Chapter 1185: Divine Thunder Moon Tyrant Symbols
The one who had spoken was none other than Zera.
The soldiers halted in their tracks, remembering an announcement they had heard before the war began.
"To witness one of the goddess's words come to fulfilment before my eyes in such an
incredible way is something I never thought I'd experience!"
"What are you talking about? The goddess's words have always been fulfilled in extraordinary ways!"
"Hahaha! Arch-Knight Orion truly is a hero! He's something else!"
"Arch-Knight? With power like that, he far surpasses the commanders! He should be ranked much higher!"
As the soldiers cheered vibrantly at the sight of their adversaries being pushed back, Zera, who had spoken earlier, couldn't help but stare forward. Her gaze was filled with shock and disbelief, fixed on Orion hundreds of kilometres away in the distance. She took a deep breath. "How can a mortal wield such incredible power?" Zera muttered to herself, barely audible. Aurora overheard her and explained, "The lightning is his gift."
"Gift?" Zera turned her head, her expression twisting in confusion as she looked at Aurora.
"It seems the goddess didn't tell you everything," Aurora responded, meeting her gaze. "During the Great Migration, when the gods used the stellar gates to bring their children into this universe, humans awakened a myriad of abilities linked to their ancestry, the
Omnithriallains, the strongest race that once existed."
"However, due to Naka's experimentation on the humans here, they've lost the ability to activate their gifts. But those living outside can still awaken them. With Vylkr energy, their gifts develop as they grow stronger. Orion is a four-star warrior-in simpler terms, his power has long surpassed what should be considered within mortal limits."
For Orion, who had reached this realm with raw talent without the Vylkr fusion armlet, there's no comparison, even with divine apostles and demigods, as even they have the assistance of a divine being, one way or another.
Zera nodded in understanding, a thoughtful look in her eyes. She knew the goddesses wouldn't share anything that wasn't beneficial to them with her. Since they had failed to mention this, she realized they must have tried and were unable to undo the damage done to the humans, or they had simply decided it wasn't worth remembering.
Knowing the goddesses, Zera had no doubt it was the former.
"My mother taught him his arts and techniques. As for the artefacts, he gathered them all through his own strength," Aurora added.
Zera nodded, her gaze returning to Orion. "If that's the case, then his achievements as a mortal are incomparable to anyone else," she said.
She hesitated before refocusing on Aurora. "...Can I ask if he's your husband?" she asked hesitantly.
In her opinion, no matter how extraordinary Orion's achievements were, he was still a mortal, and it didn't seem right for a powerful young goddess like Aurora-backed by her mother, the goddess of the Hunting Moon-to have any interest in him.
It would have made more sense if he were a demigod or a newly ascended god. Even if he were an investment for future godhood, it didn't seem worthwhile when she could cultivate divine apostles to suit her needs.
Zera believed Orion was a toy she was playing with.
"He's my husband, the one I've promised to spend my eternity with. So, if you have any foolish thoughts, it would be wise to terminate them immediately," Aurora said, noticing Zera's pensive expression.
Zera gulped and nodded quickly in understanding. "How long have you been together?" she asked, looking at Aurora anxiously.
After hearing Aurora's clarification, Zera cleared her thoughts and was now eager to converse with another divine being, one that wasn't the overly strict goddesses inside her.
"It's been almost a year now. But every second feels like forever," Aurora responded, chuckling lightly as Zera subtly rolled her one good eye.
"We also have a beautiful child," Aurora added, watching Zera's reaction.
Zera froze, her eyes wide and her mouth agape.
It wasn't just Zera who was intrigued by the revelation-the goddesses within her were also
in disbelief. She could feel her soul stirring as the two goddesses urged her to ask more
questions.
"How? Is he the father?" Zera asked.
"Yes. Although I can't reveal the details, he's quite capable, though his mortal limitations restrain him," Aurora replied with a smile.
Seeing the troubled look on Zera's face, she understood that Zera was being pressured by the goddesses, who were also keenly interested in their conversation. It wasn't surprising to her as it would be even more suspicious if they weren't paying attention.
