CHAPTER 119: THE BISHOP OF JINNS
In the gripping aftermath of the intense battle, the Venganza blade stood firmly lodged in the chest of the Priest, a gruesome testament to the brutal conflict that had unfolded. Infritus, however, found himself in a precarious situation, the impending threat weighing heavily on him. Despite the dire circumstances, a sinister smirk crept across his face, an unsettling contrast to the agony surrounding him. With deliberate calmness, he reached for the small satchel at his waist, retrieving a sphere pulsating with an ominous energy – the highly concentrated Delirium Insanctum."You believe this is an easy victory. Allow me to illuminate the depths of your ignorance," Infritus declared with a chilling certainty as he clutched the sphere in his hands. The atmosphere grew tense, and even Venganza, who had just delivered what seemed to be a fatal blow, hesitated, sensing the impending transformation. Celine, perceptive and swift, intervened to create a buffer between the two adversaries.The
CHAPTER 120: A TRUCE AMONGST THE UNTRUSTED
In the fiery glow of the cavern beneath the Mikaelium Pillar, Maleek's eyes bore into Venganza, searching for any sign of injury or distress. Venganza's breath came in ragged gasps, her once vibrant violet eyes dulled by exhaustion and pain. She shook her head weakly, her black purplish hair cascading around her like a halo. "It's not physical," she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper, "just... drained."Maleek's heart clenched with worry as he gently laid Venganza down on the rocky ground, careful to cushion her in his arms. Cradling her in his arms, Maleek brushed a strand of hair from Venganza's sweat-drenched forehead, his touch gentle yet charged with concern. "You pushed yourself too hard," he chided softly, his voice laced with affection and apprehension. "You should have told me." Maleek chimed compassionately.Venganza managed a weak smile, her lips curving upwards in a semblance of reassurance. "I had to," she insisted, her voice barely audible over the distant rumble
CHAPTER 121: ATTACK OF DIRE STRAITS
Above the Southern Modjaji Sea, a grand fleet of airships elegantly sailed through the boundless skies, their magnificent presence capturing the attention of all who beheld them. With their intricate designs and billowing sails, the airships moved with an almost ethereal grace as they advanced toward the Southern Void Pillar, a towering structure that seemed to defy gravity. Amidst this celestial journey, a holographic transmission sparked to life, originating from the recently liberated Mikaelium Pillar, a beacon of hope in the midst of the conflict."I bring tidings of liberation," announced the newly appointed guardian, Shangus, his voice echoing with unwavering resolve. The transmission's glow resonated with the triumphant essence of Mikaelium Pillar's newfound freedom, filling the hearts of all who heard it with a renewed sense of hope. "The Mikaelium Pillar is no longer ensnared by the clutches of our adversaries. Under my guardianship, I pledge unyielding devotion, gui
CHAPTER 122: CONSORTING WITH A DARK PRIMORDIAL
In the vaguely lit throne room of Seklas, nestled deep within the shadowy reaches of the Southern Nibirian Continent, the air was thick with the musk of scorched steel, charred incense, and the acrid remnants of failure. The torches along the obsidian walls flickered weakly, casting long, serpentine shadows that seemed to dance mockingly around the somber chamber. At the center of it all sat Seklas himself—Dark Lord of the Nibirian Wastes—perched atop his jagged throne carved from blackened meteorite. His crimson armor glinted dimly in the weak firelight, his gauntleted fingers clenched tightly around the arms of his seat as he stared into the great viewing basin embedded in the floor before him.Within the swirling mists of the basin, the aftermath of the Illuminarium's brazen assault played out like a grim prophecy. A colossal red orbuculum—one of the arcane engines that powered Seklas&
CHAPTER 123: AN UNUSUAL ALLIANCE
After three days of sailing west towards the Illuminarium continent, Maleek found himself in an unexpected moment of tranquility amid the vastness of the open sea. As the ship cut through the waves, he sought respite below deck, surrendering himself to the gentle sway of the vessel. It was in this nautical cocoon that Maleek succumbed to the embrace of slumber, blissfully unaware of the unfolding mystery above.Meanwhile, in the captain's quarters, Venganza, became an unlikely companion on this maritime odyssey. With the arrival of the early morning sun, Maleek was stirred from his rest by an ethereal melody that danced through the air. Intrigued, he followed the enchanting notes to the upper deck, where Venganza stood, an unexpected muse in the soft morning light. The assassin, whose very existence seemed to defy the conventional norms, was now revealing a facet that transcended her lethal persona.As Maleek reached the deck, he found himself spellbound by the enchanting tones that e
CHAPTER 124: THE COMPANY YOU KEEP!
