[Vol.4] Quest 366- Westward Cloud, Epilogue- NascentFrom his spring-licked feet, green cloud-shaped flowers grew out.
"It is an honor to et you, god of Elysia!! For your actions when you were a mortal, you were given your own authorities!!" tis kept going. "For your deeds in the Kaios Desert, Orario, Yamato, and even Heaven itself! The Authorities of War, Combat, Spirits, Thunder, Lightning, Magic, Teaching, Wealth, Armor, Music, Wrath, Madness, Will, Humanity, Regeneration, Masks, Language, Hope, Liberation, and Boundaries are yours!"
Elysium then walked up to those from the Kaios Desert.
A line drew across the lower part of its face as if the entity had painted itself a mouth with an ink brush. Their face looked more humanoid.
"No amount of sorry can wash away your anger. Know that his actions stayed with him till the very end." Elysium spoke in a solemn tone of voice that sounded like it had been stitched together to make a harmonious male tone of voice.
"!?" Their eyes widen at his voice.
'That's not my voice, it's a little more...' Elysium worked on his voice.
It left a feeling of sha in them to have heard this being speak such words.
"As my first act, I bestow upon you innocent children who evacuated to Varga." Their voice sounded closer to Cirrus's. "I gift you knowledge." They reached out their hand, or what seed to be a hand.
It was a blob of energy and power. As it stretched towards the Israfan protestors, Elysium’s arm seed to go through millions of years of evolution to form slender, delicate fingers.
They felt deeply honored that they would undergo such a length for them.
Several more ford like hydras, touching their foreheads with a light touch and a glow, and knowledge ca to them like a warm breeze in sumr.
"!!!" They reached enlightennt; they knew what to do.
"Use this and rebuild your holand better, kinder, and more harmoniously."
They all shed tears at the god’s gift of knowledge.
"T-thank you!! Oh great and rciful Elysium!!"
They all got on their knees and prayed before him.
"I do not wish for prayer, nor do I seek to be prayed to. That is all. Make sure your people know this."
Elysium walked past them, covering them in his veil, and they vanished.
Fwhish~
It impressed several of the gods how easily he teleported them away with such grace and style.
tis then kept going.
"For your actions in creating a Divine Weapon and several other weapons, along with the creation of a city, the Authority of Blacksmithing, talworking, tallurgy, Crafting, Weapons, and Kingdoms are yours."
He made it to the base of his mortal tomb and walked up its steps.
"For your actions and service under the gods Ouranos, Astraea, and Artemis, the Authority of the Skies, Heaven, Justice, Judgent, Change, Stars, Hunting, Life, Fertility, Marriage, and Shadows are yours. With the mixture of another deity, Kali, whose ichor has slowly gotten mixed in. You were even granted the authority of Destruction and Ti."
tis did not ntion Nyx, as that was a secret best kept between tis, Nyx, and Elysium.
"My tattoo did that!?!?" Kali said, greatly surprised.
"It was made with your ichor, Lady Kali." Said Bache.
"I didn't think it would do that!? It was just a way to confirm it was him!"
He made it up and walked past tis.
"You know what to do next," Elysium said, glancing at tis.
tis only smirked.
"And for your actions, the goddess of the night, Nyx, has given a portion of her ichor to grant you the Authority of Night. Along with it, Khaos gifted you the authority of The Dead, along with the grand authority of Creation—the authority to signify that you are the ruler of this world! And one last authority that is yours solely, the authority Nascent."
Elysium opened the tomb to his forr mortal self and entered it. The doors slamd behind him.
Many were shocked to hear that they were granted the ultimate and most honored authority a god could have.
"Fels," They said, speaking through the tomb.
"!!" Fels shook upon hearing his voice. "C-Cirrus… Is that truly you?"
"…Fels. Tell . Do you wish for your body back?"
"I… No." They ca to an answer quickly. "This is who I am now. Thank you for the offer, my son."
Elysium cracked a smile.
"Then et
back at the Moonlight Tower. I will explain so stuff there and the rest at the Denatus."
"V-very well. I am happy you are back, my son!"
Fels then left, hiding their existence from the massive crowd.
Elysium opened the casket to see his mortal body.
"Ti to get to work again. Hah. I had my fun, didn’t I, Proanthos?"
The fla and blue lines quickly faded, and from the tomb, Elysium ca out with his mortal body.
Tap~
Tap~
His visage overlays with his funeral attire.
A veil-like mantle of the night was over his lavish black, white, and gold attire, designed by two goddesses. On his right breast pocket was a pair of golden lapel antlers.
He was still ablaze with a blue fla.
"Ah~ still not ready." He then falls to his knees with his head hanging low.
"Goddess of Justice, Astraea!! God of the Sky, Ouranos!! Co forth and give your child your blood one last ti!!" tis shouted.
Whoosh~
With a gentle breeze, Ouranos appeared next to Elysium. Astraea did the sa, appearing right next to him in a brief flash of feathers.
Flash-Flutter!
They both cut their index fingers on his antlers and dropped them on his back without a second thought. The second those droplets of blood landed on his back, everyone could feel it.
"!?!?"
Everyone could feel a massive influx of energy and power. The surrounding space began to warp and vibrate.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Cirrus’ body roared to life.
Cirrus's status appeared and was just as quickly shattered. The stars over Orario shine twice as bright. The planet itself:
■■■■■!!■■■■■!!■■■■■!!■■■■■!!■■■■■!!
The planet cried out in a song like a massive roar of thunder—a song of paradise.
■■■■■!!■■■■■!!
Beautiful in its majesty before it dies down.
"!?" Artemis felt her connection with Cirrus's return and was just as quickly cut off. "N-no way…" She said this as she watched his body sync with Elysium.
Cirrus' status broke as Elysium’s visage and Cirrus’ body began to slowly beco one. They changed to adapt to the body, and within a blue flash, he was whole.
FLASH!
A god in human flesh.
Fwhoosh~
"Fuu~~" Elysium breathed out as his hair turned white and grew out to reach down to his knees, with a walnut brown color at the ends. Their appearance changed to fit Elysium’s liking. Golden antlers sprung from his head in the shape of a crown, with three indigo star-like gems embedded into them and weight scales hanging off his horns. "These are heavy." He swiped his hand through the air, and his crown of antlers disappeared.
