Chapter 623 Stages of saving the realm.
"That... makes sense, but that's crazy." Blake said, completely shocked by the discovery.
Although everything came from the mother stream, one had to awaken an element to have a true connection with it. This meant that the elements were the connection to the mother stream, thus having all the elements meant becoming one with the Mother-Stream which could equate to having a high chance of controlling it.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are planning on bestowing the inheritance of the other five elements on me?" Blake asked with a look of understanding, and Azkelwart's nod affirmed his belief.
"Doesn't that mean it can also be bestowed on my dad?" Blake asked. " I mean, although it would be a longer process, it would be more beneficial since he is already the All-Father. The connection with the mother stream would increase the chances of success,"
Blake expected a response to these words, but Azkelwart remained silent as he refilled his cup and sipped tea.
"That brings me to the third part," Azkelwar said in response to Blake's question.
"The maximum number of elements one's soul can withstand is three, but somehow you have four," Azkelwart said, which made Blake freeze due to shock. Blake had always believed he wasn't special and anyone owned four elements if given the opportunity, but it turned out he was wrong. Seeing the confusion in Blake's eyes, Azkelwart chuckled as he broke another biscuit in two and fed them to Ebony and Ivory.
He watched the two joyfully and gently feed from his hand. Only when they were done did he turn his attention to Blake,
"Your speciality might come from the fact that you got an inheritance containing two elements even before you awakened your elements. So it affected your body and soul." Azkelwart said with a tinge of uncertainty in his voice. "Or maybe it has to do with fate... or maybe both," He added in a pondering tone.
The fact remained that Blake's condition was something he termed a miracle. This was something he doubted would happen again in the future... that was if there would be any future. "Anyway, you are the only one that can save the realm," Azkelwart said these words in a stern tone.
To this, Azkelwart simply nodded in response. He let go of Ebony and Ivory before moving to the teapot and refilling his cup. His gaze then shifted to Blake's empty cup.
"Refill?" He asked, but Blake shook his head in refusal.
"So what is the next stage?" Blake asked.
"If you return to the main realm, we would have to convince or beat a god into submission for them to grant their inheritances," Azkelwart said, but Blake was taken aback by his words.
"Why do we have to convince them when it involves the safety of the realm?" Blake asked with a mixture of frustration and confusion in his gaze.
"First of all, the other races don't like the humans," Azkelwart responded. "The second reason is that the humans caused our current problem in the first place, so why should they trust another human?" His words left Blake speechless.
"The third reason is that it is only I who knows of the solution since I only discovered it recently" Azkelwart continued, "Finally, not every one of them is actually on the side of the infinite realm. You surely don't expect Valerius to be the only possible traitor,"
His words opened a whole new set of possibilities, that Blake was blind to. Thinking deeply about these words, he realized he had been ignorant of the possibility that Valerius may have other accomplices in high places. Azkelwart sat in silence and drank his tea while observing Blake's constantly changing facial expressions.
He wanted to give Blake enough time to digest the information he just received before he spoke again.
"As for the third stage, you would be doing it at the same time as the second stage," Azkelwart finally spoke after a while.
"What is the third stage?" Blake couldn't help but ask.
"Becoming the All-Father."
