Chapter 381 - The Ark Of Climax Of Bryan's Past

Bryan scoffed as he diverted his attention to his sister, who was still fighting the man. He was beginning to lose ground but Val doesn't look like she was ready to land the finishing blow. She was still too hesitant on attacking him.

Val was scared by she knew she had to protect her brother. Thus, she allowed the spell to fully control her and brought the man down after swinging her scales to his head. This knocked the man out for a while before he stood up and took off, cursing at the family.

With the threat of the man gone, Virgo dissipated as well. Val returned to her normal form and quickly hugged Bryan. But something was off as the sister continued hugging him. He was limp in his sister's arms as she hugged him.

"Bry? What's wrong?" asked Val, pulling away from him.

The kid was dazed as his skin took a different turn in complexion, becoming paler. The child started to pant heavily as if he had trouble breathing. He then collapsed onto his sister's ŀȧp. Val freaked out.

"What's going on?! You were well just now, why did you faint?!" asked the sister ȧss she scooped him up in her arms.

She bolted into his bedroom and placed him down on the bed. She quickly scampered around the house to find some home remedies to ease the child's pain. When that was all done, she slumped down on the chair beside her.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she recalled how her mother first showed signs of being sick. It was almost the same symptoms as her late mother's. She could not bear to go through another bout of hell. Especially not with her baby brother the one being sick.

"Don't worry, you don't have your mother's illness. You just happened to use your powers all at one go and though it should be fine for a Mage, you were still having a human child's physical body. Thus, it might have some side-effects like fatigue," explained the voice.

"If I did, I don't think I would standing here talking to you anymore."

As a tear rolled down her cheeks, it dropped onto the child's chubby cheeks, waking him up. He then blinked a few times and started crying as well. Soon, the two siblings were crying out loud.

"I'm sowwy! I love you, Sister!" cried little Bryan, burying his face into his sister's ċhėst.

"I was so worried that you were going to get hurt!" cried the sister as she saw that Bryan's sin color was back to normal.

"Your family embraced the fact that you had powers. But to protect you, they did not allow you to use it outside of the house. However, when you were drawing in the backyard, the people of the guy earlier showed up. You've got no one but yourself."

"What you will be witnessing is the most you've ever used of your Magecraft back then. But, it came with a price."

The area shows Bryan once more, but slightly older as he continued drawing more of the stars. This time, he had more constellations than the main 12. And as the mob surrounded him, he looked at them with no emotion whatsoever.

"Looks like you are alone. You don't have your sister around to protect you now. Well, one kid should be able to get us enough to fund our project. Let's get him," mumbled a guy that reached out his hand.

Against a group of ȧduŀt men, Bryan would have no chance of winning against them. But he wasn't a normal human anymore. The kid, now aware of his powers, tumbled out of harm's way and stood up to face his enemies.

"Damned brat. You are a slippery one, aren't ya?!" shouted another guy, sprinting to get to him.

Bryan dashed away and got hold of a stone. He then threw it at the man that was chasing him. The man caught it but the rock exploded in his hand, severing it completely. The man screamed and ordered for the rest to attack.

"Water carrier of the gods, symbol of Ganymede..." murmured Bryan, squeezing his eyes shut.

"Even if the stars are not seen by you, they are still there. Your power lies within the skies, the stars that draw pictures across the Universe. Whether it is night or not, you will still harness the power of our Lost Element, the Element Of The Stars!" commandeered a voice, that was not from earlier.

It sounded like Z's voice, someone with experience and wisdom.. And the knowledge of the Celestial Magecraft.
