Chapter 1011 Against The Tides Of History
"Bloody hell," Captain Jack Spawow stared at the city in front of him with a dumbfounded look on his face.
A city made entirely of gold shone faintly in the distance.
The Legendary City of El Dorado, which every Pirate wanted to explore, now stood in front of him in all of its glory.
Eiko and Fei Fei, who both had the treasure hunting ability, narrowed their eyes.
Both Baby Slimes were looking in the same direction. Over there was the temple that overlooked the entire city from a distance.
"Go!" Eiko ordered.
"Yes, Princess," Avery replied before flying towards the Golden Temple that had caught Eiko's and Fei Fei's attention.
Naturally, Captain Jack Spawow followed them without a second thought. He was there to witness history in the making, so he did his best to catch up to the Skeleton Pirate King, who purposefully flew at a speed that the Pirate Captain could follow.
Avery landed in front of the temple doors and opened it with both hands.
The moment the door opened, the two Baby Slimes jumped off Avery's shoulder and happily buried themselves in the pile of gold coins and treasures that were in front of them.
Eiko happily tossed a few coins in the air as if she was splashing some water.
Fei Fei did the same, and soon, the tinkling of coins reverberated in the surroundings.
After having their fill, the two Baby Slimes began to explore the temple.
The temple had three stories, and they were currently on the first floor.
Eiko and Fei Fei climbed the golden stairs leading to the second floor.
There, they found countless golden weapons that were of the Mythical and Legendary Rank.
Unlike the first floor, the two Baby Slimes didn't like the second floor.
Sure, the weapons were made up of gold, but since they weren't interested in weapons, they ignored them and headed towards the stairs.
Captain Jack Spawow, on the other hand, was mesmerized by the countless golden weapons that were neatly arranged in weapon racks.
If not for the fact that the two Baby Slimes were heading to the third floor, he would have stayed here and inspected all the weapons around him.
With a heavy heart, the Pirate Captain followed the two baby slimes, which made Avery chuckle.
On the third floor, a hill of treasures appeared in their vision.
However, Eiko, Fei Fei, and Captain Jack Spawow ignored all of this as their gazes were attracted to the top of the hill.
There, laying on top of a golden pedestal was a cylindrical cheese that radiated a dominating presence.
But this was not the only thing that caught Eiko's, Fei Fei's, and Captain Jack Spawow's attention.
Behind the Golden Pedestal that held the cheese stood a four-meter-tall Golden Anchor.
The Skeleton Pirate King, Avery, narrowed his eyes because he could tell that the Golden Anchor wasn't simple.
As a Peak Demigod, he was able to see the Power of Faith, as well as the Weave that bound everything together.
Right now, those two powers intertwined around the Golden Anchor, making the Skeleton Pirate King feel a suppression that surprised him.
Suddenly, all of them heard a voice speaking directly inside their heads.
—————————-
"In the boundless expanse of time,
Eternity's song, a sweet rhyme,
No beginning, no final chime,
Endless, infinite, a wondrous climb,
Eternal moments, forever sublime."
——————————-
The group looked around them but saw no one else inside the room. However, as if waiting for that moment, the voice once again spoke.
——————————
In the realm of Elysium, where legends take flight,
There stand Pillars of Eternity, resplendent and bright.
Amidst the shifting sands of time's turbulent sea,
These steadfast monuments stand, a symbol of Stability.
Carved from ancient gold, their foundations deep,
They guard against the chaos, the secrets they keep.
With strength and purpose, they rise to the sky,
A testament to endurance, as the ages pass by.
In defiance of oblivion, they remain unbowed,
Against the tides of history, they stand proud.
With a resolute spirit, they Anchor the land,
Ensuring that stability forever shall stand.
Through storms and battles, they weather the test,
An unyielding symbol of Stability, at their crest.
In the heart of Elysium, where destinies entwine,
The Pillars of Eternity, a sanctuary divine.
So let us take heed of these pillars so grand,
Embracing the values that make us all stand.
In a world of chaos, let Stability be our guide,
As we face the challenges of life, side by side.
——————————
Eiko looked at the Anchor with a resolute look on her face.
She slowly crawled up the mountain of treasures and climbed the pedestal where the One Cheese lay untouched for hundreds of years.
Without a second thought, the Baby Slime ate it. The cheese disappeared completely just like that.
Eiko felt a comfortable warmth spreading inside her body, which made her temporarily close her eyes due to how good it felt.
Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted from her body, making Avery and Captain Jack Sparrow unable to remain standing.
Both of them fell onto their knees as they looked at the Baby Slime whose body was glowing faintly in resplendent blue light.
Fei Fei, who was unaffected by Eiko's dominating aura, only looked at her best friend with a smile on her face.
A minute later, Eiko's body transformed into her Fairy Princess form.
She then pressed her hand over the Golden Anchor.
Suddenly, the loud tolling of bells reverberated in the surroundings, reaching all the isles of the Ford Federation.
The Pirates who were outside the Hidden Domain all fell to their knees as Eiko's aura surged like an unstoppable wave.
While this was happening, the Fairy Princess was holding onto the Golden Anchor with her eyes closed.
The Legacy of the Pirate King, who once owned the Golden Anchor, flowed inside her head, allowing her to understand how to wield the power of the Golden Anchor, which was one of the Pillars of Eternity, representing Stability.
Several minutes later, Eiko opened her eyes. She then flapped her wings and floated in the air.
Her hand then touched the shank of the Golden Anchor. After that, she raised the Anchor as if she was wielding a weapon in her hand.
(A/N: The shank is the handle of the Anchor. If you are still confused, ask Google kekeke.)
Captain Jack Spawow looked at the little girl, who seemed to be around five years old, holding the four-meter-long Golden Anchor, with awe.
Although he heard the voice inside his head, he still didn't fully understand what the Pillars of Eternity meant.
But he could tell that the moment Eiko summoned the Golden Anchor in the outside world, she would be able to command the laws of the world and bend them to her will.
