Chapter 2181 Khaos Hub

Chapter 2181 Khaos Hub

With the Khaos guardian assisting their training, Emery can see significant qualitative changes in the acolytes' strength, nearly doubling its previous speed. However, Emery observed that thick Khaos energy started to form a dense mist around their spirit cores. If the mist grew any thicker, it could be harmful, especially for King Rig and Ha Ron, who were already showing signs of discomfort. Dillion, being at the peak of rank 9, appeared able to endure it longer, but it was Shinta who seemed surprisingly unaffected.

"I wonder if its genetic or just affecting all half blood generally."

Emery pondered this development, aware of the potential risks involved. "Alright, it's enough for today," Emery declared, bringing their training session to a halt. The acolytes, visibly exhausted yet stronger, complied without hesitation.

Emery then made a critical decision. He would grant all four of them as Khaos seeds. This process would harness the Khaos energy within them, giving them greater control over their newfound powers.

<Are you sure?> asked Chututlu, his deep, resonant voice echoing in Emery's mind.

"Yes, do it," Emery responded without hesitation.

Being the Khaos Champion with the support of two guardians, Emery had the capability to mark up to a dozen Khaos seeds. Without hesitation, he decided to bestow this limited power upon the young acolytes, recognizing their potential and the necessity for their growth.

Chututlu's energy surged, intertwining with Emery's own power. The Khaos guardian extended its tentacle, touching each of the acolytes on their foreheads. As it did so, a mark appeared on each of them, glowing faintly with a deep, pulsating light. Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

All four acolytes were initially shocked as they suddenly sensed a significant boost to their strength. This new power allowed them to call upon the energy of Khaos at will, as well as create their own personal spaces and waypoints. They could feel the changes within themselves—a newfound control and depth of energy that had not been there before.

Emery observed their reactions, noting how their auras had grown more potent and vibrant.

He then began to channel his power toward his surroundings, and the chamber they stood in started to shake in response. The walls seemed to pulse with life as the space slowly enlarged, expanding to accommodate the growing power within. Multiple small doors began to materialize along the chamber's periphery, each one glowing faintly with magical energy.

Two figures emerged from the newly formed doors: a male and female with slender bodies and dark blue skin. These hybrid half moon magus, with an aura stronger than most, approached Emery and greeted him with deep respect.

"We came to greet Master," they said in unison.

These were the Talami twins, Yama and Yami; both of them were Khaos seeds who had proven themselves invaluable as Emery's eyes and ears, diligently guarding the earth from their post at the Moon Base. From another door emerged another Khaos seed: a woman in dark clothing, this oen was Yuria, Lord Izta youngest widow; next came a young man with dark hair. He radiated a friendly aura as he spoke casually to Emery, "This... is the new hub?"

"Yes," Emery confirmed.

Emery introduced the young man as Chumo, a close friend and brother from Earth. Chumo was also a half-moon magus. He seemed particularly interested in observing the four youths who had just been marked as Khaos seeds, but Emery held off on explaining, waiting for one more person.

The silence that followed was heavy.

During their time together, Shinta had learned about the complex relationship between her father and mother, but she had never seen this side of him. It felt as though her image of Emery, the perfect father, was starting to crumble.

"Are there more?" Shinta asked, her tone laced with a mix of curiosity and disappointment.

"No... and its really not as you think..."

"Really? what do I think?"

"...."

Emery, tried his best to explain, but as the conversation seems to turn even more complicated, he decided to distract her with the gift he had prepared. He showed her the beautiful necklace artifact with purple jewels.

Shinta looked at him with disbelief. "Father... Seriously... Are you trying to bribe my feelings with a gift?"

Emery smiled warmly as he presented the gift, explaining its significance. The [Soul Storing Crystal], a high-grade magic artifact once owned by Mo Yan, could store a portion of someone's soul. With his current soul strength, Emery could imbue it with 10% of his consciousness, ready to assist Shinta in times of need.

As Shinta listened, her initial curiosity turned to concern.

"Does this mean you would know everything I say and do? .... Erm... father... This is a breach of privacy..."

Emery shook his head reassuringly and explained that the crystal only activates when it senses danger or when she channel her spirit energy into it. Shinta processed his words, sensed his sincerity and understood the genuine intention behind the gift.

"Alright then," she finally said, her voice soft but resolved. This was the first personal gift Emery had ever given as a father, and seeing Shinta wear the artifact filled him with happiness.

"Thank you father, but ...this is not over.... I need to talk to master Klea about this..."

"...."

Emery watched as she left, and wasted no time testing the crystal's capabilities. With a focused mind, he could feel a subtle link forming between them. The stone's power, combined with the Khaos waypoints, allowed Emery to sense her presence and easily locate her. It also granted him the ability to teleport to her quickly in times of danger. With plans to establish a Khaos gate in the academy hall, Emery could extend his protective range to cover the entire academy area.
