"Well, the spear reacts to strong bloodlines and you have seven mythical bloodlines in you. Out of which, two are active while the rest remain dormant. So I reckoned that there might have been some sort of reaction. Thankfully, it wasn't a strong reaction, and you were just sparked. The spear might have felt your authority and that of your system as well and let it go," Mag'ladroth explained.
Ray nodded and then turned to look at Aurora. She was happily munching on her popcorn. Seeing this, Ray sighed and spoke, "Well, I wanna unlock some more powers but you seem to be staying still. It seems as if the system isn't helping me anymore,"
"Heyyy!!!" Hearing Ray, she snarled. Throwing her popcorn away, she jumped to her feet and walked to him. Coming close to him, she looked right into his eyes and spoke, "Have you ever asked? Also, affinities are not so easy to come by, and given your current strength, having more affinities would only cause you hindrance in your path to strength. So master your current powers to the extent that you unlock their domain fully. Then, we will see what to do with affinities," Saying, she turned around with a harrumph. Snorted in anger and left.
Ray looked at her, all bewildered by her reaction. He turned to Mag'ladroth and FengFeng, only to find them nowhere around.
"Freaks," He muttered in anger. He was the host but for every piece of help, he had to ask them, even beg them.
Ray was sick of their behavior but what could he do? Also, deep down, Ray knew that whenever necessary, they would provide help and give him tips from time to time. They were just looking out for him because if they helped him every time he asked for help, he would just be overly reliant on them and would fail to solve the problems himself.
Still, it didn't stop him from being dissatisfied with their behavior. Ray looked down at his feet and sighed. Concentrating out of his consciousness, he opened his eyes to the real world. Looking around, he saw everyone fighting the trolls as blood fell upon the ground.
He looked for a bit longer and saw a white wolf standing on its toes as it slashed at one troll after another. It bit other trolls and killed any enemy that came in sight. It looked like a prime example of a starving wolf on a rampage.
Ray recognized it to be Hailey who at the moment seemed to be lost in blood lust. Her eyes were red as she just filled her mouth. Ray turned around and looked for Sirius.
Far ahead, he found a huge shadow rising into the air. The shadow was of a wolf's claw as it slashed at the trolls.
Concentrating on the origin of the shadow, Ray saw Sirius standing on the ground. The shadow extended out of Sirius and acted as an extension of its body.
Along with the shadowy claw, Sirius held the spear in his other hand. The spear gave off dark pulses as Sirius stabbed his enemies. With just one stab, a troll would fall and some whitish energy would be absorbed by the spear.
"Interesting," Ray muttered. Scratching his chin, he decided to jump in the show as well. Picking up the Void Sword, his eyes lit up as bolts of lightning surged around him. Electrical arcs covered his sword as he lifted the sword high in the air.
He looked at the trolls ahead and grinned. His feet went a blazer a bright flamed burned beneath them.
"Let's unlock the full potential of these two elements," He thought with a smile. Kicking the ground, he jumped in the air. Leaving behind a fiery trail, he swung his sword as an arc of lightning fell on the trolls ahead.
Bolts of lightning revolved around him as he fell into the sea of trolls ahead.
"Crackle…Booom," Lighting burst out in the air as a huge pillar of lightning illuminated the whole battlefield.
The trolls around Ray were vaporized as Ray had mixed the lightning element with the fire.
"Booommm!!" The ground was scorched black as the fire spread out in a circle. Ray was standing there in the middle with a smile on his face. Tongues of flame burned around his body, and his armor was lit up with runic patterns as he looked like a legendary warrior that was here for damnation.
Ray looked up, seeing the horde of trolls in front of him. He raised his sword. Like a trusty companion, the sword whizzed in the air. It seemed that even the sword was loving the carnage.
A bright purple light glowed in the sword as Ray planted his feet on the ground. His body produced immense pressure as the ground below him cracked, and two wings popped out of his back.
Lightning surged as he flapped the wings and flew up in the air. Shimmering scales covered his skin as the sword enlarged even more. More Void Shards appeared in the air as they revolved around him.
Floating in the air, he looked no less menacing than Sirius. His eyes were filled with lightning as bolts of lighting crackled around his body. A fire blew around his feet. The sword floated around besides him as the Void Shards seemed to be in sync with him.
A strange scene appeared. The Void Shards started to revolve faster as spatial cracks were developed around them. From the spatial cracks, lightning was summoned.
Thick, purplish bolts of lightning crackled around the Void Shards as they then concentrated around the Void Sword. Revolving around the sword, they changed the sword.
Ray placed his hand on the sword's hilt. A connection was formed. He could feel it like an extension of his body.
His eyes opened wide as he saw a vast universe flowing around him. It was the Void Element responding to his call through the Void Shards.
Connected to one of the most primitive and primal elements of all time, Ray felt different. He felt like an existence above all as if everyone else was below him.
His perspective changed. He felt like soaring in the air and looking down at everyone. When he felt like reaching the top, he saw another existence over there. It wasn't just one but hundreds of existences and a never-ending fog.
At the far end, he saw a huge castle rising into the sky. Above the castle was an endless space from which, he could see a pair of eyes looking at him. The eyes were like two deep black holes that could suck in everything.
Looking into those eyes, Ray felt lost. He felt himself being sucked into them. He just stood there, staring into those eyes as his soul got sucked into them.
"Ray!!!" Three distinct voices echo in his head as they pulled him out of his reverie.
"Close your eyes right now and look down," Mag'ladroth roared in his consciousness.
"Uhmm... Okay," Ray nodded absentmindedly.
Doing so, three phantoms appeared behind him. They weren't just phantoms but full individuals. One was of a huge Void Dragon as it stared into the eyes itself.
Mag'ladroth was a dragon and his pride was unparalleled. He looked back into those eyes with pride and arrogance. Also, his pride wasn't unaccounted for. He was known throughout the universe for being the progenitor of the Void Element.
After that, another individual phantom rose to the air. Tongues of flames appeared in the sky as they soared high above the castle.
"Skreeee," A phoenix's roar sounded. It had been so after millions of years. Everyone present on the plane looked up as they saw the legendary Phoenix of time.
They were all bewildered. First, they saw the prideful and arrogant dragon of Void appear after thousands of year and then there was the Phoenix of Time.
"Has he returned?" A strange voice echoed through the place as the castle in the air vibrated. The fog moved as Ray saw an endless universe hidden in it.
"What is this place?" Ray asked Aurora.
"Don't worry. I will tell you everything," Aurora said and then raised her head.
"I guess it's time to finally reveal myself. Ray, your time has come to achieve strength and finally learn more about your origin. It's time to start your conquest," She thought and then stepped forward.
As she did, an ancient armor covered her from top to bottom. Bathed in a sacred fire, her hair fell to her waist as her beautiful face radiated off with immense charm. Her graceful steps echoed in the silence as she raised her hand and a dark staff appeared.
The staff had various runes laid upon it. The staff kept on changing shapes as it turned from one weapon to another continuously. It stopped and turned into a sword that peacefully rested in her hand.
She held the sword and looked at the universe up ahead.
"The Primordial Ancestor's Guardian has awoken," She said softly.
Just as she spoke. Chaos reigned. The fog trembled as beams shot out of the castle. More and more eyes opened up in the cosmos above the castle as everyone and everything was rattled to their core.
If at first, they were all shocked by the appearance of two mythical beasts and progenitors of legendary elements.
The guardian of primordial ancestor only meant two things.
Either that the primordial ancestor has come back from death or that a successor was chosen and that the successor had gained an insight on a legendary element to let him overview the plane of ancestors.
