把雪白的岳弄怀孕了

Chapter 125 Orion, The Forgotten



Nonetheless..... 'This should be the main deal' Prince Wyatt thought. He stood in front of an enormous gate. The gate was wide and seemed to stretch on forever, rising into the sky, and disappearing into the clouds.

It was made of a dull, silver metal that looked as if it had stood there for centuries, and was covered in intricate designs and symbols that Prince Wyatt couldn't quite make out.

Yet, despite the gate's intimidating size and appearance, Prince Wyatt walked towards it. If what he had just learned was correct, then this is what every ascendant who had done the ritual to become an ascendant and accept the blessing of the god of the chosen path had gone through.

However, even though he wasn't surprised by the gate, there was one thing that left him troubled. He was not supposed to be here, and for good reasons too.

Number one, he was already an ascendant but didn't know how to use his abilities or ascend yet. Which meant that the former Prince Wyatt had already done the ritual and had come here.

Number two, he hadn't even performed any ritual or carried out the procedures for becoming an ascendant. The only thing he tried to do was ascend and get control of his powers.

And now, he was here.

Though he had other reasons to believe that maybe it was because he was a new soul in the possession of this body, which, in some way dragged him over here when he tried to ascend.

"Hahh!" The more he thought about it, the more convoluted his mind became.

Nonetheless, he stopped in front of the gate, grabbed the handle, and pulled it. Unsurprisingly, the gate swung open with ease, revealing a mysterious pearlescent road that seemed to stretch onward for miles.

Without hesitation, Prince Wyatt stepped through the gate and onto its route.

"Welcome Mortal, you, who have chosen the path of godhood and decided to receive the blessing of a god" A husky stern voice sounded beside him.

…....…..

I snapped my head towards the source of the voice. In front of me stood an old man with a simple old-fashioned grey threadbare tunic and trousers that hang off his bony frame.

Despite his advanced age, he stood tall and proud, with an air of otherworldly wisdom around him. It was as if he had stepped out of another time, another place, appearing suddenly, as if by magic.

"Magic!" The words flowed out of my mouth with an amusing tone. The meaning was obvious. As long as it is magic, then even the most outlandish of things will not seem impossible.

"Mortal?" The old man spoke.

"Yes" I responded.

He nodded. "Follow me" He turned around and walked forward on the rainbow-coloured bridge.

Yeah, that also sounded a little weird in my head if I considered my previous world. Nonetheless, I shook off the thought and walked behind him.

We strolled down the bridge for minutes. Minutes turned into hours. And then after several hours of which I had lost count of, the old man in front of me halted his steps and turned around.

He stared at me with a frown. His piercing blue eyes seemed to look right through my body as if he could see into my very soul.

I doubted such a thought, but I didn't dismiss it.

"How did you get here without performing a ritual?" He asked. His voice boomed across the atmosphere and echoed into my ears.

If what Annabelle had told me was true, then the old man standing in front of me was someone who had helped a lot of ascendants begin their journey to ascension.

In order words, he is an immortal with an unknown background. An entity whose identity and threat level are unknown. Someone, who I couldn't treat with disrespect.

And so, I answered truthfully "I don't know".

His brows furrowed. His lips twitched. And if I didn't know any better, I would say that this man had never frowned in a century or two, because of the rigid way his face morphed into irritation.

"Are you sure?" Somehow, his voice grew sterner.

"Yes" I nodded.

"This...." The old man turned his head to the other side. A thoughtful expression appeared on his face as he flickered his eyes to my body before he turned his head away again.

"Hmmm…. This is the first time I have ever experienced such a thing. A mortal coming to this space without performing the necessary rituals…" He muttered in confusion "Strange! Very strange".

I didn't know whether to clap at my sudden accomplishment or dread the fact that I might have just done the impossible in the most unsubtle way possible.

Two emotions sprung within my heart. Yes, I felt like doing both.

"Mortal, can you tell me your name?" He asked. His aged eyes scrutinized my body from the top to the bottom.

I contemplated my answer "Jonathan. Jonathan Elijah".

Yeah, given the situation, I wasn't in the best position to think about a better name. And most of all, even if he has seen my face, there was no need for me to give a strange entity whose benevolence or cruelty I know not.

It was a risk if he discovered that I was lying. But it was a risk I was willing to take!

He peered at me before a tired sigh escaped his lips "You are speaking the truth".

Internally, I felt relieved.

"You seemed troubled. What is it?" The old man said with a questioning expression on his face.

I sucked an imaginary breath through my nose and asked the questions that have been plaguing my mind "Who are you?".

My question came with an unsteady silence that enveloped the conversation.

I thought that his silence was a silent refusal to my question, so I contemplated. Change the question or not?

However, the decision was taken out of my hand when a low chuckle escaped the old man's lips.

"It's been long" He said. ".. It's been a very long time since a mortal had asked me this question" He repeated, and said.

"Listen well" He smiled at me and added, "I am Orion the forgotten. I am the ordained one task to forever lead mortals on their journey to become ascendant".

"I nodded. "But I am the only one here" I assumed that with the size of this world, there will be several others just beginning their ascension at this very moment. Or several minutes or hours before and after mine.

"Yes, you are. But, I am also attending to several other mortals like you. Several others who had just begun their road to ascension are on another space like this, and is also been attended by me" He answered.

"How?" Unknowingly, the word slipped out of my mouth,

For the first time, his rigid expression morphed into a grin. "Because I am omnipresent. I am all-knowing and can be in multiple duplicated spaces such as this at once".

He added "Even right now, as I speak to you I speak to several others also" His words echoed around the space around us. "Is that enough for your question?" He questioned. An amusing smile adorned his face when he saw my face mixed with confusion and utter disbelief.

"Regardless, I only told you all this because of your unusualness, So, for your sake, be sure to keep it to yourself" He explained.

I nodded my head in understanding. Of course, I was going to keep this to myself. I already had a lot of secrets to hide, and going around telling people that I knew the name of the omnipresence being that everyone had met during their first ascension was something I would never willingly expose.

"Very well. Now, depart from my sight" Those were the last words I had before my vision went blank. "Come back when you have done the necessary rituals".

….....

The scene in front of her scared her.

Nina looked at the floating Prince Wyatt, seated crossed-legged in the air. She didn't know when it started, but the sudden influx of magical energy spiked her senses and steered her awake.

Her heartbeat sped as she stared at the floating debris of elements in the air. All of them circulated and rotated around Prince Wyatt. He wasn't burnt by the flames, nor drowned by the streams of water. He wasn't pierced by the blades of wind nor buried under the rocks. It felt as though they were all in harmony with him.

"This…" Nina stared in disbelief as his magical energy rose sharply. He ascended with unyielding speed. She had never seen someone ascend with such momentum as though it was as effortless as flipping a switch.

"Prince Wyatt!" She screamed. If this went on then the whole room will be destroyed. "PRINCE WYATT!!" She screamed, again. She had tried to get close to him, but, she couldn't approach him without being hurt.
