Omega Summoner

The remaining members of Kami made sure to also erase their tracks upon leaving. Even if they wanted to kill the demon, the being in question has already fled and nowhere to be found. They left the scene without even checking clearly which actually made Adrian quite happy.

“They are no longer in our detection range. You can now take down the illusion.” Adrian stated as the smoke that is generated by Sirius’ domain dissipated completely.

When the domain from Sirius lifted, they would see Adrian and his soulbounds huddled up in a dome of vines that Wisteria created. One could even see that the vines were severely damaged and just one more attack would have destroyed them completely. Adrian released a sigh of relief as they did not see through the illusion that Sirius has casted.

[Sirius’ Samael’s Domain has been lifted.]

[All illusions shall now be dispelled.]

The reason for them staying in the area and not teleporting away is the fact that Adrian could not do it. The Vermillion Egg is actually so fragile that it cannot be transported via portals or teleportation. Adrian is also heavily exhausted, and his portals might not be stable enough if he creates one out of the blue. There might also be a complication with the portal if he conjures it while tired and being bombarded by different energy attacks.

“Still, this little one is such a troublemaker and very sensitive. If you were not that sensitive, then I would have teleported out of here as I already feel good from destroying most of them.” Adrian stated as he then smiled as two notifications popped up that is now very helpful to him.

[Your soulbound, Kanlaon, has awakened from his sleep.]

[He has gained deep insight into the powers that awakened inside of him. Enter you deep subconscious to fully activate the new domain skill that he has attained.]

[Your soulbound, Saena, has awakened from his sleep.]

[She has gained deep insight into the powers that awakened inside of her. Enter you deep subconscious to fully activate the new domain skill that she has attained.]

“Talk about good timing.” Adrian stated as he summoned Kanlaon and Saena.

When Adrian summoned both of them, he felt that their energy levels have been elevated to a higher degree. There are also some changes to their physical appearances even if it is minimal. Kanlaon now has shinier golden dragon scales while also having small elemental sparks coming out from his dragon orbs. Saena’s feathers became shinier, and she now creates a fiery trail when she flies.

“Master! What happened while we were asleep?” Kanlaon asked as he saw Adrian and the other injured.

“Nothing much. We just took care of some evil organization, but we failed to protect the Vermillion Bird of the South from being killed. Now, the Vermillion Bird of the South is reduced to this egg right here.” Adrian stated as he showed them the Vermillion Egg.

“It does contain the essence of the Vermillion Bird of the South, but I am afraid that what hatches from it will be a different iteration of it. It will never be the same one that master has gained a bond with.” Saena stated as she could feel the essence of flames from the Vermillion Egg but not the subconsciousness of the Vermillion Bird of the South.

“As long as it can live again then I would be happy. Now that is settled, we must head to the Dragon Lake Palace to check on the people that I suddenly teleported there. I hope that they were not attacked by the residents there as I suddenly teleported all of them to that location.” Adrian stated as he told Kanlaon that they will need to fly there normally as the egg cannot take dimensional travel.

“Let me heal you first, master.” Saena stated as she released a pleasing warm light that recovered health and reduced fatigue from Adrian’s body.

“Thank you, Saena. The rest of those that have bravely fought should rest for now. Kanlaon and Saena will be enough as escorts to go to the Dragon Lake Palace.” Adrian stated as he sat on top of Kanlaon’s head while Saena turned smaller to perch near him.

Once Adrian was seated in place and that the egg is being heated by Saena, Kanlaon immediately took to the skies and even used light magic to bend it. This made it look like Kanlaon is invisible while flying and it also showed his masterful use of magic compared to before. Kanlaon now has the finesse of a master when using the elements which means he can precisely control the output of magic that he needs to cast them.

“Let me take a look at the changes from the subconscious then.” Adrian stated as he slowly focused and suddenly found himself before the large tree inside of his body which is called the Qlipoth.

“You are here! It seems that you have been far too busy to even visit this place.” The Noblesse Adrian stated.

“You already know what happens even if I do not say anything. Tell me, where is the place that unlocks the potential of Kanlaon and Saena?” Adrian asked.

“See for yourself. They are now bound to the Qlipoth as a result of them becoming stronger. Your connection with them has soared greatly. How about you? When will your strength soar again? You have earned some of the qualifications to become me. Do you wish to take a small test to have some of my powers accessible to you?” The Noblesse Adrian stated.

“I will take that test once I arrive back at Avalon.” Adrian replied.

“Do you think so? Do you not need more power? More than ever? You have sensed that Samadhi True Flame that they have been spouting nonsense of. That is not a fire of natural order but a fragment of an Asmodian’s soul. I think that you also know which Asmodian that is… right?” The Noblesse Adrian stated.

“I know because I felt it when I touched those flames. It seems that the fragment of Abel’s Soul has turned into a mystical flame that the eastern continent worships. I do not know how they managed to harvest some parts of it, but I can give some guesses.” Adrian stated.

“What you are thinking is most likely true. The Samadhi True Flame is the fragment of Abel’s soul that contain all of his negative emotions. Instead of exploding and creating danger to the world, it must have been sealed and turned into a flame. Once you get that fragment then only one would be left. So, tell me… do you not wish to take my small test?” The Noblesse Adrian stated.

“Later. I will do so after checking the Dragon Lake Palace. I do not want to endanger the Vermillion Egg.” Adrian stated as he remembered that the Vermillion Egg is sensitive to energies around it which is why he cannot undergo the test now.

“If that is what you desire then I shall await you later.” The Noblesse Adrian stated as he vanished.

[You have touched Tagimron that represents disruption.]

[Kanlaon has fully unlocked Tagimron’s Domain.]

Adrian stared at the orb that has Kanlaon’s symbol on it and it is indeed the domain that was chosen for him. It is a domain that makes all that is unsightly become usable as if there is something usable for something that is disruptive. Adrian cannot figure it out clearly as of the moment but he will check the skill later.

[You have touched Thaumiel that represents duality between two opposing polarities.]

[Saena has fully unlocked Thaumiel’s Domain.]

Just like the other orbs, the orb that has Saena’s imprint is called Thaumiel. It is something that evades description even for Adrian’s standards as the runes around it were indecipherable. All he could make out from the runes is the fact that it is a power that represents some sort of inversion. He also told himself to study the skill descriptions later when they are in a safer place.

“Master, we are now near the entrance to the Dragon Lake Palace.” Kanlaon’s voice echoed deep inside of Adrian’s subconscious which made the latter exit it for the time being.

“I am fully awake now. I shall open the passage.” Adrian stated as he peered into the pocket dimension and created a gate.

The gate took the shape of a whirlpool that opened up to greet Adrian and his soulbounds. Kanlaon did not even blink or doubt his master as he plunged into the whirlpool without hesitation. As soon as they entered the whirlpool, a passageway made of swirling water surrounded them. A few moments later, Kanlaon came out of the end and arrived at the outer edge of the Dragon Lake Palace.

“That is not something that I thought would happen.” Adrian muttered as he saw the first floor of the Vermillion Pagoda floating beside the palace of the Dragon Lake. He also saw a very angry Grand Mistress Nu Wa along with his friends.
