Village Head's Debauchery

A destructive crimson aura surged from his body, folding the air like paper before shattering like glass struck by a hammer. Deep chasms appeared around him as the fierce, boiling aura enveloped his surroundings.

He had posed his questions as a test to see how Aegis of the Arctic Deity would answer and confirm whether he was telling the truth or lying. Thus, when Aegis of the Arctic Deity gave the most flawed answer any being could provide, he couldn't control his rage and allowed it to spill out.

The other two beside him couldn't help but feel their anger seeping out of their bodies, transforming the environment around them. Initially, they didn't want to get involved, so they left it to their companions as it seemed like a manageable task.

However, witnessing everything that had transpired, they now actively desired to get involved and slowly destroy the being before them, piece by piece, including the territory he was protecting.

Although it might not be enough to atone for his mistakes, it was at least a just punishment for trying to insult their Sovereign.

Hearing the man with ashen skin's response, Aegis of the Arctic Deity observed them briefly before shaking his head in defeat.

Initially, he thought he had found a way to reason with the beings before him, as he didn't want to escalate the situation by fighting them. However, realizing that they most likely saw his words as false, he understood that there was no way to reason any longer, and the only way to end this confrontation would be for one of them to be eradicated.

The ashen-skinned man stretched his hand towards the Aegis of the Arctic Deity's barrier. A large mass of crimson aura formed at the centre of his palm, the size of a boulder.

The atmosphere shattered, sensing the immense attack, and space fractured into several dimensions, unable to contain the force. An oppressive feeling permeated the area as he directed the attack toward Aegis of the Arctic Deity and unleashed it.

Law of Destruction: Annihilation Burst!

BAAANNGG!! BOOOOMM!!

….........

Second Border City

Orion's Manor

Seth arrived at Orion's manor, bypassing the formalities by not stopping at the gates to meet the guards and announce his arrival. He rasped his knuckles against the door several times until he finally received a response from within.

"I'm coming! I'm coming!" A familiar voice rang from inside.

Seth instantly recognized the woman as Orion's mother and partner as the door swung open.

"Rightward Stronghold Leader Seth!" Celeste exclaimed in surprise, also quickly recognizing Seth.

However, a frown couldn't help but appear on her face as she wondered why he was there so early in the morning. Although the sky was still shrouded in darkness with a few storm clouds brewing, they had learned to tell time without relying on the sky.

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm "Is Orion around?" Seth asked immediately, interrupting Celeste before she could pose her question.

"Yes, he's here," Celeste replied, her eyes narrowing at Seth. "Why are you looking for Orion so early in the morning?"lightsnovel

"Mrs. Celeste, I don't have any time to waste.Thisis importantinformation that I need to convey to Warrior Orion as soon as possible," Seth responded urgently.

He felt the urge to scream to get Orion's attention and deliver his message, but he restrained himself, mindful of the babies in the house.

"If it's that important, Rightward Stronghold Leader Seth, you can tell me. I'll make sure it reaches Orion directly," Celeste assured, folding her arms with a stubborn expression.

She sensed Seth's hesitation in sharing theimportantinformation. Due to the number of people in the manor, he was likely concerned about the potential for leaks. To ease his worries, she reassured him of her confidentiality.

Seth sighed deeply. "Okay. The information I have was given to me by Aegis of the Arctic Deity himself. We might be under attack by something capable of eradicating the Orion's Cities, prompting Aegis of the Arctic Deity to exert all his strength. In case things worsen, we all need to gather in one place so he can lower the barrier and conserve more of his strength," he explained, his serious gaze on Celeste.

Celeste's expression faltered momentarily, despair flickering across her features before she composed herself swiftly. "I will go and get Orion," she replied, closing the door decisively and walking toward Orion'smasterbedroom.

"ORIOONN!!" A resounding voice echoed through the door.

Within five minutes, Orion descended and swiftly opened the door to meet Seth. His expression was solemn as he said, "Tell me everything that happened."

Seth nodded and quickly explained all the details of what had transpired. When he finished, Orion's expression turned to one of shock.

Orion gazed at the brewing storm clouds, noting their increased intensity from the day before. Upon closer inspection, he could discern an icy snowstorm within the stormy sky.

Initially, he might have dismissed it as part of the Vylkr veil phenomenon outcomes. However, learning that it was another unnatural occurrence, unease crept into his heart.

Whatwas this new catastrophe thathad prompted Aegis of the Arctic Deity'spersonalintervention?

And was their decision to burn the Vylkr vines a mistake?

Orion gritted his teeth as unease and fear surged within him. Without hesitation, he leapt into the air, intent on rushing to the Third Border City to assess the situation.

However, before he could proceed, Seth noticed Orion's movement and swiftly leapt up, grabbing his right leg and forcefully bringing him back down to the ground.

Boomm!

"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?!" Seth shouted, holding Orion down. "IF YOU'RE PLANNING ON GOING TO THE THIRD BORDER CITY, FORGET ABOUT IT! AEGIS OF THE ARCTIC DEITY HIMSELF IS DEALING WITH THIS SITUATION CAUTIOUSLY. WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU CAN DO ANYTHING EXCEPT HINDER HIS PLANS FOR OUR PROTECTION?"

Orion lay within the small crater where he had crashed and gazed up at Seth as he processed his words.

"The only thing you need to do right now is prepare your wife and children, gather any important valuables, and also inform those in the Second Border City to move to the First Border City for safety immediately!" Seth continued.
