NovelEnglishBook 10: Chapter 50: Born (2)
“I see.” Dyon said with a lot less enthusiasm than the Emperor Giants expected. “So this enemy of yours is that powerful, hm?”
Emperor Angelus froze before smiling bitterly.
“Don’t you mean our enemy? This is a fiend all of us with angel blood must face.”
Dyon smiled lightly. He knew well that there was this so-called enemy the angels had to face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWho this enemy was? He had no idea. At this point, Dyon had so many enemies bearing down from everywhere, he even felt that one more was meaningless to him.
However, wasn’t this matter far too convenient for the Emperor Giants?
They gained his protection, and a chance to become true angels, for what exactly?
Would they make a large difference to Dyon’s overall battle strength? Probably. There was a reason, after all, the Nephilim were the strongest alliance in all of the Mortal Plane. Giants were known for their overwhelming battle prowess.
But, was this alone enough? Dyon didn’t know.
Nothing in his life had ever come easy. For such a thing to fall into his lap like this. He was certain that there was a deeper matter at play here, one that would definitely come back to bite him. historical
“Tell me about this enemy.” Dyon said casually.
Of course, these words confused the Emperor Giants, until they suddenly ‘understood’.
Maybe, Dyon wanted to check if they really were one of his kind. After all, the difference between them was simply too large. While Dyon could use Ancient Grand Circle Magic, they couldn’t even use the simplest angel magic.
Other than having stronger bodies that normal giants, and having a unique energy cultivation talent characteristic the giant race who normally focused on body cultivation didn’t have, there was nothing special about them.
They thought that Dyon wanted to see how much they knew. If they knew enough and passed his test, then he would accept them. If not, they would fail and be rejected by him, forced to face this enemy alone.
Unfortunately, they had no way of knowing that Dyon was simply using this misunderstanding to squeeze information out of them. Though Jade had left him the key to a lot of secrets, there were still many matters he was completely unaware of.
And since Dyon didn’t know of it, there was only one explanation… This enemy resided within the Ancient Battlefield!
Dyon knew well that in the former timeline, because his cultivation had been sealed, he missed out on the Ancient Battlefield, forced to hide and bide his time.
The Mortal Plane that Dyon conquered was nothing like this one. That Mortal Plane was occupied by many Failed Clans. Though some Clans like the Nephilim and Sapientia survived, many more perished.
Luckily, due to this fact, Dyon had information about the strongest Failed Clans, which was why he was still so apprehensive Ancient Battlefield despite his advantages…
He knew something that no one else knew. In the past, when the Ancient Battlefield descended, Faith would be the advantage of the defenders. However, this time… Faith would be sealed by the Heavens!
These Failed Clans, having been raised and tempered in the harsh environment of the Ancient Battlefield, would become the new pillars of the Mortal Plane. Their strength wasn’t something the Mortal Plane could match.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDyon had a feeling that the enemies of the angels were within these very Clans…
Taking a deep breath, Emperor Angelus began.
“The Mortal Plane has had four Eras to now, three of which have already been completed, and the fourth of which may come to end even faster than the shortest third…
“Back during the first Era, the Titans ruled everything and they were the light of the human race. It was because of them that we prospered through an era that was meant to be ruled by beasts.
“However, the Titans too became the very tyrants they had expelled. The deeper they delved into the Titan path, the more difficult it became for them to control their carnal desires. When we neared the end of the Era, many of them had already become no different from beasts themselves…
“It was then that we humans did what we always did. We fought, scratching and clawing toward a light of hope.
“We began to delve into a new path, a path we believed was far purer: the energy path.
“The Chaos Era already had a wealth of energy and qi types, but they were simply too difficult to grasp and control. In addition, their fields were very narrow.
“One might spend their whole lives comprehending a single qi type and become powerful down one path, but suddenly realize that it didn’t fulfill the goals you needed it for.
“This matter was what truly held the human race back from confronting the titans. Qi types were exceptionally powerful, but they simply weren’t versatile enough. Even the greatest of geniuses could only wield three or four at most, and these individuals were too sparse in number.
“This was when the human race made what was arguably the greatest advancement in its history…
“This was none other than the creation of Conventional Qi!”
