Unbound Majesty! II
Unbound Majesty! II
Everybody had regained their freedom to move at some point, the Daolords present on the scene staring up towards the figure of the Great Conqueror and the three new existences near him with awe.
He had appeared, and all problems were resolved!
This was what others knew of the majesty of the Great Conqueror the most.
The figures of the Daolords and Antiquities from the three Houses nearby had eyes of fanaticism when gazing upwards at the four figures, observing as the Great Conqueror tapped his finger one last time to cause the appearance of a pristine golden archway in space.
With an impassive expression, he passed through this Golden archway as soon after, the three Family Heads glanced at each other before they also disappeared into this Golden archway!
All that was left behind were the baffled and awed figures that were defending against a Grand Primordial Beast and Tainted Ones.
Noah appeared before the protected figures of Adelaide and others that had the Emperor Penguin standing in front of with its flippers crossed dangerously, his Animus Summons all clustered in the same area as they gazed towards the direction of the Golden archway.
Forefather Isaac and Foremother Rose also carried their injured bodies to glance at the archway that soon began to fade, unknown lights flashing through their eyes as each had their own thoughts!
The only one that was currently not even staring at the disappearing archway where the Great Conqueror had gone into and was followed by the three Family Heads...was Halcyon.
Her glimmering golden eyes were currently locked on Noah's figure, her disheveled state quickly disappearing as she regained her regality, her figure beginning to float towards his position!
----
Inside the golden archway.
The scene within was a fantastical one, the three Family Heads knowing very well where the doorway they stepped in would lead to as when their bodies arrived, they expanded rapidly to become multiple times larger than Galaxies.
All three were at the beginning of a starry path- a path that led upwards like a staircase as it glimmered with stellar lights.
This was all. A single stellar Stairway in the void of space, everything around them glimmering in a black darkness as the only thing that one could see here was at the very top of the stellar path that held four vibrant thrones larger than multiple Galaxies!
For glimmering thrones multiple times larger than Galaxies floating serenely in the void of space!
One was gold to represent the House of Havenbreaker, green for the House of Springforge, and red for the House of Stormdust. Apart from these three, there was a single even larger golden throne facing all of them that was made from Primordial Essence, this throne glimmering a pristine white as at this moment, Aegon was situated on it silently.
With light steps that seemed heavy at the same time, the three Family Heads walked up the stellar path until they reached their respective seats, a myriad of expressions filling each of their faces as they took their positions and sat gracefully.
"..."
There was a sense of beauty and majesty to it all as the three thrones faced a single one, the being situated on the largest throne speaking out calmly as his gaze seemed to be looking extremely far away.
"Today, a Primordial Beast appeared in the heart of the Primordial Empire, and the power of a Cosmic Treasure was utilized to keep my gaze away from it."
THRUM!
His words were said simply, yet they seemed to cause the surroundings themselves to tremble as the three situated figures had sharp lights flash across their eyes!
The Family Head of Springforge turned her head full of verdant green hair as she seemed about to speak, but Aegon's voice rang out once more before anyone could intercede.
"Do you all remember the Savant Cosmos we came across millions of years ago?" As if he hadn't just spoken of the shocking fact that a Primordial Beast appeared within the Empire under the help of someone inside it- that someone likely being one of the three sitting before him- Aegon took a hard shift as he spoke about something else!
His voice continued to echo out as he gazed upwards from his white throne, his eyes seemingly looking to a point millions of years ago.
"In the Savant Cosmos, they had the unique race of Bloodline Devourers that immensely raised their power through Devouring bloodlines of others."
"Uniquely, one could also devour the potent bloodline of their own family to gain even greater levels of power, such a thing being forbidden within this Cosmos...but it was exactly what occurred in the Ruling Bloodline of the Cosmos."
His voice was steady and gave off great strength, the story he had begun to tell causing the eyes of the three Family Heads to turn somber as many memories came to them.
"The Emperor of the Royal Bloodline of the Savant Cosmos had a daughter he absolutely adored. A daughter that he would give anything to make her happy. But an incident occurred where this very same daughter rebelled for the purpose of power- allowing bloodlust to overcome her and devouring the bloodlines of all she saw whether it was a sibling, aunt, or even mother."
RUMBLE!
"She devoured all of their bloodlines as she sought more power, as she sought to stand above everything with the Cosmos as she even stood before the Emperor- before her father that she knew loved her so dearly that he hadn't even once been harsh with her."
Aegon's voice continued smoothly as the temperature in the surroundings became exceedingly cold, his gaze returning to the three existences on their thrones as he finished in a questioning manner.
"Faced with the death of his wives and progeny under the hands of the daughter he adored so much- faced with betrayal he never once expected in his life...do you all remember what that Emperor did? What he did to the being he loved the most in his Cosmos?"
THRUM!
His voice crackled with domineering essence as he spoke, his calm eyes glancing at the three figures as he called out lightly to the drop dead gorgeous Family Head of the House of Springforge.
"Little Green?"
The verdant hair of the powerful existence called Little Green by the Great Conqueror rose her head up as she replied calmly.
"To the one he loves the most and the one that betrayed him...he ripped out her Origin and soul as he devoured her Bloodline while making sure she was still alive to feel everything."
WAA!
Her reply caused all of them to replay the scene they saw long ago, this unique space with four floating thrones feeling extremely cold at this moment as Aegon nodded calmly on his throne.
He fully sat on it as his figure leaked out power and majesty, the voice of an Emperor ringing out at this moment.
"Yes. He ripped apart the one he loved the most with more savagery than even his worst enemies. That was the result of betrayal."
…!
Silence reigned in the surroundings as the recollection finished, Aegon staring at the three thrones and the figures within them silently as he sent his message across!
He didn't accuse any of them nor even talk about it much, simply recalling something they had gone through millions of years ago. This was because the relationships between these beings situated upon the thrones were too deep! There were too many years, too much history that others couldn't even imagine.
So Aegon gave a simple reminder of something they all witnessed long ago.
But just this...was a reminder more terrifying than anyone could ever wish for!