Zera snapped her gaze toward Orion, her eye fixed on him. Realizing Aurora was telling the truth, she couldn't help but wonder if Orion was a reincarnated divine being.
Even the goddesses within her seemed tempted to agree with the thought.
Suddenly, the storm in the sky grew fiercer as countless purplish lightning clouds gathered in the distance.
The lightning domain was already filled with countless thunder and lightning strikes, and it was raining down as if it were alive. With the appearance of the purple thunderstorm, it seemed as though a cataclysm had descended-yet this was merely the power of one mortal
man.
Thick, purplish lightning bolts struck the ground, creating scorched immense pits.
Although they couldn't see the full extent of the damage from the purple clouds, the soldiers realized that the once dire war had now become a one-sided battle.
The relentless downpour of thick purple lightning left Zera, the Knights, and the Arch- Knights on the fortified walls dumbfounded.
'Orion... What kind of mortal are you?' Zera thought, her mind racing with questions, her curiosity growing as she watched him.
Even the two goddesses within her couldn't help but observe with heightened interest. If Orion had only been worth a glance before, he had their full attention now.
...
Within the lightning domain, Valer and the rest of the Stormfall elite group continued to watch the ongoing destruction with fear in their eyes. As someone capable of casting a Vylkr energy-based lightning technique, he understood the harsh requirements and the mental and physical strain he had endured to reach his current abilities.
Thus, he couldn't comprehend how Orion had achieved something on this scale.
From a glance, Orion seemed to be doing it effortlessly, which made it even more terrifying,
as it meant there was no comparison between them.
'Is this the level of power needed to defeat a Harbinger?' Valer couldn't help but shiver at the
thought.
If true, it would mean they were far more powerful than they had initially believed, and their defeat would be inevitable, even if they returned to the outside world. Valer clenched his fists tightly around the reins.
He wondered what it would take for someone to possess such prowess. He briefly considered who would emerge victorious in a fight between the strongest Arch-Knight and Orion before quickly dispelling the foolish thought. Without a doubt, it would be a one-sided victory, even if they all fought against him together.
The entire Stormfall elite group shared his feelings, clenching their fists.
Below, Kasryn observed the catastrophic scene before her, absently standing beside Sky Shattering Empress. Her eyes were filled with countless flashes of bluish and purplish lightning, illuminating the figure seated at the peak of a distant, moving mountain.
Her mind and body were exhausted from trying to comprehend everything that had transpired, and all she could do now was absorb it all in silence.
At the peak of the distant, moving mountain,
Orion cast the Divine Thunder Moon Symbol: Symbol of Destruction. Holding his right hand, he touched his first two fingers together and cast another, the Symbol of Precision.
He had skipped the basic symbols-Symbol of Shock, which released a burst of lightning and thunder to stun enemies; Symbol of Surge, which fired high-voltage lightning bolts at a target; and Symbol of Chain, which created chain lightning capable of hitting multiple enemies.
These were entry-level symbols and unneeded for someone like him with a wide range of
abilities.
The advanced symbol, the Symbol of Destruction, unleashed a powerful purple lightning storm capable of disintegrating enemies and devastating large areas. The Symbol of Precision created a concentrated beam of lightning that could travel vast distances and penetrate an
enemy's defences.
The Symbol of Conduction produced an electric field that enhanced speed and agility-useful when he didn't utilize his lightning form.
Lastly, the Symbol of Tempest summoned a whirlwind of lightning, cutting through and
eliminating enemies.
These were more were more fitting for him.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Suddenly, a spark of purple lightning appeared at the edge of Orion's lightning domain, 100
kilometers in the distance. It condensed into a brilliant purple lighting beam that pierced forward, reaching hundreds of meters into the enemy ranks and striking them. Orion couldn't see what was happening at that distance, but he knew his attacks had dealt a heavy blow to the enemy. He fired three more consecutive strikes before pausing. He retrieved an elixir bottle from his clothing and summoned his crimson greatsword.
