Chapter 217 - 173.2 : Enlightenmen (1/2)
The topic of their talking soon shifted from Rose to her newly acquired armor. Many speculated that the armor was Heavenly ranked, from the appearance to the aura around it, there was no doubt that it's not any ordinary armor.
Rose didn't hesitate in wearing it, such armors automatically match the size of their host, so it only took a few seconds for it to be worn by Rose, who replaced her green armor by this new one.
With the translucent white armor and its aura, coupled with Rose beauty, which was not kingdom toppling but she couldn't be called ugly or average either, Rose became prettier and pleasant to the eyes, perhaps it was a special effect of the armor or it's just that the armor and her power complimented each other and created such atmosphere around her.
The gargoyle female didn't stay in the room anylonger, she left the room with Ehrendil protecting her back. They wanted to gain priceless treasures but this armor was enough for them and it would boost their confidence and may lead them to emerge victorious against the Pigolo.
Her spot was quickly replaced by their archenemies, the pigolo, which couldn't secure a spot until now. Even in such a place, the gargoyles were aggressive against them since the start of the war, so they couldn't send any of their juniors to a spot without fearing the craziness of their enemy.
Emily sneaked behind the Gods protecting Kithel and stood behind her. Some people noticed that her spot was now free but none was brave enough to go ahead and seize it.
As for Arthur, he was still sitting in meditation near the golem, however, for some reason, he started feeling kind of uneasy. It was a feeling similar to the one he felt after taking down 'Medusa'. It was an instinctive feeling of danger he obtained through the countless possessions he did, it wasn't always right, but when it is, then a great danger is coming either for him or the people around him.
Despite this, he calmed down with the help of the ethereal state and brushed away the distracting thoughts. He just needed to get out of the tomb, whatever happens later will be dealt at that time, he should take things step by step and worry about the present instead of the future.
A bit of time passed since the enlightenment of Rose yet nothing similar occurred which caused the hyped crowd to calm down and return to waiting for their turn or just lay down and watch who will get what.
Arthur returned to normal when the uneasy feeling was gone, he was at his peak with his Health, Mana, and Nether Energy back to full, moreover, he had his new mastery of Spatial Attribute and Space Bender title.
The silence was broken at last when a weird sound similar to a waterfall resounded in all the room, this shocked the crowd and caused a lot of surprised gasps to come out, amongst them were the old Gods, which looked at Kithel with awe.
The sound of the waterfall became much clearer after a few seconds and an illusory mountain materialized above Kithel, it was not the size of a real mountain but it looked pretty realistic with the enormous waterfall. The waterfall's length was from the peak of the mountain till its bottom, its sound could be heard and its water fell directly on Kithel.
Soon, the middle statue's eyes opened and stared at Kithel, just like Rose's case.
”It's a materialization enlightenment! indeed, a dragon father cannot have a dog son!”
The old man accompanying Elo Huo nodded as he stared at Kithel and the mountain, he wasn't jealous of the boy but envious that the Kang Family have such a genius. Compared to Kithel, Elo Huo seemed to be struggling and from the looks of it, he won't be able to gain a special enlightenment such as Amidel's son.
A large pillar of blue light covered Kithel, it rose all the way to the roof and caused all the seated youngsters to wake up from the meditation. The pillar of light the thinned until only a portion of Kithel was touched by it, in response to this, the young man didn't move, with his eyes still closed and a meditating position, he waited for the statue to act.
The middle status didn't shot rays of light like earlier, instead, it took out its sword and throw it at Kithel. The sword, which was made of stone, transformed into a blue beam of light which stopped inches away from Kithel, it slowly became smaller until it becomes a 1.3-meter long sword with a white handle and blue snake coiling around it. The tip of the sword had droplets of water dripping from it and the coiling snake had its eyes opened, directly staring at Kithel as if testing his willpower to resist it.
With eyes full of determination, Kithel stared back at the snake whilst stretching his hand to the handle, which was unresponsive at first but after he exerted more force, it finally obeyed and let him grab it. The snake seemed to have accepted him as it closed its eyes and laid dormant until the moment Kithel uses the sword.
