85 Eve, the Holy Mother (1/2)

As Zatiel rested, he focuses on the changes in his body, particularly the transformation of his original heart into an Elemental Chaos Heart.

To his delight, Zatiel finds out that during his stay inside the cave and by using the elemental chaos that those pieces of fallen star released, the transformation of his heart has advanced in 1%. This may not be considered much but it took him four years to reach 50%, so the improvement in the transformation speed is incredible.

Another good news was that despite increasing his speed that much, it didn't shake his foundation at all and even his heart and the chaotic core were more efficacious than before, so there was no fear of leaving some hidden damage by using this acceleration method.

Having made sure there was no problem with his heart, he focuses on the task he had put one of his minds to work since the moment his fight with Feiner ended.

....

Two individuals were coming out from the cave, they were Eye Lords and floating beside them was a bag, that appears to be made from shadow threads, which contained pieces of fallen star of all sizes, and by the color they have, their purity was very high.

The duo was composed of a male and a female, both at the Master level. The man had brown hair, his body was around three meters tall and muscular, displaying a great power, the eyes on his forehead were completely white and there was no clear influence over a certain type of natural energy. As for the woman, she has red hair and her body was somewhat short and petite, her face was beautiful and there was a certain wickedness that could arouse most men, the eyes on her forehead were completely black.

There was something special about the woman, and it was the fact that even though the sun was on his peak, she generated no shadow.

They were flying without a worry to the platform from Dynasty, but they were both shocked when they saw Tritus lying on the floor and the bloody aura covering his body and trying to heal him.

Both of them knew that although the man was only at the Advanced level and has not yet started to learn his next Rank Spell to reach the following level, he was someone very powerful as his bloodline was of the King level, and thanks to his background the trump cards he posses were impressive.

”Azel, how Tritus condition can be so severe, merely days after the start of the excavation, especially since you were tasked to protect him?” It was the man who makes the question, and despite sounding like someone concerned for the condition of an ally, on his face was only curiosity.

Azel has been under great stress this couple of hours, as he searched for a way out of this predicament, and hearing the tone the man used, made him frown, yet it was their help he needed so after taking a moment to calm down, he spoke.

”It was the man at Rank 1 who inflicted the injuries, he used a runic set and took advantage of the fact that Young Master was afflicted by powerful curses making his energy go wild and weakened his defenses. Although the item given by his father saved his life, the attack was too sudden and it could not stop the damage.”

After hearing Azel words the duo look at Zatiel full of surprise, since being able to display such a power even with the help of a runic set was something only those great geniuses could do, but since there was no reason for the man to lie to them, they accept it as the truth, besides in their group there was also a talent like that.

”Someone like that will grow to be a powerhouse from the Aeternum Empire, and his action shows a complete disregard for the Eye Dynasty.” Having said those words, Azel gives a meaningful glare at the duo.

The association that the Empire and Dynasty have maintained during the dozen of thousands of years they have existed could be considered neutral, with neither power doing a formal attack on the other or trying to steal their land. Although some fights and deaths have happened, those were conflicts between individuals and did not represent the power behind them.

But during this last century, this relationship has become more and more hostile, despite the fact that there has not been any fight between them in the Magi World. This friction between those influences happened for the conflict among the true leaders of those powers how are no longer in this world, those Law Beings that reside on the void.

As Eye Lords, both the man and woman were aware of this conflict, as for the specific reason behind it, that was something individuals like them could not know. But even after hearing of the talent of Zatiel, the duo only sneered at Azel, since even someone at Soul Forging could not affect the action of those mighty Law Beings, much less them.

Even after seeing the expression fo the duo, Azel was not let down since those words could only be considered a probing.
