Chapter 128: - The Agent of Change
Broken stood still amidst the chaos. The fierce winds howled around him while enormous vines whipped through the air with wild abandon, demolishing everything in their path. His eyes narrowed as he watched Polly's form gradually dissolve, her body struggling against the pulsing waves of energy.
He murmured softly, "Polly, return to your world."
He gazed as she vanished from his sight, dissipating like a wisp of smoke.
Broken realized that this phenomenon had led to the deaths of many members of the Ass Guild, but he couldn't deny that it was him that had triggered it. This catastrophe had unfolded due to a series of events with minuscule chances colliding, resulting in this monumental occurrence. He had obtained a soul stone, and the effect of Bountiful Harvest granted him a second soul stone, culminating in the manifestation of the creature now before him.
Goldrich, his astral form seated next to Charmelyn, remarked, "My curiosity got the better of me, so I had to use this ability to discover what happened."
Elincia, enveloped in a radiant cloud of blue electricity, darted across the battlefield with lightning-like speed, collecting every last drop item from her fallen comrades. She whirled around and shouted at Goldrich. "Old man, I'm counting on you now... keep me informed about what's going to happen next. I'll be waiting for you back in town." With that, she propelled herself away.
Melliandra's legs ached as she pushed them to their limits, leaping between transparent platforms. She was almost safe, but the hurricane's fierce winds hurled her back like she was nothing more than a feather.
"Damn, damn, damn!" she swore as she sprinted for her life. "I don't want to die, yet I'm half-dead curious about what will happen next!"
She could see Broken standing tall, undisturbed by the chaos surrounding them. He hadn't moved an inch since they had started fleeing.
With a newfound determination igniting within her, Melliandra sprang forward again, pushing herself even further away from the impending danger.
Goldrich let out a cackle as he surveyed the chaotic scene. "In the end, I ended up here with you, Charmelyn."
"If everything follows the usual rules, I'll earn a new title with enormous rewards just from witnessing an event like this," he chuckled.
He continued, "That young man must have done something extraordinary to awaken such a powerful creature... A level 400, no less! This should be quite entertaining."
"But..." Charmelyn's voice faltered into a hushed whisper. "It's a Mythic-grade level 400 creature could it spell disaster for us all? How can we defeat her? Even our guild members perished easily with just her appearance."
Goldrich clucked his tongue. "Let's just watch the show, then," he said. "These are exclusive front-row seats that can't be bought anywhere else. Khi-khi-khi!"
Charmelyn shook her head slowly. "No, even their lip movements aren't clear from here."
"The spirit seems aware of our presence and is intentionally concealing their discussion. Khi
khi khi..."
"Do you think he is one of those Divine Champions?" she inquired.
"I'm not sure that's a question we can answer because only Broken has the right to reveal that," Goldrich replied thoughtfully. "But, I doubt he's the type to open up to those he doesn't know well. So, it would be wise to respect his decision on this matter."
Charmelyn nodded slowly. "I will try to keep my mouth shut about what I've seen," she said quietly. "As... I'm not sure he would be pleased to know we're still here. Should I leave now? I feel like I should have died with the others."
"Khi khi khi... that's your decision. Explain it to him yourself if you're unsure," Goldrich said
with a smirk.
"Explain it to him?" she repeated, her voice trailing off.
Queen Gaia closed her eyes as if to gather her thoughts, taking a deep breath before she began to speak. When she opened them, her gaze was filled with a profound intensity.
"My mission is to dismantle barriers and challenge the status quo. I am here to restore what should be and annihilate what shouldn't," she declared, her passion growing with each word.
"So, what you're saying is...?"
Gaia leaned forward, placing her fingertips against his cheeks. In a hushed whisper, she replied, "I have come to restore the natural balance of this world by eradicating all living beings that have recklessly disrupted it. Nature will be left to thrive and heal itself, free from
interference."
"So, you are the enemy of the world?"
Gaia shook her head slowly. "Quite the opposite-I am an agent of change, here to set things right," she stated firmly.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
