mrs. Sykes," Tirana said. "Let's just hope for the best for everyone."Tirana put on a brave face saying this but deep down, she was terrified. She held her Mist Lotus spear tighter than she should. Her toes clutched on the soles of her combat boots, desperate to clung for balance. Myriad of potion glass bottles in her leather sling bag clanked as Tirana rocked by the earth."Yes, please don't worry," Saracenia said. "Out of 326 recorded earthquakes, only 15 of them that cause major damage that warrants renovation."

    "Did we just... lost?"Mell's exasperated question snapped Lars back to the reality. He watched as the Grand Serpent's towering scales spread out in the distance, amidst the smokes of ruin. From them, silver colored monstrosities excused themselves into the world, causing destruction in their wake."No. We've won. We pushed him back, didn't we?" Lars said, desperately trying to sound cheerful."But at what cost?" Rachelia said in a tired whisper. Wilhelmina gave her a side hug."Let's just get out of here first, those things are coming," Vayu said.Everyone agreed to the suggestion and the Scions walked through the ruined Regulus that had been deformedly transformed into chaotic nature. There were trees grown in the middle of the street, with reptilian scale textures on their trunks and leaves. Gravity also arbitrarily nullified in some parts, leaving some debris and ashes floating."Is this all because of silverstream?" Lars asked as he touched a speck of floating dust.

    The Grand Serpent spoke, and his voice was ethereally terrifying as Lars imagined him to have. His black scales resonated with silver glow that ran from his body to his head. The silverstream gathered around the Grand Serpent made Lars wary of any incoming attack. Lars thought perhaps that was when the Grand Serpent took the fight seriously.'You fought... well...'The Grand Serpent did not open his mouth, but the voice was definitely booming from him. Lars wasn't sure what to answer, so he let his Celestial Calibur did it for him. The sword streamed out a river of burning light. The slashing wave Lars emitted from it was blocked by the barrier again.This time, the barrier looked more defined and more silver. Rachelia's roses and Vayu's flames also didn't make a single dent on it. The Grand Serpent made a repeated sound of chaotic cacophony, which Lars could only interpret as a deriding laugh.Then, in the distance, they came. The Chimeras from all over La Shania Mirepa rushed

    That morning, a blinding white star rose from the ruins of Regulus. The star burned so bright it took the full attention of a certain cosmically colossal creature. The star shone and dispersed the wild silver ashes in the skies. All eyes were on the star's ascension, watching it unfolded into bursting wings of light.Lars has transformed into a white armored angel with six divine wings hovering behind his back, connected by a golden halo. The armor was his own solidified Scion Force, sparkling in majestic grandeur of white and gold. A sword patterned crown rested on Lars' head, having the same royal pattern as his brilliantly burning Celestial Calibur.The Grand Serpent hissed, the loudest Lars ever heard so far. The storm of buildings turned ghastlier as some of them were caught on silver flames. Foul smell still permeated across the battlefield and Lars willed himself to not catch a whiff. By quick observation, he realized some parts of the Regulus has rainforests, mountains and

    The white crystal resonated as if welcoming Lars and Len. The entire place was alight by swirling lights, and the air felt like they were in meadows. Though it was silent, the serenity and ambience of the place only reinforced the crystals' ethereal atmosphere. For a second, Lars thought he found a piece of heaven buried deep within the earth.Len let go as Lars made his steps forward. Lars walked to the majestic divine crystal before him and fell to his knees soon after. However, there was a relieved, happy smile on his face. He was finally to meet his savior and guardian deity in person."Hello, Alt'ma."'My Scion.'It was the same voice as Lars remembered, echoing and ethereal."I don't know if you've been watching or not, but... we are in very deep trouble."'So I've seen. Moreover, your body is defiled and I am slowly losing you.'"Yeah, it's because of those damn bombs." Lars then gasped. "O - oh, sorry for cursing in front of you."'Worry not, my Scion. It seems

