Chapter 138: The Transcendent Night Comes, and the World Shakes By It!

As the evening sun slowly set, the world was enveloped in the dark night sky, illuminated by countless stars.This night felt distinctly different, with a cool and soothing atmosphere.

Additionally, the stars above seemed more numerous and brighter than usual, a change noticed by most living things in the world.

Yet, amid these peculiarities, one phenomenon stood out—the unusual alignment and proximity of the moons Sylvia and Miranda in the sky.

The brightly lit moon Sylvia, which usually appeared in the east, and the slightly darker moon Miranda, typically seen in the west, rose simultaneously, perfectly aligned in the northern sky.

This extremely rare and seemingly impossible phenomenon horrified and frightened everyone who witnessed it, especially in the Holy Imperial Capital of Elysium, Astralyn, the central power of mankind, alongside the Holy Orthodox Capital, Eldoria.

The Holy Imperial Capital of Elysium, Astralyn, typically bustling with merchants and activity during the late afternoon and early evening, was eerily quiet this time.

Everyone in the capital, whether outside or inside, was raising their heads simultaneously to look at the two moons, Sylvia and Miranda, aligned in the northern sky.

As they watched this phenomenon, their faces displayed a mix of bewilderment, amazement, curiosity, and fear.

"What's going on? Why are two moons, Sylvia and Miranda, rising simultaneously and in an aligned position like this?"

"What is this phenomenon? What's really happening?"

"How can the two moons be in such perfect alignment?"

"Is this a sign of an impending disaster?"

In the bustling central square of Astralyn Capital's trade center, where activity reached its peak, panic erupted at the sight of two moons unusually close and perfectly aligned—a phenomenon deemed impossible.

Some looked anxious and exchanged worried whispers, trying to comprehend the unprecedented occurrence.

The sight of two moons, typically distant from each other in the night sky, now unusually close and rising simultaneously in the northern sky, certainly filled them with fear and astonishment.

Just as confusion and astonishment gripped them all amidst the strange event unfolding, a loud exclamation from a man pierced through the crowd.

"Two moons aligned closely!? Isn't that a phenomenon that occurs once in a thousand years?!" The exclamation reverberated, sending shockwaves through the surroundings.

"Once every thousand years?" Several nearby individuals inquired with curiosity.

"Yes! This phenomenon is exceedingly rare, occurring only once every millennium," the man replied solemnly, his expression grave as he continued, "It's known as the Night of the Birth of the Three Heroes of Mankind and the descent of the Three Holy Weapons into the world!"

Upon hearing his words, excitement surged through the entire crowd, swiftly infecting others in the square and ultimately unraveling the mystery of the current events.

A night that occurred only once every thousand years, long forgotten by many, suddenly became the hottest topic of discussion throughout the entire capital that night.

...

While excitement surged through Astralyn Capital and other places, in the garden behind the Holy Orthodox Hall, Arshley, clad in a light green nightgown that accentuated her perfect curves, sat quietly on a garden bench.

Her extraordinarily beautiful, goddess-like face tilted upwards, gazing at the two moons, Sylvia and Miranda, which were closely aligned in the sky.

In her sky-blue eyes, a few ripples of emotion appeared as she watched this extremely rare phenomenon.

'The Transcendent Night...' she muttered to herself, her eyes slowly narrowing and her palms clenching into tight fists.

Thanks to the horoscope from Louis, the Third Guardian of Holy Orthodoxy, she had known well in advance about the arrival of this Transcendent Night.

Supposedly, with the arrival of this special night, she should have been brimming with excitement because the heroes would receive a surge of power—the Transcendent.

As someone she loved dearly, Leon, the sword hero, should have received this blessing, bringing Arshley joy as she witnessed her lover grow stronger.

However, the happiness that should have graced her beautiful and charming face was replaced by an expression of indifference.

With Leon's whereabouts and safety currently unknown, finding happiness seemed impossible for her.

As Arshley turned her gaze away from the two moons aligned above the sky, she shifted her attention to a small box on her lap and opened it.

Inside lay a half-face mask, the sight of which caused her previously indifferent expression to slowly melt away.

"I will always await your return, brother..."

...

Three kilometers from the town of Arthamonth, at the border between the desert and the fertile land, a man and a woman stood side by side.

The man possessed a stocky, muscular frame and towering height, with fiery red hair and a face that, though not conventionally handsome, exuded a domineering presence.

Beside him stood a beautiful woman with a graceful yet cold expression, exuding a tense aura that seemed to warn others to keep their distance.

The two were none other than Valen and Luna, who were currently gazing at the two closely aligned moons in the sky.

"Do you feel something inside you?" Luna asked nonchalantly, turning her gaze toward Valen.

