Omega Summoner

“Does that mean that a monster that could control both fire and lightning is present in this very mountain? If such a thing is true, then the young people that enter here would have been trying to find it.” Peridot stated as she could see that the story must have been made up.

“But if the story is true then it would make sense why the House of the Azure Dragon is here on this very mountain. What kind of monster in the eastern continent has both fire and lightning abilities? I know that monsters with two attributes are very rare especially when it comes to stronger monsters.” Adrian stated as he knew that monsters with dual attributes are very rare.

“Even in the books about monsters that I have read only detail a few. The few that are in the book is even said to have been never proven and just pure speculation.” Peridot stated.

“Why did they write it as a speculation when someone recorded it?” Adrian asked.

“The reason being that those monsters were never seen again in the wild or in the eastern continent in general. Monsters like those would have territories that they protect and are very sensitive when it comes to trespassers..” Peridot stated as she knows that there are only five private domains in the eastern continent but those that govern it do not wield fire or lightning.

“Then if you would have a guess, what do you think is the monster told in the legends?” Adrian asked as he is not familiar with monsters in eastern continent nor read about them.

“If I would guess then it would most likely be a Qilin. Only something like that would make the House of the Azure Dragon move.” Peridot stated as that would be the only thing that fits the criteria.

“Mistress! If that is true, then the House of the Azure Dragon wants to have the power of the emperor.” Saru suddenly exclaimed.

“Why would they get the power of an emperor just because they will get the Qilin?” Adrian asked.

“It is more like a rumor because in the past. A Qilin only appears with the imminent arrival or passing of a sage or illustrious ruler. The Qilin basically became the symbol that someone prominent will either die or appear.

In the stories that we read, its appearance is more linked to the arrival of a sage or an illustrious ruler. Since dragons cannot be tamed back then, the Qilin is the closes thing that the eastern continent as a beast that determines the rulers.

The sovereigns are the holy beasts, but the ruler of the people is either a Sage or an Emperor. The House of the Azure Dragon are probably going to use the Qilin for their blatant excuse that they are descendants of the First Emperor chosen by the four holy beasts.” Peridot stated as she could see why the House of the Azure Dragon would be desperate to get their hands on the Qilin.

“Since Master Adrian is casually riding a dragon, the perception of the people might be changing since they believed that no one could tame a dragon. Even the Sages of the past could not achieve such a feat.” Saru stated.

“No wonder the people looked like they were bowing when I passed through. I thought they were intimidated but they were just showing respect to their object of admiration. So, do you want to stay here in the eastern continent and act like a king, Kanlaon?” Adrian stated.

“This place is very boring master as they do not have fun things to do. It is much better to be besides master as he is the best in the world.” Kanlaon replied as he is now in his human form.

“Why is the eastern continent boring? You can have fun with me in the manor all day if you like to stay here.” Peridot stated jokingly but she is shocked by Kanlaon’s reply. ℴ

“Its no fun being inside a house. Master always goes on exciting adventures that are really fun. Also, we get to fight monsters more powerful than ourselves. There is also this exciting feeling when I beat them that makes me feel like I am the strongest.” Kanlaon replied while Sirius is nodding in agreement.

“I see. It seems that you are an exact carbon copy of your master. It is scary already with one of him but two more is already spells doom for the world.” Peridot stated as she looked at Adrian with judging eyes.

“Enough about that. What can you tell us about the Qilin? If it really is what they are after, then we need to know everything about it if we are going to steal it from them.” Adrian stated as he wanted to change the topic.

“All I know are the basics and that is their so-called attribute is Lightning Fire. They also have one horn, and they look like a mix between a dragon and a horse. Some depictions say that they are a mix of a dragon and a deer which is why they are often labeled as draconic creatures, but they are not related to dragons at all.

You could say that it is more of a unicorn because they bring luck to whoever sees them. They do not have dragon blood in them as they do not have a skill that is inherent to dragons which is Dragon Fear.” Peridot stated as she recalled all the things that she has read on the Qilin.

“If the legend is true and if it is a Qilin then it would appear tonight.” Adrian stated as he knew what kind of event will happen at night.

“Why would it appear tonight?” Peridot asked as she is curious why Adrian is sure.

“Because today is when those that celebrate the Cerulean Moon Festival. It is a day where the moons in the night sky are full and change color to blue. It is also the time where any type of water attribute magic will be at its fullest.

Mages that can use water magic practice it as their training and understanding of it will increase. Did you not have a similar festival here in the eastern continent?” Adrian asked as he knows that there should be a Goddess of the Moon in the eastern continent.

“People in the eastern continent rarely pray upon the gods and goddesses as they rarely answer prayers to the point that their shrines are small and only a handful of people operate it. Also, why did you not tell me about this!

I have been locked out of that library for days when I could have been training my water elemental magic. I better do something with that attitude of yours!” Peridot stated as she is ready to pounce on Adrian, but Saru stopped her.

“Sorry about that. I thought you already know since you are usually the one that updates us on these types of things. Also, why are there only small shrines in the eastern continent when there are holy beasts that protect each corner of the eastern continent?” Adrian asked as he wanted to know more of the history of the eastern continent.

“The eastern continent had lots of gods and goddesses back then when it was just a fresh nation. The only problem is that there were more troublesome gods than helpful ones. The royal family back then were also treated as gods as they had the land’s protection.

Due to the will of the people that did not want to get oppressed, they prayed not to the gods but to themselves. Thus, the four holy beasts are born. Not from the belief that the people must serve the gods, but the gods must serve the people.

The four holy beasts are not born from the world itself or created during the first phase. They came from the power of the people to withstand adversity and hardships that the gods gave them. Hence, the holy beasts will never die as long as there are some people that believe in them.

The holy beasts might not die but they also grow weak if the people they sworn to protect no longer sees them as necessary. This is the reason why the holy beasts protect their respective lands with vigor and established their own houses. Their own houses are like their own personal police force.” Peridot stated and Adrian listened with great intent as this is something that cannot be read in the forums.

The knowledge that Peridot has on the eastern continent is basically insider information. Only someone that could be a member of the eastern continent’s society could ever know it.

“So, the gods lost their power when no one believed in them anymore. It would mean that they chose another way to cope so that they can stay in their land.” Adrian muttered as he suddenly remembered Yinyue.
