Chapter 707 Gorm, McEnda IV, Artemisia [Easter Egg]

Demon General Jack McEnda IV.

That was the name of the most powerful Demon General of Gozon, under the rule of Demon King Ginaroad.

He was a Level 1000 ArchDemon who was a tiny little bit away from exuviating and surpassing Transcendence.

When he stepped into Aidos 1000 years ago, havoc followed.

50% of the Aidosian Transcendents who died in the war were all killed by this one man. He alone killed nearly 500 Transcendents.

Let's not talk about how many thousand Sovereigns and Legendries perished to his powers of darkness.

Eventually, 'Dragon Lord' Gorm Saenni had no choice but to step up and confront McEnda IV as the man's actions had diminished the Aidosians' morale and forces.

McEnda IV also had similar thoughts towards Gorm, as the Dragon Lord had left a trail of Peak Rank Demon Corpses wherever he went.

At this point in time in the War, the Seven Heroes had succumbed to their 'Curse' and had lost their Transcendent Powers, so McEnda IV did not see them as much of a threat unless they were all together.

His focus was on Gorm, and the two met in a battle that decimated half of the then Delta Continent, which was a lot considering the Continent was over 200 million square kilometres in area.

McEnda IV's power that plunged the Delta Continent into eternal night was part of the reason the continent was renamed the 'Dark Continent'.

Their battle had even sunk a quarter of the continent below the ocean.

Of what was left, half of that was completely devastated, with wounds that the planet needed decades to heal from.

Not wounds in the figurative sense, but LITERAL wounds. The Planet itself had bled due to the havoc their battle caused.

Thinking of this, Evan realised just how much more powerful Peak Transcendents were.

In the end, both McEnda IV and Gorm dealt the final blows to each other.

At first, it appeared Gorm was victorious, but it didn't take ten seconds for Gorm to succumb to his injuries caused by McEnda's corrosive darkness and follow the demon in death.

This was one of the Greatest Losses of Aidos during that war, and consequently the root of the belief that Artemisia had forsaken Aidos.

Throughout that battle, thousands of priests, Saints and Saintesses, all prayed to the gods for blessings to aid Gorm in battle and all the gods answered.

All except the Chief goddess Artemisia.

This was where that belief found its root.

However, those who proclaimed this faced severe oppression and 99% of them were silenced through various means.

Powerful Transcendents like the then Pope of the Holy Empire, the Emperors of the Great Empires and even the Barbarian King Morass took action to suppress this.

Considering the god Morass worshipped was not Artemisa, but Canis, the god of War, it was strange that the man took action on behalf of Artemisia's faith.

But looking at it from a strategic standpoint, his actions were rational as such belief would have killed Aidos' already low morale.

The True reason for this, however, was because of what happened on the battlefield that day.

The Seven Heroes, Barbarian King Morass, the Holy Emperor and many other powerful Transcendents of that time knew that Artemisia had not forsaken Aidos.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

After all, from the first second of that battle to the second Gorm dropped dead, Artemisia was present.

Not an avatar, but her true body.

However, Artemisia could not lift a finger. The Restrictions on her prevented her from doing anything.

When Altrishia met Artemisia while she was constructing the Tower of Trials' Entrance, Artemisia stated that Altrishia had no idea about their circumstances.

Hers, Gorm's, and McEnda IV's.

This was true, as Altrishia was too weak to be near the battlefield a that time.

It depicted a battle between two beings, fought atop Aidos. As they walked down the hallway, they followed the story.

The two beings fought, and then they were ambushed by over a hundred others and killed, their blood flowing across the stars.

"I wonder what this battle was about?"

Answering Evan's question in place of Artemisia: this was the reason why a Prime World like Aidos, had just 3 Continents currently.

They walked forward for a bit and eventually left the Museum Area and entered another massive hall. The floor of this chamber was dominated by a gigantic mana circle, making it clear at a glance that it was no ordinary place.

Heather's ring was silent, but Evan knew it wasn't going to be the case for long.

"The magic power concentration here is so dense..."

The Princess's face contorted as she roused her magic power to resist the pressure before she was finally able to move.

It gave her the same feeling of the gravitational force that dragged them inside here.

'Is this the source?'

Just as she thought that, she saw Evan walk towards the centre of the Magic Circle without bothering to check around for danger.

"Evan?! What are you doing? We don't know what this Magic circle is for!"

"Don't worry, it's harmless."

'It's what I came here for, after all.'

Evan kept the other thought to himself as he stood in the centre of the magic circle and turned to face Heather before asking.

"Heather."

"What is it?"

The Princess was walking towards the magic circle to join up with Evan when the boy suddenly asked her a strange question.

"The Ancient Hero who created this place. His daughter married a certain man from a certain Great Noble Family on the Alpha continent.

Would you take a guess as to what his last name was?"

"Just say it already."

Evan smiled wryly and waited for the instant Heather's foot stepped into the Magic Circle before replying.

"It was Wilson."

"...what?"

Heather stepped into the magic circle, and immediately the ring on her hand began to shine once more. The ambient magic power stirred and began swirling around the magic circle while she looked at Evan with surprise.

'Is he saying that the Imperial Family has the blood of an ancient Hero? Or rather how does he know this in the first place? Because he's the Leader of the New Heroes? No, that doesn't add up.'

The Princess stopped walking and then looked straight at Evan before asking him.

"Evan...what does this magic circle do?"

"It uses the power of the World Law of Evolution to increase your Race Breed.

Long story short, when it's done with you, you'd go from 'Human' to 'High Human'."

"...to think such a thing exists."

Heather did not know if it was even possible for one to increase their Race Breed so easily. The only situations she had heard of such happening was when one was going from the Epic to the Legendary Level or Legendary to Sovereign. This was usually done with the aid of catalysts or after spending years stuck at the Peak of the previous Existence Level.

She had never heard of a magic circle or spell that increased one's Race Breed for free.
