Bizarre Realm-Chapter 371 - 26: Calamity Messenger

A cluster of ghostly blue flames flicker.

Shawn’s tall and slender figure stands silently in the center of the ritual array, countless pieces of knowledge transform into silver runes encircling his palm, surrounded by a deep darkness, as if plunged into a silent and traceless black hole. In the deepest part of that darkness, pairs of indistinct eyes quietly watch him. As Shawn’s power grows, the rejection force of the plane law he feels becomes ever stronger; the laws of the Realm of Reality are somewhat unable to accommodate his existence.

Shawn ignores the countless pairs of eyes emerging in the surrounding darkness, those are observers of the Spirit Realm, voyeurs; in the past, when he manipulated the power of the Spirit Realm, it was like a small pebble falling into a lake, but now he is a giant stone crashing into it. Unless he can conceal his traces, he is destined to attract the attention of these Spirit Realm voyeurs, who are usually harmless.

He doesn’t know how much time has passed.

The ritual Shawn arranged finally receives a response, and a calm female voice sounds beside his ear, "I understand."

"Go ahead without reservations."

Since Aemon tore open the rift to other Crystal Wall System Cosmos, communicating with Lady Hecate has become increasingly difficult for Shawn. Almost every time he sends a message through a sacrificial ritual, Lady Hecate would respond after, today too he’s waited nearly half an hour.

Shawn doesn’t know what the teacher is doing, but he knows the teacher is often so busy that she doesn’t have time to respond to sacrificial rituals.

"Is the teacher preparing for a divine investiture ceremony?"

What Aemon did not only shattered the peace of the Realm of Reality but also dissolved the hypocritical peace among the demigods; to once again gather the Authority of Death Law, some of the lofty demigods must become dust of history.

Back then, many destinies shared in death, now the scattered authority of death needs to be reformed into singularity.

Shawn’s figure slowly turns around, and he gently brushes his hand, wiping away the traces of the ritual on the ground completely.

Facing demigod-level beings, he stands little chance, but since the teacher lets him proceed, it means that the demigod-level enemies will be personally handled by Lady Hecate. Shawn now only needs to consider facing the destinies in the Dagon Region, and he’s always been curious about the real strength of those destiny legends relying on lineage inheritance.

Hopefully, they won’t disappoint him!

The Horn Clan is renowned for specializing in spells; in every generation of their clan emerges a destiny legend-level warlock. Logically, this should be improbable; after all, descendants vary, not every generation can prove destiny, but they seem to have a uniquely distinctive inheritance method that allows the lineage’s descendants to inherit the laws of the previous generation of destiny legend, meaning the same ’Proof of Destiny’ gets passed on from generation to generation.

There must be a price to pay for this; otherwise, the lineage inheritance of the Warlock Clan wouldn’t be so difficult.

Ring City.

Accompanied by the opening of a Secret Technique Gate, the figure of Akidina-Duwa appears; she seems to have recovered significantly, lowers her head slightly, and says: "Master Shawn."

As a High Tier adventurer of Abyss City, her power far exceeds that of the people in the Realm of Reality, almost equivalent to the combat prowess of Death Pilgrims. If using the analogy of the Ferren Plane, Akidina-Duwa is an adventurer in the Bottomless Abyss, whereas the transidents of the Realm of Reality are akin to those of the Prime Material Plane during peaceful times. Even for her to fall silently into a trap indicates few in the entire Ring City are still clear and sane.

Shawn is currently unsure where the source of the contamination is, but the Ring City surely arranged for a dark sacrificial ritual.

Shawn glanced at her indifferently and said: "Awake?"

Akidina-Duwa nodded slightly, looking self-reproachful, "I let Master Shawn down."

Shawn calmly shook his head, "This isn’t something you have to involve yourself in; accidentally falling into a trap isn’t surprising."

The Wandering Path does not excel in willpower; if a High Tier transcendent of the Martial Monk Path came, it would be hard for them to fall into a trap. Warriors excel in constitution and resilience, Wanderers in reflex evasion, each career path has different innate talents.

He calmly asked, "How are the preparations for your identity?"

Akidina-Duwa respectfully replied, "Master. It has been arranged."

"However,"

"According to the traditions of the Dagon Region, first, one must pass the bloodline certification ritual to be recognized by the Guardian Clan."

Bloodline.

In the eyes of High Tier casters, changing bloodline isn’t difficult; if you wish, even Giant Dragons, Elves, and other monstrous bloodlines can be changed. Some forbidden evil objects are the result of mad mages hybridizing various creature bloodlines.

Shawn has a simpler way to pass the bloodline certification ritual, that’s the 9th circle of Assimilation Technique, directly absorbing and assimilating the target fully.

This evil spiritual spell is akin to ’cannibalism’.

Shawn turned to gaze at the distant Black Tower, and blandly said, "Then let’s prepare to act."

"Summon the Calamity Messenger Team."

"Also have Abyss City’s Divine Terra Church dispatch a warband; someone will arrange for them to secretly infiltrate the Realm of Reality."

The Divine Terra Church has been preaching in Abyss City for so long, it’s time to showcase them; the Realm of Reality is the most suitable place for the development of the Divine Terra Church, after all, Abyss City has a limited population, and the easily developed followers are almost all developed.