    In the darkness, Lars was trapped in a vicious cycle of fainting and waking up to a numbing pain. He groaned every time, making sure to himself that he was alive despite the severe agony. He also felt repeated sensation of being dragged, carried, or held. Each weren't in the nicest or careful ways as the grip always too tight and the stones always scraped too rough.What truly woke Lars up was the sight of a light. It wasn't his, but someone else's. It was purple and menacing under the dark, but Lars figured any light was a friend to face any darkness. He tried to raise his neck and felt like dying just for it. He wondered why being a Scion could still feel this much hurt.Deliriously, Lars called out to the tailed devil in the shadows. "Len...?"Len didn't turn nor answer. His gaze was fixated at an amulet where the purple glow came from. Lars was stunned for a while, thinking how that amulet somehow find its way home to its creator. He remembered leaving it on his bag at Regulu

    The Grand Serpent watched the world laid before him in such a curious gaze. Lars was shuddering from the sheer size of that creature. His trembling hand found his star necklace, and its chain rattled alongside his tremors. He kept taking quick, deep breaths but they weren't as helpful as he hoped.Lars braved himself to look away, but the dread caught him by the throat to the point it was physically hurt to move his neck. He watched as the others were in shambles like he did. Mell was backing away as he looked up, stumbling to a few rubbles. Rachelia supported herself by her umbrella and Wilhelmina was on the ground next to her, leaning helplessly to the ruins of Regulus. As for who held Lars' hand, it turned out to be Vayu. Though Vayu was trembling, he didn't let his gaze broke away from the Grand Serpent."V - Vay..."Vayu's spiteful gaze was a thinly veiled look of fear, but at the very least Lars noticed a form of resistance from him. He realized for Vayu, it was probably li

    "Len! Len, please snap out of it!" Lars exclaimed.Magnus laughed in the most obnoxious way possible to Lars' ears. "Don't even bother. He already knows. He just chooses to be here. After all, he is reborn as a new god and destined to bring us the promised world."Lars looked at Magnus and then to Len. He didn't want to believe the word of a man who had been lying to them for years, but those unflinching silver eyes deterred Lars quite a bit. Lars wanted to jump down but the synchronized aims from the Sovereigns' guns everywhere stopped him."Len, don't listen to anything he says! He's a monster! He lied to us the whole time.""Lars, please," Vayu said behind him. "If we don't do something, we're gonna be dead here."Lars wanted to scream and break things out of frustration, but he knew Vayu was right. Without turning, Lars nodded and Vayu took the cue. The reflecting threads spread into millions and slicing the Sovereigns in front of Vayu. Their fallen, mutilated bodies made

    When Edwin didn't scream, everything was quiet. Too quiet. Lars was sitting in the other room with Tirana and Vorpaltinger, not wanting to see Rachelia's 'infamous' interrogation method. He sat on the couch, lost in deep thoughts of processing what he feels about the recent reveal about his friends.Vorpaltinger sat next to Lars and leaned back, resting on her wings. Lars gave her a fleeting smile before he spaced out again, and this time Vorpaltinger didn't let him."It might seem cruel to you, but The Mandate is important for all of us mythfolks to keep. It protects us from the world too, so... I completely understand why they did it."Lars blinked. "You heard that?""I heard everything. Blame my rabbit ears for that."Vorpaltinger raised her foot on top of the table and stretched. "The Scions... can be quite intimidating to say the least, but they do care. They just happen to understand what's important and the scope of their duties so they won't exert themselves unnecessa

    Lars, Vayu, Mell, Rachelia, Tirana and Vorpaltinger had descended into the giant pit and exploring the corridors of Rasalhague Castle underground by then. Lars was starting to feel himself sweaty and greasy, and it wasn't because of the narrow, humid spaces they were traversing. He could feel himself deteriorating, both from inside and outside.Everywhere Lars looked, there was always something made of slitherite. The walls, ceiling panels, floor tiles, the doors, everything. It made Lars sick, literally and figuratively, and the feeling was shared with the rest of his Scion friends."God fucking damn it, I fucking hate this place," Mell breathed out, sweating."Yes, Mell. We've heard you the first fifteen times," Rachelia said.Vayu didn't say anything. Lars could see that friend of his was slightly falling apart as Vayu held his own hand to stop his fingers untangled like a candy wrapper. Lars reached out and held Vayu closer to him by his shoulder. Vayu just smiled in respon
