Pov Heston (King of the Dark Elves):
I was holding a cubic crystal, a storage item that contains a lot of information about something, there are reports, evidence, plausible assumptions, and various other things.
"They came back..." (I)
"We were already suspecting this before, but confirming what we were thinking only makes the situation worse." (I)
"You just didn't want to accept that you didn't manage to kill everyone that day." (Hest)
I close my eyes and remember the battle of that day, it was the first time I saw more than one Titan of Nature together in the same place.
I still remember the smell of burning flesh, the hot Blood running through my body, and the screams of pain across the battlefield.
"I was naive, I believed I was insurmountable when in fact I was just reckless." (I)
"I was tricked and because of that everyone who died was used as a sacrifice for them to break a part of the Seal." (I)
"Now they're back and they have a plan to break the second seal." (Hest)
"What should I do? Unlike then, I'm the King of the Dark Elves now." (I)
"Unlike back then, you know you shouldn't act alone." (Hest)
I look at the World Tree Spirit, she smiles at me, even after thousands of years her smile is always the same.
"They may be back, but they are acting differently, back then they were more brutal and fearless, they even used each other as sacrifices to fulfill their goals." (I)
"This time they hide in the shadows and act indirectly, their members also seem to be weak, but we don't know their numbers." (I)
"There won't be many or they wouldn't need to spread the Flux Coral weapons, they could do it themselves and much faster." (Hest)
"I will send the new Old Elves to help the Gray Elves, they can use the strong connection with nature to reverse some of the damage happening in different parts of the continent." (I)
"You know what must be done." (Hest)
"Yes, we will need help, the Dragons must also coordinate with us." (I)
"Looks like I'm going to have to ask them one more favor." (I)
Pov Klaus (Moon Butcher):
"Hahahaha...all...all of this is...useless"
"It seems that pain is not the way..." (I)
I was in a magically hidden room with one of the vendors who have been distributing Flux Coral weapons across the continent.
He was bleeding from head to toe, I cut his tendons, crushed his muscles, broke his bones, used some non-deadly poisons, and spent a few days with him, but he didn't say anything.
"You should have agreed while you could." (I)
I build a ritual circle and use a magic crystal containing the moon element, then I activated the magic circle after less than 1 hour.
"I hope he can handle it without freaking out." (I)
I give him powerful aphrodisiacs rehearsing the room leaving him alone with two of my subordinates watching.
"Now that we have some time, I'm going to find out more about my daughter." (I)
"Haven't even met her yet, but he has a smile like that just thinking about her." (Naraka)
As I was getting ready to leave, the next day I received the final report on the prisoner.
It looks like he only lasted a short time with the right method of torture.
I read the report before passing the news to the Gray Elf King.
I was in the garden of my mansion training my Martial Arts, this is the best option to adapt to my new body.
At this moment I have every muscle in my body making maximum effort as I try to do the various forms of my Martial Art.
This is extremely difficult, it needs someone with great concentration and focus, it also needs continuous repetition to remember each movement not with the brain but with the body itself.
After the training I went to meet Vanessa at the Temple, she was beaming when she told me about the changes, but she hadn't gone to look around yet.
As soon as I find it I feel the difference, I can feel the various Blessings within me react the moment I step into time.
Besides the statues of the Gods, I don't see anything different here, that means that only the statues are the change, I can also feel a little of my presence in the statues.
I sit and pray to these Gods, I do this more to celebrate the completion of the Temple than for religious reasons.
<[ Several Gods have their attention turned towards you ]>
"(I feel the Blessings inside me go berserk...)" (I)
I feel the power of the Blessings within my body bubbling out while I feel a similar power of the Blessings coming out of most of the statues of the Gods, so the power of my blessings connects with the power of the corresponding statues.
At that moment I feel like I have formed a connection with the statues and the Holy Power within me flows to the statues and then flows to me again, this repeated countless times, each time faster than the last until I couldn't count anymore.
I feel like each time my Holy Power comes back a little different than before and these differences are forcing an evolution or transformation in my Holy Power.
I had lost track of time when the connection broke and I noticed some of my Aura being emitted from the Temple itself, but with no time to worry about those things now, I sit down and start meditating.
When I look inside myself with meditation, I notice that my Aura and Holy Power have changed a bit.
I feel something Holy in my Aura now, moreover, my Holy Power has an intensity that resembles that of my Aura, as if several things are mixed together, but while my Aura is like that by the synthesis of many different types of Auras into one, my Holy Power seems to have mixed some of my various Blessings together to become much stronger.
I also noticed that the amount of my Holy power increased by 6 or 7 times, I hadn't even gained complete control of my new body and countless abilities, and now I feel that another significant change has taken place.
When I open my eyes at the end of my meditation, I realize that Vanessa, Lilian, Karina, Irina, Irius, Barok, Athena, and their friends, all were kneeling facing me, behind me, there was also a crowd of all races equally kneeling.
<[ His Holy Power was strengthened from communion with countless Blessings from Different Gods ]>
<[ You have earned the title [ He who communes with the Gods ] ]>
