Chapter 1002 Chapter 1002: Link to angels
A woman stepped out of the carriage, covered in robes that appeared to be made from starlight itself.
She was also quite huge compared to Karyk, but when compared with the men that were clearing the trees, she was slightly shorter.
Although she had a slender figure, the Titans around her appeared to be scared of her. Karyk wasn't certain if it was because of her position or if she was actually stronger than then.
Her face was hidden behind a delicate veil, only allowing glimpses of glowing eyes that were a lighter shade of red. Just her single pupil alone was as tall as Karyk's entire height.
Karyk watched intently from his hiding spot. Despite the immense distance, he could sense the raw energy emanating from the figure.
It was a power that dwarfed even that of the Titans. He could not help but feel a slight trace of an Angel's power from that woman, but he was sure that she was not one herself.
It was similar to the Elzeirans who had received the blessing of an angel. With that, Karyk had a feeling that the woman was certainly related to an angel, and maybe even a threat to him.
The figure raised a slender hand, and the Titans ceased their activities, bowing their heads in reverence. The woman began to speak in a language that Karyk couldn't comprehend.
It was as if she was speaking some ancient language which occasionally sounded like chanting of a spell.
As the figure continued to speak, the Titans responded in unison. It was clear that they were receiving instructions, though Karyk had no idea what those might be. Suddenly, the figure paused and turned their head slightly, as if sensing something amiss. Karyk held his breath, hiding himself in the tree's shadow.
After a few tense moments, the figure seemed to dismiss whatever had caught their attention and returned to their conversation with the Titans.
As the sun began to set, the other Titans resumed their tasks. They were carrying a giant serpent that Karyk had seen coiled around the mountain before.
After the titans left, the barrier started closing and repairing itself. However, before it could close completely, Karyk also jumped out.
The only problem was that there were no trees for him to hide behind now. He was completely revealed in the plains.
Fortunately, the titans that were escorting the carriage did not look behind. They didn't even consider the possibility of being followed.
Karyk wondered if he should still continue following them now that he was already out of the forest. The closer he went to them, the riskier it became.
As they were connected to the Angels, he felt that there was no other choice. He made up his mind to follow after them.
There was no point in maintaining distance as there were no trees to hide behind. He could only stick out more if he kept the distance.
He straight flew towards the Titans. Once he reached the carriage, he went under the carriage, and found a place to sit during the journey. Finally, he didn't have to keep chasing them.
To keep an eye on his surroundings, he sent a few shadows that hid in the titan's shadows and constantly let him see the surroundings.
One more month passed like this, and the carriage wasn't stopped even once during
this time.
It was the beginning of the second month when Karyk finally saw a change in scenery. In the distance, he saw walls that were so tall that they looked like they were going straight to heaven.
Even for the titans, it was impossible to climb over the walls.
'Is this their home?' Karyk thought.
