He had already sent an explanation to his wives about the sudden disturbance when the divine light first erged, so they were only coming out of curiosity to witness the situation firsthand.
Unexpectedly, Maeve began to rise from the bed, her body suspended in the air.
Orion gently wrapped her in his divine power for protection and carried her to the manor's roof. At that mont, the light radiating from Maeve exploded in a dazzling display and shot skyward like a pillar, curving midway and shooting towards the direction of the forr Village Chief's compound.
........
The sundial began to shine with a brilliant hue, alerting the nearby guards tasked with watching over it.
"Quick, inform the key leaders and the forr Village Chief, the Chieftess!" the captain of the warriors ordered.
The remaining warriors nodded and took to the sky to deliver the ssage.
Within minutes, Brane, Zara, Zogar, and Seth arrived at the compound. After being briefed on the situation, they turned their attention to the sundial with curious gazes.
"Has anyone inford the Supre Leader about this?" Brane asked.
"Yes, but we've received word that the Supre Leader is currently occupied within his manor. We shouldn't worry, though; the sundial is likely reacting to the birth of a new divine being," the commander responded, though his tone wavered.
Brane and the others turned to him, their eyes widening in surprise and disbelief.
"Are you certain?" Zogar asked, narrowing his gaze at the captain.
"Yes, I am. If you wish, I can summon the warrior who brought the information so you can confirm it yourselves," the captain replied, bowing respectfully. His expression was filled with fear and disbelief, as though he was still processing what he had said.
He gestured for the warrior to step forward and explain.
"No need, I believe you," Zogar said, waving his hand at the warrior to return to his position.
The two warriors quickly stood and positioned themselves behind their leaders.
Suddenly, loud laughter echoed through the atmosphere.
"HAHAHAHA!!" Brane laughed before turning to Zogar and the others. "Since the Supre Leader is overseeing the birth of a new divine being, why don't we go and see who it is!" he exclaid, his tone and expression brimming with excitent.
Just a few days ago, the Supre Leader had ascended to divinity, and Paradise had gained several new divine beings. This included the ergence of a formidable new Mysteries, handled by their predecessors—whom they once thought were dead.
Several hours later, Paradise was on the verge of welcoming another divine being ascending within its territory. Doesn't that an his chances of ascending to divinity were increasing by the second?
How could he resist witnessing such a grand sight?
Nonetheless, he was suspicious about who was ascending, as he wasn't aware of anyone in Paradise who had t the divinity requirents. Still, he wasn't concerned; he would find out once he arrived.
"Let's go; I also want to see who is ascending," Zara said, her tone and expression tinged with excitent and suspicion.
Seth and Zogar nodded in agreent. However, just as they were about to take flight, a pillar of light reaching the heavens appeared in the distance.
Surprisingly, it was headed in their direction. In an instant, the domineering divine light descended upon the sundial, illuminating the entire Village and even the distant cities.
The glowing sundial transford into a radiant twelve-step staircase, bathed in milky white and inky black flas. As if reacting to the vibrant pillar of light, it then transford into a beam of light and shot toward the direction from which the pillar had erged.
They exchanged hesitant glances before nodding firmly. They took to the sky, heading toward the soaring twelve-step staircase, which was leading them in the direction of Orion's manor.
....
At Orion's Manor,
Orion felt an itch on his arm and imdiately summoned the crimson greatsword. In a flicker of light, the greatsword and Aerialia appeared beside him.
After their intimate session, while he had been tending to Aurora, Orion summoned Aerialia and inford her of everything that had transpired. She knew the plot he intended to carry out once he returned ho.
"So it's really true! Your sen can open the path and grant divinity to a mortal… This shouldn't even be possible," Aerialia said, shaking her head as a tired sigh escaped her lips.
Despite having grown numb to the absurdities that occurred daily in Paradise, she had been shocked and in disbelief when told about this theory regarding Orion's sen, which had been confird by Ilse. She had every reason to feel this way because only formidable divine beings who had mastered the law of fertility to the extre could produce such effects.
Yet, Orion, who had only recently ascended to the realm of demigodhood, was also capable of such feats with his sen.
Wasn't this defying the very logic of the divine?
And with Orion's enormous household, didn't that an Paradise was about to gain several new goddesses or those whose path to divinity was opened, allowing them to ascend on their own through the new Mysteries? He had previously been mass-producing mortals capable of utilizing Vylkr energy and was now mass-producing divine beings.
Nonetheless, Aerialia was uncertain about their happening easily, as there was a chance the Divine Mysteries could interfere with the ascension of a new divine being within Paradise.
After all, it transford their forr entire territory into sothing terrifying after she severed their connection and ford a new one with the new Mysteries. As these thoughts rushed through her mind, Aerialia couldn't help but admit that the descendants of the Omnithraillians were truly formidable and logic-defying.
Orion didn't respond to her words. Though he was the catalyst for such an incredible event, even if he hadn't ascended to divinity in such a way, he had gotten the help of White Fla's ember to do so, which was still an incredible experience, one unique to him.
Regardless, Orion admitted that either would undoubtedly astound other divine beings who had toiled and worked hard to reach their current status.
Suddenly, the space outside the barrier ripped open, and a figure stepped through. It was Ilse. Following behind her was Aurora.
Orion opened the barrier to allow them in.
Ilse and Aurora arrived at their side.
After nodding at Aerialia, Ilse focused on Orion and then on the pixie bathed in divine light, with a pillar of light rising to the sky.
"You impregnated her, right?" She asked, seeking confirmation.
Orion responded with a nod.
Ilse and Aerialia's eyes t montarily, both sighing as though advising the other that it was best not to think about it!
Suddenly, a brilliant light manifested in the distance and, in an instant, appeared before them, transforming into the twelve-step stairs.
At that mont, General Reynold and Oberon appeared before them. They swept their gazes over Maeve, who was bathed in the radiant pillar of divine light and was now drawn toward the twelve-step stairs, before focusing on the group.
"How did this happen?" General Reynold asked, his gaze fixed on Orion.
Oberon nodded at the goddesses present before focusing on Orion, awaiting his response.
Orion swiftly explained everything that had transpired.
Their expressions twisted into various emotions as they digested the information. They nodded in understanding and focused on Maeve as the beam of light rged with the stairs. The vibrance of the divine light intensified, becoming too much for Orion to handle alone.
"I will handle it," General Reynold said, swiftly creating a barrier that shielded the dazzling, blinding light.
Orion retracted his divine power.
General Reynold suddenly frowned, sensing soone entering through his barrier. His strength was bolstered by the new Mysteries, and with the remnants of the Divine Mysteries still within him, he was confident in the integrity of his barrier. His expression imdiately relaxed when he sensed it was the Will of the new Mysteries and Grace, Orion's daughter.
The two girls quickly arrived before them.
Grace jumped into Orion's arms while the Will of the New Mysteries maintained her distance.
"Daddy, what's going on? We were looking around the new settlents in the Golden Palace, and suddenly, Sylvalis urged us to return here. I had no choice but to follow her," Grace said, her tone curious as her large eyes swept over everyone present before darting toward the radiant Maeve and Orion.
"Sylvalis?" Orion asked, his expression confused as he glanced at the Will of the new Mysteries, still maintaining her cautious distance.
Aurora and Aerialia looked at the Will of the new Mysteries curiously. They were interested in the capabilities of the Will of the new Mysteries, wondering if they were similar to or differed from those of the Divine Mysteries.
"Yes. I was tired of not knowing how to address her, so I convinced her to devise a na she could use. Mother also helped, so right now, her na is Sylvalis," Grace responded with a nod.
Orion nodded in understanding.