Valen nodded slightly, a faint smile gracing his lips as he responded, "Yes, I sense a tumultuous surge of power within me, poised to erupt at any moment. It's both exhilarating and gives me goosebumps."

Turning his gaze to Luna, Valen folded his burly arms and asked curiously, "Do you feel the same way?"

Luna nodded and took a small breath, her gaze returning to the two moons in the sky as she replied, "Yes, I feel it too. I feel as though the holy power within me is dancing in tandem with this phenomenon."

"Perhaps the so-called 'transcendent' power surge mentioned in ancient records and history is true, and this night is specially prepared for us, the heroes."

Although the Transcendent Night was well documented in records left by their predecessors, experiencing it firsthand was very different.

Luna was certain that if she didn't restrain her holy power, it would erupt with terrifying, unprecedented force.

Thus, behind her indifferent expression, she was struggling to calm the turbulence of her holy power, which was gradually growing stronger.

"In that case, let's not delay any longer. We must seize the opportunity tonight and elevate our power to unprecedented heights!" Valen's smile widened as he exclaimed in a nonchalant tone.

Being someone deeply enamored with battle and strength, the phenomenon of the transcendent night held immense value for him.

Coincidentally, he had hit a bottleneck in absorbing the legacies of past heroes, resulting in no noticeable improvement in his strength over the past few days.

Thankfully, this once-in-a-millennium night had arrived, undoubtedly a boon for him.

Upon hearing Valen's words, Luna nodded in agreement, her own eagerness to enhance her strength for tomorrow's battle against the demon army and potential encounter with the Demon Emperor evident.

With swiftness, Luna and Valen assumed a cross-legged position, closing their eyes and pressing their palms together as if descending into meditation.

*Buzz!*

Suddenly, behind them, blue and red lights materialized, casting a brilliant glow that illuminated their surroundings before fading away to reveal two of the world's most renowned and formidable weapons—the Celestial Frost Holy Bow and the Soaring Dragon Holy Spear—hovering behind them.

*Whoosh!*

Shortly after the appearance of the two holy weapons, star-shaped marks manifested on Luna and Valen's foreheads.

Initially faint, the marks soon emitted a brilliant white light that instantly illuminated their surroundings, causing the space around them to warp and distort as if on the verge of shattering.

*Boom!*

Instantaneously, white holy power surged forth from Luna and Valen's bodies like an exploding bomb.

The exploding holy power instantly enveloped them, swirling and spiraling around before erupting once more and piercing into the sky, radiating light that illuminated the entire night sky within a 100-kilometer radius!

This abrupt phenomenon plunged the town of Arthamonth and its surrounding areas into immediate chaos... Sёarch* The NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Meanwhile, on the balcony of his room, Leon lounged leisurely with a cup of coffee in hand.

His gaze drifted upward to the sky, where the two moons, Sylvia and Miranda, hung close together in alignment, prompting a slight smile to grace Leon's lips.

'Finally, this night has arrived...' Leon muttered to himself, excitement gleaming in his golden pupils.

Despite his power being sealed by the devouring poison within his body, he sensed a subtle fluctuation emanating from within, filling him with immense joy.

It was the familiar flow of his hero's holy power—a sensation he hadn't experienced in a long time.

"The Transcendent Night truly lives up to its reputation!" Leon remarked, setting down his coffee cup on the table with a chuckle.

With the aid of the transcendent night and the antidote for the devouring poison, he sensed his path to recovery drawing near.

He, the world's most handsome sword hero, would soon reclaim his former glory and, naturally, exact vengeance upon Velix and his cohorts!

Taking a deep breath, Leon slowly rose to his feet, his gaze still fixed on the two moons above.

'Tonight is the night of my awakening,' he whispered to himself with determination.

As Leon turned around, he was instantly taken aback by Liliana's sudden presence near the balcony door, her figure adorned in a stunning red gown that accentuated her curvaceous body and alluring silhouette.

The sight momentarily left Leon in a daze, his thoughts drifting away for a while.

"Do you find me beautiful in this gown?" Liliana asked in a charming tone, instantly bringing Leon back to his senses and eliciting a faint smile from him.

Observing her once more from head to toe, Leon rubbed his chin thoughtfully, nodding appreciatively before replying, "Of course, you're stunning and charming. Whatever you wear, you're absolutely perfect."

Upon hearing Leon's praise, a beautiful smile graced Liliana's lips, adding to her allure.

"By the way, are you ready?" Liliana inquired, glancing up at the two moons in the sky.

"Absolutely! I'm ready!" Leon responded eagerly and emphatically!

Liliana turned her gaze back toward Leon and nodded slightly.

"Then, let's go."