Inside the once-empty inn, the atmosphere was charged with tension as Aaslaam and Ochosee engaged in a heated argument over the failed attack at the Southern Pillar. The inn itself had undergone extensive repairs since the Illuminairium invasion, a testament to the resilience of the people within. However, the scars of recent events lingered in the air, and the discussions within its walls mirrored the internal conflicts plaguing the kingdom.Aaslaam's frustration was palpable as he raised his voice, "Are you kidding? My sister, Palo, and I tried to warn you that we were not ready for an offense." His accusatory gaze fell upon Ochosee, who countered with a defensive huff, "Why are you blaming me for what happened? The council was the one who wanted to go on the offense. I was nearly following orders."Palo, attempting to diffuse the escalating tension, interjected, "Aaslaam, he is right. What happened was an unforeseen event. We did know that the Seklas had upgraded their defenses. Th
CHAPTER 125: BRIEFING THE ILLUMINARIUM COUNCIL
Ochosee stood resolute before the council senate, frustration etched across his face like a turbulent storm; as debriefed the royal monarch and council on a failed attack on the southern void pillar. The King Sephiroth, Queen Quemaria, and the council were in an uproar. Ochosee argued that going on the offense was a good idea but should have done a better recon of the void pillars' defenses. Palo, Aaslaam, and Sehesatia argued and pushed back against Ochosee's statement; due to losing more airships than needed. The chance of a successful defense is lowered now that they have fewer airships and soldiers.Ochosee slightly agreed that their situation had become direr, but he was emboldened by the knowledge that Seklas no longer controlled the Mikaelium Pillars. He argued that they could request ships and weaponry to commence the attack. Palo disagreed, arguing to withhold future attacks until they could better understand the southern void pillars' defense systems. The council agreed with
CHAPTER 126: CHOICES OF RAPID PURSUIT
A few hours after sailing from the Illuminarium Port City, Venganza found herself deep in thought in the ship's control room while Maleek meticulously planned the daily rations. With the vast expanse of the ocean stretching out before them and the weight of their mission heavy on their minds, every detail had to be carefully considered. They had a month before they reached the Azaealean borders, and every moment counted in their race against time. For Venganza, this was not just a journey but a desperate attempt to prolong her own life.On the ship's bridge, Venganza was seated in the captain's chair, her mind swirling with a potent mix of nostalgia and longing. Once the esteemed Viscountess of Nibiru Nei, she reminisced about the heady days when power flowed through her like a river, unchallenged save for the formidable will of Seklas. Oh, how she missed the intoxicating rush of authority that had once been hers to command. The memory of her reign haunted her, a ghostly echo of a tim
CHAPTER 127: A GENERAL'S TACTIC
As the radiant orb of the sun descended gracefully along the horizon, casting its warm hues upon the vast expanse of the sky, the surviving fleet of ships hailing from the illustrious Illuminarium Capital City embarked on their triumphant homecoming journey, gracefully gliding towards the city's sprawling airfields nestled to the western reaches of the bustling metropolis. Amidst the returning armada stood the indomitable figure of Ochosee, a seasoned veteran and revered squadron leader, whose steely gaze bore witness to the flames of determination flickering within beneath the shadow of his adorned uniform cap.With the rhythmic hum of engines gradually fading into silence as the vessels secured their berths, Ochosee wasted no time seizing the moment to lay bare his meticulously crafted strategy aimed at the relentless pursuit of the enigmatic adversaries Venganza and Maleek. Positioned before the solemn assembly of the council, his commanding voice reverberated with an aura of autho
CHAPTER 128: CONTEMPLATIONS & UNDERSTANDING
Palo found himself nestled within the protective confines of his living quarters, surrounded by the ancient stone walls of the Illuminarium Monastery. The flickering glow of the hearth fireplace cast dancing shadows across the room, illuminating the worn wooden furniture and lending an air of warmth to the otherwise somber atmosphere. His beloved wife, Ife, was seated across from him, a beacon of solace and understanding amid his turmoil.As she was affectionately known, Mama Ife gazed at her husband with a mixture of compassion and wisdom. She had long since grown accustomed to Palo's unpredictable nature, his propensity for action over contemplation. And yet, even she was taken aback by the recent events.Mama Ife gracefully placed the steaming dishes of yam porridge and roasted chicken in front of her husband, their warm aroma mingling with the crackling of the open fire beside them. As the flames danced, casting flickering shadows across the room, Palo hesitated before speaking, h
